Chapter 257: Being Truthful (1)

In the ward, Wang Yunmei was lying on the bed reading a book.

All these years, for the sake of this family, for the sake of her son and daughter, she had not relaxed at all.

Because she had some leisure time in the hospital, she felt that it was very precious to her. Therefore, she asked Jian Yu to buy a few books for her. She could read them during the day when she had nothing to do. However, most of these books were management books. It was obvious that she wanted to enrich herself while she was hospitalized. After all, Elder Ji insisted on her keeping the position as Yaochi’s manager.

“Mom, take the medicine first.”

Jian Yu walked to the bed and took the book from Wang Yunmei’s hand. He handed the medicine to her with his other hand and spoke softly.

Wang Yunmei took the medicine and ate it. Then, she drank a glass of water as she looked at Jian Yu. “Find some time to go home and take a look. I wonder if Xiao Ai is back.”

Jian Yu went back home two days ago, but there was no one at home. He went to his aunt’s house again. Only then did he know from Wang Yunzhi that Jian Ai had gone out with Jiachi.

“Mom, don’t worry. If Xiao Ai comes back, she’ll visit the hospital immediately,” Jian Yu said softly.

As soon as she finished speaking, the door of the ward was pushed open.

Jian Ai walked into the ward with a smile. “Mom, Brother!”

“When did you come back?” Jian Yu was stunned for a moment before asking.

“I just came back.” Jian Ai smiled and looked at Wang Yunmei. “Mom, how have you been feeling these past few days?”

Wang Yunmei had lost quite a bit of weight these days, but her mental state was very good. When she saw her daughter return, she was even more delighted. She immediately nodded and said, “Very good. Don’t worry!”

Jian Ai pulled a chair and sat down beside the bed. She said, “I went to Doctor Xiao’s office just now. He said that you can be discharged and go home to recuperate in half a month.”

When Wang Yunmei heard this, she couldn’t help but show a happy expression. “Really? Doctor Xiao said that?”

Jian Ai smiled and nodded. “I know you don’t want to lie in the hospital every day, so I specially asked him.”

“That’s great. The new house is still waiting to be renovated. I’ve been thinking about it for the past few days,” Wang Yunmei said.

Jian Yu frowned. “Mom, they want you to be discharged from the hospital to recuperate. You haven’t been discharged yet, but you’re already thinking of renovating the house. It won’t be too late to renovate after you have recovered!”

“It’s fine!” Jian Ai smiled at Jian Yu and looked at Wang Yunmei. “Doctor Xiao said that appropriate exercise is good for the body. You can busy yourself with the new house if you want, but don’t burn yourself out.”

Then, she added, “Don’t think about returning to Yaochi for work after you’re discharged. Doctor Xiao said that you can’t drink or stay up late!”

Looking at her daughter’s expression, Wang Yunmei couldn’t help but chuckle. However, she nodded and promised, “Alright, Mom knows. I’ll go to work after I’ve completely recovered!”

Not long after she had finished her medicine, Wang Yunmei felt sleepy. Not long after, she fell asleep.

Jian Yu and Jian Ai walked out of the ward lightly. Jian Yu looked at Jian Ai and asked, “Where did you go? You were away for a few days.”

There was worry in his tone and a hint of reprimand. After all, his sister had never had a holiday before, let alone bring Jiachi along. Add up both their ages, they were not even thirty years old. It was not safe.

Hearing the concern in her brother’s tone, Jian Ai pursed her lips and smiled. She said, “I took Jiachi to Macau!”
