The Vice President’s mind flashed with the image of Xi Zuzi’s clear and beautiful face, which was so imposing one dared not look at it for too long.
He’s already fifty this year; even losing ten years of life would be worth it if it ant he could enjoy a few more years wielding power like it was nothing.
If it really cost him twenty years of life, he’d be buried up to his neck in the ground. He wasn’t brain-dead to make such a wish.
Could anyone really take what was said to a little girl seriously? It was like coaxing a child!
Feeling relieved, he glanced again at the frosted glass of the operating room, thinking to himself, "Could it be that the wish I made earlier actually ca true since the surgery hasn’t ended for so long?"
The bodyguard hurried over and reported in a low voice, "Vice President, rumors suddenly surfaced online saying the Old President’s surgery failed..."
"What? Today’s surgery is top secret, and I’m right outside the operating room. How could anyone outside know sothing I don’t?"
"Vice President, the rumors outside are very detailed, so much so that the hot search can’t suppress them. They say Mr. Bai made a mistake with the dication and enlisted the help of a dical College freshman without dical qualifications, worsening the Old President’s condition... Could the rumor be referring to that Miss Xi just now?"
The Vice President’s heart skipped a beat.
Initially, he didn’t take these rumors seriously, but the details were so vivid... he couldn’t help but pay attention: "What, the girl from earlier wasn’t here to visit a lover, but to treat an illness? Nonsense! Is she trying to kill my uncle?!"
He raised his voice righteously.
The bodyguard understood the cue: "We’ll imdiately find Mr. Bai to get to the bottom of this. How could he let a student practice dicine illegally? Was it done intentionally for profit and murder?"
"Wait," the Vice President let out a seasoned, sly smile, "Why look for Bai Fei. This surgery was suggested by Bao Gucheng, and any mistakes made are his responsibility. As a family mber, I demand to hold Bao Gucheng accountable right now!"
The loss of ten years of his life was certainly not in vain; these rumors ca at just the right ti. No wonder the operating room wasn’t opening, there was sothing fishy going on inside, and they feared we would find out.
He was going to expose this charade now and make sure Bao Gucheng couldn’t escape unscathed!
His facial expression changed effortlessly like a face-changing actor, quickly shifting to one full of sorrow and he shouted with raised fist:
"Family brothers and sisters, we’ve been deceived by Bao Gucheng! His evil intentions are reprehensible; he’s out for profit and murder. I want to accuse him and have him imprisoned for harming the Old President!"

Xi Zuzi returned to the racetrack as the torrential rain had completely stopped.
The blazing sun had evaporated a lot of the water on the track. After professional testing, the race could proceed normally.
Bai He saw her return and excitedly went up for a bear hug: "Dear Ancestor, you really kept your word and ca back to watch my third race, sob sob!"
"My sister’s words are golden, whatever she says cos true. Isn’t that right?"
"Zuzi is back, Sister Bai He, you can relax now. Go and join the team!"
Xi Rubao and Wu Qianman both thought Bai He was overly concerned; they were never worried that Xi Zuzi wouldn’t co back.
Bai He still nervously pursed her lips and coyly said: "Dear Ancestor, won’t you touch my forehead again? Please, please, give so luck, won’t you?"
Xi Rubao and Wu Qianman: "..." Those who didn’t know might have thought she was asking for a kiss! No wonder Mr. Bo doesn’t like the Bai siblings, they can be so coquettish, who can stand it?
Xi Zuzi extended her jade-like finger, gently brushing it over Bai He’s forehead: "Placed in a grave situation and then reborn."
Bai He’s heart skipped a beat.
These words were domineering but also very startling, weren’t they?
What does it an to be placed in a grave situation and then reborn? Could it be that dear Ancestor predicted that in this round, she would encounter so life-or-death situation?
