It wasnât old master Zhengâs voice?
Upon hearing this unfamiliar voice, a sense of suspicion surfaced in Jossiâs heart. After opening the door, she saw an old man and an old woman standing in front of the hospital bed.
As for old master Zheng, he was still in deep sleep and was snoring lightly.
Her face was still ruddy, and she looked much better than the last time she came.
Looking at this scene, joesse heaved a sigh of relief. Holding the fruit basket in her hands, the corners of her lips curled up and she said politely,ââHello, Grandpa and Grandma. May I know who you are ...â
She didnât seem to have seen these two at the last birthday party.
âYou must be sisi, right?â The old grandmaâs eyes were filled with love as she directly called out her name.
Even though she was puzzled, Joesâs face did not reveal any of it, and no emotions could be seen.
âThatâs right,â she said, nodding.âIâm Joes.â
After the old lady heard this, she smiled again.ââWeâre old man Zhengâs friends. We wanted to visit him but he fell asleep.â
Then, the old lady glanced at old master Zheng.
There was a look of disdain in his eyes, and even the old man standing by the side was the same. He deliberately stood in a position where joesse could not see him.
Did he really think that the two of them didnât know that he was pretending to be asleep?
......
After all, they had been on the battlefield together before, so they could tell if they were really sleeping or not.
There were many of old master Zhengâs spies in the hospital. When they noticed that Jossi had arrived, they immediately informed old master Zheng.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
If they were to chat with their friends, it would be easy to expose something.
So ... Old master Zheng chose to pretend to be asleep.
âI see. Thank you for your hard work, Grandpa and Grandma,â She smiled gently and had a gentle attitude.
Joes did not know about pretending to be asleep. After she finished speaking, she placed the fruit basket on the bedside table gently to prevent it from making any noise.
Old master Zheng lay on the bed without even lifting his eyelids. His acting skills were at the point of perfection.
Sisi, are you related to that kid from the Zheng family?â The old man raised his eyebrows and could not help but ask.
He had just finished speaking when old master Zheng rolled his eyes at him.
He actually brought up this topic in this situation. What was his intention?
However, old master Zheng also wanted to hear the answer to his question, so he didnât say anything after glaring at him.
She was still lying on the bed, acting as if she was really lying.
After hearing the old manâs words, the two ... No, the three of them turned to look at Joes.
Old master Zheng peeked a little and saw his granddaughter-in-lawâs troubled expression.
It seemed to be different from what he had imagined. He had imagined Joss to answer without hesitation that the two of them were engaged.
Old master Zheng could not help but feel a little disappointed.
A moment later, joesse glanced at old master Zheng, pursed her lips, and said with some difficulty,ââGrandma, Zeyi and I ... We are indeed a couple.
The wedding date is still under discussion and hasnât been decided yet, so Grandpa and Grandma, youâd better not believe these rumors. â
As soon as she finished speaking, she blinked her eyes.
Only the heavens knew how much courage it took for Qiao sisi toâ admit âher relationship with Zheng Zeyi.
If it wasnât for the fact that old master Zheng was here and she was worried that her cover would be blown, she would have just said that it was fine.
Moreover, she did not want to have anything to do with that hooligan Zheng Zeyi.
For now, they were just cooperating.
After hearing what joesse said, the eyes of the two grandpas and grandmas immediately lit up, and they were filled with the desire to gossip.
Even old master Zheng, who was lying on the bed, couldnât help but smile. It was a small smile, so he didnât have to worry about being discovered.
âSo thatâs how it is. I knew it. That kid from the Zheng family is not bad. You two are a golden couple.â The old grandma praised.
Jossi smiled in embarrassment at her kind expression.
In the next few minutes, the three of them chatted casually, mostly asking about her relationship with Zheng Zeyi.
For example, when did the two of them meet, how did they meet, and how they got together.
Even Joes, who was making up the story, was having a headache. After all, one lie would require countless lies to cover it up.
Not long after, she gave up struggling.
âGrandpa, grandma, I still have something to do at the company, so I wonât be staying any longer. If thereâs a chance next time, Iâll treat you to a meal.â Joes said with a smile.
It was indeed getting late. It was already past nine.
Over at Xing Yuan design, the companyâs employees had already started work, but she, the president, had not arrived yet.
âAlright, sisi, since youâre busy, we wonât keep you. Stay here for a while longer and weâll leave.â The old lady nodded.
And the old man said with a very deep meaning,ââSisi, if you have the time, come and visit elder Zheng more often.
Heâs in the hospital alone because of his poor health. Sometimes, he really doesnât have anyone to talk to. â
It looked like he had good intentions, but in reality, he was prepared to watch a good show.
Old master Zheng had just heard this when he reacted. If it wasnât for the fact that the situation didnât allow it, he would have spoken directly.
But now, he could only swallow all the words he wanted to say.
Upon hearing this, Joes agreed and immediately agreed,ââDonât worry, Grandpa and Grandma. Iâll definitely come and visit Grandpa Zheng when I have time.â
âYouâre a good child,â The old grandma was very pleased.
After greeting each other, Joes turned and left the ward. She closed the door gently and quickened her pace to leave the hospital.
He had to return to the company as soon as possible. There were still many things to deal with.
The ward was also in a mess.
As soon as Jossi left, old man Zheng lifted the blanket and sat up. He looked extremely aggrieved and did not know what to say.
Just now, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He really couldnât make bad friends.
Seeing that he didnât continue to pretend to be asleep, the old man found a seat and sat down. He smiled and said,ââWhatâs wrong? Youâre awake?â
âOld Deng, weâve known each other for decades. How could you ...â Old man Zhengâs face turned red.
âWe came to visit you. It hasnât been long. You pretended to be asleep after hearing the announcement. You didnât even let us know.â The old man criticized.
Hearing this, old master Zheng had nothing to say.
He was indeed in the wrong. He was worried that Joes would find out that he was pretending to be sick, so he did not tell them in time.
As a result, it resulted in the current situation.
The old lady at the side couldnât help but chuckle and said,ââAlright, elder Zheng, itâs time for you to explain the situation.
I saw that the little girl just now was a good person. Are you really sure sheâll be your granddaughter-in-law?â
