Chapter 91: Grandpa

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

A few minutes later, Lu Ying walked to Qiao Yue's side to remove the needles on Old Master Qiao.

Since the old master was awake, he no longer needed someone to hold him still, so Qiao Yue stepped aside.

Lu Ying was extremely quick when removing the needles. In just a short while, all the needles on the old master had been removed.

With Lu Ying's help, Old Master Qiao sat up and beckoned Qiao Yue.

Although the old master didn't lose his composure again, he couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes.

"You're Xiao Qing's son?" Old Master Qiao asked as he held Qiao Yue's hand.

But before Qiao Yue could answer, he muttered to himself, "Yup! You look so much like her so you must be Xiao Qing's son!"

"Your name is Qiao Yue, right? Xiao Yue! I'm your grandfather!"

Qiao Yue was a little uncomfortable at her grandfather's touch. Although her mother often told her about her grandfather when she was young, she was still very young then and she had never met her grandfather. She couldn't get close to someone she had just met, so she just said "Grandpa" matter-of-factly.

Qiao Yue felt that her "Grandpa" was dry and insincere but Old Master Qiao had tears streaming down his face. He patted the back of Qiao Yue's hand and said, "When your mother left the Qiao family when she was pregnant with you, I thought that I would never see you again in this life. I didn't expect to see you again. Grandpa feels that he owes you and your mother for all these years. From now on, you'll live with us and the Qiao family will protect you!"

Qiao Yue detected something strange in her grandfather's words. Why did he say that the Qiao family would protect her? What did he mean?

Just as Qiao Yue was about to ask, Lu Ying suddenly coughed.

"We need to be more watchful since the old master has just woken up." Lu Ying gave Qiao Yue a look as he spoke, indicating that there were still people waiting outside.

Qiao Yue understood what he meant. If they still didn't go out, the people who didn't want the old master to wake up would probably cause a ruckus outside.

Qiao Yue was right. The second son of the Qiao family had been restless since Qiao Yue was left behind in the ward.

One moment he would say that Qiao Yue colluded with Lu Ying to murder the old master, and the next moment, he would say that Qiao Jing had been tricked into bringing Qiao Yue home.

Qiao Xuan and Qiao Jing stood on both sides of the door, their faces cold. If Dr. Lu's treatment didn't work, the only thing they could do was to bring the old master back to C-Country and ask Dr. Lu's teacher to treat him.

Their second uncle's mouth didn't stop, and both of them were annoyed.

Qiao Xuan and Qiao Jing were both sort of brought up by Old Master Qiao, so their feelings for him were deeper than the rest of the Qiao family.

Hearing his second uncle's endless chatter, Qiao Jing took out his phone and dialed a number. "Terminate all our contracts with companies under Qiao Zhong."

His words were like a pause button, but before his second uncle stopped, Qiao Jing had already hung up.

Qiao Xuan looked up at Qiao Jing with a smile.

The second son of the Qiao family didn't believe it at first and walked to a corner in silence. Twenty minutes later, his phone rang, and a woman's anxious voice sounded. "Hubby, what happened? The person in charge of public relations came to the office just now to tell us that Xiao Jing's company has terminated their contract with us. Aren't you all in S-Country to see Dad? Why did this suddenly happen?"
