Chapter 94

Granny Song video called again. Seeing from the other side that Song Shuling, who answered, really didn\'t seem to have big issues, she finally calmed down. But then she asked, "Which hospital is this? Ah Xing, why don\'t you take Shuling to the private hospital in Nanshan for another look?"

The private hospital in Nanshan was a famously rich hospital in the industry. Their medical resources and service were world class. It was said that staying one night there cost 20,000 RMB. Song Grandpa and Granny Song went there every year for health checks and really trusted the doctors there.

Zhong Ruanxing still didn\'t have the awareness of being rich. When it came to hospitals, she only wanted to go to the public ones. Now that Granny Song brought it up, she remembered that rich people loved going to private hospitals. She said, "Nanshan is too far. Shuling also had scans taken. She\'s fine. Don\'t worry, Granny."

"I\'m really okay, Granny. I\'ll come see you after I\'m discharged tomorrow."

"What do you mean \'see what\'? Your brother said you need bed rest to recuperate. Granny will come see you tomorrow!"

After chatting for a bit and hearing from Song Shuling about Bai Yinyue\'s help today, she asked Zhong Ruanxing, "Is it the young miss from the Bai family?"

Zhong Ruanxing said, "Yes."

Granny Song said, "She helped so much. Even if you don\'t like the girl, you still need to be courteous. After Shuling recovers, take her to treat the Bai girl to a meal and properly thank her."

Zhong Ruanxing nodded, "I understand, Granny."

After hanging up the video chat, Zhong Ruanxing continued peeling fruit. Song Shuling secretly watched her from the side. Finally, as if unable to hold it in any longer, she finally spoke up, "Brother, what did Granny mean by that? Why did she say you don\'t like Sister Bai?"

She didn\'t even know that her brother and the Bai heiress were matched. It showed how much she had neglected this brother before.

Zhong Ruanxing deliberately teased her, "Kids shouldn\'t pry into adult matters."

Song Shuling pouted, "I\'m 22 already." She moved closer and actually guessed what Granny Song meant, "Did Grandma and Grandpa match you with Sister Bai? But you don\'t like Sister Bai?"

Zhong Ruanxing poked her forehead.

Song Shuling was much closer to her now. In the past, she definitely wouldn\'t have been interested in her brother\'s love life. "Brother, why don\'t you like Sister Bai? What kind of girl do you like?"

What kind of girl did Song Jingxing like?

Zhong Ruanxing was stumped by the question. She seemed to have never thought about what kind of girl Song Jingxing would like in the future.

Didn\'t he say that if he couldn\'t switch back, he would choose to marry her? But that didn\'t seem to be because he liked her, but because he had no other choice.

A person as calm and composed as him, if it came down to compatibility, he would probably let his feelings take a backseat.

Seeing her silent, Song Shuling suddenly had a flash of inspiration. A beautiful, bright face surfaced in her mind. "Could it be you like Sister Youyou? Sister Youyou is truly gorgeous, the most beautiful person I\'ve seen. Brother would match well with her if he liked her."

There was another sentence she didn\'t say - she looked too cold and Song Shuling worried they wouldn\'t get along well as sisters-in-law.

But as long as her brother liked her, nothing else mattered!

Zhong Ruanxing pushed her prying head back, "Don\'t worry about your brother\'s matters. You should think about yourself - what do you think about Ji Xiao?"

Song Shuling immediately blushed, "What? We\'re just colleagues."

Zhong Ruanxing laughed. "He chased you all the way to the hospital. Just colleagues?" She straightened her expression. "If you also have feelings for him, you can get to know him first and see if your personalities and values match. If you really don\'t have any intentions, make it clear with him early on. Don\'t drag it out, understand?"

Song Shuling had a conflicted expression. After a while, she said, "Actually, I don\'t know either. He treats me especially well and cares a lot about me. If it was the past, I would definitely have liked him. But now...now that I have a brother, I feel like his care for me isn\'t that special anymore."

She had been so starved of affection in the past that any care she received was like a lifeline she desperately clung to, unable to extricate herself.

But now she truly had love, so she wouldn\'t hand over her feelings just because of simple "niceness" anymore.

Being "nice" had never been a criteria for choosing a partner, but the basic foundation. On top of that foundation, the other person\'s family background, personality, values, looks, etc. were what really needed consideration. If they couldn\'t even be nice, they shouldn\'t even be a candidate.

If one only chose to be with someone because they were "nice to me", that was disrespecting oneself.

Fortunately Song Shuling finally understood this rationale now. Zhong Ruanxing approvingly stroked her head, "No rush. You work together so you can slowly understand your feelings."

As they were talking, Bai Yinyue and Ji Xiao returned with food for the siblings.

Zhong Ruanxing remembered Granny Song\'s words. When sending Bai Yinyue off, she asked, "Thank you for your help today, Miss Bai. After Shuling recovers, we\'d like to treat you to a meal as thanks. Do you have time?"

Bai Yinyue looked at her very brightly, "Sure, I\'m free anytime!"

Looking at the emotions flowing in those eyes, Zhong Ruanxing didn\'t know whether to laugh or cry.

If it was as Song Jingxing said, these were flowers she had attracted. Then who exactly was Miss Bai attracted to - her soul or Song Jingxing\'s exterior? What if she learned the truth one day, wouldn\'t she have a breakdown?

Thinking this, Zhong Ruanxing felt she was mistreating the girl.

Because of her injury, Noah\'s Ark Theme Park gave Song Shuling 5 days of sick leave. Zhong Ruanxing stayed overnight with her at the hospital. The next day, the doctor took Song Shuling for more checks. Confirming no issues, Zhong Ruanxing handled her discharge.

Considering she still needed rest for the next few days, she simply took Song Shuling to Song Jingxing\'s home for convenience of care.

In the afternoon, Granny Song came over, bringing two maids from the old house. The two carried bags of food. But when they opened the fridge, they were stunned.

The third young master\'s fridge wasn\'t empty like the old madam said at all. It was fully stocked with produce, meat, fruit, drinks... There was no space for what they brought!

Granny Song also hadn\'t been here for a while. After touring the place inside and out, she came back very satisfied and told Zhong Ruanxing, "The house looks much more comfortable now than before. It has a lived in feel now."

Zhong Ruanxing thought to herself, of course! She had spent no small amount of effort redecorating this luxury mansion!
