A few hours later, Yu Mobai returned to the small county town.
Without even thinking of going home for a drink of water, he knocked on Dong Muhong's door, panting heavily.
Since the start of the school term, Dong Muhong and Ji Zhigang have been living together again.
So Yu Jinsheng and I still live in the same building, one upstairs and one downstairs.
Yu Mobai could be considered to have passed by his home without entering. He deliberately didn't drink any water the whole way, and his lips were even a little dry and chapped.
This way, when others see him, it will better show that he is "extremely anxious".
"Yu Mobai?"
Ji Zhigang was taken aback when he saw Yu Mobai standing outside the door. "Why are you here? Aren't you at school?"
“Oh, I heard from Dong Yike that Aunt Dong has heart problems.”
Yu Mobai deliberately grinned, and this grin caused his lips to split open, from which drops of blood began to trickle.
He wiped his lips with the back of his hand, leaving a bloodstain. "So I came straight here to take Aunt Dong to Shengjing for a visit."
"Come in first."
Ji Zhigang glanced at it and called out to the kitchen, "Mu Hong, pour me a glass of water."
Who's here?
Dong Muhong came out carrying a cup of hot water and was also stunned when she saw that it was Yu Mobai.
"Yu Mobai will take you to a hospital in Shengjing when he comes back."
Ji Zhigang sighed and handed over the water glass. "This illness isn't serious. Why did you run so fast? You should drink more water."
"I was in such a hurry that I didn't even have time to drink water."
Yu Mobai sat down with a smile.
Dong Muhong, having overheard their conversation, realized what was going on. She poured a glass of water from the kitchen and placed it in front of Yu Mobai. "The weather is quite dry during this spring and winter exchange season, so you should drink more water."

"Thank you, Aunt Dong."
Yu Mobai nodded with a grin. He had come back with a purpose this time, and sure enough, the old couple were much more relaxed about it.
At least he's in his room now, sitting there happily drinking hot water, which is a huge improvement compared to the time around Chinese New Year.
"Aunt Dong, it's not late yet, why don't we set off now?"
Yu Mobai said with a smile, "I can take you and Uncle Ji for a walk tonight, and we'll get the test results tomorrow."
"It gets dark early now, so it's not safe to drive at night."
Ji Zhigang shook his head. "You should stay one night and we'll talk about it tomorrow."
Dong Muhong nodded in agreement.
Seeing that both of them shared the same idea, Yu Mobai stopped making excuses.
He knew it was a bit late, but his decision to come back today was a matter of attitude.
Firstly, it was for Dong Yike to see. The fact that she rushed back to the small county town in such a hurry meant that I treat your mother like my own mother, so you don't have to worry about this issue in the future.
Secondly, it was intended for Dong Muhong and Ji Zhigang to see.
Although he's a bit of a scumbag, he's good not only to your daughter but also to you. My own parents are right downstairs, but I didn't even go back for a drink of water. I got out of the car and came straight here without saying a word. That should show my sincerity, right?
"Okay, I'll go home now."
Yu Mobai nodded, "I'll come again tomorrow morning."
"Don't go back."
Ji Zhigang waved his hand to stop him, "Let's eat here tonight, and invite your parents too."
Yu Mobai glanced at Dong Muhong, who also advised, "Yes, let's eat at home. We have all kinds of food at home."
"Okay then, I'll go home and call them."
After Yu Mobai left, the elderly couple looked worriedly towards the doorway.
Ji Zhigang also sighed heavily, "I'll cook today's meal. Don't move. You really need to go to a big hospital in Shengjing to get your illness checked out. It hurts if you move around for a while. You should go before the Spring Festival."
"I never expected it to hurt for so long."
Dong Muhong sat on the sofa, rubbing her chest. "I only mentioned this to Xiao Ke at noon today, and the kid came running back this afternoon."
"You won't soften your heart so easily, will you?"
Ji Zhigang snorted and said, "That little rascal is sensible, but he absolutely cannot ruin our two girls."
Dong Muhong didn't speak. She got up and went back to her room to rest. When she was almost at the door, she said, "What's the use of saying all this? Don't you even ask what the two girls are thinking? They're all grown up now, can they still listen to us?"
"If you don't obey, you won't get your dowry!"
Ji Zhigang said something harsh.
Dong Muhong glanced at him and replied casually, "Do you think it makes any difference for Yu Mobai whether he has a dowry or not?"
Ji Zhigang was stunned for a moment, then turned around and thought about it and realized it was true. Yu Mobai was not short of money, and might even give more in betrothal gifts. Whether he had his dowry or not was actually not important.
But he stubbornly insisted, "Anyway, nothing I say will work!"
Dong Muhong went back to her room to rest without saying anything. Ji Zhigang sighed again. Since this incident, all he could do was sigh.
He got up to cook when his phone suddenly rang. It was Ji Mushu calling. Facing his daughter, he quickly put on a smiling face, "Mushu, what's up?"
"Dad, we couldn't buy any more today."
Ji Mushu said with some annoyance, "I came at noon, but there are so many people buying nutritional supplements here, I can't get any at all, and there are no other stores to buy from."
"It's okay, Dad doesn't absolutely need to eat this."
Ji Zhigang comforted him, "Don't buy it for me, I can buy some other things to eat myself."
