Chapter 329 Support each other and weather the storm together
Lin Rencheng has recovered well and can now get out of bed and walk around.
When Meng Anran arrived at the hospital, Fang Zelan was accompanying him for rehabilitation.
"Rongrong just called and said that this month's salary has been paid and the commission is quite high. When you feel better in a while, I will take you on a trip." Fang Zelan supported her husband and walked slowly forward.
Lin Rencheng's eyes were filled with relief. "Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, my daughter has grown up and is able to make money."
"Yeah." Fang Zelan sighed, her tone full of pride. "When she first said she wanted to make short videos, you didn't agree! Look, now she's only eighteen, and she can take us on a trip."
"Right, right, right." Lin Rencheng patted the back of his wife's hand, the doting in his eyes never diminishing in the slightest over the years. "My wife is so outstanding, the daughter she raises will surely be outstanding too!"
"You are such a sweet talker!" Fang Zelan moaned, her smile full of sweetness.
The couple supported each other, talked and laughed, and looked very happy.
Meng Anran slowed down her pace, looked at them quietly, and a smile unconsciously appeared on her lips.
I couldn't help but wonder, if I would be able to live a simple yet warm life like this after I marry Qin Mu.
Have children and grow old together.
"Hey? President An is here?" Fang Zelan was the first to see Meng Anran and waved at her with a smile.
Meng Anran walked over and greeted her with a smile: "Lin Lu, sister-in-law, happy new year."
"Happy New Year." Lin Rencheng's face was rosy and he looked very energetic. Seeing Meng Anran coming over, his mood became even better. "Will there be good news in the new year?"
Hearing him asking about the progress of the case so impatiently, Meng Anran smiled helplessly and handed the gift in her hand to Fang Zelan: "I came to pay New Year's greetings today and brought some supplements."
"Why are you still so polite?" Fang Zelan glanced at the gift boxes, her eyes full of shock. They were all filled with top-quality fish maw, bird's nest, and cordyceps. "I've made you spend money again."
"That's nothing." Meng Anran smiled and waved her hands, her eyes falling on Lin Rencheng, "I have a better gift for Lin Lu."
Lin Rencheng immediately understood and hurriedly said, "Let's go back to the ward and talk!"
The three of them quickly moved back to the VIP ward. After helping Lin Rencheng sit on the sofa, Fang Zelan temporarily left with the excuse of going to buy something to drink.
"How is it? Did Bai Yujin find any new information?" Lin Rencheng had been lying in this hospital for a long time and wanted to know whether the evidence he had risked his life to retrieve had come in handy.
"Not only did we find new information," Meng Anran pulled a document from her bag and handed it to him. "Bai Yujin has been apprehended, and the police have traced her to the fact that she was packaging illegal drugs as health supplements and selling them to vulnerable groups. The pharmaceutical manufacturing dens and laboratories have all been busted, and the criminal gang has been completely wiped out."
Upon hearing the good news, Lin Rencheng widened his eyes in shock, but at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.
The case was progressing much more smoothly than he had imagined. Now that the criminal had been apprehended, it seemed that justice would soon be served to the victims.
After he opened the folder Meng Anran handed him, he couldn't help but frowned in confusion: "Lawsuit?"
"Yes." Meng Anran nodded and said, "I saw Bai Yujin this morning. She wasn't in a good mental state. I'm worried that her mental illness might reduce her sentence, so I've teamed up with some of the victims' families to sue her. She must receive the punishment she deserves."
Lin Rencheng nodded in approval and glanced at the names on the document. The plaintiff's representative was Kona, who had lost her sister seven years ago.
He understood Meng Anran's intention in coming here to find him today. She hoped that he could do his best in court to prevent Bai Yujin from relying on "mental illness" to escape the punishment he deserved.
"Don't worry, Bai Yujin has killed so many innocent people and destroyed so many happy families. She should pay the price for this." Lin Rencheng said firmly. He believed that he had the ability to avenge the victims.
The sun is shining outside the window, shining on the green plants in the ward.
Meng Anran saw the pot of vibrant green ivy and suddenly asked, "Lin Lu, what are your plans after this is completely over?"
Lin Rencheng followed her gaze, a gentle smile playing on his lips. "Take some time off and take your wife and children on a trip. Rongrong has always wanted to go to Disneyland. I've been so busy with the lawsuit these years that I didn't realize the children have grown up so much."
He paused, "What about you? Is it time to put your marriage with Qin Mu on the agenda?"
Meng Anran was stunned for a moment, the corners of her lips curled up unconsciously: "It's time to put it on the agenda. After going through all the ups and downs, I can confirm that he is the one who can accompany me all the way."
As he was speaking, the door of the ward was gently pushed open.
Fang Zelan came in with three cups of hot drinks and said with a smile, "Are you done talking? I bought a black tea latte. I wonder if Mr. An is used to it."
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Meng Anran stood up and took it. The warmth from her fingertips warmed her heart. "Sister-in-law, you are so polite. Just call me Anran."
"Okay." Fang Zelan sat down next to Lin Rencheng and asked with concern, "How are you? Are you feeling well? The doctor said you shouldn't overwork yourself."
"It's okay." Lin Rencheng held his wife's hand. "There's good news. The criminal I investigated last time has been apprehended."
Fang Zelan's eyes lit up. "Really? That's great... You've been worrying about this all this time. Now you can finally sleep peacefully, right?"
Meng Anran looked at the couple's tightly clasped hands and suddenly felt that perhaps this was the most beautiful form of love—
Support each other and weather the storm together.
She lowered her head and took a sip of the latte; the sweetness was just right.
At this moment, the phone vibrated. It was a message from Qin Mu: [Baby, are you free tomorrow? I want to take you to meet my grandparents.]
Meng Anran's lips curled up unconsciously as she replied, "A formal visit? If you push me to get married then, I won't be able to handle it."
After sending the message, I realized that there were other people in the ward. When I looked up, I was met with the mischievous smiles of Lin Rencheng and his wife.
"I can tell from your expression that it must be Qin Mu, right?" Lin Rencheng joked.
Meng Anran coughed lightly and changed the subject: "Well... the trial of the Baige case is still about a month away. As for the lawsuit, we can discuss the details after you get better."
Lin Rencheng chuckled: "Okay, I will take good care of myself and appear in court in high spirits. But how long will you have to wait for your wedding with Qin Mu?"
Meng Anran pursed her lips and didn't respond.
The sunlight filtered through the window, casting a warm glow on the three of them.
Outside the window, the snow is melting and spring seems to be not far away.
