Chapter 85: My daughter has grown up and her elbows have turned outward
Looking at that string of "hehe", without making a video call, Lin Han could imagine how happily Chen Xingzhou on the other side of the screen was laughing, so he unconsciously curled up the corners of his lips.

"What did you see? You are laughing so happily."

Jiang Mengyan asked curiously.

"It's a star ship."

Lin Han smiled and said:

"He asked me to thank you, saying that the bouquet you helped him put together was a great help.

The girl he is pursuing now, Lulu, is very fond of her. She praised him several times today and just promised him that they can go out together to stroll around the neighborhood tomorrow."

"puff."

Jiang Mengyan couldn't hold back and laughed out loud as well.

Good job Lulu, she just swore to her that we were not at the stage of dating yet, but now she agreed to go out with her.

But it's pretty good.

"Then why didn't you ask your friend to ask if the girl could go out? Isn't she also staying in the hospital? She must not be in good health."

Jiang Mengyan hinted indirectly.

"Yeah, that makes sense. Let me ask."

After the message was sent, Chen Xingzhou slapped his thigh after reading it.

Oh no, how could I forget about this.

Lulu said she has a bad heart. I was so happy today that I was busy making an appointment with her that I forgot to ask her if she could go out.

It’s over, it’s over, his perfect and careful personality is about to collapse!
He quickly sent a message to Jiang Bailu.

[Lulu, regarding tomorrow's appointment, does your physical condition allow you to go out of the hospital for a walk? If not, cancel it. We can just walk around the hospital.]

However, after sending the message for a long time, there was no reply.

You know, she used to reply to my messages within seconds.

I hope nothing happens to Lulu?
Without caring about anything else, Chen Xingzhou quickly put on his shoes and ran out like crazy.

The psychiatric ward and the cardiology ward are not in the same building.

Chen Xingzhou knew Jiang Bailu's ward number, but out of courtesy, he did not go up to her directly, but always made an appointment to meet in the small garden of the inpatient department.

Chen Xingzhou hurriedly went up to the floor where her ward was and searched room by room.

1609 should be here.

Chen Xingzhou stopped and looked inside through the glass on the ward door, trying to find any trace of Jiang Bailu, but it was pitch black inside and he couldn't see clearly.

How about knocking on the door?
He mustered up the courage to reach out his hand, and just as he was about to knock, a surprised cry came from the side:

"Xingzhou? Why are you here?"

Chen Xingzhou turned his head and saw Jiang Bailu with wet hair and a bath towel draped over her shoulders.

And the middle-aged woman next to her who looked a little haggard.

".This is my mother."

Seeing Chen Xingzhou's eyes looking over there, Jiang Bailu's pretty face blushed slightly and she said a little embarrassedly.

Chen Xingzhou looked down and saw the hospital gown and slippers on which he was wearing which were printed with "Department of Psychiatry, First Affiliated Hospital of Qinghai University". His scalp suddenly exploded.

He never thought that the first time he met his future mother-in-law would be under such circumstances.

Chen Xingzhou wanted to explain that he was not a playboy. He came to see Jiang Bailu late at night because he saw that Jiang Bailu did not reply to his messages and he was worried that she might have an accident.

But there are so many words in my mind that I don’t know where to start.

I opened my mouth awkwardly, and what came out in the end was:

"Auntie, please listen to my explanation. I am really not mentally ill."

what?
Mother Jiang never expected that Chen Xingzhou would say this as the first sentence. She didn't react for a moment and just stood there.

After a while, he couldn't help laughing. Jiang Bailu's face turned even redder:

"Xingzhou, my mother knows you. I told her that you just have depression, not mental illness. Don't be nervous."

"I'm sorry, I lost my temper."

Chen Xingzhou then realized how outrageous what he had just said was. He couldn't help but blush and said awkwardly:
"I suddenly thought of asking you out tomorrow, but I'm not sure if you're physically able to do it. Have you asked your attending physician for advice?

I sent you a message, but you didn’t reply. I thought, I thought.”

"Think I'm in for a surprise?"

Jiang Bailu chuckled and took over the conversation.

Chen Xingzhou nodded somewhat embarrassedly.

"I just went to take a shower with my mom. I didn't bring my phone with me, so of course I can't reply to your message."

Jiang Bailu smiled:

"As for accepting your invitation, of course I have already obtained the consent of the attending physician, otherwise I would not dare to agree."

"That's good, that's good"

Chen Xingzhou put his heart back into his stomach and nodded quickly:
"Well, in that case, I won't stay any longer. We can talk tomorrow when we meet.

Goodbye, Auntie. Goodbye, Lulu."

After saying that, he left quickly in a somewhat embarrassed manner.

Looking at Chen Xingzhou's back, Mother Jiang couldn't help but laugh out loud:
"This boy is quite innocent. Look at his reaction when he saw me."

"Mom, don't laugh at him. He was so nervous because he didn't expect to see you."

Jiang Bailu scolded in a low voice.

"Your elbow is turning outward so soon?"

Mother Jiang smiled and glanced at her daughter:
"But he's quite handsome, seems to be a decent person, and is also very considerate. He even thought of asking your attending physician for his opinion. Not many men are so considerate.

Let’s talk about it first, Mom doesn’t object.”

"Mom! Why are you like my sister, thinking that I'm in love just because of someone else's comments?"

Jiang Bailu stamped her feet in embarrassment and said, "We are just friends."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're friends. When you're dating someone, you start by being friends.

Okay, okay, go back quickly, don’t catch a cold from the cold wind.”

Mother Jiang knew how to see her daughter's innocent girlish behavior, so she smiled and gently pushed her.

For Mother Jiang, she had already experienced a failed arranged marriage, and she certainly didn't want her two daughters to repeat her mistake.

When she first learned that Jiang Mengyan was pregnant with twins, she almost fainted. She thought that her eldest daughter, whom she was most proud of, would follow her old path.

So her request was almost coercive, and Jiang Mengyan had to find a reliable father for the two children no matter what method she used.

Fortunately, fate was so coincidental that Jiang Mengyan met Lin Han again on her first blind date.

Now Jiang Mengyan would report her daily life every now and then.

Looking at the meals made by Lin Han herself and the precious gold hairpin given to her by Grandma Lin, Mother Jiang finally felt relieved that her daughter was truly well protected and loved.

As for Jiang Bailu.

Because she has been influenced by her father since she was a child, her daughter has always been very withdrawn and unwilling to interact with the opposite sex. Mother Jiang has always been worried about what to do with her daughter's future life.

Now she actually took the initiative to mention that she knew Chen Xingzhou. Although they didn't know each other well enough, it was still a good step forward.

Naturally, Mother Jiang would not stop her.

For her, the end of her life is in sight, and the future happiness of her two daughters is the top priority.
