Chapter 91 Avoiding the Meeting
After realizing that he had been tricked by her, Si Yanxiao's eyes narrowed. He was about to reprimand her sternly, but he was speechless for a moment and did not know what to say.
Jiang Ran acted as if she hadn't seen him and continued, "It's all I should do, no need to thank me."
Upon hearing this, Si Yanxiao's pupils suddenly contracted, and a hint of anger appeared in his eyes as he looked at Jiang Ran.
Good...that's really great!
He had never seen such a shameless person before!
"Jiang, Ran!"
Every word he uttered was filled with anger!
"I am here."
Jiang Ran curled her lips into a smirk, clearly showing a hint of provocation. Seeing the man in front of her humiliated made her feel great.
"Don't forget we're still husband and wife. As long as this relationship exists, I'll still be around you every day."
As she spoke, her gaze fell on the man's legs before she spoke with a meaningful tone: "I advise you to put away this impotent rage and heal your lower body first."
After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave when he heard Si Yanxiao's voice behind him.
"Wait!" the angry man said coldly, his hawk-like eyes sharp as knives.
This woman dares to be so arrogant now only because she is a twin. Otherwise, given her status, how could she possibly have entered the Si family?
If he hadn't been in a coma, the old man wouldn't have made the first move, allowing her to bear two children for the Si family.
Jiang Ran slowly turned around: "Is there anything else?"
Si Yanxiao looked up at her and said coldly, "I've never seen a woman like you before."
Then, she changed the subject: "I know why you did this, but don't think that having my child means you can do whatever you want."
There was a hint of warning in her words, but Jiang Ran didn't care at all.
She raised an eyebrow slightly and replied with a smile, "Sorry, it's too late. What's the use of saying this now?"
"You!" Si Yanxiao was so angry at her indifferent attitude that he was about to speak when he heard her voice slowly coming over.
"Instead of targeting me, you should spend more time with your child."
As she spoke, Jiang Ran paused slightly, a hint of hesitation flashing across her face. After a moment's hesitation, she continued, "They have high expectations for you..."
Having said that, he ignored Si Yanxiao's expression and turned to leave.
After hearing the door close, Si Yanxiao leaned back on the bed, his brows furrowed, and stared blankly into space.
child……
When this topic was brought up, a slight flutter of excitement flashed through Si Yanxiao's heart, but what followed was more of aversion.
He had fantasized about such a scenario, but that was only limited to the fact that the child was conceived by his beloved and that the two of them took good care of it.
He had only been in a coma for six years when he woke up to find out he had two children, and that he hadn't been there for them at all during their childhood, so he had no feelings for them whatsoever.
This mandatory arrangement even made him feel quite disgusted.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a surge of irritation, so he immediately called the butler up and asked about their recent situation.
The butler, of course, answered all questions without reservation, reporting the latest news from the side.
"Already discharged from the hospital?" Si Yanxiao frowned slightly.
"Hmm." The butler nodded and replied, "The hospital just called, sir. I suppose the young master is anxious to come back to see you. What a filial son."
The butler spoke highly of the two, unaware that Si Yanxiao's mind was in turmoil.
He showed no outward expression, but simply said, "Help me find a hospital for rehabilitation and recuperation."
"Don't you do rehabilitation at home? Dr. Zhou comes every week..." the housekeeper asked, looking puzzled.
Si Yanxiao shook his head slightly: "I have my own considerations. Go and do it."
He hadn't figured out how to face the two of them yet, but he couldn't keep avoiding them, so he could only use physical discomfort as an excuse to try to avoid contact.
"Okay." The butler nodded slightly and then left.
Although Si Zuochen did not agree to Si Youlin's idea, it is clear that the father's presence is still very necessary.
So, full of anticipation, he rushed back from the hospital. The housekeeper came out to meet him and saw that he was pale and looked weak and powerless.
She couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache: "Young Master, why are you in such a hurry to come back?"
Si Zuochen waved his hand and chuckled softly, "It's alright, where's Daddy?"
The butler pursed his lips, a hint of apology flashing across his face: "You've come at an inopportune time; the master has just retired for the night."
Then she quickly added, "But if you go up there, I'm sure he'll be very happy."
Si Zuochen looked up at the second floor, a hint of disappointment flashing across his face, but he still shook his head.
