Lu Aotian glanced at her. "I couldn't casually go to your home, so I came here. I hope you don't mind, mother-in-law?" he deliberately emphasized "mother-in-law" to let her know he had found out her identity.
Xia Rou froze. She wanted to run away but for some reason, this man's gaze made her legs unwilling to obey her.
Lu Aotian looked at the frightened doctor. "Thanks for your help Doctor Qiao, my mother-in-law and I have some family matters to discuss in private, so we will not overstay our welcome."
Xia Rou wanted to protest, but she knew better than to do so. Although she did not know how he found out, this was her daughter's man. It was better to get on his good side as he may put in a few good words for her than make him her enemy.
They did not go very far away, they went to a café near the hospital and got a private room.
Lu Aotian did not order anything and just sat casually like he would in his own home.
"How did you find out?" that was Xia Rou's first question.
When the secret spreads, it doesn't remain a secret anymore, right? Now that Lu Aotian has a good impression of Xia Rou, you readers can be half sure that Wan Jia will not bicker with her mother too much when she is finally told the truth. By the way, it's going to happen in the next not-too-many chapters. Let me know in the comments if you would like info about next arcs (If you would like me to tell you what the next arc is about)
