My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s-Chapter 695
Chapter 695: Chapter 687: There’s a Mistress Chapter 695: Chapter 687: There’s a Mistress What does she have to worry about?
But now, she found that she had a rival, and a terrifying one at that.
She was no longer in the mood to go shopping and instead took a taxi straight back to the Gu Family’s house.
Mother Gu had just fallen asleep, and just as her medicine ran out, Gu Ning brought her a small bottle.
With this medicine, she could once again sleep well.
One pill could last for three days, and if she was in a good mood, she actually didn’t need to take the medication at all.
She used to dread sleeping, especially during the day, because if she slept during the day, she would not be able to sleep at night.
...
But now, she wasn’t afraid at all; no matter how long she slept during the day, she would still sleep very well at night.
However, just as she had barely lain down, with a loud bang, the door to her room was flung open.
It’s no exaggeration to say it was flung open, violently at that.
“Auntie…” Zhang Xiaomei rushed over, not caring whether Mother Gu was asleep, whether she was suffering from neurasthenia, or whether it was hard for her to fall asleep, and just yanked her up,
If it had been Mother Gu of the past, being jerked awake like this would mean she wouldn’t be able to sleep for the rest of the day.
Thankfully, with the medication now, Mother Gu’s spirits were much improved.
The quality of her sleep wasn’t bad either, but she was still infuriated, the kind of angry without the energy to show it.
“What’s wrong?” She pulled the blanket over her legs, her innate good upbringing wouldn’t allow her to yell at Zhang Xiaomei, and taking into account that Xiaomei had once saved her son’s life, she endured no matter what…
“Auntie, Gu Ning has another woman…”
Zhang Xiaomei was sobbing, and the words “another woman” were almost hissed through clenched teeth, as if Gu Ning had cheated on her.
“Is that so?”
Mother Gu did not believe it.
She knew her son’s character; he was at the military base every day, where it was mostly a crowd of burly men.
Where could he possibly find another woman?
“There is, there definitely is.”
Zhang Xiaomei kicked the corner of the bed hard, “I saw it with my own eyes, he was driving to pick up another woman to go shopping.
Auntie, how could he treat me like this?”
Mother Gu stretched out her hand and placed it on her forehead, facing Zhang Xiaomei’s plastic-like fake face, she really couldn’t find the words to respond.
No, her eyes were hurting.
Zhang Xiaomei continued to tug at Mother Gu’s clothes, constantly complaining that Gu Ning didn’t care about her, that she was like a stray child, unloved and neglected.
Even if it was okay for a young girl to throw a tantrum occasionally, dealing with a woman whose face and expressions were rigid as plastic day in and out was bound to make anyone’s eyes uncomfortable.
Mother Gu was not just offended by what she saw; she had not slept well to begin with, had just fallen asleep, only to be rudely awakened, and now her head had begun to ache.
Suddenly, she leaned her head against the wall and gently bumped it.
Forcing her to the point of banging her head against the wall, it had to be said, Xiaomei did possess some notable skills.
“Auntie, what’s wrong with you?”
Gu Ning’s mother was truly startled by Zhang Xiaomei’s sudden act of self-harm; why would she collide with a wall like that?
“It’s nothing,” Gu Ning’s mother forced a smile even uglier than tears.
“Auntie, you must help me ask around,” Zhang Xiaomei returned to the previous topic, “find that mistress for me, and watch me not scratch her face off.”
“Okay,” Gu Ning’s mother agreed amiably, but inside, she couldn’t help feeling somewhat stifled.
Terms like ‘mistress’ and ‘another woman’ were thrown around when her son didn’t even have a girlfriend yet.
Even if he did, she would be legitimate.
As for Zhang Xiaomei, others might assume that she was a child bride chosen by Gu Ning, given that her food, housing, education, and expenses were all provided for.
Yet, there had never been talk of marriage.
She wondered if some people were overestimating themselves or genuinely believed themselves to be irresistible.
If it weren’t for that lifesaving moment in the past, Gu Ning’s mother would hardly believe she could be friends with such a plastic woman.
She did not despise the poor and love the rich, nor did she reject the ugly and favor the beautiful.
A woman who didn’t even love herself, one who had turned her face to plastic—if truth be told, she wasn’t truly liked by anyone.
Even if she looked better now, you couldn’t change genetics with a changed face.
What about the children born later?
How ugly would they be?
After finally persuading Zhang Xiaomei to leave, she picked up the phone and dialed her son.
“Gu Ning, it’s your mother.”
Gu Ning’s mother sighed and leaned her head against the headboard, embracing the handset in her arms.
“Yes, what is it, Mom?” Gu Ning was already at the military base, flipping through files.
He needed to finish early, as he was having dinner with Tang Yuxin that evening.
She was alone at home; if he didn’t go over, she wouldn’t have a bite to eat.
“It’s nothing,” Gu Ning’s mother sighed again.
“Zhang Xiaomei says you’re with a woman.
Who is she?”
“It’s Yuxin.
She went to the mall to shop and incidentally brought you some medicine.”
Upon hearing the name Tang Yuxin, her heart filled with comfort and relief.
How could such a girl exist in this world?
Was it because she was a doctor that even her name seemed healing?
“Then you get along well with Yuxin,” Gu Ning’s mother didn’t say too much.
Gu Ning was no longer a child.
She didn’t need to constantly remind him.
She trusted him to make his own decisions, and it wasn’t her place as a mother to intervene anymore.
After all, who said she wasn’t an enlightened mom?
Yes, a real mom.
“Mom, I understand,” Gu Ning responded and put down the phone.
He bent his head down and returned to attending to the files.
Of course, the conversation between them was unknown to Tang Yuxin.
She returned with a heap of things, now busy categorizing them.
Once everything was put away, she clapped her hands together.
Well done.
It was only after she finished that she realized she felt a bit uncomfortable everywhere.
Probably from too much walking.
Good, there was still time.
She decided to take a nap and wait for Gu Ning to take her out for dinner.
Eating alone was no fun, and she didn’t want to cook just for herself—gnawing on a bun alone was fine, or even not eating at all.
She stretched and walked into her room.
Opening the window let in a cool breeze that carried the unique natural fragrance of flowers, plants, and trees.

Gu Ning was right—this place was like a natural oxygen bar.
With plenty of oxygen, living here all the time would surely lead to a longer, healthier life than average.
When she woke up, Gu Ning had arrived with the meal.
It was the same every day, without fail.
