The doctor felt frightened by his eyes that seemed to see through the truth, so he quickly made an excuse and left.
As soon as the doctor and the nurse left the ward, Mrs. Xie on the bed seemed to recover and asked Xie Yun with all her strength, "Where's Tingyun?"
Xie Yun looked back, and then glanced at Xie's mother, Xie's father, and Xie Xinyao's family of three. She was very upset and spoke quickly and briefly: "She hasn't come yet. I guess she's on the way."
"She has to finish her meal before she comes to see me?!" The old lady seemed to be angry again, her face flushed, and she was obviously very angry: "How much trouble does she have to make for a stranger? Our family is not as important as a stranger in her heart. I want to see what kind of magic that person used on her to make her so obsessed that she doesn't even want her own relatives!"
"Mom, Qiao Nian is not that kind of person." Xie Yun was upset and said quickly, "Don't listen to what some people say."
It was obvious who those certain people she was talking about were.
Xie's father and mother looked embarrassed.
Father Xie also quickly explained: "We didn't tell Mom, she heard it from others. The news that Tingyun wanted to adopt a goddaughter was known to everyone in the Independent Continent. Mom heard the rumors just by asking around."
Xie Yun glanced at him unhappily, covered the old lady with a blanket, and asked him, "What rumors are you talking about?"
Father Xie seemed embarrassed to bring it up, but he began to speak: "People outside are saying that our Xie family will let an outsider inherit it."
Xie Yun's face darkened, but she didn't have time to get angry.
Father Xie simply said something even more unpleasant: "They also said that Tingyun was crazy. He had Xinyao, a Level 8 laboratory member of the research institute, but he didn't teach her and insisted on siding with an outsider. He let the outsider take advantage of our family for nothing! Some people also said that the outsider approached Tingyun with a purpose from the beginning, which was to monopolize the Xie family's connections and property."
Ji Nan's face was gloomy at this moment, and he was about to get angry.
Outside the ward, Qiao Nian, Xie Tingyun and Nan Tianyi had already arrived.
As the three of them arrived at the door, they heard a lively conversation inside.
Qiao Nian 'unfortunately' heard someone calling her. She stood at the door, stopped, reached out and pressed her baseball cap. Under the gaze of Xie Tingyun and Nan Tianyi, she walked in indifferently and responded to what Xie's father said.
"It seems I came at the wrong time and disturbed your chat."
She has a strong personal presence.
As soon as she entered the ward, everyone's attention was attracted by her.
When Xie Xinyao saw Qiao Nian come in, she clenched her hands involuntarily. She didn't even notice her nails digging into her flesh. She just stared at Qiao Nian.
Xie Yun and Ji Nan did not expect Qiao Nian to arrive at this time, and happened to hear what Xie's father said.
Both of them changed their expressions and subconsciously looked at the girl's reaction.
Ji Nan also explained: "Qiao Nian, don't listen to what they say."
"What?" The girl raised her eyebrows, but she didn't look angry.
Ji Nan couldn't figure out what she was thinking.
At this time, the old lady on the bed reacted and realized Qiao Nian's identity, and interrupted: "You are Nian Nian, come here, let me see."
Xie's father, Xie's mother and Xie Xinyao made way.
But Qiao Nian did not walk over. He only glanced at the complexion of the old man on the bed from a distance, and said to Xie Tingyun and Nan Tianyi who came in one step later: "The patient looks OK, he speaks with full energy, and his heart and lung functions are fine. He should be fine."
