"You claim to be looking for a divine physician to save the elder, but who knows if you are not plotting some sinister scheme to harm him? I have come to the old residence today to prevent your conspiracy from succeeding," Xiao Cuiying said with a cold snort.
Just then, several bodyguards entered from outside carrying luggage.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Defu asked.
"From now on, I have decided to stay in the old residence!"
Xiao Cuiying declared, "I will protect the elder's safety at all times. As long as I am here, no one will be able to approach or plot against the elder."
"You..."
Xiao Defu was furious.
If Xiao Cuiying stayed in the old residence, the elder could not be treated.
In this way, all plans would be in vain.
"All of you, get out! I don't want to see you!"
After speaking, Xiao Cuiying walked straight upstairs.
Xiao Defu tried to follow, but was blocked by the bodyguards Xiao Cuiying had brought.
Xiao Defu was extremely angered.
"Dad, Auntie is going too far. I'll go call for people to teach these bodyguards a lesson. Then we'll rush in, tie up Auntie, and throw her out of the old residence!" Xiao Wenbin said.
"Don't be rash!" Xiao Defu stopped him.
"Dad, if we don't get rid of Auntie, how can we treat the elder?" Xiao Wenbin frowned.
"We have to think of a way slowly!"
Xiao Defu frowned and said, "You know your aunt's temper. If we confront her forcefully, she will persist stubbornly. Such a troublesome person is best avoided. Otherwise, it will lead to unforeseen complications."
Xiao Wenbin's face was full of unwillingness.
"Xiao Jianren, we are in the same boat now. If Auntie doesn't leave, neither Jiang Yi nor Divine Physician Yan can treat the elder. Why don't we join forces and drive Auntie away?" Xiao Wenbin said to Xiao Jianren.
"I will not join forces with you!"
Xiao Jianren said coldly.
"If you don't want to join forces, that's fine too!"
A strange smile appeared on Xiao Jianren's face.
"How about this, let's make a bet. Whoever drives Auntie away first will have their divine physician treat the elder first." Su Dan Novel Network
"This is a good idea, I agree!" Xiao Jianren agreed.
Seeing that there was nothing interesting to do by staying, the crowd left the old residence one after another.
Finally, only Xiao Jianren and Xiao Wenbin remained among the Xiao family members.
"Divine Physician Yan, you won't mind us staying in the old residence first, will you?" Xiao Wenbin said to Divine Physician Yan.
"Of course, I don't mind. If that's the case, then I'll stay here!"
Divine Physician Yan agreed.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wenbin immediately called a servant and asked them to clean up a courtyard.
Afterward, Xiao Wenbin led Divine Physician Yan away from the hall.
Xiao Jianren frowned.
"In that case, let's stay here too!"
Xiao Jianren said to Jiang Yi, "If we leave, wouldn't that be too easy for Xiao Wenbin? We won't leave until the elder's illness is cured! I'll have the servants clean up a courtyard later."
"What about the hospital matters?" Jiang Yi asked.
"Hospital matters are trivial. Curing the elder's illness is the priority. Don't you understand such a simple logic?" Xiao Jianren said.
"I understand!"
Jiang Yi smiled slightly.
Jiang Yi understood everything. The reason he asked the question just now was only to test Xiao Jianren and see if he had the resolve.
"She cannot stay here!"
Xiao Jianren pointed at Shen Lu and said.
"Mm!"
Jiang Yi nodded and said to Shen Lu, "You should go back!"
"Yes!"
Shen Lu replied and left the Xiao family's old residence.
By evening, Xiao Jianren had already sent people to clean up the small courtyard behind, and also bought a lot of furniture.
It was clear that he intended to play a war of attrition with Xiao Cuiying and the others.
In order to become the head of the Xiao family, Xiao Jianren had gone all out.
In the evening, Jiang Yi left the small courtyard and went straight to the front courtyard.
Jiang Yi intended to test Xiao Cuiying and see her true intentions.
Perhaps Xiao Cuiying would have significant value for future use.
As soon as he reached the front courtyard, he suddenly heard voices from the hall, which sounded like Xiao Cuiying and Divine Physician Yan.
Jiang Yi was taken aback.
How did they end up together?
Did they know each other?
Jiang Yi walked to the window of the hall and peeked inside. Indeed, he saw Xiao Cuiying and Divine Physician Yan talking.
"Madam Xiao, Xiao Wenbin genuinely wants me to treat Elder Xiao this time. Why don't you let me try? I assure you, I will cure Elder Xiao!" Divine Physician Yan said to Xiao Cuiying.
"It was Xiao Wenbin who sent you, wasn't it!"
Xiao Cuiying sneered.
Upon hearing this, Divine Physician Yan was stunned.
"I know very well what your intentions are!"
Xiao Cuiying said coldly, "I advise you to give up on this idea. As long as I'm here, no one will be able to plot against the elder."
"Madam Xiao, we genuinely want to save Elder Xiao. I can swear to it," Divine Physician Yan said.
"Swearing is useless!"
Xiao Cuiying took a sip of tea and said indifferently, "I'm tired, you can leave now."
Hearing this, Divine Physician Yan had no choice but to get up and leave the hall.
After Divine Physician Yan left, Jiang Yi walked directly into the hall.
Seeing Jiang Yi arrive, Xiao Cuiying sneered.
"What? Are you also here to persuade me?"
Xiao Cuiying sneered, "You all should give up on this idea! Even if you talk until the sky turns blue, I will never let you treat the elder. I am very aware of your conspiracy, and you cannot hide it from me."
"You are mistaken! I am not here to persuade you." Jiang Yi said.
"This is interesting!"
Xiao Cuiying snorted, "Since you are not here to persuade me, then what are you here for?"
"I just want to tell Madam Xiao something. You can distrust anyone, but you must trust me." Jiang Yi said.
"Why?" Xiao Cuiying asked coldly.
"More than twenty years ago, Elder Xiao secretly sent away an infant. This infant was not an ordinary person; she was also a member of your Xiao family. Everyone thought she had died, but she is still alive and well." Jiang Yi said.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Cuiying's expression immediately changed.
But soon, Xiao Cuiying's expression returned to calm.
"She is my niece, but she died long ago!"
Xiao Cuiying said faintly, "You cannot deceive me with such tricks. Xiao Jianren is not a good person, and since you are his person, you are not a good person either."
Jiang Yi was somewhat speechless.
Xiao Cuiying actually didn't believe him.
"Madam Xiao, I am indeed Xiao Jianren's person, but some things are not as you think."
Jiang Yi looked at Xiao Cuiying and said, "My purpose in coming to your Xiao family is only to save Elder Xiao. When Elder Xiao wakes up, everything will be revealed!"
After speaking, Jiang Yi got up and walked out of the hall.
