Chapter 55 - If one's heart does not move, there will be no pain

Zhu Jiangci had personally witnessed the current situation of Su Qiao An, he knew that the reality was not what he had judged, and she had conceded, that was why he was able to be a little more amiable to her, even though he felt that he owed her.

Just because he could endure Su Qiao An's cold words for the first time did not mean that he could endure Su Qiao An's repeated sneers.

With that, Zhu Jiangci slammed the chopsticks down onto the table, "Su Qiao An, don't kick your nose!"

Su Qiao An laughed at himself. Could it be that she didn't even have the qualifications to reject him?

She did not want to argue with Zhu Jiangci, she just did not understand what Zhu Jiangci was trying to do! Since things had gotten to this point, there was no need for him to get close to him, right?

At such a critical juncture, she had already made up her mind to emigrate, but when the matter of the Grandma Chen came to her ears, she was once again held back.

Adding on that, it was as if Zhu Jiangci's brain had been submerged in water, and he uncharacteristically broke into her world continuously. Su Qiao An was also very anxious.

She was afraid that she would lose because of that little change that Zhu Jiangci gave her and that she would waver. She was afraid that some unnecessary expectation would arise from him.

She would not be disappointed if she did not have any expectations. She did not want to try again as she slowly walked into the abyss of despair.

"You can leave now …" Su Qiao An sighed silently and hardened his heart, wanting to drive him away from his home and out of his own world.

Hearing that, Zhu Jiangci's brows turned cold, he looked at the still steaming dishes on the table and stood up straightforwardly.

He slammed the door and left. Su Qiao An was still standing at the dining table, a little stunned.

After a long while, Su Qiao An pressed on the sore spot on his forehead and fell down on the small stool, exhausted.

Since she had already made her choice, she shouldn't be so distant with Zhu Jiangci anymore.

Zhu Jiangci was like a poppy to her, addicting his the moment he came into contact with him. Once he came into contact with him too much, she would only become as ignorant and ignorant as he was in the past.

For the past few years, they had been in tacit understanding. They had lived their own lives and had never disturbed each other, much less interfered with each other. Thus, it was fine as long as they remained as they were.

If the heart does not move, then it will not hurt.

… ….

After Su Qiao An angrily drove Zhu Jiangci away, she had not seen him again.

She did not have time to think about Zhu Jiangci, as most of her days were spent in running around the hospital, but fortunately for her, Grandma Chen's condition had improved, and she had regained her consciousness. It was just that her body was paralyzed from the aftereffects of a stroke, and she was unable to move half her body, so she needed someone to take care of her.

After staying in the hospital for half a month, Su Qiao An asked the doctor about this. The doctor said that Grandma Chen could leave the hospital, but he had to go to the hospital to examine it on time.

On the day she was released from the hospital, she borrowed Chen Wei's car to drive to the hospital, and together with the two guards, they struggled to move Grandma Chen to a car.

The old house was too far away from the city center, and its environment was not too good. After considering many factors, Su Qiao An decided to rent a room in the city center.

Just as the car arrived at the entrance to the rented apartment, Su Qiao An was stopped by an uninvited guest.

She looked at the man who had opened the passenger door and got in. She couldn't help but ask, "Are you free?"

Zhu Jiangci looked at her coldly, "The old man wants you to come back with me."

"Then why don't you ask the Forest Assistant to give me a call …" Why did he come here himself?

Zhu Jiangci looked at her coldly, "You talk too much nonsense."

"..." Su Qiao An choked. Since the car behind was starting to honk its horn impatiently, she endured the anger and drove into the underground parking lot.

When Su Yun got off the carriage, he looked at Zhu Jiangci who was at the side and sighed silently.

Only after taking out the wheelchair from the trunk did he help Grandma Chen remove the seat belt on the special seat.

She couldn't really count on a young master like Zhu Jiangci to come and wait on others. Since she couldn't use her already, Su Qiao An had to bite the bullet and go on his own.

Suddenly, his arm sank.

The hand that was pulling her arm was powerful, causing Su Qiao An to stumble back two steps.

Seeing that Zhu Jiangci was actually willing to condescendingly lower himself to serve someone that had nothing to do with him, Su Qiao An was stunned.

"Which floor?" Zhu Jiangci asked her, and didn't even look at her.

Su Qiao An reflexively replied, "20."

After a while, Su Qiao An came back to reality. Zhu Jiangci had already pushed everyone to the elevator and waited for them to get in. She quickly locked the car door and followed suit.

He didn't know what was going on with Zhu Jiangci, but it was as if he had suddenly become a different person. Not only was he not going to mock and ridicule her like he did in the past, he even helped her serve the Grandma Chen and lifted his up.

When Su Qiao An pushed Grandma Chen back into the room and helped her wipe her hands and feet carefully, she finally left the bedroom.

When she came out, she saw Zhu Jiangci standing by the french window with his back facing her. She was startled for a moment, and then she uncomfortably opened her mouth, "Earlier … "Thank you."

"You don't have to thank me. The reason I'm helping you is because you helped Ke Er." Zhu Jiangci turned around, his eyes was Wen Mo.

Oh, then his actions now can be explained. Zhu Jiangci's meaning is that all he has done now is to repay kindness.

Seriously … To think that she had even foolishly held a trace of expectation for Zhu Jiangci.

Su Qiao An was silent, the doorbell broke the eerie silence.

She glanced at Zhu Jiangci and saw that he was standing beside the window expressionlessly. She stopped looking and turned to open the door.

"Hello, Miss Su."

"... "Hello." Su Qiao An suspiciously looked at the middle-aged woman who was about thirty years old, "You … What business do you have with me? "

"I asked her to come." Zhu Jiangci's voice came out from inside the house. Su Qiao An was stunned for a moment before he turned and let her in.

The lady was very respectful to Zhu Jiangci, "Chu Shao."

"Hmm, from now on, you will be in charge of taking good care of the old man in the house." Zhu Jiangci instructed.

"Don't worry, I will definitely do my best."

… ….

What was there to not understand? Zhu Jiangci had found a specialized nanny for the Grandma Chen behind her back. The nurse who had helped the hospital previously had already resigned and returned home.

Seeing that Su Qiao An was still in a daze, Zhu Jiangci frowned: "Why are you still standing here?"

She was a little stupefied, and foolishly glanced at him. Zhu Jiangci's brows gradually revealed signs of impatience, "Go and change, and head back to the Old Manor right now."

If Zhu Jiangci did not mention this, Su Qiao An would have forgotten about this. Why would Zhu Shixiong look for them again?

After Su Qiao An changed his clothes, he followed suit.

On the way back to the old house, Zhu Jiangci did not make a sound, while Su Qiao An maintained silence.

The car drove into the old house. The moment they got out of the car, the two of them entered the house one after the other.

Seeing Zhu Shixiong sitting up straight in the living room, Su Qiao An obediently called out, "Dad."

"You even know to call me Dad!" Zhu Shixiong said with a cold face and a harsh tone, "I think you are all lawless now! "They don't take me seriously at all!"
