"Did you investigate your mother's side of things?"
Wan Yu glared at her father, but Wan's father didn't look at her or notice her glance.
Mu Yinyin shook her head, "No."
Because she had never doubted her father's words and didn't think he would lie to her.
Wan Father's gaze shifted, and he finally nodded, "Oh, is that so? Perhaps I was mistaken."
"You were mistaken. How could Yinyin have blood from Country E?" Wan Yu said with disgust.
Wan Father snorted and remained silent.
But his eyes kept scanning Mu Yinyin, feeling that his suspicion was not wrong.
After a pause, he said with a chuckle, "Alright, I'm fine now. You don't need to stay here to look after me. Wan Yu, take this girl out. Your mother can stay here."
Wan Yu looked at her father a few times, seeing that he was much better and not as weak as before. After a pause, she nodded, "Okay, then we'll be going. Call me anytime if there are any issues."
"Oh, I'm not that fragile. Don't look at my age, I'm still strong and vigorous, understand?" Wan Father waved his hand impatiently, urging them on.
Wan Yu was amused, "Strong and vigorous? Talk to me about it when you can stand up straight next time. Otherwise, I'll really look down on you."
"Get out, get out!!" Wan Father seemed angered, glaring at her, "You just know how to anger me all day. Hurry up and get lost, as far as you can go."
"You shut up! If you hadn't smoked so much, would you still be lying in a hospital bed? I think your daughter hasn't lectured you enough. If you talk back again, I'll skin you!" Wan Mother was furious.
Wan Father instantly quieted down.
Wan Yu burst out laughing, "See, my mother is the most sensible!"
Mu Yinyin pulled at her lips, not finding their behavior unpleasant. Perhaps families from scholarly backgrounds might disapprove and think the young and old didn't respect each other.
But in reality, families like this had a good atmosphere. As long as everyone was united, it was a good thing.
"Alright, I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm leaving."
"Hurry!" This time, Wan Father, under Wan Mother's pressure, only said "hurry." Otherwise, he would have added "get lost."
"Then, I'll be going now. Uncle Wan, Aunt Wan, see you next time."
Wan Father immediately smiled and nodded, "Alright, girl. Come visit us when you have time. You're a good girl, and Uncle likes you very much. Your Aunt Wan has always been a good cook. When you come, she'll make you some good dishes to try."
Wan Mother immediately nodded, "When your Uncle Wan is better and doesn't need my care, you come over, girl. You and Yu have known each other and worked together for so long, yet you've never visited our home. Why don't you come over in a few days? Tell Auntie what you'd like to eat."
Wan Father, who was just arguing with Wan Yu, became incredibly amiable when Mu Yinyin spoke. Wan Yu made a funny face at him, her eyes full of disdain.
Then, she directly said, "Alright, you two should focus on recovering. Once you're better, I'll bring Yinyin over."
"Okay, then it's settled," Wan Mother said happily.
Mu Yinyin smiled, "Okay, then I'll look forward to Auntie's cooking."
"No problem, that's my responsibility."
Thus, they chatted and laughed for a few more minutes, and Wan Yu took Mu Yinyin away from the hospital.
As they were about to get into the car, Wan Yu saw Mu Yinyin heading towards the driver's seat. She chuckled, "Come on, I'll drive this time. I was too worried on the way here and afraid of driving poorly. You can rest this time."
Mu Yinyin smiled and opened the driver's door, not yielding. "It's just driving, it's not tiring. You go to the passenger seat."
Wan Yu nodded, "Alright, then I'll give you the chance to be my driver."
Saying that, she stepped in her high heels towards the passenger seat. Mu Yinyin couldn't help but smile, "Okay, Your Ladyship."
Wan Yu smiled and got into the passenger seat.
Soon, Mu Yinyin started the engine. Wan Yu, sitting in the passenger seat, looked at Mu Yinyin and asked again, "Regarding my father's condition just now, if he continues to smoke, will there be a risk of cancer?"
Mu Yinyin's gaze paused slightly, but she still replied truthfully, "Yes."
Wan Yu frowned, "You might think we bicker, but he's actually very timid. If he knew he had a serious illness, he would scare himself to death. Although he always says he wants to die sooner to be reborn, it's because the old couple secretly saw a doctor without my knowledge recently."
Speaking of this, Wan Yu couldn't help but sigh, "Last time, when he coughed, he found blood, and he was terrified. After seeing the doctor, he was prescribed medicine and told to quit smoking. That's why he's been so obedient recently. Otherwise, do you think he would have been so compliant?"
Mu Yinyin nodded, "Smoking and drinking are addictive. Often, one can't control it. However, since Uncle Wan is afraid, perhaps this time he can successfully quit."
"Sigh... But when he really can't stand it, he still wants to smoke a cigarette or two. It's just that the frequency has decreased compared to before. If he continues to smoke like this..." At this point, Wan Yu suddenly fell silent, her face growing increasingly worried.
Mu Yinyin's gaze shifted. After some thought, she said softly, "The possibility of cancer isn't very high, but it's true that he should be advised to smoke less. I'll prepare some preventive medicine for Uncle Wan when we get back. At least, if he really can't quit smoking as advised, and in the worst-case scenario, if cancer does develop one day, taking my medicine will delay it by four or five years."
"Then I'll trouble you!" Wan Yu said with gratitude.
Mu Yinyin sighed softly, "It's best to find a way to stop him from smoking."
Wan Yu scratched her head in frustration, saying with some exasperation, "He's timid, but his nicotine addiction is super strong. If I tell him that he'll get cancer if he keeps smoking like this, he might go to the hospital for a check-up within a few days. If cancer is found, then it's completely over."
Mu Yinyin's eyes flickered. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
However, she suddenly recalled how Uncle Wan looked at her just now. His gaze was a little off. And later, after hearing that her mother had passed away, he seemed to have something to say but stopped. She didn't know if it was a premonition or something else, but she felt that Uncle Wan's statement about her relatives being in Country E was not quite right.
Because.
She suddenly thought of... !
