Chapter 224 Legs Healed, Activities in the Middle of the Night

Upon hearing Grandpa Chi's voice, Li Cuiwei immediately burst into exaggerated wailing.

"Dad, thank goodness you're alright. You scared us to death just now. Do you know how angry you were at Yan Zhou?"

"What will we do if anything happens to you?"

"Then Yanzhou will also be burdened with the accusation of being unfilial for causing his grandfather's death. What will become of him?!"

Xia Yuhuan said coldly, "Second Aunt, if you want Grandpa to get hurt, then keep howling."

Li Cuiwei: "..."

She immediately fell silent upon hearing this.

Li Cuiwei didn't want to be branded as unfilial.

It was only now that Old Master Chi realized that he had been so angry when he spoke to Chi Yanzhou that he had fainted from anger.

At this moment, Xia Yuhuan said, "Grandpa, you are getting old, and you shouldn't get so angry. You should have understood the principle that anger is bad for your health long ago."

"If you two hadn't gone too far, would I have been so angry?" Old Master Chi said irritably.

It's all their fault for not listening to them.

Xia Yuhuan: "You can't say that. You're angry because you have a bad temper, what does it have to do with us?"

"But I really have to remind you, try not to get angry, otherwise your body can't take this kind of abuse."

Grandpa Chi also wanted to take this opportunity to force Xia Yuhuan to apologize to Li Cuiwei.

At this moment, Chi Yanzhou spoke up: "Since Grandpa is alright, Ayu, let's go back first. I'm tired."

He wasn't actually tired, but he was really fed up with seeing these people's faces here.

They weren't very capable, but they had quite a temper. If it weren't for the old man's sake, he wouldn't bother associating with them.

Moreover, the old man had almost been angered to the point of illness just now, and he didn't want to stay any longer and cause any more trouble.

Xia Yuhuan quickly agreed.

She put away the needles and quickly went to Chi Yanzhou's side.

"Why are you so tired? Are you feeling unwell?" Xia Yuhuan asked with a worried expression.

"It's alright, let's go back first."

Then, Chi Yanzhou said to Grandpa Chi, "Grandpa, Ayu and I will head back now. Please take it easy and don't drink anymore."

Although Old Master Chi was just furious with Chi Yanzhou.

However, he did indeed love his eldest grandson, Chi Yanzhou, very much.

Upon hearing him say he was tired, Grandpa Chi seemed to have forgotten the argument he had just had with Chi Yanzhou and how he had almost stormed off in anger. He had no intention of keeping him there and quickly nodded.

"Okay, then go back and get some rest. Once you're fully recovered, we'll get together and have a good drink together."

Upon hearing this, Chi Yanzhou nodded slightly and then looked at Chi Ruide: "Uncle Grandpa, I'm sorry for disrupting your birthday banquet. Ayu and I will be leaving now."

Chi Rui waved his hand with a smile: "Nothing like that, no need to apologize."

"You've only been awake for a short time, and your body isn't fully recovered yet. Go home and rest well."

Chi Yanzhou then left with Xia Yuhuan.

Because Old Master Chi had almost gotten into trouble earlier, Chi Shaokang and the others didn't dare to leave together, but stayed behind to keep an eye on things.

So that if anything unexpected happens to Old Master Chi later, the reputation of being unfilial will not fall on Chi Yanzhou's head.

After leaving the hotel where the birthday banquet was held, Xia Yuhuan sighed and said, "It's a good thing I was there today, otherwise Grandpa would have really been in trouble."

Chi Yanzhou sighed helplessly, "Grandpa is so old, yet he still has such a temper. It's really frustrating."

Xia Yuhuan: "The older you get, the more childlike you become. It's normal for your behavior to deteriorate and become abnormal."

"I don't think I saw He Qijun at the banquet just now, so did he leave first?"

"I think so," Chi Yanzhou replied.

If he wasn't mistaken, He Qijun should be on the run right now.

His act of stirring up trouble today was not for nothing.

"Okay." Xia Yuhuan sighed regretfully.

She had originally wanted to see how He Qijun was arrested and brought to justice.

However, I know that such a scene of fighting and killing will not appear in a situation like today.

Unless they truly want to sever all ties with their great-uncle Chi Rui De, they will always have to be somewhat discreet about it.

Chi Yanzhou said, "He's not important. Come on, I'll take you somewhere."

"Where to?" Xia Yuhuan asked.

"You'll know when we get there," Chi Yanzhou said, keeping everyone in suspense.

The driver then drove them to a mountain outside the city.

The road up the mountain was so bumpy that Xia Yuhuan almost threw up.

After the car finally stopped, Chi Yanzhou said, "Let's go. We'll have to climb the rest of the way ourselves."

Xia Yuhuan was already feeling terrible when she heard this, and she almost burst out laughing: "Climb up yourself?"

"Even if I can do it, can you?"

Her gaze fell on Chi Yanzhou's legs.

Has this guy forgotten that he's still in a wheelchair?

Upon hearing this, Chi Yanzhou smiled slightly, a rare occurrence.

In front of Xia Yuhuan, he placed his long, slender feet on the ground and stood up.

Then he reached out his hand to her: "Ayu, come here, give me your hand."

Xia Yuhuan: "..."

Her expression shifted from slight surprise to understanding.

"I was wondering why there hadn't been any updates on your leg recovery lately. Turns out you'd already recovered and were just keeping it from me."

"Chi Yanzhou, how naughty of you!"

"I thought there was something wrong with your leg recovery, and I was even thinking about whether we should change the treatment plan!"

Seeing Xia Yuhuan's indignant expression, Chi Yanzhou smiled slightly.

"Ayu, I just wanted to give you a surprise, I didn't mean to hide it from you."

"Ayu, I've finally stood up. Are you happy?" Chi Yanzhou asked softly.

Xia Yuhuan's resentment dissipated, and she couldn't help but nod with joy, saying, "Yes, of course I'm happy."

"Congratulations, Chi Yanzhou, you've finally stood up again," Xia Yuhuan said earnestly.

Chi Yanzhou reached out and pulled her down.

Xia Yuhuan stood in front of Chi Yanzhou, looking up at him.

He's really tall.

He was so tall that even looking up at him made her neck feel tired.

Chi Yanzhou held Xia Yuhuan's hand tightly and led her forward.

"Your foot has been hurting for days. Can you climb mountains? Aren't you too tired?" Xia Yuhuan couldn't help but ask with concern.

"Don't worry, my foot is completely healed. I've been doing experiments these past two days."

"Although my physical fitness has declined somewhat, it's not to the point that I can't climb this small section of the mountaintop," Chi Yanzhou said.

Xia Yuhuan felt relieved after hearing his words and followed him up the mountain.

She complained as she climbed.

"You're really something. If you're going to give me a surprise, just give me one. What kind of surprise is it to bring me hiking so late at night?"

"Aren't you afraid that if I lose my footing, we'll both tumble down together?"

"No, I'll hold your hand and make sure nothing happens to you," Chi Yanzhou said firmly.

Upon hearing this, Xia Yuhuan couldn't help but smile slightly.

The anger that had initially been felt from being dragged up the mountain late at night had subsided considerably.

Perhaps it's true, as the saying goes, being with someone you love makes everything you do enjoyable.

After climbing for a while, Xia Yuhuan heard a loud bang.
