Chapter 576: He’s Basically the Boyfriend
Chapter 576: Chapter 576: He’s Basically the Boyfriend
The car left the restaurant, made a U-turn at the alleyway and then smoothly drove out onto the main road, with the little young master pouting and holding his breath for a while before he couldn’t hold back his inquiries toward Zhu Qianying.
"Mommy, are you lying to baby boy?"
Zhu Qianying pretended not to understand the little boy’s words, blinking her eyes and looking at the baby boy with an innocent face.
"Baby, what did mommy lie to you about?"
"Didn’t you say that granny and Grandpa Luo were just shooting an ad? Where is the ad? I think Grandpa Luo is basically granny’s boyfriend!"
Baby boy is huffily puffing out his cheeks, making his little face even rounder and fleshier.
Zhu Qianying was about to explain when Xiao Lizi tugged at the baby boy’s hand and asked.
"Why do you say that Grandpa Luo is grandmother’s boyfriend?"
So, the little young master turned to look at Xiao Lizi, saying.
"You see, Grandpa Luo was busy in the store, and even helped to collect money!"
It seems that in the eyes of the little young master, as long as one helped to collect money, they fell into the category of being part of the family.
Xiao Lizi chuckled, "My grandfather also accompanies granny to buy groceries every day, and they go together to play Tai Chi. He also helps collect money. Why don’t you say my grandfather is your grandma’s boyfriend?"
The Little Young Master was left speechless by Xiao Lizi’s words, while Zhu Qianying, on the other hand, was trying hard to hold back her laughter.
So it turns out Xiao Lizi had considered his mom as a mother-in-law?
It seems that at least one of these two little fellows’ wishes will fall short.
In the past, Zhu Qianying just felt that Bai Xiangdong was very good to her mom.
Now, she still feels the same.
But compared with Luo Yifan, the emotions between them became crystal clear and utterly different.
Especially the interactions between her mom and Bai Xiangdong that she saw at the hospital this morning. Indeed, they were intimate and close but more like siblings, not like when her mom was with Luo Yifan, where things always seemed a bit awkward.
That kind of awkwardness, perhaps, can be understood as shyness.
However, it’s up to the parties involved to decide on these matters. As Young Master Yan said, affairs of the heart are like shoe shopping: only the wearer knows which pair is most comfortable.
Zhu Qianying discovered that Xiao Lizi’s words were really effective. For several days after that, the baby boy didn’t bring up the matter of Luo Yifan being grandmother’s boyfriend again.
Bai Xiangdong had been in the hospital for a few days, and he seemed a bit better than before. He wasn’t sure if it was due to the effects of the medication he received in the hospital or if his illness just wasn’t serious, but he didn’t faint again during his few days there.
Therefore, he began to agitate for discharge, which Bai Shao naturally wouldn’t permit.
Because, after his examination results came out, Bai Shao had a detailed chat with the doctor. The doctor consistently recommended surgery as soon as possible, only, there was a delay in scheduling an appointment with a reputable specialist.
Young Master Yan received another call from Bai Shao on the fourth day after Bai Xiangdong’s admission to the hospital.
"Young Master Yan, could I have the contact information for Doctor Zhao? I want to try contacting him myself."
Young Master Yan understood Bai Shao’s anxiety, because the examination results from the hospital were not promising.
He had asked someone else to contact another authoritative specialist and just received a reply.
"Bai Shao, give up on Dr. Zhao. I’ve contacted another specialist, but he won’t have time to fly over to see Uncle Dong until next week. Is waiting okay for you?"
Naturally, Bai Shao’s answer was to wait.
Just a few minutes after Young Master Yan had hung up the phone, he received another call, this time from Bai Xiangdong.
"Uncle Dong, what is it?"
Young Master Yan thought that Bai Xiangdong was calling to tell him not to look for doctors as he didn’t want treatment, in a defeatist manner.
Unexpectedly, Bai Xiangdong on the other end said, "Young Master Yan, you know about the matter I discussed with Ying Zi a few days ago, right?"
After receiving confirmation, Bai Xiangdong continued, "I found the contact information for that old neighbour, jot it down. He’ll be waiting in front of my shop at nine o’clock tomorrow morning. You can ask him for more details when you meet him!"
After speaking, he didn’t mention his illness or treatment at all; he only updated regarding some basic background information about Chen Jing’s family. Young Master Yan directly recorded what Bai Xiangdong stated, hung up the phone, and immediately sent the recorded contents to Ke Kai’s mailbox.
When he got home that night, Young Master Yan couldn’t discuss this matter in front of his family and Chen Jing.
It wasn’t until the two of them returned to their bedroom that Young Master Yan roughly retold what Bai Xiangdong had said.
After Zhu Qianying listened, she immediately said, "Then I’ll go with you guys tomorrow, okay?"
Young Master Yan felt a slight headache. Honestly, he wasn’t eager to involve Zhu Qianying in matters related to Tong Village that he was handling.
But these matters involved her and her mom, and expecting her not to intervene seemed rather unlikely.
"Ying’er, those things, it’s enough for Kai Zi to handle. You don’t know the person, so even if you meet them, it won’t be helpful."
Young Master Yan regretted telling Zhu Qian Ying about this matter. But he had no choice. Bai Xiangdong’s heart was with Zhu Qian Ying, and he couldn’t keep her in the dark about this.
However, even though Young Master Yan had said this, Zhu Qianying still insisted.
"I know I can’t help much, but I have some things to ask the old neighbor."
There were some things Zhu Qianying had always been curious about but couldn’t get answers from her mother, so she wanted to verify them with the old neighbor.
After thinking about it, Young Master Yan came up with a solution that would both ensure her safety and allow her to verify things.
"How about this, tomorrow you’re coming with me to Tong Village, and I will let Kai Zi bring the old neighbor to Tong Village."
And with that, the matter was settled.
Early the next morning, Zhu Qianying got up unusually early, sitting down at the breakfast table with Bai Shao, her daughter, and the baby boy.
After everyone exchanged greetings, Bai Shao was somewhat surprised, "Why are you getting up so early today? Are you going back to work at the jewelry store?"
Zhu Qianying shook her head, "No, the jewelry store is still closed for renovation. I am currently unemployed and very bored at home. I decided to be a good wife today and accompany him to the company."
In a sense, Tong Village could also be considered as Young Master Yan’s business, so Zhu Qianying’s statement was not wrong.
Bai Shao expressed understanding and wanted to say something more, but fearing her gossip, Zhu Qianying reminded her it was almost time, and Bai Shao quickly lowered her head to drink porridge.
Speaking of which, Bai Shao and her daughter had been living in the Yan Family’s house for several days, and both Bai Shao and Xiao Lizi were quite happy.
For one, the Yan family and they were already very familiar with each other, often eating together at the restaurant in the past. While they weren’t as intimate as family, the relationship was still excellent.
In addition, the Yan family was vast, but their population was small. Even with the additional baby boy, it wasn’t very lively.
But now that Xiao Lizi was here, the addition of another child made the house feel bustling with the sound of the two children’s arguing and playing.
