524 Stubborn Grandma Li (2/2)

”Grandma Li will be fine,” she murmured.

He didn't reply, only squeezing her closer to him.

A few minutes later, a nurse called them inside the room, informing them that the doctor had finished examining Grandma Li. When they entered, the elder woman sat on the bed. Contrary to what they expected, she looked energetic.

Huang Yuyan hurried to her mother-in-law's side. ”Mother, how are you?!”

”Calm down, Yuyan my dear. I already told you that I'm alright. The doctor says that I'm also alright. Right, doctor?”

They all turned to the doctor.

”Yes, she's fine now, medically speaking,” he told them.

It was only then that everyone released big sighs of relief.

”However, she's now advanced in age. Her heart isn't as strong as it used to be. As much as possible, avoid making her feel too emotional or distressed. She might experience a full heart attack next time. We don't want that, so please take care of her overall physical, mental and emotional health,” the doctor explained.

”Oh, thank goodness!” Huang Yuyan exclaimed.

”Doctor, I want to attend my granddaughter-in-law's party tomorrow. It's an important event. Can I go?” Grandma Li asked.

Jin Liwei: ”Absolutely not.”

Huang Yuyan: ”Mother, no!”

Iris: ”Grandma Li, please rest.”

”But I want to attend. I'm feeling alright now!” Grandma Li said, her tone stubborn.

”It should be fine,” the doctor said. ”Like I said, your grandmother is fine now. All the tests we conducted on her returned with normal results. Medically speaking, she's healthy. However, we must all remember that she's already advanced in age. No matter how healthy she is, her body and her organs aren't what they used to be when she was younger. She can attend the party tomorrow but make sure that she doesn't exert herself too much and get plenty of rest before and after. Understood?”

”See? I told you I'm fine.”

Iris smiled at her. ”Grandma Li, thank you very much. I appreciate that you want to attend my company's grand launch tomorrow to show your support for me. But I think that it's safer for you to stay at home and rest. How about we livestream the event for you so that you can still watch it even when you're resting at home?”

”En, good idea,” Jin Liwei immediately supported her suggestion.

Huang Yuyan followed suit. ”That's a great idea, Xiulan! Mother, let's do that instead. Okay?”

But Grandma Li remained stubborn. ”No. I want to attend so I will.”

Iris and Huang Yuyan looked at Jin Liwei with helpless expressions on their faces.

”That old gorilla will be attending tomorrow. There's no way I'm going to stay at home while he has all the fun! He's attending to support Xiulan. I also want to go because I'm proud of my future granddaughter-in-law. This is my right! Why are you all stopping me?”

The doctor discreetly excused himself to allow the family their private conversation. After thanking him, they returned to discussing Grandma Li's desire to attend the grand launch of Iris' company, Orchidia Beauty, tomorrow.

They all tried persuading her to stay at home and rest but the elder lady refused. She insisted on attending the grand launch.

”Isn't it fine? Let Grandma Li attend if she wants to. I'll also attend tomorrow. Don't worry. I'll be her escort and keep an eye on her,” Wang Yingjie said, appearing in the room all of a sudden.
