Mnie returned to her senses. She nodded slightly and said, “You don’t have to go through such trouble if you don’t have time.”
She stared at the nt in the corner and continued, “If you do this, my grandpa will overthink it.”
“Overthink what? Didn’t you ask me to go?” Eugene clicked his tongue and opened the door. He walked into his apartment and reminded Mnie impatiently, “Next time, think about the consequences before youe to me. You’re so troublesome.”
Immediately after, Eugene mmed the door shut.
Mnie touched the takeout bag. The food was already cold.
She stood there motionlessly for a moment before she threw the takeout into the trash can and returned home.
Albert stayed in the hospital for around three days before the doctor gave the green light for him to be discharged.
Mnie especially went to pick her grandfather up because she knew that he must be bored after staying in the hospital for a few days.
Albert held Mnie’s hand and shook his head. “I told you I was fine, but you insisted that I stay in the hospital.”
Mnie was packing his suitcase as she said, “I will only feel more at ease this way.”
Albert smiled and opened the door to the ward, only to see a youngdy struggling to push a wheelchair with a middle–aged man in it. The man in the wheelchair had a cast on his right leg that looked very bulky.
Albert frowned and stepped forward to help. Vi raised her head and smiled sweetly at him, ” Thank you.”
Mnie happened toe out after packing her grandfather’s suitcase. She frowned when she saw her grandfather with Vi.
Albert spotted Mnie and waved to her. “Mel,e here and help this girl.”
Vi was also stunned to see Mnie. “Mnie, why are you here?”
Mnie stepped forward, took the wheelchair from Vi, and turned the corner with ease.
“Grandpa, I’ll take you back first.” Mnie did not want to interact much with Vi in front of her grandfather, so she returned the wheelchair to Vi, took the suitcase, and left.
“Mnie.” Vi stopped her and said hesitantly, “Eugene went to get the medical report. He’s on the way back now. You can ask him to help you with your suitcase.”
Vi sounded concerned, but Mnie knew that Vi was showing off that Eugene was hers.
Just as Mnie was about to refuse, Eugene had already arrived.
As soon as Vi saw him, she waved and said, “Eugene,e and help Mnie. It’s hard for her to carry such a big suitcase alone.”
“Eugene?” Albert was still standing nearby. He frowned and looked between Vi and Eugene. He had a feeling that something was wrong.
Vi noticed Albert’s gaze, so she carefully hugged Eugene’s arm and shook it. “Eugene, this old man turns out to be Mnie’s grandfather. He helped me just now.”
Eugene looked at Mnie’s grandfather, nodded to him, and asked, “Are you getting discharged today?”
Albert did not answer the question. Instead, he nced at Vi and asked Eugene in a low voice, “Eugene, what is your rtionship with this girl?”
Albert was referring to Vi.
Mnie also looked at Eugene, waiting for his answer.
“Vi is my girlfriend.” Eugene’s expression was unchanged.
Mnie looked at him and withdrew her gaze. ‘What was I expecting just now? Did I expect Eugene to say that Vi has nothing to do with him?‘
Mnie closed her eyes in silence for a moment. When she opened her eyes, she calmly picked
up
the suitcase and held her grandfather’s arm. “Let me take you home first.”
However, the old man simply shook off her hand. He still maintained hisposure, even though he wanted to lose his temper.
Albert looked at Eugene and asked, “When did you and Mel break up?”
