The old woman couldn’t let Su Manman leave his sight for even a moment.

Su Manman was helpless as well. But she had no choice... With such a doting grandmother, what else could she do? She could only give in...

Shi Hanchu hadn’t visited her that week either. However, he kept his promise of video-calling Su Manman. He would call her every day at 9:30 sharp. After the video call ended, he kept reminding Su Manman to rest.

To Su Manman, this was already an immense improvement.

Su Manman knew that wooing Shi Hanchu would be a long process because he still held Jiang Mingzhu in his heart. So, she wasn’t worried.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

During her stay at the hospital, Su Manman had eaten bland, unappetizing porridge for ten days in a row...

Thankfully, her sweet video call with Shi Hanchu every day could make her forget about the flavorless porridge.

The Fu family went over to get her discharged from the hospital. Su Manman sat on the bed while playing games on her phone. Old Madam Fu cut fruits for Su Manman to eat...

“Little sweetheart, have some fruits!” Old Madam Fu said to Su Manman.

“Grandma, leave it here. I’ll eat later...” Su Manman focused on her game.

“It’s been a week and you always say that. You have eaten none of the fruits Grandma peeled for you. Is that game more important than Grandma? Grandma is going to get angry!”

Old Madam Fu looked like she was going to pout and be angry. She was simply too adorable.

Su Manman glanced at Old Madam Fu from the corner of her eye. The little old lady looked incredibly adorable.

She smiled and ate the fruit Old Madam Fu brought to her mouth, her brows slightly furrowed... Why was it so tasteless like the plain porridge?

“What’s the matter? Doesn’t it taste good?” Old Madam Fu asked.

“There’s no taste at all!” Su Manman said. “Grandma, who bought this fruit? Were they scammed?”

Old Madam Fu cut a piece and tasted it. “But it’s very sweet!”

Su Manman: “?”

Seeing Su Manman’s disbelief, Old Madam Fu cut another piece and handed it to her. “Try it again...”

She felt like she was chewing wax.

Su Manman was speechless.

“Grandma, don’t tell me you’re taking revenge on me because I’ve been focusing on my games and not on you? It tastes like wax! There’s no taste at all... just like the bland porridge I’ve been eating every day!” Su Manman frowned.

“What bland porridge! The porridge I sent you every day has all sorts of herbs and meat. How can it taste bland?”

Su Manman: “?”

Was this for real?

Old Madam Fu’s face gradually turned pale as she hurriedly called the doctor over...

Su Manman had lost her sense of taste!

Su Manman saw how serious the old lady looked and couldn’t help but feel shocked.

Su Manman, who was supposed to be discharged that day, was no longer discharged. Old Madam Fu was demanding the hospital to come up with an answer.

After discussing for a long time, the doctors concluded that Su Manman’s taste buds had malfunctioned, and it was probably related to the blood clot in her head. The blood clot hadn’t completely decreased yet, so they still had to wait and see. Her taste buds would probably recover after the blood clot was fully gone...

After the doctor said this, Su Manman and Old Madam Fu felt relieved.

“It’s okay, Grandma, don’t worry! It’ll be fine once the blood clot is gone. But let’s agree that you can’t prank me just because I don’t have any sense of taste. You might just get the kitchen to make me tasteless food!”

Old Madam Fu glared at Su Manman. “When have I ever tricked you? You’re just spouting nonsense!”

Although Old Madam Fu pretended to reprimand Su Manman, she felt more relaxed.

“To be safe, you should stay in the hospital! Mom...” Su Manman’s mother grabbed Su Manman’s shoulder and discussed it with Old Madam Fu.

Old Madam Fu nodded repeatedly. “That’s right, that’s right. It’s still safer in the hospital! Nothing is more important than Manman’s sense of taste right now! If you feel anything while staying in the hospital, the doctor can check on you at any time!”

But Old Madam Fu couldn’t bear to part with her granddaughter. After weighing the pros and cons... she decided not to return home.

Su Manman was afraid that the old lady would find it tough living at the hospital, so she got Dong Dong to book a hotel two streets away from the hospital for Old Madam Fu.

The news of Su Manman losing her sense of taste quickly reached Shi Hanchu’s assistant, Little Song.

Since Little Song already knew, of course, Shi Hanchu also knew.

When Shi Hanchu arrived at the hospital that night, his face was full of worry, but Su Manman was still her usual cheerful self. She smiled at Shi Hanchu. “It’s okay, the doctor said that my taste buds would probably recover after the blood clot is gone. Your expression is so dark, it was as if it’s already set in stone that my taste buds will never recover in this lifetime!”

Shi Hanchu remained silent with a straight face.

“Besides, isn’t this pretty convenient? If I can’t taste anything, I wouldn’t be tempted by those delicacies and won’t have a hard time to restrain my appetite...”

“You shouldn’t have taken away Mingzhu’s father’s music sheets!” Shi Hanchu’s mellow voice was deep. “You clearly knew how dangerous it was. You couldn’t handle it by yourself!”

Su Manman looked at the solemn-looking Shi Hanchu and smiled as she said, “So, you know how much I love you, right?”

These words weren’t a joke to Su Manman.

But in Shi Hanchu’s eyes, Su Manman didn’t take this matter seriously.

Shi Hanchu looked at Su Manman calmly, deeply... and coldly.

He didn’t like Su Manman taking her life lightly, thinking that she had everything under her control.

Su Manman was familiar with Shi Hanchu and knew that he was really angry.

She reached out to tug at Shi Hanchu’s sleeve. “Don’t be angry! I was just kidding!”

Shi Hanchu looked at Su Manman solemnly and sat down on the coffee table opposite her.

Their gazes met. Shi Hanchu lowered his voice and said to Su Manman, “In the future, don’t ever risk your life again! Especially for Jiang Mingzhu!”

Su Manman nodded. “There shouldn’t be anything else in the future. There’s only Du Lingyang’s trial left! After that, Jiang Mingzhu’s matter would be completely settled!”

Su Manman pushed her luck and smiled, grabbing Shi Hanchu’s wrist. “Are you concerned about me more than Jiang Mingzhu?”

“Jiang Mingzhu... is someone who doesn’t like to owe others! She’d feel uneasy if you get into an accident because of her! I don’t want her not being able to rest in peace, especially when... the person who did all these for her is someone who has little to do with her!”

The smile on Su Manman’s face froze. She retracted her hand that had just touched Shi Hanchu’s firm wrist.

“Do you understand?” Shi Hanchu asked.

Su Manman pursed her lips. “So... you didn’t say all this because you were worried about me?”

Shi Hanchu remained silent, staring at Su Manman.

“You’re just afraid... that Jiang Mingzhu would feel uneasy because of me?” When Su Manman said this, she really didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

She was really thankful to Shi Hanchu for having her in his thoughts...
