Capítulo 1318: Chapter 1318: Lotus Residence, Cohabitation Begins!
“Divine Doctor Ye, haha, I have a sowhat unreasonable request, please don’t laugh at an old man for fearing death! I would like to invite you to stay at my ho for a while. Although my health has temporarily improved, I don’t know when it might relapse. Having you here personally would put my mind at ease,” Xu Shichang said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan didn’t think much of it.
Nobody knows Xu Shichang’s health better than him. At his age, anything can happen, so his concern is quite reasonable.
Having saved soone all the way, Ye Xuan nodded straightforwardly and said, “No problem!”
Seeing the other party agree, the old man smiled even happier: “In that case, I thank Divine Doctor Ye! In the coming days, why not stay at Furong Pavilion, which is closer to .”
“Alright, I’ll let you arrange everything, Old Sir.”
Ye Xuan nodded with a smile, not particular about where he stayed.
But he was a bit puzzled as after the old man spoke, everyone in the ward looked at him strangely, especially Xu Lingyue, whose face flushed red, leaving Ye Xuan utterly bewildered!
What the heck is going on? Is there sothing wrong…
After a while, Xu Lingyue gathered her courage and quietly said, “Brother Ye Xuan, Furong Pavilion… is where I live.”
What?
Ye Xuan was dumbfounded, standing there in a daze, unable to wrap his head around it.
What does the old man an?
Isn’t he worried about any incidents happening or rumors spreading by letting stay with his granddaughter!
Or is it that this old man wants to woo his granddaughter, deliberately creating an opportunity?
“Um… Old Sir, this might not be appropriate, a single man and woman in one room… While I’m not afraid, it might affect your granddaughter’s reputation.”
Ye Xuan said with a peculiar look, treading cautiously.
Upon hearing this, the old man laughed heartily: “Divine Doctor Ye, you’re overthinking. Furong Pavilion is just a villa, although you and my granddaughter are staying together, you aren’t sharing a room, got it?”
“Oh, that’s how it is…”
Ye Xuan nodded, scratching his head awkwardly.
Yet, in his heart, he felt a bit annoyed that the old man didn’t clarify things, leaving him excited for nothing!
Apparently seeing through Ye Xuan’s thoughts, Xu Shichang winked adding aningfully with a smile: “Though you two are living together, whatever happens, the old man won’t ddle! Of course, provided it’s with my granddaughter’s consent. A man should be responsible for his actions, and if you dare to run away after eating, then the old man won’t forgive you.”
The last line was Xu Shichang’s solemn warning.
Consequently, Xu Lingyue’s pretty face turned even redder, shyly rebuking, “Grandpa, what nonsense are you talking, I haven’t agreed to anything yet.”
Xu Shichang chuckled, gazing affectionately at his granddaughter: “Girl, Grandpa is thinking of you, my age is advanced, I can’t protect you forever! You are no longer a child, the path ahead is yours to choose.”
Besides, Elder Hua looked at his old friend with envy, silently cursing the old fox in his heart!
“This old guy is just as cunning as ever, seeing through Ye Xuan’s potential. He’s rushing to offer his granddaughter up to completely draw Ye Xuan in! Alas, I’m rather unlucky, those worthless sons of mine can’t even give a beautiful granddaughter for this old guy to take advantage of…”
While feeling a bit lanted, he still felt happy for the other!
If they really manage to establish connections with Ye Xuan, then the Xu family wouldn’t have to worry.
Noticing the undeniable exhaustion in Xu Shichang’s eyes, Elder Hua imdiately stepped forward, instructing: “Ladies and gentlen, the old man’s body just recovered and is quite weak, let him rest more, you can visit another day.”
The crowd noticed Xu Shichang’s lack of energy and hence bade farewell.
When Xu Renhai also prepared to leave, Elder Hua said, “Renhai, the old man wants you to stay, he has so words for you.”
After saying this, Elder Hua left the ward too.
For a mont, only the father and son were left in the room!
Xu Renhai noticed that when everyone had left, Xu Shichang’s face gradually turned cold, his eyes carried sharpness, vastly different from the previously amiable deanor.
“Elder brother, keep a close watch on the second one! Including everything he does daily, who he interacts with, report all activities truthfully to ! Rember, this matter stays between you and , don’t let it leak out!” Xu Shichang said sternly.
“Ah…”
On hearing this, Xu Renhai stiffened inside, wondering if he heard wrong?
Before, Xu Shichang had just praised Xu Renjie and entrusted him with the family’s overseas business, and in a blink, now why did the old man want him to monitor the other?
Xu Shichang snorted coldly: “You really think I’m old and can’t see things clearly? The one who had poisoned was instigated by the second one?”
“Dad, you an you know everything?”
Xu Renhai paused, exclaid in surprise.
Xu Shichang sneered: “During these days although I was in a coma, my consciousness was clear, only unable to wake up! Everything you did and said by my side, I knew it all clearly.
Yet, I didn’t expect this matter to be orchestrated by the second one from behind. Previously he did fool around, but I thought it was just his nature, but this heartless beast actually dared to commit patricide. If there weren’t a lack of evidence, I would have taken him down earlier! What I said before was rely to stabilize him temporarily, making him lower his guard but the second one is always shrewd, success isn’t very certain.”
Saying this, he uttered seriously: “Rember, today’s situation will stay as it is in the future, don’t show any cracks lest you get discovered!”
Xu Renhai deeply inhaled, nodding solemnly.
Afterwards seemingly recalling sothing, he probed saying: “Dad, arranging Mr. Ye to Lingyue’s villa seems inappropriate? If sothing gets out, it would damage our Xu family’s reputation…”
“What do you know! Really think I’m senile? Furong Pavilion is the nearest place to , letting Mr. Ye temporarily reside there not only makes protecting Lingyue convenient but also ensures my imdiate protection! Do you think when that unworthy one, driven to desperation, would spare Lingyue on account?” Xu Shichang said.
Xu Renhai just realized, growing deep admiration.
The old man is truly sharp, lying on the hospital bed yet had everything arranged ticulously!
However, if Xu Shichang knew his son’s thoughts, he would certainly shake his head and lant, truly a blockhead.
Compared to everything else, Ye Xuan’s status draws his utmost attention.
A person possessing such extraordinary dical expertise, yet so young, can it be a simple task?
Besides.
Not ntioning anything else, those rescued from the brink of death, the network of these people alone is terrifying!
Establishing ties with Ye Xuan would be only beneficial to the Xu family.
With such a great opportunity before him, naturally, he absolutely wants to draw them in.
If his granddaughter indeed gets involved with Ye Xuan, then that’s sothing he would willingly see.
