Chapter 158 Going to the Lin Family to Visit Mrs. Lin
Although Mrs. Lin accidentally slipped and broke her leg, Lin Xuan's pursuit of his ex-daughter-in-law was like a ray of warm sunshine, instantly dispelling the haze in her heart.
The hospital's regulations are as strict as ever, and the lights-out policy at 10 p.m. makes the night seem especially peaceful.
After Lin Xuan and Lin Shuhuai stayed with Mrs. Lin in the ward for a while, they prepared to leave at her urging. Seeing this, the housekeeper also persuaded her to rest, allowing Mrs. Lin to rest assured.
"Okay, housekeeper, thank you for your concern." Lin Shuhuai picked up his handbag and stood up gracefully, while glancing at Lin Xuan gently, "Let's go."
Lin Xuan nodded gently, cast a loving farewell glance at Mrs. Lin, then turned to the housekeeper and said, "Housekeeper, if there is any new situation, please inform me in time."
The butler smiled and nodded in agreement: "Master, don't worry."
Mrs. Lin, however, was slightly annoyed by Lin Xuan's careful instructions: "I'm only staying for a few days, you don't have to worry so much. It's your lifelong event that worries me more. Whether I can see you get married and have children in my lifetime is still unknown."
"Then I'll leave first. You should have a good rest." After Lin Xuan reminded him again, he turned around resolutely and walked out of the ward.
Lin Shuhuai asked Mrs. Lin about her condition in detail at the nurse's station.
When Lin Xuan came over, she had just finished asking questions and looked at him softly: "The old lady is lucky. She only injured her leg. The rest of her body is fine."
Lin Xuan nodded slightly upon hearing this, and the two of them walked side by side towards the elevator. He pressed the elevator button gracefully, his eyes as calm as water as he waited.
The elevator slowly rose, and Lin Shuhuai turned his head to look at Lin Xuan: "Have you really decided to pursue Ye Wanqing again?"
The elevator door opened, and Lin Xuan politely put his hand in front of the door, waiting for Lin Shuhuai to enter before following him in.
The space inside the elevator was small, and the two stood side by side. After the elevator door closed, Lin Xuan responded softly, "Yeah."
A gentle smile appeared on Lin Shuhuai's face: "You and your grandfather are really alike."
Both of them had an indomitable and tenacious character. Lin Xuan pursed his lips lightly and remained silent. He had never thought that he would fall so deeply in love with Ye Wanqing.
As Lin Xuan's aunt, Lin Shuhuai has always been very concerned about his love life.
Although she said it in a teasing tone, her words revealed her deep love for Lin Xuan. She was worried that Lin Xuan's overly direct approach would backfire.
"Do you know how to pursue girls?" The elevator door opened again, and Lin Shuhuai asked as he walked out of the elevator.
This question made Lin Xuan frown slightly. He had indeed never actively pursued a girl. Lin Shuhuai took one look at him and understood everything:
"You have no experience, and neither do I. But as a woman, I naturally understand some of women's minds."
Seeing that Lin Xuan was listening attentively, Lin Shuhuai continued, "Ye Wanqing is not an ordinary girl. She is smart, independent, and has her own principles and pride.
As for you, you have lived under the halo since childhood and have a strong sense of self-esteem. Once you encounter setbacks, you may feel that the other party is ungrateful. "
Lin Xuan recalled his impulsive behavior years ago, and a trace of regret flashed in his eyes.
"Your strengths are obvious, and Ye Wanqing can see them too. But when it comes to pursuing love, your strengths are not everything.
Love is sometimes so wonderful. She may fall in love with you because of your smile or your action.
Your background and talent are your plus points. But if she has no feelings for you, these plus points will lose their meaning. "
"Women are emotional creatures. As long as you are willing to treat her with patience, equality, and respect, she will see your good side. Don't try to conquer her with your business tactics. Otherwise, even if you succeed in bringing her back to the Lin family, you may not win her heart."
Lin Shuhuai's words were full of wisdom, and she wondered how much Lin Xuan could comprehend. As an elder, she could only say so much.
"I understand." Lin Xuan said in a deep voice.
The two arrived at the parking lot, and Lin Shuhuai looked up at Lin Xuan: "I hope you really understand."
