My buildings have attributes

While explaining her own situation, Li Ran also inquired about Chen Ling's. Chen Ling replied casually, "You know me, right? Busy with family matters, all that wedding stuff." Before Chen Ling could finish speaking, Li Ran interrupted, "Look at my head! I called you to talk to you about something important. Go home early today; Xiao Qi and I will be there later."

Just then, Chen Ling immediately picked up where Li Ran left off, saying, "Oh, aren't you busy at the company today?" Chen Ling thought it was a workday too. Then he heard Li Ran's explanation. "Me? I didn't go to the company today. I accompanied Xiao Qi to the hospital for her prenatal checkup." At that moment, Chen Ling suddenly realized and said, "Look at me, the older brother, I completely forgot about this! Have the test results come out yet? How is Xiao Qi?" As Chen Ling spoke, he slapped his forehead.

Then Li Ran explained to Chen Ling, "Don't worry, Xiao Qi's health has always been very good. This is just a normal checkup, nothing to worry about." However, at that moment, Chen Ling suddenly asked, "Where are you? Yihe Hospital?" Chen Ling suddenly remembered that this was the hospital where Chen Xiao Qi was having her prenatal checkups, the one he had found for her before. "Yes, Xiao Qi and I are here," Li Ran said to Chen Ling, while turning to look at Chen Xiao Qi's examination room. Then Chen Ling said, "Haha, we're here too. Ning Xue wants to process her father's discharge papers today."

"Oh, is that so? When are you going back? Or should we go back together?" Li Ran asked Chen Ling. Upon hearing this, Chen Ling immediately replied, "No need, I'll be there a while. Even after I'm discharged, I can't go home first; I need to take Ningxue's parents back first." After Chen Ling finished speaking, Li Ran said, "Then we'll head back first. You should also go back early when you're done; we'll be waiting for you at home."

Chapter 295 Discharge from the Hospital 1

So Chen Ling and Li Ran hung up the phone. Chen Xiaoqi hadn't finished her checkup yet. After hanging up, Chen Ling returned to the ward. Meanwhile, Li Lili was still talking to Shen's parents about being discharged. Shen's father seemed quite excited about being discharged.

As I said before, he knows his own body best, and he certainly knows his time is running out. He doesn't need Li Lili to tell him this; he can feel it himself. So he had been thinking about being discharged from the hospital for a long time. It would be more comfortable outside. Lying in the hospital all day, spending money on medical bills, was something Mr. Shen didn't want to do anymore.

However, in Shen's mother's view, it was because Li Lili was unwilling to spend money on Shen's father anymore. Therefore, Shen's mother was very angry with Li Lili because of this. She also firmly opposed Shen's father being discharged from the hospital now, because Shen's father's condition had not improved and was even deteriorating.

Li Lili and Shen's mother remained deadlocked, neither willing to give in. Just then, Chen Ling called Shen's mother out. Chen Ling told Shen's mother he wanted to talk to her alone for a while. After Chen Ling and Shen's mother came out, Chen Ling said to Shen's mother, "Mom, Ningxue and I talked to the doctor yesterday. We originally wanted to ask him if Dad could go away for a while to attend our wedding."

Later, the doctor told us that Dad only had one month left, so Ningxue wanted to prepare to discharge him from the hospital. That way, Dad could spend his last days more comfortably, go out and see the world, and not suffer so much in the hospital.

Upon hearing Chen Ling's words, Mrs. Shen seemed to have lost her soul. She asked Chen Ling in a daze, "What did you say? This is impossible. He's been like this for so many years. Although his health isn't good, nothing serious has ever happened to him. You must be lying to me. This is impossible."

Seeing Shen's mother's expression, Chen Ling began to comfort her, saying, "Mom, don't worry too much. You know about Dad's health, and you know how he is without me having to tell you. Ningxue and I weren't planning to tell you about this, but seeing that you misunderstood Ningxue, I thought it was necessary to tell you. Besides, knowing this will give you some peace of mind."

After Chen Ling finished speaking, Shen's mother stared at him intently. She then turned to look around the ward, saying nothing more. Just then, Chen Ling spoke again, "Mom, don't be too sad. While there's still some time, let Ningxue take you out for a walk, so Dad can have some fun too." Shen's mother listened to Chen Ling's words and began to take them to heart.

