Chapter 2

Shen Yi shook his head, put away his phone, bent down to pick up the cat that had been rubbing against his feet for a long time, smiled gently, and kissed the ginger-colored furball on the head indulgently to soothe it. The way the cat enjoyed it made Su Tang feel itchy inside.

Thank you for coming to accompany me. Can you drive?

Grandma chuckled and said, "Okay, okay... Come on, come on... You remember the Bo Ya Hospital, right?"

Grandma was dropped off at the entrance of the apartment building. Shen Yi sat in the passenger seat and reached out to set a destination on the GPS. It looked somewhat familiar. Su Tang took a few seconds to remember that this was the residential address Shen Yi had lost on her phone.

Su Tang shook her head. It was already past twelve o'clock at night, and it was almost time for dinner in the Eastern District. She was very hungry and punctual.

Will it delay your interview preparation?

Su Tang shrugged her shoulders and smiled calmly, "There's nothing much to prepare. This construction company is the best in several nearby cities. Their connections probably exceed the total population of Paris. There are only four spots available this time, and I definitely won't be selected. I'm just a little unwilling to give up. Since they invited me for an interview, I'll go and try my luck."

Hospital Ward, 15th Floor

After a moment of silence, following a slight sound of a closing door, I heard my grandmother's voice, which she was trying to keep low: "Tang Tang... Have you had your meal?"

Before the plane landed, Su Tang had only eaten one dinner. She wasn't hungry at all. She went to the bathroom and washed her body, which had been exhausted by an eleven-hour flight. Then she dragged her suitcase into the room her grandmother had prepared for her. She leisurely took out everything from the suitcase and tidied it up. After finishing, she looked up at the clock on the wall. It was almost eleven o'clock.

Grandmother has not come back yet.

Shen Yi gives a thumbs up to Su Tang.

Okay, wait for me a moment, I'll be right there.

After speaking, it suddenly dawned on me that she doesn't seem to be my biological grandmother.

Su Tang only realized at this moment that it was quite a challenging task to persuade someone who couldn't hear or speak. As long as he gently and stubbornly shook his head without responding, you would have no way to make any progress.

Complaining is just lip service. Sutang is really feeling sorry for her grandmother. Fortunately, she has graduated now. As long as she can find a decent job quickly, she can let her grandmother take a break and live a comfortable life.

Su Tang still insists, "There's a time difference. I definitely won't be able to sleep tonight, so I'll just watch TV at home."

I can't hear any sound at all, so I don't need these walls to block the noise. However, having a good view is important to me. I need to ensure that my line of sight is as unobstructed as possible, so that I can feel at ease living here.

It's not motion sickness... You should stay at home, be careful with water, electricity, and natural gas, go to bed early, and tomorrow your grandma will make delicious food for you when she goes back...

Shen Yilian nodded three times.

Su Tang dialed her grandmother's phone number and said, "Grandma, are you still in the hospital?"

Shen Yi was taken aback.

Su Tang started the car and said, "We agreed to go back to the hospital after finishing our meal."

Shen Yisong released his grandmother's arm and took out his cellphone from his pocket.

You watch TV first, I'll go cook, it'll be ready in a little while.

I'm hungry.

Grandmother frowned and gestured for a while, but Shen Yi remained unmoved. Soon, Grandmother was defeated and sighed, allowing the two younger generations to walk her to the parking lot, one on each side.

Su Tang frowned and looked around again. Walking inside the house, she roughly indicated the positions of the removed partitions with gestures. Shen Yi smiled and applauded for her.

Did you knock down several walls?

Shen Yi furrowed his brows and typed a line of text on his phone.

Su Tang secretly chuckled, how could there be such a delicate Cinderella...

The food in the hospital is not tasty, and the food outside is not clean.

Grandma sighed on the phone and said, "Xiao Yi is in the hospital. I will stay with him and won't be going back home tonight."

Grandma... I'll go to the hospital for you. You come back and rest.

Su Tang glanced at him angrily.

