CHAPTER 611: CHAPTER 590: AMBIGUITY

The next day was Sunday.

Jiang Xiaoxiao woke up late.

Song Moting saw how peacefully she was sleeping and couldn’t bring himself to wake her.

Recently, due to Grandma’s sudden change, both of them had been in a bad mood.

Especially yesterday, when he heard his wife tell him that Grandma actually suggested resigning from the position of hospital director.

Wasn’t this clearly a plan to ruin the hospital completely?

Their threat involved asking Fang Xiaohui and Song Mohuan to work at the hospital, even appointing Song Mohuan as the deputy director, which was almost like handing the hospital over to Fang Xiaohui and her husband.

He didn’t understand what Grandma was thinking.

The hospital was Jiang Xiaoxiao’s hard work.

How much had Jiang Xiaoxiao devoted to preparing this hospital?

The two of them had almost exhausted their resources.

So many personal connections were for this hospital.

Finally, the hospital was ready to open.

Grandma’s change in attitude really caught him off guard.

This was going to destroy Jiang Xiaoxiao and the hospital.

Song Moting felt a chill in his heart; he had been loved for decades, and suddenly, Grandma just stopped liking him.

Song Moting held a lot of resentment in his heart.

Not liking him was one thing, but not liking his wife or son too, it truly felt oppressive and painful.

But he was already an adult, not a child who could rush to Grandma and ask her why she didn’t like him.

Pointing at Grandma to ask such a question would probably make even him feel ridiculous.

In the adult world, asking why someone doesn’t like you is too laughable.

And it makes people feel sad.

Now that Song Moting knew what Grandma had done, he just wanted to have a calm talk with her.

Maybe there was still a chance for a turnaround.

After all, Jiang Xiaoxiao’s hospital was not a trivial matter.

Their stubbornness and conflict couldn’t solve any problems.

So, Song Moting decided to go back by himself.

Just as Song Moting left,

Jiang Xiaoxiao woke up.

Their little Tang Yuan had already run in, trying hard to pull himself up onto the bed with the quilt.

Mumbling to himself.

"Mommy, Mommy, Tang Yuan wants to get up, Tang Yuan is sleepy."

Pretending to rub his eyes with little chubby hands.

He really looked like he was sleepy.

Jiang Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but laugh.

She picked him up and held him close, giving him a big kiss.

"Little Tang Yuan, are you trying to sleep?"

The soft, warm little guy nestled in her arms, no longer struggling.

He giggled, playing with Jiang Xiaoxiao’s hair, smiling like a little mouse that found some oil.

"Mommy, I don’t want to, Great Grandpa and Great Grandma are here, Great Grandpa always pokes me with his beard, I snuck out."

Only then did Jiang Xiaoxiao notice! Tang Yuan’s mother was not following him.

"You sneaked over here alone, did you tell Grandma and Grandpa?"

Tang Yuan shook his head, knowing he did something wrong.

He was so scared, Mommy looked like she was about to get angry.

Just like when Great Grandma got angry the other day.

The little guy shrank under the quilt, curling into a ball.

"No!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao was both annoyed and amused.

She gave him a playful smack on the forehead.

Tang Yuan held his forehead with a bitter face, "Mommy is bad!"

"Xiao Xiao, Xiao Xiao, did Tang Yuan come to you?"

Fan Xiuying rushed into the room.

Seeing Tang Yuan curled up into a ball under the quilt, grinning at her.

She was both angry and helpless.

She gave him a playful pat.

"You little rascal, you almost scared Grandma to death. Do you know you also scared Mr. Wu and Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Wu is wiping her tears thinking you got lost."

Though the pat looked fierce, it was actually quite gentle.

Jiang Xiaoxiao picked up Tang Yuan, "Look at what you did, scaring Grandma and Grandpa, and Great Grandpa and Great Grandma too. Do you know there are kidnappers out there? If they took you away, you would never see Mommy and Daddy or Grandma and Grandpa again."

Tang Yuan didn’t quite understand and shook his head, "What’s a kidnapper?"

Fan Xiuying and Jiang Xiaoxiao both laughed; of course, a child this young wouldn’t understand what a kidnapper is.

"What should I say to you?"

Mr. Wu and Mrs. Wu also followed, mainly because the child was missing and they were scared.

In recent years, there had been frequent reports in newspapers about lost children, and the elderly couple was terrified.

If the child were really lost, how could they face Jiang Xiaoxiao?

As soon as they walked in and saw the scene.

Mr. Wu sighed in relief and quickly went outside the room.

Jiang Xiaoxiao hadn’t gotten up yet, wearing sleepwear, and he was an outsider after all.

It wouldn’t be right to go in like this.

Mrs. Wu went in, holding Tang Yuan and scolding him.

"You little fellow, you’re too daring. Xiao Xiao, you really need to keep an eye on him, his bravery is a bit too big. It’s quite easy for something to happen. Today he ran here, imagine if he ran outside and was taken by someone, what could you do then?"

There was worry and concern.

Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled, stroking Tang Yuan’s hair.

Tang Yuan leaned against his mother’s arms, curiously looking around at everyone in the room.

Why were they all saying he could be taken by someone?

"Grandma Wu, why are you here? This little one really makes everyone worry. We’ll teach him gradually."

There was no way around it, the child was just too young, only two years old, what could he understand?

Even if they constantly taught him about kidnappers, he wouldn’t understand like he asked just now.

The road of education is indeed long.

"Why do you look so worn out these days? Don’t mind Old Mrs. Song so much, she’s just like a child sometimes, acting on a whim. She even loses her temper with me, it’ll pass in a couple of days."

Mrs. Wu advised.

Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled; even though she had a lot of grievances, there was no reason to complain to Mrs. Wu.

Even if she knew she was part of the Wu family, she still couldn’t treat Mrs. Wu like her own grandmother.

Some things she could say to Fan Xiuying but not to Mrs. Wu.

This was the difference between close and distant relationships.

"It’s nothing! It’s my grandma, I understand."

Fan Xiuying picked up the child and stood up, "Alright then, I’ll take Tang Yuan back to feed him, you should get up, it’s so late already. Get up and go eat."

She had made breakfast herself, the son-in-law had left already.

The daughter was still sleeping in, caught by Mrs. Wu.

Fan Xiuying felt a bit embarrassed herself.

Fan Xiuying intended to leave with Mrs. Wu, but once outside the yard, Mrs. Wu was nowhere to be seen.

Feeling puzzled.

Mrs. Wu and her daughter seemed too familiar somehow, even though she hadn’t gotten up yet, shouldn’t she keep some distance?

What exactly was going on here, this attitude seemed a bit too close.
