The checkup in the morning was not too elaborate and it ended in about 40-odd minutes.
Si Yiyan was wearing a white coat as he exited the intensive care unit with a group of doctors. While walking, he also communicated and interacted with the other doctors in a plethora of foreign languages, handling them with ease and composure.
Clad in a white doctor’s coat, the young and handsome Si Yiyan stood out amongst the middle-aged doctors of different shapes and sizes. He was particularly eye-catching and he looked just like a saint. He also looked sexy and seductive with his slender body hidden beneath the coat.
Wen Xinya could not take her eyes off him at all.
White was a pure and sacred color that ought not to be stained. At the same time, it was also a color that would invoke endless imagination.
Upon sight of Si Yiyan wearing a white coat, Old Mr. Wen was reminded of the cold and aloof tone that Si Yiyan had while speaking to him over the phone last night. He sounded so austere that Old Mr. Wen dropped the idea of coming to the hospital. For some reason, he felt terrible.
Si Yiyan was the most outstanding man he had ever met in his life, but he somehow could not stand him.
He thinks I can’t tell, but I obviously know that he harbors designs on my granddaughter!
About five minutes later, Si Yiyan stopped talking to the doctors and walked towards her. “After a night of observation, Old Mr. Mo’s condition has become much more stable than yesterday. The doctors said that his condition is optimistic. You don’t have to worry.”
Waiting for news together with Wen Xinya, Old Mr. Wen heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Xinya, you’re finally at ease, eh?”
Wen Xinya had been feeling very nervous when the doctors were checking up on Old Mr. Mo.
Si Yiyan glanced at Old Mr. Wen and nodded to greet him before pulling Wen Xinya away and leaving.
Old Mr. Wen turned pale and he asked angrily, “Rascal, where are you taking my granddaughter?”
“Breakfast!” he answered calmly.
“Why do you have to get all touchy? Hurry and move your hand away.” Old Mr. Wen chided while glowering at Si Yiyan, who was holding onto Wen Xinya’s hand.
To his dismay, Wen Xinya allowed the rascal Si Yiyan to hold her hand without even resisting!
Si Yiyan ignored him.
“Um, Grandpa, he…” Wen Xinya retracted her hand guiltily, only to have Si Yiyan tighten his grip on her hand. At last, she had no choice but to stop struggling.
“Rascal, I told you to let go of my granddaughter’s hand, did you hear me!?!” Old Mr. Wen rebuked angrily while chasing after them. If it weren’t because of the fact that speaking loudly was not allowed in the hospital, he would have hit the roof and hollered in exasperation.
Wen Xinya tried to turn around to comfort her grandfather, only to be intimidated and stopped by Si Yiyan’s threatening gaze. She had no choice but to eat her words.
Si Yiyan pulled Wen Xinya into the VIP room after hearing Old Mr. Wen’s angry voice.
When Old Mr. Wen chased up to them, two bodyguards dressed in black showed up at the ward out of nowhere. They stood by the door with sullen faces and seemed to be guarding it, preventing anyone from entering.
Old Mr. Wen had no choice but to glare at the doors while anger grew within him.
At this moment, there was a sumptuous Chinese breakfast spread prepared by the hospital, consisting of exquisite crystal dumplings stuffed with shrimps, fragrant and tender soup dumplings, sweet and delicious custard buns…
Wen Xinya looked at the door and said, “You’re spiting Grandpa on purpose again. Didn’t I tell you not to provoke him unnecessarily?”
Whenever she saw Si Yiyan angering Old Mr. Wen, she would feel extremely guilty and remorseful. Si Yiyan was being overboard and she would always remind him to be kinder and more polite towards Old Mr. Wen. However, Si Yiyan would ignore her instructions.
“He glares at me and treats me harshly all the time. He also keeps his guard up against me, as if I’d snatch you away from him,” Si Yiyan said calmly with a tinge of tenderness in his voice while gazing at her with shiny eyes.
Wen Xinya felt extremely awkward.
Why is he staring at me with those sparkling and tender eyes!?!
Why does Si Yiyan sound so… um… aggrieved! He’s acting like a dignified child who is complaining to an adult after being mistreated.
What!?! This doesn’t seem right at all!
“He hates me and I hate him too!” Si Yiyan exclaimed self-righteously.
Is he acting coquettish?
Or are my eyes playing tricks on me?
So there’s a coquettish side to this vicious wolf too!?!
Wen Xinya was speechless!
Wen Xinya tried to reason things out with the recalcitrant child. “Grandpa is so old, you shouldn’t be so calculative with him! It’s not good to lock Grandpa outside, he’s going to be angry!”
Si Yiyan respected Old Mr. Mo greatly and would never dare to behave like this in front of him. However, it seemed to be a different case with Old Mr. Wen. Not only was he rude, he seemed to have completely disregarded Old Mr. Wen’s presence.
Old Mr. Wen was also often angst when Si Yiyan was around and he was not the intelligent and decisive Grandpa she knew.
The two of them seemed destined to be enemies.
“It’s alright. Even if he’s angry, he’ll only be angry at me, not you,” Si Yiyan said calmly while pulling Wen Xinya onto the couch.
“But…” Wen Xinya still felt that it was inappropriate to treat Old Mr. Wen that way.
“Here, open up… this is your favorite shrimp dumplings from Li Ji.” Si Yiyan picked up a shrimp dumpling with his chopsticks, dipped it in some sauce and fed it to Wen Xinya.
He often fed her when they were alone and hence, Wen Xinya did not mind it. She subconsciously opened her mouth and ate it.
The shrimp dumplings were perfectly sized and just enough to fit into her mouth. It was fresh and delicious.
“The dumplings are delicious, have some too!” Wen Xinya picked up a dumpling with her chopsticks and placed it in Si Yiyan’s mouth. Since Si Yiyan did not like having his food with sauces, she fed him a plain one.
After feeding each other for a while, they were done with half of the breakfast spread and Wen Xinya seemed to have forgotten about Old Mr. Wen completely.
Grandpa is going to cry if he finds out!
He definitely will!
Si Yiyan smirked triumphantly.