Shen Yi's house is located in the middle of the residential area, on the eleventh floor. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room is a complete river view. The basic layout structure is impeccable from the perspective of ventilation and lighting. However, Su Tang always feels something is a bit strange. After being led by Shen Yi to take a look around, Su Tang suddenly realizes when seeing the two sets of bay windows standing side by side in the spacious master bedroom and the bathroom enclosed by transparent curved glass.

Su Tang had to call her grandmother, who asked her to wait downstairs for a while. She waited for almost fifteen minutes until the elevator rang gently, and Shen Yi walked out of the elevator with her grandmother's arm.

Su Tang sent resumes to seven or eight units in City S before returning to China. The best company among them requested her to attend an interview tomorrow morning.

This kind of thing has never been said by Su Tang, because it is a reality that ordinary people take for granted and does not need anyone to emphasize it with language. It's just that Su Tang feels that Shen Yi is not within the range of ordinary people. She doesn't know what he does for a living, but the car he drives, the house he lives in, and even the level of the hospital room he stays in when he's sick all represent that he is a Very Important Person. Even if he is a deaf person, this reality should be far away from him. It's just that Su Tang feels that Shen Yi is not within the range of ordinary people.

Grandma wants you to go back to the hospital.

Su Tang decisively hung up the phone, grabbed her bag, and left.

He wants to go home ?

Grandmother is hesitating.

Su Tang nodded. Civil engineering in countries around the world treats women as men and men as livestock. When Su Tang was interning in France, she even drove construction vehicles. Shen Yi would dare to give her a bus to drive.

Um.

Looking at Shen Yi's expression, it seems like he is considering something. Su Tang smiled and added, "Being able to visit the houses designed by their company before the interview is more helpful than reading books all day. I have to thank you."

Su Tang is a bit hesitant, isn't it because she went to the airport to pick her up without having dinner...

Su Tang was at a loss, looking at the house that had been altered to be much too spacious. Unable to help herself, she said, "The floor area of this house is over 230 square meters, and it's still just one floor. The original layout of four bedrooms and two living rooms was just right. You've turned it into this, and just the living room, kitchen, and dining room alone take up nearly 100 square meters. The master bedroom is almost 70 square meters. Don't you feel like you're sleeping in a square when you go to bed at night?"

At the entrance of the sanatorium, you can always easily get a taxi at night. When Su Tang got in the car and mentioned going to Boya Hospital, the driver immediately started talking about the name "Boya" and went on to discuss poetry, songs, life philosophy, and talked for a full hour. Finally, reluctantly stopped the car at the entrance of the inpatient building of Boya Hospital.

Is it comfortable to be kissed by him?

This sanatorium is affiliated with Boya Hospital. Su Tang was often sick when she was a child. Every time she fell ill, her grandmother would take her to this hospital, to the extent that she has a deep impression of the smell of disinfectant in this hospital.

Grandma saw the words on the phone and immediately became anxious, "No need, no need..."

Shen Yi's car is the black SUV. Su Tang is driving. After Shen Yi helped Su Tang set up the GPS, he sat in the back with his grandmother.

Tang Tang, it's quite late. Please be careful on your way...

Su Tang occasionally glanced in the rearview mirror and saw him holding his grandmother's arm, leaning quietly beside her and smiling like a well-behaved large dog, almost sticking out his tongue and wagging his tail.

Welcome to visit, don't be polite.

Living, must live...Grandmother patted the hand of Shen Yiwan in her arm, "When I answered the phone, Xiaoyi just woke up and insisted on taking me down to pick you up..."

Su Tang pointed to the plaque and smiled as she nudged Shen Yi's eye, "I have an interview with this construction company tomorrow. Seeing the name of the company now makes me nervous. Isn't that pathetic?"

Su Tang frowned, "Motion sickness requires hospitalization?"

Su Tang looked at Shen Yi standing quietly beside her grandmother and said, "Thank you."

This doesn't look like someone who needs to be hospitalized for an illness...
