Xia Sanghuan lowered her head and raised her eyebrows at him.
"You doubt me?"
Looking at her bright smile, Leng Chuanjin was momentarily dazed.
The girl nimbly flipped off the stool and almost jumped into his arms.
The man closed his arms and easily picked up the girl.
He turned around and put her on the ground.
"Come with me to see Mother."
He looked at her seriously.
His reminder made the girl remember that they had only informed the Fu family about their relationship, while Mother Leng and Jing Zhan still knew nothing.
Even her father and sister, who always doted on her, had such a strong reaction after learning about this. What would Auntie's reaction be after she found out?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling a bit nervous.
Sensing her emotional fluctuations, the man held her slightly cold fingertips, which still carried the faint fragrance of herbs.
"Then, have you told Auntie?"
She asked cautiously.
"Not yet."
He naturally knew what she was referring to.
"Let it be a surprise for her."
As the man said this, he was about to pull her out.
"But..."
The girl stopped in her tracks.
"Look, Auntie has always only regarded me as Jing Zhan's doctor and the child of her friend. If she knows that we are in a relationship..."
Looking at her flustered expression, Leng Chuanjin couldn't help smiling.
"Don't you know how much Mother likes you?"
"She wishes she could raise you as her own daughter."
Moreover, she had already regarded you as her daughter - in - law before. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so angry because of my engagement.
Considering that she might be too shy to go and see Mother, he didn't say these two sentences.
After Xia Sanghuan had mentally prepared herself, Leng Chuanjin finally managed to take her away.
On the way to Jing Zhan's ward, the girl recalled the last time she saw him.
Come to think of it, she hadn't visited Jing Zhan for a long time.
After all, she had been extremely busy.
During this period, she would just take the inspection reports and leave every time, so she hadn't seen Mother Leng many times.
Her office was not far from the ward, so they soon arrived.
Standing in front of the ward door, she felt inexplicably nervous.
But looking at their clasped hands, she gradually relaxed.
"Mom."
The man pushed open the door.
"I'm here."
Hearing her son's voice, Mother Leng put down the embroidery in her hand and took off her reading glasses.
After seeing the person behind her son clearly, the expressionless look on her face instantly turned into a big smile.
"Huanhuan, long time no see."
She stood up smiling, completely ignoring Leng Chuanjin, and walked straight towards the girl.
Then Lin Shan saw their clasped hands.
Noticing her gaze, Xia Sanghuan instinctively wanted to withdraw her hand, looking as panicked as a student caught while in a relationship.
The man sensed her movement and tightened his grip before she could pull her hand away.
The girl had no choice but to give Mother Leng an embarrassed smile.
And Lin Shan understood everything at this moment.
"Tell me, when did you two start dating?"
She blinked and asked playfully.
"About one, one - plus months..."
Before the girl could finish, the man took over her words.
"Mom."
His expression became solemn.
"There's something we need to tell you."
"Sanghuan is my girlfriend now."
"And she will soon be my fiancée."
Hearing this, the girl slightly widened her eyes.
"No matter whether you agree or not, I will only marry Sanghuan."
His voice was firm, carrying an undeniable tone.
At this moment, Lin Shan didn't care what her son was saying anymore - she just wanted to see the two of them get married.
But Huanhuan hadn't reached the legal age yet, so she could only regretfully stop fantasizing about the wedding scene in her mind.
"Huanhuan, did you hear that?"
"Chuanjin said he will only marry you."
"If he goes back on his word then, I'll break his legs with you."
Mother Leng said to the girl in the gentlest voice, but the content made her son standing beside her fall silent.
"Brother is going to marry Sister Huanhuan?"
Jing Zhan, who had been sleeping, suddenly said.
The three of them immediately shifted their attention to him.
"No, Jing Zhan, we're just..."
Xia Sanghuan was about to explain, but Leng Chuanjin beside her said without hesitation:
"Yes."
"Then I want to be the best man."
Jing Zhan moved his body, and the girl quickly stepped forward to help him sit up.
"Is that okay?"
He looked at her with bright eyes.
"Of course it is."
She touched his face and couldn't bring herself to say no.
Jing Zhan got her affirmative answer and smiled happily.
The group was about to continue chatting when there was a knock on the door.
A doctor pushed the door open with a troubled look on his face and said to Xia Sanghuan:
"Doctor Xia, Dean Xiao sent me to find you."
"The patient's condition seems to be more serious than we predicted."
"I see."
Xia Sanghuan, who had been smiling just a second ago, instantly became serious.
She said goodbye to them and then hurriedly followed the doctor.
Seeing her son's reluctant look, Mother Leng patted his shoulder.
"Are you at ease now?"
Leng Chuanjin was stunned for a moment and then nodded.
"Yeah."
...
Xia Sanghuan was frowning while holding the newly - printed blood test report.
"How is it?"
Xiao Song walked behind her.
"Can it be treated?"
"Of course it can."
She replied, and her steady voice made people feel extremely at ease.
"I'm going to give the patient a preliminary treatment now."
"Please, Elder Xiao, help me find these medicinal materials. Grind them into powder and then boil them in a casserole for three hours."
The girl casually tore off a piece of paper and wrote down the names of the medicinal materials to be used.
Xiao Song took the prescription she handed over and turned around to prepare.
This made the doctors who had been following them unable to tell who was the master and who was the apprentice for a moment.
Moreover, no matter how you looked at it, Deputy Dean Xiao seemed to respect this little girl very much.
Although they were completely confused, they still didn't ask anything.
After all, the incident of the girl replacing Deputy Dean Xiao to discipline the interns had already spread throughout the hospital - even Mother Leng, who was not very interested in gossip, had heard about it.
With this incident in mind, how dared they ask those inappropriate questions?
After giving these instructions, the girl picked up the cupping jars that had been prepared and walked into the patient's ward.
The patient looked very painful at the moment. He closed his eyes tightly and lay on the hospital bed, sweating profusely.
"Turn him over."
Xia Sanghuan laid out the cupping jars and nodded to the nurse who had been waiting there.
