Rebirth: I Became Mr.President's Beloved-Chapter 940

They say he came to visit the sick, but not a single word of consolation was offered.

Even if Lai Wenyan tried hard to suppress his emotions, some of it still showed on his face.

On the sofa, Song Baiyan had already stood up, his voice as low and steady as ever: "The abdominal injury is neither too serious nor too minor; the councilman should take care."

...That was the conclusion of the conversation.

Lai Wenyan’s face darkened.

They went around in circles, but in the end, gained nothing!

After all, they are all people of stature, and can’t directly beg for a Senate seat.

But seeing Song Baiyan’s attitude, it was evident that, unless brought up, he had no interest in Senate matters.

At the end of the day, it was because he was merely Tang Li’s "Uncle."

If his father-daughter relationship with Tang Li was publicly known, without his prompting, Song Baiyan would probably have helped him as a father-in-law to negotiate a bit.

However, now he was just an outsider!

Song Baiyan walked to the entrance and seemed to remember something, then looked back at Lai Wenyan on the sickbed: "The Wong Family is far away in Shangbu, and in the future Ah Li will still need to marry from the Lai Family; if Old Madam Lai disagrees, there could be other arrangements."

Song Baiyan’s grand wedding would be within the next two years.

By that time, it would likely be a century wedding.

Not only entertainment gossip columns but also political news would hit the headlines.

Though Tang Li and Lai Yuaner had previously made waves on social media, Tang Li marrying from the Lai Family, during Song Baiyan’s term, would be a great honor for the Lai Family.

By then, who would remember those conflicts, but only know the Lai Family once took care of the First Lady.

It would naturally also benefit his future political career.

As soon as Song Baiyan left, Old Madam Lai came to the ward.

The old woman had rested for an afternoon, already feeling better, and being assisted by Jiang Yuan, she found only her son in the room and asked, "Wasn’t the gentleman here? Where is he?"

Upon learning Song Baiyan had just left, Old Madam Lai, leaning on her cane, sat on the sofa.

"If Song Baiyan knew he was dealing with such a troublemaker, this marriage is unlikely to happen!"

Lai Wenyan listened to his mother’s negativity and recalled Song Baiyan’s words.

Song Baiyan was clearly displeased with his mother.

Considering Old Madam Lai’s temperament, if she knew the gentleman found her sharp-tongued, she may even curse Song Baiyan too.

"Driving her elder sister crazy, causing her stepmother to miscarry, such a vicious nature, once married over, who knows how many Song Family people she will harm!" Old Madam Lai continued to murmur: "I have finally seen it; she is one who does not remember kindness! No matter how well she marries, she won’t consider our Lai Family!"

"Enough!" Lai Wenyan stopped his mother.

Old Madam Lai was taken aback, not expecting her son to tell her to hush.

In the past, whenever she cursed that troublemaker, her son would only respond after she finished.

But now, she detected impatience in her son’s words.

Just as Old Madam Lai was about to speak again, her son spoke first: "You have cholecystitis now; it’s time to start taking care of yourself."

After pondering for a moment, Lai Wenyan continued: "It’s nearing winter; I’ll have Jiang Yuan arrange for you to stay at a wellness center in Sea City. The weather there is like spring all year round. You can go and stay for a while. If you like it there, I’ll have Jiang Yuan extend your stay for a few years."

For a long time, Old Madam Lai was left in a daze. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Out of the blue, he suddenly mentioned sending her south for the winter.

And saying it’s nearing winter, yet it’s just August.

Furthermore, she wasn’t a lonely old woman, why would she be sent to a wellness center!

"You book two tickets," Lai Wenyan already instructed Jiang Yuan: "You’ll personally escort the old lady to Sea City."