“Mom, Dad just lies here day after day, and the doctor says he only has about a month left. But what’s the point of him being here? His lifespan can’t be extended, and every day is the same without any change, no surprises, no expectations. It’s really hard to bear. Even though we always keep Dad’s condition a secret from him, I believe he understands everything. Mom, please don’t think I’m being harsh; my intentions are good.”

Chen Ling's attitude was very sincere, and everything he said made sense, so Shen's mother didn't say anything more. Then she said, "Then let's do it according to your and Ningxue's plan. Have you told the doctor yet?" She was wondering if she had received the doctor's permission for her sudden discharge from the hospital.

Chen Ling said to Shen's mother, "I haven't said anything yet. I need your consent before I can get him to sign. But don't worry, the doctor will definitely agree." After Chen Ling finished speaking, Shen's mother turned to look at Shen's father's ward, then nodded and said, "Okay." So Chen Ling and Shen's mother went back to the ward. However, after returning home, Shen's mother was still acting strangely.

Li Lili, standing nearby, immediately guessed that Chen Ling must have told her about Shen's father's condition. However, Li Lili didn't blame Chen Ling. After all, it was good for Shen's mother to be mentally prepared so that she could take Shen's father for a proper visit after being discharged from the hospital.

Just then, Li Lili said, "Look, as soon as they told us to let Dad out of the hospital, he seemed much better, his eyes were practically shining." Upon hearing Li Lili's words, Mr. Shen couldn't help but smile. It had been a long time since he'd seen Mr. Shen smile like that.

Usually, when Chen Ling saw Mr. Shen, he would only manage a forced smile. "Yes, look, Dad's spirits have improved." Chen Ling said, glancing at Mrs. Shen. Li Lili noticed Chen Ling's gaze and then said to Mrs. Shen, "Mom, look at Dad, isn't he much better?" However, Mrs. Shen couldn't muster any enthusiasm after hearing Li Lili's words, and simply said indifferently, "Yes, he's much better. By the way, Ningxue, get your dad some water." Mrs. Shen's tone was indifferent, and after speaking, she lowered her head again, picking at her fingers.

Seeing this, Mr. Shen naturally understood Mrs. Shen's thoughts. So he said to Li Lili, "Ningxue, don't bother, let your mother pour it." Mrs. Shen looked up after hearing Mr. Shen's words. Upon seeing this, Li Lili immediately responded to Mr. Shen's words, saying, "Okay, Mom, go pour Dad a glass of water." Li Lili looked at Mr. Shen while glancing at Mrs. Shen out of the corner of her eye.

However, at that moment, Shen's mother stood up and poured water for Shen's father.

After Mrs. Shen handed the water to Mr. Shen, he said to her, "Are you feeling down? Don't be angry with Ningxue. She's just trying to help me. She knows I'm unhappy and uncomfortable in the hospital, so she wanted to take me out. Don't overthink it. Ningxue isn't afraid of spending money. If she were, she would have spent a lot over the years. You can't blame her. Don't let this cause any rift between you and her." Mr. Shen's words were very insightful and true.

Upon hearing this, Shen's mother nodded. As Li Lili's mother, she naturally understood what kind of child she was. What she had just said was merely a slip of the tongue due to her heightened emotions.

Chapter 296 Discharge from Hospital 2

After hearing Mr. Shen's words, Mrs. Shen felt much more at ease. No matter what, there was no escaping it. Regardless of their attitude, they had to face it. Since it was an unchangeable fact, they should accept it calmly. Mrs. Shen's thinking had become somewhat more optimistic.

Meanwhile, Chen Xiaoqi, having finished her checkup, had also come out. As soon as she emerged, Li Ran rushed up to her and asked, "What did the doctor tell you? How were the results?" Seeing Li Ran's hurried manner, Chen Xiaoqi immediately laughed.

Then she said, "I'm fine, don't worry. The doctor said everything's fine and I should get plenty of rest." As soon as Chen Xiaoqi finished speaking, Li Ran added, "That's good, that's good. By the way, I just called my brother, he's at the hospital too." No sooner had Li Ran finished speaking than Chen Xiaoqi asked, "Huh? What's he doing here? Who's sick?" Chen Xiaoqi was very puzzled.

Just then, Li Ran began to tell Chen Xiaoqi, "It's your sister-in-law's family member; they're in the hospital here. Luckily, they're scheduled to be discharged today." Upon hearing Li Ran's words, Chen Xiaoqi immediately understood what was going on. She had heard about this from her mother not long ago, but due to the saying "pregnancy makes you forgetful for three years," her memory had deteriorated, and she had forgotten it immediately after hearing it.

