Xian Zihao walked towards her; he seemed to have just returned from outside.
Jiang Ruolan paused, and two nurses took the opportunity to push Jia Zhenzhen back into her room. Seeing her in this condition, Jiang Ruolan even thought that Jia Zhenzhen would hit and scold the nurses, but she was so obedient and looked very scared.
Jiang Ruolan felt even worse.
When Xian Zihao reached her side and saw her standing there in a daze, he then glanced at Jia Zhenzhen, who had been pushed away. He automatically understood something had happened.
The atmosphere in the front garden was very quiet. Only the faint sound of water can be heard from nearby springs.
Jiang Ruolan turned to look at Xian Zihao and asked, "Jia Zhenzhen didn't let dad approach her at all?"
Xian Zihao was silent for a moment, then said, "According to what I saw, she was very resistant to dad. My proximity with her is not enough to make her throw something, but as long as dad was close, she would throw things at him with all her might."
Jiang Ruolan looked at him in astonishment, unable to understand how the usually wise and decisive Xian Zihao couldn't handle this matter. However, seeing him wasn't worried at all, she frankly said, "I just met her here but she did nothing to me. She seemed very scared of me. I held her hand, and she stood behind me like a child. She didn't hurt me at all."
After saying that, Jiang Ruolan fell silent. She rubbed her nose embarrassedly, knowing that when she ran out in the middle of the night like this and approached Jia Zhenzhen, Xian Zihao would definitely scold her. She was ready to be scolded, but despite waiting a long time, he still didn't say anything.
Jiang Ruolan raised her head and looked at Xian Zihao's handsome face. She noticed that he was looking at her with a helpless smile on his face. As she looked at him in confusion, he pinched her cheek. "You already know what I'm going to say to you, aren't you?"
"I couldn't sleep, so I went out for a walk. I didn't expect to meet her. I didn't dare to approach her and was on guard, but …She really didn't hit me." Jiang Ruolan said seriously.
Seeing her so serious and apologetic, Xian Zihao glanced at the fake mountain behind the two of them, then looked back at her. With a faint smile, he said, "Since you know you are wrong, I don't need to say anything more. Be careful in the future. Even if you want to see Jia Zhenzhen, make sure that I was by your side."
"Got it, President Xian. I already said it wasn't intentional, it's just a coincidence. I will be careful next time."
It was 2 in the morning. Meeting each other in this kind of place could be considered a 'coincidence.'
"Zihao, can I go see her tomorrow?" Jiang Ruolan asked as they were walking back.
Xian Zihao turned around and used both hands to hold her hands. His gaze fell on her sincere eyes before he lowered it slightly to her big stomach as if he was considering something.
"I promise to be very careful. If you can't follow me, or if you don't have time, you can ask the medical staff here to follow me. I will only approach Jia Zhenzhen when she is calm. If she is crazy, I will run away. I will definitely not let her hurt our child!"
Jiang Ruolan immediately pulled her hands out of his grasp, and like a primary school student, she raised them above her head and said with a smile.
Xian Zihao looked at her in silence for a while. When she wasn't sure if he would agree to all of this, he finally smiled gently and kissed her forehead. "Since you wanted to meet her so much, I will make an arrangement tomorrow. However, you must remember what you have said."
"En!" Jiang Ruolan nodded vigorously.
However, she didn't notice the bitter smile that flashed across Xian Zihao's face when she turned around …
****
The next day, Jiang Ruolan found out that since Xian Guiying had not been in the company recently, Xian Enterprise had been taken over by Vice-President Wei. Xian Enterprise's stock had fallen and Xian Zihao, in order not to worry her, hid these things from her.
He took the time to drive back and forth from the sanitarium to the company every day to support Vice-President Wei's work. In addition, he also communicated with many of the company's old subordinates and directors.
That day, Xian Zihao had a board meeting to hold, so he couldn't stay with Jiang Ruolan. When he was convinced that Jia Zhenzhen's mood was stable today, he asked a few medical staff to accompany her.
