After Su Jian came out of the operating room, Yu Anping called his adopted daughter and Grandpa Qi to inform them.

Su Jian has gotten into such a big mess, and he's even been sent to this private hospital in Kyoto. Even if he wanted to hide it from Old Master Qi, he couldn't.

Forty minutes later, Old Master Qi rushed over, followed by several bodyguards.

When Old Master Qi entered the ward and saw Su Jian lying on the bed, his old face changed, revealing a mixture of shock and anger.

"Who injured Su Jian?"

"How could you have been so badly injured?"

On the phone, Yu Anping only said that Su Jian was injured and staying in this hospital, without giving him a detailed report of what happened.

If it were just a minor injury, he wouldn't be so pale and unconscious... This proves that Su Jian's injury is very serious!

Yu Anping couldn't let Old Master Qi know about Zhou Yi, so he had to cover it up by saying, "He's from a local tyrant family in Luzhou."

"Su Jian had a minor disagreement with them..."

Even though Old Master Qi was old, his eyes were still frighteningly bright.

Upon hearing that Su Jian had been injured by a local bully, and despite not being his biological grandson, he had raised him for so long and had developed some affection for him, a chilling murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"No matter if he's a local bully or a big shot from out of town, if he dares to hurt Su Jian, I don't care who he is, I must avenge Su Jian."

"My grandson can't have suffered this blow for nothing. They stabbed my grandson once, so I'll stab them ten times in return, to show them that there are some people in this world you can't afford to offend!"

“Anping, go ahead and do it. I’ll hold up the sky for you even if it falls down.”

Yu Anping nodded repeatedly, a chilling glint flashing in his lowered eyes.

Grandpa Qi has already said that he will have a legitimate reason to go to Luzhou City again, and he will no longer need to make up lies to deceive Grandpa Qi.

Moreover, with Old Master Qi's statement, he could use his overt power in Luzhou to kill Zhou Yi without worrying about Old Master Qi discovering anything.

As long as he keeps everyone quiet and prevents the name Zhou Yi from reaching Old Master Qi's ears, everything will be fine.

The adopted daughter hurried into the ward in high heels. Upon seeing Su Jian's pale face, she angrily slapped Yu Anping across the face.

"Smack—"

Over the phone, Yu Anping confessed to his adopted daughter that Su Jian hadn't gone on vacation to another city these past few days, but had come to Luzhou to find him.

This news made the adopted daughter furious and angry, furious that her son had lied to her!

Before she could even get angry, Yu Anping's next words made her eyes widen and she almost fainted: Su Jian is seriously injured and unconscious?!

Upon further questioning, when she learned that Zhou Yi had almost killed her son, the adopted daughter flew into a rage and cursed him as a good-for-nothing.

Who is Zhou Yi? How dare he hurt her son!

This is an absolute disgrace!

The adopted daughter rushed into the hospital. When she saw Yu Anping, she couldn't contain her anger and confronted him, yelling, "Useless! You're just a piece of trash! Su Jian was perfectly fine in Kyoto, but he got injured like this after just one trip to Luzhou!"

"Yu Anping, you can't even protect Su Jian, what use are you?"

"Even worse! He was injured by the son of a bastard from Lucheng! If anything happens to Su Jian, I will never let you off the hook."

Yu Anping did not dodge, but stood still and accepted being hit by his adopted daughter!

However, Old Master Qi, who was standing to the side, frowned and spoke up to stop his adopted daughter from hitting someone without asking any questions and hurling extremely foul language.

"This isn't Anping's fault. No matter how angry you are, you can't just lecture people. He's not a servant of the Qi family that you can beat or scold at will. Be mindful of your limits!"

"Besides, this is a hospital. What kind of behavior is this, making such a racket?"

The adopted daughter also realized that she had gone too far. Yu Anping was still Grandpa Qi's confidant on the surface, so even if she was angry, she could not hit Yu Anping.

The adopted daughter took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and suppressed her anger.

"I'm sorry, I got too angry."

“Su Jian is my son, whom I carried for ten months. When I heard on the phone that he was seriously injured and hospitalized, my mind went blank, especially since he went to see Yu Anping.”

"I was overly worried and angry, and I didn't even realize what I had done."

Grandpa Qi gave a lukewarm "hmm" and said nothing more.

Yu Anping lowered his head to hide the guilt in his eyes. It was his incompetence as a father that he had failed to protect his son: "Miss, I understand how you feel."

"If you're still not satisfied, I'll let you hit me."

With Grandpa Qi present, there were many things the two could not say to each other.

Yu Anping could only resort to this method in the hope that his adopted daughter would calm down.

As they were talking, Su Jian gradually regained consciousness after the anesthesia wore off. His eyes moved slightly as he saw the people standing at the door.

"grandfather."

Su Jian opened his mouth and shouted.

Although the voice was soft, the people in the ward were not ordinary people. Upon hearing the word "Grandpa," they immediately turned their heads towards Su Jian.

Grandpa Qi walked anxiously to Su Jian's bedside, his previous seriousness vanished, and he spoke to Su Jian in a gentle, low voice.

"Child, I already know about what happened to you."

“I don’t care what conflicts you have with the local bullies, but if they dare to hurt you or my Qi family’s children, I will definitely take revenge for you.”

"You can rest here and recover. Leave the rest to Yu Anping."

Su Jian was nearly scared to death when he opened his eyes and saw Old Master Qi. Old Master Qi applied the same rules he used in the army to his home, where there were strict military discipline and regulations.

Don't be fooled by Su Jian's seemingly lawless demeanor in front of outsiders; it's because he's gotten into trouble and doesn't dare tell Grandpa Qi. Usually, if anything happens, his adopted daughter will take care of it for him once she finds out.

This is the first time that Su Jian has caused trouble to the point that Old Master Qi has found out.

The moment Su Jian saw Grandpa Qi standing there, all he could think about was that he was doomed. His grandfather knew he would definitely send him to some no-man's-land in Africa for a few months of training.

After all, that's just how Old Master Qi is.

Su Jian never expected that not only would Old Master Qi not punish him, but he would also comfort him in a low voice, which made Su Jian feel both flattered and surprised.

"Grandpa~"

After calling out "Grandpa," Su Jian felt so wronged that he wanted to cry, and his hatred for Zhou Yi intensified: "Grandpa, you must help me get revenge!"

"Waaaaah, that person stabbed me with a knife, and the knife was coated with deadly poison. It really hurts... I almost thought I would never see my grandfather again."

Seeing Su Jian in this state, Old Master Qi no longer cared about punishing him.

She almost lost her life in Luzhou, and now, pale-faced, she cried to him about the pain, wishing he were her own grandson.
