Chapter 599: Admirer

The next day, she woke up very early and went to the market to buy a chicken raised at home. Then she returned home to boil soup.

She put a lot of effort into boiling the soup. She removed the chicken skin, cut it into pieces, and placed them in a clay pot. She brought it to a boil over high heat, then simmered it over low heat.

As she was worried it would be oily, she scooped out the oil floating on it.

Although she felt uncomfortable, she endured it.

Finally, waves of fragrance wafted from the pot.

Ye Xiaomeng carefully packed it up and put it in a thermos.

When she asked He Ming where he was last night, she found out which hospital and unit his mother was in.

She put on a loose-fitting dress and left with a thermos.

When she arrived at the hospital, the smell of disinfectant assaulted her senses, and she felt a little nauseous.

She quickly walked to the elevator and wanted to take the elevator to the floor where Mother He was.

At the corner, she saw the elevator door open. Suddenly, a familiar figure came out from inside. She was about to go up and greet He Ming but saw a beautiful woman accompanying him. She had a chin-length bob and a tall, elegant figure, exuding a sense of intellectual beauty.

The two of them chatted as they walked. They looked very familiar with each other and ignored the people around them.

When Ye Xiaomeng saw this scene, she felt tens of thousands of ants were biting her heart. So this was why he had been so busy recently?

Even after He Ming and the beauty had walked far away, Ye Xiaomeng still stood in a daze, looking lost.

Her mind was blank, and she couldn’t figure out what to do next.

Who was that girl? His friend? Relative? But it’s so early. Would relatives come to visit so early?

That was all she could think of. She looked at the thermos in her hand and wondered if she should send it up. Would she be humiliated?

She stood there like a fool for a long time until she saw He Ming return after sending the short-haired beauty off. He then took the elevator up.

She thought for a moment. She had taken so much time to boil the chicken soup, and it would be a waste not to send it up.

Hence, she moved her feet and pressed the elevator button to go up.

After she went up, she immediately found Mother He’s ward.

Mother He was hospitalized because of a heart problem. She was probably fine now. She heard from He Ming that she could be discharged after a checkup in two days.

Ye Xiaomeng walked over nervously. Perhaps He Ming had just gone in, so the door was not closed.

The voices of Mother He and He Ming came from inside.

“Has Yao Ning gone back?” Mother He asked with concern.

“Yes, I just sent her off.” He Ming replied.

“Mmm, she’s indeed a good child. She still recognizes me after such a long time. It’s all thanks to her that I’m hospitalized this time.” Mother He’s words were filled with gratitude.

He Ming didn’t say anything.

Mother He continued, “I have a deep impression of this little girl. When you were studying, she always liked to come to our house. I can tell she likes you very much,” Mother He said cheerfully.

Mother He was immersed in her memories. He Ming sighed. “Mom, that was all in the past. Why are you still bringing it up?”

“Is she married?” Mother He suddenly thought of something and asked.

“I’m not sure. It’s a personal matter,” He Ming said casually.

“Ming, Yao Ning is a good girl. She has a good job, too. She’s much better than that person.” Mother He didn’t mention names, but everyone knew she meant that Ye Xiaomeng wasn’t as good as Yao Ning.

“Mom, rest well. Don’t worry about those trivial things.” He Ming really felt helpless.
