Chapter 214 The Climax of the Revelation of One’s Origins Must See Ten Thousand More (3)
An Family Mansion
"Xiao Shi, how have you been feeling these past few days?" At the dining table, Old Lady An and Kong Shi were having lunch. An Zisheng had gone to work, and Old Master An had also gone to play chess with friends.
"After taking the medicine Xiao Qing prescribed, I feel much better than before. But I’m just always sleepy, it might be a side effect of the medicine," Kong Shi rubbed her temples and sighed quietly. She had woken up less than an hour ago and was already getting sleepy again.
"Sleepy?" Old Lady An put down her rice bowl and looked at Kong Shi, who appeared drowsy, "I also noticed you’ve been especially sleepy these days. When Xiao Qing comes, talk to her about it and see if there’s something else wrong with your body."
"Alright."
As the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were chatting and eating, the villa’s doorbell rang. Soon after, Aunt Li’s excited voice could be heard from the entrance: "Miss An, you’ve finally come! The old lady and the madam have been talking about you!"
Upon hearing this, Kong Shi and Old Lady An quickly set down their chopsticks and got up to head for the door.
"Xiao Qing, you’re here!" Kong Shi joyfully grabbed An Yiqing’s hand and looked her over, "What have you been busy with these past few days? You seem a bit thinner, did you eat? Your grandma and I were just having lunch, come join us for a bite! Aunt Li, go to the kitchen and cook two more dishes!" Before An Yiqing could speak, Kong Shi was both expressing care and arranging for lunch, treating her as if she were her own daughter.
The girl felt an unprecedented warmth and peace in her heart as she watched the frail woman bustling about for her. She obediently sat down at the dining table with Kong Shi without mentioning that she had already eaten lunch. Strangely, An Yiqing didn’t want to disappoint Kong Shi or leave her efforts unreciprocated.
"Grandma An, Aunt An, please sit down," An Yiqing said with a smile, ushering the elders back to their chairs, "I’ve just arrived, and you two are already bustling about so much, it makes me feel embarrassed."
