Yanzi stopped crying immediately, wiped away her tears, and left looking aggrieved.
As soon as Fang's mother saw her leave, she quickly and affectionately pulled Lin Zhaoyue close, saying, "Zhaoyue, Yanzi isn't very cultured. Please don't take any harsh words she might have said to heart. I still want to thank Leiluo for this surgery. It's a pity that you two were destined to be apart. Alas, it's too late to say anything now."
Lin Zhaoyue subtly withdrew her hand, her smile stiffening. "I didn't perform his surgery this time; it was my teacher, Professor Liao. If you want to thank him, go thank him. I have other things to attend to, so I'll leave now."
"Okay, okay, you go ahead with your work." Fang's mother watched Lin Zhaoyue walk away expectantly, while Fang's father cleared his throat. "What are you looking at?"
"What do you think I'm looking at? Of course, it's the woman who almost became our daughter-in-law."
After saying this, Fang's mother sighed, "Alas, if you ask me, it's just that our son is unlucky. Whether it's Yanzi whom he married now or Ren Zhaodi whom he married before, neither of them are good people. Whether it's their looks or their education, how can they compare to Lin Zhaoyue! I heard that the Lin family is fine now. It's such a pity that he missed out on such a good daughter-in-law."
"Who can see both the past and the future? If our son had married Lin Zhaoyue back then, I would still feel uneasy about it."
The Lin family might implicate Leiluo.
Who can really explain this kind of thing?
Mr. Fang waved his hand, as if unwilling to continue the conversation, "Let's hurry and stay with our son. Didn't you say the surgery was over? Why can't we go in yet?"
"Didn't you hear what the nurse just said? After the surgery, they need to be observed inside. There's no rush."
Fang's mother replied absentmindedly, her eyes still fixed on the direction Lin Zhaoyue had left in.
...
Fang Leiluo was in good physical condition and was transferred to a regular ward on the third day after his surgery. The first thing he wanted to do after waking up was to see Lin Zhaoyue.
Fang's mother frowned. "They're busy. Can't we wait until you've fully recovered before talking about it?"
Yanzi stood by the bed, her eyes filled with jealousy. Couldn't Fang Leiluo see her, a grown woman?!
Although he had been taking care of her at the hospital these past few days, Fang Leiluo was thinking about someone else.
"What are you still standing here for? Hurry up and go call Dr. Lin." Fang's mother waved her hand dismissively and ordered Yanzi to run the errand.
When Yanzi responded, her face showed a hint of grievance, "Okay, I know."
"He always looks so gloomy; anyone who didn't know better would think someone in his family had died," Fang's mother muttered under her breath.
Mr. Fang clicked his tongue. "What nonsense are you spouting? Spit it out right now!"
Fang's mother spat several times in agreement, as it was indeed quite unlucky.
Fang Leiluo lay flat on his back. During his coma, he kept hearing Lin Zhaoyue's voice, whether it was his imagination or not.
It now seems that it was not a delusion at all; he has been sent back to Beijing, and Lin Zhaoyue was involved in his surgery.
Thinking this, Fang Leiluo forced himself to sit up, wanting to present his best self to Lin Zhaoyue.
"What are you doing?" Fang's mother tried to hold down Fang Leiluo's shoulder to stop him from moving around, somewhat worried. "Your incision hasn't healed yet, lying down is the same as talking."
"Mother, when I had surgery this time, was Zhaoyue worried about me?" Fang Leiluo asked cautiously.
If Lin Zhaoyue is worried, it means she has feelings for him.
"Leiluo, where were you all this time?" Fang's mother really didn't want to upset her son at this critical juncture. If he had just married Lin Zhaoyue peacefully back then, none of this would have happened. Lin Zhaoyue even gave birth to twins, while Yanzi's womb is useless; she can't lay a single egg!
There are even rumors in the village now that Fang Leiluo has a health problem, otherwise how could he have changed two wives and neither of them could get pregnant?
When it comes to her son's dignity, Fang's mother will fight the other party as soon as she hears about it! And she has to beat the other party into submission!
"Mother, it's not too late now." Fang Leiluo said meaningfully. Hearing a noise outside the ward, he looked up expectantly, but instead of Lin Zhaoyue, he saw Yanzi.
There was nothing behind the swallow.
Fang Leiluo: "..."
"Where is she? Didn't I tell you to call her over right away!" Fang's mother spoke up for Fang Leiluo, scolding Yanzi and poking her forehead hard. "What can I say about you? You can't even do this simple thing. What's the use of raising you?"
"She wasn't in the outpatient clinic. A nurse said she wasn't feeling well and went home to rest early." Yanzi had very obvious red marks on her forehead, and tears were welling up in her eyes. Fang Leiluo felt no pity for her when he saw her like this; he was only annoyed.
"Why is she feeling unwell?"
Fang Leilu felt that Lin Zhaoyue was deliberately avoiding him.
"I don't know." Yanzi shook her head. She just relayed what she heard and didn't ask any other questions.
"I think you should just change your name to 'I Don't Know' instead." Fang's mother pushed her aside, telling her not to get in the way.
Swallow staggered slightly, and could only stand obediently to the side.
Fang Leiluo was injured in the line of duty, and all his medical expenses were covered by the military. After he recovered, he did not need to return to the north.
Fang's mother was the happiest. Her son should just settle down and give her a grandson in Beijing, instead of messing around.
Fang Leiluo still longed to see Lin Zhaoyue, but she always made excuses not to see him until he was discharged from the hospital.
Lin Zhaoyue thought he was quite persistent, but his persistence was a nuisance to others.
Every nurse in the hospital knows that Fang Leiluo asks Lin Zhaoyue at least several times a day, whether his eyes are open or closed.
There are even rumors circulating privately that Fang Leiluo and Lin Zhaoyue have some shady relationship.
Fang Leiluo will be discharged from the hospital after he recovers, so these gossips mean nothing to him, but Lin Zhaoyue still has to continue working here.
Before Fang Leiluo could speak, Lin Zhaoyue said directly, "The person who performed the surgery on you wasn't me, it was my teacher, Professor Liao. You should thank him. Why are you looking for me every few days? I don't think our relationship is that close yet."
“Zhaoyue, we almost got married back then. I think our relationship should be closer.”
Fang Leiluo looked at Lin Zhaoyue with deep affection in his eyes, "We haven't seen each other for so long, and you've been the only thing on my mind. I can only get through that place by missing you. I've found that I can't live without you anymore. I was wrong back then, and I apologize to you. I hope you can reconsider me."
"Pfft cough cough"
Professor Liao was speechless at Fang Leiluo's earth-shattering and absurd remarks.
As far as he knew, both of them were married.
Fang Leiluo's wife was waiting outside. He ran into the consultation room and started spouting nonsense, but his wife was quite tolerant.
