The old lady took a sip of tea and then said, "Today was supposed to be a day of celebration, but you've caused everyone heartache. What do you think should be done about it?"

"Please punish me, Grandma."

Xu Yunxiao hurriedly said.

She knew that Grandma placed great emphasis on face, and to argue back in front of so many people would only make her angrier.

"Good."

The Old Dowager put down her teacup and said, "Well then! Until we get to the bottom of this, you should just take a break at home!"

"A break? We've just started our cooperation with Haohan Company, and there's so much work to be done."

Xu Yunxiao said.

"It's alright, our Xu family is not lacking in capable people, like Jian'er," the Old Dowager said. "During your time off, let Jian'er help you manage the company."

"What?!"

Xu Yunxiao was struck by a bolt from the blue!

She hadn't expected that the Old Dowager's punishment would be so severe, intending to drive her out of the company and allow Xu Changjian to take her place!

Li Cuilan was so angry that she collapsed into her chair, wanting to strangle Qin Feng.

Seeing this, Qin Feng said coldly, "Grandma, Haohan Company explicitly stated that they acknowledge no one but my wife Yunxiao."

"Pfft!"

At this moment, Xu Changjian disdainfully said, "You really think you can scare me with that?"

Xu Yaxin also chuckled and said, "I had inquired about this long ago! Haohan Company contacted Xu Yunxiao because of her friend Shen Lu who became the Deputy General Manager. The Xu family is not the only one that knows Mr. Shen; Brother Jian and Mr. Shen are classmates. If we get back in touch with her, he can fully take on the responsibility!"

"..."

Qin Feng frowned deeply, realizing that they had conspired in advance!

Xu Yunxiao didn't even know what to say.

At this moment, Xu Changjian grinned and said, "Grandma, today is your auspicious day, it's not worth getting angry over them. This is the gift I have prepared for you!"

As he spoke.

He pulled out a large box.

Upon opening it, inside was a cliff juniper.

"Look, everyone! Look at this cliff juniper, it sprouted so many new buds!"

Xu Yaxin called out in surprise. Spot# an e#rro$r? V*i!s+it$ the origin^a.l p*o^st+ on M%&.V*LE+M#P%Y+&$R.&

Everyone else also began to show their astonishment.

"How could there be sprouts on the cliff juniper? It's not even specifically cultivated in the soil!"

"That's right! It's really miraculous, these buds also give off an extraordinary feeling!"

"..."

Xu Changjian said proudly with a smile, "This is called 'Withered Wood Spring,' which I acquired at an auction two days ago for over fourteen million! And it's said to possess spiritual energy. Placing it in your bedroom has many wonderful effects such as calming the mind and boosting vitality..."

"Fourteen million?!"

The crowd was astonished once again.

Who would have thought that he would spend such a generous amount just for Grandma's birthday gift!

Even the Old Dowager couldn't help but be moved to tears, "My good grandson! Truly my good grandson, Grandma's affection for you was not in vain..."

"Grandma, this 'Withered Wood Spring' is not just any ordinary cliff juniper sprouting. I think it must be the handiwork of the Luo Shui Divine Doctor!" Xu Changjian proudly proclaimed, "Because among the Three Great Divine Doctors of Huaxia, only the Luo Shui Divine Doctor has this skill. If you don't believe me, everyone can take a look at the potted plants in the hall."

The guests looked around, becoming even more astonished!

Under the effect of "Withered Wood Spring," the Clivia, Monstera, Qin Ye Rong, Sanwei Palm, and others by the wall were now glowing and vibrantly colorful!

Each leaf reflected a star-like luster!

A picture of thriving life!

"There's probably only the Luo Shui Divine Doctor with such exceptional skill; this must be her handiwork!"

The crowd was thoroughly convinced.

"Withered Wood Spring symbolizes the rejuvenation of life. I wish Grandma a long life of a hundred years, may you live as long as the heavens and experience days like today every year!" Xu Changjian called out proudly.

His voice rang out,

Resounding throughout the entire hall.

"Good, good..."

Tears streamed down the Old Dowager's face, moved by emotion.

The other guests at the moment were all envious of Xu Changjian's ability to find such a treasure.

