Chapter 33: Grandpa Is Very Satisfied with His Daughter-in-law

Inside the hospital room...

Mr. Si eagerly awaited, hoping to catch a glimpse of two figures he had longed to see.

"Grandpa, Yan Yan and I are here to see you," Si Yechen's voice rang out, clear and crisp.

But the old man's gaze didn't linger for a second on his own grandson; it was completely glued to the young girl!

"The girl who saved me twice, is it you?" Master Si didn't expect this girl to be so delicately beautiful. During the two previous life-threatening incidents, he hadn't paid much attention, but now he noticed her exquisite beauty and a naturally cold charm, which made her outstanding.

One could only say that Ah Chen was incredibly lucky!

"Hello, Grandpa Si," Ou Yan greeted politely as soon as she entered the room.

Her demeanor was graceful, her features lively. Although her icy aura had softened considerably in front of the old man, her ethereal aura still set her apart.

"Silly child, why call me Grandpa Si, so formal? We are family, just call me Grandpa!" Mr. Si was immensely satisfied with her, beaming as he said, "You are Ah Chen's fiancée, so naturally, you can call me Grandpa just like him!"

Ou Yan: ...

She and Si Yechen were at most acquaintances; they weren't even close to being engaged.

"I heard from Qing Mu that you are the lost kin of the Li family. The day you were supposed to return to the Li family, you saved me... Yesterday, after I drank that soup, I ended up in the operating room, and you brought me back from the brink of death! Counting, you've saved me twice."

What a wonderful fate!

If not for this girl, he would have reported to the netherworld long ago! How would he have the chance to meet his daughter-in-law here?

"During your eighteen years away, you must have suffered," Mr. Si remarked.

Ou Yan was about to say she hadn't suffered much when he continued, "In the future, both the Li family and the Si family will take extra care of you!"

Ou Yan: ...

She could understand the Li family, but would the Si family be overly indulgent?

"Your name is Li Ou Yan, right? Not only does it sound nice, but you also look good." Mr. Si seemed to be saying it for the butler, Old Wen, to hear.

Old Wen nodded with a smile. This girl indeed looked much more pleasing to the eye than Li Yusha. She had no hint of coyness and was a very special girl.

"Look at me, so caught up in talking, I forgot to ask you to come over here, child." Mr. Si reached out to pat the double sofa by the bed.

Si Yechen's eyes shimmered. Was this sofa newly bought? Was it meticulously arranged just for him and the girl to sit together?

Old Wen smiled awkwardly, "Young Master, are you sitting too?!"

Si Yechen didn't show any displeasure and naturally sat beside the girl.

Now it was Mr. Si's turn to be surprised. Did his grandson treat this girl differently?!

"Yan Yan, Qing Mu said you just finished the college entrance exam. Is there any university you want to attend? Grandpa will arrange it for you!"

Ou Yan replied obediently, "Not for now."

"Then how about Jing University? I know the president of Jing University!"

Seeing the girl being cared for even after finishing her college entrance exam, Si Yechen changed the topic, "Did you take your medicine today?"

As soon as medicine was mentioned, Mr. Si frowned deeply, "That Chinese medicine is horribly bitter! It's so hard to drink! Who knows who prescribed it; whoever drinks it will immediately choke!"

Everyone silently looked at Ou Yan.

Only to hear the girl calmly say, "I prescribed it."

Mr. Si's expression exploded. He hadn't expected his granddaughter-in-law to not only treat illnesses and perform surgeries but also prescribe medicine...

He immediately changed his tone, "Although it was a bit bitter at first, good medicine tastes bitter. It's good for the illness. After drinking it, have a piece of candy, and it'll immediately sweeten your heart, just like the care my granddaughter-in-law shows me..."

"Then you should drink it," Si Yechen interjected nonchalantly.

Mr. Si, with a grand air, exclaimed, "Old Wen, bring me the medicine! I was going to drink it anyway, but seeing my granddaughter-in-law happy, I forgot to drink it!"

What a lie!

Even Old Wen didn't want to expose it!

Just a moment ago, when Miss Ou Yan wasn't here, you complained about the medicine. It was so bitter that ghosts wouldn't want to taste it, and people would rather hang themselves than drink it. How come now?

Would you dare to say it again in front of Miss Ou Yan?

"My granddaughter-in-law prescribed the medicine, and I can drink three big bowls of it!"

Ou Yan: ...

There's no need to drink so much...

Old Wen brought the thermos of Chinese medicine to Mr. Si's bedside. Mr. Si immediately raised it to his lips and downed it in one gulp!

His manner was particularly hearty!

"It's really delicious!"

Qing Mu saw that the wrinkles on the old man's forehead had creased deeply, a pitiful sight.

Old Wen also knew that the taste of this Chinese medicine was beyond description, but there was no choice. The person who prescribed it was right here!

Moreover, drinking the medicine was good for the body!

"How are you feeling today?" Ou Yan asked with concern.

"When you and Ah Chen come to see me, all my pain goes away, and I feel better!" Mr. Si exclaimed joyfully. But then suddenly, he clutched his chest, looking uncomfortable.

Ou Yan hadn't had the chance to check his pulse when she saw him bend over and spit out a mouthful of blood.

Everyone was shocked!

"Grandpa?"

"Old Master, are you okay?"

"What's going on? Old Master, wait, I'll call the doctor!"

"Miss Ou Yan is a doctor. Miss Ou Yan, please take a look at the Old Master and see what's wrong with him?"

Ou Yan reached out to check his pulse and seemed to sense something. She raised her clear eyes, "Have you been drinking alcohol?"

Si Yechen and Qing Mu immediately looked at Mr. Si, unbelieving!

"No... I didn't drink..." Mr. Si realized this couldn't be concealed anymore and admitted reluctantly, "Just a little."

Ou Yan raised an eyebrow, "A little? You finished a bottle?"

"How did you know?" Mr. Si looked at her incredulously. How could she tell? Wasn't this beyond being just a medical expert; she was practically a deity?!

Ou Yan smirked, "The bottle was empty."

Mr. Si turned to look, and the bottle hidden in the bedcovers had somehow been exposed. He quickly glanced at Old Wen and accused in a low voice, "Didn't I tell you to hide it properly!"

"I... I didn't expect it to be exposed..." Old Wen's smile was awkward. With the arrival of Master Si and Miss Ou Yan, he didn't have time to hide it!

"Grandpa," Si Yechen's deep voice carried a hint of displeasure.

Knowing his grandson was about to lecture him again...

Mr. Si hurriedly waved his hand, "Alright, alright, I know. I was just craving it for a moment! Greedy! With my granddaughter daughter-in-law here, she can testify that I won't do it again next time."

Si Yechen raised his eyebrows coldly, "Can your words be trusted?"

"Of course! Why not?" Mr. Si hurriedly replied, "If you don't believe me, have my daughter-in-law come over every day to check if I've drunk or not!"

Si Yechen turned to the girl next to him, "I think it's necessary to prescribe a few more doses of medicine for Grandpa to recuperate."

"Don't!" 

The medicine earlier was more bitter than his life!

Prescribe more, and he'll die on the spot!!

"Who let you be greedy?" Si Yechen teased, "Didn't you say you could drink three big bowls of medicine prescribed by your granddaughter-in-law?"
