I&#8217;m really in a hurry.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Only then do I notice that he is holding a glass of water in his hand.<\/p>\n<p>The boiling water inside spills on the back of old Mr. Louis\u2019 hand, making it red and swollen.<\/p>\n<p>If he hadn&#8217;t pushed me away just now, I would have been injured.<\/p>\n<p>But doesn&#8217;t he hate me? Why does he protect me?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not the right time to think about this. What&#8217;s important is to see if his burns are serious or not.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It doesn&#8217;t matter. Be careful next time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Old Mr. Louis says kindly to the man, but because of the pain, his brows are tightly knitted.<\/p>\n<p>The man apologizes again before leaving.<\/p>\n<p>I frown and stepped forward to support old Mr. Louis. &#8220;Grandfather, let me take you to the hospital.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s none of your business! I&#8217;ve already said I don&#8217;t want to see you! Scram as far away as you can! Can&#8217;t you see that I hate you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Old Mr. Louis shakes off my hand impatiently and scolds me.<\/p>\n<p>If it had been before, I would have read that old Mr. Louis hates me.<\/p>\n<p>But after seeing what happened just now, I am a little dumbfounded.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know what he is thinking about, but if I hate someone, I definitely won&#8217;t save him.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, his dislike for me is truly inexplicable.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Grandfather, do you really hate me? Since that&#8217;s the case, why did you help me just now?&#8221; I look at old Mr. Louis with a serious expression.<\/p>\n<p>His expression changes, but his eyes are filled with extreme impatience.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Who helped you?! I told that person to be careful, not you! You&#8217;re so annoying!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Where are we going?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Why does he finish his work so early today?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m surprised.<\/p>\n<p>He has been so busy these past few days that he doesn&#8217;t even have a normal life of a human.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Our wedding is coming soon.

When we get old, we can find old memories through the photos.<\/p>\n<p>Actually, for me, the wedding isn&#8217;t that important.<\/p>\n<p>What I care about is the man I&#8217;m married to.<\/p>\n<p>As long as we love each other, it doesn&#8217;t matter to me whether there is a wedding or not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-472","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/472","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=472"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
