While waiting in the ward, Lin Xun stayed by his senior's side, while Gan Yuming was not in the ward at this time.

Su Qingshi looked at her mother on the hospital bed; her pale face was heartbreaking.

Sensing her senior's low spirits, Lin Xun grabbed her hand.

The doctor just came and said that Ms. Yang Meihong's kidneys suffered pathological damage due to long-term overwork, which not only damaged the endothelial cells of the kidney blood vessels but also caused inflammatory cell infiltration in the blood circulation. He recommended long-term conditioning and avoiding excessive overwork.

The doctor also blamed the pretty senior for not paying attention to her mother's health, leaving the two young people speechless.

In the end, it was only after Lin Xun sincerely thanked the doctor that he was finally persuaded to leave.

Yang Meihong received an IV drip of nutrients, and her complexion improved somewhat.

She woke up shortly afterward.

With her eyelids trembling slightly, Yang Meihong slowly opened her eyes, looking somewhat bewildered.

Where is she?

A pungent smell of medicine wafted over, and the surrounding facilities made her realize that she was in a hospital.

Um?

Was she hallucinating? How could she see her own daughter? And her daughter was sleeping soundly with her head on a boy's shoulder. What made her even more suspicious was that the two of them were wearing matching outfits?

No way, my daughter's dating? With her personality, how could anyone possibly handle her?

She had always wanted to introduce a potential partner to her daughter, but the latter had consistently refused for various reasons.

Sometimes she really thought her daughter didn't like men...

The scene before her eyes lit up. Hmm, this young man seems to be quite good-looking, and he's quite young.

Just as Yang Meihong was sizing up Lin Xun and his companion, Lin Xun seemed to sense it and his attention was drawn to her. When he saw his future mother-in-law staring straight at him, a mixture of happiness, shyness, and embarrassment appeared on his face.

He was happy because his aunt had woken up, but it also made him a little reserved. After all, this was their first meeting, and he felt quite awkward.

After his initial joy, Lin Xun gently patted his senior: "Senior, wake up, Auntie is awake."

Senior?

Hmm, it seems they go to the same school, and the daughter is even older than him.

Yang Meihong couldn't help but think.

Su Qingshi woke up and the first thing she looked at was her mother. Seeing that she was awake, she asked, "How are you feeling?"

"It's alright, I just feel weak all over," Yang Meihong grinned.

Su Qingshi breathed a barely perceptible sigh of relief, then said with a hint of reproach, "What did I tell you last time? I told you to take a few days off and rest. Why did you go and keep busy again?"

Yang Meihong smiled and said, "I just can't stay idle. If you make me stay at home, I'll feel bored."

"There's no need to work yourself to death, is there? Don't you know your own body?" Su Qingshi's tone was somewhat cold.

Yang Meihong's eyes were smiling; she knew her daughter's personality well, and she was still worried about her.

"Shishi, aren't you going to introduce her?" Yang Meihong changed the subject, her gaze falling on Lin Xun.

Lin Xun suddenly felt immense pressure and involuntarily stood up, respectfully saying, "Hello, Auntie, um, I'm your boyfriend."

"Boy friend?"

Yang Meihong's eyes lit up. She was quite surprised to hear this answer with her own ears. She didn't expect her daughter to actually be dating someone.

Has someone finally wanted her daughter? Thank goodness.

If Su Qingshi knew what she was thinking, she would probably be speechless.

"Mom, his name is Lin Xun, and he's my boyfriend," Su Qingshi said calmly.

Seeing her mother's curious and gossipy look, she had already guessed that her mother was worried about her love life. Because she had been too aloof over the years, almost no men dared to approach her, which made Yang Meihong very worried, suspecting that her daughter was going to become an old maid...

"Hey, not bad, not bad, the young man is indeed quite handsome." Yang Meihong said with a smile, her previous sickly look had faded considerably.

"Thank you for the compliment, Auntie. You're very beautiful too. My senior sister has perfectly inherited your genes." Lin Xun's words were like sweet talk, instantly making the mother and daughter very happy.

Su Qingshi's lips curled into a faint smile, so subtle that Lin Xun beside her didn't even notice.

Yang Meihong was also delighted by Lin Xun's praise, and when she noticed the smile on her daughter's face, she was quite surprised.

As a mother, she hadn't seen her daughter smile for a long time.

It seems that this boy still holds a rather important place in his daughter's heart.

The group began to chat, mostly with Yang Meihong asking questions and Lin Xun answering, while Su Qingshi listened from the side, occasionally chiming in.

The scene was very heartwarming.

Through conversation, Yang Meihong became even more satisfied with Lin Xun, and the more she looked at him, the more he seemed like a son-in-law.

This guy seems to have a great personality and is very caring. Moreover, after getting to know him, I found out that his family is also well-off.

Yang Meihong's first impression of Lin Xun was actually based on her daughter. The fact that he could get her cold-hearted daughter to wear matching outfits already showed that this guy could handle her.

This is a situation she is happy to see; she is overjoyed that her daughter can live like a normal girl.

Just then, the door to the ward opened, and Gan Yuming walked in carrying some things.

"Oh? You're having such a good chat?" Seeing that Yang Meihong was awake, he felt relieved and a gentle smile appeared on his face.

"Uncle Gan," Lin Xun stood up and greeted him.

"Alright, alright, no need to be so polite," Gan Yuming said with a smile.

Yang Meihong looked at him with some guilt: "Brother Gan, thank you for your hard work and for troubling you again."

She fainted not because of amnesia, and she learned from her daughter that Gan Yuming was taking care of her.

This made her feel both grateful and conflicted.

Gan Yuming looked displeased: "Let's not talk about these things between us. However, you can't go on like this. You need to rest. I've already asked my superiors for leave, and they've approved it. They've given you three days off."

Yang Meihong was a little worried: "But the company is so short-staffed right now..."

Upon hearing this, Su Qingshi's cool gaze fell on her: "You're in this state now, and you're still worried about them?"

Gan Yuming's expression was serious: "Xiao Su is right. Work is never-ending, but once your body breaks down, it's hard to recover. Just take it easy and lie down for a few days."

Looking at the two children, one big and one small, Yang Meihong couldn't refute it. She looked at Lin Xun and said, "Little Lin, can you speak up for Auntie?"

Lin Xun smiled wryly and said, "Auntie, I think what Senior Sister and Uncle Gan said is right. You should rest well. You can make money anytime. Of course, Auntie's strong sense of responsibility is admirable, but I support Senior Sister."

As soon as he finished speaking, a small hand loosened its grip on his waist.

Su Qingshi said calmly, "Alright, three to one, objection overruled."

Yang Meihong: ...

Oh no, it seems like her status has declined.
