664: Chapter 663: It’s Good to Have a Sense of Proportion 664: Chapter 663: It’s Good to Have a Sense of Proportion Lu Zheng and Lin Xia didn’t want to disregard Shao Chengzhi’s kindness, so they obediently left the hospital room.
In the corridor, Lu Zheng was walking briskly while holding Lin Xia’s hand, both of their moods sowhat heavy.
Even though Shao Chengzhi seed fine, at his age, life and death could be a matter of opening and closing one’s eyes.
Lin Xia knew that Lu Zheng was very close to his grandfather, and on the way back, she had offered many words of comfort.
At this mont, she actually didn’t know what would be appropriate to say, “Xiaozheng!
You shouldn’t worry too much!
I think your grandpa’s health doesn’t seem to be a serious issue!”
Lu Zheng didn’t want Lin Xia to worry about him.
He forced a smile, “Wife!
I know!
Grandpa will be fine!”
From childhood, the person who loved him the most wasn’t his father, but his grandfather.
Whatever he wanted to do, his grandfather always supported him fully!
When he truly realized that such a dearly beloved elder might one day leave him, his heart wasn’t as calm as it appeared on the surface.
Lin Xia could feel the intense turmoil inside him.
She stopped talking and gave Lu Zheng so space.
The two of them quickly grabbed sothing to eat outside, then hurried back to the hospital room.
Before they reached the room, they could hear that it seed very lively inside.
Lin Xia listened closely and recognized Fang Youlan’s voice.
When the two of them reached the doorway, indeed Fang Youlan was there, along with Lu Shuhui and Lu Qing’s mother, Song Wanjun.
When these people saw Lu Zheng and Lin Xia enter the room, their facial expressions varied.
Fang Youlan maintained a polite smile and glanced at Lin Xia subtly, particularly pausing for two seconds on her stomach.
Lu Shuhui’s smile faded, but Song Wanjun’s expression didn’t change much.
Fang Youlan looked healthy, having undergone ticulous treatnt and rehabilitation.
She recovered quickly, but still had so sequelae, evident from the cane beside her as she sat in the chair.
Lin Xia and Lu Zheng greeted them.
Everyone chatted politely for a few sentences.
Fang Youlan then proposed leaving, “Dear!
Take care of yourself!
I will co to see you another day!”
“Okay!
Take care, dear in-law!” Shao Chengzhi instructed irou, “irou!
Go help see off your mother-in-law and her company!”
Lu Zheng also wanted to go along but was stopped by Fang Youlan, “Xiaozheng ah!
You’re seldom ho, so spend more ti talking with your grandpa.
Your mother and Lin Xia can see us out!”
“You stay with your grandpa!
I’ll go with Lin Xia to see them out!” irou understood her mother-in-law must have sothing to say, which was why she excluded Lu Zheng.
Lin Xia also guessed Fang Youlan’s intention.
She gave Lu Zheng a reassuring look, and Lu Zheng reluctantly stayed behind as told.
Once outside the hospital room, Lin Xia and irou walked with Fang Youlan and the others for a while.
Fang Youlan then seemingly kindly began, “Lin Xia ah!
Is it tough living at Xiaozheng’s place?
Are you getting used to it?”
“It’s not tough!
I think I’m pretty used to it!” Lin Xia replied confidently.
She knew the conflicts that had occurred between her and Fang Youlan would not easily dissipate with ti.
But what she could do was to maintain as decent a relationship as possible, to prevent putting Lu Zheng in a difficult position.
Fang Youlan nodded lightly, her eyebrows arching slightly, “That’s good!
I was just telling your mother-in-law the other day, you’ve been married almost a year now, how co there’s still no news?”
Lin Xia was speechless inside.
She had guessed that Fang Youlan would bring up the topic of children.
But having been married for so long with infrequent etings, she hadn’t gotten pregnant.
What could she do?
“We…”
As soon as Lin Xia ntioned “we,” Shao irou caught her wrist and signaled her to keep quiet.
She knew how much her in-laws disapproved of Lin Xia.
Without any reason, Lin Xia’s careless words could easily give others a reason to make a fuss.
“Mom!
It hasn’t been long since Lin Xia just ca over!
Please don’t put too much pressure on the children!”
She knew her mother-in-law was eager for grandchildren, and wasn’t she also anxious?
If her father had passed away during this hospital stay without ever seeing his great-grandson, what a regret that would have been!
But such things, hurrying was useless!
Putting too much pressure on the two children would only make it harder for them to conceive.
Lin Xia felt ward inside; she hadn’t expected her mother-in-law to speak up for her like this.
“irou!
I didn’t intend to put pressure on them!
But it’s not like they just got together right after getting married…”
Fang Youlan noticed Shao irou protecting Lin Xia and found the scene particularly ironic.
Back then, Shao irou had strongly opposed their relationship and had even encouraged her to go to Lin Xia’s hotown to break them up.
If it weren’t for Shao irou’s instigation back then, Fang Youlan wouldn’t have gone through what she did afterward.
Shao irou noticed the change in her mother-in-law’s gaze and felt a mix of emotions.
However, so much ti had passed, and she only hoped now that the two children could be happy and not cause any more disturbances.
Lu Shuhui couldn’t stand it anymore and interjected, “Sister-in-law!
Mom is only saying this because she cares about them.
Actually, uncle is still lying in the hospital.
As a younger relative, it’s not my place to say this, but the urgent task now is to quickly…”
Fang Youlan knew it was more appropriate for her to speak these words than her daughter.
Interrupting Lu Shuhui, she continued, “Yes, irou, you see Xiaozheng’s grandfather and both your dad and I are people who are halfway into our graves.
We never know which day might be…
Therefore, they must hurry up with having a child and can’t delay any longer!”
Shao irou spoke in a negotiating tone, “Mom!
Xiaozheng and she are sensible about this matter, let’s not rush them!”
Fang Youlan felt annoyed.
If it weren’t for Lin Xia’s belly showing no signs, why would she rush?
But in the hospital, in the presence of so many people, she could hardly say anything too harsh.
“Good!
If they are sensible, that’s good!”
Besides, she was planning to change her strategy and get back at Lin Xia properly later.
If they broke off relations now, how could she play out the bigger drama later?
The news of Shao Chengzhi’s hospitalization spread quickly.
Aside from Fang Youlan and other relatives coming to visit, so old friends and subordinates also ca one after another.
Among the visitors was ng Xiangzi’s uncle, Hua Yongbing.
When ng Xiangzi heard that Lu Zheng and Lin Xia were staying by Shao Chengzhi’s hospital bedside, she was extrely indignant and felt very unpleasant.
She couldn’t help but sigh; how much better it would have been if she could have been reborn a few years earlier.
In that case, what would there be for Lin Xia to do?
However, she clearly rembered that in her previous life, Shao Chengzhi did not die at this ti—it was at least two years later than now.
So his illness and hospitalization this ti must definitely be a false alarm, nothing serious.
If Shao Chengzhi’s health improved, Lu Zheng definitely could not stay here indefinitely.
Then, she could also start to carry out her plan.
ng Xiangzi decisively went to find her uncle…
