"Zhang, young people value love above all else. You stubborn old mule, what do you know!"

Liu Zhengqing had been bedridden for a long time, and although Li Junyi was still feeling a bit aggrieved, she couldn't help but laugh at the sight of Zhang Shoufu's stubbornness.

"I don't care about love or no love, even if I quite like Ye Chen, I can't just throw my daughter into the mix," Zhang Shoufu said with a huff.

Zhang Xinlan hadn't introduced Ye Chen to her parents in detail, only mentioning his identity, so Zhang Shoufu and Ms Zhang knew very little about him, with their memory of Ye Chen stuck over a decade in the past.

"Zhang, I suggest you not interfere with your daughter's romantic life," Li Junyi advised Zhang Shoufu.

"Junyi, your daughter is still young, you haven't considered the major matter of her marriage for her, you don't understand how serious this is," Zhang Shoufu sighed.

Zhang Shoufu hoped to see his daughter marry well, wanting Zhang Xinlan to find him a wealthy son-in-law, rather than a poor boy from the countryside, hence Zhang Shoufu didn't like Ye Chen very much.

"What's there to understand or not, haven't I heard enough from Shihua about Ye Chen? He seems to be a fine young man, be content, Zhang!" Li Junyi said.

"Alright then, if you think Ye Chen is good, I will have my daughter break up with him to let your Shihua be with Ye Chen," Zhang Shoufu said with a naive smile.

"..." Li Junyi's facial expression froze.

"Enough, Zhang, stop making a fool out of yourself," Wang Liyun chided her husband, then turned to Li Junyi. "Junyi, I'm sorry. Zhang is just a rough man, he'll never change his ways till the day he dies, don't be mad, okay?"

"Sister Wang, we've known each other for years, how could I be mad?" Li Junyi smiled generously, showing that she didn't mind.

"Shihua, Xinlan, why haven't they arrived yet?"

Seeing the anxiously waiting couple, Li Junyi's face revealed a faint smile. She had been uneasy about her husband's condition, but it seemed as if Zhang Shoufu and his wife were even more anxious than she was, which made her smile contentedly.

...

Liu Shihua drove to the hospital.

"Haha, I am so awesome. That guy just now wanted to overtake me, but I stepped on the gas and left him behind!" Liu Shihua said excitedly as she got out of the car.

"Ugh!" Zhang Xinlan's face was pale, and she acted like she was going to vomit the moment she got out of the car, but after trying for a while, nothing came out.

"Zhang Xinlan, are you pregnant?" Liu Shihua curiously asked, seeing Zhang Xinlan's nauseated state.

"Liu Shihua, I'm going to kill you, you drive so recklessly, don't you care if you kill someone!"

Zhang Xinlan felt like having a life-and-death duel with Liu Shihua. The way the big star drove was simply playing with human lives.

"Alright!" Ye Chen soothed Zhang Xinlan briefly, then turned to Liu Shihua. "Shihua, from now on, if you want to go somewhere, let me drive you there. If I'm not around, find someone else, and if all else fails, take a taxi. Don't ever go driving on your own again, got it?"

"Ye Chen, what's wrong, is my driving really that bad?" Liu Shihua blinked.

"It's not that it's bad, it's that it's too good!" Ye Chen didn't hesitate to praise her. "On our way here, you nearly ran over five people, twice nearly crashed into a utility pole, and almost flew off a flyover when overtaking. You could kill someone driving like that!"

"I, I, I'm sorry; I didn't mean to?" Liu Shihua said with an embarrassed smile.

"Let's get to the hospital!" Zhang Xinlan said. "Liu Shihua, be more careful when you drive, don't end up killing yourself!"

"Tsh, my driving is excellent," Liu Shihua retorted.

In the end, Liu Shihua dragged Ye Chen with her into the hospital, reaching a high-level intensive care unit.

...

Seeing the two dignified and beautiful women, and Zhang Shoufu sitting in the chair, tugging at his hair, Ye Chen's steps momentarily faltered.

"Mom, Ye Chen is here!" Liu Shihua called out.

"Shihua, is this Ye Chen, the 'Divine Doctor' you mentioned?" Li Junyi's eyes sparkled as she saw Ye Chen.

"Daughter, you're here," Zhang Shoufu said happily when he saw Zhang Xinlan.

"Dad, Mom, what are you doing here?" Surprise flashed across Zhang Xinlan's face upon seeing her parents, but she quickly came to a realization.

Zhang Xinlan had told her parents that Ye Chen would come to treat Liu Shihua's father, so she surmised that her parents probably couldn't wait to meet their prospective son-in-law.

Ye Chen looked at Zhang Xinlan's parents and then at Liu Shihua's mother, and unconsciously felt a bit nervous.

Seeing that tall man and the dignified lady, memories surged in Ye Chen's mind.

Ye Chen vaguely remembered that Zhang Xinlan's father was a carpenter, and her mother was known in the village as a virtuous wife.

"Mom, this is Ye Chen!"

Before Zhang Xinlan could make introductions, Liu Shihua, holding her mother's hand, bounced over to Ye Chen.

"Ye Chen, hello, I'm Li Junyi, Shihua's mother. It's really troubling you to come all the way from Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan to treat Shihua's father," Li Junyi said with a smile.

"Auntie, you're being too polite. Shihua and I are good friends; it's all things I should do. How could it be troubling?" Ye Chen said with a slight smile, shaking hands with Li Junyi.

"That's right, I get along well with Ye Chen, you don't have to thank him," Liu Shihua pouted.

"You little mischief, even if you have a good relationship, Ye Chen is still Xinlan's boyfriend, your future brother-in-law!" Li Junyi said inexplicably. "Your brother-in-law has come a long way, you should thank him!"

"I know, Mom," Liu Shihua nodded obediently. "Brother-in-law, my mom wants me to thank you!"

Liu Shihua came before Ye Chen and winked at him gently, like a sly little fox, causing his heart to flutter.

There was an air of mature beauty about Li Junyi, elegant and refined, the very image of an upper-class lady.

Liu Shihua's beauty and poise were largely inherited from her mother, Li Junyi.

However, facing Li Junyi, Ye Chen felt an inexplicable sense of guilt.

"Mom and Dad, please come over, let me introduce you, this is Ye Chen, my boyfriend."

After talking with her parents for a while, Zhang Xinlan pulled her mother's hand and brought her to Ye Chen.

"Auntie, I'm Ye Chen."

Ye Chen bowed slightly to Ms. Zhang. This woman had shown him kindness; when Ye Chen was orphaned and alone, Ms. Zhang had brought him warm steamed buns.

"Ye Chen, I wouldn't have thought that the wild child from back then has grown up so much!" Wang Liyun nodded with a smile, seeming very satisfied with her daughter's boyfriend.

Wang Liyun held no prejudice against Ye Chen, unlike her husband Zhang Shoufu, who felt Ye Chen was not good enough for his daughter.

On the contrary, Wang Liyun had a good impression of Ye Chen. From the moment she saw him, she started to observe him.

As she marveled at the vast changes in Ye Chen, she was also amazed by his demeanor and speech. He was surely going to be an exceptional man!
