At this point, Old Lady Mu looked toward Mu Baicheng and continued, "Chengcheng, when you have time, bring Guixiang to the hospital for a visit. This is a good opportunity for her to meet your sister."
Mu Baiyu snorted coldly, playing the double act with Old Lady Mu, "Mom, you are really becoming senile! You spoil Baicheng too much, marrying a woman like that, just you wait, there will be a day when our family is thrown into chaos!"
Old Lady Mu said with a smile, "I respect Chengcheng’s choice, you better speak less."
As he listened to the conversation between his mother and sister, Mu Baicheng found himself at a loss for words, completely stuck in his throat.
His mother had been so understanding, how could he then ask her to apologize to Lin Guixiang?
For a moment, Mu Baicheng’s mind was a whirl of thoughts, feeling like there was no right move to make.
Seeing her mother react this way, Mu Baiyu could only give in, "Since you’ve said so, what can I say as Baicheng’s sister?"
After saying this, Mu Baiyu looked at Mu Baicheng, "When do you plan to bring her over for me to take a look?"
"Maybe, in some time," Mu Baicheng hedged.
Mu Baiyu laughed, seeing right through Mu Baicheng’s hesitation, "In some time? Baicheng, that’s not like you. Could it be that she simply doesn’t want to accompany you to the hospital?"
Mu Baicheng didn’t know how to answer his sister’s question, after all, he wasn’t entirely sure he could persuade Lin Guixiang to visit the hospital to see his mother.
However, Lin Guixiang was so understanding, surely she could understand his position as a son, right?
It seemed he needed to find an opportunity to discuss this matter with her properly.
So, watching Mu Baicheng, Mu Baiyu remarked, "As a junior, is she not going to take the initiative to visit our mother, or should we wait for our mother to visit her instead?"
At that point, Mu Baiyu added, "Baicheng, you know our mother best. It’s already not easy for her to forgive your girlfriend after being angered like this. If she continues to overstep, it would be completely disrespectful."
"Sis, Ah Xiang is not that kind of person!" Mu Baicheng followed up, "Don’t worry, I will definitely bring Ah Xiang to see our mom."
Hearing this, Mu Baiyu and Old Lady Mu exchanged a glance, each seeing a knowing look in the other’s eyes.
Mu Baiyu’s smile didn’t reach her eyes as she said, "Then you better discuss it with your girlfriend soon, and don’t wait until our mom is discharged from the hospital without even a glimpse of her."
"Mm," Mu Baicheng acknowledged.
When Lin Guixiang returned to the company, she immediately went into a busy meeting.
The meeting lasted for more than two hours.
Only then was the plan finalized.
"If there’s nothing else, let’s adjourn," Lin Guixiang said as she rose from her chair.
After Lin Guixiang left, several senior executives also stood up.
Watching Lin Guixiang’s retreating figure, Zhao Cuinong quickly gathered her documents and followed Lin Guixiang’s steps.
"Sis, wait for me."
Lin Guixiang slowed her pace.
Zhao Cuinong lowered her voice and said, "Sis, has Mu Baicheng looked for you?"
"He has," Lin Guixiang nodded slightly.
Out of curiosity, Zhao Cuinong asked, "How did he explain it to you?"
Lin Guixiang relayed what Mu Baicheng had said to her.
Zhao Cuinong frowned slightly, "My God! The Old Lady Mu from the Mu family really knows how to make excuses. After causing such an ugly scene, she still claims it’s for the sake of her son. The key point is your boyfriend actually believed it."
Such a flimsy excuse, perhaps only Mu Baicheng could believe.
It must be the mother filter, perhaps.
At that moment, Zhao Cuinong paused and continued, "Sis, you must demand the Mu family show some attitude this time! You aren’t even married yet, and his mom is already toying with people like this. What will happen if you get married?"
"The only solution now is for Mu Baicheng to move out of his family’s house and keep a distance from those who can’t tell right from wrong."
"Also, I don’t think his daughter is an easy one to deal with either."
Actually, Zhao Cuinong wanted to say more, that Mu Baicheng’s family was unreliable and if Lin Guixiang really married him, there would likely be new conflicts and married life wouldn’t be very happy.
But Lin Guixiang and Mu Baicheng were still in the honeymoon phase of their relationship.
Moreover, if Mu Baicheng was truly willing to make a change for Lin Guixiang, such as moving out of his home, then there was a possibility of moving forward.
After all, there wasn’t an issue with Mu Baicheng as a person.
The problem was with his family.
On the road of love, it’s never all smooth sailing.
Lin Guixiang was silent, thinking, would Mu Baicheng compromise for her?
She didn’t know.
Zhao Cuinong went on, "Sis, it now all depends on whether Mu Baicheng is willing to change! You shouldn’t compromise with his family, and you certainly shouldn’t take Xiao Wu to the old Mu family’s home to be wronged."
"Mm," Lin Guixiang nodded faintly, then said, "Did you talk to Qiangzi about going to Country F?"
"I have, and he’s thrilled. After all, it’s Lin Bingqiang’s first time going abroad."
"Then let’s set off in a week. We should wrap up the business in Country F within half a month. That way, we’ll be back just in time for Lin Wu’s college entrance exams."
"Okay."
The next morning.
Zheng Niannian came to the hospital again to visit Old Lady Mu, massaging her shoulders and legs, giving her a full-body massage.
As Mu Baiyu walked into the ward, she witnessed such a warm scene and said, "Niannian, no wonder my mother adores you so much! If it were me, I’d want to whisk you away to be my daughter-in-law, too."
