Lin Yu didn’t say a single word as she numbly watched as Han Yuan lay back on her bed. Lily rambled on, not noticing Lin Yu’s expression. Lin Yu got out of bed and walked over to Han Yuan’s bedside. She subconsciously wanted to touch Han Yuan’s face.
“Oh, Young Madam, what are you doing out of bed?” Lily quickly grabbed Lin Yu’s hand. “Madam is fine. The doctor said that the checkup took too long and was afraid Madam wouldn’t be able to stand it, so he gave her some sleeping meds. She’s fine, she’ll wake up in a while,” Lily cheerily told Lin Yu. “Go to bed and rest, Young Madam. Oh, what a day. I’m so tired!” Lily uttered as she gave a stretch.
Lin Yu came back to her senses and hurriedly said, “Lily, go back home and take a rest. I’ll take care of Mother. I’m fine and you’re exhausted!”
That small show of concern was enough to make Lily beam. “Thank you, Young Madam, but I’m fine. I’m young and sturdy. I’m not that delicate! You just head back to bed.”
Under Lily’s help and care, Lin Yu got on the bed. Looking at the faithful and honest girl before her, she could only say, “I don’t know why, but I suddenly crave your fish soup.” She looked at Lily with some embarrassment as she spoke.
Lily was pleasantly surprised to hear that. “That’s great! You finally feel like eating something, Young Madam!”
Lin Yu replied a little shyly, “I don’t know why myself. I just suddenly started craving it.”
Lily chuckled, “Then it must be that our little master wants to try my cooking. No problem, easy-peasy. I’ll head back and make it now. I’ll bring it right over to you when it’s done, Young Madam, and make our little master a happy baby!”
Lin Yu quickly nodded. “Thank you, and sorry for the trouble.”
“It’s no trouble at all! I’ll be back real soon, Young Madam, so please sleep for a bit. Call the nurse over if you need anything,” Lily instructed attentively.
Lin Yu shook her head. “It’s fine. I wager your fish soup will probably be ready when I wake up from my short nap.”
Lily nodded with a smile and left happily. The ward fell silent once more. Lin Yu quietly listened to her own and Han Yuan’s breathing and finally made up her mind.
Lan Long put down his phone and looked at Shi Xiu, who was smiling beatifically and asked, “What’s the matter? What’s gotten you so happy?”
Shi Xiu frankly shared, “There’s a woman who’s been trying to ruin my second brother and his wife’s relationship, taking advantage of our current situation to get close to my brother. Hmph! I taught her a lesson this time! Let’s see if she still dares to play such tricks in the future! I hate people who wreck other people’s relationships the most! Man or woman, they’re all repulsive!”
The grip Lan Long had on his cup tightened, and he smiled as he questioned, “But how do you determine that? After all, it’s hard to say who’s the interloper in a relationship. Aren’t you afraid of misjudging things?”
Shi Xiu lifted her chin haughtily as she answered, “What’s there to misjudge? The love between my second brother and his wife is evident to everyone. That conniving woman insists on interfering in their relationship. It’s disgraceful! Now, she has shot herself in the foot!”
Lan Long lowered his head and swirled his cup gently, lightly stating, “I’m surprised you’re so talented and capable underneath all that playing around.” Hearing that, Shi Xiu proudly dangled the cherry she was holding before eating it, not noticing the coldness in Lan Long’s eyes.
‘Top quality girls are truly hard to come by. Look at how smoothly Shi Xiu dealt with Yun Liu. In comparison, those girls I have by my side are just unbearably stupid and incompetent!’ Lan Long thought.
A subordinate hurried over and whispered a few words into Lan Long’s ear before standing up straight to wait for Lan Long’s instructions. Lan Long didn’t say anything.
“Are you busy with something?” Shi Xiu asked. “Then I’ll head back first.” She stood up, and so did Lan Long. He didn’t try to get her to stay as he was a little distracted.
Shi Xiu glanced back and smiled at him. “Are you free the day after tomorrow? Would you come with me to go watch Fang Xi’s wedding rehearsal?”
Lan Long smiled and nodded. “Alright!”
“How are things going on Gu Man’s side?” Lan Long asked coldly, wiping the smile off his face as he watched Shi Xiu leave out the door.
“Things are going well,” the subordinate reported quietly. “Xi Cheng is with Gu Man the whole time.”
“Okay. Then, let’s do it.” Lan Long stated impassively.
The subordinate took a step back and swiftly responded: “Yes, sir.”
“I’m going to the hospital to see Grandpa! Drive me over!” Lan Long said as he strode out.
After he got out of the elevator and turned the corner, Lan Long could hear his grandfather’s hearty laughter coming from his ward. “Oh, you! Your wicked sense of humor hasn’t changed a bit! You are a delight, my dear!”
Lan Long’s expression changed, and his heart skipped a beat. He quickened his pace and rushed into the ward.
A woman in pink was sitting in front of his grandfather’s bed.
“Yang—” The half-spoken name was strangled in his throat. The woman turned around, and it was Yun Nan who was smiling at him.
“Oh, Ah Long, you’re here! What took you so long? Yang Yang has been keeping me company here for a long while!” Old Master Lan waved at his grandson cheerfully.
Lan Long’s expression returned to normal in an instant, and he smiled warmly at Yun Nan. “Thank you for coming to visit my grandfather.”
