Almost 9 o’clock, Lu Fangfei personally came with a doctor to change Zhang Jingdong’s dressing.
After the doctor left, Lu Fangfei said gently, "Xiao Zhang, last night was quite special, so I didn’t get a chance yet. Now I want to formally thank you from the bottom of my heart for bravely saving our Xiao Yu despite the danger!"
Zhang Jingdong, seeing her trying to stand up, hurriedly said, "Please, don’t be polite. Not only are Lawyer Qin and I business partners, but we also consider each other friends."
"Seeing her in danger, I simply couldn’t just stand by."
"Moreover, last night I witnessed Lawyer Qin’s fearless dedication to upholding fairness and justice as a lawyer, and to be honest, I truly admire her!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Fangfei’s eyes brightened a bit.
First, she found Zhang Jingdong, although young-looking, to be quite mature in his demeanor and actions.
Second, she sensed from Zhang Jingdong’s words that he and her daughter might have a possibility.
Immediately, she asked, "Xiao Zhang, how old are you this year?"
Without hesitation, Zhang Jingdong immediately answered, "I’m 26, and Lawyer Qin is exactly three years older than me."
Hearing this, Lu Fangfei’s smile deepened, "So you’re 26 already? I thought you looked at most twenty-one or twenty-two."
"I might look young just like you. Honestly, last night if you hadn’t mentioned you were Lawyer Qin’s mother, I would have thought you were her cousin at first glance; you look no more than thirty!"
Zhang Jingdong wasn’t exaggerating; although Lu Fangfei might not be as beautiful as Qin Yu, she still possessed a certain charm.
Especially now, dressed in a white coat, the uniform certainly added to her appeal.
Honestly, if he hadn’t met Qin Yu, and encountered Lu Fangfei in the hospital, he would have indeed been tempted to flirt with this attractive middle-aged doctor.
Lu Fangfei was now genuinely happy, "Xiao Zhang, you really have a way with words!"
"Really, Auntie, I never lie. If not because of Lawyer Qin, I would’ve called you ’sister,’ or maybe I should call you ’auntie’ in public and ’sister’ in private?"
"Haha, that won’t do, how can we mess up the family roles? But Xiao Zhang, you’re really sweet!"
"By the way, Xiao Zhang... do you have a girlfriend right now?"
Zhang Jingdong directly shook his head: "No, I’ve been too busy with business, never considered that aspect."
"Also, maybe it’s because I never really met the right person before."
Lu Fangfei was initially a bit nervous asking this question, as Zhang Jingdong was not only handsome and accomplished, but at 26, it was very likely he already had a girlfriend.
Hearing this, she breathed a sigh of relief, then said, "I see, then what type of girl do you like? We have many single female doctors here in the hospital, if there’s someone who meets your standards, I can introduce you."
Zhang Jingdong took the opportunity to say: "I like someone mature and wise, and of course, if she could also meet a certain standard in terms of physical appearance, that would be even better."
Saying this, Zhang Jingdong saw Lu Fangfei showing a knowing smile, then straightforwardly said: "Actually... I’ll be frank, I think your daughter is quite wonderful. I just don’t know if she has a boyfriend right now."
Lu Fangfei was initially stunned by Zhang Jingdong’s directness but soon came to appreciate his straightforward personality.
"Xiao Zhang, no wonder at such a young age you are able to achieve so much and dare to do what’s right; you really have the vigor and directness of youth. Honestly, I appreciate you."
"Xiao Yu is currently single, and I... I think you are quite suitable for her!"
"And I can tell you, I can see that Xiao Yu also has a good impression of you, especially since you risked so much to save her and even got injured."
"I think you can take advantage of this time she’s taking care of you, try to develop things in that direction, and don’t worry, Auntie will support you to some extent!"
Zhang Jingdong immediately laughed, "Auntie, with your words, I feel at ease!"
"I will definitely try my best to become part of your family soon!"
Lu Fangfei was also completely joyful now: "Good... Auntie is also looking forward to that day!"
They chatted a bit more, and then Lu Fangfei left the sickroom.
Almost 10 o’clock, Zhang Jingdong went downstairs and found Li Yiran anxiously waiting outside the operating room.
She looked exhausted, clearly having not slept well the night before.
Zhang Jingdong quietly sat down next to her and gently said, "Have you eaten breakfast?"
Li Yiran blankly shook her head.
Just as Zhang Jingdong was about to continue soothing her,
Li Yiran suddenly cried and hugged Zhang Jingdong, "I’m scared... now I only have my grandmother left..."
"Congratulations, Host, you have received a proactive hug from the target person, award 100,000 yuan!"
Zhang Jingdong, enduring the pain in his back, gently patted her shoulder, "Don’t worry, grandma is blessed and the surgery will definitely be successful!"
"Plus, you have more than just your grandma now, you also have me, your potential boyfriend. Just say the word, and I’m always ready to become your family member!"
Li Yiran, caught off guard, slowly released Zhang Jingdong, her gaze intense as she looked at him.
Zhang Jingdong met her gaze and sincerely said, "If you decide later you don’t want me as your boyfriend, that’s okay too. I’ll always treat you well, always protect you, and look after you like my own little sister!"
