Chapter 158: Does This Old Man Want to Die?
“Of course I have my ways. Move aside.” Chi Jiao couldn’t be bothered to talk nonsense with Chi Yan as she looked at her coldly.
The strong oppression in her eyes forced Chi Yan to back off.
Looking at Chi Jiao’s clear eyes, Chi Yan felt as if a huge hand was pressing her down tightly. She couldn’t even breathe freely.
Cowardice unconsciously formed in her heart.
However, her pride and face made it impossible for her to back down.
“What solutions do you have?” Chi Yan sneered. “Jiaojiao, Grandpa dotes on you so much, but now you’re obstructing me from saving him. What are your motives?”
Her words were a little harsh.
“Chi Yan!” Chi Mingwei’s expression darkened. “Jiaojiao will never harm Grandpa. You’re going a little overboard with your words.”
When Chi Yan saw how he still didn’t forget to protect Chi Jiao at this moment, her heart was filled with jealousy.
“Dad, I have no objections to you always defending and protecting Jiaojiao on a normal basis. I’m the older sister, and I should be taking care of her and giving in to her. But what kind of situation is this right now? Jiaojiao doesn’t know anything, but she still wants to obstruct me from treating Grandpa’s illness. Don’t tell me you’re going to indulge her even in this?” Chi Yan looked at him angrily and aggrievedly.
Chi Mingwei’s face turned livid at her retort.
Chi Yan looked at Sun Qiulan aggrievedly, hoping that she could help her uphold justice.
Sun Qiulan cleared her throat. “Chi Jiao, don’t disturb your sister’s work.”
Just as she said that, Old Master Chi suddenly coughed violently.
“Cough, cough, cough…” He opened his eyes and looked at the side of the bed.
He was woken up by the voices around him.
Chi Yan was about to go forward to help Old Master Chi up and calm him down when she heard him speak in a hoarse voice.
“Cough, cough, cough… Let Jiaojiao try…”
Chi Yan immediately retracted her hand and looked at him as if she had seen a ghost.
What the hell? Does this old man want to die? He’s actually willing to let Chi Jiao take his health as a joke.
Chi Jiao squeezed her aside. Then, she gently helped Old Master Chi up and placed a soft pillow behind him.
“Grandpa, how are you feeling now?” Chi Jiao looked at him worriedly.
Old Master Chi knew that revealing the truth about his body might help her, so he didn’t hide it. “I’m a little cold, and my knees hurt.”
This was a typical symptom of the cold air in the body.
Chi Jiao was even more sure that her judgment was correct. She took out a transparent little bag from her bag. Inside was some blue powder.
Before she came, she had already presumed Old Master Chi’s current condition based on his previous health condition. She had prepared a few medicines in advance just in case they would be of use.
When Chi Yan saw the bag of pretty blue powder Chi Jiao took out, she felt that it looked familiar, but she couldn’t remember where she had seen it before.
“Grandpa, you shouldn’t let Jiaojiao mess around.” Chi Yan resisted the jealousy in her heart and looked at him. “Let me help you take a look instead.”
“I’m willing to believe in my own biological granddaughter,” Old Master Chi said with a snort.
Chi Yan was speechless.
Initially, Sun Qiulan was on Chi Yan’s side. But it was for no other reason than the fact that she didn’t like Chi Jiao at all.
But now that Old Master Chi had woken up, she knew that it was useless no matter what she said. She had never had much say in front of him.
“Jiaojiao, are you sure you want to help your grandfather treat his illness?” Sun Qiulan stared straight at Chi Jiao, wishing she could poke a hole in her with her gaze.
