Chapter 171: 164, Mom supports you! Hurry up and catch them! (Requesting monthly ticket)
Princess room.
Xixi got her wish and shared a bed with her aunt.
Actually, the little girl really enjoyed sleeping with her aunt. She loved to snuggle into her aunt's arms and place her little hand on her aunt's breasts, which were soft and bouncy and very comfortable.
"Auntie's are a bit bigger."
Xixi murmured softly. She had occasionally slept with Mrs. Qiqi recently and assumed the same position, so she felt entitled to make comments on the matter.
But Mrs. Qiqi was strange, she wouldn't allow her to touch just one—they had to be handled together.
So she needed to use both her little hands at the same time, which was somewhat exhausting.
Oh, she hadn't told daddy this secret yet; she must tell him tomorrow. In case daddy didn't know the rule, Mrs. Qiqi could get upset...
The little girl didn't know that her Mrs. Qiqi actually had a bit of OCD about symmetry; for instance, she always made two little pigtails for Xixi, and the slippers placed in the shoe cabinet at home were also arranged in pairs neatly, as were the vases and figurines in the display cabinet, all symmetrically placed in twos.
"Auntie, I have a secret to tell you."
"Daddy has a girlfriend..."
Xixi suddenly thought of Aunt Xinyi and couldn't help but share this secret with her aunt.
"A girlfriend??"
Li Manni, who was already feeling a bit sleepy, suddenly became alert upon hearing these three words.
She knew that Brother-in-law Yang Hao had many women around him, and quite a few of them were beautiful. There were even rumors in the company suggesting that the president's office was actually Brother-in-law's harem.
But she hadn't heard of Brother-in-law confirming a relationship with any woman, so Xixi's words were quite a shock to her.
"Yes, that's Aunt Xinyi!"
Xixi nodded seriously.
Li Manni subconsciously frowned, realizing that the Aunt Xinyi mentioned by the little girl must be Secretary Sun from the president's office.
Li Manni had seen Sun Xinyi when she went to the president's office to find her Brother-in-law Yang Hao, and she had felt that this Secretary Sun had a particularly good figure and demeanor.
Li Manni did not know that Sun Xinyi used to be a fitness instructor, and that years of fitness could give one an especially good body ratio, not to mention a vitality that regular office workers could not match.
So, Sun Xinyi gave her a very striking first impression, and even as a woman, she thought Sun Xinyi was really beautiful.
Therefore, if Brother-in-law's girlfriend was Sun Xinyi, Li Manni wouldn't be surprised, but a sense of disappointment swiftly filled her heart.
Xu Wenqian had always half-jokingly and half-seriously advised her to make a move soon, saying that a man like Brother-in-law was the so-called diamond bachelor.
In the face of absolute wealth, being divorced with a child was not a problem at all.
According to Xu Wenqian, if Brother-in-law Yang Hao announced a public search for a marriage partner, the line of women would stretch from Jiangcheng train station to Paris!
"Auntie, you could be daddy's girlfriend too?"
As Li Manni's thoughts drifted, Xixi's voice suddenly rang in her ears again.
"Ah?"
"Me??"
Li Manni looked at the little girl in her arms, completely confused.
"I wish daddy could have three girlfriends so that I could have three mommies in the future..." Xixi earnestly explained her reasoning.
"Three girlfriends?"
"Three mommies??"
Li Manni felt both amused and helpless but was still curious and asked, "And who would the third mommy be?"
"Mrs. Qiqi, of course!"
Xixi blurted out, then with a serious face, she said, "But don't worry, Auntie, you are my favorite!"
"Uh...?"
Li Manni couldn't help but scratch the little girl's nose with her finger.
Was she trying to comfort herself?
However, knowing Xixi as she did, she believed the words were genuine.
The girl had always been quite clingy with her.
At this moment, Li Manni suddenly regretted not heeding Xu Wenqian's advice.
If she had made the first move, perhaps there wouldn't have been any chance for other women to get involved.
She knew her brother-in-law well; when he had been with her sister, he was very faithful. According to her sister, there had been a manager in her brother-in-law's store who had been with him for many years and seemed to have always harbored a crush on him.
But he deliberately transferred her to another store to manage, reducing their contact.
