She went to the hospital to see her ex-boyfriend who had a broken leg, only to find that his attending physician was the husband she had just gotten a marriage certificate with that morning!
...
Han Ze sat sideways on the chair, looking lazy and unruly. He glanced at Han Chen, took something out of his pocket and slapped it on the glass turntable on the round table.
A stack of five bank cards.
He pushed the turntable and turned the card in front of Han Chen. "It's your card. I stole it."
Han Chen turned the turntable back and said, "Take it back. I don't want it."
"Hey," Han Ze was furious. "I stole this from the old man with great effort and brought it all the way to you, and you don't even appreciate it."
Han Chen said nothing, his face dark.
Han Ji took the card back and placed it in front of Han Ze. "Don't you know Han Chen's character? He takes after his fifth uncle and has a very stubborn temper. Take it back quickly and put it back with grandpa."
Han Ze was so angry that he casually took one out and threw it on the table. "When the old man asked, I said I only took four. I don't know why one was missing."
"I don't want any of them," Han Chen said.
Han Ze was so angry that smoke was about to come out of his head, "You!"
He slapped the card on it, pulled it to the edge of the table, and put it back into his pocket along with the other four cards.
"More stubborn than me." Han Ze gritted his teeth.
Han Ji looked at him and smiled slightly.
He then asked Han Chen, "I heard from Aunt Wu that you bought a house in Dongjiang?"
Han Chen's expression improved: "Yeah."
"How many years has the loan been taken out? Can you afford it? Do you need our help?"
"Need not."
Han Ji nodded slightly and said nothing, seeming to respect Han Chen's ideas very much.
"Take some time to bring Miss Zhou home so Grandpa can meet her."
Han Chen turned his head away and said, "Let's talk about it later."
Liang Xinyun saw that Han Chen was a little reluctant, "Hui Zhang, how is Haoxuan doing recently? He will be promoted to the second grade soon, right?"
Han Ji smiled and replied, "I will be promoted to the second grade in September this year."
"Is he easy to take care of? Children of this age are very naughty, and his mother is under a lot of pressure. Although you are busy with work, you still have to pay more attention. It still takes both of you to take care of the child."
"Yes, Aunt Wu, I will definitely help you."
Liang Xinyun said to Han Ze earnestly, "Runhe, you too, don't stay abroad all the time. Go home more often to see your grandpa and your parents."
"Fifth Aunt, you are so biased. You allowed Han Chen to escape to Dongjiang, but you are pushing us back into the fire pit of home."
Han Ji lectured him, "You just listen to your elders when they speak. You have no respect for your elders."
Han Ze's mouth drooped and he glared at him, "Do you think everyone is like you, so good at pretending?"
Han Ji returned his glance, then immediately smiled and apologized to Liang Xinyun, saying, "Runhe grew up under your watch. He has been like this since he was a child. Please don't take it to heart."
Liang Xinyun smiled and shook her head. "Don't worry about it, don't worry about it. When you were little, Runhe was the funniest and the most mischievous. He always took Han Chen to climb the old locust tree in the backyard, and almost caused Han Chen to break his leg. Your third uncle scolded him a lot."
Han Ze suddenly perked up when he mentioned the past. "Aunt Wu, this isn't my fault. Han Chen climbed the tree himself. There was a bird's nest on the old locust tree. The first time I went up there, there were only two eggs. Later, he said he wanted to see what the newly hatched birds looked like, so he went up there on his own."
Han Ji glared at him: "Isn't it because you didn't show it to Han Chen, and you even provoked Han Chen to say, if you have the guts, go up by yourself?"
Han Ze was stunned for a moment.
Liang Xinyun looked at the children who were laughing and playing in front of the yard at that time. They have now grown into big boys. Memories came flooding back, accompanied by the loss of the passing years.
"At that time, you were just in elementary school, right?"
Han Ze said, "I'm in the third grade, Han Chen is in the first grade, and my second and third brothers are in the first grade of junior high school."
"Time flies," Liang Xinyun said.
"Yes," Han Ze turned to look at Han Chen: "Even Han Chen, the youngest of our generation, is getting married."
"What are you talking about?" Liang Xinyun said, "Are you the only one of your generation who is still single?"
Han Ze felt wronged. "I didn't expect that among the six of us brothers, I would be the last single one. No, there's also Han Jue."
"There's no rush to make a decision," Liang Xinyun said, "and he won't be pushed by your grandfather."
Han Ze was embarrassed and glanced at Han Ji secretly.
Han Ji said, "Aunt Wu, we are all hungry after talking so much."
"Look at me, I'm just thinking about reminiscing about the past," Liang Xinyun instructed Han Chen. "You two brothers have come all the way from the imperial capital, why don't you treat them well?"
Han Chen nodded and called the waiter to take the order.
Liang Xinyun was the oldest, so naturally she came first, but Liang Xinyun was not good at arranging things. Han Ze and Han Ji were guests, so she gave the menu to them to choose.
Han Ji said that he is not picky about food and it doesn’t matter what he eats.
Han Ze was different. He took the menu, flipped through a few pages, and ordered eight or nine dishes.
Han Ji was puzzled: "Have you been here?"
Han Ze: "How is that possible?"
Han Ji: "You're so familiar with ordering food, and you're still saying you've never been here before?"
Han Ze: "Usually, in restaurants like this, the signature dishes are on the first few pages. You can order from the first few pages and you won't go wrong."
Han Ji jokingly said, "Aren't you afraid of eating Han Chen out of money?"
Han Ze curled his lips and said, "Who told him not to accept my kindness?"
Han Chen's face turned grim. "You think you can bankrupt me with just one meal? I won't do that."
"Hey," Han Ze always felt that Han Chen was going against him again today.
Han Chen ignored him, took the menu and asked the waiter to take away half of it, and added a serving of duck tongue and black fish soup.
Han Ze had an expression of watching a good show, "Why did you go there? Can't you pay the bill?"
Han Chen: "It's a waste to order too much. The portions of food in this restaurant are very generous."
Han Ze and Han Ji looked at each other in shock.
"Fifth Aunt," Han Ze asked Liang Xinyun, "What's become of Han Chen these years? He wasn't like this before. He would spend all his New Year's money before the end of the year. Why is he so stingy now?"
Liang Xinyun couldn't help laughing, "Isn't saving food a good thing?"
Han Ze was speechless for a moment.
Han Ji advised: "Han Chen is the host, listen to him."
Zhou Mo, who was watching the whole conversation from the side, also secretly looked at Han Chen with surprise.
She was secretly happy in her heart. Han Ze complained about Han Chen being stingy... which inexplicably reminded her of Liu Xiangru complaining about herself.
Was Han Chen influenced by her?
Han Chen handed the menu to the waiter.
Han Ji suddenly stopped him and reminded him, "Don't forget Miss Zhou."
Han Chen: "I've ordered it."
Han Ji was stunned for a moment before realizing that the duck tongue and black fish soup he had ordered were actually for Zhou Mo.
Han Ji smiled helplessly as his younger brother inexplicably fed him such love.
To ease the awkwardness, he immediately turned the topic to Liang Xinyun and asked her how she was feeling recently.
Liang Xinyun said, "It's pretty good."
Han Ji: "Do you want to go back to the capital for more tests?"
Without waiting for Liang Xinyun to answer, Han Chen said, "The medical conditions here in Dongjiang are very good."
Liang Xinyun also said, "The First Hospital of Dongda University is also a nationally renowned hospital, and its cardiac surgery department is also well-known in the country. You don't have to go to the capital to see a doctor."
