2151 Dissing Him in Front of Sister Nian
The doctor was frightened by his eyes which seemed to know the truth. He quickly found an excuse and left in a hurry.
As soon as the doctor and nurse left the ward, Old Madam Xie, who was lying on the bed, seemed to have recovered. She asked Xie Yun, “Where’s Tingyun?”
Xie Yun turned around and glanced at Mother Xie, Father Xie, and Xie Xinyao. Angry, she spoke quickly. “She’s not here yet. She’s probably on the way.”
“She insisted on eating before coming to see me?!” The old lady seemed to be angry again; her face flushed red. “How much trouble does she want to cause over a stranger?! I want to see what trick that person used to charm her that she doesn’t even want her own family!”
“Mom, Qiao Nian is not that kind of person.” Frustrated, Xie Yun quickly said, “Don’t listen to some people’s nonsense.”
It was apparent who the “some people” were.
Father Xie and Mother Xie looked embarrassed.
Father Xie hurriedly explained, “We didn’t tell Mom. Mom heard it herself. Everyone in the independent continent knows that Tingyun wants to acknowledge a goddaughter. Mom casually asked around and heard the rumors.”
Xie Yun glanced at him angrily and covered the old lady with the blanket. Then, she asked him back, “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Father Xie seemed to be too embarrassed to mention it, but he still soldiered on. “Everyone outside says that our Xie family is going to let an outsider inherit our things.”
Xie Yun’s expression darkened, but before she could flare up, Father Xie continued to say even worse things.
“They even said that Tingyun is crazy. We have a member in the Level 8 laboratory, Xinyao, but Tingyun didn’t teach her and insisted on siding with an outsider. She let an outsider take advantage of our family for no reason! Some people even said that the outsider approached Tingyun with an ulterior motive from the beginning. She wants the Xie family’s connections and assets.”
Ji Nan’s expression darkened, and he was about to flare up.
Qiao Nian, Xie Tingyun, and Nan Tianyi had just arrived outside the ward.
The three of them had just reached the door when they heard the commotion inside.
Qiao Nian also ‘coincidentally’ heard someone calling her. She stopped in her tracks and pressed her baseball cap. Then, under the gazes of Xie Tingyun and Nan Tianyi, she walked in indifferently and spoke.
“Looks like I came at the wrong time and interrupted your conversation.”
She had a strong aura.
She attracted everyone’s eyes the moment she walked into the ward.
Xie Xinyao clenched her fists tightly when she saw her. She did not even notice that her nails had dug into her flesh. She was only focused on staring at Qiao Nian.
Xie Yun and Ji Nan did not expect Qiao Nian to arrive at this time or even hear what Father Xie said.
Their expressions changed, and they subconsciously looked at the girl’s expression.
Ji Nan even explained, “Qiao Nian, don’t listen to what they say.”
“What did they say?” The girl raised her eyebrows. She didn’t appear angry.
On the other hand, Ji Nan could not tell what she was thinking.
At this moment, the old lady on the bed realized Qiao Nian’s identity and interrupted, “You’re Nian Nian. Come, come, let me take a look at you.”
Father Xie, Mother Xie, and Xie Xinyao made way for them.
However, Qiao Nian did not listen to her. She only glanced at the elderly’s complexion from afar and said to Xie Tingyun and Nan Tianyi, who were one step behind her, “The patient looks alright. She’s full of energy when she speaks. Her heart and lungs are fine. She should be fine.”
