"Father, mother, sister, why are you so early?" Lin Ning knew that Zhou Qing had invited Ruan Bai over. Although she was unhappy, she did not show it. Today she was more generous than before.
He Boying also greeted, "Uncle and aunt, good afternoon."
Lin Wenzheng watched the two people walk in, but saw no other members of the He family. He put away his smile, put on a serious face, turned off the screen of his phone, and handed it to Ruan Bai.
"Okay." Zhou Qing glanced at Lin Wenzheng, stood up, held Lin Ning's hand, and asked, "How are the results of the prenatal checkup?"
Lin Ning's smile paused, and her face quickly turned pale.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing asked with concern: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the inspection?"
Lin Ning shook his head, returned to normal, and said with a smile: "Mom, I was teasing you just now. My examination was very good, there is no problem."
"You are a child who is about to become a mother and you are still so naughty. Sit down quickly." Zhou Qing nodded her forehead and pulled out the chair for her to sit down.
Lin Ning smiled, feeling inexplicably weak.
She just went to the hospital for a Down syndrome screening and color ultrasound, but the results were not very good, and the child was likely to have malformations.
When getting the examination report, He Boying happened to go to buy water for her, so she didn't know about it. The doctor also said that it was most likely caused by her indiscriminate consumption of ineffective abortion drugs in the early stage.
The doctor gave her advice and told her to do further examinations. If there was really something wrong with the baby, she should induce labor immediately to avoid giving birth to a baby with problems.
Lin Ning asked the doctor to keep it confidential. Due to the medical agreement, the doctor agreed, but repeatedly warned him.
He Boying carefully helped her sit on the chair and said proudly: "The doctor said that this child is very healthy. In a few months, I will have a son as good as me!"
Lin Ning smiled and touched her belly. Seeing He Boying's appearance, she made up her mind to give birth to this child no matter what!
Most of the reasons why the He family agreed to eat this meal were for the sake of their belly. If the child was gone, her dream would be shattered. What would she have to compare with Ruan Bai then?
Lin Ning knew the importance of this child and naturally would not give up.
Zhou Qing sat down and was in a good mood when she learned that Lin Ning's fetus was healthy. Lin Ning would move in with He Boying in two days. Today, she met with the He family to discuss the wedding.
Because of the child, He Boying took very warm care of Lin Ning. He served her with tea and water, and took care of her feelings with the menu.
Zhou Qing looked very happy. Although He Boying's attitude towards the two elders was very average, he was really good to Lin Ning, and that was enough.
After a while, Liang Ying took He Zhanchao's hand and walked into the box.
He Boying saw her parents walking in but did not see her grandma, so she asked: "Mom, where is grandma?"
As originally agreed, they would pick up and drop off the old lady.
"Your grandma was not feeling well, so she didn't come." Liang Ying explained with a lukewarm expression. Because Mrs. He did not agree with the marriage, she deliberately lost her temper and did not attend the dinner.
"Have you called a doctor?" He Boying was very concerned about the old lady's health.
"Please." Liang Ying casually dealt with her son, her eyes slid past Lin Ning, and then fell on the Lin couple. She showed a faint smile and greeted her husband together: "Mr. Lin, Mrs. Lin, hello."
They were very polite, just like meeting ordinary friends, not quite like in-laws.
Lin Wenzheng and Zhou Qing also exchanged a faint greeting. Their long-term political work has made them ignorant of having a hot face against a cold butt.
Liang Ying and He Zhanchao sat down, looked at Ruan Bai, and asked curiously: "Who is this?"
"This is my eldest daughter, Ruan Bai." Zhou Qing introduced.
Liang Ying's eyes suddenly lit up and she looked at Ruan Bai with admiration. She had done some research before and found out that she knew about the eldest daughter of the Lin family. She was already a strong woman. After learning about Ruan Bai's past experience, she was very appreciative and even sighed repeatedly.
, how great would it be if the person He Boying fell in love with was the eldest daughter of the Lin family? She is also the daughter of the Lin family, how come there is such a big difference between the one she raised by her side and the one she has been separated for many years?
It's a pity that Ruan Bai married into the Mu family a long time ago, so the He family is not lucky.
Lin Ning noticed that Liang Ying looked at Ruan Bai with admiration, and felt angry. Ruan Bai was so good, why did everyone look like this.
Jealousy was burning, Lin Ning stood up and said, "Sorry, excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom."
He Boying also stood up: "I'll go with you."
"No need, I'll just go by myself." Lin Ning smiled softly to hide her jealousy, and walked out of the box while holding on to her waist.
Liang Ying ignored Lin Ning's departure. If it weren't for the sake of her children, she would never have agreed to the marriage.
Taking the menu, she handed it over. Although the He family's business was abroad, it would be great to have an official as an in-law in China. Liang Ying said politely: "Mr. Lin, Mrs. Lin, come here.
You order."
Lin Wenzheng pushed the menu back and said, "You just order. We, the couple, are very casual."
"Then..." Liang Ying's eyes fell on Ruan Bai, "Mrs. Mu, would you like some?"
Ruan Bai smiled softly, naturally she would not do anything like this, "Mrs. He, just come."
"Then let me order." Seeing that they all refused to order, Liang Ying opened the menu and ordered many signature dishes to the waiter.
He Zhanchao stood up.
Liang Ying asked: "Where are you going?"
"Let's have a smoke, Mr. Lin, do you want to join us?" He Zhanchao took out the cigarette in his pocket and invited.
Lin Wenzheng quit smoking, shook his head and said: "No need, I have quit smoking."
"It's good to quit smoking and keep in good health. I'll come back as soon as I go." He Zhanchao smiled and walked outside.
Ruan Bai watched him leave. From the moment the couple entered the box, Liang Ying had been arranging the arrangements. He basically didn't speak, making the whole He family feel like a woman was in charge.
But her intuition told her that this silent man was not as silent and simple as he seemed.
He Zhanchao walked out with a cigarette and looked back. No one followed him, so he turned and walked to the bathroom.
Lin Ning took a deep breath in the women's bathroom to adjust her emotions.
Every time she meets someone who treats Ruan Bai well, she can't help but get angry. She must adjust herself well before she can appear normal.
Turning on the faucet, she washed her hands, looked down at her protruding belly, and murmured in a low voice: "Baby, you must live up to your expectations."
After drying her hands, Lin Ning walked out. On the way back to the box, she was pulled into the mother and baby room nearby.
She exclaimed in surprise and took a closer look. It turned out to be He Zhanchao.
"I'm scared to death, uncle, why are you here?" Lin Ning patted his chest and leaned against the wall, smiling happily.
He Zhanchao squinted his eyes and looked at her belly, "How long do you want me to wait."
