#57 - Chapter 57 Meet Xu Mengyao’s parents!

"Click!"

Xu Guofeng opened the door.

"Grandpa!"

Lin Xiaoqian called out happily. Lin Chen smiled slightly, "Uncle Xu, my name is Lin Chen, and I am Qianqian's father."

Lin Xiaoqian: "Daddy, you're wrong. Grandpa is Mommy's father. You should call Grandpa daddy too."

Xu Guofeng reached out and hugged Lin Xiaoqian. He kissed Lin Xiaoqian and said with a smile, "Qianqian, you are right. I will let your father correct this mistake later."

"Lin Chen, come in quickly. You must be tired from such a long flight. I thought you would come tomorrow."

The three of them entered the room. This ward was a suite, with a living room outside and the patient's room inside.

"Xiaoqian said she missed Grandpa and Grandma."

"It was convenient to come, so we came directly."

Lin Chen said, taking off a painting tube hanging on his shoulder, "Uncle Xu, I didn't know what gift to bring. I hope you and Aunt Yang will like this painting."

Xu Guofeng: "It's already a trouble for you to bring Qianqian here. What gifts are you bringing? We should be thanking you."

Lin Xiaoqian was a little puzzled.

Her grandfather didn't seem to be very familiar with her father.

"Grandpa, where's Grandma?"

Lin Xiaoqian asked.

Xu Guofeng smiled and said, "Your grandma is asleep and hasn't woken up yet, but she should be waking up around this time."

"Husband, is Qianqian here? Let me see Qianqian quickly."

Yang Qingyue inside the ward said anxiously.

Xu Guofeng hugged Lin Xiaoqian and pushed open the door. Lin Xiaoqian stared blankly at Yang Qingyue on the hospital bed, and her eyes quickly turned red: "Grandma, you've lost weight."

In a short time, a mist appeared in Lin Xiaoqian's eyes.

"Qianqian, don't cry."

"Grandma is fine. Grandma has just been eating less lately. The food here doesn't quite suit Grandma's taste."

Yang Qingyue comforted her in a panic.

Lin Xiaoqian shed tears: "Grandma, are you sick? You must get well soon."

"Yes, yes."

"Grandma will seize the time to recover."

Yang Qingyue said quickly.

As she spoke, her gaze fell on Lin Chen.

"Aunt Yang, my name is Lin Chen, and I am Xiaoqian's father."

Yang Qingyue smiled: "Mengyao said that you are taking care of Qianqian now, and you are taking good care of her. Thank you for your hard work."

Lin Chen shook his head: "Taking care of Xiaoqian is not hard. Xiaoqian is very sensible, and she brings me a lot of joy."

Xu Guofeng helped Yang Qingyue sit up.

"Grandma, your hands have also become thin."

Lin Xiaoqian held Yang Qingyue's hand with her small hands. Yang Qingyue was not fat to begin with, and now her hands felt a little withered and skinny.

"Qianqian, don't worry, Grandma will be fine."

Yang Qingyue said softly.

Lin Xiaoqian: "Grandma, you need to eat more."

Speaking of this, Lin Xiaoqian's eyes lit up, and she looked at Lin Chen: "Daddy, can we bring food for Grandma?"

"Of course."

Lin Chen said with a smile.

Lin Xiaoqian said happily: "Grandma, Daddy's cooking is the most delicious. Grandma, you will definitely like it."

"Really? Then Grandma is looking forward to it."

Yang Qingyue said with a smile, "Husband, please help me get out of bed. I'll get up and sit in the living room outside."

"Qianqian, let's go out first."

Lin Chen took Lin Xiaoqian outside. A few minutes later, Xu Guofeng and Yang Qingyue arrived outside.

The living room area was fifty or sixty square meters, with sofas and a TV. Such a hospital environment was quite good.

The daily expenses were naturally not low.

"Grandma, Daddy is also a doctor. Since you are sick, do you want Daddy to take a look at you?"

Lin Xiaoqian said in a childish voice.

Yang Qingyue said in surprise: "Lin Chen, you also know medical skills?"

Lin Chen nodded: "I know a little bit. I can handle Xiaoqian's cold, but I may not be able to handle complex ones."

"That's also good."

"It's common for children to have colds, fevers, and coughs."

Yang Qingyue said with a smile, "Lao Xu showed me the video of you playing basketball. I didn't expect you to be so good at basketball."

Lin Xiaoqian's eyes lit up: "Grandma, I watched Daddy play basketball. Daddy is the best."

Xu Guofeng: "Lin Chen, do you want to develop in the NBA? I can help you find some connections to get you into the NBA to play basketball."

"Uncle Xu, I don't have this idea for the time being. The most important thing for me now is to take good care of Xiaoqian."

Lin Chen said.

Xu Guofeng nodded: "If you have any ideas in the future, tell me, and I will try my best to help you arrange it."

"Uncle Xu, thank you."

Lin Xiaoqian was puzzled: "Daddy, you guys are strange."

"What's wrong?"

Lin Chen asked.

Lin Xiaoqian said in confusion: "Daddy, we are a family. It is right for a family to help each other. Grandpa thanks you, and you thank Grandpa."

"Why?"

Yang Qingyue: "Qianqian, maybe it's because Grandpa and Grandma and your father haven't seen each other for too long. Over time, we have become a little estranged(生份: distant/estranged).".

"Lao Xu, go out for a walk with Lin Chen, and you guys have a good chat."

"Qianqian, Grandma will play with you."

Lin Xiaoqian nodded.

Lin Chen and Xu Guofeng went downstairs.

Xu Guofeng chose a very high-end private hospital. The environment inside the hospital was very good, and the downstairs was like a park.

"Lin Chen, regarding the incident that happened that year, we actually have to say thank you. If it weren't for you, Mengyao's psychological trauma would definitely have been much greater."

"She might even have thought of doing something drastic(想不开: not seeing things clearly)."

The two walked slowly as Xu Guofeng spoke.

Lin Chen shook his head: "Uncle Xu, there's no need to thank me."

Xu Guofeng: "We still have to thank you properly."

"If you want to enter the NBA, I'll help you get in. If you don't want to, I'll provide you with ten million yuan in start-up funds."

Lin Chen thought to himself, it seems that Xu Mengyao didn't say anything.

If she had said it, Xu Guofeng should know that he doesn't need ten million yuan in start-up funds at all now.

"Uncle Xu, do you disagree with us being together?"

Xu Guofeng shook his head: "Don't misunderstand. I don't mean that. If you were extremely ordinary, I would disagree. You can't just be together because of Qianqian."

"That way, you will still separate when Qianqian grows up."

"This kind of marriage is just wasting your time."

"You have a daughter now, as a father, can you understand?"

Lin Chen nodded: "I can understand."

Xu Guofeng: "The situation is different now. You play basketball extremely well, which is a big highlight for you."

"It doesn't matter if you don't have money or anything, as long as you are excellent in one aspect. If you can truly be together, Mengyao and I will bless you."

Lin Chen looked at Xu Guofeng in surprise.

Xu Guofeng was much easier to talk to than he had estimated.

Xu Guofeng sighed softly: "If you are together, Mengyao may truly be able to walk out of the shadow of that year."

Lin Chen: "Uncle Xu, I will help Mengyao walk out."

"Yes."

Xu Guofeng nodded slightly.

"What are your plans for the future?"

"If you start a business, I can give you some advice. If you choose basketball, then you have to work hard yourself."

Lin Chen smiled: "Uncle Xu, actually I have a job now, and I can earn some money every month."
