Chapter 474: 441 Mother-in-law-to-be is Coming to Hua City (Burst Update 1)

Bai Dingxian really didn’t like listening to Ge Qing harping on about marriage and childbirth. He perfunctorily responded with a few grunts and moved his phone away, turning on speakerphone so he could do whatever he wanted.

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, he grabbed his pajamas, ready for a shower.

While Ge Qing was prattling on, Bai Dingxian walked under the shower head, "Mom, I’m about to take a shower. It’s really cold inside because there’s no heating in Hua City, and I’ve already stripped. Do you plan on me catching a cold?"

"Alright, I won’t disturb your shower then. I’ll come over to Hua City in the next few days and help you buy an apartment, so you don’t always have to hole up in that dormitory," she said.

Bai Dingxian: "..."

Since when had he mentioned wanting to buy a house in Hua City?

Was his mother simply too wealthy with nowhere to spend her money?

She had just been urging him to return to Beijing with Lu Han, and now in the blink of an eye, she wanted to come to Hua City to buy him a house?

Wasn’t his mother’s approach a bit too fantastical?

Without even taking his shower, Bai Dingxian opened WeChat and sent Ge Qing a message: [Mom, buying a house is a big deal. Investing in Hua City’s property really isn’t that meaningful. Don’t waste your pocket money.]

[Coming to Hua City to buy property is less practical than just getting a few beauty or gym memberships. Really, your son doesn’t need it.]

Ge Qing immediately sent a voice message: "It’s not for you, it’s for my future daughter-in-law. That’s it, you don’t need to worry about this."

Bai Dingxian: "..."

How did it turn into a future daughter-in-law?

Bai Dingxian couldn’t be bothered to type a response and sent a voice message instead, "Mom, there’s not even a hint of a relationship yet, don’t talk nonsense."

"How can you say there’s not a hint? Didn’t you two go on a blind date?"

"..."

Yes, they did go on a blind date, but that had nothing to do with a future daughter-in-law.

"So, are you two dating now?"

"..."

At best, it could be considered that they were cooperating to avoid being pressured by their elders into marriage.

As for marriage, Bai Dingxian truly hadn’t considered it yet, even though his grandfather had mentioned that if he moved fast enough, he could have his wedding together with Lu Han’s.

He knew his grandfather was anxious, and the suggestion came from hoping that his good relationship with Lu Han could influence him positively.

Otherwise, the Bai family’s third son would have become one of Beijing’s notorious playboys.

Actually, being a playboy wasn’t that bad—in the least, one’s soul could remain relaxed and free.

If he were a playboy, then upon encountering Sun Qing, he would have relentlessly pursued vengeance against that woman.

But now, he wasn’t, so his mindset and the way he conducted himself were entirely different.

All of these changes, it must be said, were thanks to Lu Han’s influence.

Lu Han’s presence had redirected his otherwise troubled life back onto the right path.

And those from his former circle, the reckless rich kids, had faced punishment and paid the price for their arrogance.

"So, there’s definitely potential in this. Leave the rest to your mom, some things, you just don’t understand."

"You’re just like Lu Han. Focus on your work, save your patients, and leave the big matters of your life to your mom and grandpa."

"Be good, it’s getting late. Hurry up and shower, then head to bed. Good night, sweet dreams."

"..."

Meanwhile, Sun Qing had taken a bath and lay in bed, unable to close her eyes.

Damn it, why am I suffering from insomnia tonight?

Logically, after the joyful dinner at the little tavern and a few drinks, she should have slept beautifully.

The sleep-deprived Sun Qing sat up, grabbed her phone, opened WeChat, and subconsciously clicked on Tang Su’s profile, then froze. At this time, Tang Su was probably enjoying a romantic moment with someone.

Better not disturb their intimate time.

Sinful things shouldn’t be done.

Sun Qing then clicked on Bai Dingxian’s profile, "Old Bai, have you gotten home?"

From Doctor Bai to Old Bai, Sun Qing herself wasn’t sure when she had changed the nickname, but after she started calling him Old Bai, she never called him Doctor Bai again.

As usual, the message was sent into the void with no response—a stone dropped into the ocean.

Sun Qing didn’t call him either. When she decided to be with Bai Dingxian, she had anticipated that their relationship was different from the regular dating relationship she had in mind.

Going out to eat, shopping, watching movies—that was out of the question, and talking on the phone for hours was even less likely.

Bai Dingxian, other than working, seemed to wish he could spend all his remaining time sleeping—where would he find the time and mood to accompany her, his nominal girlfriend, to shop, eat out, or watch movies?

Sun Qing didn’t wait for Bai Dingxian’s reply and started scrolling through short videos on her phone. Watching those silly videos when she couldn’t sleep at night often helped her fall asleep.
