Right after Xiao Zhen finished speaking, he imdiately felt sothing was off. No, that wasn’t right. Since she was his own daughter, why did he have to tell the person beside him "you’re welco"?
"No need to thank . Yiyi is my daughter anyway, there’s no need to thank at all. It’s just that my kid wanted to see you. Once Yiyi wakes up, you hurry up and leave. I don’t want to see you anyway."
Hearing Xiao Zhen’s words, Xu Ke didn’t get angry this ti. If it hadn’t been for what Xiao Zhen said today, maybe sothing really would have happened to Xiao Keyi. But Xiao Zhen’s attitude had changed quite a bit now; at least Xu Ke could clearly feel it.
"Even if you don’t want to see , there’s nothing you can do. After all, you might have to see a lot in the future."
Anyway, once Wang Cuixia showed up, everything would beco clear. By then, even if Xiao Zhen didn’t want to see him, he’d still have to see him every day.
Xiao Zhen found this sentence baffling, but in his tsundere way he just snorted coldly, turned his head away, and ignored Xu Ke.
The nurse ca out, and seeing the two of them like this, she suddenly didn’t know who she should talk to.
She simply tossed out one line: "The patient is out of danger."
The two people sitting back-to-back on the chairs suddenly stood up at the sa ti and headed toward the ward. The nurse was startled when she saw this.
Inside, Xiao Keyi had already woken up, and she was also startled when she saw her dad and Xu Ke appear at the sa ti. Her dad and Xu Ke had never gotten along—how could these two possibly co together?
"Yiyi, thank goodness you’re okay. Otherwise your dad would’ve blad himself to death. It’s all my fault, for not noticing you were in danger at the first mont."
As Xiao Zhen spoke, his old tears were already flowing. Not caring who else was present, Xiao Keyi reached out and wiped her dad’s tears.
"Dad, I’m fine. But what on earth happened to your head? And why is it wrapped up like this?"
As she spoke, Xiao Keyi looked at Xu Ke half in doubt. After all, under the influence of the drug, she had no mory of what had happened at the ti.
"Xu Ke, what exactly did you do to my dad? He’s my father after all. No matter what, that’s an unchangeable fact."
Seeing his daughter push everything onto Xu Ke, Xiao Zhen’s heart lifted. This punk had been giving him a headache over how to deal with him, and now his daughter was helping her father uphold justice.
Before Xu Ke could speak, Xiao Zhen imdiately started complaining: "My dear daughter, I was holding you in my arms when I brought you to the hospital, wanting to explain the situation to him. But not only did he not want to listen at all, he even beat up like this. That’s just going too far. And look at the wound on your dad’s head—will it leave a scar? Even though your dad is old, if it leaves a scar, how am I supposed to attend etings in the future, how am I supposed to face those old foxes at Headquarters? It really ruins my image."
As he spoke, Xiao Zhen even lowered his head.
Looking at her dad’s head wrapped layer after layer, Xiao Keyi felt a bit helpless. If Xu Ke had spoken up, maybe she would have believed him. But seeing her dad so eager to see Xu Ke make a fool of himself, he really was being too impatient.
And although there was a lot of gauze wrapped around her dad’s head, from the way he was talking, it didn’t seem like anything serious.
"Alright, Dad, stop making a fuss. Besides, I actually don’t think Xu Ke would hurt you. If he wanted to hurt you, he would’ve done it long ago—why wait until now?"
Seeing his daughter not believe him made Xiao Zhen genuinely jealous of the place Xu Ke held in her heart, but there was nothing he could do. He could only sit up straight.
He turned his head to look at Xu Ke, anger rising again. What was this young man so happy about? Was he gloating over his misfortune?
"Now that Yiyi is awake, don’t you still have things to do? Hurry up and leave, stop blocking up the place. You’re polluting the air here; just looking at you annoys ."
Xiao Zhen was especially angry, but Xu Ke clearly didn’t take his words to heart. He directly pulled over a chair and sat down on the other side of Xiao Keyi.
"How is it? Do you feel anything else uncomfortable now? If you feel anything wrong, you have to say it, don’t hold it in."
Xiao Keyi shook her head, feeling especially warm inside. She hadn’t expected her dad to actually call Xu Ke over, and now the relationship between her dad and Xu Ke seed to have eased up a lot.
Xiao Zhen was fuming at the mont. He hadn’t expected this young man to still be chatting away with his daughter. This brat had no sha, still sitting here. What was he supposed to do? He felt like he no longer had any status in his daughter’s heart.
Yet at the sa ti, Xu Ke naturally knew that Xiao Zhen was unhappy with him. But shouldn’t Xiao Zhen be out investigating what happened right now? Sitting here didn’t seem like sothing Chairman Xiao would do.
"Alright, Chairman Xiao, didn’t you say you still had things to investigate? You absolutely can’t let Su Zining get away with this. Anyone who could do this kind of thing to your daughter clearly isn’t reliable, and you wouldn’t dare entrust your daughter to him. Why not just entrust her to ? You should go take a look now."
Hearing Xu Ke’s words, although Xiao Zhen was very angry, this brat did have a point. If he really didn’t go check things out, who knew how Su Zining might start jumping around again.
"Fine, I’ll go take a look. But if you dare pull anything shady on like he did, just you wait till I get back and deal with you. And if anything happens, Yiyi, you have to call . Don’t you dare go easy on him just because you like this brat."
Seeing Xiao Keyi agree, Xiao Zhen finally went out.
"Don’t be fooled by what my dad looks like. My dad’s actually a good person, he’s just a bit tsundere as a whole. I hope you don’t take it to heart."
"From what I can see, his attitude toward you seems a lot better now. You two... is there sothing I don’t know about?"
Seeing Xiao Keyi ask, and since there was nothing else to do anyway, Xu Ke told her in detail about Xiao Zhen going to the branch office.
"Hahaha, I didn’t expect my dad to go to the branch office all full of confidence to cause you trouble, only to find out all those rumors were fake, and you even slapped him in the face with it. No wonder that even though he still has an issue with you now, he must’ve already acknowledged your ability deep down."
As she spoke, Xiao Keyi held Xu Ke’s hand, feeling like the two of them had finally made it through the worst: "Before, I thought the two of us were impossible, but now everything seems to be moving in a good direction. Don’t be fooled by how my dad dislikes mismatched backgrounds—he’s actually the softest-hearted person. Especially when it cos to things that are good for , my dad will never refuse."
"As long as he sees your ability, he’ll let go of all his prejudices. As for what happened before, I hope you can forgive my dad. And I’ll help you demand justice from him on your behalf."
Since this was his future father-in-law, Xu Ke hadn’t dared to go too far before, but he hadn’t expected that Xiao Keyi had kept all of this in mind.
