"Ah?"
"This..."
Li Manni was stunned for a good while before she finally spoke, "Mom, what's gotten into you?"
"Didn't you just say yesterday that our age difference is too great, and that rumors will drown us with a relationship like ours?"
"Why have you changed your mind today??"
Kang Huizhi shook her head, murmuring softly, "Things change over ti."
"My thinking yesterday was to continue to see how things go, given that you're still young."
"But the situation now is that there are too many young and beautiful girls around your brother-in-law, with Mrs. Jiang at ho, and now here cos Doctor Guan, and her qualifications are not bad compared to yours."
"So, if you don't get a move on, my excellent son-in-law will really be gone!"
Actually, Kang Huizhi had more thoughts she hadn't spoken aloud; naly, that her son-in-law's wealth far exceeded her expectations. She had assud that being well-off would just be a slight improvent from before.
But now it seed not even on the sa level. Although Kang Huizhi wasn't obsessed with money, who wouldn't want their daughter to find a man with good conditions!
Moreover, in the current societal environnt, money can indeed solve 99% of one's problems.
If her daughter married a wealthy husband, her future life would naturally be much more comfortable, and she, as the mother-in-law, would also benefit!
Although Yang Hao still called her "Mom," it was based on the previous relationship with Li Manshu.
However, that relationship was actually no longer there.
For now, the ti had been short, and Yang Hao was still sentintal about the past, but as ti went on and he ford a new family, that relationship would ultimately disappear.
"Manni, I share the sa view as your mom."
Li Baojun also chid in.
"Dad, that's not what you said yesterday."
"You said after all, my sister and I are blood-related, and we can't just never see each other again!"
Li Manni looked at her father sowhat speechlessly.
"Your sister's work, your mom and I can take care of it."
"Besides, from the current situation, it's impossible for her to want to remarry!"
"And this is sothing she brought upon herself. If she hadn't insisted on getting a divorce, none of this would have happened."
Li Baojun frowned and grumbled. Naturally, he didn't approve of his older daughter's actions either.
"I'll think about it more..."
Li Manni replied noncommittally, while she inwardly criticized: It's actually too late!
Xixi would never tell a lie.
At this mont, Yang Hao ca out of the consulting room. Seeing Li Manni returning, he imdiately asked, "Did you get the number?"
"Doctor Guan said her teacher's appointnt needs to be booked half a month in advance online."
"Yeah, it's done, just need to queue up," replied Li Manni with a nod.
So, the group of four went to queue outside Professor Xu Yuanhou's consulting room.
"Hao, do you know that Doctor Guan well?"
While waiting in the waiting area, Kang Guizhi asked curiously.
"It's alright, she's a friend's sister," he said.
Thinking about how he t Guan ngng brought up mories of Liu Zifeng and Feng Lina for Yang Hao.
He had received a ssage from Liu Zifeng the previous night, saying he had reconciled with Feng Lina and reminding him not to ntion their visit to the foot massage place the next ti they had dinner.
Breaking up and getting back together just like that was sothing to be speechless about.
However, such situations were rare with Liu Zifeng, so one could only think "Rogue Liu" might truly want to settle down.
Hearing Yang Hao say that the person was a friend's sister, Kang Huizhi didn't ask any further, mainly because her current status wasn't suitable for digging too deep.
After a while, it was Kang Huizhi's turn to be seen by the doctor.
Xu Yuanhou was a white-bearded old man who looked past the age of retirent, the type of expert re-employed by the hospital. Just from his appearance, he carried the air of a master.
After reviewing the scans Kang Huizhi brought and asking about her condition, he ca to the sa conclusion as Guan ngng.
"For this type of illness, actually, the best dicine is to maintain a good mood; also, appropriate exercise is very important."
"Do you swim?" Xu Yuanhou asked.
"No," replied Kang Huizhi, shaking her head.
"Try swimming. Given the state of your body, running and similar exercises aren't suitable, but swimming is more fitting."