Chen Xiaoqi then said, "Li Ran, my sister-in-law and I get along quite well. Since we're already here and live so close by, why don't we go over and take a look?" Li Ran agreed. So Chen Xiaoqi took out her phone again, ready to call Chen Ling.

As soon as Chen Ling's phone rang, he saw it was Chen Xiaoqi calling and knew what was going on. Li Ran must have told Chen Xiaoqi he was also at the hospital. So Chen Ling answered the phone and immediately asked, "Hey, what's up? Xiaoqi, are you done with your prenatal checkup?" Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaoqi immediately said to Chen Ling, "Brother, where are you? Have you left yet? Are you still at the hospital?"

After hearing Chen Xiaoqi's words, Chen Ling roughly understood what she meant, so he said to her, "Not yet, still at the hospital. Are you coming over?" Chen Xiaoqi then said to Chen Ling, "Yes, brother, I haven't had time to come and see you. It's so rare that we're so close, why don't I go and visit?" Hearing Chen Xiaoqi's words, Chen Ling didn't say much and simply said to her, "Okay, then come over."

After hanging up Chen Ling's call, Chen Xiaoqi led Li Ran towards the ward Chen Ling had mentioned. A short while later, Chen Xiaoqi and Li Ran arrived at Shen's father's ward. Chen Xiaoqi knocked on the door twice and went straight in. After entering, Chen Xiaoqi and Li Ran greeted, "Uncle and Aunt."

Then Chen Ling said, "I just told you, my sister came for a check-up and came to see you. This is my sister and brother-in-law." As soon as Chen Ling finished speaking, Li Lili asked happily, "Xiaoqi, your belly is so big now, how was your prenatal check-up? Is everything alright?"

"It's alright, it's alright, everything's fine, sister-in-law, don't worry about me." Chen Xiaoqi said to Li Lili. But at that moment, Li Lili burst out laughing. Looking at Chen Xiaoqi now, she realized he was truly an adult.

However, at that moment, Chen Ling said, "You guys chat first, I need to go talk to the doctor about something, and then I'll handle the discharge procedures." As he spoke, Chen Ling prepared to leave. After Chen Ling left, Chen Xiaoqi asked Mr. Shen, "Uncle, how are you feeling? You seem to be doing well." Hearing Chen Xiaoqi's question, Mr. Shen happily replied, "Yes, yes, I'm feeling great. I'm so sorry to have worried you." Mr. Shen smiled as he spoke. It seemed he was genuinely happy about being discharged today.

So Chen Xiaoqi chatted with Shen's parents again. Meanwhile, Chen Ling arrived at the doctor's office. After entering, Chen Ling began explaining their plans to the doctor. He said, "Ningxue and I thought about it and decided to process her father's discharge. As you said yesterday, the old man has about a month left. We want him to go out and see the world. Staying in this ward all the time isn't good for him; he probably feels quite depressed. We think being discharged might improve his mood. And with the New Year approaching, we can't let him spend it all in the hospital."

The doctor naturally understood what Chen Ling was saying. He also knew what Chen Ling and his family had considered. So he immediately said, "Okay, I understand what you mean. It's a good idea. Take the old man out for a walk. I'll prescribe some medicine for you to take home later." After the doctor finished speaking, he immediately wrote out a prescription for Chen Ling, then issued a certificate for him to complete the discharge procedures.

Then Chen Ling took the certificate and went to complete the discharge procedures. After everything was done, Chen Ling went to the pharmacy to get some medicine. Once finished, Chen Ling immediately ran back to the ward. He thought that if he went back now, he could go home for lunch. So, when Chen Ling returned to Shen's father's ward, he immediately said, "The procedures are all done, you can be discharged now."

As soon as Chen Ling finished speaking, Chen Xiaoqi said, "Alright, you guys go ahead with your work, Uncle, Aunt, we'll be leaving now." After saying that, Chen Xiaoqi prepared to leave with Li Ran. So Li Ran said goodbye to them again, and then she and Chen Xiaoqi prepared to go back first. However, after Chen Xiaoqi and the others left, Chen Ling helped Mr. Shen pack his things, preparing for his discharge from the hospital.

