After Fan's father was sent to the operating room, the Fan family's mother and daughter finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fan's father's surgery also went very smoothly. Although nothing could move except for the movement of his eyeballs, and he had to rely on others to take care of him for food, drink and toilette, at least his life was saved and the expected surgical effect was achieved.
As for Fan Shengmei's brother's house, Singularity and Fan Shengmei entrusted it to Wang Baichuan in his hometown to handle it.
At this point, this matter is temporarily declared to have come to an end.
After solving Fan Shengmei's matter, the entire 22nd floor returned to its previous calm.
Then on Thursday night, when Guan Ju'er and Lin Li had dinner together, they learned that both of them were free on the weekend, so they simply made an appointment to go on a self-driving trip this weekend and set off directly after get off work tomorrow.
They discussed the travel destination with great interest and made some simple plans. After dinner, they went to the hospital to visit Fan Shengmei's father, and then Lin left the car to take Guan Ju'er back to Ode to Joy.
After arriving at the destination, Lin Li leaned over and kissed Guan Juer gently as usual.
With their current relationship, this kind of kissing goodbye has naturally become a normal thing, but the two of them did not notice that not far away from their car, Qu Xiaoxiao stared motionlessly at the two kissing in the car, with no trace of emotion on his face.
No expression.
"Go back and get some rest early. When I get off work tomorrow, I will go directly to your company to pick you up!"
After kissing and touching for about two minutes, Guan Ju'er reluctantly got out of the car and waved goodbye to Lin Li.
After Lin Li's car disappeared into the underground garage of Ode to Joy, Qu Xiaoxiao stepped forward and pretended to meet by chance and said to Guan Ju'er who was about to go upstairs: "Hey, Xiaoguan, what a coincidence?"
"Well, Xiaoqu, you just came back." Guan Ju'er nodded at her.
Seeing the sweet look on her face, Qu Xiaoxiao bit her lip: "It was Dr. Zhao who sent you back, I think I saw his car just now."
"Well, he just left." Guan Ju'er glanced at Qu Xiaoxiao and said nothing more.
Ever since she came back from the villa, she had become somewhat wary of Qu Xiaoxiao and was unwilling to mention her boyfriend in front of him.
Seeing that Guan Ju'er was a bit indifferent to her, Qu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but twitched her face a few times.
If it were another woman, I am afraid Qu Xiaoxiao would have been tempted to fall out with her and use all means to steal her boyfriend.
However, given that Lin Li is currently adopting a completely repulsive attitude toward her, and that no one on the 22nd floor, including Andy, will support her behavior, no matter how unbalanced Qu Xiaoxiao's psychology is, Guan
Ju'er didn't like her, and he didn't dare to quarrel with her at this juncture.
So Qu Xiaoxiao had to change the subject and asked about Fan Shengmei.
She only found out after the fact that Fan's parents came to Shanghai and that Fan's father had a stroke and was hospitalized.
But after learning that Fan's father was admitted to the hospital where Lin Li worked, Qu Xiaoxiao cried out that it was a pity. If she had known about this earlier, she would never have minded lending a helping hand to Fan Shengmei. What a good person she is in Lin Li.
What a chance to make your presence known!
After learning from Guan Ju'er that Fan's father had just completed the operation and was not yet discharged from the hospital, she quickly made the decision that she must pay more attention to Fan Shengmei, and even mentioned it to Guan Ju'er on the spot, saying that she wanted to
Go to the hospital with her tomorrow to see Fan Shengmei's father.
However, Guan Ju'er told her that he and Lin Li had made an appointment to go on a self-driving trip over the weekend and would set off directly after get off work tomorrow.
In response to this, Qu Xiaoxiao felt so sad that she immediately secretly made up her mind to try to stop the two of them from traveling this time.
But before she could come up with a solution, Guan Juer suddenly received a call from her mother.
"What? Mom, you and dad are coming to Shanghai on Saturday? Do you still want to meet Brother Qiping?"
But what Guan Juer's mother said on the phone shocked her!
Hearing this, Qu Xiaoxiao's expression immediately changed. But she quickly secretly shouted, "God help me, too." As a result, Dr. Zhao and Guan Ju'er were unable to go out for a weekend trip.
After a while, Guan Ju'er said a little helplessly: "Okay, I understand, I will tell Brother Qiping."