Lin Xuan is proud and persistent, while Ye Wanqing appears gentle but is also tough inside. If the two cannot properly handle their relationship, they may both suffer. As Lin Xuan's aunt, she does not want to see such an outcome.
"It's getting late, go back and get some rest early." Lin Shuhuai gently advised.
"Yeah." Lin Xuan nodded slightly.
The night breeze was slightly chilly. Lin Xuan watched Lin Shuhuai's car leave the parking lot before slowly starting his own car. A cool breeze blew in through the half-open car window, and Lin Shuhuai's words kept echoing in his mind.
Ye Wanqing learned about Mrs. Lin's fall in the afternoon of the next day. The news was passed to her by Qin Zhuyu.
Remembering that when she broke her leg years ago, Mrs. Lin specially recommended a doctor to her, Ye Wanqing decided to visit the Lin family.
The weather had been fine these past few days, and her mood had been relatively stable. After lunch, Ye Wanqing brought the red date cakes and glutinous rice cakes she had made herself to the Lin family.
When she arrived, Mrs. Lin was taking a nap, and it was the housekeeper who received her. Lin Yanrong happened to be home for a visit, and when she saw Ye Wanqing, her face changed slightly, but remembering the lesson from the previous year, she still greeted her politely: "Miss Ye."
After saying hello, she walked towards the stairs, suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at Ye Wanqing who was sitting on the sofa, her eyes flashing with complex emotions.
The housekeeper keenly noticed the subtle changes in Lin Yanrong's eyes, fearing that she would repeat the same mistake and bring unnecessary embarrassment to Ye Wanqing, so he quickly spoke and cleverly changed the subject:
"Miss Yanrong, the kitchen has just cooked a sweet soup with rock sugar and snow pears. It's so fragrant. Would you like to try some to moisten your throat?"
Hearing this, Lin Yanrong turned her gaze away from Ye Wanqing and responded indifferently: "Thank you, but I don't want to drink yet."
After saying this, she lifted her skirt slightly and hurried up the stairs, as if she was running away from something.
Although Mrs. Lin was not seriously injured after the accidental fall, she looked a little tired and her nap time was much longer than usual.
Ye Wanqing sat quietly on the sofa in the living room for nearly half an hour before she heard a slight sound coming from the room and realized that Mrs. Lin had woken up.
"Miss Ye, the old lady has woken up. You can go see her." The housekeeper reminded softly.
Hearing this, Ye Wanqing stood up gracefully from the sofa with a gentle smile on her lips: "Okay, I'll go right away."
Led by the housekeeper, Ye Wanqing walked into Mrs. Lin's room.
Mrs. Lin had just opened her eyes, and her vision was still a little blurry. Seeing Ye Wanqing standing in front of her, she couldn't help but feel a little surprised:
"Wanqing, why are you here?"
She tried to move her body and wanted to sit in the wheelchair. Seeing this, Ye Wanqing quickly stepped forward, stretched out her slender hand, gently supported her shoulders, and smiled softly:
"I heard you were injured, so I came to see you. I hope you recover soon."
"It's really hard for you to make such a special trip." Mrs. Lin sat in the wheelchair, her eyes moving across Ye Wanqing's gentle face, her heart filled with indescribable joy.
Thinking of Lin Xuan’s firm attitude a few days ago, she was even more looking forward to the future.
In Mrs. Lin's opinion, Ye Wanqing not only has outstanding appearance, but also has a gentle and virtuous temperament, making her the best candidate for her grandson's wife.
Although Ye Wanqing didn't know what Mrs. Lin was thinking, she could feel the old lady's love for her, and her warm gaze made her feel very cordial.
Mrs. Lin maneuvered the wheelchair herself and slowly came to the living room.
Ye Wanqing sat beside him, and the two of them started playing Go. The black and white pieces on the board intertwined, just like the emotions in their hearts, complex and subtle.
It was not until the sun set and the clock quietly pointed to five o'clock in the afternoon that Ye Wanqing reluctantly said goodbye to Mrs. Lin and left the Lin residence.
Her figure gradually faded away in the afterglow of the setting sun, leaving behind endless warmth and expectation.
