“It’s a doctor’s duty.” Jiang Ning said calmly, handing the clothes the maid brought to Xilia. “You should be almost recovered by now. Go to the bathroom and clean yourself up. Go out this way; the people in the banquet hall won’t see you.”
Seria took the clothes, her head down, her expression complicated.
Jiang Ning continued, "Also, all the staff present have signed confidentiality agreements with our Si family, so you don't need to worry about what happened tonight getting out."
As for the guests, because Jiang Ning and the Si family brothers reacted quickly, they saw almost nothing due to the red ribbon blocking their view. With the clever explanation from the eight uncles and aunts of the Si family, everyone thought that Xilia was cooperating with Jiang Ning to play some interactive game on stage.
Cyril nodded, took the clothes, and, with Jennifer's cover, crawled out from under the red silk.
The Si family had already arranged for servants to meet them. Upon seeing Celia and Jennifer come out, they immediately went to greet them. "Miss Ryan, please come this way."
About half an hour later, Celia changed into a new dress and reappeared in the banquet hall.
Radiant with health.
It was as if none of that had just happened.
The banquet hall remained as lively as before.
Seeing this, Xilia breathed a sigh of relief, picked up her wine glass, walked up to Jiang Ning, and solemnly said, "Miss Shi, I'd like to toast you!"
Jiang Ning also picked up her glass. "Thank you."
The clinking of the wine glasses produced a pleasant sound.
Just as Xilia was about to drink the red wine in her glass, Jiang Ning stopped her, picked up a stemmed glass, and said with a smile, "Girls should drink less alcohol. You should drink sparkling water like me."
Seria's current condition is not suitable for drinking alcohol.
Jiang Ning is a doctor, so naturally she has to be responsible for her patients.
Furthermore...
After all, she had gone to great lengths to save Cyria. If she were to cause further problems because of drinking, wouldn't that be a case of losing more than she gained?
Seria put down her red wine and took the sparkling water Jiang Ning handed her. "Okay."
After finishing her sparkling water, Celia poured herself another glass. This time, she walked up to Madam Si and said, "Madam, I'd like to offer you a toast."
Madam Si picked up her glass of red wine.
Immediately afterwards, Xilia took her glass and went to toast Si's eight uncles and aunts, and then Si's thirteen brothers.
There were quite a few people, but Celia didn't mind the trouble and toasted each of them one by one.
The other guests were stunned by what they saw.
That's Celia Lane!
The nobles of P country.
Most importantly, the Ryan family had been kind to Mr. Si, so over the years, the Si family had always treated the Ryan family with utmost respect. Even though the Si family had become the leading family in Hong Kong, they still felt grateful to the Ryan family.
Whenever and wherever someone from the Ryan family comes to the Si family, they are always treated as honored guests!
The Ryan family, relying on their noble status and their past favors to the Si family, always acted as benefactors in front of the Si family and never gave them any face.
This is the first time that someone like Xilia has ever toasted a member of the Si family!
"What game did Miss Shi play with Miss Ryan? It made Miss Ryan's attitude change so drastically!"
"I guess Miss Shi won over Miss Ryan with her personal charm! After all, Miss Shi is the first person besides Miss Ryan who was able to unlock the life force."
"Yes, yes, that's what you call mutual appreciation."
"......"
The banquet did not come to a successful conclusion until 9 p.m.
Jiang Ning found Xiliya and handed her a prescription. "This prescription, if you drink it for half a month, will cure your postpartum urinary incontinence and epilepsy."
Siriya took the prescription. "Can my illness really be cured?"
Whether it's epilepsy or postpartum urinary incontinence, these are nightmares that plague Cyril.
Epilepsy used to be preventable.
But now, the frequency of the disease is increasing.
Urinary incontinence is even more terrifying!
Because urinary incontinence occurs without warning, just like menstruation; bending over, standing up, or even sneezing can all cause urinary incontinence.
"Yes, I'm 80% sure."
Xilia clutched the prescription in her hand, looked at Jiang Ning, her eyes slightly red, "Why...why did you help me?"
"Don't you dislike me? Besides, I've hurt you before."
During the epileptic seizure, Celia was conscious.
She knows every single detail.
The moment she fell to the ground, she thought she was finished. She thought Jiang Ning would take this opportunity to take revenge on her, and that she would definitely be on the front page of tomorrow's international news.
Having a child out of wedlock.
Postpartum urinary incontinence.
He has epilepsy!
Cyril couldn't imagine what she would face if such news made the front page.
But Jiang Ning didn't.
Jiang Ning not only didn't, but actually protected her privacy very well.
In Celia's eyes, this was more important than saving her life.
Jiang Ning looked at Xiliya and slowly said, "I don't like you."
"But women's suffering should never be a laughing stock at the dinner table, much less be made into entertainment! I'm not helping you, I'm just helping an innocent mother."
