“Nice to meet you. I’m Xie Yi.”
Xie Yi took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with Wu Tong.
Wu Tong heard rumors about a woman living in Lang Garden some time ago.
Now that she got to meet Xie Yi herself, she could not help but agree that her temperament was indeed extraordinary.
Xie Yi was well-maintained. She had bright eyes and shiny teeth, and she was extremely elegant.
Suddenly, a fleeting thought crossed her mind. She would not be surprised if Xie Xuning remarried in the future.
“Aunty, Xie Yi’s the doctor who operated on my grandmother. It’s all thanks to her that Grandmother was able to wake up from her sleep.”
Upon hearing Ye Tianxin’s introduction of Xie Yi, Wu Tong said to Xie Yi in a grateful tone, “Dr. Xie, thank you so much. If it wasn’t for you, Tianxin would be pushing herself so much more now. It’s really all thanks to you.”
Wu Tong’s enthusiasm was a little overwhelming for Xie Yi.
She withdrew her hands from Wu Tong’s in slight discomfort.
“You’re being too polite.”
“I’m not being polite. I’m just very grateful to have you as Tianxin’s grandmother’s doctor. You probably don’t know that Tianxin only gets four to five hours of sleep every day because she pursued two degrees simultaneously for her grandmother. She studied and practiced every day. I was so worried that she’d fall sick…”
Xie Yi heard what Wu Tong said and looked at Ye Tianxin. She did not know about Ye Tianxin’s past.
“Aunty, it’s cold outside. Let’s head inside.”
“Okay.”
Wu Tong held Ye Tianxin’s hands in hers as they walked into the house together. Once they were inside, Uncle He served them tea.
Xie Yi was wearing an apricot-colored high-necked sweater. She had fair skin and jet-black hair, and she looked like she was only in her early 30s.
“Dr. Xie, our family’s grateful to have you.”
Xie Yi frowned slightly. This lady seemed to have a close relationship with Tianxin.
“Are you Tianxin’s aunt?”
Wu Tong covered her mouth and laughed. “No, I’m Tianxin’s future mother-in-law.”
“Oh…”
Xie Yi felt slightly disappointed. She had no idea that Tianxin had a boyfriend.
Ye Tianxin sat beside Wu Tong and laughed. “Aunty, I think we scared Dr. Xie.”
“I thought that people of your age would love freely, but I didn’t expect that you guys…”
Xie Yi was quite shocked. Ye Tianxin was only 18 years old, but she already had a boyfriend. Did Xie Xuning know about this?
Wu Tong had a different opinion on this matter. She happily said, “They are in a relationship of their own free will. At first, I did not approve of Tianxin because she was too young and had no family background. I didn’t understand why someone as outstanding as my son would fall for a young lady who had nothing. After that, my daughter persuaded me to accept Tianxin. Who would have imagined that the young lady who had nothing back then turned out to be Xie Xuning’s daughter…”
“My son has a good eye for women. What do you think, Tianxin?”
Ye Tianxin nodded. “That’s a given.”
Wu Tong and Ye Tianxin were close with each other, and Wu Tong had an outgoing personality.
The two looked like mother and daughter when they were chatting with each other.
“Oh, right. Tianxin, I bought you some clothes.”
Wu Tong opened the paper box, took out some nice-looking clothes, and showed it to Ye Tianxin.
“Back then, when Xingchen was at your age, I loved dressing her up too. Now, she has her own opinions. Tianxin, do you like these clothes?”