Then, after parting ways with Qu Xiaoxiao and returning to 2202, Guan Ju'er called Lin Li, who had just parted recently.
"Brother Qiping, I'm afraid our trip this weekend will be ruined. My parents said they were coming to Shanghai this weekend, and they also said they wanted to meet you.
When telling him the news, Guan Ju'er was still a little nervous because the incident was so sudden. Not to mention Lin Li, even she was very uneasy.
After all, it was the first time for Guan Ju'er to meet her parents in her life of more than 20 years, so she naturally couldn't help but feel nervous.
What if they are really dissatisfied with Lin Li?
However, considering that her boyfriend is impeccable in all aspects, including family conditions, education, career, and appearance and character, Guan Ju'er feels relieved. She believes that her parents will be satisfied with him.
"Oh, it doesn't matter. Since it's my uncle and aunt who want to see me, let's meet them." Lin Li didn't care at all and chuckled: "We agreed last time that we would visit your home.
As a result, they were not able to make the trip because they were about to go on a business trip. We just happened to meet each other this time. But it’s really embarrassing to say that, in fact, we should have gone to Liangxi to meet them together, but now they have to come to the Magic City."
Hearing her boyfriend's words, Guan Ju felt as if she had eaten honey, and her whole heart was so sweet.
His ability to say this not only reflects his respect for his parents, but also proves that he values himself. This makes Guan Ju'er unhappy!
Lin Li didn't feel any resistance at all about meeting Guan Ju'er's parents.
In addition to his own conditions, which are enough to deal with most picky parents, it is also because Lin Li's soul and experience will not make him afraid of meeting his mother-in-law and father-in-law like an ordinary man.
And according to his understanding of the plot, Lin Li also knew that Guan Ju'er's parents were normal people with knowledge of books and etiquette, and were not a weird family like Su Mingyu or Fan Shengmei. As long as he could prove to them that he had that ability, he could make their
If their precious daughter can live a comfortable life, they will naturally not object.
What's more, if it weren't for such parents, they wouldn't be able to cultivate a good, well-behaved and motivated girl like Guan Ju'er.
Think about the background of the five girls in Ode to Joy. Andy was adopted from an orphanage when she was a child, not to mention Fan Shengmei, and Qu Xiaoxiao’s parents are always at odds with each other, and in the future they will even fight for the family property. It can be seen that both parties have
Not a good thing.
As for Qiu Yingying, although her family is complete and her parents love her very much, her cultural level is not high and her material conditions are not favorable. In comparison, only Guan Juer's growth environment is the healthiest.
…
The next day, Friday, just as Lin Li and Guan Ju'er were preparing to meet their parents over the weekend, Wang Baichuan took advantage of the opportunity to return to Shanghai to run business and came to the hospital where Fan's father was staying.
Of course, before visiting Fan's father, he immediately found Lin Li, expressed his gratitude to him, and even brought him a lot of specialties from his hometown.
Then, with a lot of anxiety, he came to Father Fan's ward.
But when he saw Fan Shengmei, Wang Baichuan was shocked. He saw that Fan Shengmei, who had always paid most attention to descriptions and was always dressed very delicately, was now without makeup and looked extremely haggard. This was shocking
It is very different from the description of the school beauty that Wang Baichuan has been thinking about for more than ten years.
Fan Shengmei greeted her calmly and generously: "Wang Baichuan, I can finally thank you in person. Thank you for your help during this time."
"Xiao Mei, there is no need to be so polite between you and me." Wang Baichuan tried his best to keep his tone calm so as not to irritate Fan Shengmei, who was at a low point in her life.
Looking at the other party's haggard face, he then glanced at his watch and couldn't help but said: "Why don't you go home and take a nap? I'll watch for you tonight. You can explain to me what to do here."
That’s fine.”
Hearing Wang Baichuan's concerned words, Fan Shengmei's eyes heated up, but she was unwilling to show her vulnerable side in front of him, so she quickly lowered her eyes and said: "You are tired too, you just drove a long distance car for so long. And even if I go back, I will
There is no place to sleep, there is only one bed in the dormitory, and my mother also needs to rest, she is also very tired these days."
Since all the details were exposed, Fan Shengmei spoke more naturally in front of Wang Baichuan, and she didn't mind letting him know her true situation.
Wang Baichuan directly took out a key and handed it to Fan Shengmei: "You know the address of the house I rent, but I haven't lived there for a while and the sanitary conditions are not ideal."