Chen Ling quickly helped Mr. Shen pack his things, and they were ready to be discharged. However, as Mr. Shen and his family were about to leave, Mr. Shen looked back at his hospital bed. Upon reaching the door, Mr. Shen said, "Let's go see Ninglu. I haven't seen her since we came to the hospital."

As soon as Mr. Shen finished speaking, Chen Ling immediately said, "Oh dear, look at my head! I should have brought you to see her first." After hearing Mr. Shen's words, Chen Ling realized that he hadn't thought things through and had overlooked something.

Chapter 297 Meticulous Care

Chen Ling quickly led Mr. Shen and the others to Shen Ninglu's ward, intending to visit her one last time before her discharge. Shen Ninglu's ward wasn't too far from Mr. Shen's. They walked and chatted along the way, arriving quickly.

Just then, they stood outside Shen Ninglu's hospital room, watching her inside. They saw that Shen Ninglu was already eating. The caregiver handed her the food, and Shen Ninglu initially refused to eat. Then the caregiver fed her. Shen Ninglu stopped resisting and began to eat. After standing outside for a while, Shen's father and the others didn't go in but prepared to leave.

After turning around, Mr. Shen said to them, "Let's go, let's go back. Don't go back in, lest Ninglu misses us and doesn't want us to leave." At that moment, Mrs. Shen heard Mr. Shen's words and agreed wholeheartedly.

She naturally knew that once she went in, leaving would inevitably cause some emotional distress. Now that she had seen them, it was better to go back first. She could come back to visit again later. Just then, Mr. Shen and the others started walking back.

Upon reaching the hospital entrance, Chen Ling said to Mr. Shen and the others, "Wait here for me a moment, I'll go get the car." After saying this, Chen Ling immediately ran back to get the car. Watching Chen Ling's busy figure, Mr. Shen felt relieved. Li Lili finding a good home was a stroke of luck amidst their family's misfortune.

"When we get back, I'll cook you something delicious," Mrs. Shen said gently, following Mr. Shen's gaze. Mr. Shen, upon hearing this, smiled at Mrs. Shen and said, "Okay." Then Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen chatted for a while, while Li Lili stood awkwardly to the side.

Then they heard Li Lili complaining. She said, "Dad, it was definitely the right decision to discharge you. Look at your spirits, you're so much better now." Mr. Shen laughed immediately after hearing Li Lili's words.

Mr. Shen began by saying, "Haha, I'm happy not to be lying in the hospital." After chatting for a while, Chen Ling arrived in his car. Then Li Lili pushed Mr. Shen's wheelchair over. "Come on, let me do it," Chen Ling said after getting out of the car, immediately going over to push Mr. Shen over.

Upon reaching the car door, Chen Ling grabbed Shen's father and placed him in a seat. Li Lili and Shen's mother then hurriedly got into the car, and Chen Ling drove them home.

On the way, Chen Ling began to instruct Shen's mother, "These next few days, go home and rest well. Let Ningxue take care of you at home. After we get married, we'll go out and have some fun." Chen Ling was thinking that after the wedding, he would take Shen's father and the others around to relax.

"No need, no need. You're so busy with work, don't worry about us. Let Ningxue stay home, that's enough," Mr. Shen said, patting Li Lili's hand. Chen Ling, after hearing Mr. Shen's words, didn't say anything more, simply continuing to drive.

Chen Ling had originally planned to have Li Lili take Shen's father out for a visit, as he was also worried about him and intended to go along. However, it seemed that Shen's father didn't intend to go out. Chen Ling thought it was probably for the best, considering that Shen's father's health condition might not be able to handle it.

It's actually quite good that things aren't going so smoothly. However, Chen Ling hadn't anticipated that the Yihe Hospital he thought he built, with its supposed special properties that could increase the chances of recovery, still couldn't save or change people's lives. Lost in thought while driving, Chen Ling became distracted. "Watch out!" Li Lili shouted. It turned out the light was red; Chen Ling hadn't noticed.

"What are you thinking about, Chen Ling?" Li Lili's tone held a hint of displeasure. After all, she still harbored some lingering trauma from the car accident, especially since Mr. and Mrs. Shen were also in the car.

Then Chen Ling said in a flustered voice, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was just thinking about something and my mind wandered." After hearing Chen Ling's words, Li Lili did not intend to forgive him so easily, so she turned her head to the side and ignored him.

