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

After hanging up the phone, Xie Yunzhou frowned. "I'll be right there."

Shi Xi had just finished packing the first-aid kit when she saw his serious expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xie Yunzhou: "Grandpa suddenly fell ill and went to the hospital."

Shi Xi stood up. "I'll go with you."

Xie Yunzhou paused for a moment, then said, "Okay."

Shi Xi didn't think that much about it. She just thought that if Old Master Xie went to the hospital, then Xie Chongshan would definitely go too.

Without her protection, Xie Chongshan might attack Xie Yunzhou in the hospital.

Hospital.

Mr. Xie has been wheeled into the operating room.

When the two arrived, they only saw Xie Lao's second wife and a man in a suit.

Shi Xi wondered, could it be that this woman had cheated on Xie Lao?

Xie Yunzhou stepped forward and asked, "Attorney Chen, how is my grandfather? How did he fall ill?"

It turns out he's a lawyer.

Attorney Chen adjusted his glasses. "Ms. Zheng was chatting with Mr. Xie, but I don't know what they talked about. Mr. Xie had a relapse."

I took him to the hospital. The doctor said the surgery was very risky, so I called everyone.

This was also so that everyone could see Mr. Xie one last time.

Shi Xi instantly felt the atmosphere become heavy.

Xie Yunzhou looked at the woman, his eyes sharp: "Zheng Lanfeng, what did you say to Grandpa?!"

Zheng Lanfeng sobbed, "I didn't say anything, I just asked him to save Dong'er, who knew he would get angry?"

Shi Xi quietly stayed in the back, not getting involved in the Xie family's affairs.

A short while later, Xie Chongshan also arrived. After hearing Zheng Lanfeng's words, he didn't say anything but fell silent.

When Xie Chongshan saw Shi Xi, he said sarcastically, "You haven't even married into our family yet, and you're already thinking about dividing up the Xie family's inheritance?"

Shi Xi: "...I just came to see Grandpa Xie and hope his surgery goes well."

Attorney Chen said, "Old Master Xie has already made his will, and there will be no major changes."

Xie Chongshan seemed to want to say something, but then remained silent, as if he was wary of Attorney Chen.

The corridor fell silent for a moment.

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

Everyone's hearts were in their throats, and they rushed forward.

The doctor came out and said, "The surgery went smoothly. After the observation period, you will be transferred back to your ward."

Xie Yunzhou finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you, doctor."

Zheng Lanfeng seemed to feel both lingering fear and relief, her face displaying a complex array of expressions.

Shi Xi didn't understand.

Zheng Lanfeng said, "I'll stay here and keep watch. You all go back to the company and get busy."

Before anyone else could speak, Attorney Chen said, "I think what Mr. Xie needs most right now is peace and quiet."

Now that Mr. Xie is safe and sound, please leave. I will convey his message to you all once he wakes up.

Shi Xi turned her head to look at him.

Is this lawyer Chen one of Xie Lao's lackeys?

Xie Yunzhou said, "I'll just wait outside and won't go in and bother him."

Attorney Chen thought for a moment and said, "That's fine, as long as it doesn't bother Mr. Xie."

Zheng Lanfeng quickly replied, "Then I'll wait outside too."

Both of them spoke up, and Xie Chongshan, even if he didn't want to wait, had to wait along with them.

Xie Yunzhou said to Shi Xi in a low voice, "You should go back first. You don't need to stay here with me."

You can only sit on hard chairs in the corridor.

Where is there a sofa as comfortable as the one at home?

Shi Xi glanced quickly at Xie Chongshan and whispered, "Anyway, I have nothing to do when I go back."

Xie Yunzhou caught Shi Xi's gaze and found it both amusing and heartwarming. "This is a hospital, don't worry about me."

Shi Xi: "Since it's a hospital, can I go directly to the doctor for medication if I get hit?"
