CH 137

Xia Weilan went to the hospital early in the morning. The moment she walked into the ward, she saw that Old Master Xia was in good spirits.

She asked the doctor who was doing check-ups on Old Master Xia, “How is my grandpa’s condition?”

“He is recovering well. He was overwhelmed yesterday. All he needs to do is to take some medicines and he can be discharged from the hospital. He needs to stay calm and take things easy.”

After the doctor left, Old Master Xia got out of the bed and urged, “Since I can be discharged from the hospital, let’s pack up and get ready to leave. I’m not used to staying in the hospital, I rather go home as it’s way more comfortable at home.”

“Grandpa, you should eat your breakfast.” Xia Weilan placed the food she brought on the table and reached out to fill a bowl for him.

“Butler Zhao, please come and have some. I’ve cooked three servings.” Xia Weilan greeted Butler Zhao. She treated him as her own elder.

2nd Master Xia arrived at the hospital, wanting to check how Old Master Xia Is doing. When he arrived outside the ward, he heard laughter coming from inside.

“My child, I intend to pass down the company to you soon. What do you think? Anyway, it will be passed down to you sooner or later. I’ve already transferred the ownership of the old mansion under your name. I’m counting on you to take care of the company too. Ruolin is not as capable as you.” Old Master Xia said casually.

“Grandpa, I’m still too young. Let me learn by your side for two more years.” Xia Weilan didn’t like the way Old Master Xia was rushing about this matter. It seemed as though he was already arranging his will. She felt a little sad and immediately comforted him, “Grandpa, the doctor said you are still in good health. We’re not in a hurry to do all those.”

2nd Master Xia who heard the conversation was already looking hideous. He couldn’t believe that not only Old Master Xia was still in good shape, but he also intended to hand over the company to Xia Weilan.

Does that imply he’s not going to get anything in the end? This is outrageous.

He clenched his fists as he turned around and left.

" "

It’s no wonder he couldn’t find the old mansion’s title deeds. It turned out that the mansion was already transferred to Xia Weilan.

After Xia Weilan finished her breakfast, she requested Butler Zhao to help the old master pack up his belongings while she took the doctor’s prescription to the pharmacy at the lobby to collect the medicines.

There were many people waiting in the lobby’s pharmacy. Xia Weilan lined up and waited patiently. Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice.

“Qingqing, you’re still young. There’s no use for you to keep this child, you should listen to my advice.”

Xia Weilan turned around and saw Ouyang Mingqi walking in the lobby with a young girl. The girl looked haggard as if she had just cried.

“I just can’t bring myself to do this.” Qingqing caressed her belly gently. She kept walking ahead and she was about to pass in front of Xia Weilan.

“It’s okay, you’ll have plenty of opportunities in the future.” Ouyang Ming enlightened her with his gentle words. But as he spoke, he saw Xia Weilan and he was stunned.

“What’s the matter?” Qingqing’s voice was still shaky.

“Nothing. You go upstairs first. I’ll be there in a while.” Ouyang Mingqi patted Qingqing’s shoulder gently. Qingqing tensed up a little but she still got in the lift.

When the lift door closed, Ouyang Mingqi walked towards Xia Weilan.

“Are you feeling alright? Were you sick?”

Xia Weilan had already reeled back her sight and she wasn’t looking at him now.

The young girl seemed familiar. She looked like the daughter of a wealthy businessman. In short, she’s certain that she had met her at a banquet. At that time, the girl was bright, beautiful, and lively. She looked very different from her sad appearance just now.

“It has nothing to do with you!” Xia Weilan took a step forward. It’ll be her turn next.

She didn’t expect that he would suddenly grab her wrist. Ouyang Mingqi forced her to raise her head to look at his anxious face, “I really care about you. Are you unwell?”

“Hey,” Xia Weilan broke free from his grip. “I’m fine. You should accompany Qingqing. How can you let your woman go for an abortion by herself? Isn’t this bad for your honorable image?”

Ouyang Mingqi was stunned. He immediately explained, “She’s not with me. She’s with my friend. He created this mess and begged me to help him sort things out.”

Xia Weilan frowned and she said, “Your friend is heartless!”

Ouyang Mingqi kept quiet for a while before saying, “Can you answer my question now? Why are you here?”

Xia Weilan stepped forward. It was her turn. She handed over the prescription, and the lady at the counter started to gather the medicines..

Ouyang Mingqi stood in front of Xia Weilan like a statue. This made Xia Weilan a little upset. She knew that if she didn’t answer Ouyang Mingqi’s question, he would not leave. So she answered concisely, “I’m helping my grandpa to collect medicine.

Ouyang Mingqi let out a sigh of relief.

Xia Weilan quickly collected the medicine and avoided Ouyang Mingqi.

The moment she turned to a corridor, she noticed a woman standing there. She was dressed smartly, with her long hair tied neatly behind her.

Just when Xia Weilan was about to walk past her, she stepped forward and blocked her way, “Miss Xia, I was sent by President Mo to protect you. My name is An Shan.”

Xia Weilan recalled Mo Beichen mentioned that he would send someone to protect her. She nodded.

An Shan is a lady with a mature beauty. She has a unique temperament and poses a unique charm.

Ouyang Mingqi also walked towards the lift. An Shan let Xia Weilan go up first while she stopped Ouyang Mingqi.

Ouyang Mingqi narrowed his eyes and said in displeasure, “What are you doing?”

An Shan watched as the lift went up. She then stepped away and said to Ouyang Mingqi, “Dangerous individuals are not allowed to approach Miss Xia.”

Ouyang Mingqi frowned, “You’re too nosy.”

“Mr. Ouyang, our president instructed me to relay the message to you that if you’re really capable, you’re welcome to challenge him in the business field. He’ll be delighted to accept the challenge.” An Shan is calm and composed.

On the other hand, a hideous expression appeared on Ouyang Mingqi’s face. He reluctantly said, “You’re being oversensitive. I’m just about to visit my friend.”

He walked in the other direction.

An Shan called Mo Beichen and reported the situation. She then turned around and walked away.

Xia Weilan returned to the ward and found that Old Master Xia had already finished packing. She left the ward with Butler Zhao and the old master.

She didn’t catch a glimpse of An Shan again after their brief encounter just now.

However, she knew that An Shan was certainly following her from a safe distance.

Xia Weilan followed her grandpa back to the Xia’s Family old mansion and spent the rest of the afternoon there.

In the afternoon, Old Master Xia came out from his study and called the servant with an upset face, “Who has been to my study?”

The servant immediately replied, “Old Master, the 2nd master came over last night and claimed that he was helping you to get the clothes you need. Did you lose something?”

“Hmmph! Next time, don’t let him get in the old mansion without permission. Do you hear me?” The old master left the order before returning to the study.

The cabinets in the study were opened and someone had switched the position of the things inside the room.

Old Master Xia returned to his seat and said angrily, “This is really getting presumptuous!”
