Lin Yueru went to the restroom, took out a makeup mirror, eyebrow pencil, lipstick, and face powder from her pocket, carefully touched up her makeup, and finally tidied her clothes.
Her hair wasn't styled; she wanted to appear busy and ambitious, which they would definitely like.
After getting everything ready, I walked back to my office. The moment I opened the door, I saw them and feigned surprise, saying...
"Uncle Gu, Aunt Cai, what brings you here?"
Cai Wei looked Lin Yueru up and down; her face was full of energy and vitality, and the more she looked at her, the more satisfied she became.
"We came to see you and to see if you have any free time in the next day or two. We were thinking of inviting you to dinner, is that alright?"
Lin Yueru instantly understood; this was an invitation to arrange a blind date dinner for them.
"Auntie! I have time to eat, just tell me what time!"
Cai Wei stood up and said, "Then it's settled. I'll come find you then."
Lin Yueru: "Okay! If I'm not in the office, you can just tell the nurses where you'll be eating and when, and they'll pass it on to me."
Cai Wei looked at the messy hair and said, "You, child, are you too busy with work? Your hair is all messed up."
Lin Yueru quickly took off the wig and then retied her hair. "There's no way around it, pediatricians are just too busy. No matter what the illness, they all want to see me. I'm so busy I barely have time to breathe!"
Cai Wei knew Lin Yueru was a doctor, but she didn't expect her to be a pediatrician.
"Your job is great. After you have children, you won't need to go to the hospital when you're sick. You can treat them at home!"
Lin Yueru was very pleased with the compliment. "That's true, but there are some illnesses I can't treat and I need equipment to treat them."
Gu Dongsheng: "You're still being quite modest."
Lin Yueru smiled happily. She had easily won over the two elders, and now all that was left was to meet Gu Lingxiao.
She's already picked out her clothes, guaranteeing that every man who sees her will never forget her!
At the same time, she was also looking forward to seeing that face that was both familiar and unfamiliar.
When she was a child, she was bullied by the children in the yard. It was Gu Lingyu who stood up for her and chased those children away.
The boy's tall figure and white shirt remained etched in her memory.
Because of their age difference, they went to different schools and had very few opportunities to meet. But whenever they did meet, she would silently watch over the boy!
She burst into tears when she received news of the boy's death in a car accident.
The mother was terrified. The situation was in complete chaos, and no one knew that she was crying because of the boy's death.
Although Gu Lingxiao is not the boy she remembers, they have the same face, so he can be used as a substitute!
She will keep this secret forever, until the day she dies!
She chatted and laughed all the way to the door, watched them get into the car, and then turned back to the hospital to do her incredibly tedious work.
On the bus.
Cai Wei excitedly told her husband, "We've really got our eye on Xiaoru! She speaks so well, does a perfect job, and most importantly, she's beautiful. If she has a baby, it'll definitely be gorgeous, not ugly!"
Seeing his wife's excited expression, Gu Dongsheng had to pour cold water on her enthusiasm.
"All of this is contingent on Ling Xiao breaking off his relationship with other women; otherwise, your hopes are dashed!"
"I'll definitely break it off. If he doesn't break it off with that woman, I'll kill myself!" Cai Wei said confidently. "He's my son, whom I carried for ten months and gave birth to. He has to listen to me when it comes to choosing a wife!"
The driver chuckled, "Ma'am, you're being too forceful. Are you afraid of driving your son away?"
Cai Wei: "How could I have driven him away? He's my son!"
The driver turned the car around. "A similar situation happened in our village. The young man wanted to marry the girl, but his parents disagreed. And then they broke up—"
Cai Wei immediately became interested, "And then what happened?"
The driver said, "Later, the girl married someone else, and the young man couldn't accept it. He developed some kind of mental illness and became like a child!"
Cai Wei was taken aback at first, then quickly realized what was happening.
"Can't you speak properly? My son is a soldier, how could he be like that?"
"Ma'am, I was just saying that offhand. Whether you like it or not is up to you!" The driver brought the car to a smooth stop, then turned around and said to them, "Two yuan!"
Cai Wei reluctantly paid the driver the money she had taken out of her pocket, and said to him as she was getting out of the car,
"No business is conducted like this! Don't you dare spout nonsense again!"
The driver smiled, watching the car door slam shut.
"I really need to watch my mouth from now on. People like that won't listen to advice no matter what. It's just a pity for that couple; what kind of parents did they have!"
Cai Wei said indignantly to her husband, "Don't listen to that person's nonsense. He's just talking nonsense. How could a person be like that?"
Gu Dongsheng's heart was in turmoil. He took his wife's hand and said, "Why don't we just forget about it? A life partner is a big deal. We can't make decisions for our son. If we're going to choose him, let's choose someone he likes!"
"No way! That woman isn't good enough for my son. She's 29 years old, and who knows what's wrong with her? Otherwise, why would she still be single?" Cai Wei started going crazy without thinking. "My son is so outstanding, how can he marry a woman like that!"
Gu Dongsheng gripped his wife's shoulders with both hands. "Can you calm down? We're discussing our son, not what we're doing. He's been separated from us all these years; he's long been an independent person. Remember, you can't force a relationship!"
