This was probably not Su Yan’s misconception. After hearing Lu Juan’s name, the young nurse’s expression froze for a moment. After a moment, the young nurse confirmed, “Are you sure it’s Ms. Lu Juan?”

“That’s her. May I ask what happened to her?” Su Yan answered. At the same time, a faint sense of unease rose in his heart.

The young nurse smiled stiffly. “No, no. Our sanatorium’s facilities are perfect. The patients can get a lot of rest here, so… ahem, Ms. Lu Juan is recovering well.”

Su Yan did not understand. She was recovering well, but why did the nurse have such an expression? Could it be that this recovery was not as bad as she thought?

Under the guidance of the nurse, Su Yan soon arrived at Lu Juan’s room.

It was really a room.

The condition of this sanatorium was very good, and the environment and facilities were also very good. Therefore, almost every ward was not decorated like a ward. For example, Lu Juan’s room was very personal.

The room was filled with photos of her and Yun Yi, as well as long pink tassels and a princess bed.

At that moment, Lu Juan was sitting on the bed in a good mood, swinging her thin legs. She was holding something in her hand and humming a song. She seemed to be in a good mood.

Hearing that someone was coming, Lu Juan raised her head. Seeing that it was a nurse, she didn’t pay much attention. Although this was her room, it was still a nursing home after all. She had to cooperate with the doctors and nurses.

However, Lu Juan felt that the young lady following behind the nurse looked a little familiar, but she didn’t know where she had seen her before. She tilted her head and thought for a long time, but in the end, she couldn’t figure it out.

Whether it was before or after they got married, Lu Juan had never really interacted with outsiders. After the divorce, she was directly sent to the sanatorium, so Lu Juan’s personality was still a little naive. Although she had faint wrinkles on her face due to the passage of time, her actions and her speech was like a youngster.

“Lu Juan, Lu Juan?” The nurse called out to Lu Juan. Lu Juan turned her head to look at the nurse curiously. The nurse pointed at Su Yan, who was looking over, and said, “Someone is here to see you. Do you want to see her?”

Lu Juan looked at Su Yan and said after a moment, “I don’t know her. Who is she?”

Hearing this, Su Yan felt slightly uncomfortable. ‘I don’t know her.’ Her biological mother did not know her. Su Yan could not help but turn pale.

Although Lu Juan couldn’t be blamed for this kind of thing, only the person involved could understand the bitterness.

Lu Juan felt that Su Yan looked familiar, so she took a few more glances at her. After a long while, she suddenly asked, “You look familiar, and you look a little like Ah Yi. Are you my daughter?”

Her attitude was a little casual. The sadness that was brewing in Su Yan’s heart just now instantly dissipated. It was better not to know such a mother.

But in the end, Su Yan was still an adult. After a light agreement, she said, “I am Yun Xi.”

She thought that Lu Juan would have a different reaction after hearing that. However, Lu Juan clapped her hands and jumped off the bed. She walked up to Su Yan and tutted. “I told you that you’re not good-looking enough. If only I brought you for plastic surgery earlier back then. Look at you, your left eye and right eye are asymmetrical.”

Su Yan : “…”

Assistant Liu, who had a shrewd look on his face, suddenly choked. He did not expect that the touching reunion of the mother-daughter pair would become like this. This made him feel a little complicated.

Looking at the stunned Su Yan, Lu Juan suddenly smiled. Her eyes curved into crescents, and the corners of her eyes squeezed out some fine lines. Her short stature appeared very exquisite in front of Su Yan.

However, as Lu Juan smiled, tears welled up in her eyes. “Good child, good child. Mommy really didn’t expect to see you again.”

Su Yan did not expect to see her mother again in her lifetime. When she heard Lu Juan’s voice, Su Yan felt a lump in her throat. However, she had never interacted with her mother before, so she did not know what to do.

Looking into Lu Juan’s expectant eyes, Su Yan opened her mouth and finally squeezed out the word ‘Mom’ from her throat.

“Yes, yes!” Tears streamed down Lu Juan’s face. She wiped them away and looked up at Su Yan with her bright red eyes. She kept saying, “Good child, good child.”

When the nurse saw that the mother and daughter had reunited, she felt that it was inappropriate for her to be here, so she silently bade farewell. Before she left, she even glanced at Assistant Liu, who was standing there. After a moment, she shook her head and closed the door.

Outside the room, the nurse was still thinking to herself. Indeed, one should not judge a book by its cover. He looked like a decent person, but in reality, he did not have any EQ at all. Just look at how the mother and daughter were getting to know each other so well. Why did he not stay away?

Assistant Liu did not expect that he could be accused like this all because he wanted to protect Su Yan.
