Chapter 786: Chapter 786: Drip-Drip — Senior Citizen Card
Ji Yebai was displeased, very displeased, extremely displeased!
He glared at Qiao Nancheng like a ferocious evil spirit, "I don’t care if you are older than me, from now on you have to call me big brother!"
Ning Xixi was embarrassed, "You bully a sick person, do you have no shame?!"
"Humph!"
The more Ji Yebai thought about it, the more displeased he became. He crossed his arms and walked out. Ning Xixi had no choice but to follow and smooth down this demon’s fur.
After much effort to coax Ji Yebai, the two walked back hand in hand, and met a man and a woman coming from the opposite direction.
Ning Xixi stopped and asked in surprise, "Wen Sinian, what brings you to the hospital?"
Wen Sinian’s face was as handsome and dashing as ever, except there was a faint blue-black shadow under his eyes, and he looked very tired.
"My grandmother was hospitalized."
"I see, I wish her a speedy recovery."
"Thank you."
After exchanging a few words, Ning Xixi noticed the woman by his side.
Chestnut-colored long curly hair, eyebrows and eyes delicately drawn, red lips curved in a slight arc - the type of stunning beauty that captivates at first glance.
Wen Sinian took the initiative to introduce, "My fiancée, Xu Liuli."
Ning Xixi let out an "Oh," and they nodded to each other as a greeting.
Accidentally locking eyes with Xu Liuli, Ning Xixi’s heart skipped a beat - she felt as if she had seen those eyes somewhere before.
A subtle shine flowed through Xu Liuli’s eyes, her light tea-colored pupils slightly squinted, like a cat that was half-asleep.
That feeling of internal goosebumps and a chill down the spine was especially uncomfortable.
She averted her gaze, tilted her little face up, and said to Ji Yebai, "Let’s go."
"Okay."
Once Ning Xixi and Ji Yebai walked away, Wen Sinian frowned, "Do you know them?"
Xu Liuli chuckled coyly, "How could I, it’s our first meeting."
She discreetly glanced at Ning Xixi’s retreating figure, retracted her gaze and with a beaming smile, she took Wen Sinian’s arm, "Let’s go, we mustn’t keep grandma waiting."
Wen Sinian smiled, but his eyes hinted at indifference.
How could he agree to this arranged marriage if not for his beloved grandmother’s critical illness?
He chuckled bitterly to himself, Ning Xixi, it seems we are truly fated never to be together.
...
After visiting Qiao Nancheng, Cheng Youran packed up and prepared to go home.
Xiao Xichen approached eagerly, "You Ruran, let me take you."
"No need," Cheng Youran declined, "I can go home by myself."
"Aw, come on, let me take you, it’s not safe for you to go home alone~" Xiao Xichen annoyingly followed her, harassing her until she relented, exasperated, "Fine, fine, fine! Stop nagging, my head hurts!"
"Hehe."
"I’m taking the bus, have you, the great young master, ever taken one?"
"You Ruran, you really underestimate me! Of course, I have..." Xiao Xichen coughed, "never taken it. How do you take it, do you need to put in coins?"
Cheng Youran sighed and pulled out a bus card from her bag, "When we get on the bus, just swipe this card, and I’ll put in the coins."
They were in luck. Just as they got to the bus stop, a bus arrived. Cheng Youran got on first and dropped in one yuan.
Xiao Xichen curiously examined the layout of the bus while Cheng Youran reminded him, "Swipe the card!"
He caught on, swiped the card against the reader, and immediately, the loud, robotic female voice echoed through the bus:
"Ding Ding — Elderly card!"
In a moment, everyone on the bus and the driver turned to look at Xiao Xichen!
