When Zhuang Xiaoting saw the photo Zhuang Tunan gave her of Song Ying, her expression changed immediately. She tried to snatch it away, afraid that Song Ying would see the photo.

Unfortunately, Zhuang Xiaoting's hands were still too slow.

When Song Ying received the photo and saw it, her face immediately darkened, growing increasingly grim. She then handed the photo to Lin Wufeng and said, "Take a look! It's your son's!"

Lin Wufeng looked at the photo, his face hardening, and said, "I'm going to make a phone call!"

After speaking, he quickly walked into the alleyway and arrived at Yiming's convenience store. He said to Yiming's mother inside, "Sister-in-law, I need to make a phone call!"

When Yiming's mother looked up and saw Lin Wufeng, she was both surprised and delighted, and said, "Oh my, Engineer Lin is back! Let's get started!"

Lin Wufeng immediately dialed the phone number at Lin Dongzhe's company. After a short while, he heard someone on the other end of the line say, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for Lin Dongzhe!"

"Lin Dongzhe? Oh, you're looking for Lin Dongzhe? He's not with our company anymore!"

"What? He's no longer with your company!"

"Yes, I heard he succeeded in starting his own business and became a small business owner!"

"Okay, I understand, that's settled!"

After hanging up the phone, Lin Wufeng asked Yiming's mother, "Sister-in-law! How much is it?"

"Forget it! You've come all this way, you're a rare guest!"

"No, no, let's keep it the same amount!"

"One yuan, please!"

Lin Wufeng paid and walked out. When he got to the newsstand, he said to Song Ying, "This kid is too lawless. He actually started his own company and became a boss?"

Song Ying looked at Lin Wufeng with some disbelief and said, "What? He became a boss? Where did he get the money to start a company?"

Lin Wufeng shrugged and said, "How would I know!"

Song Ying hurriedly turned to Zhuang Xiaoting and asked, "What's going on? Why isn't he taking such a good, high-paying job? What is he planning to do?"

Zhuang Xiaoting lowered her head in shame and said, "After Lin Dongzhe returned to Shanghai, he became a completely different person. He doesn't say a word to me and spends all his time with his cronies, either playing cards or drinking! I couldn't stop him!"

"Then what's the point of your dad buying you this mobile phone? Call your dad! Tell him, and see if he doesn't teach him a lesson! He's gone too far, really!"

"It's not that I don't want to make the call, it's that I'm afraid Lin Dongzhe will complain that I only know how to tattle!"

"That's great now, no need to tattle anymore, things have gone wrong right away!"

Hearing those somewhat harsh words, Zhuang Xiaoting felt a little wronged, her lips trembled, and she almost burst into tears.

Just then, Zhuang Xiaoting's mobile phone suddenly rang. Zhuang Xiaoting was startled when she heard the sound, then took out her mobile phone from her bag, pressed the answer button, and said, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

Lin Dongzhe's voice came through the microphone, saying, "Who am I looking for? Haha, of course I'm looking for you, it's me, Lin Dongzhe!"

Upon hearing that it was Lin Dongzhe, Zhuang Xiaoting hurriedly handed the mobile phone to Lin Wufeng and said, "Dad! Lin Dongzhe!"

Lin Wufeng took the mobile phone and said, "Hey kid, where are you?"

"Oh, Dad! I'm busy outside. Why are you with Xiaoting? Didn't she go home? Shouldn't she be with Mom and Dad or Brother Tunan?"

"Your mother and I are back. You should come back too, come back into the alley!"

"Dad, I can't! I'm busy these days! If you want to play, let Xiaoting keep you company!"

"Pah! I don't care how busy you are right now, you have to come back. Otherwise, don't call me Dad, and your mom won't acknowledge you as her son!"

"Dad, what's wrong? Why are you so angry?"

"When you come back, I'll break your legs first!"

"Ah! Dad, Dad!"

Lin Wufeng didn't allow him to speak again, hung up the phone, and handed it to Zhuang Xiaoting.

Song Ying looked at Lin Wufeng with a surprised and suspicious gaze, and said, "What? You hung up?"

