Is Chapter 302 a misunderstanding? A quick check will tell.

Qin Ce remained silent for a moment, then followed the doctor out. Once they were a distance away from the ward, the doctor asked, "What is your relationship to the patient?"

"grandson."

The doctor said, "The old man's health isn't very good. You need to be careful and make sure he doesn't get emotional."

"How so?"

"His age is what it is, and all his bodily functions are declining. In addition, he has many age-related diseases. A single cold could trigger various complications, which is no joke."

After listening, Qin Ce nodded and said, "I understand."

"There shouldn't be any problems now, right?"

The doctor pondered for a moment and said, "Hmm, it looks like there's nothing wrong, but your vital energy has been damaged, so you definitely won't be as strong as before."

“You weren’t here yesterday. When the old lady was brought in, she had a fever of 39.8 degrees Celsius. You have no idea how dangerous that was. Luckily, she was brought in in time.”

"You younger generation shouldn't just focus on making money and working; you should also take some time to consider the feelings of the elderly..."

The doctor rambled on for a long time before finally stopping and going to the ward to examine the old man.

Qin Yi asked Qin Ce in a low voice, "What did the doctor say to you just now?"

"nothing."

Qin Yi looked at him suspiciously. If he didn't want to say, fine, he could just ask the doctor later.

In the ward, the old man said to Shi Yi, "Xiao Yi, you've been here for so long. Go back and rest. All three of them are here, so you don't need to worry."

Shi Yi glanced at Qiao Xing beside her, nodded and smiled, "Okay, then I'll be going now. Remember to call me if you need anything."

"Go quickly."

Shi Yi picked up her things and left the ward, but Qin Yi stopped her after she had only taken two steps.

Why did the old man go out to celebrate the New Year?

Hearing his question, Shi Yi turned to look at the two brothers and said, "What's wrong? You don't think I encouraged Grandpa Qin to go, do you?"

Qin Yi's expression turned unnatural after his thoughts were exposed. He explained, "I was just asking about the situation, don't overthink it."

Shi Yi sighed and explained, "He wanted to go by himself. The night before last, after we finished dinner, he said that the house was too quiet and didn't feel like the New Year, so he wanted to go out for a walk."

“I accompanied him for a walk in the neighborhood for a while. He heard some young people say that there were many people and performances at the square for the New Year’s Eve celebration, so he wanted to go and watch too.”

“I tried to persuade him, but you all know how stubborn Grandpa Qin is. I couldn’t persuade him, so I could only go with him.”

Who knew that he would fall ill after returning from his trip? The day before yesterday morning, Shi Yi went to call the old man for breakfast, but there was no response after calling for a long time. When she pushed the door open, she found that he had a fever, so she immediately called an ambulance.

After Shi Yi finished speaking, she was still a little unhappy, "If it weren't for me, I don't know what would have happened to Grandpa Qin. You come back and question me. Aren't you heartless?"

Qin Ce remained expressionless and silent.

Qin Yi felt a little guilty and apologized to Shi Yi, "Okay, it was my fault. I didn't question you. I just asked you a question. You always overthink things."

"Hmph, wouldn't you overthink it if you were in my shoes?" Shi Yi was being a bit too forward, but she knew her limits and quickly added, "Fine, I'm just an outsider anyway, so it's understandable that you'd suspect me."

"But I haven't slept for a day and a night, so I'm going back to sleep now."

After she finished speaking, she walked between the two of them.

Qin Yi watched her walk away before turning back to Qin Ce and saying, "Brother, I feel that you still have some misunderstandings about Shi Yi."

Qin Ce had already taken out his phone and made a call, "Send me the surveillance footage from Shengli Community after 6 PM on January 25th, all the footage."

Qin Yi expressed his doubts about his behavior.

Qin Ce hung up the phone before answering him, "Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, we'll find out by checking."

"you……"

Qin Yi was speechless. He wondered who this person had inherited his paranoia from.

"If you have nothing else to do, stay here with me. I'm going back."

After saying this, Qin Ce left the hospital.

He drove back to the residential area, parked his car inside, and sat in the car, gazing into the distance, lost in thought.

Ten minutes later, a man in a suit walked over, knocked on the car door, and after receiving Qin Ce's permission, opened the passenger door and got in.

He handed the tablet to Qin Ce, "Young Master Qin, this is the surveillance footage. I've pulled up all the footage that captured the old man, and deleted the ones that didn't, to avoid wasting your time."

Qin Ce opened the video and quickly browsed through it.

The old man went out around eight o'clock to take a walk in the neighborhood, with Shi Yi by his side.

At the bend, two young men emerged, but because the surveillance camera had no sound, their conversation could not be heard.

Qin Ce pressed the pause button, zoomed in on the photo, and tapped the screen with his finger. "Find these two people."

Xing Jiu leaned over to take a look, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go right away."

He took the tablet, got out of the car, and then got into another black Volkswagen, driving it out of the residential area.

At the hospital, Qiao Xing was still apologizing to the old man.

The old man chuckled and said, "What's there to apologize for? Grandpa's alright, isn't he?"

"But you know, after you married that boy Xiao Ce, you're like water spilled from a cup. Think about how long it's been since you last visited your grandpa?"

"Grandpa, I'm so sorry. After you're discharged from the hospital, come stay with us. Or I can come stay with you and keep you company every day."

These words made the old man laugh heartily. "Alright, Grandpa was just joking. You two young people should live your lives well and try to give Grandpa a great-grandson as soon as possible."

Qiao Xing blushed upon hearing this. "Grandpa, why are you saying this?"

"Then what else is there to say? A married couple, isn't this all there is to it?"

Qiao Xing was finding it difficult to continue the conversation.

Just as the two were talking, the cell phone on the cabinet rang. Qiao Xing quickly changed the subject, "Grandpa, someone is calling you."

"Could you take a look at this for me? It's probably another New Year's greeting. My phone has been ringing non-stop these past few days."

Qiao Xing took the phone and handed it to him. He glanced at it and saw that the caller ID showed Qin Liang.

His surname is Qin, could he be Qin Ce's father?

The old man's smiling face instantly fell when he saw the caller ID.

He hesitated for a moment, but still chose to answer the phone.

"What are you doing?"

"Dad, I heard you're sick and hospitalized. Is it serious?"

The old man asked suspiciously, "How did you know?"

"So it's true? Look at you, at your age, you insist on living alone. It's so far away, I can't take care of you even if I wanted to. People who don't know you think you don't want to see me, but they might think I'm disgusted by you."
