never seen her husband treat anyone so no nicely apart from their son.
No! Even toward their son, she had never seen him so gentle before.

“Similarly, you need not be so formal and cautious around us; you’re one of us now.”

The tears that were in Pei Ge’s eyes rolled down her face finally at the older man’s words.

She did not know how much she cried yesterday, but she knew that her tears this time were out of heartfelt gratitude and joy.

“Mhm!” She nodded heavily, her eyes and nose red.
Right now, she looked funny yet pitiful.

“Aiya! Lao Ji, look at you being all emotional; our Ge Ge is crying now.”

The older woman looked at her future daughter-in-law and her husband, and in that moment, she felt amused.

“Okay, okay.
Don’t cry anymore; you’ll damage your eyes like this.”

Looking at how the lass was crying nonstop, she walked over and used the handkerchief she got from her bag to wipe off the former’s tears.

“Stop crying, alright? Look at how swollen your eyes are now.”

In the end, the more she wiped the tears, the harder the other cried.

It was as if her tears would never come to an end.

“I—hiccup!” Pei Ge cried and hiccupped at the same time.
“I-I don’t want to cry either—hiccup—b-but—hiccup—I just can’t control it.”

Seeing this, the couple exchanged amused glances.

“Ha ha!” Madam Ji laughed out loud, unmindful of the younger woman’s tears.

Compared to her open laughter, Mister Ji was more subtle.

Even though this scene was quite funny, it gave people a warm and fuzzy feeling.

“Ge Ge, you stay here with your mom; I’ll go with your dad to get the details on your mother’s condition,” said the older woman to her with a smile after she settled down.

The knowledge that the two would talk to the doctor agitated her.

“Mom, I’ll go with you!”

She wanted to hear what the doctor had to say about her mother’s condition and if it could be treated.

“You just sit here and rest, lass.
We’ll go,” rejected lightly by the older woman.
She then pushed her down a comfy couch next to the bed.

“But—”

The older woman cut her off before she could say anything.

“Why? Don’t you trust us?”

She could only nod and sit obediently on the couch.

Just like this, only the couple left the ward to go find the doctor in charge of Zhang Manhua as she stayed behind to accompany her mother.

“Lao Ji, do you think… that Manhua’s condition… is as bad as Dr.
He made it out to be?”

“En.
Dr.
He has always been true to his word; he won’t lie to us.”

“Then, isn’t Manhua…”

“I can only say that it depends on fate…”
