"yes"
Wen Gaohan laughed out loud.
"She's a smart girl."

Hospital
When Qiao Wanyue returned to the ward, she didn't see Lu Rong. She asked the nurse and learned that Lu Rong had gone down to the garden for a walk because she had been lying down for too long.
Qiao Wanyue searched downstairs for a while and finally found Lu Rong by a lake. An elderly man with white hair was sitting next to her, and a child with bandages was sitting in the middle.
"mom?"
Qiao Wanyue walked over, and Lu Rong smiled and led her to sit down.
Sitting next to Lu Rong were the old lady from next door and the child Lu Rong had rescued.
The child turned his head in confusion upon hearing the sound, his eyes like a stagnant pool.
That's not the look a three-year-old should have.
Other people's business is none of her concern.
The old lady's family affairs were too complicated, and Qiao Wanyue didn't want to cause any trouble. "Mom, let me take you to the cafeteria for lunch."
The old woman chimed in, "Someone brought us food, why don't we eat together?"
Qiao Wanyue politely declined, saying, "Grandma, thank you for your kindness, but I've already gotten my food. It would be a waste not to eat it. You already thanked me during the day, so there's no need to thank me again."
The old woman was shrewd; she could easily tell that Qiao Wanyue didn't want to get involved with them.
But since her grandson was in low spirits, those wolves and tigers all wanted to eat her baby. She brought the baby to the garden, and the child's mood improved a bit when he saw Lu Rong's depressed mood, meeting his grandson's expectant gaze.
How could she bear to let her grandson be disappointed?
"My grandson likes your mother-in-law, how about I bring my child and eat with you?" The old lady looked at Qiao Wanyue pleadingly.
Qiao Wanyue twitched the corner of her mouth.
The old lady was wearing fabric that could only be imported, her white hair was neatly combed, she wore small pearl earrings, and she had light lipstick on her lips. Even in this era, she could wear jewelry and still exude such wealth and elegance, her whole demeanor was naturally refined.
That family must be either very rich or very powerful.
Wealthy families often have many unsavory affairs, and she didn't want to get involved.
"Grandma, the child has just been injured, so he'll definitely be eating something special. We won't join in the fun. My mother-in-law and I will be leaving now." Qiao Wanyue pulled Lu Rong away. Lu Rong had learned her lesson and understood her daughter-in-law's repeated refusals. Wanyue wasn't a heartless person; she must have her reasons for refusing. She smiled憨厚ly, lowered her head, and followed Qiao Wanyue away.
After taking two steps, I felt resistance in my legs.
Lu Rong turned around and saw that Little Pudding was hugging her leg tightly, her eyes glistening with tears, her gaze pleading, and a hint of red at the corner of her eye.
Little Pudding's crying face looked just like Lu Hui's.
She couldn't help but think of her little grandson.
Qiao Wanyue turned around and saw her mother-in-law's gentle features, her hand unconsciously touching the little pudding.
Lu Rong naturally knew what was important and what wasn't. Since Wan Yue had refused, she wouldn't embarrass her daughter-in-law.
She took out the candy she had brought for her grandson from her pocket, smiled and stuffed it into the little boy's hand, then picked him up and put him in the old woman's arms before turning around and pulling Qiao Wanyue away.
Qiao Wanyue breathed a sigh of relief.
She had just been thinking about how to persuade her mother-in-law. It wasn't that she was heartless, but the little boy's family was too complicated, and his stepmother was not someone to be trifled with. They had only met by chance, and there was no need to get involved in other people's affairs.
At the canteen, Qiao Wanyue used money and tickets to buy three dishes and a soup. Lu Heng went to the guesthouse to change his clothes, so she would just bring him a meal when he returned. There weren't many people in the canteen, so Qiao Wanyue found a clean table and the two of them sat down.
"It's not my child, why should I feel sorry for it!"
As soon as I sat down, a woman screamed from next door.
