Chapter 64: I Just Called Your Dad

ed at Xia Tian once. "Is your anti-wrinkle cream on your person""It is." Xia Tian took out a small bottle from his pocket and handed it to Liu Yunman. "Sister Yunman, I'll give this to you, but please...Chapter 63: Ward Turmoil

"Sis Beauty, shall I go take a look at Grandpa's condition first" Xia Tian agreed quickly. How could he refuse such a good offer

"Little pervert!" Sun Xinxin muttered to herself.

"Let's hurry up and leave then!" Ye Mengying was in a rush, pulling Xia Tian outside as she ran.

By the florist’s door stood a black Audi, which happened to be the same car that Xia Tian had ridden when he first came down from the mountain. Ye Mengying pulled Xia Tian into the car and sped off urgently.

After about half an hour, Ye Mengying brought Xia Tian to Saint Heart Hospital, parking in a hurry before dragging him inside. But just as they walked a few steps, they encountered Ye Shaoxiong coming their way.

"Little sister, did you really bring Xia Tian here" Ye Shaoxiong showed a strange smile on his face.

"Big brother, I’m taking Xia Tian to see Grandpa first. Other matters can wait," Ye Mengying spoke quickly and ran inside even faster.

Ye Shaoxiong also sped up a bit to walk side by side with Xia Tian.

"When Gao Mingyang attacked you, I happened to receive my task at that time. If you had called me then, I wouldn’t have been able to take the call either." Ye Shaoxiong whispered.

"I didn't make a phone call," Xia Tian spoke honestly.

"Aren't you supposed to call me if you have something to handle" Ye Shaoyong, who was originally feeling a bit apologetic, became gloomy upon hearing Xia Tian's words.

"I can solve it faster on my own," Xia Tian remained honest and added another truthful statement.

Ye Shaoyong felt even more depressed; the other party clearly looked down on him.

"You certainly have talent. Gao Mingyang now hates you to death but dares not do anything against you." Ye Shaoyong sighed, as he had previously thought Xia Tian was very capable but hadn't expected him to deal with Gao Mingyang so easily.

“Actually, I wanted to get rid of him.” However, Xia Tian still sounded regretful. “Leaving him around is just a disaster waiting to happen.”

Ye Shaoyong couldn’t help but shake his head; the kid still advocated violent methods. But he didn't say anything further because they had already arrived outside the ward.

When entering the ward, Xia Tian noticed there were many people inside—men and women numbering at least a dozen. They surrounded the bed tightly, leaving him unable to see who was lying on it.

"Xia Tian, come quick, check my grandfather's condition!" Ye Mengying pushed aside two people and pulled Xia Tian over to the bedside. At this moment, Xia Tian finally saw clearly the patient lying in bed—completely white-haired with sunken eye sockets, extremely emaciated, truly skin and bones.

The elderly person lay quietly there; though their eyes seemed open, they showed no reaction to their surroundings, indicating a complete loss of consciousness.

"Mengying, what are you doing Where did you find such a person" A man around fifty years old asked angrily.

"Uncle Er, this is Xia Tian; the miracle doctor I found." Ye Mengying didn't even look up. "Since doctors from Saint Heart Hospital can't cure Grandfather's illness, I had to go out and find other doctors."

"This little brat, and he's a divine physician" The man was somewhat annoyed. "Mengying, when did you become so糊塗

"You're the little brat!" Summer raised his head and glared fiercely at that man. He had already become a man, a fact even Fairy Shenniang acknowledged; he wasn't just some little brat anymore!

"Boy, how dare you talk back to me" The man was furious. "Do you know who I am"

"No idea!" Summer pouted. "Stop bothering me or else I'll beat you up!"

"Beat me up" The man laughed insanely in his rage. "I, Ye Zhiyi, have never experienced being beaten by someone before, and I just don't believe…"

“Uncle Er, I advise you to stop talking.” Ye Shaoxiong interrupted Ye Zhiyi’s words. “Otherwise, I believe it will be the first time in your life that you get a beating.”

"Ye Shaoxiong, is this how you speak to an elder" Ye Zhiyi shouted angrily.

“Uncle Er, I only hope you'll take the time to read out Summer's name twice. Then perhaps you’ll understand who he is.” Ye Shaoxiong spoke with a faint smile.

"Isn't it just called Summer I… " Ye Zhiyi sneered but suddenly remembered something and his expression changed instantly, “What did you say He’s that Summer”

“It's good that Uncle Er has finally recalled it.” Ye Shaoxiong smiled faintly. "Summer is currently diagnosing Grandpa's condition; it would be best if Uncle Er didn't disturb him for now."

Ye Zhiyi looked at Summer, hesitating to speak out but with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

As for the others, none of them spoke at this moment. They merely watched as if they were enjoying a show, and what exactly was on their minds could only be known by themselves.

The surroundings fell silent, and Xia Tian also placed his hand onto the withered wrist of the old man to take his pulse.

Xia Tian had been in high spirits earlier. He felt that today would be a lucky day for him; first Huang Haitao brought money to him, then Miss Ye sent a beautiful woman over. But after taking this old man’s pulse, he no longer felt happy at all.