Such scrupulously honest men were actually quite rare.
Now, if her brother-in-law had indeed changed his views on love, it was mostly likely because the divorce had hit him hard and led to a desire for revenge!
So, the root cause lay with her sister.
It was all her sister's fault for ruining a good and faithful man!!
Meanwhile, Yang Hao, who was currently chatting with "temporary girlfriend" Guan Mengmeng on WeChat, had no idea of his little niece's thoughts.
Otherwise, he would definitely award her a "Best Auntie of Hua Country" certificate.
Such an empathetic and thoughtful niece!
You couldn't find one even if you searched with a lantern!
The next day.
Yang Hao and Li Manni took their father and mother-in-law to Jiangcheng Second Hospital.
With Guan Mengmeng's guidance, he had registered for an appointment with "Doctor Guan" online the night before.
So upon arriving at the hospital, Yang Hao led his in-laws straight to Guan Mengmeng's consulting room.
Today, Doctor Guan was dressed very decently, covered up nicely, but her makeup was still meticulously done, clearly a sign of effort.
"Regarding your appearance, Doctor Guan, I envisioned something else due to the misleading influence of Island Nation films. I thought a young and pretty female doctor like you might wear a short skirt, and then top it off with a pair of white stockings..."
That would really set the scene.
"Yang, I got a slot from my teacher for you. Take this paper with the prescription he wrote and go directly to the registration desk, you'll be able to get an appointment with him," Guan Mengmeng said after a brief exchange of pleasantries, handing Yang Hao a slip of paper.
On it was the name "Xu Yuanhou."
Xu Yuanhou is an internal medicine expert, his registration fee alone costs two hundred, and you'd need to book half a month in advance to secure a slot—otherwise, you'd never get an appointment.
That said, when going to the hospital, don't dismiss young doctors outright; they might not solve your problem, but their ability to pull strings is often very strong, and the person they pull strings for could be an expert you can't even book.
Right now, Guan Mengmeng was demonstrating her impressive ability to pull strings.
Of course, she wouldn't have approached her own teacher if it weren't for Yang Hao's sake.
"Thanks."
Yang Hao said with a smile, nodding his head, then passed the slip of paper to Li Manni, "Manni, go and get the registration done first. I'll have mom see Doctor Guan first."
Even though they had secured an expert's appointment, it wasn't like they could see him right away.
Yang Hao decided to let his "temporary girlfriend" take a look at his mother-in-law first.
Don't underestimate the young doctor; after all, she has also studied medicine diligently for many years.
"Mm, then I'll go register."
Li Manni left the consultation room with the slip of paper in hand, wondering how her brother-in-law still knew such a beautiful female doctor.
In fact, it wasn't just Li Manni who harbored such thoughts; Kang Huizhi and Li Baojun were also surprised to see their son-in-law Yang Hao so familiar with this young and pretty doctor.
At the same time, they felt an even stronger sense of urgency that their son-in-law could be taken away at any moment. Find adventures at m v lem|p-yr
After all, they still had Mrs. Jiang at home!
Whether it was Mrs. Jiang or the Doctor Guan present, their personal qualifications were no less than those of their daughter.
"Auntie, please talk about your symptoms."
Guan Mengmeng gestured for Kang Huizhi to sit in the examination chair, then observed her complexion.
Actually, many times one's complexion can reflect their health state. Guan Mengmeng had also studied traditional Chinese medicine while at school. She wasn't boasting greatness, but she could still identify some issues through complexion and other diagnostic methods like pulse-taking.
"I often feel pain all over, my joints hurt, and I feel weak..."
Kang Huizhi detailed her condition. Her ailment was quite tormenting. If said to be serious, it didn't greatly affect daily life, as the pain was within a tolerable range and it wasn't constant.
The pain might ease after a while, only to recur later on.
Guan Mengmeng didn't rush to a conclusion. After asking in detail about the sickness, she took Kang Huizhi's blood pressure and checked her pulse...
Doctor Guan was quite serious at work, completely different from her off-duty demeanor.
"Do we need to take X-rays or an MRI?"
Seeing Guan Mengmeng remain silent for a long time, Yang Hao asked.
