Chapter 185 Full of Praise
After returning from the hospital, grandma was in a particularly good mood. This was not only because of the good results of the re-examination, but also because she keenly noticed the subtle connection between Xiao Fangfei and Kong Haoyu, which gave rise to some different ideas in her mind.
Grandma sat on the sofa in the living room, looking relaxed and contented, but her eyes would occasionally glance at Xiao Fangfei who was busy.
Suddenly, she cleared her throat and said, "Fang Fei, that little Kong is a really good kid today.
He is very enthusiastic and busy in the hospital.
You see, he ran up and down to help us register and queue up, without any complaints, and he kept comforting me, an old lady, which made me feel very at ease. "
Grandma's eyes showed genuine admiration. She recalled the scene in the hospital and was deeply impressed by Kong Haoyu's patience and meticulousness.
Xiao Fangfei was tidying up the room. When she heard her grandmother's words, she responded casually, "Well, yes, grandma, it's really thanks to his help today."
Her hands kept moving. At this moment, she really just thought that Kong Haoyu was a person who was eager to help. She didn't have any other special feelings. She was almost a stranger to Kong Haoyu, so she didn't think much about the deeper meaning of her grandmother's words.
Grandma looked at Xiao Fangfei's nonchalant expression, smiled, and continued, "I think he is not only enthusiastic, but also very polite. He always speaks softly to me and is very respectful.
Every time I asked him something, he answered so appropriately. There are not many young people who are so polite and sensible nowadays."
As the grandmother spoke, she carefully observed Xiao Fangfei's reaction, thinking that if the two children could have more contact, maybe they could have a good relationship.
She felt that Kong Haoyu had a reassuring temperament, and it would be great if he could develop a relationship with Fang Fei.
Xiao Fangfei put away the things she had sorted, walked over to sit next to her grandmother, and said with a smile: "Grandma, you are right, he is indeed very polite. But this is what he should do. Everyone will help when encountering such a situation." She had no idea that her grandmother was deliberately testing her, and was simply responding to her grandmother's words.
Grandma nodded slightly and said, "Fangfei, do you know anything about him? For example, what is his job? What do he like in his daily life?"
Grandma looked at Xiao Fangfei with curiosity, trying to find some clues from her answer.
She thought to herself that if Fangfei knew more about Kong Haoyu, she might discover more of his strengths.
Xiao Fangfei looked at her grandmother blankly, feeling a little confused.
Why is grandma so interested in Kong Haoyu today? Grandma is not usually the kind of person who likes to ask about others, but why is she asking this and that today and praising him so much? This is too abnormal.
She felt a little strange, but didn't think too deeply about it. She just said casually: "Grandma, I don't really know him very well. I just know that he is Pei Luonan's special assistant to the president. I don't know anything else. Why are you suddenly so interested in him?"
Grandma smiled and said, "I just think this kid is pretty good, I just asked casually. You said he has a good job and is such a nice person. It would be nice to have a friend like him, don't you think?"
Grandma deliberately emphasized the word "friend" and stared at Xiao Fangfei to see her reaction.
She hoped to get some clues from Xiao Fangfei's expression to see if she had any feelings towards Kong Haoyu.
Xiao Fangfei didn't understand her grandmother's meaning at all. She said nonchalantly, "Yeah, it's good to have more friends. But I haven't had much contact with him. I only officially met him today."
As she spoke, she picked up an apple and began to peel it, without showing any strange emotion at all because of what her grandmother said.
In the next few days, grandma would always mention Kong Haoyu intentionally or unintentionally.
For example, when eating, grandma would ask: "Fangfei, do you think Xiao Kong is particular about what he eats? Will he like the food we cooked today?"
Xiao Fangfei just smiled and replied, "Grandma, don't think too much. He may not come to our house for dinner." She felt more and more strange. Why did grandma always mention Kong Haoyu after just meeting him once? It was like she was possessed. She felt that grandma's behavior was a little inexplicable, but it was difficult to say it directly. She just felt a little helpless.
One afternoon, grandma suddenly said to Xiao Fangfei: "Fangfei, should we invite Xiao Kong to our house for a meal and thank him properly?"
Xiao Fangfei looked at her grandmother in surprise, and quickly waved her hands and said, "Grandma, no, it's too much trouble. And he's so busy, he may not have the time. Besides, it's just a small favor. If we invite him to our house for dinner, he will feel it's too deliberate and strange, and it may even cause him unnecessary trouble."
She really felt that there was no need to do this, she simply thought it was a very troublesome thing, and she was also worried that it would cause trouble to Kong Haoyu.
But grandma insisted, "It's not a bother, it's not a bother. We'll just cook a few home-cooked dishes to express our feelings. You can give him a call and ask. If he has time, he can come. If not, forget it."
Grandma's eyes were full of anticipation. She hoped that through this opportunity, Xiao Fangfei and Kong Haoyu would have more contact.
She thought that if the two of them could get along in a relaxed environment, perhaps they could better understand each other.
Xiao Fangfei looked at her grandmother's determined eyes and said helplessly, "Grandma, I really don't think this is a good idea. I believe he didn't help us just to get us to treat him to a meal. We can thank him later when we have the chance. We don't have to do it this way."
She still resolutely rejected her grandmother's proposal. She didn't want to embarrass each other because of this matter. Although she rejected her grandmother's proposal, she was still full of gratitude to Kong Haoyu in her heart, but she felt that it was inappropriate to express her gratitude in this way.
Grandma looked at Xiao Fangfei's determination. Although she felt a little disappointed, she didn't want to force her.
She nodded and said, "Okay, since you think so, then forget it. But Fangfei, don't think too much of him. Maybe he would be happy to make friends with us."
Grandma couldn't help but speak well of Kong Haoyu. She really liked this polite and enthusiastic young man, and hoped that Xiao Fangfei could have more contact with him.
In the following days, grandma would occasionally mention Kong Haoyu, but Xiao Fangfei just listened and was no longer surprised or at a loss as before.
She still focused on taking care of her grandmother and her own life. She still didn't notice the subtle feelings and didn't think too much about Kong Haoyu.
In her opinion, Kong Haoyu was just a passer-by in her life. Although he helped her on that special day, their life trajectories did not seem to have much intersection.
However, fate always likes to play tricks on people. Sometimes, a seemingly accidental encounter may trigger an unexpected story one day in the future.
At this time, Xiao Fangfei didn't know that the story between her and Kong Haoyu had just begun, and there would be more surprises and challenges waiting for them in the future.
Although my grandmother's proposal to treat me to a meal was not realized this time, the vague connection had already quietly planted the seeds, waiting for the right time to take root and sprout.
