章 15: Grandpa

"Grandpa." Ye Qing Xin flashed a smile. Seeing that it was difficult for the old man to walk, Ye Qing Xin moved forward to support the old man. Their gazes met again and the smile on Grandpa's face stretched out until his eyes turned crescent.

Ye Qing Xin regretted that she did not ask too many questions about her grandparents. She could see that the previous Ye Qing Xin's relationship with her grandfather was very good.

Looking at the old man made her feel at ease. She had this urge of acting coquettishly with the old man. This feeling did not feel strange.

Ye Ting moved to take a good look at her. The look on his face changed once his gaze fell on the gauze around her forehead as well as around her arms. His heart was in distressed.

"How are you feeling now? Better?" Ye Ting stretched his hand to touch the bandage around her arms. "Is it still painful?"

"Grandpa, I'm fine. It doesn't hurt that much anymore," Ye Qing Xin said.

"Xin Xin, I'm sorry." Ye Ting said. "Grandpa wanted to go and visit you at the hospital, but your father won't let me go." He shifted his gaze to his son and clicked his tongue. "He said that the hospital isn't a good place for me. Nonsense. I have to visit the hospital every month for my check-up. But he still said that it's not good for me."

Ye Qing Xin looked at the walking stick in his hand. "Grandpa, my dad is only worried that you will be tired. Anyway, I'm better now."

Ye Ting still had a dissatisfied look on his face.

Ye Qing Xin swept her gaze around the room and saw the worried look on her parents' faces. She felt that her grandpa did not know anything about her 'amnesia'. Perhaps, her parents were worried of the old man's health and decided to conceal it.

She thought about her good relationship with her grandfather and decided to keep this matter a secret. Ye Qing Xin glanced at her little sister and was glad that she was around to help her.

"That's right. Grandpa, I almost forget." Ye Qing Xin held the old man's hand tightly. "Happy birthday. Grandpa, I wish you good health and a long life."

Ye Ting patted Ye Qing Xin's hand a few times and laughed happily.

Ye Qing Luo stepped forward and spoke, "Grandpa, happy birthday! My elder sister and I already prepared a gift for you. Grandpa, we'll give it to you later."

"Alright." Ye Ting's eyes lit up. It can be said that he was looking forward to his granddaughters' gift. Ye Ting swept his gaze around and spoke, "That's right. Where is Tian Yi? He did not come with you?"

Ye Qing Xin glanced at her little sister. "I'm not sure. He should be busy." Since that man had not appeared in front of her, Ye Qing Xin did not pay too much attention to him.

Whether he would be attending her grandfather's birthday banquet was something that she knew nothing about.

Ye Ting heaved a sigh. "Tian Yi was always too busy with his work."

Just then, his eyes caught the sight of his friends who had just walked into the room. He turned to his granddaughters again and spoke, "You two should go in and look for your grandma. I'm sure that she is waiting to see you as well. I will go to meet my friends."

Ye Qing Xin watched as her grandfather leave. Then, she turned to his little sister and asked, "That Tian Yi... he was supposed to come to Grandpa's birthday party as well?"

The smile on Ye Qing Luo's face froze upon hearing the way her sister was addressing her fiance. She could not decide whether she should laugh or cry, "Sister, Brother Jin is your fiance. Shouldn't he accompany you to see Grandpa?"

Ye Qing Xin nodded. "What you say made sense. But, that person... I haven't heard anything from him for days. Is he really my fiance? Xiao Luo, is my relationship with him really that good?"

"Sister..." Ye Qing Luo found that she was unable to utter a word. She also did not know what was going on between her sister and Jin Tian Yi.

Heaving a sigh, Ye Qing Xin closed her eyes briefly and looked away. "Then, tell me about Grandma. What sort of person is she?"

"Grandma?" Ye Qing Luo saw the elder woman sitting at the corner while accompanied by a few of her friends. She pointed to her sister and spoke, "That is our Grandma. Sister, our relationship with her is quite good as well."

Ye Qing Luo continued to tell her sister more about their grandma while they both walked over.

Once they approached their grandmother, Ye Qing Xin and Ye Qing Luo both exchanged a few words with the old lady.

Just like Ye Qing Luo had mentioned, their grandmother was a very soft and kind woman.

After greeting their grandmother, the Ye sisters stood at the corner of the room to watch the people around. Ye Qing Luo was introducing her sister to the people around them. There were a few of their relatives as well as a few of their friends.

Her cousins came over to ask her about her injury. Ye Qing Xin could only tell them that she was recovering well. Once everyone was gone, Ye Qing Xin turned to his sister again and spoke, "Our family... they did not know anything about my memory loss?"

Ye Qing Luo nodded and whispered,. "Sister, Mom, and Dad both decided not to tell our family about your memory loss. They were afraid that someone would accidentally say something to our grandparents. Other than us, Brother Jin and Sister Jiang, no one else know about this."

"Wouldn't they suspect anything?" Ye Qing Xin raised a brow. "The way I acted, was it the same as I did in the past? What if I made a mistake?"

"It's not really different," Ye Qing Luo said. "You might seemed a little quieter, but the others would think that you were too tired after that accident."

As the birthday banquet was about to start, Ye Qing Luo led her elder sister downstairs. Seeing that a familiar face was walking over in their direction, Ye Qing Luo quickly leaned over and whispered, "Sister, that lady is your friend, Miss Zhang Yu Ying."
