One side is his mother, the other is his lover.
Mu Baicheng’s situation was also very difficult.
"Then I’ll go with you! It just so happens I’m free lately, I can take care of Aunt Mu. You and Xiaoxiao, one’s a grown man and the other a young girl, surely don’t have as much experience in caring for the elderly as I do." After saying this, Zheng Niannian looked up at Mu Baicheng.
On hearing this, Mu Baicheng was stunned.
Zheng Niannian was also going?
His first reaction was to refuse.
After all, their two families were not very close, and it wouldn’t be suitable for Zheng Niannian, a young girl, to take care of Old Lady Mu.
Mu Baicheng was about to refuse when the phone rang again.
It was Mu Xiaoxiao calling.
Mu Baicheng slightly turned and answered the phone, "Xiaoxiao, what’s wrong? Did something happen to your grandma?"
Hearing this, Zheng Niannian also appeared anxious.
Mu Xiaoxiao continued: "Grandma is still the same. Dad, did Aunt Zheng come to find you at home?"
"Yes, she came." Mu Baicheng replied.
"I was the one who called Aunt Zheng and asked her to go to Qing City with you, so please don’t refuse her." Mu Xiaoxiao paused and added, "Although we can hire a caregiver here, I’m still not entirely at ease with a stranger taking care of Grandma. Aunt Zheng studied nursing before and knows more than I do. Plus, Grandma gets along well with her, having her there to care for Grandma will allow you to handle your and Aunt Lin’s affairs with peace of mind."
Mu Baicheng frowned subtly, about to say something, just as Mu Xiaoxiao spoke again, "Dad, I am considering this for your sake. Think about it, after you arrive in Qing City, will you really have time to care for Grandma? You will definitely need to accompany Aunt Lin, and you don’t need to worry about Aunt Lin misunderstanding your relationship with Aunt Zheng, since she is clear-headed. Besides, this is an arrangement between me and Aunt Zheng and has nothing to do with you. Aunt Lin is so understanding, surely she won’t make things difficult for you over such a trifle."
"Therefore, you really don’t need to feel pressured."
Mu Baicheng had initially been very resistant to Zheng Niannian accompanying him, especially since he already had a girlfriend, but after hearing his daughter’s words, he immediately dismissed his reservations.
His daughter was right.
Lin Guixiang was gentle, generous, and understanding, and surely wouldn’t misunderstand his relationship with Zheng Niannian.
After hanging up the phone, Mu Baicheng looked at Zheng Niannian, "Miss Zheng, I’ll have to trouble you then."
"Brother Baicheng, you’re too polite." Zheng Niannian smiled and said, "My mom passed away early, I never had the chance to care for her, now being able to take care of Aunt Mu is also my good fortune, it’s not troubling at all."
As she finished speaking, Zheng Niannian added, "Let’s hurry, or else we’ll miss the plane."
"Yes." Mu Baicheng followed Zheng Niannian’s pace.
Qing City.
Old Lady Mu lay in the hospital bed, "Xiaoxiao, have you arranged everything?"
"Don’t worry, with me here, I definitely won’t mess this up." Mu Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes, a glint in her gaze.
This time, she intended to make Lin Guixiang understand what regret was!
Old Lady Mu nodded, then asked, "What about your aunt?"
The daughter had been living abroad, and ever since she returned to the country, Old Lady Mu hadn’t seen Mu Baiyu again.
The bigger the issue, the sooner Mu Baicheng would realize the seriousness of the matter.
As long as she was here, Lin Guixiang would never be able to step through the Mu Family’s door!
Thinking of how Lin Guixiang dared to conspire with that old thing to insult her, Old Lady Mu trembled with anger.
"I’ve also notified her." Mu Xiaoxiao nodded, "Aunt heard you were hospitalized and immediately bought a ticket for today, she should arrive in Qing City by tomorrow morning."
Knowing her daughter would arrive in Qing City the next morning, Old Lady Mu suddenly felt much more assertive.
Lin Guixiang hadn’t informed Lin Wu about this.
After all, her daughter was about to take her university entrance exam.
She didn’t want this incident to affect her daughter’s exams.
Just then.
Knocking sounds came from outside.
Lin Guixiang went to open the door.
It wasn’t anyone else.
It was Zhao Cuinong.
"Cuinong."
Zhao Cuinong nodded, "Is Xiao Wu around?"
Lin Guixiang lowered her voice, "She’s studying in the study room."
"Then shall we talk in your bedroom?" Zhao Cuinong suggested.
"Yes."
The two headed to Lin Guixiang’s bedroom.
Once in the bedroom, Zhao Cuinong closed the door before speaking, "Sister, I heard about today’s incident from my mom! I really didn’t expect the old lady from the Mu Family to be that kind of person, how do you plan to handle this?"
Hearing this, Lin Guixiang sighed, "I haven’t decided yet."
Zhao Cuinong looked at Lin Guixiang, "I can actually understand your situation, after all, this matter doesn’t really involve Mr. Mu that much. But with his kind of family, if you really marry him, you’ll have issues to face in the future."
