Qiao Jierou walked out with the best smile on her face.
When she walked out, she saw the scene she didnât want to see the most. Han Yinyin was talking to Qiao Weiyang.
âDr. Qiao, thank you. My grandmaâs condition has improved a lot today. She looks good. Besides, she said that she can relax now. I came today to thank you.â
...
âDonât call me Dr. Qiao. Call me by my name.â
âThen Iâll call you Sister Weiyang. Sister Weiyang, my parents asked me to bring this gift to you. You must accept it. I have a presumptuous request. Although Grandmaâs health has improved, sheâs still far from recovery. I want to ask you to take a look at Grandma again, okay?â Han Yinyin begged.
Qiao Weiyang nodded gently. âSure, but you should take the gift back. I canât accept it.â
âSister Weiyang! Take it. If you donât, I donât know what my parents will say to me when I go back.â
Qiao Jierou didnât hear what they were saying clearly, but she heard Han Yinyin thank Qiao Weiyang for what the Qiao family did.
What was this?
She was the one who invited Dr. Zhuge. What did it have to do with Qiao Weiyang?
âMiss Han!â Qiao Jierou walked toward Han Yinyin.
âMiss Qiao,â Han Yinyin saw her coming and greeted her politely.
âIs Old Madam Han doing better?â Qiao Jierou asked with concern. âIâm busy and havenât gone to visit her today. Please donât take offense.â
Han Yinyin thought of how Grandma had vomited so much blood last night. The situation was critical, and the entire family was helpless.
If not for Qiao Weiyangâs medicine, she might have died long ago.
At the thought of this, not only was she angry at Dr. Zhuge, but she also did not have a good attitude toward Qiao Jierou.
She said calmly, âMuch better. Thank you for your concern.â
âThatâs good. In the afternoon, Iâll get Brother Heng to accompany Dr. Zhuge and go over to take Old Madam Hanâs pulse. He can prescribe some medicine and try to let the old madam recover as soon as possible. Brother Heng spent a lot of effort to invite Dr. Zhuge over. He usually doesnât treat patients. This time, itâs really fate that allowed him to treat Old Madam Han.â
âThank you.â Han Yinyin maintained her superficial politeness.
âItâs only right. Weâre also very anxious after hearing that Old Madam Han is sick.â After Qiao Jierou finished speaking, she changed the topic. âMiss Han, why are you with my sister? My sister has moved out for so long and isnât living at home. She doesnât know much about whatâs going on at home.â
The meaning between the lines was a reminder to Han Yinyin that she was the one who contributed to Old Madam Hanâs matter and it had nothing to do with Qiao Weiyang. She hoped that Han Yinyin would not mistake the person she was thanking.
How could Han Yinyin not understand what she meant?
However, the more pretentious she was, the more Han Yinyin felt that she was not presentable, especially when compared to Qiao Weiyang.
âI understand, Miss Qiao.â Han Yinyin remained calm. âIâll leave first.â
âIâll send you off,â Qiao Jierou quickly said.
âThereâs no need to send me off, Miss Qiao. Go ahead with your work.â Han Yinyin turned to Qiao Weiyang and said, âSister Weiyang, Iâll leave these things to your assistant. You canât make things difficult for me.â
Qiao Weiyang couldnât refuse anymore, so she could only acquiesce.
Han Yinyin left after saying that. Compared to her friendly attitude toward Qiao Weiyang, her attitude toward Qiao Jierou was too cold.
Qiao Jierou was furious. Could it be that Han Yinyin did not understand her at all? She was the one who invited Dr. Zhuge!
What kind of brain did Han Yinyin have?
âSister, I didnât expect you to befriend the Han family.â Qiao Jierou looked at Qiao Weiyang. âHan Yinyinâs attitude toward you is really good.â
âYes, so?â
âDonât forget that Old Madam Hanâs matter was resolved by me and Brother Heng. It has nothing to do with you! Why didnât you clarify this in front of Han Yinyin?â
Qiao Weiyang curled her lips. âIf sheâs willing to believe me, what can I do?â
Qiao Jierou clenched her fists. âAlright then! I want to see if she believes you or me!â
In the afternoon, Qiao Jierou went to ask Director Cao for leave.
Director Cao was a little dissatisfied. âJierou, have you been busy recently? Why do you always ask for leave? You canât keep up with your scenes anymore.â
âDirector Cao, I do have something to do. Besides⌠I donât think my sister comes to the set often, and the number of our scenes is similar. If she can keep up, I should be able to too.â
Director Cao was silent for a while. Of course, the two of them could not compare. Qiao Weiyangâs scenes were always filmed quickly, and there was nothing wrong with her rhythm and emotions. Qiao Jierou could not compare to her at all.
âAlright. If thereâs nothing else, come back quickly.â
After Qiao Jierou applied for leave, she immediately called Lin Heng and said that she wanted to go to the Han family with him and Dr. Zhuge.
Of course, Lin Heng had no objections.
âŚ
The Han family.
In the afternoon, after Old Madam Han drank another bowl of medicine, her mind felt a little sharper.
Although she was lying on a sick bed, she was aware of the things that took place yesterday. She was now talking to Han Yinyin.
âI think Qiao Weiyang is indeed not bad. Itâs not just her identity. I think her medical skills are enough to leave others in the dust. Yinyin, you canât offend such a person.â
âGrandma, how could I offend her?! Iâm so grateful that she treated you yesterday. I can only admire her.â
âBy the way, I think sheâs an artiste. She doesnât seem to be willing to announce her relationship with Mr. Su to the public. You have to know these things yourself.â
Han Yinyin had been nurtured by the Han family as their successor since she was young, so she naturally knew what to say and what not to say.
The grandmother and granddaughter were talking when the butler came over and said, âOld Madam, Miss, Mr. Lin, Miss Qiao, and Dr. Zhuge are here.â
âHeh.â Han Yinyin sneered. âHave them leave.â
Old Madam Han closed her eyes to rest. She did not even want to hear their names.
When she stepped into the gates of hell last night, no one knew that fear better than her.
And all of this had something to do with Dr. Zhuge.
If she had taken the medicine given by Qiao Weiyang earlier, she probably wouldnât have experienced those things at all.
âŚ
At the door, Lin Heng, Qiao Jierou, and Dr. Zhuge were all waiting.
The butler had already gone to inform the family. The three of them waited to be warmly welcomed in.
However, a moment later, the butler walked out coldly.
âIâm sorry, but our old madam needs to recuperate now. Itâs not convenient for her to entertain guests, so I wonât welcome the three of you in. Please leave.â