"Auntie, did you get an MRI done back in your hometown?" Guan Mengmeng did not immediately answer, but instead asked Kang Huizhi.
"I did, and the doctor said there was nothing wrong."
"Old Li, show the MRI images to Doctor Guan..."
Kang Huizhi brought her MRI scans with her, which were now in Li Baojun's hands.
He quickly handed them over to Guan Mengmeng.
After receiving the images, Guan Mengmeng carefully examined them on the lightbox, then gently shook her head, "From the images, indeed, there seems to be no issue."
She then looked at Yang Hao, "Yang, there's a condition called fibromyalgia."
"I suspect auntie might have this disease."
"Fibromyalgia??"
Yang Hao looked confused, having never heard of such a disease.
"Doctor Guan, is this disease serious??"
Kang Huizhi, who also had never heard of the disease, asked nervously.
"It's not serious per se, but it's challenging to cure."
"It's a chronic pain syndrome that is difficult to treat. Medication only serves as an aid; the main thing is your own ability to adjust. Maintaining a good mood, a regular diet, exercising more..."
Guan Mengmeng explained to the three of them what fibromyalgia is.
"Mengmeng, what causes this disease?"
Yang Hao asked curiously.
"The cause of this disease is still a mystery to this day; no one can say for sure."
Guan Mengmeng shook her head, then added, "Research suggests it might be related to central nervous system sensitization or immune system disorder. Some experts believe the disease could be caused by excessive stress, inflammations, or prolonged emotional suppression."
"Auntie, have you been feeling particularly bad recently, or have you been under a lot of stress?"
"This..."
Facing Guan Mengmeng's question, Kang Huizhi subconsciously glanced at Yang Hao. She indeed felt very upset recently, particularly because of her daughter's divorce, which had really worked her up.
But she couldn't blame her son-in-law. After all, it was her daughter who made the mistakes and proposed the divorce.
"Yang, later, you should still take auntie to see my teacher."
"Hear what my teacher says, and then have him prescribe medicine to assist in the treatment..."
Guan Mengmeng had probably guessed the cause of Kang Huizhi's illness, as Yang Hao had mentioned the night before that he was bringing his ex-mother-in-law to the hospital. So, her getting worked up and stressed was probably due to her daughter's divorce.
"Okay."
"Thank you so much, Mengmeng."
Yang Hao thanked her courteously, then left the consultation room with his in-laws.
While Guan Mengmeng wasn't busy, she did have other patients and couldn't occupy too much time.
"Yang, wait a moment, I have something else..."
As Yang Hao was about to leave, Guan Mengmeng called out to him.
"Mm, what's up?"
Yang Hao stopped and looked at Guan Mengmeng with curiosity.
Guan Mengmeng looked at Kang Huizhi and Li Baojun with a troubled expression.
"Hao, we'll wait for you outside."
Kang Huizhi was very tactful, and although she wanted to know what the young and beautiful doctor wanted with her son-in-law, she didn't think it was right to insist on staying.
Once the two had left, Guan Mengmeng spoke softly, "Yang, it's like this... my mom wants to invite you over for dinner. She's mentioned it several times, and I really didn't know how else to say it..."
"Scrounging for a meal, huh!"
"That's a good thing, no problem."
Yang Hao nodded smilingly, as it didn't really matter to him; he had already met Guan Mengmeng's parents.
Seeing how readily Yang Hao agreed, Guan Mengmeng was overjoyed, "Then, is this Saturday okay?"
"I have the day off on Saturday."
Outside the consultation room.
Li Manni returned from registering.
She immediately saw her parents but not her brother-in-law Yang Hao.
"Mom, where's my brother-in-law?"
Li Manni asked with confusion.
"He's still inside the consultation room!"
Kang Huizhi glanced at the firmly closed door of the consultation room and then, with a serious tone, pulled at her daughter's arm, "Manni, you have to tell mom the truth."
"Do you have feelings for your brother-in-law or not?"
"If you do, mom supports you! Go for it and capture his heart!!"
"Such a good son-in-law, you can't let him slip away from me!!"
Faced with her mother's sudden questioning, Li Manni opened her mouth in surprise, not knowing how to respond for the moment.
