Chapter 795: When Mars Hits Earth
"Discharged?"
Upon hearing these words, Xu Ning’an’s eyes flickered. "Is it really okay now?"
Lin Tian grinned and said, "I’m your attending physician. If I say it’s okay, then it’s definitely okay. However, there’s still a rehabilitation process to follow. Just go to a place with a good environment for recuperation."
Xu Ning’an raised his head, unsure of what he was thinking, and after a while, he said, "Alright, I’ll follow your arrangements."
"Then pack up your stuff, and I’ll handle the discharge procedures, and we can leave immediately."
"Okay!"
...
The discharge procedures were done quickly, and Lin Tian also bought a few bottles of nutritional supplements. These were for Mei Ruyan; she was quite weak now, and relying solely on Spiritual Qi wasn’t enough.
When Lin Tian returned to Xu Ning’an’s ward, he didn’t knock but pushed the door open directly.
He happened to see Xu Ning’an wearing a black bra, changing clothes. One must admit, the figure was impeccable!
If he hadn’t been teased by those fox spirits from the Xu Family these past few days, he might have done something inappropriate.
"Sorry, sorry, carry on." Lin Tian said and fled the room in a hurry.
"Silly, I’m not completely naked, what’s there to run from?" Although she said this, her heart rate did increase, feeling a bit awkward.
After quite a while, Xu Ning’an’s voice came from inside, "Alright, you can come in now."
Lin Tian rubbed his nose and then walked in again. Upon seeing Xu Ning’an once more, he couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
"What’s so funny?" Xu Ning’an pouted.
"Well, you look like a chubby penguin right now." Lin Tian couldn’t help but laugh again after saying this.
Xu Ning’an was fully geared from head to toe, the most noticeable being the red Santa hat and the white down jacket, looking indeed like a cute chubby penguin.
"You’re annoying!"
"Alright, let’s go. Since walking is inconvenient for you now, how about I carry you?"
"No need, I can manage with a crutch."
Lin Tian decisively shoved the nutritional supplements into Xu Ning’an’s hands and squatted in front of him.
"Climb on!"
This scene brought a smile to Xu Ning’an’s face, and with a "hey," he draped himself over Lin Tian’s back.
Lin Tian supported her legs and stood up, and after a few steps, he thought to himself: Summer is better. Last time carrying her, he could feel those two soft, bouncy things against his back. Now in winter, with thicker clothes, he couldn’t feel anything.
Luckily, Xu Ning’an didn’t know what this guy was thinking, otherwise, she would definitely bite him on the neck.
"Am I heavy?" Xu Ning’an asked.
"Can a chubby penguin not be heavy?"
"Hmph!"
...
Compared to before, Xu Ning’an’s mood was evidently much better, perhaps because he had confided in Lin Tian.
Sometimes, pondering over something alone for too long isn’t as effective as finding someone to talk to, cracking a couple of jokes, and suddenly finding your mood much brighter.
In the car, Lin Tian recounted his current situation to her, including an honest explanation of having Liou Qingcheng and Mei Ruyan back at the villa.
Hearing that she was going to stay at Lin Tian’s place for a while, Xu Ning’an couldn’t help but feel a surge of unexplainable joy.
But upon hearing there were two other girls, and one of them was Lin Tian’s official girlfriend, she felt a bit disheartened. She kept wondering how she would get along with them.
When Lin Tian drove the car back into the villa’s courtyard, he saw a red Audi parked there. His brows furrowed as he used his clairvoyance and discovered that the person sitting in the car was his future mother-in-law, Yan Xinrou.
Thinking of her peculiar nature, Lin Tian thought to himself: I’m doomed!
This situation is like Mars crashing into Earth, isn’t it?
If she saw him bringing Xu Ning’an back, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Ring ring ring...
At this moment, Lin Tian’s phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Yan Xinrou.
Lin Tian chuckled bitterly; what’s meant to come will come!
Answering the call, Lin Tian cautiously said, "Hello, Mom."
"Lin Tian, you brat, think you’re tough now? Not even informing me about Qingcheng’s discharge? And such good news about her recovery wasn’t shared with me first?"
Hearing Yan Xinrou’s displeased tone, Lin Tian felt he was nearing his death sentence.
"Didn’t I know you were working and didn’t want to disturb you? I’ve already informed Dad..."
"What’s the point of telling him? I ask you, in our family, who holds the highest status?"
"That would, of course, be you!" Lin Tian replied without hesitation, showcasing his will to survive.
"Good to know, so next time something important happens, you know who to inform first, right?" Yan Xinrou asked, somewhat smug.
"That would be you, of course!"
Lin Tian couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly. Aren’t you a bit old to be acting like a child?
Of course, Lin Tian only dared to think this in his head and would never say it out loud.
Yan Xinrou was satisfied with Lin Tian’s answer and didn’t press further but instead asked, "Where are you now? I’m at your villa’s gate, and it’s cold. Hurry and open the gate for me."
"Mom, look at the side mirror. My car is parked right behind yours."
Yan Xinrou glanced at the mirror, and sure enough, saw an SUV parked right behind her car. She ended the call, wrapped her scarf tightly, and got out of the car.
"Is that your girlfriend’s mom? It seems there’s no escaping this fate for you two; you haven’t even married yet, and you’re already calling her Mom," Xu Ning’an said from the passenger seat, with a detectable hint of jealousy.
What else could she do? Xu Ning’an could only regret not meeting Lin Tian sooner; if she had, with her charm, how could this guy not obediently follow her?
"Haha, yeah. Let’s get out of the car; we shouldn’t keep the elder waiting."
"Alright."
Yan Xinrou walked over to Lin Tian, and upon seeing him, a knowing smile appeared on her face.
But upon noticing another beautiful face in the car, the smile froze.
In front of Yan Xinrou, Xu Ning’an dared not let Lin Tian assist her; even with her injured leg, she quickly grabbed her crutch and got out of the car.
"Mom."
"Hello, Auntie."
The two spoke in unison, quite in sync. Lin Tian suddenly felt awkward; this scene felt as if he were introducing his girlfriend to his parents.
Despite having seen a lot, Yan Xinrou was momentarily stunned but quickly composed herself.
Completely ignoring Lin Tian, she squinted and smiled at Xu Ning’an, "If I remember correctly, this should be Mr. Xu?"