Fan Shengmei couldn't hold back her tears anymore, so she had to turn around and wipe her tears with Wang Baichuan behind her back.
After all, she still didn't want to cry in front of Wang Baichuan. After a while, she turned around and said, "Can you please do me one more favor? My dad will be discharged from the hospital in two days. I plan to send him back to his hometown for a better life."
Recuperate, I would like to ask you to drive our family back. Dr. Zhao and Mr. Wei have helped me so much this time, I am really embarrassed to trouble them again."
"Of course, just tell me before your dad is discharged from the hospital." Wang Baichuan agreed decisively.
Shortly after Wang Baichuan left, Andy and Qidian, Guan Juer and Qiu Yingying, and Qu Xiaoxiao also came, and the entire 22nd floor was able to gather in front of Fan's father's bed again.
During this period, Lin Li also came over, but saw that Qu Xiaoxiao was also present. He didn't stay long before leaving.
After everyone left the hospital and returned to Ode to Joy, Andy and Qingdian from 2201 chatted about Lin Li and Qu Xiaoxiao again.
"Andy, did you notice Xiaoqu's expression in the ward just now? I think she still hasn't given up on Dr. Zhao." Qingdian asked.
"You are right, I have also noticed that Xiaoqu has not given up, but the relationship between Dr. Zhao and Xiaoguan has been stable now, and it is said that Xiaoguan's parents will come back to Shanghai to meet Dr. Zhao tomorrow. She has absolutely no intention of taking advantage of him.
And enter the space." Andy also nodded.
"Oh, is this happening? Did Xiaoguan tell you?" Qi Dian was a little surprised.
Andy hummed: "Yes, Xiaoguan told me this morning when he was riding in my car."
"Then I hope Xiaoqu can give up on his own initiative." Qingdian said thoughtfully. Although from his subjective point of view, he actually always felt that Lin Li and Qu Xiaoxiao were more compatible, but emotional matters were too complicated, and he was a
As an outsider, naturally it’s hard to say much.
Andy also said: "Maybe I have to find another time to talk to Xiaoqu. I don't want her to affect the relationship between Dr. Zhao and Xiaoguan."
Qingdian smiled noncommittally and changed the topic: "You see, Xiaoguan and Dr. Zhao are going to meet their parents. When do you think we can take that step?"
"Why are you suddenly involved in this? Do you also want to take me to see your parents?"
Andy's eyes widened and he said: "I've been very busy with work recently and need to use my time effectively. I'm afraid I won't be able to see them for a while. You also know that after I return to China, I need to strengthen my study of language, literature, current affairs and law, so as not to analyze problems.
The time was unrealistic. If I hadn’t solved it by reading one or two books a day, how could I have integrated into the national conditions so quickly.”
Qingdian patted the back of her hand gently and said: "Of course I don't mean that. I just hope that you can slow down appropriately at work and invest more time and energy in life, not just cooking, but cultivating
Interesting life."
"I'm willing to listen to you, but you have to give me some books on how to cultivate a taste for life." Andy spread his hands.
Singularity is a little helpless. If it comes to cultivating a male friend's interest in life, he can give it a try, but when it comes to cultivating Andy's interest in life, he feels a headache just thinking about it.
He sat in the middle of the living room and looked around the entire living room of Andy's house, speechless for a long time.
This living room, which is simple and practical and lacks unnecessary things, is even tougher than the style of his home. Andy has no interest in life at all.
In the end, his eyes painfully fell on Andy's face. This unadorned face was consistent with the style of the living room, and he could only nod helplessly: "Okay, I will find a way to transform you."
"But the premise is that it cannot affect my work." Andy emphasized.
"I know you won't starve to death even if you don't work for ten years, rich woman! I refuse this request. God, what a sacrifice I have to make, I need sweetness."
"Do you have a book? Isn't it more straightforward to have a book? You don't need to sacrifice."
"They are all books and newspapers that you define as a waste of time, boring, pretense of nonsense, lack of logic, whimsical and pathological heresy! I need sweetness, don't avoid my question."
Andy immediately jumped behind the table and sneered with his hands behind his back. Every day at this time, Singularity would use various reasons to ask for sweetness, and this sweetness was to stay overnight.
This time, Qi Dian took out a bag of information and said, "All my information is here for the marriage procedures. Mine has been completed, what about yours? You promised me."
