Chapter 197: How Well Does He Treat You?
While waiting for lunchtime, Old Madam Xu conversed more with Leslie. Calix was treated as nonexistent by the old lady until she had questions for him. In helplessness, he quietly listened to the two ladies’ conversation.
As for Mrs. An, Butler Gu directed her to wait in another room. She was served with snacks and drinks as well.
"Leslie, don’t you feel tired after all those rehab sessions?" Old Madam Xu asked Leslie in concern, creases lining her forehead, "When Calix underwent his years ago, he always complained about them."
Calix gave a deadpan stare to Old Madam Xu, thinking was it necessary to drag his name into this?
"They’re indeed tiring... I couldn’t do much in the... beginning yet, I felt very tired..." Leslie echoed Old Madam Xu’s sentiment, telling the old lady more about her treatment, "Grandma, the private nurses you... chose have been taking care of me... well..."
Leslie brought up how meticulous Mrs. An and Mrs. Su were in caring for her. She also mentioned Dr. Mo, Ms. Chen and Ms. Yao’s intentions for her to get fully recover soon.
The smile on Old Madam Xu’s lips deepened. Somehow, she felt happy to hear how politely Leslie spoke to her. Despite the young lady’s inability to speak clearly as normal people, she made the effort to do so.
"Hehe, of course! I’ll pick the best ones for you," chuckling, Old Madam Xu covered her mouth with one hand, "I was shocked when I heard Calix hadn’t hired any private nurses. Did he really think he can look after you every minute and second?"
Calix openly exhaled a sigh, earning Leslie’s chuckle and Old Madam Xu’s glare. The old lady and grandson pair was caught in a battle of stare.
