What has Chapter 973 already figured out?
Qin Fei blocked her way and asked arrogantly, "Do you know my mother?"
Xiao Xiao looked at the girl in front of her. She knew that she was from the Qin family and that she was Wang Yu's daughter.
A pampered and privileged young lady.
However, Qin Fei did not know her.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Qin Fei impatiently urged, "I'm asking you a question! Do you know my mother?"
Xiao Xiao admitted, "Yes."
Qin Fei looked Xiao Xiao up and down and said disdainfully, "You look like a country bumpkin. How could you know my mom? She must have something else to ask you for, right?"
Xiao Xiao didn't answer Qin Fei's question, but instead asked, "Is there anything else?"
Seeing her attitude, Qin Fei immediately said with dissatisfaction, "What are you pretending for? I'm asking you, did my mother look for you because of Qiao Xing? You and Qin Ce are getting so close, it must be on purpose, right?"
Qin Fei's intelligence was unusually sharp for once.
But this was just her guess.
When she realized that Xiaoxiao looked like Qiaoxing, she simply thought it was just her imagination.
But when I turned around, I saw Wang Yu and Qin Fei on the balcony.
She suspected that Xiaoxiao and Wang Yu's acquaintance was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Xiao Xiao pursed her lips and didn't say anything.
Qin Fei knew she had guessed most of it correctly.
"Don't worry, I'm not here to bully you. I don't care what my mom makes you do, I'm just here to tell you that I also really hate Qiao Xing."
Xiao Xiao looked at her and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Qin Fei crossed her arms and said, "You just want to climb the social ladder by marrying Qin Ce, right? I have a way."
Xiaoxiao said, "I'm not interested in your method."
She finished speaking and prepared to leave.
Qin Fei grabbed her arm. "If you don't listen to me, I'll tell Qin Ce about this! Even my mother might not be able to protect you then. Think about it."
Xiao Xiao felt that Qin Fei was simply unreasonable, but she also knew that Qin Fei would keep her word.
No matter how unwilling she was, she had no choice but to comply with the young lady's wishes.
"Speak, what do you want?"
Qin Fei said smugly, "Don't worry, I won't make you do anything immoral. I'll just make Qiao Xing suffer a little."
After a while, Xiaoxiao arrived at Grandpa Qin's ward. Qin Ce and Qiao Xing were both there. She stood at the door, took a deep breath, composed herself, and pushed open the ward door.
"Grandpa Qin, Mr. Qin, Miss Qiao," Xiaoxiao said to the three of them, carrying a bag. "These are some homemade snacks. They're not very sweet, so they won't be too cloying. Would you like to try some?"
Xiao Xiao nervously opened the box containing the snacks and cautiously asked the three of them questions.
Qiao Xing looked at the pastries in the box; they were exquisitely made and no different from those bought outside.
It's already quite remarkable that a girl can do these things.
Grandpa Qin praised him enthusiastically, saying, "You're so thoughtful. These pastries look delicious. I'll try some."
Xiao Xiao was a little excited and quickly handed the box over.
After tasting it, Grandpa Qin nodded in approval, "Yes, it's really delicious. I didn't expect you to be able to make these at such a young age. You're really amazing."
Xiao Xiao pursed her lips shyly, "I learned how to make it. I'm just glad Grandpa Qin doesn't mind. I know you usually like to drink tea, so this snack goes perfectly with tea."
"Okay, okay, thank you then."
Grandpa Qin said to Qin Ce and Qiao Xing, "Why don't you try some?"
Qin Ce never liked eating this kind of food, so he didn't touch it.
Qiao Xing felt that since it was someone's kind gesture, it wouldn't be right not to try it, so she ate a piece as well.
After Xiaoxiao brought over the snacks, she told Grandpa Qin about the precautions the doctor had mentioned in the past two days, and then tactfully left without disturbing their conversation.
Qiao Xing and Qin Ce sat with Grandpa Qin for a while longer. When they were about to go back, Qin Ce noticed that the weather outside wasn't very good.
"Please sit for a while, I'll go to the car and get you a coat."
Qiao Xing nodded, "Okay."
Only Qiao Xing and Grandpa Qin remained in the ward.
Qiao Xing noticed that Grandpa Qin was staring at her. She smiled and asked in confusion, "Grandpa, what's wrong? Why are you staring at me?"
Grandpa Qin's smile was enigmatic. He asked meaningfully, "Xingxing, what do you think of that girl, Xiaoxiao?"
Qiao Xing didn't know whether he should tell Grandpa Qin the truth.
If Xiaoxiao's feelings for Qin Ce weren't so blatant, she would indeed be a pretty good girl.
However, Qiao Xing wasn't petty enough to judge someone's character based on such a thing.
So she still said to Grandpa Qin, "I'm fine, what's wrong?"
Grandpa Qin sighed, "This young girl is good, but she's too scheming. If she didn't listen to others, she could probably achieve something. What a pity..."
Qiao Xing felt that there seemed to be another layer of meaning behind Grandpa Qin's words.
She had a vague guess in her heart.
Could it be that Grandpa Qin has already figured something out?
Qiao Xing didn't ask Grandpa Qin directly, but instead chatted normally, "Grandpa, I saw that you liked Xiaoxiao quite a bit, so why are you suddenly saying such things?"
Grandpa Qin chuckled, "You silly girl, still pretending to be stupid in front of me?"
Qiao Xing was stunned.
Grandpa Qin then said, "Someone as smart as you, can't you see that the girl is interested in Qin Ce?"
Qiao Xing looked at Grandpa Qin in surprise, "Grandpa, you knew all this?"
Grandpa Qin snorted, "I just don't want to get involved in your young people's affairs. It's not like I don't know anything. I saw through that girl the first day she arrived."
Qiao Xing admired Grandpa Qin's observational skills.
If she remembered correctly, Xiaoxiao had always behaved very well in front of Grandpa Qin.
As long as Grandpa Qin is around, she would never even glance at Qin Ce.
However, he could still tell that Xiaoxiao was interested in Qin Ce. Either Xiaoxiao's intentions were too obvious, or Grandpa Qin was too shrewd.
Grandpa Qin comforted Qiao Xing, "Don't worry, Xiao Ce is a sensible child. He would never do anything that he shouldn't do, and he would never do anything to hurt you or the child."
Grandpa Qin was worried that Qiao Xing would misunderstand Qin Ce, even though he knew that Qiao Xing was not the kind of irrational child.
But who can predict matters of the heart? Besides, Qiao Xing is pregnant, so it's hard to guarantee she won't overthink things.
But it was clear that Grandpa Qin was overthinking it, because Qiao Xing hadn't even considered that possibility.
She was curious about something else: "Grandpa, since you've already figured it out, why are you still willing to keep Xiaoxiao to take care of you?"
Grandpa Qin sighed and shook his head helplessly. "Because she was too anxious, a little abnormally anxious. She's a smart girl, but the things she did weren't smart. I bet someone said something to her behind her back."
