Chapter 82
After taking a moment to catch his breath, Lin Jiage tried his best to appear composed . He walked slowly into the ward as he threw out an excuse that he crafted on the spot, "The Great Demon King is suffering from period cramps . "
"The Great Demon King?" Grandpa Lin frowned . "Do you mean Mr . Zhang? Isn't he a male professor?"
Ah . . .
Lin Jiage was silent for two seconds before he calmly replied with an 'Oh' . Then, "I left out a word . Wife . His wife . "
"I see…" Grandpa Lin accepted Lin Jiage's explanation . He couldn't help recalling that the 'Great Demon King' that Lin Jiage mentioned—Professor Zhang—seemed to be in his sixties this year . For his wife to still be suffering from period cramps, their age gap sure was a little huge . Thus, he added, " . . . It seems like Professor Zhang's wife is pretty young . "
Lin Jiage's lips twitched inconspicuously as he silently turned his head away .
Grandpa Lin also couldn't be bothered to waste his attention on his grandson anymore . He turned to Shi Yao and said, "Yaoyao, why are you still standing? Come here and sit down…"
Grandpa Lin's "Yaoyao" was like a whip lashing on Lin Jiage, causing his back to tense up .
Shi Yao quickly gave an obedient greeting of "Grandpa Lin" before making her way towards the hospital bed .
"Yaoyao, what brings you here today?" The tone which Grandpa Lin directed towards Shi Yao was as amicable and close as always .
But in this moment, the amicable voice sounded no different from a ticking time bomb in Lin Jiage's ears .
Before Shi Yao could even speak up, he had already forcefully interjected into the conversation and asked, "Shi Yao, you don't have any classes this afternoon?"
Shi Yao was just about to respond to Grandpa Lin's words when Lin Jiage abruptly cut in . Surprised, she froze .
H-he's actually taking the initiative to speak to me? It feels like the first time in years since he's done that . . .
