Chapter 505 - 505: Getting engaged?
As soon as Li Muyao went downstairs, she saw Huo Jiling sitting with his sister-in-law, Jiang Lilan, and a doctor. They were talking about Old Madam Huo’s illness.
Huo Jiling saw Li Yao and immediately went forward to hold her hand. He sat down opposite Jiang Lilan.”Mooncake, did you sleep well? If you didn’t come down, I was going to go upstairs and call you down for lunch.
By the way, this is Doctor Chu. We were discussing Grandma’s condition just now.”
“Yaoyao, sit here. I’ll tell you about Grandma’s condition.” Jiang Lilan said.” Ten minutes later, Li Muyao figured out that Old Madam Huo had accidentally
fallen on her ankle before, but she had been hiding it from everyone. Not long ago, Old Madam Huo had fallen again, which worsened her injury.
He needed surgery to piece the broken bones back together bit by bit.
In fact, this kind of surgery could be done in China, but this surgery was especially harmful to the elderly.
That was why Jiang Lilan and Huo Jifeng wanted to take Old Madam Huo overseas for the surgery. They wanted to minimize the trauma that the surgery would bring to Old Madam Huo’s body and also recuperate abroad for a period of time.
“That’s why Yaoyao and Ling don’t have to worry too much about Grandma’s illness. Actually, Grandma was hoping that Yaoyao and Ling would get engaged first. The previous betrothal had already been canceled.
Now that the two of you are on good terms, Grandma wants you to get engaged before going abroad for surgery.
Of course, Yaoyao, this is mainly up to you.
There’s no problem with our Huo family’s side. It’s the same for Ah Ling’s side. Just now, before Doctor Chu came, I asked Ah Ling. Ah Ling said that he would listen to you.”
Li Muyao was a little stunned by Jiang Lilan’s words. Wasn’t she talking about Old Madam Huo’s illness just now?
Why did it suddenly turn to her and Huo Jiling’s engagement?
An engagement?
No, it was too early and too fast!
Although Li Muyao knew that her relationship with Huo Jiling was for marriage, engagement…Forget it.
After the engagement, Li Muyao felt that she could skip the engagement procedure. When Li Muyao was ready to marry Huo Jiling, she could ask him to propose to her.
“As for the engagement, I think it’s better to wait until Grandma Huo is healthy and comes back from recuperating abroad. Right now, Ling and I don’t understand each other well enough. I still want to slowly get along for a while more.
By the way, is it convenient for Grandma Huo now? If it’s possible, I’d like to talk to Grandma Huo alone.”
Anyway, Li Muyao would never get engaged.
Since the doctor also said that it was not a big deal for Old Madam Huo to have surgery, Li Muyao was relieved. When Li Muyao was in Yangcheng, she received a call from Huo Jiling saying that Old Mrs. Huo wasn’t doing well. It really shocked her.
Moreover, after hearing what Jiang Lilan said, Li Muyao had reason to suspect that Old Madam Huo had asked Jiang Lilan, her sister-in-law, to pass the news of Old Madam Huo’s illness and need to go abroad for surgery to Huo Jiling.
“Grandma just drank her medicine and went to sleep. She might be late.
Yaoyao, do you really not want to book Ling earlier?”Jiang Lilan could tell that Li Muyao didn’t have much feelings for her brother-in-law the last time, but this time, it was obvious that Li Muyao and her brother-in-law’s relationship had improved a lot..
