Seeing that everyone was alright, Jiu Nanxun and Jiang Shaoze left first, and Old Madam Mu also went back.
Since the person was still unconscious, Mu Jin stayed in Ye Mingshi's office playing games, while Maomao looked at the medical records stored there by Ye Mingshi.
Ye Mingshi looked aggrieved.
His bed for resting was taken over by Mu Jin, and the massage chair he had ordered was occupied by the cat, leaving him to sit on a cold bench, feeling very resentful.
"Ye Mingshi, can you please pay attention? You've been low on health so many times! I've used up all my health packs for you." Mu Jin reminded him. Ye Mingshi had become incredibly bad at the game since he hadn't played for a while.
Ye Mingshi, holding her phone, caught up with her teammate, humming, "It's too cold on the bench, I can't perform well. Let's switch positions, I'm sure I can do better."
Mu Jin simply said coldly, "Are you going to play with your hands or your butt?"
Ye Mingshi had absolutely no way to refute those words...
A while later, Jiu Yebai came over to inform Maomao that Grandpa Jiu had woken up.
The cat tossed aside the medical record and went to the ward.
When they reached the door, Jiu Yebai stopped. "I think I'd better not go in. It's kind of weird."
The person inside was his grandfather by blood, but they had never met and were complete strangers. Anyway, he had come today, which was enough.
His older brother is so easygoing, he didn't come.
The cat ignored him and pushed him inside.
Jiu Shiyi sat by the hospital bed, slowly peeling an apple.
Grandpa Jiu was resting with his eyes closed when he opened them and saw so many people. A glimmer of light appeared in his tired eyes. "Cat, cat."
The cat walked over, stood there looking at him, and simply said, "Don't worry about getting better."
Grandpa Jiu looked at the cat with delight, but then, as if remembering something sad, he let out a long sigh.
Jiu Shiyi said, "Grandpa, don't overthink it. Getting better is the most important thing right now."
Master Jiu was heavy-hearted. He thought this was the end of it all, but he never expected that he would wake up...
He wasn't too surprised that he had no feeling in his lower body; he had been prepared for it. However, facing certain things while fully conscious was still painful. He thought it would be better if he were dead.
However, when he looked at Jiu Shiyi, his grandson was just too pitiful.
Grandpa Jiu nodded slowly. He suddenly looked at Jiu Yebai and said, "You are... Jiu Yebai. You've grown up so much. You look much more robust than in the photos. You look a lot like your father when he was young."
"Hehe..." Jiu Yebai chuckled dryly, feeling rather awkward, as the grandfather and grandson didn't have much in common.
Grandpa Jiu looked closely at Jiu Yebai, still murmuring, "He really looks like him..."
As if looking at Jiu Zhongsheng, he sighed again when he thought of Jiu Zhongsheng.
Cat didn't want to see Grandpa Jiu looking so sighy, so she asked directly, "Grandpa Jiu, I have something to ask you. Don't get anxious, tell me slowly. What did Jiu Zhongnian want with you?"
Afraid of upsetting Old Master Jiu, Jiu Shiyi didn't ask him anything after he woke up.
As expected, Grandpa Jiu got a little anxious and agitated, but Jiu Shiyi quickly calmed him down, and Grandpa Jiu quickly regained his composure.
"A misfortune for our family..."
“That unfilial son Zhongnian, he can't even care about his own father and son, what can I expect from him? Originally, I would have just pretended that he didn't have a son, but I didn't expect that unfilial son to sell Xiaoyu's museum! I'm so angry…”
After Grandpa Jiu finished speaking, he still couldn't help but get excited.
Ye Mingshi advised, "You just got off the operating table, don't get angry anymore."
Grandpa Jiu closed his eyes and simply stopped talking.
The cat asked, "Who is Xiaoyu? What museum is she from?"
Jiu Shiyi finally spoke, “Xiaoyu is my grandmother. She was a senior engineer at the Academy of Military Sciences’ Institute of National Defense Engineering. She used her life’s knowledge and collection to build a private military museum, which is not open to the public. The museum is my grandmother’s legacy.”
If it were just the Jiu family's property, Old Master Jiu wouldn't need to be so concerned. However, it's his wife's inheritance! It's the only thing he has left to live on!
Even if he were to die, he would have no face to see his wife!
"Jiu Zhongnian is so poor? He's even sold off his family property?" Jiu Yebai couldn't help but exclaim. It really didn't sound like something a human would do.
Old Master Jiu gave a bitter smile. "I am still the major shareholder of the Jiu family company, but the second son is cowardly and doesn't know how to run a business. His shares were taken away by the third son long ago. The third son will never give him any money. I never expected that he would actually sell his mother's museum."
Jiu Yebai couldn't help but sigh, "What a weirdo."
Most importantly, after selling them all, you still have to tell Grandpa Jiu, which makes him so angry that he has a stroke.
This son isn't a son; he's a creditor.
Jiu Shiyi cut the peeled apple into pieces and fed one to Old Master Jiu. He calmly said:
"Grandpa, you're getting old, don't worry so much. Just focus on your recovery in the hospital. I'll bring Grandma's museum back."
Grandpa Jiu grasped Jiu Shiyi's hand and instructed, "You must get it back."
Jiu Shiyi: "Mm."
Grandpa Jiu was admitted to the hospital, but fortunately it was Ye Mingshi's hospital, so there was nothing to worry about.
They left after a while, letting Grandpa Jiu rest.
For a long time, Yixian appeared somewhat gloomy.
The cat asked him at the hospital entrance, "Where are you going?"
Jiu Shiyi said directly, "Go find Jiu Zhongnian and ask him who he sold the museum to. That's the fastest way."
Cat got into the driver's seat and let Jiu Shiyi get in the car.
"Ah Jin, you go ahead and do your thing, I'll go run an errand."