At that moment, Jia Zhenzhen was pushed to the pool in the front garden. Two medical staff were by her side, and at the same time, another nurse was carrying a tray with a plate of food and a bowl of soup. Looks like it's time for Jia Zhenzhen to have lunch.
It seemed that Xian Zihao had told the medical staff to improve Jia Zhenzhen in all aspects before he left this morning because she looked much more comfortable today.
Jiang Ruolan simply took the tray from the nurse and said, "Let me send it."
"This …" The nurse was stunned for a moment. "But Mr. Xian said –"
"It doesn't matter. I think Jia Zhenzhen might recognize me. She won't do anything to me. If she really wants to do something violent, I'll avoid it as soon as possible."
"Alright then." The nurse nodded her head hesitantly.
Jiang Ruolan then walked over with the tray and smiled at the two medical staff who looked at her.
They also nodded their heads before quietly retreating a bit.
Jiang Ruolan gently placed the tray on the marble seat.
"Auntie Jia, how are you today? Is something wrong with your body? I came to see you again." She bent down, put one hand on her stomach, and said with a smile.
Jia Zhenzhen didn't seem to hear her and didn't react. She just stared straight ahead at a certain point.
When Jiang Ruolan saw a cushion that the medical staff had put down specially for her, she sat down on it and picked up the bowl. She stirred the soup with a spoon and then said softly, "Auntie Jia, let's drink this soup first before you eat the rice. Come."
With that, she placed the spoon next to Jia Zhenzhen's mouth and said, "Open your mouth, I will feed you."
Jia Zhenzhen slowly turned her head, still in a daze. She stared blankly at Jiang Ruolan for a long time. Jiang Ruolan carefully put the spoon to her mouth, then she slowly opened her mouth.
Seeing that Jia Zhenzhen didn't reject her at all and was so obedient, Jiang Ruolan was very happy. Did this mean Jia Zhenzhen's condition will improve?
Jia Zhenzhen must have heard what she said about Jiang Yijun. She (Jia Zhenzhen) must have remembered her own son, which was why she didn't reject her (Jiang Ruolan) so much.
If Jiang Ruolan can bring Jia Zhenzhen back to H City, then Jiang Yijun can take care of her and stay by her side.
In time, her madness will be cured.
Jiang Ruolan fed her two mouthfuls of soup, but her mouth seemed to be stiff. Half of the soup flowed out of her mouth, making her clothes get dirty.
Jing Ruolan quickly used a handkerchief to wipe Jia Zhenzhen's mouth, carefully and gently, as if she was taking care of her mother.
Jia Zhenzhen's hair was still tangled as before. Jiang Ruolan held her hand, and as she wiped her mouth, she carefully pushed the hair in front of her face with her (Jiang Ruolan) fingers. The rare thing was that Jia Zhenzhen didn't push her away but just stared at her. She seemed to be thinking of something.
Her hair was very clean. After all, in the sanatorium, no matter how unable Jia Zhenzhen was to take care of herself, there was still some medical staff to clean her body.
Somehow, when Jiang Ruolan touched Jia Zhenzhen's face with her fingers, she felt as if a soft spot had been touched in her heart.
Was it because she missed her mother too much?
That's why she had this kind of feeling when she was facing Jiang Yijun's mother?
Especially when she realized that although the 50-year-old Jia Zhenzhen's face had more scars than in the photos, she still looked to be in her early forties. She (Jia Zhenzhen) didn't have many wrinkles, but her skin was severely aged, and her eyes were sunken.
Jiang Ruolan always felt that this Jia Zhenzhen was more like her mother. Her appearance was similar to the girl in the photo in Senior Zhou's hand. Jia Zhenzhen's appearance was very similar to Zhou Qingling's, so when she wasn't looking carefully, she always felt that she was looking at her mother. Although Jia Zhenzhen was old and no longer had the luster from when she was young, her face gave Jiang Ruolan the illusion that the one in front of her was her mother.
