Chapter 7

Xuan Zhiyuan paused, tears welling up in his eyes when he raised his head, he lifted the quilt and wanted to get out of bed, but Xuan Li hurried forward to stop him.

"It's really Xiaoli?" Xuan Zhiyuan held her hand tightly, nodded excitedly, "Okay! That kid Jiang Cheng brought you back."

Not seen in 15 years, Xuan Zhiyuan has changed from being full of energy in the original photos to gray hair now, and has witnessed a white-haired man give a black-haired man twice.

Xuan Li felt a little sad, held his hand, and smiled slightly, "Yes, Grandpa, I'm back."

Xuan Zhiyuan looked at her with relief, "It's really getting better and better, and it's [-]% like Yutong."

There were always photos of her family of four in her suitcase. Even Huo Lishen and Qiu Xin said that she looked like Yue Yutong after seeing her.

Yue Yutong was a well-known cheongsam beauty in Kyoto before she got married.At that time, the aristocratic circle was talking about who had the good fortune to marry the first beauty back home. Unexpectedly, Xuan Wenzhou, who looked like a frail scholar from the Xuan family, won the beauty in the end.

Xuan Li sat down on the chair beside the bed, "Grandpa, what did your doctor say?"

Xuan Zhiyuan sighed, "It's an old problem, just stay in the hospital for a few days and you'll be fine."

Xuan Li recalled when Jiang Cheng came to pick her up and told her solemnly: "Your grandfather is critically ill."

Now that I think about it, I'm afraid he didn't deliberately make the illness serious in order to trick himself into coming back.

"When I passed out two days ago, I thought I was going to die soon, and my wish before I died was to see you again." Xuan Zhiyuan patted the back of her hand, "So let that kid Jiang Cheng go to Jiangnan to pick you up. return."

Xuan Li: ...I misunderstood him.

"Jiang Cheng told you the address here?"

She shook her head, "It's what my cousin said."

"Ran Ran?" Speaking of Xuan Ran, Xuan Zhiyuan sighed helplessly, "She missed class again? Why didn't she come with you? You are not familiar with this place, what if you lose it?"

Xuan Li's eyelashes trembled, and she said softly, "I came by myself because my cousin had something to do."

Xuan Zhiyuan sneered, "What can she do? If you don't do well in class every day, you will know you are absent."

As if thinking of something, he looked at Xuan Li with concern again, "Xiao Li should be in the third year of high school according to her age, right? Now that you're back in Kyoto, you should transfer to Ran Ran's school, and there will be a care for you.

But I heard that there is no high school in Misty Rain Town, if you go directly to the third year of high school, there are only two months left before the college entrance examination, will the progress not catch up?It is also possible to re-read from high school. "

Xuan Li lowered her eyes, "It's okay grandpa, I'll just go straight to the third year of high school, don't worry about the progress."

Xuan Zhiyuan only thought that she had strong self-esteem, and comforted her: "It doesn't matter if you don't get good grades in the end, the Xuan family has a strong family background, and can support you and Ran Ran for the rest of your life."

Her heart moved, she sniffed, and said with a smile, "Grandpa, the people of the Xuan family are not the ones who wait for nothing, and they are not willing to sit and wait for death."

"Hahaha," Xuan Zhiyuan was moved by her words, and laughed heartily, "You and Yutong not only look alike, but also have a similar personality."

As he said that, he became sad, "It's a pity that I left early and didn't see you grow up..."

Xuanli heard Xuan Zhiyuan tell a lot about what happened in Kyoto in the past 15 years.

He didn't stop until the afterglow of the setting sun climbed onto the window sill, and looked at Xuanli, she showed no sign of impatience.

"Xiao Li, I'll ask Lao Cheng to come and pick you up."

Lao Cheng is Xuan Zhiyuan's driver and has been with him for more than 30 years. Recently, he was temporarily resting at home because he was hospitalized.

"No need, Grandpa, I'll just take a taxi back." Xuan Li stood up, "You take good care of yourself in the hospital."

"Wait a minute, Xiaoli," Xuan Zhiyuan called her, and took out a bank card from the drawer of the bedside table, "I must have a lot of things that I lacked when I first came to Kyoto. You can use them to buy whatever you want. The password is yours." birthday."

She blinked, do all the big families in the courtyard like Seka when they meet?
Xuan Li took out the gold card, "I have the card given by Brother Jiang Cheng."

"You shouldn't have let Jiang Cheng pick you up, even brother!" He snorted angrily, "Don't be fooled by his generous appearance, this kid is putting too much thought into it!"

She remembered the scene where Jiang Cheng arrived in time to save her, and still mustered up the courage to speak up for him.

"Jiang Cheng doesn't look like a bad guy."

Xuan Zhiyuan's head hurts a bit, "Forget it, be careful on the way back."

After Xuanli left the hospital, he stopped the car at the intersection for half an hour, but no taxi passed by.She had no choice but to give up and go back the same way based on her memory.

When passing by the mobile phone store, she remembered Jiang Cheng's advice, and stood for a while before walking in.

"welcome."

A uniform welcome sounded throughout the store.

Xuanli was a little panicked, she clenched the strap of her satchel, looked at the smiling shopping guide, her voice was so nervous that she began to tremble.

"You... hello, I... I buy a mobile phone."

The shopping guide looked her up and down, his smile restrained a bit, but he still said politely: "Underage please buy mobile phones accompanied by your parents."

She pursed her lips and explained in a weak voice: "...I am an adult."

"But you're still wearing your school uniform."

Xuanli is young and thin, so it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a junior high school student.

She insisted on explaining: "I'm really an adult, I had my birthday last month."

The shopping guide reluctantly believed it, and took her to introduce several mobile phones.

Xuanli had never used a smartphone before, and faced with the hype from the shopping guide, she casually pointed to a mobile phone with a price tag of 999 in the window.

The shopping guide rolled her eyes, she said that if she was poor, she spent so much time talking about it.

She angrily took out her mobile phone and put it on the counter, not even wanting to give Xuan Li another look.

"Cash or scan code?"

Xuan Li took out the gold card, "Swipe the card."

The shopping guide sneered in his heart: Heh, I didn't expect that he was hired by the gold master.

As soon as the gold card came out, the other shopping guides who watched the excitement were stunned and quickly gathered around.

A colleague approached the shopping guide's ear, "Chen Yan, this is not an ordinary gold card! I heard that very few people have it!"

"Really?" Chen Yan was dubious. After all, there are many rich people in Kyoto, and Jinka is not unusual in the aristocratic circle.

"Didn't you see that there are words engraved on the card?" The colleague shook Chen Yan's arm desperately, "That means it's custom-made! When you swipe later, see whose name it is!"

Chen Yan put away the previous disdain, put on a sincere smile, and took the phone back.

"Miss, this phone is too old, I recommend you to buy this latest Apple! The top version is worthy of your price!"

Although Xuanli didn't hear what the shopping guide's colleague said to her, she could vaguely guess that it was related to this card.

One second she still had a look of disdain, but the next second she became so obsequious.