Only Xu Yunxiao, at this moment, with wide eyes, looking at the cliff juniper, muttered with suspicion, "Why does it look more and more like the one Qin Feng bought a few days ago? But when Qin Feng bought it, it didn't have any young buds on it..."

Of course.

Now is not the time to think about this.

Looking at Xu Changjian giving such a grand gift to grandma, Shuimu Company might be dominated by him again!

When Xu Yunxiao thought of this, she felt depressed in her heart.

"Honey, don't worry, besides you, Haohan Company will not acknowledge anyone else!" Qin Feng said at this time.

"Really, really?" Xu Yunxiao didn't know what to do at the moment. Although it was wishful thinking, only Qin Feng's words could make her feel a bit better.

Hearing this, Xu Changjian coldly shouted, "I'm saying, Qin Feng, are you being an idiot? I've said it, Shen Lu and I are classmates. Are you doubting me? Also, if it weren't for me booking the birthday banquet here, you wouldn't be able to afford a meal at this place in your lifetime. What are you showing off for?"

"Hmph, want to bet? Bet that you'll eat shit?" Qin Feng said.

"You, you…" Thinking of the last bet he lost, where he "accidentally" ate cow dung, his face turned livid with anger, looking for a chance to get back at Qin Feng.

But now, seeing Qin Feng's certain expression, he inexplicably felt a bit scared.

Upon seeing this, Xu Yunxiao felt more and more trust in Qin Feng.

Maybe.

What he said was true, Haohan Company won't negotiate without her...

At this moment.

The grandma holding the "Withered Wood Spring" suddenly fainted in her chair, her body convulsing!

Everyone was shocked and rushed forward.

"Oh no, grandma's heart condition has acted up!" one person called out in panic.

Xu Changjian and others also hurried over, each one more anxious than the last.

Luckily, among the guests who came to celebrate the birthday, there was a famous doctor!

A woman in her twenties with a ponytail, looking very capable and gentle, came over.

People stepped aside to make a path for her.

Her name is Su Ruolan.

She's the granddaughter of Huaxia's most formidable medical professor Su Muqing. Although young, her medical skill has reached the "expert" level and is called a "medical prodigy." She is also a medical specialist being eagerly courted by major hospitals, with few in Lake City surpassing her medical skills.

Moreover, she is extremely beautiful, a real head-turner.

Even Xu Changjian and others couldn't help but stare.

In a moment.

After checking grandma's pulse, Su Ruolan's eyebrows knitted tightly as she said, "It won't work, we can't make it to the hospital in time, she can only hold on for five more minutes!"

"What?!"

The Xu family felt a pang in their hearts.

Xu Changjian was even more desperate, kneeling down and crying to Su Ruolan, "Elder Li, please, you must save my grandma!"

Grandma intended to cultivate him as the family's Manager.

If something happened to her now.

That would be the end of everything!

"It's no use." Su Ruolan sighed with regret, "Her illness has been for a while now, even I am powerless…"

The crowd felt a chill in their hearts.

Even such a renowned doctor saying this, it must be true.

At this time.

Xu Changjian directed his angry accusations towards Qin Feng, shouting, "It's all your fault, if it weren't for you, grandma wouldn't have come to this!"

"Me?" Qin Feng really felt like he was damned.

He hadn't said a word from the start to the finish, how could it be his fault?

"Nonsense!" Xu Changjian pointed at Qin Feng and said, "First, a few days ago, grandma asked you to help Xu Changye, but you refused. She was so mad she fell seriously ill, only recently recovering! Second, just now you gave grandma Medicine Pills as a birthday gift, which upset her greatly! Everyone knows that grandma's heart condition can't handle being upset, yet you deliberately angered her!"

"Yeah, it's all your fault!" Xu Yaxin also joined in, "If anything happens to grandma, you don't deserve to be part of the Xu family. Don't even think about getting a penny from the family!"

Xu Yunxiao's family, upon hearing this, didn't know what to do, utterly anxious.

They were about to be kicked out of the family!

Qin Feng sneered, looking at the anxious and crying Xu Yunxiao who was at a loss and said, "See their true colors now? Do you still want to stay with such a Xu family? Just say the word, and I will take you away, so you will never be bullied by anyone again, letting you shine brightly!"
