Chapter 1289: Chapter 1289: They Didn’t Even Tell Me About Such a Big Thing

"Mr. Jian, when exactly can I be discharged from the hospital?" Mu Yi asked after being brought back to the hospital by Jian Dan.

"It shouldn’t take many more days. Just hang in there a bit longer!

Besides, haven’t I already told you not to call me Mr. Jian when we’re not at the company?"

"Oh! Alright! Jian!"

"That’s better! Here, have an apple!" Jian Dan handed a peeled apple to Mu Yi.

Mu Yi looked at the apple being handed over but did not reach out to take it, instead staring blankly at it.

"What are you doing? Is this apple that fascinating? You’re staring so intently at it. It’s just a normal apple, nothing special!" Jian Dan turned the apple 360 degrees in her hand but couldn’t find anything unusual about it.

"No, I’m just not used to it. This is the first time someone has taken care of me when I’m sick, peeling an apple for me!"

"The first time? What about your family?" It was then that Jian Dan remembered that she had indeed never heard Mu Yi talk about his family.

"I don’t have any family!" Mu Yi’s eyes dimmed.

"No family?"

"I don’t need a family. Since the day I became aware, I haven’t had a family. I’ve survived till today all by myself, so having a family or not, doesn’t matter to me."

"I’m sorry, okay?"

"Why are you sorry?"

"Did I bring up your painful memories?"

"Heh~ Not at all, I told you I don’t care!

Although Mu Yi verbally said he didn’t care, his facial expression was filled with indifference, yet Jian Dan could still sense a subtle sadness emanating from him.

It must be because he has hidden his true emotions for too long, so much so that he himself has started to believe it.

"Mu Yi, do you know what’s the advantage of being my friend?"

"What?"

"Being my friend means more than just being friends."

"Huh?"

"Friends as well as family!" Jian Dan spoke earnestly.

"I..."

"Don’t say you don’t care, okay? Now I consider myself part of your family, so if you say it doesn’t matter, that really would make me sad!

And more..." Just when Jian Dan was about to say something else, her phone rang "Granny?"

"How dare you grow so independent after getting married, not telling Granny anything?" A voice of anger came from Granny on the phone.

"What? Granny, what are you talking about?" Jian Dan was utterly confused.

"You’re still trying to hide it from me?"

"I am not! But what exactly is it about?"

"What is it about? Humph, come back to Li Garden right now, I want you to explain it to me in person!" After that, she hung up the phone.

"Hello~ Hello~ Granny..." Jian Dan called out for a while, but all that answered her was the beep of the phone hanging up "Mu Yi, something came up and I have to leave now, but don’t worry, I will sort your dinner out in advance."

"It’s okay, you can go ahead with your matters! I can manage on my own!"

"Haven’t I told you? You’re not alone anymore, stop saying you can manage on your own, okay?

I really have to go now, I will come back tomorrow!" Jian Dan grabbed her bag and hurriedly left the hospital room.

Mu Yi watched the hospital room door being shut by Jian Dan, and blankly spaced out for quite a while...

After leaving the hospital, Jian Dan sped back to Li Garden because it had been a long time since Granny had been this angry.

"Granny, Granny I’m here..." Upon returning, Jian Dan ran into the house without even locking the car properly.

(Even if the car is not locked, it will automatically lock once the key is a certain distance away.)

"You naughty lass, come here and sit down!" Granny called Jian Dan over while sitting on the sofa.

Jian Dan hurried over, seeing Granny’s expression, she knew Granny was really angry "Granny, maybe I should just stand!"

"Sit down when I tell you to sit down!"

"Oh! Okay!" Jian Dan immediately sat down without any hesitation.

"How dare you hide such a big matter from me?"

From the moment Jian Dan received the call from Granny, she had been thinking about what significant event had recently happened, but despite thinking hard, she could not figure out what had made Granny so angry.
