Chapter 509: Fact Speaks Louder Than Words
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Director Mou looked at Grandpa Xi’s expression and felt sorry for Su Jin. He had no idea how this girl had offended Grandpa Xi. He looked at Su Jin kindly and said,
“Alright, I have to prepare for tomorrow’s surgery. Su Jin, you must be here before 1:30 pm tomorrow.”
Director Mou didn’t want to spend more time to convince Grandpa Xi. When the surgery was successful, the fact would speak for itself. When the time came, he could just tell everyone that Su Jin was the surgeon and everyone would believe him then.
Su Jin nodded when she heard Director Mou’s words. She would not be late for such a big matter; it was her duty. Furthermore, Xi Xiaoxiao’s illness could not be delayed any longer. She needed treatment as soon as possible. Director Mou saw Su Jin nod in agreement and said with a serious expression,
“Also, I’ll send you information about Xi Xiaoxiao’s illness. You’d better do your homework tonight. Do you understand?”
!!
Su Jin agreed with a serious expression on her face too. Xi Xiaoxiao’s brain tumor was not only big, but its location was also a little tricky. This surgery had to be done well. If not, there was no telling what would happen to Xi Xiaoxiao in future. Even the doctors who partic.i.p.ated in the surgery would face the consequences. After all, the Xi family was very powerful, so they had to be extra careful.
That night, after Su Jin returned to the manor and had her dinner, she immediately went up to her bedroom to receive the information Director Mou sent her, including the video. Usually, after Xi Chenxiao had his dinner, he would go back to his study to deal with company matters. After all, there were so many subsidiaries under Xi Corporation. If he didn’t manage these subsidiaries well, there was a high chance that problems would arise at Xi Corporation. Xi Chenxiao had always been very conscientious about work but since he had Su Jin, his ambitions to grow Xi Corporation had changed significantly.
A lot more attention was given to Su Jin now. Xi Chenxiao only spent ten minutes to deal with company matters and handed the rest over to Xi Shi. He then turned off his computer and rushed back to his bedroom.
When Su Jin heard the bedroom door open, she closed her laptop immediately. She was very surprised to see Xi Chenxiao, who has come back way early today. He’s usually still busy with work at this time. Su Jin asked guiltily,
“Boss, why are you back so early?”
Xi Chenxiao saw Su Jin’s reaction and got even more suspicious. He would like to see today if Su Jin was a genius or the mysterious person that Director Mou talked about. He smiled faintly and asked,
“Girl, what are you doing? Why do you look so guilty?”
Su Jin immediately sat up straight when she heard this. Her expression was a little awkward. She did not expect Xi Chenxiao to come back so early. How would she be caught otherwise? Su Jin coughed twice to cover up her awkwardness before she replied,
“Not at all. You didn’t say anything when you came in. I was startled by you.”
Xi Chenxiao walked to Su Jin’s side. He wanted to take her laptop to take a look when she’s not paying attention, but just as he reached out, Su Jin immediately s.n.a.t.c.hed her laptop back and looked at Xi Chenxiao.
“Boss, why are you taking my laptop?”
Xi Chenxiao’s eyes were doubtful. He looked at the guarded Su Jin and smiled. He would find out sooner or later anyway; it didn’t really matter if he didn’t find out now. Xi Chenxiao moved closer to Su Jin and said next to her ear,
“Girl, it’s already very late. We should go to bed!”
When Su Jin heard this, she quickly looked at the time on Xi Chenxiao’s wrist.w.a.tch and realized that it was still quite early. What was wrong with the demon king? In the past after dinner, he would work late into the night before he came back to the bedroom. Su Jin looked at Xi Chenxiao in confusion and said,
“It’s only seven o’clock, and it’s way too early for bed! Besides, have you finished your work? You are usually not back before eleven!”
Xi Chenxiao’s eyes flashed with desire as he stared at Su Jin longingly. In the past, he had worked late because he was afraid that he would not be able to control himself when he came back and hurt the baby. But now he need not be afraid anymore. Of course, he would come back to the bedroom earlier. Xi Chenxiao said to Su Jin,
“Girl, the past is the past, but it’s different now, so it’s better for us to rest early, right?”