"I've encountered patients with the sa condition as yours before. She persisted with swimming for a year and basically recovered. However, it still varies from person to person."
"Today, I'll prescribe so dication for adjunctive therapy, but the drugs will only help alleviate pain when you feel it; the main thing is still up to you to adjust your mood and physical state..."
Professor Xu Yuanhou, this elderly professor, still was very experienced and detailed out the subsequent treatnt plan.
After they left his consulting room, Kang Huizhi's whole state improved a lot; she had been worrying if she had contracted so terminal illness.
But now, Professor Xu had given a clear diagnosis.
Although "fibromyalgia" is hard to cure, at least the disease is not fatal, and there was a treatnt plan, so the anxiety that she'd been carrying lifted.
Ding!
Triggered a ti-limited mission: [The Tycoon's Filial Piety]
Benevolence begins with filial piety, honoring the elders is a traditional virtue of the Huaxia nation.
As a tycoon, filial piety should co first.
Mission content: Show respect to your father-in-law and mother-in-law, especially by ensuring your mother-in-law maintains a cheerful mood.
Mission reward: Double cashback on filial expenditures!
(Note 1: Mission duration 48 hours)
(Note 2: There's a certain chance for a cashback multiplier crit, up to ten tis.)
While the four of them went to the pharmacy to pick up the dicine, the System's voice once again rang in Yang Hao's mind.
Another opportunity to make money, eh!
Actually, Yang Hao had intended to treat his in-laws to a spending spree anyway, considering he and Li Manni's matter still required their approval.
Besides, the matter was a bit embarrassing to broach.
So his original plan was to first bombard them with sugar-coated bombs.
He never imagined not only would he not have to pay out of his own pocket, but he could also make a good profit from it.
Nice!
The System is reliable!
Yang Hao silently appreciated this in his mind, and then said to Kang Huizhi, "Mom, the doctor also said that you should mainly maintain a good mood."
"So, whatever happens, you must stay calm, and don't worry about Manshu and ."
"I'll say it again, even though Manshu and I divorced, I'll always be your son-in-law!"
"Besides, Xixi is still here! Our relationship won't change, and if it does, it'll only get better!"
Yang Hao took the opportunity to express his stance.
What he didn't know was that his in-laws were already considering giving their younger daughter to him.
Both sides had already resonated with the idea.
Now, all that was lacking was a leap in the relationship between him and his sister-in-law!
"Hao, what you said is exactly what I was thinking," replied Kang Huizhi with a smiling face and glanced at her younger daughter Li Manni with the corner of her eye.
After getting the dicine, the four of them left the hospital.
"Brother-in-law, I should go back to my unit," Li Manni said. "They're short on staff at the Self-dia Operations Center."
Seeing that her mother was fine, Li Manni's mind returned to work; she was quite eager to prove herself at work and provide so support to her brother-in-law.
"It's okay, I, as the president, grant you a day off. Wenqian can handle things there, and if it's really necessary, just let her work so extra hours!" Yang Hao said with a shrug and a smile.
However, if Xu Wenqian heard this, she would definitely curse this unscrupulous president in her heart.
And probably post sothing like "Jiangcheng Newspaper Group President Yang Hao runs off with his sister-in-law" online as a complaint.
You take your sister-in-law off to enjoy yourselves while I have to work overti, huh??
Hmph!
Let's see how I sar your na!
"Manni, stop thinking about work for now," Kang Huizhi said. "Such a big corporation won't miss one person, plus Hao has already spoken!" She wanted her younger daughter to spend more ti with her son-in-law, naturally not willing to let her go.
"Let's go have a al first," Kang Huizhi suggested.
"After eating, I'm going to browse around Henglong..."
Yang Hao smiled and waved his hand; he still had so spending to do, and naturally, the sister-in-law had to be taken along.
Otherwise, when he showed off his financial ability, wouldn't he be short of an audience?
And moreover, a very important audience at that!
