Chapter 10: Scheming
"Auntie, is the work of a caretaker tiring?" Sun Chan asked.
"Yes, it's quite tiring and also pretty awkward," she said and laughed, "Actually, in our line of work, taking care of people doesn't differentiate between men and women. At first, I felt quite awkward, serving people with their bathroom needs and wiping them. My husband wasn't happy about it either, but there are so many mouths to feed at home, and his little earnings weren't enough. Now we're used to it. Why, do you also want to do it?"
Sun Chan hesitated for a moment and then said, "I came to the city to seek a friend. I need to talk to her first."
"Rest for a couple of days, and wait until your foot gets better. If you really want to do it, I can introduce you. Nowadays, many city folks are rich; when the elders at home get sick, they don't want to personally take care of them. We can earn a bit of money too."
Sun Chan nodded, thinking it would be nice to have a job, but no matter what, she had to let Wang Dan know she was safe. However, with her leg in its current state, it was quite troublesome.
At that moment, Bai Fanglan was in the office making a phone call, leaning against the table, playing with the phone cord, her tone slightly coquettish.
"Grandpa, you talk to Gu Junming yourself. He keeps refusing me, and I'm too embarrassed to ask him out again."
Bai Fanglan's grandfather, Bai Chuan, was sitting on the sofa holding the phone, his brow furrowed in displeasure.
"The Bai Family and the Gu Family have always had good relations. Don't worry about this matter, I'll make sure you see him." Bai Chuan was very unhappy. Gu Junming was too disrespectful, always refusing my granddaughter even though she is in such good condition. Clearly, he doesn't take me seriously!
Bai Fanglan laughed, "I understand, I'm always assured when you're handling things, Grandpa."
"I'll call him; he wouldn't dare not to come." Bai Chuan's tone was quite assertive and then added, "But Lan'er, do you really insist on being with him? His family is very complicated, can you accept that?" This granddaughter was pampered by him since childhood, what does she know about compromise and dealing with people?
