Xu Jiang had been patient for a long time since she entered the door, but now she saw some clues in Wan Sheng's attitude and could no longer bear it.
"Master Wan, do you really want to cure Madam's illness?"
Upon hearing this, Wan Qingmiao was surprised at first, then frowned and said to Xu Jiang, "Madam Xu, please be careful with your words."
Liu Mei finally interrupted, "Why don't you first persuade your father to be more careful with his words."
Wan Qingmiao wanted to refute, but because he was a guest, he was afraid of scaring his mother and couldn't speak.
Xu Jiang tugged at Liu Mei's sleeve, signaling her to stop, and Shan Bo also tried to stop her. Only then did she snort coldly and take a step back.
"Master Wan, I'm not here to take anything away from you, so there's no need to be nervous."
Xu Jiang walked up to Wan Sheng and Xi Zhi and bowed. "I apologize for my previous offense, but you know why I'm here, and you know how important Madam is to me. This concerns her life, so I have to ask for clarification."
Wansheng frowned and didn't say anything.
Xu Jiang looked at Xizhi, meeting her blank yet focused gaze, and asked softly, "The doctors all say that Madam is suffering from a heart disease. If there is a way to treat it, would you cure it for her? Or... do you want to cure her?"
Wan Sheng's breathing suddenly stagnated, and then became heavy. He suppressed the urge to roar, gnashing his teeth and saying, "The person has been seen, you should leave."
Xu Jiang stood there without moving.
Wan Sheng instructed his son, "Qingmiao, show the guests away."
Wan Qingmiao was somewhat bewildered, but he didn't want to go against his father's wishes, so he stepped forward and lightly extended his hand to stop Xu Jiang, apologetically saying, "Madam Xu, please forgive me for my poor hospitality this time. I will personally come to apologize to you another day."
Shan Bo saw her sending people away and knew that today was not a good time to talk again, so he stepped forward and said to Xu Jiang, "Miss, let's go back first and come back another day."
Wan Sheng said, "You don't need to come again another day. I have done what I promised you, and I hope you will remember what you promised me."
Xu Jiang said, "I will do what I promised you, but I will not sit idly by and watch my wife suffer from illness, nor will I allow you to let her die."
Xu Jiang looked at Xizhi. The distance allowed both of them to see each other's appearance more clearly.
Seeing that her face was extremely pale, Xu Jiang couldn't help but reach out to touch her face, but before he got close, Wan Sheng raised his hand and brushed it away.
He said stiffly, "Goodbye, everyone."
Xu Jiang looked at Xi Zhi deeply and said to her softly, "Madam, I am Xu Jiang. I will come to see you again."
Xizhi stared at her mouth, then opened it, but no sound came out.
"Girl, let's go." Shan Bo advised.
Xu Jiang bowed once more to Wan Sheng, then turned and walked out of the hall, looking back every few steps. Shan Bo and Liu Mei also bowed to Wan Sheng, then quickly followed.
"Father, I'll go see her off." Wan Qingmiao also followed with big strides, wanting to ask Xu Jiang about the situation, but suddenly he heard a scream from behind him.
"lady!"
He was about to turn around when he saw a figure passing by. He then looked over and saw his mother stumbling to the door, tightly grabbing Xu Jiang, who had already stepped out of the hall.
Xu Jiang staggered when she was pulled, and Liu Mei beside her quickly supported her. She turned around in surprise and saw that the person who pulled Xu Jiang was Madam Wan.
Xu Jiang stared blankly at Xizhi, only to see her eyes light up with life. Then she eagerly opened her mouth, like a fish thrown ashore, and after a long while, she squeezed out two hoarse words, "Don't... go."
Her tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.