"What if I don't hang up on him? Just wait for him to get angry at me? When I see him, we'll have a mixed doubles match, and I refuse to believe I can't beat him!"

Song Ying rolled her eyes at Lin Wufeng and said, "Do you think he'll be like when he was a kid, sticking his butt out for you to spank? He's all grown up now. If he puts his weight on us, we'll both probably be on the ground!"

Lin Wufeng suddenly sighed and said, "Lin Dongzhe has grown up? He's grown up, and we're getting old too, so he's a bit harder to manage!"

"Why bring him up? It's upsetting. Let's go see our in-laws!"

"Walk!"

Zhuang Tunan watched the three of them leave before he began to help Zhang Min with her business.

Song Ying and her husband quickly arrived at the hospital with Zhuang Xiaoting and saw Zhuang Chaoying carefully serving Huang Ling her meal.

Song Ying quickly leaned over and said, "Brother Zhuang, shall I feed Sister Ling?"

These words startled Zhuang Chaoying and his wife, who immediately turned to look. Upon seeing Song Ying, Huang Ling couldn't control herself and tears streamed down her face. She exclaimed, "Song Ying, why are you back again?"

Although Song Ying had a smile on her face, she was also very emotional and almost shed tears. Huang Ling looked haggard, and her hair was clearly gray. Song Ying felt sorry for her and said, "Sister Ling, how come you've looked like this for the past few days? I'm so sorry, Sister Ling. I left in a hurry a few days ago and didn't come to say goodbye. I've been feeling really bad about it, and seeing you like this now makes me even more regretful!"

Huang Ling gave a wry smile and said, "Sigh, I'm getting old. I'm sorry to have made you laugh at me. I can't even dress myself up while I'm lying in this hospital bed, so I look like a complete mess. I'm so sorry, Song Ying! This is how it is when you get old!"

Song Ying couldn't hold back her tears. With tears streaming down her face, she sat down next to Huang Ling, grabbed Huang Ling's hands, and said, "My dear Ling-jie, just think about how beautiful and dashing you were when you were young. I really can't accept the way you are now!"

Huang Ling smiled again, then braced herself on the bed with both hands and tried to sit up.

Song Ying hurriedly stood up to help her, but Huang Ling said, "I'm fine, I'm fine. I can sit up. Although I'm very old, my hands and feet are still quite nimble."

Although Song Ying felt very sorry for Huang Ling, in order not to embarrass Huang Ling any further, she said with a smile, "My sister, I never said you couldn't take care of yourself! You have to get better soon. I've decided, I'm not leaving. I want to stay with you every day and never be apart!"

Song Ying's words surprised everyone present, especially Lin Wufeng. However, he knew that Song Ying was worried about Huang Ling, and the two were like sisters. So when Song Ying acted impulsively, she might make any decision, and he couldn't go against her. Therefore, he said, "Yes, yes, Sister Ling, Song Ying won't go back. Let her stay with you until you're old!"

Huang Ling then believed her and said, "Okay, okay, that's great! But what about your business in Guangzhou?"

Song Ying said, "I've asked Wu Feng to go back and sell off the stuff there these past two days, so he won't be so busy all the time!"

"Then you won't be able to make a lot of money, isn't that a pity?"

"There's no limit to how much money I can make, as long as I have enough to live on. Right now, the only thing I'm worried about is you, my dear sister!"

"Thank you, Song Ying, for still caring about me so much!"

"We're like family! It's only right!"

Just then, two people entered the ward. It was Xiang Pengfei leading Zhou Yuxiang in.

As soon as Xiang Pengfei saw Song Ying, he said, "Auntie, you're back!"

"Yes, I was worried about your aunt, so I came back!"

"That's great! I took Yuxiang to get our marriage certificate today. My aunt will be discharged from the hospital in a few days, and then we'll hold a wedding banquet. It's partly for the wedding, and partly to bring good luck to my aunt. I wish her a long and happy life!"

Song Ying quickly turned to Huang Ling and said, "Sister Ling, did you hear that? Pengfei is so filial! I wish you a long and healthy life!"
