Chapter 258 - What Else Was Hidden
258 What Else Was Hidden
But, Randall was so gentlemanly and polite. Besides, Mr. Max was old and could be considered a man of his word. She should help them on Max’s or Randall’s account, not keep quiet just because of an idiot like Merlin. So, Su Jin said,
“Alright, on account of our collaboration, and since you’re still a man of your word, I’ll tell you the truth. Your father doesn’t have high blood pressure, he has a worm in his brain. I think you should take your father to the hospital as soon as possible for a scan and then surgery. Otherwise, the worm might destroy the nerves in his brain and it’ll be too late then. It could cause your father to lose his memory, become paralyzed, and even mentally slow.”
When Merlin heard this, her face filled with disbelief. How was this possible? She could see through her father’s illness just by poking him a few times with a silver needle? What kind of joke was this? If it was so easy, what use was the family doctor? She retorted quickly,
“Little girl, don’t talk nonsense here. How could there be worms in my father’s brain?”
However, when Randall heard Su Jin’s words, his face turned pale and he felt restless. If this girl was right, how terrifying would it be? Once he became paralyzed… Randall did not dare to think about the consequences. He stood up with a frown and said to Su Jin,
“Madam Xi, thank you for telling me this. I must take our father to the hospital now, so I’ll take my leave.”
Randall then grabbed Merlin who was about to talk back and quickly left. Xi Chenxiao looked at Su Jin with a complicated expression. This girl really knew medicine and she was good, but he had no idea. He said plainly,
“My dear wife, how much more about you that I don’t know?”
Hearing this, Su Jin was stunned for a moment, then she felt a little awkward. How could she forget that Devil Xi was still by her side? Had she been showing off too much in the past two days? He must be suspicious. It wouldn’t be a problem as long as she didn’t admit it. She blinked and replied innocently,
“Well, actually, there isn’t much more…”
A few days later, Su Jin once again carried her schoolbag to school. In order to show that she really wanted to be a good student, she obediently wore her school uniform. Her hair was tied into a ponytail, and she looked youthful and pretty. Just as she got out of the car, Xi Chenxiao grabbed her arm and she fell into his embrace.
Xi Chenxiao looked at Su Jin with something different in his eyes. He reached out and lifted her chin. Su Jin was speechless at his behavior. They were at the school gate! Did she not care about her image? She asked hurriedly,
“Boss, you’re…”
She was about to say something crazy. This was a school, and it was early in the morning when everyone was arriving at school. It was so embarrassing. How could she face the school in future? Xi Chenxiao did not care about this, looked straight at her and interrupted. The corners of his mouth curled up as he said evenly,
“Girl, are you leaving just like that? Don’t you think there’s something missing? Like a good morning kiss?”
Su Jin was terrified. What was wrong with Devil Xi? Why was he so seductive early in the morning? Could it be that he was still sleepwalking? They were outside the main gate of her school. Xi Chenxiao looked at Su Jin’s reluctant expression and said coldly,
“How about we transfer you to a girls’ school?”
Su Jin’s face instantly darkened. What’s gotten into Devil Xi recently? He has been acting weird. Not only did he become less like the devil, he also kept saying things out of his character. Was he the real Xi Chenxiao? Xi Chenxiao saw her confusion and added seriously,
“Xi Tian has found a few girls’ schools. If you go to a girls’ school, you can focus on your studies and no one will disturb you. Have a think about it?”
This young girl was so pretty, and there was always an inexplicable sense of danger in his heart. He had to eliminate all possible threats to this relationship, especially since there were so many boys in this school and some of them might have ill intentions towards his
girl.
He couldn’t keep an eye on Su Jin all the time. What if she was seduced away by someone else?
