Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife-Chapter 1197: Lingxin and Mingli (8)

"Then it depends on whether you can resist his temptation."

This overly forward mother made even the very clever Lingxin feel like he was on the verge of pulling his hair out.

Little Mingli sat in front of his brother’s bed, holding his own little chin with both hands. His small eyes gleamed with a smile, and his little eyebrows were arched, as if he found his brother’s current tangled expression particularly amusing.

Lingxin pushed away his brother’s gloating little face and said to the mother on the other end: "I understand, I’ll make a good decision." After hanging up the phone, he turned to Tang Sili: "I’m going to the hospital."

Tang Sili nodded: "Alright, I’ll have someone prepare a room, and in a bit, I’ll take a car to accompany you over."

"I want to go too!" Mingli raised his little hand high.

Gu’s Mom rushed in: "What are you going for? Your brother is going to the hospital to get treatment and rest; you stay home. Grandpa will stay with you. There are many germs in the hospital; you can’t follow along. What if you get sick too?"

Mingli’s cheeks puffed up immediately in disagreement: "No, no, I want to go to the hospital. It’s so boring without brother at home."

"Grandpa will turn on the finance channel for you, don’t you like watching Rogers?"

"Rogers isn’t as fun as my brother."

Lingxin couldn’t stand it anymore, got up, and reached out his little hand to grab his brother’s hair.

Gu’s Dad and Gu’s Mom exclaimed in shock and quickly separated the two children, shouting to Tang Sili: "You take the patient to the hospital first."

On the other side, after Gu Nuan had given instructions to people at the company, she immediately had Tang Shaohong drive her to the hospital to see her son.

Lingxin was admitted to a high-class single-patient room.

Mingli insisted on coming along and played with Lego in the room next to his brother’s ward. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Tang Sili took X-rays of the boss’s son. After confirming it was pneumonia, he started administering medication and intravenous fluids.

Gu Nuan’s car arrived. She was the first to get out of the car alone and walked to the entrance, where she saw a familiar figure standing at the service desk in the hospital lobby.

It had been three years since they last met. Gu Nuan momentarily wondered if she was seeing things. When she thought back to what her eldest son mentioned on the phone about Tang Sili using something to tempt him to stay in the hospital, it all made sense.

He had returned home.

Gu Nuan didn’t walk over, as there was another familiar face sitting in the lobby.

It was Ou Chunhua. Three years had passed; after being diagnosed with cancer, Ou Chunhua had undergone surgery for a gastric tumor and experienced chemotherapy and advanced treatments from the United States that temporarily saved her life. Now, in her recovery phase, she accompanied her son back to their homeland right after he completed his studies.

Wearing a hat to cover her hairless head due to treatment, her clothes no longer flashy and luxurious, she dressed in plain, ordinary attire like any commoner. From Gu Nuan’s perspective, the woman’s appearance had become almost like that of her own mother.

As if noticing the gaze directed at her, Ou Chunhua slowly lifted her eyes and saw Gu Nuan not far away. A trace of panic seemed to flash in her eyes, like a startled deer ready to flee.

"Yanan, Yanan—" she called out twice.

Ou Yanan had just finished helping her with the special outpatient procedures when he heard her calling and turned back. With one glance, he too saw Gu Nuan.

Ou Chunhua stood up, walked to his side, and tightly held his hand.

This caused Ou Yanan to refocus his gaze, gripping her hand: "It’s alright, Mom, let’s go. Let’s see the doctor first. My mentor will be responsible for your follow-up treatment."
