Grandma Wen’s 90th birthday is scheduled for the weekend.
When Wen Li drove to pick up her parents, Wen Yongjie looked into her car and saw that she was the only one there. He asked, "Why are you alone? Where's Yuanchen?"
Wen Li exclaimed, "Ah!", remembering that she had kept her breakup with Huo Yuanchen a secret from her family.
Wen Yongjie was not in good health at that time, and she was afraid to tell her father and make him angry. But now Wen Yongjie is much better.
The last time he went to the hospital for a checkup, even the doctor said that he had recovered very well. In the past, few patients of his age could recover so quickly.
Wen Yongjie proudly told the doctor, "Thanks to my daughter's boyfriend, he always remembered to send me medicine every once in a while. I never stopped taking such expensive medicine, so I was able to recover so quickly."
The doctor asked him the name of the medicine, and when he learned it was Pratt, the look in his eyes when he looked at Wen Li changed.
Said, "It seems that your boyfriend is very thoughtful. You must cherish such a good person."
What can Wen Li say?
She couldn't say anything, so she just ignored it and changed the subject.
In Wen Yongjie's impression, she and Huo Yuanchen have always had a good relationship.
Wen Li opened the car door, let his parents get in , and said vaguely , "Huo Yuanchen has been... a little busy recently."
Wen Yongjie didn't ask any more questions.
When she arrived at her uncle's house and distributed the gifts to everyone, she was chatting with her cousin when she received a message from Huo Yuanchen, "Send me the location of your uncle's house."
Wen Li was confused and asked him, "Why are you coming to my uncle's house?"
Huo Yuanchen said, "Your father asked me to go, why don't you go ask your father?"
Wen Li didn't dare to ask Wen Yongjie. She quietly asked Hu Huifen.
Hu Huifen smiled and said, "It was your dad who sent a message to Yuanchen, asking him to come. Did you and Yuanchen have an argument and are in a cold war, so you didn't notify him to come and celebrate your grandmother's birthday? Your dad is an experienced person, and he guessed it when you said that. He likes Yuanchen very much, and he is trying to bring you two together."
Wen Li sighed silently.
She couldn't stop Huo Yuanchen from coming, so she had to send the address of her uncle's house and reminded him, "The birthday party will start on time at 12 noon tomorrow. Don't come too late. It's best to come early. There are other relatives coming tomorrow, and the house will be very lively."
The other side said, "I know."
Wen Li didn't say anything more. Grandma's health had worsened this year, and as winter was approaching, her children were all worried that she wouldn't survive the winter.
My uncle wanted to celebrate his 90th birthday with great fanfare. He sent invitations to many relatives several days in advance. Some of them came from far away and he had to pay for their food and lodging.
So even though the birthday party hasn't arrived yet, my uncle's family is already very busy.
Hu Huifen felt embarrassed to let only her uncle's family contribute money and labor, so she went to help her aunt as soon as she arrived. Wen Li felt sorry for her mother, so she also went to help, and was so busy the whole day that she didn't even have time to look at her phone.
It was only while having dinner that she saw the message Zhou Ying sent her in the afternoon asking her if she had returned to her hometown.
Wen Li told her that her grandmother was going to celebrate her birthday.
Zhou Ying immediately transferred her a thousand yuan and asked her to buy a gift for Grandma Wen. She also complained to her, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Wen Li explained embarrassedly, "It's a family dinner. The people who came are all relatives. No one else was invited."
Zhou Ying understood what she meant. Grandma Wen lived with her uncle's family, and her uncle only planned to notify the Wen family's relatives. As a junior, it was not appropriate for Wen Li to take the initiative to ask his friends to go along.
But Zhou Ying insisted that Wen Li take the money and buy a birthday gift for Grandma Wen. Wen Li had been in frequent exchanges of gifts with her, so he accepted the money without hesitation and said, "I'll have dinner with you when I get back to Hai City."
Zhou Ying took the opportunity to ask her, "Have you reconciled with Professor Huo?"
Wen Li immediately guessed that it was Yu Jingchen who said that, and joked, "Do you like the scarf that Professor Yu gave you? Professor Yu is such a considerate person. He even thought of buying you a gift when he was on a business trip."
Zhou Ying sent her an expression to shut her up, and then said, "I'm talking to you about serious matters, don't bring me into this. I just want to remind you to think it over. Professor Huo won't just give up on An Wen because of you."
Wen Li replied, "I want to try."
When Zhou Ying saw the message, she felt helpless. She hesitated for a moment, but still sent a screenshot to Wen Li.
"See for yourself. Professor Huo, who you wanted to try, is enjoying delicious food and drinks at An Wen's house right now."
She posted a screenshot of An Wen's Moments. One of the photos was of the luxury items that An Wen had posted before. Now they were in a different place and were lying quietly on the coffee table in the An family's living room. The men's leather shoes in the lower right corner of the picture looked familiar. Wen Li remembered that Huo Yuanchen had a pair, and they were the same size.
The other photos were of food, similar in type to the New Year's Eve dinner that was posted during the Chinese New Year, and probably made by An Wen's mother. The last photo was of a bottle of vintage red wine, and three red wine glasses that were already close together.
The caption is quite intriguing , saying , "In this season of many diseases and disasters, I am fortunate that there are so many people in the world who care about me. I am especially grateful to the person who came all the way to send me back to eat my mother's hospital meal. I am so moved."
Wen Li was silent for a while, then asked Zhou Ying, "Is An Wen sick?"
Zhou Ying said, "It seems so. She called in sick for English class again this week, but I don't know if it was really a sick leave. I heard from Yu Jingchen that Professor Huo also called in yesterday afternoon. I guess he made a special trip to send An Wen back to her hometown to eat a sick meal."
Wen Li said nothing more.
Although An Wen likes to show off, the prerequisite is that she has the capital to show off.
After dinner, she and Winnie went out for a walk. Halfway through, Winnie's boyfriend came. The two of them held hands and looked very affectionate, and they could only walk a few steps for a long time.
Wen Li didn't want to be a light bulb anymore, so he said he was tired and went back first.
She was indeed tired, her body felt sore and her throat was a little itchy. She was afraid that it was a sign of a cold, so on the way back, she went to the pharmacy and bought a box of cold medicine.
As a result, by the evening, I really had cold symptoms.
For some unknown reason, she sent a message to Huo Yuanchen, saying, "Professor Huo, I think I have a cold."
After posting it, I felt it was quite hypocritical. But I didn’t want to withdraw it.
After more than half an hour, Huo Yuanchen replied to her, "Drink more hot water."
Wen Li's heart suddenly turned cold. She asked, "Professor Huo, do you have anything else to say to me besides this?"
Huo Yuanchen said, "The cold virus is a self-limiting virus. All the cold medicines on the market only relieve cold symptoms and cannot cure colds. Drinking more hot water can indeed help you recover soon."
Wen Li read the message for several minutes before typing it to him word by word.
"Why don't you let An Wen drink more hot water? Is the An family's hospital meal delicious?"
After she sent this message, she turned off her phone and went to sleep.
She didn't want to know what Huo Yuanchen would say to her.
