Chapter 135: About To Go Crazy

Only then did Wei Xinyue remember about the medical examination.
She nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes, yes. Let’s go and see the results of the medical examination first. We’ll talk about Lin Bai’s matter later.”
Ling Xuewei was extremely helpless. She secretly prayed in her heart that it would be best if there was something else going on later that would completely change this matter. She must not let her mother remember it again.
In the past two days, whenever Wei Xinyue had time, she would be constantly muttering to Ling Xuewei about how good Lin Bai was.
She kept praising Lin Bai and talking about him all the time. Those who did not know would probably think that Lin Bai was really her son-in-law-to-be.
Ling Xuewei really could not understand. They had only met once and had only had a meal together. Why did her mother set her sights on Lin Bai?
‘Does Lin Bai have some kind of magical power?!’
Lin Bai already had a partner, but Wei Xinyue kept telling her to hold on tight to him. What could she hold on to?
‘Am I supposed to sow discord between them and come in between their relationship!?!’
Ling Xuewei really had a headache.
Back then, she was so happy to reunite with her mother. Now that she was being nagged at, she felt depressed.
“Win some, lose some. Nothing is perfect.”
Ling Xuewei could only sigh and comfort herself in her heart.
Fortunately, there weren’t too many problems with her mother’s medical report.
This made Ling Xuewei’s depressed mood improve a lot.
Wei Xinyue had been wandering outside for many years. Malnutrition and some chronic diseases were inevitable.
Fortunately, those weren’t serious diseases, nor were they life-threatening. As long as she took her medicine on time and paid more attention to recuperation, there wouldn’t be any major problems.
Ling Xuewei carefully memorized the various methods of recuperation that the doctor had mentioned, as well as the areas that she needed to pay attention to in her daily life. Then, she noted down a list of treatment methods and brought her mother home.
“Mom, I’ve written down the usage and dosage of these medicines on the medicine box with a marker. Remember to take them.”
“I might not have the time to remind you every single day. You must remember it yourself. Don’t forget it.”
Ling Xuewei warned.
Unexpectedly, Wei Xinyue said, “I’m not eating it! There are so many types of medicine. It’s almost time for dinner. Can I still eat after eating all these?”
“As the old saying goes, medicine is poisonous. Even if I don’t die of illness later, these medicines will kill me first. Whoever likes to eat these things can eat them. Anyway, I’m not eating them!”
Ling Xuewei massaged her temples with a headache. She felt her head buzzing.
Wei Xinyue saying that she didn’t want to eat them after the medicine was prescribed was really infuriating.
It wasn’t that she was worried about money. It was just that if her mother didn’t take the medicine when she was sick, her chronic diseases would just become more serious.
There was no other way. Ling Xuewei could only endure it and try to persuade her.
“Mom, these aren’t poisons. They’re not as scary as you think. Even if there are some side effects, they will do more harm than good.”

“If you don’t take them, won’t you suffer more when the chronic diseases in your body develop more seriously?”
“It’s better to take your medicine when the symptoms are still mild. When you’re healthy in the future, I can take you on a trip with me.”
Wei Xinyue said stubbornly, “No, no, no! Take it away! My body is very healthy, I’m not suffering from any illness! Don’t curse me!”
Ling Xuewei said helplessly, “Mom, you have seen the medical report yourself. You also heard what the doctor said at that time. How long has it been? Have you forgotten all of it?”
“It’s fine if you can’t remember. I will take you back now and let the doctor explain it to you again, okay? If you don’t believe what I said, you should at least believe what the doctor says, right?”
Wei Xinyue stubbornly refuted, “I’m not going! Western doctors are all swindlers! All they do is make people take medicine! If you want me to see a doctor, then take me to see a Chinese doctor. Chinese medicine is reliable, unlike Western medicine, which is all poisonous and don’t treat the root of the problem!”
Ling Xuewei nodded helplessly. “Alright, Alright, then let’s go see a traditional Chinese doctor again. Please put on your coat. We’ll go now.”
Wei Xinyue finally listened to her.
However, halfway through putting on her coat, she suddenly thought of something and slapped her thigh hard.
“Oh, right! Lin Bai has medical skills! What’s the point of seeing a doctor? Why don’t you just get Lin Bai to come over and take a look at me!”
Wei Xinyue took off her coat and threw it to the side. She sat back down on the sofa and said to Ling Xuewei, “Get Lin Bai to come over and treat me! I can’t trust anyone else!”
Ling Xuewei’s head was splitting.
She pressed hard on her temples and repeated for the umpteenth time “Mom, I’m really not close to him.”
“You’ll get close after a few more interactions!”
Wei Xinyue said, “Isn’t that how relationships work? If you trouble me today, I’ll trouble you tomorrow. Your relationship will get closer after a few interactions.”
“You’re always afraid of causing trouble for others. If you don’t look for others for help in anything, how will your relationship work? You’re so stubborn! You don’t know the ways of the world!”
Ling Xuewei had been in the business world for nearly ten years, and this was the first time she had heard someone say that she didn’t know the ways of the world.
However, she had no way to argue with the person who said that about her.
She was getting a huge headache.
Ling Xuewei felt that if this continued, she would probably go crazy.
She endured it again and again before she could restrain the irritation in her heart and explain nicely.
“Mom, I’m going to meet Lin Bai the day after tomorrow to discuss some matters. I’ll help you ask him if he has the time to come over. But before he comes over, can you take the medicine for two days first?”
When Wei Xinyue heard that her daughter was going to meet Lin Bai the day after tomorrow, she was instantly elated and no longer stubborn.
“Okay, okay, okay. Then I’ll take the medicine for a few days first but you must remember to tell Lin Bai to come over and help me treat my illness! Don’t forget!”
Ling Xuewei nodded weakly. “Yes, yes, yes. I’ll remember. I won’t forget.”
With such a mother, she really couldn’t do anything about it.
After all, she was the mother that Ling Xuewei had been hoping would return to her side, for over twenty years. What could she do? She could only coax her!
In the blink of an eye, it was Monday the day that Ling Xuewei and Lin Bai had agreed to meet to discuss the cooperation.
Wei Xinyue woke up early. She got busy in the kitchen for a long time and made a sumptuous breakfast.
Then, she went straight into Ling Xuewei’s room and lifted her quilt.
“It’s already past six o’clock, why are you still sleeping? Have you forgotten what day it is today? Hurry up and get up! Mom has already made breakfast for you! Hurry up and wash up. Tidy up after eating and leave a good impression on Lin Bai!”
In a daze, Ling Xuewei took out her phone from under her pillow. When she clicked on the screen, she was about to go crazy.
She said helplessly, “Mom, it’s only 6:10 am. Isn’t it too early…”
“I only go to work at 9 am. My appointment with Lin Bai is at 10 am. Why are you waking me up at such an early hour?”
Wei Xinyue said unhappily, “What? What else is it for? Don’t you need time to change and tidy your hair?! Don’t you need time to put on makeup?! Hurry up and get up!”
