Chapter 455: Chapter 456: Getting a Bit Hot

Chen Jianjun cheerfully laughed, "It’s already been bought, they won’t give me a refund."

"But we can’t waste money like this again next time!" Ma Xiulian sternly emphasized, before accepting the milk and sharing a bottle with Chen Dazhu.

Chen Jianjun casually grunted in acknowledgment, knowing that he’d still buy it next time.

After all, being filial to parents is a fundamental duty. How could it be considered a waste of money?

Then he handed a banana and a bottle of milk to the young woman on the neighboring bed, "Thank you for telling us where to buy milk."

"Oh, no need, no need." The young woman repeatedly waved her hands, refusing.

She had merely told them the location of the milk stand, there was no need to return the favor.

Although one bottle of milk was not expensive, she didn’t want to accept it as it would feel like she was taking advantage of others.

"No problem, just take it," Chen Jianjun said in a slightly firm tone, softened by the gentle clarity brought on by his daughter’s awakening. His voice was surprisingly intoxicating.

The woman felt her face heat up inexplicably and repeated in a soft voice, "Really, it’s not necessary."

Chen Jianjun didn’t insist anymore, but directly placed it on the bedside table next to her bed.

Even though the young woman was looking down, she could still see his action from the corner of her eye.

Showing a hesitant expression, she still thanked him softly, "Thank you."

"You’re welcome."

Without turning his head, Chen Jianjun asked his daughter who was happily drinking her milk, "Is it good?" His gaze filled with gentle adoration.

Helian Qiao closed her eyes contentedly, "It’s delicious! Daddy, you drink some too."

Chen Jianjun wiped the milk droplets from the corner of her mouth, "Alright, Daddy will drink some too."

When the young woman’s face cooled, she raised her head and gently smiled at Ma Xiulian, "You’re very lucky to have such a filial son."

He bought far too much milk than they could consume before it spoiled. It was clear he did it specifically for his parents to drink. But he only did so reluctantly, fearing that they won’t drink it. His thoughts were considerate and filial.

Thinking this, she snuck a glance at the tall and handsome Chen Jianjun, felt her cheeks warm uncontrollably, and quickly averted her gaze.

But her mind continued to spin uncontrollably.

Over these past few days, she had seen Chen Jianjun’s gentle affection toward his daughter, his filial respect toward his elders. She thought he was a good man.

And he was good-looking. Aside from his rural background, he met all her criteria for a spouse.

As for him being divorced and having a daughter, she didn’t mind. Not only could she afford to raise the child, she also liked the little girl, Guibao.

So at noon, when her family brought her lunch, she pulled her mom out to the corridor and asked in hushed tones, "Mom, what do you think of Chen Jianjun?"

Great men should be seized quickly or they’ll become someone else’s!

"Chen Jianjun?" Her mom looked confused.

Seeing this, the young woman reminded her, "The father of the little girl from the ward."

Her mom thought for a moment, "He seems fine."

The young woman’s face flushed, and she whispered, "I think he’s alright too."

Seeing the shy blush on her daughter’s face, her mother finally realized, "Are you crazy?! He’s a rural man!"

Country folk lacked even the most basic living security!

Their lives were spent farming for food, relying on mother nature for sustenance. If the weather refused to cooperate, hunger and freezing were commonplace!
