"Lu Sidi, why did you specifically call Grandma and ask them to cause trouble at the main house?"
Sitting in the car, Lu Siqiao made a special call to Lu Sirou and scolded Lu Sidi.
Lu Sidi said urgently, clarifying, "Qiaowa, don't be angry. It was my dad who called me. I told him I was at my uncle's house, and that's how he found out. I didn't specifically tell them that my uncle's family was coming to Beijing. You've wronged me."
"Really? But Grandma said it was you who called her specifically and said a lot of things." Lu Siqiao sneered.
"..." Lu Sidi was speechless for a moment, then quickly realized what she meant and said, "Grandma, really, it was my dad who called."
Lu Siqiao was too lazy to waste words with her and said coldly, "Mind your own business. Also, don't bother contacting me again." Then she hung up the phone.
Qian Wenjie asked what happened.
Lu Siqiao rubbed her temples: "My second uncle's family are no good. They always try to take advantage of others. I hate people like that the most. But they are relatives, so I can't just send someone to beat them up. After all, he is my grandfather's son."
Qian Wenjie handed her a bottle of milk and said softly, "Every family has its own problems."
The two arrived at the villa hilltop area on Qianjin Road and watched as the automatic gate slowly opened. The Qian family's butler and servants were already waiting on the side.
“Wenhua, this is Qiaowa,” Qian Wenjie said softly, pointing to one of the slender girls.
Lu Siqiao judged the girl to be about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. Her face was slightly haggard, her eyes were gentle, and her temperament was otherworldly, as if she were untouched by worldly affairs.
"I've often heard my second brother mention you, but I never imagined you were so adorable." Qian Wenhua stepped forward and took Lu Siqiao's hand, speaking affectionately.
It also gave Lu Siqiao a sense of warmth and care, like being looked after by a kind older sister next door.
"Hello, Sister Wenhua," she greeted sweetly.
The three people entered the villa, chatting and laughing.
Chen Dongzhi came out and happened to see this scene.
"Oh, what a rare guest, Miss Fang Er, how are you?" He greeted Lu Siqiao casually.
Lu Siqiao didn't indulge him and gave him a dismissive glance.
This kind of opportunist is the most cautious of all.
"Brother Wenjie, please lead the way," she said to Qian Wenjie.
Chen Dongzhi called out to Qian Wenhua and said sarcastically, "Grandpa is not in good health. Don't let them bother you for too long, lest something happens and you blame him for not taking good care of him."
Qian Wenhua lowered his head and responded.
Seeing her timid and hesitant demeanor, Chen Dongzhi added, "Your second brother is a scoundrel; stay away from them."
Qian Wenhua straightened his back and said calmly, "My second brother cares about you. I know him better than you do."
"Yes, that's why you still can't forget him, and who are you trying to impress with that cold face all day?" Chen Dongzhi grabbed her chin and threatened, "Don't forget, I'm your husband."
Qian Wenhua remained silent.
He added, "Pack your things. My parents will be here this afternoon. Behave well then, otherwise, if you suffer any injustice, it's your own fault."
After saying that, he picked up the phone again, said something quickly, and left.
Qian Wenhua suppressed his disgust and went up to the second floor, only to see Lu Siqiao standing in the stairwell, having overheard quite a bit of what was going on.
"Jova, you, how did you get here?" she asked hurriedly, trying to compose herself.
Lu Siqiao took her hand and chuckled, "Brother Wenjie, go tell his grandfather first, and I'll go in later."
Qian Wenhua looked slightly embarrassed.
Lu Siqiao stood beside her and said calmly, "Sister Wenhua, you can get to know Sister Muyao when you have time. Her situation used to be similar to yours, but she broke free from her shackles and escaped. Actually, you can do it too."
“My second brother told me about her, but my situation is different. I was born into a wealthy family, and with great power comes great responsibility. The more attention Chen Dongzhi receives, the more insignificant my position becomes,” Qian Wenhua said painfully.
Back when he was just a young lad, he was always cautious and timid, but he treated her very well.
Qian Wenhua once thought she had found true love.
How ironic.
“You can also work and find your own value. When you stand higher than him, he can only look up to you and act superior, bossing you around,” Lu Siqiao said unwillingly.
Qian Wenhua simply shook his head: "It's easier said than done. My grandfather is sick, and I have to stay by his side. My older brother wouldn't agree to let me go out to work either."
Lu Siqiao smiled: "Once your grandfather recovers, you should go back to work. I heard from Brother Wenjie that you are good at painting and almost got a scholarship to study abroad back then, but you chose to switch careers and become a cook, which is a real pity. Why don't you open a training class? Besides studying on your own, you can also teach children in your spare time, killing two birds with one stone."
Qian Wenhua's eyes lit up for a moment, but then fell silent again, and he shook his head with a wry smile.
Qian Wenjie came out of the house and called Lu Siqiao in.
Lu Siqiao saw Old Master Qian on the bed. He was about seventy years old, with a full head of white hair and an oxygen mask in his mouth, as if he were asleep.
"How long has this been going on?" Qian Wenjie asked Qian Wenhua with some frustration. "I've called Grandpa for a long time, but he hasn't responded."
Qian Wenhua's eyes were red as she whispered, "Grandpa doesn't recognize people anymore, and he often doesn't wake up for a whole day. I'm afraid something might happen to him."
Qian Wenjie hurriedly looked at Lu Siqiao and asked nervously, "Qiaowa, do you have a solution to this situation?"
"Is it a sequela of a stroke?" Lu Siqiao asked.
Qian Wenjie nodded.
Lu Siqiao walked to the side and opened the backpack she brought with her, but actually opened the trading space to look for medicine that could cure this type of disease. She had to admit that she actually found it, but it would cost 2,000 points to exchange for a Brain-Boosting Life Water.
“Here, try this one.” She took out a bottle of pale yellow liquid, walked up to Old Master Qian, removed his mask, pried open his lips, and dripped the liquid into his throat.
"This little bit of medicine can cure my grandfather's illness?" Qian Wenjie's face was full of worry.
Lu Siqiao said confidently, "You just wait and see, the medicine won't take effect so quickly."
Upon hearing this, Qian Wenhua invited them over for lunch.
Lu Siqiao had just cut a piece of steak when the butler came to report that the old master had woken up.
Qian Wenjie excitedly spilled his wine and rushed over.
As you approach, you'll see Old Master Qian sitting on the bed, with the butler beside him talking to him.
"Grandpa!" Qian Wenjie rushed to him.
Qian Wenhua also stood aside, tears streaming down her face.
"I feel like I've slept for a long time." Old Master Qian let out a long sigh of relief and looked at Qian Wenjie, saying, "I heard that you did something big, haha, you truly are a man of the Qian family."
With red eyes, Qian Wenjie pushed Lu Siqiao in front of him and said earnestly, "Grandpa, you were able to wake up thanks to the divine doctor's medicine. This is Qiaowa, she is the divine doctor's apprentice."
"So you are Jova."
Unexpectedly, Old Master Qian knew Lu Siqiao.
