The engagement is over, but the black-bellied president won't let go

Xiao Yiyang raised his voice: "Dad, work is important, but your health is more important! If you fall ill, what will happen to Ms. Qin Lan? And if you go to the hospital for a check-up and make sure there is no problem, everyone can rest assured, and you can devote yourself to work better, right?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and Xiao Zhengchun said slowly: "Yi Yang, I know you are doing this for my own good, but now is really not the right time."

Xiao Yiyang refused to give up and continued to persuade him: "Dad, think about it, if your condition worsens because you don't see a doctor in time, it will not only affect your work, but also make us worry to death. Besides, it won't take much time to go to the hospital for a check-up."

Xiao Zhengchun sighed: "Okay,... cough... cough... I'll think about it again... cough... cough..."

Xiao Yiyang quickly struck while the iron was hot: "Dad, don't think about it, I will arrange a hospital for you right away, you can go there when you have time. I'll be frank with you, you can arrange for me to do the voluntary material supply, if you don't go to the hospital, I will cancel the delivery immediately!"

Xiao Zhengchun hesitated: "You... cough... cough... you are threatening me?!"

Xiao Yiyang then said, "Dad, please listen to me this time, okay? You have always taught me to be responsible, and now you have to take responsibility for us and take care of yourself."

Xiao Zhengchun finally gave in: "Okay, son, I'll listen to you."

Xiao Yiyang showed a relieved smile on his face: "Dad, I will arrange it right away, you must go."

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yiyang turned to Qin Lan and Leng Ruofei and said, "Dad agreed to go to the hospital. I will contact the hospital now."

Leng Ruofei and Qin Lan both breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Yiyang quickly picked up his phone, contacted an authoritative hospital in Mocheng, and made an appointment with the best doctor. After everything was arranged, he called Xiao Zhengchun again and informed him of the specific time and precautions.

"Fei'er, I heard that you went to the quarantine hotel with the second brother?" Qin Lan asked with concern while carefully peeling an apple and looking up at Leng Ruofei.

Leng Ruofei took the apple that Qin Lan handed over, took a bite, nodded and said, "Mom, yes. The epidemic situation is serious. I was a volunteer in the community before. It happened that the quarantine hotel needed help. There were few community cadres, so I took the initiative to volunteer."

Qin Lan frowned slightly, took Leng Ruofei's hand, and sat on the sofa: "Fei'er, this is not a joke, that place is so dangerous. You kid, why don't you discuss it with the second brother before going there."

Leng Ruofei smiled and comforted Qin Lan: "Mom, don't worry. We have taken protective measures, and this is for everyone. Every bit of help counts."

At this time, Xiao Yiyang walked out of the room, heard the conversation between the two, and said, "Ms. Qin, my elder brother, his wife, and my father are all on the front line, so how can Fei'er and I fall behind?"

Qin Lan sighed: "You two are kind-hearted. But you should also think more about yourselves. If something happens to you, what will your mother do?"

Leng Ruofei held Qin Lan's hand: "Mom, no. When we were working in the quarantine hotel, we had strict procedures and regulations, and nothing would happen. Moreover, the staff there were very professional and took good care of us." Leng Ruofei said lightly, and all the fear, danger, worry, and fatigue were thrown behind him.

Xiao Yiyang also came over: "Yes, Ms. Qin. We saw a lot of touching things there. Everyone is working hard to fight the epidemic, and we also want to do our part."

Qin Lan shook her head helplessly: "You guys are all good kids. Then tell me what kind of work you do in the quarantine hotel?"

Leng Ruofei said excitedly: “Mom, we have to deliver meals and daily necessities to the quarantined people, assist medical staff in nucleic acid testing, and sometimes we have to calm their emotions.

"Some people were very nervous and scared when they first arrived at the quarantine hotel, so we chatted with them and helped them relax."

Qin Lan listened carefully, with distress in her eyes: "That must be very hard, right?"

Leng Ruofei smiled and said, "It is hard, but seeing everyone slowly adapting and the situation getting better day by day, I feel that it is all worth it. We also made a lot of like-minded friends there, and it feels great to work together for the same goal."

Qin Lan gently stroked Leng Ruofei's head: "I'm glad you think this way. But you must take care to protect yourself, okay?"

"I know, Mom." Leng Ruofei replied sweetly.

The three chatted for a while, and Qin Lan smiled and got up to go to the kitchen to prepare dinner. A symphony of pots and pans came from the kitchen, and soon, Qin Lan prepared a table full of sumptuous meals. The table full of delicacies exuded an enticing aroma, making people salivate.

"Come, eat more and replenish your body." Qin Lan kept picking up food for Leng Ruofei, her eyes full of kindness.

Xiao Yiyang took a bite of the dish and said with satisfaction: "Ms. Qin, your cooking skills are still so good. This tastes even better than what the chef at Binhailou makes!"

