Xi Chenxiao immediately went forward to support Grandpa Xi. He was afraid that Grandpa Xi would not be able to take the blow and faint again. Even though Grandpa Xi usually treated him coldly, he was very concerned about this granddaughter of the Xi family. Xi Chenxiao said quickly,
“Grandpa, don’t panic. Director Mou already said that there’s a miracle-working doctor who has a 95% chance of success!”
Grandpa Xi was relieved when he heard this. As long as there was such a doctor, the Xi family would be able to hire him. He would agree to any request as long as someone could cure Xi Xiaoxiao; money was not a problem at all. Grandpa Xi replied,
“That’s great, that’s great.”
Grandma Xi had been quiet all this while. When she heard that the head of the research inst.i.tute was not confident, she was also fl.u.s.tered. Now that she heard Xi Chenxiao say this, she also heaved a sigh of relief. Grandma Xi asked,
!!
“Director Mou, then who is this person? Let’s get someone to invite him over now. My granddaughter can’t wait any longer!”
Director Mou looked at Su Jin when he heard this. The person was right in front of them, but Su Jin did not want him to say it. He was also in a difficult position, not knowing if he should tell or not. Su Jin felt Director Mou’s gaze and said with mixed feelings,
“Um, Grandpa Mou, let’s talk outside. The patient needs to rest.”
Su Jin knew that if she did not perform this surgery, Director Mou might not do it, so she wanted to go outside and discuss the case with Director Mou. She wanted to understand how difficult it would be to perform the surgery before she decided if she should reveal her ident.i.ty as the miracle-working doctor. Just as Director Mou was about to agree, Grandpa Xi yelled,
“What are you talking about? Can’t you see that we’re all begging for help to save your elder sister-in-law? You’re just a young girl who hasn’t even graduated from school. Go where you need to go. Don’t waste time here!”
Su Jin was speechless. If it weren’t for Xi Chenxiao, she would have turned and left immediately. Xi Chenxiao hugged Su Jin and looked at Grandpa Xi unhappily as he said,
“Grandpa, if it wasn’t for my wife, I wouldn’t have been able to find Director Mou. It was my wife who got Director Mou to come here. Please be nicer to my wife in future!”
Grandpa Xi did not believe it at all. After all, how could he not know who the head of the research inst.i.tute was? Why would he know such a young girl and even listened to her? Grandpa Xi face was dark as he scolded,
“So what? Just because she got Director Mou here, she should waste your sister’s precious time? By doing this, she has total disregard for your sister’s life. I say, this girl is not a good person!”
Su Jin’s face darkened when she heard this. She had never offended this old man. She did not know why, but the old man had been hostile towards her from the beginning. Could it be that he simply did not like her?
Xi Chenxiao’s expression darkened as well. When he went back to the old residence last time, he had already made it clear that Su Jin was his wife, but Grandpa was still like this. It was really too much. Xi Chenxiao replied coldly,
“This is my wife. Grandpa, please respect her.”
Grandpa Xi never thought that Su Jin was worthy. Besides, she and Xi Chenxiao had gotten their marriage certificate in secret. Xi Chenxiao was supposed to follow his plan and marry the Shangguan girl. Grandpa Xi was furious that Xi Chenxiao had the nerve to talk to him like that. He roared,
“Xi Chenxiao, if I don’t acknowledge her as my granddaughter-in-law, then she’s not!”
Director Mou frowned when he saw the two of them arguing over Su Jin. Su Jin was the only one who could save Xi Xiaoxiao now. If Su Jin got angry, Xi Xiaoxiao would be dead for sure. Director Mou interjected,
“Grandpa Xi, don’t be angry. You’ve misunderstood. I have something to discuss with your granddaughter-in-law. It’s extremely important!”
Grandpa Xi was stunned when he heard this, but he quickly came back to his senses. He didn’t know how this girl was so lucky to know a big shot like the head of the research inst.i.tute, but he still looked at Su Jin with disdain as he commented,
“She’s just a useless piece of trash. What important matter can you talk to her about? You don’t have to pay any attention to her!”
When Yu Haiyang heard someone say this about his G.o.ddess, he frowned. Su Jin had indeed caused plenty of misunderstandings before, but when it came to calling Su Jin a piece of trash, he was the first to disagree. Yu Haiyang frowned as he said,
“Um, Great-grandfather, do you have some misunderstanding? Who told you that Sister Su is a piece of trash?”
