Chapter 483 - What is Their Relationship? (2/2)
She turned around in time to look at a smiling face.
”Oh, Cousin-in-law?”
Du Jingtang rubbed his eyes in surprise. Was she the real thing or a fake?
”Mr. Du, how are you?” Xia Ruoxin returned Du Jingtang's smile. ”Also, thank you for what you did for me in the past.” Her gratitude was four years late. If it hadn't been for Du Jingtang's kind gesture all those years ago, she might not have survived until now.
”Oh…” Du Jingtang rolled his tongue in embarrassment. ”Don't mention it. I just did what I could. My cousin had gone overboard.” In fact, he was at a loss for words so he brought his cousin into the topic.
”Is your family member a patient here?” Du Jingtang realized Xia Ruoxin was carrying a lunchbox with her. Did she know anyone at the hospital?
Xia Ruoxin didn't have the chance to reply when she heard someone call her from behind.
”Ruoxin, what are you doing here?”
Gao Yi happened to pass by, and he saw Xia Ruoxin standing at the doorway.
”Gao Yi!”
Xia Ruoxin hurried over at first sight of him. She presented the lunchbox to Gao Yi with a smile like she was giving him something precious. ”I cooked some food and wanted to bring it to you. There's your favorite braised fish. It was still alive when I brought it home. The meat is very fresh.”
”Really?” Gao Yi quickly accepted the lunchbox from her. He could feel his hunger at the mention of food.
”Come, let's go eat.” Gao Yi pulled Xia Ruoxin's hand. He could feel the coldness of her hand, especially her left hand. He began to frown as an unpleasantness filled his voice. ”How many times must I tell you? Your left elbow can't take the cold. Why won't you listen to me?”
”It's nothing.” Xia Ruoxin moved her left elbow. ”I can suddenly feel the strength, and I'm still trying to get used to it. Without realizing, I may have exerted it. I didn't use much strength though.” She raised her left arm up and tightened her fingers. It had been weak throughout the four years. Out of nowhere, her arm was having a reaction. She would be lying if she said she wasn't feeling excited.
”Don't forget yourself.”
Gao Yi pulled a sullen face and told her off.
”I know.” Xia Ruoxin naturally knew her limits. She and Gao Yi were talking as though there was nobody around them. No third party would be able to interrupt the mood between them.
Du Jingtang could only stare at them with his eyes wide open.
Hmm, what was the relationship between Doctor Gao and his ex-ex-cousin-in-law?
From what he had just seen, it was quite obvious. They were in love. Both of them even had a beautiful daughter—Doctor Gao's daughter. He felt something was amiss when he put the bits and pieces together. However, he simply couldn't tell what was wrong at the moment.
”Let's go.” Gao Yi took the lunchbox from Xia Ruoxin. He was getting hungry, and he needed to eat now. Moreover, there was a troublesome man who was refusing to leave. Both Gao Yi and that man knew what he was up to.
”Okay.” Xia Ruoxin turned her head back and nodded gently towards Du Jingtang before she left with Gao Yi.
