Just as Xie Yunzhou was about to leave, his phone rang.

Xie Yunzhou’s brows furrowed tightly after the call ended. “I’ll head over right away.”

“What’s wrong?” Shi Xi had just packed up the first aid kit when she saw his serious expression.

“Grandfather suddenly fell ill and went to the hospital,” said Xie Yunzhou.

Shi Xi stood up. “I’ll go with you.”

Xie Yunzhou was stunned. “Alright.”

Shi Xi did not think too much about it. She only thought that if Old Master Xie went to the hospital, Xie Zhongshan would definitely go too.

Without her protection, Xie Zhongshan might even fight Xie Yunzhou in the hospital.

At the hospital.

Old Master Xie had already been pushed into the operating room.

When the two of them arrived, they only saw the woman married by Old Master Xie and a man in a suit.

Shi Xi wondered if this sister had cuckolded Old Master Xie.

“Lawyer Chen, how is my grandfather?” Xie Yunzhou asked. “How did he get sick?”

So it was a lawyer.

Lawyer Chen pushed his glasses up. “Ms. Zheng was chatting with Old Master Xie. I don’t know what they talked about, but Old Master Xie’s illness acted up.

“I sent him to the hospital. The doctor said that the surgery was very risky, so I called everyone.”

It was also so that everyone could see Old Master Xie for the last time.

Shi Xi instantly felt the atmosphere turn heavy.

Xie Yunzhou looked at the woman with a sharp gaze. “Zheng Lanfeng, what did you say to Grandfather?!”

“I didn’t say anything,” Zheng Lanfeng sobbed. “I just told him to save Dong’er. Who knew that he would get angry?”

Shi Xi hid behind silently and did not participate in the Xie family’s matters.

After a while, Xie Zhongshan also came. After hearing Zheng Lanfeng’s words, he didn’t say anything and just fell silent.

“You haven’t even married into our family, and you’re already thinking of splitting the Xie family’s inheritance?” Xie Zhongshan said sarcastically when he saw Shi Xi.

Shi Xi: “…I just came to see Grandfather Xie and hope that his surgery will go smoothly.”

“Old Master Xie has already made his will,” Lawyer Chen said. “There won’t be any major changes.”

Xie Chongshan wanted to say something, but as if he was afraid of Lawyer Chen, he didn’t say anything.

For a moment, the corridor fell silent.

After waiting for two hours, the lights in the operating theater finally went out.

Everyone’s hearts were on tenterhooks as they hurriedly stepped forward.

The doctor walked out from inside. “The surgery went smoothly. When the observation is over, we will return to the ward.”

Xie Yunzhou heaved a sigh of relief. “Thank you, doctor.”

Zheng Lanfeng seemed to be afraid, but also glad. All kinds of complicated expressions flashed across her face.

Shi Xi did not understand.

“I’ll stay here and watch,” Zheng Lanfeng said. “You guys can go back to the company.”

Before the others could speak, Lawyer Chen spoke first, “I think what Old Master Xie needs most now is silence.”

“Since Old Master Xie is safe, please leave. When he wakes up, I will tell everyone.”

Shi Xi tilted her head to look at him.

Was this Lawyer Chen Old Master Xie’s lackey?

“I’ll wait outside. I won’t go in and disturb him,” said Xie Yunzhou.

Lawyer Chen thought for a moment. “Sure, as long as you don’t disturb Old Master Xie.”

“Then I’ll wait outside too,” Zheng Lanfeng quickly said.

The two of them spoke. Even if Xie Zhongshan didn’t want to wait, he had to wait.

“You can go back first. You don’t have to accompany me here,” Xie Yunzhou said to Shi Xi in a low voice.

They could only sit on hard chairs in the corridor.

How could it be more comfortable than the sofa at home?

Shi Xi quickly glanced at Xie Zhongshan and whispered, “I have nothing to do when I go back anyway.”

Xie Yunzhou caught Shi Xi’s gaze and found it funny and heartwarming. “This is a hospital, don’t worry about me.”

Shi Xi: “Because it’s a hospital, you can get the doctor to apply medicine directly if you get beaten up?”
