Mommy, the wealthy daddy has come to propose again.

Zhou Xu is not that old, two years younger than Lan Qichen, but due to overwork, his complexion is not good and he looks tired.

Lan Qichen approached, patted his shoulder heavily, and said with concern: "You are just too loving and selfless. I know that a doctor should be like this. You do a good job and are very ethical, but remember to love yourself. Don't be too tired and go back to your old house to spend time with dad when you have time. He misses you very much."

Lan's mother is deceased, and the old house looks particularly empty without its mistress.

Lan's father's life became more leisurely in his later years. He usually watered the flowers and walked the dog. When he had nothing to do, he would lie on the wicker chair in front of the porch and stare at a place in a daze. The afternoon passed unknowingly.

Zhou Xu nodded and agreed: "Okay, I will remember it."

Lan's father was his great benefactor. After Lan's mother passed away, he naturally knew that he should go back to spend more time with the old man.

In fact, Lan's father is committed to charity and has supported many students to study, many of whom have achieved success in their studies and are shining in their respective fields.

After Lan Qichen sent Zhou Xu out, he returned to the kitchen and concentrated on making dinner.

Bai Ning was absent today due to abdominal pain, and it was Aunt Lan who picked up Lan Shining from school.

When the little guy left school, he looked around but couldn't find his mother. He felt a little disappointed and pouted all the way to show his dissatisfaction.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

Shining smelled a strong sweet smell as soon as he entered the door. He followed the search and caught Lan Qichen in the kitchen with his back to cooking.

"Dad, what delicious food are you making?"

The little guy stretched his neck and took a deep breath.

Lan Qichen said warmly: "I'll make this dry abalone porridge for your mommy. By the way, kid, go to the bedroom and see if your mommy is awake. Pour her a cup of hot water to drink to warm her stomach."

Upon hearing this, Shining asked worriedly: "Dad, is mommy sick?"

"Yes, remember not to make mommy unhappy."

It turns out that mommy didn’t come to pick me up because she was sick. I misunderstood her...

Lan Qichen stirred the seafood porridge in the small pot, covered it with a lid and simmered it over low heat, and then started to stir-fry the vegetables.

Even though the doctor ordered a light diet to facilitate recovery, he was still able to cook many delicious dishes in a variety of ways.

Lan Shining trotted to the bedroom to wake Bai Ning up for dinner. What he saw was his mother pouring water while holding her thin and delicate body.

She wore a nightgown, and the slim fit seemed to be oversize on her body.

The pain may still linger, her lips are as pale as paper, and her spirit is extremely haggard.

"Mommy, let me get you some water!"

Shi Ning felt distressed. He took the cup from Bai Ning's hand and stood on tiptoes to pour her water.

"Mommy, are you sick?"

The little guy stretched out his hand and put the back of his hand on her forehead to take her temperature. However, she didn't actually have a fever, and she still felt a little cold.

Bai Ning tugged at his lips and tried his best to force out an unattractive smile.

"Little fool, mommy just has a bad stomach and is a little uncomfortable."

She sipped the warm water in the cup and tasted the slightest hint of sweetness.

Shining's small body helped Bai Ning to the restaurant for dinner. She had no appetite, so she drank less than half a bowl of porridge, took medicine an hour later and went to bed early.

That night, Lin Jinzhi made new progress in the investigation and reported it to his superiors.

"Mr. Lan, as far as I know, the second female lead in the crew has a good background. She is Xiang Nankui's daughter, Xiang Yimo."

Xiang Nankui is a tycoon in the real estate business and has little cooperation with the Lan family, but Lan Qichen has heard of this name.

"Go on."

Lin Jinzhi paused, as if hesitating whether to tell the truth.

Qian Qian struggled for a few seconds and finally decided not to hide it anymore.

"The relationship between Miss Xiang and Madam is not very good, because the male lead in the crew is played by the crown prince of the Gu family, Gu Youzhi."

Gu Youzhi and Lan Qichen met once during the day, and the first impression left on him by that little girl was that of a pretty boy, just in appearance.
