Huo Jinning lay on the bed holding her phone, hesitating whether to ask Fu Qinian for his finger size.
Suddenly I remembered someone who might have a solution.
The bystander asked, "Xiao Ran, what are you doing?"
With a smile, she said, "Sister-in-law, I'm fine, I'm lying down. What's wrong?" (Yiran Yixiao is Xu Xiaoran's WeChat name.)
The bystander said, "I just wanted to ask if you know the size of Fu Qinian's thumb. I want to make him a thumb ring."
Yi Ran smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, are you going to give Brother Nian a surprise? Hehe, how romantic!"
Xu Xiaoran, who was lying in bed, sat up abruptly upon seeing the news and started gossiping.
The bystander, a melon-eating scoundrel, said, "Hmm, you know what?"
Huo Jinning hesitated for a long time before replying, as if saying "surprised" wouldn't be wrong.
He smiled and said, "How could I possibly know?"
The bystander, a melon-eating scoundrel, said, "Never mind if I don't know."
He smiled and said, "But I can get it from my older brother."
The bystander, a shrew, asked, "Really?"
With a smile, he said, "Of course, I wouldn't lie to you."
The bystander said, "Thank you, Xiao Ran. I'll treat you to dinner next time."
With a smile, she said, "Sister-in-law, you're too kind. You even stayed with me yesterday when I was sick."
The bystander said, "You don't need to call me sister-in-law. Fu Qinian and I are not in a romantic relationship."
With a smile, she said, "Sister-in-law, you're just shy."
With a smile, she said, "Being young means you're easily embarrassed."
The bystander, a "melon-eating rascal," said, "It's not that I'm shy, it's that I'm genuinely not."
With a smile, Yi Ran said, "Sister-in-law, I wouldn't dare. Otherwise, if Brother Nian found out, he would kill me."
The bystander asked, "How are you? Are you feeling better?"
Helpless, Huo Jinning could only change the subject, telling him to call her whatever he wanted, since no one else would know anyway.
With a smile, she said, "It's okay, it's just that she won't let me eat anything." (A crying face emoji)
The bystander was "too pitiful".
...
The two chatted until they became sleepy and had to put down their phones before finally stopping.
Only then did Huo Jinning notice the name Xu Xiaoran, thinking to himself, "Yi Xiao, Yi Ran, isn't that a combination of their names?"
It seems that Xiao Ran really likes Zhou Haoran, which makes her think of something – she must bring them together!
It would be such a pity to miss out like this.
Moreover, he couldn't bear to let Xiao Ran leave the capital. If he did, wouldn't he lose his reason to go to her house for a free meal?
Even if it's just so I can continue to enjoy Grandpa Xu's cooking, I have to work hard to make this marriage happen.
......
"Ningning, Haoran said he has some time this morning, so we can get to know each other."
"Big brother, really? That's great! Shall we go now?" Huo Jinning asked impatiently.
"Yes, he's already sent me the address. We can just go there later."
"Okay, sure!" Huo Jinning nodded excitedly.
At this moment, Huo Jinxin, who was standing nearby, heard the commotion and curiously came over to ask, "Big brother, little sister, where are you going?"
"Oh, we're going to find Haoran, which will be a good opportunity to meet Ningning," Huo Nanchu explained softly.
"Why did you suddenly decide to see Brother Haoran?" Huo Jinxin asked, blinking her curious eyes.
"Uh... there's really no particular reason. We just happened to be talking about him, and I thought it would be good to take this opportunity to get to know each other." Huo Nanchu tried hard to organize her thoughts and find a good excuse.
The real reason cannot be revealed.
[Phew~ Thank goodness my older brother came to my rescue, otherwise I wouldn't know how to explain myself!]
Huo Jinning secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, none of this escaped Huo Jinxin's discerning eye. She immediately noticed something amiss: "Then I'll go too. Won't that be inconvenient?"
Huo Jinxin's face practically screamed "gossip."
"Of course it's convenient, it's not like I'm meeting any outsiders." Huo Nanchu nodded in agreement.
"Haha, that's great! Wait a moment, I'll go upstairs to change my clothes." Before she finished speaking, Huo Jinxin turned around and ran upstairs impatiently.
The three siblings went directly to the address Zhou Haoran had sent them; it was a private restaurant that was basically not open to the public.
So when they arrived, only Zhou Haoran was there.
After exchanging pleasantries, the group sat down.
[This is Zhou Haoran. It seems Xiao Ran has good taste.]
Who are Huo Jinxin and Xiao Ran? What have I missed?
[Her facial features are relatively small, with a lot of blank space on her face. She has thick eyebrows, large eyes, and faint under-eye bags. Her eyes are clear, and she appears innocent when she smiles.]
[Also, he looks amazing in wire-rimmed glasses.]
[His dark circles are quite pronounced, and he looks tired. It seems being a doctor is a tough job.]
If Zhou Haoran knew, he would definitely say, "You've misunderstood. I'm about to lose my child! How could I possibly get a good rest? I barely slept a wink all night and I'm exhausted, both physically and mentally."
"Ningning, nice to meet you. Here's a gift for you. Do you like it? If not, I'll buy you something else next time."
As Zhou Haoran spoke, he handed the exquisite box in his hand to Huo Jinning.
"Thank you, Brother Haoran."
"Open it and take a look."
"Wow, this is so beautiful and gorgeous!" Huo Jinning exclaimed in amazement after opening the box.
Inside the box was an icy jadeite bangle, its color slightly pinkish, practically designed for young girls.
"I really like it, thank you, Brother Haoran," Huo Jinning said happily.