"Xia Tian, how is the situation Can you cure my grandfather's illness" Upon seeing Xia Tian looking somewhat odd, Ye Mengying couldn’t help feeling an ill omen and asked anxiously.

Xia Tian looked dejected as he shook his head gloomily. "No."

Since this old man’s illness could not be cured, the beautiful woman would not offer herself to him either, which made Xia Tian very upset. But there was nothing he could do about it; he truly couldn't cure the old man.

Hearing this, Ye Mengying felt that her last hope had vanished. She stared blankly at her grandfather as two clear tears flowed down from her eyes without her noticing.

"I thought you were really a wonder doctor, but so what" A light snort came from the side, and it was an adult woman speaking. She looked very plump, weighing no less than 200 pounds.

"That’s right, our Saintheart Hospital's doctors are the best in the world, and they can’t cure Grandpa. So how could anyone else do it" Someone chimed in from the side, also a woman who looked to be in her thirties with considerable beauty.

"Auntie Two, Auntie Three, is that what you both are hoping for—Grandfather's death" Ye Mengying suddenly raised her head and glared angrily at these two women.

"Mengying, how can you talk like this I hope you don’t slander others!" The plump woman said unhappily.

"That's right, Meiying, we are your aunts; you're being too disrespectful!" The young woman chimed in as well, seeming to be the plump woman's echo.

Leaf Meiyung gave a cold laugh: "What everyone is thinking in their hearts is clear! Aren't you two just hoping that Grandfather will die sooner so you can inherit his estate"

"Meiying, don’t talk nonsense!" A stern voice came from another middle-aged man.

Leaf Meiyung huffed but said no more. This person was her father, Ye Zhizhong. Although she had a poor relationship with him, he was still her father; it wouldn't do to argue with him.

In any case, Leaf Meiyung wasn’t in the mood for an argument at this moment. After venting her dissatisfaction, she looked back at Xia Tian somewhat reluctantly and asked: "Xia Tian, is there really no way"

"Sis, I wish I could help him too, but he’s got so many ailments all over his body. Strictly speaking, it's not an illness; it’s because he’s too old. His meridians and bones have deteriorated severely with age. To cure him would be like turning back the clock on aging. I can't heal him, but I can extend his life by around half a year." Xia Tian was rather dejected.

When Leaf Meiyung heard Xia Tian say again that he couldn’t cure her grandfather, she felt utterly despondent. Yet suddenly she heard the next words from Xia Tian, and for a moment it seemed as if she had misunderstood him.

"Xia Tian, you—you said what You mean to say you can extend Grandfather’s life by half a year" Leaf Meiyung asked shakily.

“Yes. Even though I can’t cure him, extending his life for half a year is possible.” Xia Tian nodded.

"That's wonderful, that's wonderful…" Leaf Meiyung felt as if she had gone from hell to heaven in an instant. "Xia Tian, quickly! Help Grandfather right away; make him wake up!"

“Oh, okay.” Seeing how happy Leaf Meiyung was, Xia Tian’s mood improved a bit. He took out a silver needle and prepared to start the treatment.

"Wait!" A loud voice echoed, coming from Ye Zhiyi.

"What's the matter" Xia Tian glanced at Ye Zhiyi with a hint of displeasure.

Ye Zhiyi ignored Xia Tian and looked around before slowly saying, "Big Brother, Third Brother, are you really willing to let such an unknown person treat Grandpa"

"Uncle Yi, what do you mean by that" Ye Mengying was furious. "Someone is treating Grandpa now, which can allow him to live half a year longer. Are you actually trying to stop this"

"Mengying, your uncle isn't saying he won't let someone treat your grandfather. It's just that this person is so young and of unknown origin. Who knows if what he says about extending your grandfather's life by half a year is true or not" The plump woman chimed in. "Now that your grandfather is still alive, what if this person ends up killing him Then who would take responsibility for it"

"I invited Xia Tian here myself; any consequences will be my responsibility!" Ye Mengying said indignantly.

"Mengying, even if you are willing to take responsibility, that doesn't mean you can隨便讓任何人給老爺子治病。" 葉誌義沉哼一聲，“你說夏天是醫生，那行，讓他把行醫證拿出來！”

"二叔，你就這麼怕爺爺被治好嗎？" 挖苦的聲音響起，卻是葉少雄接上話，“你聽說過夏天的事情，知道他的本事，現在聽他說能讓爺爺多活半年，所以你害怕了，是吧？”

"少雄，我不知道你在說什麼，這個叫夏天的我也是剛剛第一次見到他，他要是有行醫證，那自然願意讓他給老爺子治病！" 葉誌義沉哼一聲，“若是冇有，那就請他離開這個病房！”

"夏天是我請來的醫生，你們冇資格趕他走！" 葉夢瑩憤憤的說道。

"夢瑩，彆忘了，我是你二叔！" 葉誌義冷哼一聲，“這家怎麼也輪不到你來當！”

"Mengying, you forget that I'm your uncle!" Ye Zhiyi said coldly.

She had met helpful people along the way but overall led a hard life. She wanted someone to rely on, and Xia T...
