Chapter 28 - Can I Have This Tomorrow Too?

"Her name is Min Ju. Find any information regarding that child. Everything." Old Man Xiao Ren said.

"Yes, my lord."

"No need to gather the information hastily. I'm delaying my discharge so that I can spend some time with my soon to be granddaughter. I also need to talk to her grandfather so that we can talk if I can steal a little bit of his granddaughters time. Haha! I wonder if he's happy if I can become grandfather Two? Ah, this is a lot of work, I need to convince him." Xiao Ren sighed while the other person on the line was greatly shaken.

His boss wants to spend some time with the girl and her grandfather of hers?

Future granddaughter? Did I heard that right?

Will the girl won't get scared with a grumpy old man like you?

Wait, what did the boss said? Him? Grandfather Two? What the heck?! Did he have a few loose screws?

"Do your work now. I'm hunging up."

Old Man Xiao ended the call and look out at the window. He saw Min Ju running back here in the hospital with plastic bags on both hands.

'I want food and care too.' The old Man Xiao thought.

...

"He Rue, is Uncle He awake? Here's some chicken soup for him." Min Ju entered the room.

"Uncle He! Finally, you're awake! We were so worried about you. Here's the soup. He Rue, help your father eat it. I'm going to Grandpa."

"Thanks, Ju."

"There's no need for thanks, we're family Uncle He."

Uncle He smiled. He Rue help him sit up in the bed and help him eat.

Min Ju return to Grandfather Fu's room and found him awake.

"Grandpa, I bought you some soup. You must be hungry." Just like He Rue, Min Ju helped Grandfather Fu sat in his bed.

Min Ju carried the bowl of chicken soup over with both hands and took the spoon to ladle out a single scoop before blowing on it feeding Grandfather Fu.

Grandfather Fu open his mouth receiving the savory soup that his granddaughter bought for him.

A sweet feeling entered his heart. This is really a sweet gesture of his beloved granddaughter.

...

"We'll be going home tomorrow after I paid for the hospital bill, grandfather." Putting down the spoon and bowl in the side table, Min Ju sat down at the edge of the bed.

"I don't want to owe Han Lian. Even though we knew each other, we're not friends."

"You knew each other? How? Old Han said that, that grandson of his is not easy to get along with. He even had to push him to be friends with other rich young youths. When did you met him?" Grandfather Fu wash his mouth with water and spit it in the plastic bag Min Ju brought to him before she throw it in the garbage can.

"I knew him in a game. Did you know grandfather that..." Min Ju's eyes turn crescent and she restrain to let out a laugh.

"That what?" Grandfather Fu curiously answer.

"That I'm his captain? That guy will always be under me." She smugly said.

"What?" Grandfather Fu's ears seemed to be block by something hearing Min Ju' s words. Adding on to the fact that she had that smug smile of hers he cannot help but think of something else.

Is my granddaughter bullying others?

Bu Jin Ma was bailed out from jail after calling his boss named Lord An Yang. He told everything about what happened. About a girl named Min Ju, the old coot's granddaughter.

Lord An Yang listened to what Bu Jin Ma's story, furrowing his brows closer together.

"You lost to a little kid? What are you? An idiot?" Lord An Yang leaned to his leather chair behind a mahogany table.

Bu Jin Ma can't really see his boss expression as there was no lighting in the room besides the window behind the powerful man.

"I hate to admit it boss. But that kid is good. She knew how to fight. Even my men is helpless against her. All of them broke some of their bones."

Lord An Yang removed his cigarette from his lips and damp it into the ashtray.

"Oh? That little girl's name is Min Ju, you say? Call our men to investigate for her. I wanted to know that little girl before playing with her." Lord An Yang stand up and look outside the window with his hands behind his back.

Bu Jin Ma smiled and replied, "Right away, boss."

Knock knock

Bu Jin Ma opened the door slightly and saw that it was the boss' woman. He let her enter before exiting himself and close the door silently.

"Honey~" Su Mei called out coquettishly and hugged the middle age man's stature.

"Say it, Mei'er." The man patiently ask.

"I just miss you." Su Mei said sweetly.

"Aren't you going to plead for help for your Uncle?" Lord An Yang turn around and hugged the young woman in his embrace.

"I want to spend some time with you first before pleading for my Uncle. His not my first priority, you are." Su Mei loosened the man's necktie.

Lord An Yang slips his rough hands inside her skirt, rubbing her inner t.h.i.g.h.

Su Mei giggled.

"Taste me, honey." She whispered seductively on Lord An Yang's ear, lighting a fire inside of him.

Meanwhile, back to Min Ju's side. After her grandfather fall asleep she slip out of the room quietly.

She search for a nurse to heat up the chicken soup she still had and walked towards Old Man Xiao's room.

Knocking twice, she heard the old man's voice. "Come in."

Old Man Xiao didn't even look at the person entering, thinking it was just some nurse bringing up his bland food.

"Grandpa, I brought you soup. Are you hungry?"

Hearing that gentle voice, Old Man Xiao lift up his head and found Min Ju holding a bowl of hot soup. His eyes lit up.

"Is that for me?" He asked

"Yes it is. I bought this outside. Don't worry, it's clean and delicious."

Old Man Xiao reach out for the bowl. Seeing him so eager, Min Ju smiled and thought that the old man is just so hungry. She said, "Be careful, it's hot."

"Thank you, Little Ju."

Little Ju?

"You know my name?" Min Ju looked at him.

"I heard your name when that other girl called you Min Ju. Let me introduce myself, my name is Xiao Ren. You can call me Grandpa if you want." He blow the spoonful of soup and put it on his mouth.

"Isn't that what I'm calling you?" Min Ju sat at the sofa and watch him gobbled the soup.

Old Man Xiao never taste anything like this before. All he had in his mansion was made by prefessional chef around the world but despite that, what he's eating right now is the best chicken soup he had ever have.

"This soup is delicious. Can I have this tomorrow too?"
