CHAPTER 154: CHAPTER 152: THE PRESIDENT CHANGES HIS WAYS

Because Grandpa had just undergone major surgery, nonessential personnel weren’t allowed inside. Si Yuhuan could only look at Grandpa through the glass window.

His eyes were tightly shut, and his lips seemed to have regained some color. Yan Qing, who was at his side, nodded. "Miss Jiang is outside, crying and making a fuss to see you. What do you think?"

"Let’s go."

Some issues, after all, had to be resolved.

Yan Qing brought Jiang Qimeng to a VIP room in the hospital.

When she saw Si Yuhuan, who sat in his chair, looking down on her like an emperor, she rushed forward. "Yuhan, Yuhan, you must stand up for me! Jian Xi set a trap just to deal with me. Just look at this ghostly state I’m in; it’s all because she’s been scheming behind the scenes!"

Si Yuhuan’s expression instantly turned icy. "Are you suggesting that Sernosen’s so-called drug trial rules were orchestrated by Jian Xi?"

"Yes! Who else but her would hate me so much! There must be something wrong with her brother; how do you know he’s not a ’lover brother’?"

Si Yuhuan’s complexion looked as if it were about to crack under the weight of Jiang Qimeng’s words.

Calling someone a ’lover brother,’ ’lover sister’ without any evidence, and just dumping dirt on others. If he hadn’t heard it himself, he would have doubted whether the generous and gentle woman he once knew was the same person as the one before him.

"He’s her biological brother," Si Yuhuan said slowly, trying to contain his anger.

Jiang Qimeng was shocked. "What? How could he be her biological brother? Isn’t that doctor an internationally renowned medical genius? Since when did such a person appear in the Jian Family?"

That damned Jian Xi! How could she be so lucky? She has an international superstar as a brother, and now another brother who’s an international genius doctor, not to mention Jian Mingcheng, that sister-obsessed lunatic. She must have stepped in dog poop to get so lucky! Just this background alone was enough to make Jiang Qimeng green with envy and jealousy.

"Jiang Qimeng, let’s put an end to this matter," the man spoke with an authoritative tone that brooked no denial.

Jiang Qimeng understood Si Yuhuan; he was already extremely impatient. Continuing to dwell on this wouldn’t gain her any advantage.

In the end, he still favored Jian Xi!

Though her heart brimmed with resentment, she couldn’t show it on her face and feigned humility. "Yuhan, I’m sorry. The drug trial must have messed with my mind, causing me to have a bad temper. I spoke out of line, hurting others as well as myself. I truly am very sorry."

This loss from the drug trial was a bitter pill she had to swallow; she had to endure it silently.

Seeing her like this, Si Yuhuan found it difficult to blame her, and his tone softened slightly. "Dr. Sernosen established his drug-trial rules to save lives almost twenty years ago. They definitely have nothing to do with Jian Xi. She only found out about this recently. Jian Sirun rushed back thousands of miles for Grandpa’s sake, so if you speak ill of them, I will be very angry."

"Mmm, I won’t make the same mistake in the future." Jiang Qimeng yielded on that point. "Not working for so long has left me feeling depressed and restless, and I tend to overthink. Yuhan, how about you let me return to work at Haohan Group?"

Si Yuhuan glanced at the terrible wounds on her body.

"Forget it." He waved his hand magnanimously. "Hangfan Media is an entertainment media company I’ve just acquired. From now on, it’s yours."

"Yuhan, you’re so good to me."

Jiang Qimeng flung herself at Si Yuhuan, hugging him tightly.

Not far away, someone captured this scene on camera.

After Jiang Qimeng walked out, she looked at the photos on her phone, and a cold smile touched her red lips.

Jian Xi! You took half my life; I’ll take three of yours! I swear I won’t be human if I don’t kill you and the child in your womb!

「...」

Jian Xi and her fourth brother, Jian Sirun, had just arrived home when their eldest brother came over to greet them.

"Fourth Brother, it’s rare to see you back in the country." He patted Jian Sirun’s shoulder, a rare smile on his stern face. Then, his gaze fell on Jian Xi, and his expression darkened. "If it weren’t for your fourth brother, were you planning on not coming home at all?"

Jian Xi quickly went over and hugged Jian Mingcheng’s arm. "What are you saying, Big Brother? I’ve missed you so much! Since Fourth Brother is back, I bought a lot of groceries today and plan to cook personally."

"Forget it. We don’t need you to do that; Aunt Liu can handle it. You’re all thumbs and might hurt yourself."

"Hehe, Big Brother is the best."

Jian Sirun adjusted his glasses and said helplessly, "She’s always been good at acting spoiled."

Jian Mingcheng looked at her fondly. "There are five of us brothers, and she’s our only sister. Of course, we spoil her like a treasured pearl. Otherwise, why would you, who are so busy with new drug research, drop everything and rush back?"

Jian Xi felt like she was about to be overwhelmed by sweetness, so happy she could almost fly. "Brother~"

Their parents weren’t home, and the siblings, being close in age, had a lot to talk about.

She linked arms with both of them and began to change the subject.

Jian Sirun wasn’t a gossip and rarely inquired about her personal life, so throughout their conversation, he never mentioned Si Yuhuan, nor did he blame her for divorcing without a word.

He didn’t even mention Old Master Si, who had just undergone surgery.

It was Jian Mingcheng who asked, "How is Old Master Si doing?"

Jian Xi quickly pricked up her ears to listen.

She had actually asked earlier but was afraid her fourth brother might scold her for still pining after Si Yuhuan.

"The brain surgery was successful, but his heart is the real problem. He’s old. Even though he survived this serious illness, he probably won’t be able to move around like a normal person anymore."

"Will he have to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair?" Jian Xi immediately asked.

After asking, she felt slightly embarrassed. "After all, Old Master Si was good to me when I was at the Si Family home. I’m just concerned, that’s all."

Jian Mingcheng praised her, "Xixi is still kind-hearted. Fourth Brother, make sure you do your best with Old Master Si’s surgery. Mom and Dad have reminded you several times."

"Mm, I’ll do my best. Dr. Sernosen will be the lead surgeon; he’s an expert in this field."

While they were talking, the butler came to the door to report, "Eldest Young Master, your brother-in-law—no, Director Si has arrived."

Before Jian Mingcheng could decide whether to see him, Si Yuhuan walked straight in, followed by a number of people.

These people were all holding expensive gifts.

Jian Xi roughly estimated the gifts to be worth tens of millions.

That huge gemstone alone had to be worth several million!

Si Yuhuan gestured with his hand. Once the items were set down, everyone withdrew.

"A thank-you gift," he said, as concise as ever.

"As expected from the richest man, so generous," Jian Xi mocked.

Si Yuhuan acted as if he didn’t understand and sat down on the sofa, making himself at home.

At this moment, Aunt Liu asked if it was time to serve the meal.

Jian Mingcheng made a polite offer, "Director Si, would you like to stay for dinner?"

"Alright!" Si Yuhuan headed to the dining room as if he knew the place well.

Jian Xi’s eyes widened in disbelief as she watched Si Yuhuan. He had always looked down on the Jian family and disdained any association with them. In his arrogant eyes, the Jian brothers, no matter how outstanding, were merely ’outstanding’—he never truly valued them.

What had changed now!

Jian Xi stomped her foot and followed him. "Si Yuhuan, he was just being polite! Are you really staying for dinner?!"

Jian Mingcheng’s mouth twitched. His little sister really had guts now. In the whole world, you could count on one hand the number of people who dared to speak to Si Yuhuan like that, and she was definitely the boldest of them all.
