Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 2480: Chapter 2416: I Was Wrong Before

Now facing it, he had nothing to say.

Then he noticed that the tall man who once raised his hand to hit him now looked a bit shorter, standing in front of him, that man seemed completely less imposing than him.

Meng Xinian tightened his lips.

Meng Chaojun took the thermos, looked at him, moved his lips, and asked, ”Have you eaten yet?”

This statement was clearly directed at Meng Xinian, wanting to talk to him, but Meng Xinian’s lips were tightly pursed, his expression somewhat indifferent, simply not speaking.

Chiang Xiao had to say, ”We ate at home before coming.”

”Good, good. It was Little who cooked, right?”

”When did you start calling her by her nickname?” Meng Xinian spoke lightly.

Meng Chaojun froze, then felt a bit awkward.

”If you don’t like it, I’ll...”

Didn’t he hear that both his father and Meng Xinian called Chiang Xiao this way? So he felt that calling her the same way would show closeness, like family.

Moreover, calling her this way also showed he fully accepted her, right?

But he didn’t expect Meng Xinian would be displeased.

Chiang Xiao gently bumped Meng Xinian with her elbow, and said to Meng Chaojun, ”It’s no big deal, just call me that, it’s just a name.”

”Xinian, is that okay?” Meng Chaojun looked at Meng Xinian.

Meng Xinian turned away, walked to the window, and observed outside.

Meng Chaojun sighed lightly and told Chiang Xiao, ”You guys sit, sit for a while, your grandfather should be here soon.”

He carried the thermos, sat on the bed, and started eating porridge, not daring to try chatting with Meng Xinian again.

Initially, he wanted to eat because the porridge was brought by Chiang Xiao, but once he started, he realized the porridge was very fragrant. It had a sweet taste that enhanced the rice’s fresh aroma.

Adding a bit of side dishes, it was delicious beyond words.

Unknowingly, he finished the porridge completely, still feeling unsatisfied.

After a while, Old Meng also arrived. Like Meng Chaojun, he seemed very happy to see Meng Xinian present, and liked Chiang Xiao more the more he looked at her.

He was wrong before, really wrong.

He used to think Chiang Xiao was a cold-hearted child, but now he knows, as long as you’re kind to her, she reciprocates a lot.

If not for Chiang Xiao, there’s a chance Meng Xinian wouldn’t step into the hospital now, only coming if Meng Chaojun was genuinely critically ill.

With Chiang Xiao, there’s a bit of hope between the father and son.

They all went to the meeting room to listen to the doctor’s report on the new treatment plan.

Chiang Xiao listened to the professional terms, seeming to understand but not quite, only needing to know the gist, then she’d call Chen Baoshen to check if any medicine clashed with ginseng or Lingzhi and the like.

Because what she mainly provided Meng Chaojun was Spiritual Spring Water, along with ginseng and Lingzhi Dendrobium. If it conflicted with the hospital’s treatment, she would have to stop the hospital’s methods.

Meng Xinian remained silent for a while after listening, then asked, ”With this plan, how high is the possibility of recovery?”

Several doctors glanced at each other, somewhat unsure how to respond.

Finally, Doctor Xu coughed and said, ”Officer Meng, with this disease, the hospital also cannot guarantee the final result, but at least the condition should be controllable within half a year.”

This means they can only guarantee temporary control.

Whether it worsens after half a year, or even if it might end just like that, nobody knows.
