Xia Weilan went to the hospital early in the morning. As soon as she entered, she saw that the old master was in good spirits.
Xia Weilan walked in and asked the doctor who was examining the patient, "How is my grandfather's health?"
"The old master is recovering well. He was just emotionally over - excited yesterday. Now he just needs to get some medicine and then he can be discharged from the hospital. Usually, he should keep calm and avoid overworking."
After the doctor left, Old Master Xia got out of bed and urged, "Since I can be discharged, let's pack up. I'm not used to staying in this hospital. It's more comfortable to go back home."
"Grandpa, eat your breakfast first." Xia Weilan put the food she was holding on the table and reached out to serve him a bowl.
"Steward, come and have breakfast with us. I made enough for three people." Xia Weilan greeted Steward Zhao. She regarded Steward Zhao as an elder.
At the door of the ward, Second Master Xia rushed to the hospital early in the morning to check on Old Master Xia's health. Unexpectedly, he heard laughter coming from the ward.
"Girl, I'm thinking of transferring the company to you earlier. What do you think? Anyway, the Xia family will belong to you sooner or later. The old mansion has already been transferred to your name. The company is counting on you to manage. Miss Ruolin doesn't have your ability." Old Master Xia said casually while eating.
"Grandpa, I'm still too young. Let me learn from you for a few years first." Xia Weilan didn't like the old master being in such a hurry. It was as if he was making last - minute arrangements. Her heart ached, and she quickly comforted him:
"Grandpa, the doctor also said that you're still in good health. There's no need to be in such a hurry."
Second Master Xia outside the door looked extremely ugly. He didn't expect that Old Master Xia was not only still in good health but also wanted to hand the company over to Xia Weilan.
Wouldn't that mean he would get nothing? It was simply outrageous.
Second Master Xia clenched his fists and turned around to walk outside.
No wonder he couldn't find the land deed after looking for it secretly several times. It had already been transferred to Xia Weilan.
After Xia Weilan finished her breakfast, she asked the steward to help the old master pack up, and she herself went to the lobby to get the medicine with the prescription the doctor had just written.
There were quite a few people getting medicine in the lobby. Xia Weilan queued up at the back and waited slowly. At this moment, she heard a familiar voice.
"Qingqing, you're still young. It's not good to keep this child. Just listen to me."
Xia Weilan turned her head and saw Ouyang Mingqi walking into the lobby with a young woman. The woman looked haggard, as if she had just been crying.
"I just can't bear it." Qingqing reached out to stroke her belly and kept walking, about to pass by Xia Weilan.
"It's okay. You'll have other children in the future." Ouyang Mingqi comforted her gently. But when he suddenly saw Xia Weilan, he stopped in his tracks.
"What's wrong?" Qingqing's voice still had a sob in it.
"Nothing. You go upstairs first. I'll come up soon." Ouyang Mingqi gently patted Qingqing's shoulder. Hearing this, Qingqing's face flashed with a trace of uneasiness, but she still took the elevator first.
When the elevator door closed, Ouyang Mingqi walked towards Xia Weilan.
"What's wrong with you? Are you sick?"
Xia Weilan had already withdrawn her gaze. Now she didn't even look at him.
She seemed to have seen this woman before. She was the daughter of a wealthy businessman. Anyway, she had seen her at a banquet. At that time, the woman was still glamorous and radiant, not as sad as she was now.
"My business has nothing to do with you!" Xia Weilan took another step forward. There was only one person left before it was her turn.
Unexpectedly, her wrist was suddenly grabbed. Ouyang Mingqi forced her to look up and made her see his anxious face: "I'm really concerned about you. What's wrong with you?"
"Heh," Xia Weilan slapped his hand away. "I'm fine now. But you, you'd better accompany your Qingqing well. You let your woman go for an abortion by herself? It really damages your great image."
Ouyang Mingqi paused for a moment and immediately explained, "She's not my woman. She's a friend's. He got into trouble himself and asked me to help him deal with it."
Xia Weilan frowned and just said, "Your friend is really heartless!"
Ouyang Mingqi was silent. After a while, he said, "Now can you answer my question? What are you doing here?"
Xia Weilan took another step forward. It was her turn. She handed over the prescription. The receptionist started to dispense the medicine in a business - like manner.
Ouyang Mingqi stood in front of Xia Weilan like a statue, which made Xia Weilan feel a bit annoyed. She knew that if she didn't answer, Ouyang Mingqi wouldn't leave. So she simply said:
"I'm getting medicine for my grandfather!"
Ouyang Mingqi heaved a sigh of relief.
Xia Weilan quickly got the medicine and walked away quickly, bypassing Ouyang Mingqi.
Just as Xia Weilan reached the corner, she found a woman standing there. The woman was dressed neatly, with her long hair carefully tied up behind her head in a meticulous way.
Xia Weilan was about to walk past the woman when unexpectedly the woman took a step forward and blocked her way:
"Miss Xia, I was sent by President Mo to protect you. My name is An Shan."
Xia Weilan then remembered that Mo Beichen had said last night that he would send someone to protect her, so she nodded.
An Shan was a mature beauty with a unique temperament and a special charm of a woman.
Just then, Ouyang Mingqi also walked towards the elevator here. An Shan asked Xia Weilan to go up first and then stopped Ouyang Mingqi.
Ouyang Mingqi squinted his eyes and said unhappily, "What are you doing!"
After seeing Xia Weilan's elevator go up, An Shan moved out of the way and said to Ouyang Mingqi, "Dangerous people are not allowed to get close to Miss Xia."
Ouyang Mingqi frowned and said, "You're meddling too much."
"Mr. Ouyang, our president asked me to tell you that if you have the ability, come and compete in the business world. We'll surely accompany you to the end." An Shan was calm and composed.
On the contrary, Ouyang Mingqi's face was extremely gloomy. He said grudgingly, "You're overthinking. I'm going to see my friend."
After saying that, Ouyang Mingqi turned around and walked in another direction.
An Shan took out her phone and reported the situation to Mo Beichen, then turned around and walked in the direction of Xia Weilan.
Xia Weilan returned to the ward. Seeing that the old master had already packed up, she and the steward took the old master out.
Until they got into the elevator, Xia Weilan didn't see An Shan again.
But Xia Weilan knew that An Shan should be following her at a proper distance.
Xia Weilan accompanied the old master back to the Xia family's old mansion and spent the whole afternoon there with him.
In the afternoon, the old master came out of the study with an angry look on his face and called the servant, "Who has been in my study?"
The servant immediately said respectfully, "Sir, Second Master came last night. He said he was here to get the clothes you needed. Did something go missing?"
"Humph! From now on, he's not allowed to enter the old mansion casually. Do you hear me?" The old master scolded and then returned to the study.
The cabinet in the study was now open. The things that were originally placed in order according to the old master's habit had been rearranged.
The old master returned to his seat and said angrily, "He's becoming more and more audacious!"
