Chapter 34: Acknowledging the Benefactor
It was inevitable that it would be boring to stay in the ward all the time. Lin Yilan helped Huo Juncheng sit on the wheelchair, and the two of them went to the park inside the hospital to bask in the sun and get some fresh air.
The Huo family also holds shares in this hospital, and has invested a lot of money in infrastructure construction and talent recruitment. In recent years, it has become the leading hospital in the city. The hospital covers a large area, and a small park inside it was specially designed.
"I told you that you shouldn't always handle work in the ward. Look how nice the sun is outside." Lin Yilan is not the type of person who can stay indoors.
Huo Juncheng has a wealthy family and is very busy. Even after being admitted to the hospital, he still works non-stop, which really gives Lin Yilan a headache.
It was not easy to persuade him to leave the ward and go for a walk in the small park, but he still acted like going to the park was a waste of time.
"What's so interesting about this park?" Huo Juncheng looked around. There was no structure or design worthy of his approval. It was just a simple park. Even the plants in it were not famous ones. Most of them were Chinese medicinal herbs.
Lin Yilan was pushing Huo Juncheng's wheelchair from behind. The path in the park was very flat, with trees and flowers on both sides. The sun was not very strong, and the breeze was gentle. Lin Yilan squinted her eyes in comfort.
"This little park isn't as good as ours in the mountains, but it's still decent. Don't set your sights too high!"
"Just take a look around and go back." Since Lin Yilan liked it, Huo Juncheng let her go.
The two of them walked and strolled in this small Chinese-style park. The sunlight shone on them through the shade of the trees, which was also a very beautiful picture.
However, such a beautiful picture was still disturbed by someone. Although the two people walking on the road would attract other people's attention from time to time because of their outstanding looks, the old lady behind them kept following them and watching them, making it impossible for Lin Yilan to ignore it.
Lin Yilan poked Huo Juncheng and moved her mouth slightly: "Huo Juncheng, is that old lady next to you your enemy?"
The voice was so soft that only the two of them could hear it.
Huo Juncheng sat in his wheelchair with a slightly furrowed brow. However, his icy face showed no fear at all. "If she were my enemy, she would have acted quickly, stabbed me, and then ran away."
"That makes sense," Lin Yilan agreed, then she moved her lips again, "Then why does she follow us and always look at us? It's so strange."
I originally came to the park to enjoy the scenery and get some fresh air, but I ended up being stared at by this old lady all the time. She almost walked with her hands and feet unsteadily, and she hasn't been fighting or making enemies outside recently.
When Lin Yilan was wondering, the old lady suddenly approached, and scared Lin Yilan so much that she tightened her grip on the wheelchair handles.
To be honest, Lin Yilan is not afraid of those vicious and evil people at all, because she can often solve problems with her fists, but Lin Yilan feels a sense of awe towards some kind and gentle old ladies.
"Old man, I don't know you." Lin Yilan stuttered and didn't move forward, causing Huo Juncheng to stop with her.
The old lady also looked very kind, with wrinkles and weather-beaten face, but her eyes were clear and bright. Her gray hair and some age spots showed her age, but she was not dressed like a sick person.
He was carrying a small bag, was short and a little hunched, and was holding a thermos in his hand. He must have come to the hospital to visit relatives.
The old lady smiled very kindly, and compared with the old lady of the Huo family, she was more down-to-earth. She looked at Lin Yilan with a gentle gaze: "Little girl, did you help a little nurse a few days ago?"
Lin Yilan was still a little confused, but Huo Juncheng, who was sitting in a wheelchair, already understood.
"She was just a young nurse who was almost beaten by a bald man." Seeing that Lin Yilan was confused, the old lady gave some more hints.
Lin Yilan understood as soon as she heard it: "Oh oh oh, I remember now."
"Remember now, I am the grandmother of that little nurse. Thank you so much that day. If it weren't for you, our Xiaoman would have suffered!" The old grandmother was not shy. She grabbed Lin Yilan's small hand with her old and warm big hand and said many words of thanks very enthusiastically.
After a while, Lin Yilan waited until the old man calmed down and then pulled her hand back. After the three of them came under a big tree, Lin Yilan asked the doubts in her heart.
"Then how did you recognize me, old man?" Lin Yilan asked politely.
The old man smiled as he sat on the chair and replied, "Xiao Man said you are good-looking, and your wife is also good-looking, but her legs are a little inconvenient. I happened to see her when I was walking this way. It's really hard to find her, so I'm lucky."
In fact, the aesthetic concepts of the elderly and today's children are really different. The key point is that Xiaoman said that Enren's wife always has no expression on her face and looks rather fierce. Based on this feature, she followed her for a long time before she dared to confirm it.
But the old man is not so unemotional that he would say all these things directly.
"So that's how it is. Your granddaughter really praised me. My fiancé is handsome, but I'm far behind him." It was rare for someone other than Huo Juncheng to come and chat with her, so she was quite excited.
Huo Juncheng glanced at Lin Yilan while sitting in the wheelchair, but the other person's eyes were not on him, but on the old man.
"Oh, what are you talking about? If you were in our country, people who wanted to meet you would trample down the door of your house." The old man looked at Lin Yilan with a reproachful look, but his hand was still tightly holding hers.
In fact, they are a perfect match, but the benefactor's wife always has a gloomy face and looks unfriendly.
"I saw you were carrying something in your hand. Are you here to see your granddaughter?" Huo Juncheng spoke for a rare moment.
The old man finally woke up from his dream, let go of Lin Yilan's hand and slapped his thigh: "If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. I came to find Xiaoman to give her something. My memory is not good at my age. I forgot my own business when I met you."
Picking up his things, the old man repeatedly expressed his gratitude, which was not enough. He kept asking where Huo Juncheng's ward was and said he wanted to send something over.
Lin Yilan's IQ suddenly came online. She kept silent about the ward and sent the old lady away.
"Good performance." Huo Juncheng praised in a good mood.
Later, Huo Juncheng was discharged from the hospital after recuperating there for a short time.
Although her legs had not fully recovered, some other minor wounds on her body had healed, so there was no reason for her to stay in the hospital any longer. The most important thing was that Lin Yilan really could not stay in the hospital any longer.