"No need. In that case, I won't go up and disturb him. Just let me know when he wakes up."
this……
The butler looked somewhat embarrassed, but still stammered and said in a deep voice, "Young Master, the Master is very weak and may not be able to see anyone in the near future."
Although the words were phrased tactfully, Si Zuochen understood the unspoken meaning. A trace of sadness flashed in his eyes as he looked up. The door seemed to separate the inside from the outside.
She closed her eyes briefly and replied softly, "Okay, I understand."
"Thank you for taking such good care of me."
The butler repeatedly replied, "It's my duty, and it's what I should do."
Si Zuochen nodded and turned to leave.
Forcing himself to suppress his disappointment, Si Zuochen returned to his room, only to find Si Youlin standing beside him, indignantly asking, "What's wrong with Daddy? Doesn't he want to see you at all?"
Listening to his accusations, Si Zuochen lowered his eyes, but his mind was elsewhere. He could more or less guess the reason why his father was deliberately avoiding him, but he couldn't be sure.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Si Youlin went to open it and saw Jiang Ran standing outside.
His expression instantly hardened, a hint of displeasure appearing on his face, and he coldly scoffed, "What are you doing here?"
Jiang Ran raised an eyebrow and lifted the Chinese medicine in her hand: "Deliver the medicine."
Delivering medicine?
A hint of surprise flashed in Si Youlin's eyes, but thinking of his older brother who still needed to be taken care of, and considering that his grandfather's previous treatment had indeed been effective, he reluctantly stepped aside to let her into the room.
Si Zuochen looked up and saw the person who had arrived. His expression was exactly the same as Si Youlin's just now, showing disgust.
Jiang Ran acted as if she hadn't seen him, and handed the medicine to him directly. Seeing a hint of doubt flash in his eyes, she explained.
"This medicine is good for your health."
Si Zuochen was taken aback upon hearing this, somewhat surprised.
He knew she was an expert in traditional Chinese medicine, so this bowl of medicine must have been made by her.
But why would she go to the trouble of brewing medicine specifically for herself? What was her intention?
Thinking of all the things she had done before, he frowned slightly, thinking that she was deliberately trying to please him again.
She sneered, "What? Trying to curry favor and plead for your lover again?"
Jiang Ran frowned upon hearing his words and said coldly, "Keep your filthy thoughts to yourself. You don't appreciate kindness."
"A good person?" Si Zuochen scoffed, took the medicine from Jiang Ran's hand, and with a flick of his wrist, poured it down.
Seeing this, Jiang Ran looked displeased, her eyes filled with a hint of coldness, but she did not stop it.
Si Zuochen placed the empty bowl on the table, a look of disdain on his face: "You don't need to pretend to be a good person here."
"go out!"
Jiang Ran looked at him coldly and sneered, "Is that all you've got?"
Si Zuochen was taken aback by her words and didn't understand.
Then she spoke again, saying, "Since you want to play, fine, I'll play along to the end."
After saying that, he took out his phone and sent a message to Lin Yu. A moment later, Lin Yu appeared outside the door with a new bowl of medicine.
"You can go down now." Jiang Ran reached out and took it.
Lin Yu nodded slightly, then turned and left.
As Si Zuochen watched Jiang Ran gradually approach him, a bad premonition flashed through his heart.
As expected, Jiang Ran walked straight up to him without consulting him, grabbed his chin, and was about to pour the whole thing into his mouth.
Just as Si Youlin was about to step forward, he heard Jiang Ran say coldly, "If you really care about your brother, then don't interfere!"
Upon hearing this, Si Youlin paused, thus missing the best opportunity.
She only released him after the bowl was empty of medicine. Si Zuochen, freed from his restraints, coughed violently as the bitter taste of the Chinese medicine caused a wave of acidity in his stomach.
Si Youlin quickly stepped forward to pat his back to relieve his discomfort.
Si Zuochen looked up at Jiang Ran, his eyes filled with hostility. He was about to reprimand her harshly when Jiang Ran spoke first, saying, "I advise you to behave yourself. This is all for your health."
"Don't worry your grandfather."
Mentioning Old Master Si, Si Zuochen pursed his lips, his expression softening slightly.
He knew that good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease, but Jiang Ran's actions were too forceful for him to accept.