Leng Ruofei also nodded and praised: "Well, it's delicious. Every dish is delicious, Mom, you have worked hard."

Everyone ate and chatted, and a warm atmosphere filled the whole room.

After dinner, Leng Ruofei took the initiative to help clear the dishes and cleaned the table swiftly. Xiao Yiyang sat in the living room with Qin Lan to watch TV.

The TV was broadcasting news about the epidemic, showing the hard work of medical staff from all over the country and the people's unity in fighting the epidemic. Xiao Yiyang said: "You see, the epidemic has been gradually brought under control thanks to everyone's efforts. I believe it won't be long before we can completely defeat it and return to normal life."

Qin Lan smiled and said, "Yes, this is the result of everyone's joint efforts. The medical staff fighting on the front line and the countless volunteers who silently dedicate themselves are all heroes."

After cleaning up the kitchen, Leng Ruofei also came over and sat next to Xiao Yiyang. She hesitated for a moment and wanted to ask why Xiao Ye was not at home, but swallowed the words back. Xiao Yiyang seemed to have noticed her thoughts, hugged her shoulders, and asked for her: "Xiao Ye is not at home recently?"

Qin Lan was startled, a trace of vigilance flashed in her eyes, and she quickly glanced at Leng Ruofei, then replied: "I went to Canada with someone before the epidemic. Now that the epidemic has broken out, I can't come back for the time being."

Xiao Yiyang frowned, knowing that the other person must be Yu Yiran. When he had spoken to Yu Yiran before, she had told him that she was receiving rehabilitation treatment in Canada. Xiao Yiyang had even arranged for a friend there to take care of her.

"I hope everything is fine with Xiaoye over there." Xiao Yiyang sighed softly.

Leng Ruofei comforted him, "Don't worry too much. Once the epidemic is over and traffic returns to normal, she should be able to come back soon."

Qin Lan nodded, with a hint of worry in her eyes: "I don't know if she can get used to it there, alas."

Xiao Yiyang said: "Don't worry too much. The friends I arranged will take good care of her and will tell us in time if there is any situation."

The three of them fell into a brief silence, and the news on TV continued to broadcast.

Time passed by unknowingly and the night gradually deepened.

Qin Lan said: "Don't go back tonight, just stay here."

Leng Ruofei subconsciously looked at Xiao Yiyang, asking for his opinion with his eyes. During this period, Qin Lan was alone at home, and she was indeed lonely enough. Her children and husband were not around, so they should also spend more time with her.

Xiao Yiyang could instantly see what she was thinking from her eyes, so he smiled and said to Qin Lan: "Ms. Qin, then we will stay and accompany you."

Qin Lan showed a relieved smile on her face. Leng Ruofei chatted with her until very late, and finally, at Qin Lan's urging, the two of them went to take a bath and go to bed.

Leng Ruofei walked into the bedroom. The room was decorated simply and warmly, with light blue curtains fluttering gently in the breeze. Sitting on the bed, a hint of shyness appeared on her face. Xiao Yiyang walked to her side and gently held her hand.

"Fei'er, I'm very happy that you can stay with me." Xiao Yiyang said affectionately.

Leng Ruofei lowered his head slightly and responded softly: "In the past few months, Mom has been alone at home and has been really lonely."

Xiao Yiyang smiled: "She's used to it. When I was young, my dad was often not at home. Later, we all went to college, but she insisted on letting Xiaoye live at home..." He gently hugged her in his arms, and the two of them quietly felt each other's warmth and heartbeat.

Xiao Yiyang slowly loosened his arms, looked at Leng Ruofei's slightly red cheeks, and couldn't help but gently kiss her forehead.

"Fei'er, since we got married, it seems that we don't have much time to spend together quietly like this." Xiao Yiyang's eyes were full of love and emotion. His gaze was like a deep lake, containing endless tenderness and attachment.

Leng Ruofei raised her head, with a gentle light flashing in her eyes: "Yes, but there are still many days to come, and we will have more moments like this." Her voice was as gentle as the wind, as if it could soothe all the uneasiness in Xiao Yiyang's heart.

Xiao Yiyang gently brushed her hair with his fingers, as gentle as if he were treating the most precious treasure in the world, and said, "I feel particularly at ease with you by my side."

The two of them lay on the bed hugging each other. Xiao Yiyang hugged Leng Ruofei tightly, letting her head rest on his chest, as if he wanted to embed her into his body, never to be separated.

"Honey, I like being held by you like this." Leng Ruofei murmured, with a hint of laziness and satisfaction in her voice, like a docile kitten.

Xiao Yiyang gently stroked her back, feeling the warmth of her skin: "Fei'er, there is something I want to confess to you." His voice trembled slightly, with a hint of nervousness.

"What's the matter?" Leng Ruofei reached out and took his hand, placing it around his waist, fitting it perfectly against his, trying to give him some courage and comfort.
