Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 159 Grandma is Lost
With a splash, I successfully caught a fish. The fish was fat and big, thrashing its tail.

"Grandma, I caught it! I caught it..."

Su Ying ran back to the shore, but her grandmother was nowhere to be seen. Clang! The three-pronged nail fell to the ground.

"grandmother!"

"grandmother!"

"Could your grandmother have gone back on her own?" A soothing voice rang in my ears.

The man had a refined appearance and elegant demeanor, like a cultured college student.

Su Ying shook her head, "No, to tell you the truth, my grandma has Alzheimer's and doesn't recognize the way home at all. I'm afraid of her..."

A million unexpected possibilities flashed through Su Ying's mind, and her eyes reddened.

Shen Qingfeng took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to her, comforting her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Here, you go look over there first, and I'll go find the village secretary and ask him to announce it over the loudspeaker. Maybe someone will see it and bring it back to you!"

He makes a lot of sense. Su Ying was too hasty and almost forgot about such an efficient method.

"Okay, thank you very much!"

The two went their separate ways. Su Ying searched the vicinity but couldn't find her grandmother. With the sun setting, she couldn't imagine how terrifying it must have been for her to face the darkness alone.

"How did it go?" Su Ying thought Shen Qingfeng had left after helping, but who knew he would come back.

Su Ying shook her head anxiously, "It's all my fault. If I had stayed by Grandma's side, she wouldn't have gotten lost!"

“You can’t say that. You can’t be with her every minute of every day, can you? That’s too negative. Although she is sick, she still has basic daily living abilities. All we need to do is find her. Come on, I’ll take you to the mountain to take a look!”

Su Ying nodded gratefully.

"grandmother!"

"Grandma, where are you? It's me, Yingying..."

As darkness fell, the temperature in the mountains dropped sharply, and Su Ying sneezed several times in a row.

She's already feeling so cold, what will her grandmother do?
As if by magic, Shen Qingfeng produced a flashlight from somewhere and illuminated the road ahead, making it much brighter.

They walked up the mountain for about an hour before finally finding the old woman under a big tree.

The old man was asleep nestled against a big tree. His already thin and hunched body was curled up in a ball because of the cold, making him look even smaller.

Su Ying ran over excitedly and hugged her grandmother tightly, refusing to let go. "Grandma, do you know how scared I was? Why didn't you wait for me? Why did you run off like that?"

Su Ying's tone contained complaints and self-blame, but more than anything, it was fear. She had already lost her parents and didn't want to lose anyone else.

The old lady woke up groggily, rubbed her eyes, and when she saw who was in front of her, she pouted and complained, "I've been waiting for you for so long, why did it take you so long to come?"

As she spoke, she pulled a handful of small fruits from her bosom and stuffed them into Su Ying's hands. "Look, there are so many fruits here! I picked a lot for you and Awen to eat. Oh, and don't eat them all!"

Su Ying looked at the bright red, round fruit in her palm, her eyes welling up with tears. "You ran up the mountain just to pick fruit for us?"

The old lady tilted her head and said righteously, "That's right, I overheard Old Man Wang saying that there are lots and lots of fruits on this mountain. Humph, we can't let him pick them all by himself!"

As she spoke, her gaze fell on Shen Qingfeng. She quickly hid behind Su Ying, shook Su Ying's arm, and pointed at Shen Qingfeng, "Yingying, who is he?"

Su Ying felt rather embarrassed; the person had helped her for so long, yet she didn't even know their name.

Shen Qingfeng stepped forward and introduced himself politely, "Grandma, my name is Shen Qingfeng, you can just call me Qingfeng!" The old lady pondered deeply before repeating the two words, "Qingfeng... how could anyone choose such a name? Why not Qingyu or Qingchen?"

puff!
Su Ying almost burst out laughing.

Shen Qingfeng also gave an awkward smile. Yes, he had never asked his father why he named himself Qingfeng.

Finally, the two of them worked together to bring Grandma down the mountain. Su Ying expressed her sincere gratitude to Shen Qingfeng, "Mr. Shen, thank you so much for today!"

Shen Qingfeng smiled gently, "It's nothing, as long as your grandmother is alright!"

"That morning, my Yingying caught me a really big fish. You've never eaten one before, have you? Let me invite you to my house to eat a big fish." It seemed that the old lady had a very good impression of Shen Qingfeng. Apart from Su Wen and Su Ying, she actually remembered Shen Qingfeng in such a short time. Although she even remembered his name wrong, Su Ying was gratified.

“This…” Shen Qingfeng looked at Su Ying.

Su Ying then extended an invitation, "Yes, Mr. Shen, I've been busy all day and haven't even had a chance to offer you a drink of water. If you don't mind..."

"I don't mind!"
Su Ying: “…”

In the evening, Su Wen cooked the fish in three different ways. His cooking skills were excellent, and even Shen Qingfeng praised it repeatedly.

At the dinner table, Su Wen sized up Shen Qingfeng. "Mr. Shen, are you a local?"

"I'm from Qingcheng, and I currently work here!"

"What job?"

"doctor!"

"A doctor?" Su Wen and Su Ying asked in unison.

Shen Qingfeng looked down at himself, a little embarrassed. "Do I look a bit like it?"

Su Wen quickly waved his hands, "No, no, no, it's just too similar! The first time I saw you, I thought you were either a teacher or a doctor. Dr. Shen looks like a refined and polite person. Doctor, hello!"

She tapped her fingertips on the table a few times, seemingly casually, and said, "I just wonder if Dr. Shen is single now?"

"Pfft!" Su Ying was startled by his unexpected move and spat out a mouthful of hot soup.

"Miss Su, are you alright?" Shen Qingfeng handed her a tissue.

"It's okay, it's just too hot!" She glared at Su Wen while he wasn't looking.

Su Wen touched the tip of his nose and returned to seriousness, "Ah, what I mean is, if you were a doctor, you could help me take a look at my grandmother's illness and see if it's still curable?"

Shen Qingfeng smiled and said, "I was just thinking about that too. How about this, you bring over the medicine that Grandma is currently taking so I can take a look!"

Unfortunately, my grandmother's illness could not be effectively treated, but with the long-term care of her relatives, her condition might be alleviated.

Hearing this, Su Ying, who had initially given up hope, felt a glimmer of hope. Whether her grandmother could recover was no longer important; she was old and didn't know how much longer she had. As long as her grandmother was happy every day, she would have no regrets.

Before leaving, Shen Qingfeng said that he would come often to check on his grandmother's health in case she had any other health problems.

"Thank you so much, Dr. Shen! Thanks to you, we don't have to take Grandma all that way for her checkup!" Su Wen offered Shen Qingfeng some fruit, but he refused, saying, "I'm a doctor, saving lives is my duty! Alright, you don't need to see me off!"

"That won't do, Xiaoying, go see Dr. Shen off, it's dark outside!" Su Wen winked at Su Ying.

"I'll settle the score with him when we get back," Su Ying smiled at Shen Qingfeng, "Dr. Shen, watch your step!"
