Gu Bei wanted to go back with Lin Wanwan, but Lin Wanwan refused.
"Don't come with me. If my godmother finds out, I'll drive out of my way to buy some roast duck. I'll just say I'm going to buy food after I get the recipe."
"Hmm," Gu Bei responded softly.
"Are you sure you can handle this? How can I feel comfortable letting you get off the bus like this?"
Gu Bei looked at her with red eyes, "My mom will be alright, right?"
"Dr. Jin said everything will be alright, she'll definitely get better. Now we just need to get Godmother to retire and rest at home."
"Will everything be alright?"
Lin Wanwan didn't know how to comfort him, but her eyes also reddened.
The two composed themselves and went home separately.
When Lin Wanwan arrived home, Xu Zhang was already up.
"Godmother, why are you up?"
"Once you wake up, you'll get up."
Qian Qian saw that she had bought some things and scolded her playfully, "Why did you buy things again? We're cooking at home now."
Lin Wanwan smiled and said, "But I want to eat roast duck again. I'll eat more tonight."
Xu Zhang, seemingly lacking energy, leaned back on the sofa and said, "Mom, don't worry about her. If she likes it, let her eat. She's lost so much weight recently, it's good for her to eat more."
Lin Wanwan almost couldn't hold back her tears. She sat down next to her and leaned on her shoulder, saying, "Dr. Jin, your godmother, said that although your condition isn't serious, it's best if you don't go to work recently. Since you can't eat, it's best to rest at home."
Xu Zhang paused for a moment as he touched her head. "Okay."
Lin Wanwan sat up and looked at her. "I'm serious, I'm not joking."
“I’m not joking. I came back to Beijing to reunite with you all. I’m always so busy with work that I don’t get to spend much time with your grandparents. I’m taking advantage of this time when I’m not feeling well to rest and spend some time with you.”
Lin Wanwan nodded, "I'll call the aunt from my grandma's side tomorrow. She was in charge of the diet my grandma used to follow to help her recover. I'll ask her to come and take care of you."
"No need for that trouble."
Lin Wanwan interrupted her, "It's no trouble, there's no room for discussion. You just need to follow the diet plan and eat properly. Dr. Jin said that this is caused by not eating."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Lin Wanwan had dinner at the Xu family's house and didn't get home until almost 10 p.m.
As soon as she saw Lu Feng, she threw herself into his arms and started crying.
Lu Feng was puzzled by her crying and kept comforting her.
But Lin Wanwan's tears kept falling as if they were free.
She waited until she had finished crying before telling me about what happened that day.
Lu Feng was also shocked, but he kept comforting Lin Wanwan.
Lin Wanwan was in a bad mood, and her complexion hadn't been good for several days.
Xu Zhang's illness was kept secret from Lin Wanwan and Gu Beidou, and they didn't tell anyone except Lu Feng.
Lin Wanwan would also go over for meals from time to time, and even He Yumei noticed that something was wrong.
"Why have you been coming here so often lately? Did you have a fight with Lu Feng?"
Lin Wanwan looked completely bewildered. "I didn't. Is it wrong for me to come and see you?"
He Yumei patted her on the shoulder and said, "Tell the truth."
"Really, no, Lu Feng will come over after he gets off work and picks up the kids."
He Yumei looked at her strangely, "Are you really alright?"
"It's nothing. By the way, Mom, my godmother isn't feeling well. Would you like to come with my godmother to stay at her garden in Jiangnan for a few days?"
"I'm fine with it, but is it possible for your godmother, who is in poor health, to travel this far?"
Lin Wanwan thought for a moment and said, "How about this, bring both sets of grandparents, and I'll also invite Aunt Chen and my mother-in-law. You can go and have a good time and stay for a while."
Actually, Lin Wanwan had asked Jin Hai before that Xu Zhang was able to eat now, looked much better than before, and had no problem going out to play.
"Go tell your godmother to come with you to play."
He Yumei looked at her strangely, "Why don't you go and say it yourself?"
Lin Wanwan remained calm and said with a smile, "Mom, if I go and tell her that my godmother will think I'm spending too much money, you should go and invite her. Just consider it as her keeping you company."
He Yumei thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, I'll go talk to her."
Lin Wanwan smiled and took her arm. "Then call me when you've made up your minds, and I'll take care of the rest."
He Yumei turned her head to look at her daughter, who was acting coquettishly. "Have you been having nightmares lately? Why haven't you gained any weight even though you've had some free time? In fact, you've gotten even thinner."
Lin Wanwan paused for a moment, then shook her head. "It's okay, I'm just nervous. I'm afraid if I don't do well, I'll have to do it all over again."
He Yumei sighed and said, "Mom doesn't have high expectations for you. I just hope you're happy. If this matter makes you feel bad, Mom hopes you can give it up. You're so good at business now. Even your maternal grandfather and uncles praise you. Look at your former neighbors and your father's colleagues, who doesn't envy us for having such a good daughter? You're already great in your father's and mother's eyes. You don't need to do any better. Mom hopes you can be happier."
Lin Wanwan was moved to tears. Ever since she transmigrated, everyone around her had cared for and loved her, cherishing her like a precious gem.
She sniffed and said, "Mom, I know, but I've tried so hard for so long and I still want to see the result. If it really doesn't work out, your daughter isn't the kind of person who can't let go."
Lu Feng picked up the child after work.
Lin Wanwan and He Yumei went downstairs to the Xu family's house.
As soon as Lin Wanwan arrived at the Xu family home, she hugged Qian Qian and Xu Zhang and acted coquettishly.
The two men couldn't do anything with her, so they hugged her and kissed her affectionately.
Qian Qian laughed non-stop, "You've been coming so often lately, and you're still so fond of acting cute."
Gu Bei said with a smile, "You two spoil her. If she doesn't act cute with you two, who else will she act cute with?"
Xu Zhang glared at him, "Mind your own business, shut up and stop pissing me off."
Lin Wanwan looked at him smugly and said, "I'm the biological daughter, so you stay behind and stop tattling on me."
Gu Bei looked speechless and turned to tease the two kids.
Xu Zhe looked at her and asked, "You've been resting for almost half a month, how come you haven't gained any weight?"
Just as Lin Wanwan was about to say something, Lu Feng started complaining again, "She's not studying anymore, and she's busy with company matters again. We never see her all day."
Xu Zhe looked at her disapprovingly, "If you're going to rest, then rest properly. Let others handle the company's affairs first. Look how thin you've become."
Qian Qian also said with a smile, "Your grandfather was so worried. He said you haven't gained any weight and are getting thinner and thinner."
Xu Zhe looked a little awkward.
Lin Wanwan said nonchalantly, "The company has been busy lately, how can I just sit back and do nothing? The policies are good now, I have to seize the time to make money. Everyone is doing business like they're robbing for money, of course I can't be left behind."
Xu Zhe said with a straight face, "Can you earn all the money in the world? You always need to give yourself a break."
Lin Wanwan said with a smile, "Okay, I understand, Grandpa. I've been busy with charity work lately. Once the office is set up, we can help more people."
They all knew that Lin Wanwan had established a charity, but Xu Zhe was still very pleased and praised her to everyone he met.
Xu Zhe said anxiously, "You still need to take care of your health. Look how thin you've become."
