Chapter 1492 Lying On The Bed To Sleep
“Speaking of my father, you probably won’t know him,” Li Jinnan said. “My father is Li Xiao, and my grandfather is Li Xun.”
Ye Zhenhua’s eyes immediately lit up. He clapped his hands in recognition as he clarified, “You’re Commander Li Xun’s grandson?”
Li Jinnan nodded his head in response and said, “Yes.”
Ye Zhenhua was suddenly excited. “So you’re Commander Li Xun’s grandson! You’ve grown up so much in the blink of an eye!”
Ye Youyou was surprised and asked, “Dad, how did you?”
“When I was young, I stayed in Kingstown for a period of time. Back then, the city was experiencing unrest. If not for Commander Li Xun, I would have probably been dead long ago!” Ye Zhenhua was extremely emotional. “This has to be fate! Xiao Nan, how did you get to know Ye Youyou?”
“She works at my company, so, naturally, we got to know each other,” Li Jinnan said.
His reply was very succinct. Ye Zhenhua was surprised and asked, “Didn’t you join the army?”
“I did, but I suffered a minor injury and retired,” Li Jinnan replied.
Ye Zhenhua felt sympathetic and asked, “Where were you injured? Was it serious?”
“It wasn’t serious,” Li Jinnan said. “I injured a ligament in my leg. As long I don’t do vigorous exercises for an extended period of time, I’ll be fine. After recuperating for four to five years, it’s not much of a problem anymore.”
When Ye Youyou heard his words, she instinctively glanced at his leg. This was the first time she had heard about his injury. Before he made any mention of this, Ye Youyou hadn’t realized anything at all.
Ye Zhenhua chatted with Li Jinnan for some time. When Ye Youyou saw that Li Jinnan was done eating, she quickly shooed them off to the couch.
As she cleared up the dishes from the table, she made sure to eavesdrop on their conversation. The topics ranged from small talk about the family to the regal tales of Old Captain Li’s past glory. Ye Zhenhua’s eyes were shining with awe and admiration throughout.
Truthfully, Li Jinnan’s knowledge of his grandfather wasn’t exactly comprehensive. Hearing Ye Zhenhua recount the tales of his grandfather’s younger days gave him a clearer picture of the kind of person his grandfather was.
When Ye Youyou finished washing the dishes and realized they were still talking, she held her grandfather’s hand and took him out for a walk. By the time they got back, the sky was already dark.
Ye Zhenhua was sitting in the courtyard smoking. When he saw Ye Youyou return, he stood up and took hold of his father from her. He said, “Keep your boyfriend company. He seems a little tired, so I told him to rest early.”
Ye Youyou was stunned and asked, “Where did you have him rest?”
“In your room. This gas supply in this town is unstable. Check if the water heater is working,” Ye Zhenhua said as he helped his father back into the room.
The calm façade of Ye Youyou’s face cracked a little as she exclaimed, “Dad! How could you let a man into my room so easily?”
Ye Zhenhua found her protest ridiculous. He turned around and replied, “Aren’t you already together with him? What’s there to be shy about? Besides, he’s Commander Li Xun’s grandson. He can be trusted!”
Ye Youyou was speechless.
Just because he is Li Xun’s grandson, my father has no issue selling me off?
Ye Youyou suddenly began to doubt her worth in her father’s eyes. Although she hadn’t returned in a long time, how could she mean even less than Li Jinnan to her father?
What the devil…
Ye Youyou stomped into her room. When she opened the door, it was pitch black inside. She reached her hand out to switch on the lamp and immediately noticed Li Jinnan half-slouched against the side of the bed.
His eyes were tightly shut, and his breathing was even. He looked asleep. However, the bed was made up nicely, and looked untouched.
When Ye Youyou saw that, the unhappiness in her heart dissipated. She reached out to nudge him and asked, “Why aren’t you lying on the bed to sleep? Wake up.”