However, Mrs. Shen, who was standing nearby, began to smooth things over between the two of them. She said, "Alright, alright, Chen Ling, drive carefully." Just as she finished speaking, the light turned green. Chen Ling said "Okay" and stepped on the gas, speeding forward.

The journey back was a bit awkward. Ever since Mrs. Shen's words, they hadn't said a word. Only Mr. and Mrs. Shen exchanged a few words here and there. But seeing that it wasn't working, they simply stopped talking altogether.

Seeing this, Chen Ling didn't say anything more and focused on driving, afraid that another accident might happen if he wasn't careful. A long time passed before they finally arrived at Li Lili's house. Actually, it wasn't so much that time seemed to drag on endlessly; it felt like an eternity. "Be careful, be careful," Li Lili said as Chen Ling helped Shen's father out of the car.

After Chen Ling stopped the car, he immediately helped Mr. Shen out. Chen Ling then led Mr. Shen into the house, and Li Lili hurriedly went ahead to open the door. Mrs. Shen followed behind, carrying groceries. Once inside Li Lili's house, Chen Ling first helped Mr. Shen into the living room, then helped Li Lili check the appliances and gas supplies before finally feeling relieved.

After checking everything, Chen Ling said to Li Lili, "These things haven't been used in so long, but thankfully nothing's broken." As soon as Chen Ling finished speaking, Shen's mother smiled. Then she added, "Look how good Chen Ling is, so thoughtful, always thinking of everything." After Shen's mother finished speaking, Shen's father also quickly praised him. After chatting for a while, Li Lili said she had to cook dinner; she'd been busy all morning and hadn't eaten yet. So Chen Ling quickly said he would go to the supermarket to buy some groceries.

Chapter 298 Never Tired of Being Together

Since no one had lived in the house for so long, there wasn't much food to eat. Then, Li Lili wanted to go to the supermarket with Chen Ling to buy groceries, but Chen Ling refused. He said, "We just got home, and there's still a lot to tidy up. I'll go buy some groceries first. You tidy up the house and make the beds for Mom and Dad." Hearing Chen Ling's words, Li Lili stayed.

She started cleaning the room. Chen Ling, of course, went to buy groceries. A short while later, Chen Ling returned with bags full of groceries. Shen's mother, standing nearby, was stunned to see so much.

So, she asked Chen Ling with surprise, "Chen Ling, why are you carrying so much stuff? We can't possibly eat all of this." Hearing this, Chen Ling looked down at the things in his hands. Then he heard Shen's father say the same thing. "Mom and Dad, I just thought the refrigerator would still work, so I'll leave the stuff here. It won't spoil anyway, and I don't want Ningxue to forget to go grocery shopping someday," Chen Ling explained casually.

After Chen Ling finished speaking, Li Lili ran out of the room and said with a smile, "You bought so much, how long will it take to eat it all?" "Alright, alright, let Chen Ling rest for a while, I'll go cook." After taking the food from Chen Ling, Shen's mother started walking towards the kitchen. However, Chen Ling didn't sit idle either; he quickly grabbed a mop and prepared to mop the floor. It had been so long since anyone had lived there, and some dust had accumulated.

Just then, Li Lili had already made the beds in both rooms. "I'll go get some water and wipe the cabinets down," Li Lili said after coming out and seeing Chen Ling mopping the floor. "No need, no need, I'll be done mopping soon. You rest for a bit, I'll come and wipe it down later," Chen Ling said, turning to look at Li Lili. However, Li Lili ignored Chen Ling's words, grabbed a rag, and prepared to start working.

Li Lili was straightforward and couldn't stand being idle. Seeing something to do, she naturally wouldn't leave it unattended. Chen Ling saw that Li Lili had already brought over the basin, ready to start cleaning, so he didn't say anything more. Fortunately, Li Lili's house wasn't big, and she didn't have many things, so the chores were finished in no time. At this time, Shen's mother had already prepared the meal.

So Chen Ling, Li Lili, and Shen's father went over for dinner. "Mom and Dad, I have to go back soon," Chen Ling said as soon as he sat down.

"Okay, okay, we know. Xiaoqi mentioned it this morning," Shen's mother said immediately after hearing Chen Ling's words. This morning, when Chen Xiaoqi and Li Ran went to see Shen's father, they mentioned they were going home, so they also suggested that Li Lili and Chen Ling come over for dinner that evening.

