Chapter 121 - Grandma

Song Ning was so busy as soon as she arrived at the hospital that she did not have time for anything else. An Jiahui and her other classmates were busy with their respective duties as well.

When Jiang Jin and Sister Yu arrived at the office, Song Ning was so engrossed in her work that she did not notice their arrival at all.

Professor Li said politely, "Why did the Old Madam come today?'

"Grandma?" Song Ning raised her head, startled. "Why are you here? We'll do the check-up at home in the afternoon…"

Jiang Jin smiled. "I'm always recovered; how can I trouble Professor Li to run back and forth all the time? Doctors are so busy after all.. Moreover, I have Yu to accompany me…"

Song Ning quickly rose to her feet, intending to support Jiang Jin.

Jiang Jin raised her hand to stop Song Ning before she feigned anger and said, "Why are you like this? I'm a patient now, not your Grandma. Why are you standing up? Hurry up and return to your work…"

Song Ning sat down, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Li Sen was very appreciative of Jiang Jin's gesture. "Old Madam, you're too considerate…"

Jiang Jin laughed heartily. "Don't praise me. Otherwise, it'll go to my head."

After Jiang Jin was done with her check-up, Song Ning insisted on sending Jiang Jin back. Professor Li allowed her to leave and let Jiahui take over her workload.

Jiang Jin patted Song Ning's hand and said, "Ningning, you look really good when you're working seriously…"

Song Ning smiled in response.

Yu chimed in, "Old Madam really likes her granddaughter-in-law."

"Of course. She's family. Otherwise, who should I like?"

At this moment…

"Song Ning!"

Song Ning turned around and saw Old Madam Fu and Fu Le walking toward her. Her smile disappeared immediately. She removed her hands from Jiang Jin's arm and placed them in her pockets and said with a hint of alienation, "Old Madam Fu."

When Old Madam Fu arrived in front of Song Ning, she reached out, wanting to hold Song Ning's hand. She said affectionately, "What a coincidence! I ran into you as soon as I arrived at the hospital."

After Li Sen refused Old Madam Fu's request previously, she was discharged the next day. At that time, Song Ning had felt incredibly relieved; Old Madam would no longer pester her under the guise of not feeling well. She did not expect to run into them today; she could not help but wonder if the Fu family was going to start pestering her again.

Song Ning frowned slightly and pushed Old Madam Fu's hand away. She glanced at Fu Le, hoping he would bring his grandmother away.

Alas, Fu Le looked as though he had no intention of intervening.

Despite feeling annoyed, Song Ning asked perfunctorily, "Does Old Madam Fu feel unwell? Let me help you with the registration."

Old Madam Fu stubbornly held onto Song Ning's hand and said, "Ningning, Grandma came to look for you. It's rare that you're not easy; why don't you come home and have a meal with me?"

At this moment, Sister Yu could no longer endure this so she reached out to stop Old Madam Fu from grabbing Song Ning's hand again. "Old Madam Fu, what are you doing? This child has already refused you so you should stop pestering her."

Old Madam Fu's expression darkened immediately. However, she quickly regained her senses and forced a smile on her face as she said, "Sister, you may not know this, but this child is my granddaughter-in-law. There's a misunderstanding between her and my grandson so I brought my grandson here to mediate. Old people like us have a lot of worries, but as long as the younger generation lives well, we'll be happy, right? No matters as long as they're happy…"

Song Ning was exasperated upon hearing these words. 'This again? They're not done?'

Sister Yu could not take it anymore. She reached out her hand to stop old madam Fu from reaching out again. "Aiya, I say, old madam, what are you doing? The little girl has already rejected you, so you should stop pestering her."

Song Ning took a deep breath and was about to speak when Jiang Jin took two steps forward, shielding Song Ning. Then, she smiled and said, "Elder sister, I think you've mistaken this child for someone else. She's my granddaughter-in-law, not yours. You can't just go around and randomly address her as your granddaughter-in-law. It won't be good if it causes misunderstandings."

Old Madam Fu was taken aback/ She sized up the old lady in front of her. Although the person in front of her was dressed in simple clothes, her bearing was extraordinary and noble. Nevertheless, she had never been one to be easily intimidated. She raised her chin slightly and said, "What did you say?"

"I said, this child is my granddaughter-in-law, and you've mistaken her for someone else," Jiang Jin said.

Old Madam Fu said disdainfully, "Oh, so you're the family member of that kid who faked a marriage with Song Ning? Let me tell you, Song Ning is my granddaughter-in-law. Her marriage to my grandson was arranged by their respective mothers. This is the last wish of both their mothers." Then, she turned to Song Ning and asked, "How can we forsake the wishes of those who have passed? Don't you agree, Song Ning?"

Old Madam Fu's voice grew louder and louder as she spoke, attracting the attention of the patients and their families in the surroundings. She could not help but feel smug. She knew Song Ning hated being cornered and causing a commotion the most so she intentionally drew everyone's attention to pressure Song Ning. As for the old woman in front of her, she did not care about her at all.
