The next day at eight o'clock in the morning, the hospital.
Tang Xiaowan saw Wang Jinghui going to complete the procedures and Leng Lingxiao going to consult the doctor. She and Tang Mei were the only ones left in the ward, so she immediately closed the door.
She had already told Tang Mei about the break-in at No. 66 Chunlei Street last night.
Sure enough, as Tang Xiaowan guessed, it was Tang Mei who did it deliberately and waited for others to steal it. As for the reason, she did not directly clarify it to Tang Xiaowan. She only said that it was a favor that she owed others before and it was time to repay it.
However, apart from that, there is another thing that is deeply bothering Tang Xiaowan right now.
She quickly sat in front of the hospital bed, gently held Tang Mei's hand, and said with a smile: "Grandma, I have always been curious and want to ask you whether I met Huahua first or you met Huahua first, and... How did his parents meet?"
Tang Mei shook her head and smiled slightly.
In fact, she only knew a rough idea about how they met, and she only heard it from the housekeeper Li Fugui later.
"Come on, grandma, how did Huahua and I know each other?" Tang Xiaowan continued to ask.
"Okay, okay, let me tell you."
Tang Xiaowan looked at Tang Mei expectantly: "Say it quickly, it's going to scare me to death."
"Before, there was a very big tree on the road at the entrance of Meiyuan, and you always liked to climb up and play on it. Leng Lingxiao was passing by, and he was afraid that you would fall, so he lied to you and said there was a snake on it, and then you pestered him and let him He caught snakes for you to eat, and that’s how we got to know each other.”
"How old was I then?"
"I just turned five and it's your birthday."
"Wow, I can climb trees at the age of five?"
"Climbing trees doesn't matter. What you like most is to go to the roof. You can't wait to live on it."
Speaking of the roof, Tang Xiaowan smiled.
She just likes the roof. No wonder she slept so soundly last night. Leng Lingxiao even walked up to her without even knowing it.
"What about his parents? How did they meet?"
"Of course it was also because of you. From then on, Leng Lingxiao often sneaked to Qingcheng to see you. It didn't take long for his parents to find out."
"He was only 15 years old at that time, right? He didn't even have to go to school. Why did he keep visiting me?"
"I don't know. Ask him later."
"Oh, then...where is that tree? I haven't seen it since I went back to the Plum Garden several times. Could it be that it was cut down?"
Tang Mei nodded with a smile, and then patted Tang Xiaowan's doubtful little head.
"Oh my God, this is definitely Huahua's doing. He is the only one who can do such a thing. He must be trying to cut off my thoughts. There will be no tree to climb in the future."
"It wasn't him, it was you who asked Old Li to do it."
Tang Xiaowan was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Li Fugui? How could this happen? I don't like climbing trees very much. Why should I cut them down?"
"You were very naughty when you were a child. Every time you thought about it, you would make grandma half angry to death every day. But, strange to say, you and Leng Lingxiao played very well. He would play hide and seek with you whenever he had free time. Maomao plays the role of mother... to make you happy, and often brings things to the Plum Garden, all of which are rare things. He is really a good boy with a kind heart."
"Hey, I can't even remember it. What a pity. That memory must have been particularly beautiful!"
"It doesn't matter. Just forget it. Just live a good life now. Leng Lingxiao is a nice person and worthy of trust. Grandma is now looking forward to you getting married and having children soon, so that you can live happily together."
After saying this, Tang Xiaowan nodded shyly.
Huahua and I actually met on his birthday, so we caught snakes to eat because of pestering him?
He's a boy actually playing the role of mother?
I must have been very annoying at that time, and I must have cried a lot, so he relented.
When Leng Lingxiao came back from the doctor's office, Tang Xiaowan looked at him steadily, her heart filled with gratitude. He was like a warm sun shining on her young heart.
Even after losing her memory, she still fell in love with him again.
"Thank you, and uncle and aunt."
Leng Lingxiao smiled and touched her head and said, "Silly girl, why are you so polite to me?"
They looked at each other and smiled, knowing in their hearts that this deep relationship was a testimony of experiencing the wind and rain together, accompanying each other, and growing up together.
…
On the other side, Wang Jinghui was walking through the corridors of the hospital, holding medical records and relevant documents in his hands, his face filled with happiness and joy.
At this moment, he suddenly saw an acquaintance, Jiang Yongheng's sister, Jiang Yongli.
They met at a drinking party.
Jiang Yongli also noticed Wang Jinghui and quickly smiled and waved to him.
"Brother Wang, it's really you! Long time no see, what a coincidence. How have you been lately?" Jiang Yongli asked with a smile, looking very excited.
"Very good, Miss Jiang, what are you..."
"My friend is having a baby, come and see her."
"Oh, what a joy!"
Jiang Yongli glanced at the medical record in Wang Jinghui's hand and seemed to realize something, so she asked tentatively: "Are you coming to see a friend?"
"No, I'm going to handle the discharge procedures for Tang Mei." Wang Jinghui answered truthfully and without any secret.
Your surname is Tang? His late wife's side?
Jiang Yongli was a little surprised and glanced at the case sheet again: "Your... relatives?"
Wang Jinghui shook his head and hesitated, not knowing how to introduce the relationship between himself and Tang Mei. After all, Tang Mei has rejected his proposal and is at best a good friend now.
Just when he was about to answer as his fiancé, Jiang Yongli smiled slightly and spoke first.
"Isn't this the new person to talk to?"
"No, I am the marriage partner I have been secretly in love with for a long time, but I am still pursuing her. The competition is too fierce, and I am afraid that others will look down on me, hahaha."
Although Wang Jinghui always speaks casually, this reply is really self-deprecating.
However, in his heart, Tang Mei was indeed an unattainable person for him. He was when he was young and still is now when he is older.
It doesn't matter if she doesn't admit that she is his long-lost wife, he can start chasing her from the beginning.
Wang Jinghui swore secretly in his heart.
Through the medical records, Jiang Yongli has clearly seen Tang Mei's relevant information, including her age.
65-year-old lady, competition is too fierce?
I am only 40 years old, but I was rejected by you. Do I think I will become more popular as I get older?
She's not a billionaire, right?
Jiang Yongli became more and more angry as she thought about it, but she soon regained her composure.
She needs to maintain her good manners.
"Oh, that's really congratulations. I finally found your significant other. How about I go see her? I just don't have anything to do here."
"Thank you, Tang Mei doesn't like meeting strangers."
Jiang Yongli saw Wang Jinghui's concerns and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future, so see you soon. I'll contact you if you have any questions."
"OK, bye."
After the two separated, Wang Jinghui continued to the place where discharge procedures were completed.
In this awkward encounter, he inexplicably felt a little pressure and helplessness, but he also strengthened his determination to marry Tang Mei.
Little did he know that Jiang Yongli was already secretly following him.
Out of curiosity, she wanted to take a peek and see what kind of old woman Tang Mei was who could actually win over her male god Wang Jinghui.