"Mmm," Chen Ling nodded. "Then Chen Ling, I won't go over tonight. I already saw Xiao Qi this morning, so you can go home by yourself later," Li Lili said, looking up at Chen Ling. "Okay, then what about a change of clothes..." Chen Ling didn't say much after hearing Li Lili's words. He understood Li Lili's intention—she wanted to spend more time with her family. Before Chen Ling could finish speaking, Li Lili interrupted him.

Li Lili said calmly, "It's alright, I still have some clothes at home. You don't need to bring me any more. The company is quite busy at the end of the year." Li Lili was telling the truth; the holiday was approaching, and there was a lot to do.

"Are you still going to the company's annual party tomorrow night?" Chen Ling asked, thinking about the company's annual party tomorrow. "I..." Li Lili said, turning to look at Mr. and Mrs. Shen.

"It's alright, Ningxue. It's a rare occasion during the New Year, you should go and participate," said Mr. Shen as he drove Li Lili along.

So Li Lili hesitated before saying, "Okay then. I'll go tomorrow night." Li Lili thought she would come back a little early after she left. Then they continued chatting about a few more topics, and before long, they finished lunch. Chen Ling then prepared to go back.

"Mom and Dad, Ningxue, I'll head back now." Chen Ling said after they finished eating. "Okay, you can go back if you have something to do," Shen's mother quickly replied.

"Okay, then if you need anything, just give me a call. If you need anything, just tell me directly," Chen Ling said to them.

They smiled and said, "Okay, okay." Then, they had Li Lili take him home. After Chen Ling and Li Lili left the house, Chen Ling began to tell Li Lili, "Call me if anything happens."

“Okay, I know, don’t worry.” Li Lili immediately replied to Chen Ling. “Then I’ll come pick you up tomorrow night.” Chen Ling stopped and began to speak.

"No need, I'll go by myself tomorrow. You'll definitely be going to the company, right? Then you and your colleagues can go together." Li Lili stopped and looked at Chen Ling, saying this. Chen Ling didn't say anything more.

"Okay, then call me when you arrive tomorrow, and I'll pick you up at the door." Chen Ling once again displayed his gentlemanly manners, instructing Li Lili.

"Okay." Li Lili smiled immediately after hearing this, and then continued talking.

Then Chen Ling turned around and prepared to go back. Seeing this, Li Lili also prepared to go home. However, at this moment, Chen Ling suddenly ran up to Li Lili and kissed her on the cheek with a "slap".

Li Lili covered her cheeks and said, "What are you doing? We're an old married couple." You could hear the shyness in her voice.

Then Chen Ling said like a boy in love, "Nothing, nothing, just getting to know each other better. We haven't seen each other for a long time." Li Lili felt a little uncomfortable after hearing Chen Ling's words.

So Li Lili began, "Alright, we've already got the marriage certificate, but you're acting like you just started dating. Besides, I didn't see you like this when we were dating." Li Lili pouted as she spoke, her expression absolutely adorable.

"Haha, I'll make it all up to you. You said we're an old married couple, so we've been living together for a long time. You said we're a young couple in love, so we're a young couple who just got together." Chen Ling looked at Li Lili's expression and liked it very much, then he started talking.

Chapter 299 Casual Chat

Chen Ling's flirting skills were truly impressive; with just a few words, he had Li Lili's girlish heart fluttering. Li Lili even felt embarrassed and shyly ran back home. After watching Li Lili run away, Chen Ling stood there amused for a while before preparing to go home himself. On the way back, the song "First Love" played on repeat in the car. After listening to it several times, Chen Ling suddenly shook his head and said, "What am I doing? How old am I? Why am I acting like a child?"

After talking to himself, Chen Ling turned off the music and focused on driving home. A little while later, Chen Ling arrived home. As soon as he entered the house, he heard his mother speaking.

"There are only two months left, so you need to be careful. If there's anything you don't know, just ask me or Li Ran's mother. In case of any emergency, call the hospital immediately." Chen's mother was simply giving Chen Xiaoqi some instructions.

"Mom and Dad, Xiaoqi, Li Ran," Chen Ling greeted them.

As soon as Chen Ling finished speaking, Li Ran hurriedly said, "Brother, you're back." Li Ran was almost bored to death staying at the Chen family's house, and she was just waiting for Chen Ling to come back so she could chat with him for a while.

Mr. and Mrs. Chen spent the entire afternoon talking to Chen Xiaoqi about things to ensure a safe pregnancy. Li Ran initially listened with interest, but later found it boring.
