Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 368: Chapter 368: A woman like Bai Jue

Lin Dong listened to Li Qingcheng’s words, and at first, there wasn’t much to it.

But when he got to the last sentence, he almost spat out his saliva.

”Sister Qingcheng, having seven kids, isn’t that a bit too many?”

”Hahaha...” Li Qingcheng couldn’t help but laugh out loud, but suddenly, she fell silent.

Then, with a seriousness she had never shown before, she continued to Lin Dong:

”You still have a long way to go to fulfill what I’ve said. To be honest with you, my mother’s clan is comparable to the Lin Family from the Capital City. Even my father isn’t considered significant in their eyes.”

”I’m not joking with you either. If you really reach that point, making my mother’s clan look up to you, little brother, then whatever you want me to do then, I will do...”

Having said that, he checked the time.

”Alright, little brother, it’s getting late, I have to go to the airport.”

After speaking, she waved her hand and left decisively.

”Little brother, I’m off. Remember our promise today; I’m waiting to have those seven kids for you.”

Lin Dong: ”...”

Watching Li Qingcheng’s retreating figure, he found her somewhat incomprehensible.

He felt that women, as creatures, were sometimes very complex.

Like a book you can never finish, like a bottle of wine you can never drink dry...

...

That night, Lin Dong followed Bai Jue to Bai Family’s place for a visit.

The two of them were there to say goodbye.

Because tomorrow their advanced studies would be completed, Bai Jue would also return to Jianghai with Lin Dong.

Chen Wan herself cooked a table of delicious dishes, and the family enjoyed the meal together.

In addition to the Bai Family’s people, there was also Long Ying.

Lin Dong, Bai Zhonglou, and Bai Xiaolou, the three men, also drank some wine.

As for Long Ying, he didn’t drink because of his health.

After dinner, Lin Dong, Bai Zhonglou, and Long Ying went to the study room to discuss matters.

As for Bai Jue, she was busy cleaning up the dishes and utensils.

At this time, her mother took her hand and said:

”Daughter, come here. I have something to tell you.”

Bai Jue smiled lightly and followed her mother, Chen Wan, aside.

Her mother, Chen Wan, looked at her daughter, Bai Jue, and said softly:

”Daughter, why don’t you stay in the Southern Capital? Don’t go back?”

”Come to Mom’s company; Mom will teach you how to do business. In the future, all of the Bai Family’s industries will be yours.”

Bai Jue gently shook her head.

”Are you lacking confidence? Don’t worry, Mom will help you,” said Chen Wan.

Bai Jue still shook her head.

”Is it because you can’t bear to leave Lin Dong? Daughter, sometimes as a woman, you also need to be independent and have your own career.”

”Lin Dong is bound to stand out in the future, and he might have many women around him. You don’t want to just be a vase by his side, do you?”

When Chen Wan said this, her heart actually ached. But in order for her daughter to stay, even though she felt a little cruel, she had to speak her mind.

Bai Jue still didn’t speak.

Her mother, Chen Wan, continued, ”Daughter, if you follow me in business and later take control of the Bai Family’s Business Empire, you could support Lin Dong.”

”Then, in Lin Dong’s heart, your position will become even more important. What do you think?”

”Don’t you want to grow up and help him?”

She believed that such words would surely convince her daughter to stay.

After all, she knew how much her daughter loved Lin Dong.

But still, Bai Jue shook her head.

This time, she spoke up.

She said, ”But Mom, I just want to be a little woman by his side. It doesn’t matter if I am a vase or if I am of no use. I just want to spend as much time as possible with him during our limited lifetimes.”

”By his side, I want to do little things for him. In the morning when he wakes up, to pour him a cup of warm water, make him breakfast, when he comes back late at night, to wait for him, prepare a cup of warm water for him, and when he’s hungry, to make him a late-night snack...”

”I don’t want to become a powerful woman, nor do I think about how much I can help him.”

”I believe, if there’s danger, he will become my sky and block everything for me.”

”And of course, even if he can’t block it, it’s okay. I will die with him.”

”So, Mom, I won’t stay in the Southern Capital. Nor will I stay in the Bai Family. Wherever he goes, I’ll go.”

Hearing this, Bai Jue’s mother, Chen Wan, fell silent.

She just thought her daughter loved Lin Dong very much.

But she hadn’t expected her to love him this much.

To love him so much that he became her whole world.

At this moment, Lin Dong, having finished discussing matters with Bai Zhonglou and Long Ying, walked out of the study room.

It was already late, so Lin Dong suggested leaving.

Naturally, Bai Jue also followed at his side, departing with him.

Watching their receding figures, Bai Zhonglou came over to his wife, Chen Wan, and said, ”Did you tell our daughter all that?”

”I did,” she replied.

”She didn’t want to stay, did she?”

”Did you know already?” Chen Wan was curious.

Bai Zhonglou laughed and said, ”It seems I understand our daughter better than you.”

”Aren’t you worried that if she plays the role of a vase for Lin Dong for too long, she might be disliked? That one day he might abandon her?” Chen Wan sighed.

Bai Zhonglou shook his head: ”Sometimes, the most ordinary companionship is what’s most precious.”

While they were talking, Lin Dong and Bai Jue had already left the Bai Family home.

They did not take a taxi back to the hotel but chose to walk instead.

Since it was getting late, there weren’t many pedestrians or cars on the streets, only the lonely lights of the street lamps shining.

Suddenly, Lin Dong said, ”Sister Bai Jue, shall I carry you on my back?”

”Sure.”

Bai Jue laughed, then lay on Lin Dong’s back.

Lin Dong carried her, patting her leg to make her position more comfortable.

Then, with his back to the street lamps, he began to walk towards the distance step by step.

Bai Jue gently rested her head on his shoulder, humming a song quietly.

The light from the street lamps cast their combined shadows on the ground.

In the sky hung a bright moon; Lin Dong stepped through the clear moonlight and the dim light from the street lamps, walking forward step by step.

Suddenly, Lin Dong said, ”Sister Bai Jue, when we are old, can I carry you like this again?”

Bai Jue tightly wrapped her arms around his neck and nestled her head into his chest.

Softly, she nodded.

”Okay.”

It turned out he had used ”Auditory Perception” in the study room to hear everything she said to her mother.

She said she wanted to spend as much time as possible with him in their limited lifetimes.

So, basking in the moonlight and bathed in the light from the street lamps, he made a wish to stay beside her until they were old.
