Chapter 398: Father-in-law

When Shen Zhuo asked, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and Wu Chen's eyes fell directly on Ruan Liqing.

Ruan Liqing replied lightly, "I'm overthinking it. I just reminded you that it's time to go back to work."

Moran stayed in the hospital early to accompany his grandfather. After lunch, Moran had to go to deliver meals to his grandfather and grandson.

It's almost time to have dinner with Shen Zhuo, and he has to drive.

Ruan Liqing still had no appetite, so she went out together after eating.

Moran was reluctant, "It's still raining lightly outside. You haven't recovered from your cold yet. What if it gets worse?"

"I'm feeling a little bored at home. It would be better to go out for a walk."

Moran had nothing to say, she had to go to Zaozao's house first to get something.

Shen Zhuo and Ruan Liqing were left to go out slowly. Shen Zhuo parked the car at the door, but there was still a distance of about ten meters.

The light rain was not heavy and could not be noticed unless you felt it carefully. Ruan Liqing did not take an umbrella and just prepared to take a few steps to get on the bus.

However, as soon as she stepped out of the door, she was covered in a wood-toned coat.

Shen Zhuo followed her, "Don't get caught in the rain."

He just took off his coat, and the clothes were still warm.

Ruan Liqing pulled her clothes and was not polite, but she still wanted to say a few words, "Amn's haute couture is ruined like this, and you are really willing to let it go."

As she spoke, she walked forward and stopped just in front of the passenger seat. Shen Zhuo opened the door before her and answered her calmly, "If you like it, I'll take you to buy it."

Ruan Liqing said: "I can't afford it?"

She was deliberately looking for trouble. Shen Zhuo knew it and didn't answer anymore, but closed the car door.

Ruan Liqing sat in the passenger seat and watched him come in.

He took off his coat, leaving only a thin shirt on him.

No matter how thin the raindrops are, falling on it will cause a few deep marks.

Ruan Liqing's eyes turned away from his shoulder without trace.

While waiting for Mo Lan to come back, she opened the storage box in front of her, took out a box of tissues and threw it to Shen Zhuo: "Wipe your clothes."

However, before Shen Zhuo could take it, Moran came back.

She was holding a bag in her hand, which contained everything Grandpa Zhao needed.

Perhaps because he was too anxious, Moran walked very fast, so his shoes were stained with a lot of mud.

Ruan Liqing caught a glimpse and originally wanted to remind her that after all, Shen Zhuo loved to be clean and would not tolerate others getting his car dirty.

However, Moran got into the car directly.

Ruan Liqing looked at Shen Zhuo subconsciously, but Shen Zhuo didn't seem to see him.

He took the tissue from Ruan Liqing's hand, but did not open it. Instead, he casually placed it on the center console next to him.

Ruan Liqing looked at him.

Shen Zhuo's brows paused slightly, and then he whispered: "Wipe it off later."

His voice was deep, and his tone seemed to be coaxing her.

His voice was so low that Moran in the back row didn't hear him.

Ruan Li snorted coldly and turned her head to the other side.

When he arrived at the hospital, Grandpa Zhao had just finished hanging the water and sat obediently next to him early in the morning.

Mo Lan took the rice bowl inside, while Ruan Liqing and Shen Zhuo were waiting outside.

The small hospital is very quiet, with not many people walking in the corridors.

Ruan Liqing could hear what Mo Lan was saying to Grandpa Zhao in the ward, and she could also hear Zaozao's crisp voice.

She was a little absent-minded.

But suddenly, someone caught my little finger.

Shen Zhuo rubbed the knuckles of her little finger with his index finger and said in a slow voice: "If you still feel uncomfortable, go downstairs and register."

Ruan Liqing calmly pulled her fingers back a little, then said, "No need."

Shen Zhuo's fingers quickly hooked up again. His fingers were slender and the joints were clear.

Ruan Liqing once compared with him, and his palm was much bigger than hers.

I feel very safe when holding hands.

The finger was hooked again, but this time it wasn't just the little finger, but the ring finger as well.

There are also a lot of calluses on Shen Zhuo's knuckles, probably from playing basketball and working out in the past.

He pinched Ruan Liqing's fingers repeatedly.

After all, he was in the hospital corridor, and Mo Lan was in the opposite ward, so he didn't dare to make any big moves and could only tease Ruan Liqing in a small way.

However, Ruan Liqing quickly took her finger back and her cell phone rang.

She took out her phone and raised her eyebrows.

It's Gu Yao.

They haven't contacted each other for a long time.

Shen Zhuo was right next to her, so he naturally saw it.

He stared at Ruan Liqing's cell phone, and then stood up after a moment: "I'm going to make a call."

After saying that, he left.

Ruan Liqing then answered Gu Yao's call.

Gu Yao didn't seem to expect that she would answer the phone. He paused and then said with a smile: "Long time no see."

Ruan Liqing muttered, "I haven't seen him yet."

Gu Yao paused for a moment, then sneered and said: "I'm being polite to you, why do you still take it seriously? Ruan Liqing, are your emotional intelligence so low now?"

His casual tone instantly diluted the unfamiliarity and awkwardness between the two of them.

Ruan Liqing gradually became more comfortable, and she asked Gu Yao, "It's midnight over there right now, why did you remember to call me all of a sudden?"

Gu Yao hummed and said, "Ajing sent me a message, saying that you are in Yunzhen now and are accompanying your uncle for a checkup."

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Gu Yao said, "I read uncle's report last time. There should be nothing wrong with it."

Ruan Liqing pinched her eyebrows. She was a little tired. "There are shadows on his lungs. The doctor advised me to take him to a big hospital for a checkup."

But now because of Shen Zhuo, it might be a bit difficult for Ruan Yuancheng to check.

And her guess was right. Ruan Yuancheng became stubborn and there was really nothing anyone could do.

After returning from the hospital, Mo Lan couldn't help but sigh when he thought of Grandpa Zhao's condition, and then turned to persuade Ruan Yuancheng to go to the hospital for a check-up quickly.

However, Ruan Yuancheng snorted with a stubborn temper: "Which hospital should I go to? I won't go!"

Mo Lan glanced at Shen Zhuo, who had just come in, and whispered: "Why don't we go there by ourselves instead of taking his car?"

It was said to be quiet, but the yard was so big and Shen Zhuo had good hearing, so he naturally heard all these words.

He paused for a moment, then turned around and entered the kitchen next to him.

Ruan Liqing was making soup inside. When she looked up and saw him coming in, she said in a calm tone: "What are you doing here?"

Shen Zhuo's expression remained unchanged as he took the spoon from her hand and said, "I'll do it."

His skills were indeed good, so Ruan Liqing didn't say anything and consciously gave him the position.

However, Shen Zhuo didn't just finish making the soup, he also made dinner for that night.

Mo Lan was reluctant at first, but Ruan Liqing persuaded him to go aside.

The only problem is that after Ruan Yuancheng knew that Shen Zhuo had cooked the dinner, he threw his chopsticks and left.

Ruan Liqing was not surprised. She took the chopsticks and said casually: "I told you, my dad won't accept it."

Shen Zhuo hummed, stretched out his hand to pick up the fish meat with chopsticks for Ruan Liqing, then frowned and said, "I'll take a look at other strategies."

Ruan Liqing looked sideways, "What strategy?"

Shen Zhuo said: "How can I make my father-in-law look at me more favorably?"
