After Rebirth, I Married the Great Demon King

Chapter 203: Chapter 203: The Boy I Like

Having high blood pressure is definitely better than dealing with all sorts of other illnesses.

Besides, the doctor gave Old Mrs. Xu a full-body checkup. Other than slightly elevated blood pressure and blood sugar, everything else was perfectly healthy.

Still, fainting is no small matter, especially at Old Mrs. Xu’s age. The risks are much more serious.

Yun Shifei said, "Grandma, you’ve got to take this seriously. You can’t keep being like this."

Actually, when it comes to managing blood pressure, as long as you control your diet and exercise regularly, it’s generally not dangerous.

Hearing Yun Shifei’s words, Old Mrs. Xu waved her hand dismissively. "Shi Fei, don’t worry about it. Your grandmother’s as strong as an ox."

"You’ll be fine, yes," Yun Shifei said, but then her tone suddenly grew firm. "But from now on, no more snacking, and no eating too much sugar. It’s bad for your health."

As she said this, Yun Shifei thought about how she herself also loved sweets. It wasn’t good for her own body either.

Eating sugar, besides making one feel happy, didn’t really serve any purpose.

But now, she felt she was starting to find happiness in other ways, so there wasn’t much need to eat so much sugar anymore.

Seeing Yun Shifei being so strict and serious, like an adult scolding a child, Xu Yuejiao, who had never seen her like this before, couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Old Mrs. Xu was always the one scolding others because she could be so strict. Xu Yuejiao had been afraid of her since she was a child, especially when Old Mrs. Xu was angry—she could even scold her dad.

Who would’ve thought that one day, Old Mrs. Xu would find herself being scolded by her younger grandniece?

This seemingly soft-spoken and gentle cousin could really hold her own when she started lecturing someone.

What was even more surprising was that Old Mrs. Xu actually listened to her!

"Fine, fine, I won’t eat it anymore," she relented.

Seeing her grandmother comply, Yun Shifei let out a small sigh of relief, but she added, "And no sneaking around to eat, either. If I find out..."

"I’ll get mad and ignore you!"
