"Father, don't worry! I can still tell the difference between the important and the unimportant. Besides, she knew I was getting engaged and took the initiative to avoid suspicion and rejected my invitations several times. If I hadn't accidentally run into her on a medical visit this time, I might have been in real danger."
At this time, Zhang Xuetao became more inclined towards Yun Siyu because of her understanding.
“I asked her to make the call. She must have made sure that the area was safe before contacting home. In order to avoid suspicion, she did not return to the Zheng family because she did not want to embarrass me.
Before this, she didn't even know that I was your son, and just thought of me as an ordinary young man."
Zhang Fenglin heard his son's tone, which was obviously good for the other party. He didn't show it on his face, but he had some thoughts in his heart. He didn't blindly sing against his son, but smiled and said:
"Hearing what you said, this is a good girl. It was purely accidental that we met you. This time, she saved you again. We can't not express our gratitude. You are injured and it is inconvenient for you to move. I will arrange for the housekeeper to send her some things first, and then see how to help her improve her working environment. What do you think?"
"Father, don't scare her or make a big fuss. Siyu didn't save me for anything in return. This will only embarrass her. It's better to keep a low profile. I'll thank her in person when my injury is better."
Zhang Xuetao said as a matter of course.
"Okay, you are friends, I won't interfere with how you want to thank them, but before your injury recovers, our Zhang family must show some appreciation. Otherwise, if we do nothing, people will think you are ungrateful. It's not appropriate to save someone's life and then disappear without a word."
Zhang Fenglin said directly.
"Father is right. Then you can arrange for someone to express gratitude on behalf of the Zhang family first, and then thank me in person after I recover. This will be more sincere."
"Well, my son is getting more and more stable in doing things now."
After praising his son, Zhang Fenglin let his tired-looking son rest first and left the bedroom.
The moment he turned around, Zhang Fenglin's expression changed. He went to his study and directly ordered:
"Butler, check this Yun Siyu that the young master mentioned."
"Yes, Marshal, do we need to give her a thank-you gift?"
"Of course we have to give her a gift. We can't let Taoer think that we don't value this female nurse. Once you find out more, I'll think about a suitable thank-you gift."
"yes!"
As soon as the two of them finished talking, the doorman came to report that Miss Duan had arrived.
"Please ask her to come in."
Lianyi wore a light purple dress today and brought Ziyuan to the Zhang family's residence in NN City. Seeing that it was Zhang Fenglin waiting for her, she was slightly surprised and then greeted him politely:
"Hello, Uncle Zhang!"
"Lianyi is here! Are you here to look for Xuetao?"
"Yes, uncle. We had originally agreed to try on the dress tomorrow, but I was afraid that we would be too rushed and would not have enough time to modify it if something was not suitable, so I wanted to make an appointment today. I came to find Xuetao. Is he not here? I called him last night but he did not return my call."
Ripple said somewhat uncertainly.
"Hey! It's not a big deal. I wanted to keep it a secret from you. But since you're here, I'll tell you on my own initiative to prevent you from making blind guesses and hurting the relationship between you two."
Zhang Fenglin pretended to be helpless and said.
"What's the matter, Brother Xuetao?"
"He was ambushed last night and was shot. He just passed the critical period this morning and just took medicine and went to bed."
"What?"
Lian Yi pretended to be startled, then her face turned pale instantly, she stood up and said anxiously:
"Where is Brother Xuetao? I want to go see him and never disturb his rest."
"I'll ask the butler to take you there."
Lianyi pretended to be a little weak in the knees, and Ziyuan immediately took two steps forward, supported her arm, and then followed the housekeeper to Zhang Xuetao's bedroom.
Looking at Zhang Xuetao who was already fast asleep, Lianyi tiptoed over and gently touched his hand, and her eyes immediately turned red.
Then she took the opportunity to feel the man's pulse. His pulse was strong but a little slow. It was obvious that he was sleeping soundly. What he said about being out of danger was all a lie.
Lianyi was sure that the other person was okay, so she pretended to be sad, held the other person's hand, and wiped her tears for a while. Then she was helped out of the bedroom by Ziyuan. Then she said goodbye with red eyes and said that she would go back and tell her father that he must catch the murderer who hurt Xuetao's brother.
Lianyi and his party left the Zhang family residence. An hour later, a car carrying gifts and medicinal herbs arrived at the Zhang family's door.
Zhang Fenglin was very satisfied with the Duan family's statement. He also believed that someone wanted to destroy the marriage between the two parties. If his son really died in Duan Zongqing's territory, he would definitely turn against the other party. The person who acted secretly wanted to kill two birds with one stone, killing someone and making the two of them fight against each other, which would also make the Xia Kingdom more chaotic.
Afterwards, the situation in NN city became tense. Checks in and out of the city became stricter. There were also many people in plain clothes running around in the alleys, investigating suspicious persons. For a while, the situation was tense and everyone spoke more cautiously.
Yun Siyu had no idea what was happening in the outside world. After she had a good sleep and hurriedly ate dinner, she went to take over her shift. The nurse on duty was in a hurry to get off work, so the two of them exchanged a few brief words and the other left.
After that, Yun Siyu went to work with peace of mind. It was not until after ten o'clock in the evening, when the hospital was quiet, that Butler Zhang brought people to find Yun Siyu.
"Hello, are you Nurse Yun Siyu?"
"That's me. Sir, do you need a consultation? I'll call a doctor for you."
Yun Siyu had never met Butler Zhang, so she spoke in a businesslike manner.
"No need, I'm the Zhang family's housekeeper, and I came here specially to see you today."
Butler Zhang said politely.
Yun Siyu's eyes flashed, and she knew the other party's purpose, but she still said calmly:
"Butler Zhang, I'm at work and can't be away for too long. Please keep your words short."
Then he led the person into the consulting room next door.
"The Marshal ordered us to send a thank you gift to thank you for saving the young master when he was in the most dangerous time."
Then the butler waved his hand, and a small box was placed on the table in front of Yun Siyu. When it was opened, it was filled with gold bars.
Yun Siyu frowned, then said calmly:
"Thank you for your kindness, Marshal. I saved Master Zhang because we knew each other before. I couldn't just stand by and watch him die. And I didn't save him for money."
"If Nurse Yun said so, can I understand that you don't accept the thank-you gift just because you want the young master to owe you a favor, and you are doing it for the young master."
Butler Zhang said bluntly.
"you"
Yun Siyu was furious, then took a deep breath and said in a cold voice:
"Butler Zhang, I know your young master is going to marry into the Duan family, and I have no intention of disrupting it, let alone pestering Young Master Zhang. Since you have said so much, I will accept this thank you gift.
I will leave NN City in two days and will not be a nuisance to you. I hope you will show some mercy."
