Mu Shinian looked around the hospital ward again, but not seeing Lu Jingchen, she asked, "Sis, where's brother-in-law?"
Song Qiao's pace faltered, but she quickly recovered and placed the insulated food container on the table inside the ward, speaking somewhat awkwardly, "Your brother-in-law went out. Do you need him for something?"
The fact that Mu Shinian accepted Lu Jingchen caught her off guard, and she didn't know when it started; every time Mu Shinian saw Lu Jingchen, she would straightaway call him brother-in-law. Sometimes even when she came to the hospital and didn't see Lu Jingchen with her, she would ask, 'Why didn't brother-in-law come?' 'Where did brother-in-law go?'
This made Song Qiao feel like the child she had raised for so many years was snatched away by Lu Jingchen just like that.
That feeling was indeed a blatant irritation.
