Witnessing Tong Wan, a once sickly figure, now beaming with happiness, Gu Yang couldn’t help but smile. “As long as it brings you joy.”

“Yangyang is so considerate,” Ruan Xueling complimented Gu Yang before turning her attention back to Tong Wan. “Come, Sister Tong Wan, let me guide you through…”

Tong Wan eagerly absorbed Ruan Xueling’s instructions, quickly grasping the basics of using her phone.

“Actually, we rarely make calls nowadays. We mostly communicate through WeChat. Let me help you set up an account,” Ruan Xueling suggested as she downloaded the app for Tong Wan. Then she remembered, “Oh, we need to get you a SIM card first, using your ID.”

Tong Wan nodded, glancing at Gu Jin, who was reviewing medical records. She gently tugged at her shirt and looked up. “Jin, my ID card is with Yize. Could you ask him to get me a SIM card?”

“Of course,” Gu Jin agreed, unperturbed. She dialed Xiao Yize’s number.

On the other end, Xiao Yize sounded surprised upon receiving Gu Jin’s call. “Alright, Miss Gu. I’ll be there soon.”

A faint smile played on Tong Wan’s lips, a glint of mischief in her eyes.

Observing this exchange, Gu Yang couldn’t help but feel a mixture of amusement and exasperation. It seemed Mother Xiao was putting in quite the effort for Teacher Xiao. Not long after waking up, she was already helping him pursue his love interest.

Tong Wan navigated through her phone, opening apps one by one.

Ruan Xueling provided explanations, “This is the Grape app. It’s used for watching short videos and dramas.”

Tong Wan suddenly pointed to a small window and asked, “Is that Yangyang?”

Ruan Xueling glanced at the screen and saw the recommended variety show titled “Drinking in the Countryside.” “Yes, Yangyang filmed that variety show with her cousin.”

Recently, Ruan Chu’s school drama had gained popularity, prompting many to revisit the variety shows she had appeared on. As a result, they naturally appeared on the homepage.

The screenshot displayed Gu Yang and Ruan Chu together on the variety show.

Intrigued, Tong Wan clicked on it and began reading with keen interest.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yize hurried to the hospital and handed Tong Wan the prepared phone card.

With Ruan Xueling’s assistance, they installed the card and set up Tong Wan’s account, enjoying themselves immensely.

As Gu Yang and Gu Jin prepared to leave, Tong Wan requested, “Yize, take Jin and Yangyang home.”

Xiao Yize accepted with a smile, and Gu Jin didn’t object either.

Gu Yang couldn’t help but feel like a third wheel once again.

A few days later, Ruan Xueling was discharged from the hospital. Gu Zhaoming arrived to pick her up personally.

Excitedly, Gu Zhaoming went to greet Ruan Xueling, expecting her to happily embrace him upon their reunion. However, he was surprised to find her embracing another woman.

After bidding farewell to Tong Wan, Ruan Xueling expressed her reluctance, “Sister Tong Wan, I hope you have a swift recovery.”

Tong Wan smiled gently. “Thank you, Xueling. I’ll see you in the capital.”

As a parting gift, Gu Yang had prepared a bottle of perfume for Tong Wan, specifically chosen for its beneficial effects on her recovery.

“Thank you, Yangyang,” Tong Wan expressed her gratitude, accepting the perfume. Feeling touched, she opened her arms to embrace Gu Yang and planted a kiss on her cheek. “I love you!”

After becoming a fan of Gu Yang through her variety show, Tong Wan also joined the ranks of her mother fans, affectionately referring to her as “daughter” in the online fan community.

Gu Yang was taken aback by Tong Wan’s warmth. Auntie Tong Wan was truly a gentle soul.

Suddenly, she found herself wishing that Teacher Xiao would successfully win over her sister soon.

Feng Jue’s expression darkened, and a hint of resentment flickered in his eyes. He began to harbor a dislike for Xiao Yize.

This member of the Xiao family was becoming unbearable. Not only had he failed to eliminate Gu Jin from the equation, but now he was even bringing someone else into the mix to vie for his sister’s affection.
