Sir, How About A Marriage?

duty.
After all, it might be inconvenient for Grandma to travel to the hospital.”

“I agree.
However, it’s better that you speak to him.” Mu Chen looked at Song Ning from the corners of his eyes and smiled.

Song Ning could not help but blush when she felt his gaze on her.

“Based on what I saw earlier, he treats you sincerely and loves you like an elder.”

“Yes…” Song Ning nodded slightly as a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes.
“In fact, Professor Li is my grandfather’s apprentice.”

Mu Chen was taken aback.
“Your grandfather?”

Song Ning nodded.
“I studied medicine because my grandfather told me that I should become a doctor if I can’t get into politics.
I can’t become a politician, but I can become a great doctor.”

Mu Chen smiled bitterly.
“Ning, your family members are very outstanding, huh? Professor Li is one of the best doctors in the nation.
This means your grandfather… I don’t even dare to guess… Moreover, your mother is a master at embroidery.
It feels like you’re way out of my league!”

Song Ning smiled and gently hit him.
She knew he was trying to cheer her up.

After a moment, Mu Chen asked tentatively, “Then, your father…”

Song Ning’s expression darkened instantly.
“He is powerful and influential as well, but we no longer have anything to do with each other.
I only had my grandparents and mother.
Now that they’re gone, I’m an orphan.
I have no family, and I’m on my own.”

Mu Chen instantly refuted her words.
“That’s not true! You have me and Grandma!”

Song Ning fell silent.
Life was really full of surprises.

Mu Chen smiled and changed the subject.
“Grandma is looking more energetic recently.
She looks forward to your return from school every day as soon as she sends you off in the morning.
My position in the family is really precarious now.”

Song Ning had erected a thick barrier around herself; she was used to protecting herself.
However, those who knew her, especially elders like Mu Chen’s grandmother and Professor Li, would be inexplicably fond of her and want to protect her.
