Chapter 645: Chapter 647: In Order to Adopt An Aunt Lan, Have One and Adopt One
In the First Traditional Chinese Hospital of Zhonghai, Aunt Lan was in a high-end convalescent ward.
The doctor summoned by CEO Mu Shanshan of the Mu Group was conducting a recovery checkup for Aunt Lan.
anwhile, Lin Fei found himself in what seed to be a heated argunt with the frosty Mu Shanshan, whose stunning beauty was tinged with a blush, but was in fact a one-sided reprimand.
“Mu Shanshan, it was you who interrupted before to say that henceforth, I’ll be in charge of all household matters and you’d fully cooperate. That’s what you said, isn’t that right?!”
“I did say that, but—”
“But what! Words once spoken are like water poured out. I can’t believe that you, the esteed CEO of the Mu Group, would be so capricious. Mu Shanshan, you’ve disappointed
trendously!”
“I—”
“What about you! Are you saying that planning for a child doesn’t count as a household matter?! Or was what you said about leaving household decisions to
and doing your best to cooperate just a ga to you?!”
“I was serious! If I said I’d let you decide on household matters and I’d do my best to cooperate, then I will, I’ll definitely try my best to accommodate you. It’s just, it just doesn’t include, doesn’t include having children.”
By the end of her statent, the voice of CEO Mu Shanshan was barely audible.
Had Lin Fei not had exceptional hearing, he couldn’t have possibly heard her clearly.
“It doesn’t include having children? You need to explain to , other than the trivialities of life, what else is there for a couple besides having and raising children?!”
“There’s also, also—work-related matters.”
“Am I talking to you about work right now?! Family is family, and work is work! The biggest problem with you is that you always mix up family and work issues! At the company, I am your subordinate, indeed, but don’t forget that while I’m your subordinate, I’m also your husband! The father of your future children, understand?!”
Just as Lin Fei finally seized the opportunity to thoroughly break down Mu Shanshan’s defensive barriers step by step through his reprimand,
In the high-end convalescent ward, the doctor and nurse who had completed the recovery checkup for Aunt Lan approached Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan. “Both of you, after considering the patient’s health condition, we think the patient can now be discharged. However, given the patient’s advanced age, please rember not to let her engage in any long-term, strenuous arm activity after discharge. Also, I need to confirm with you both—are you the patient’s relatives?”
While confirming with the frosty CEO Mu Shanshan and Lin Fei that Aunt Lan could be discharged, the doctor who had perford her recovery check glanced back at Aunt Lan as she dressed, then asked Lin Fei and CEO Mu Shanshan in a quiet voice.
“We are the patient’s family, Doctor. You may speak freely.”
Originally restrained by the stern scolding of her nominal husband, Lin Fei, and bowing her head like a chastised child, Mu Shanshan, the ice queen CEO, perked up upon hearing the doctor’s implications while discussing Aunt Lan’s recovery examination. The typically unemotional eyes of Mu Shanshan now betrayed a hint of worry.
“It’s not a serious illness; no need to be anxious.” Seeming to have noticed the concern in the ice queen CEO’s eyes, the doctor who had conducted Aunt Lan’s recovery examination gestured to both Mu Shanshan and Lin Fei, saying, “According to our hospital’s observations over the past few days, the patient appears to be suffering from mild depression. If possible, I advise both of you to spend more ti with her, take her out for walks, have conversations with her. Elderly people should not engage in heavy labor, but they shouldn’t be idle either. When people idle, they tend to overthink, and that can lead to depression.”
After the doctor finished speaking, the worry in Mu Shanshan’s eyes softened sowhat. anwhile, Lin Fei, who had spent many years on rcenary battlefields and witnessed so rcenaries develop ntal issues and even suicidal tendencies due to depression, furrowed his brow slightly.
“If it’s depression, shouldn’t we consider seeking help from a psychologist for guidance?”
“Given the patient’s current ntal state, we do not recomnd taking her to see a specialized psychologist. Right now, the patient is only mildly depressed. If you were to take her to a psychologist, I’m concerned that it might have the adverse effect of increasing her psychological burden.”
“Isn’t there so effective way to alleviate the patient’s depression to the greatest extent?”
“For elderly patients, the most effective way to reduce their depression is actually through children.”
“Children?”
“Yes, children. There are few elderly people who don’t like children, especially their own. Generally speaking, if elderly people have children who accompany them often, they are unlikely to fall into depression. In fact, many seniors’ depressive issues stem from not having children around. I don’t know if you two have children, but if you do, having them spend ti with the patient could effectively relieve her depressive state.”
As the doctor finished speaking, Lin Feihu glanced at Mu Shanshan, then responded to the doctor, “We are actually planning to have a child. Now, since you say a child can effectively alleviate the patient’s depression, we wouldn’t mind speeding up the process. If that doesn’t work, we could consider adopting one first.”
While talking about adopting a child, Lin Feihu observed his CEO wife’s reaction closely. Seeing that she only slightly raised her eyebrows with no apparent sign of displeasure or reluctance, Lin Fei, concerned about his little tiger daughter, unconsciously let out a sigh of relief.
“Whether to have or adopt a child, to the elderly, children are like their joy. Having children will undoubtedly significantly relieve the patient’s depression.”
After reiterating his advice to Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan, the ice queen CEO, the doctor who had perford Aunt Lan’s recovery examination left the advanced recuperation ward with the accompanying nurse.
“Wife, you heard what the doctor said. Even if it’s just for Aunt Lan, we need to hurry with having a child. I’ve decided, after taking Aunt Lan ho later, let’s go out and book a room. We won’t check out until you’re pregnant. And about adopting a child, we need to prepare for that as soon as possible. After all, even if you get pregnant tonight, it will still be ten months before the child arrives. For Aunt Lan’s health, we must pursue both giving birth and adopting concurrently!”
Listening to Lin Fei’s resolute words, Mu Shanshan, the ice queen CEO, felt a surge of complex and indescribable emotions, along with a sense of overwhelming pressure.
Whether to adopt or to give birth wasn’t the issue. The crucial problem was, Mu Shanshan, the ice queen CEO, was not at all prepared to upgrade to motherhood…
