Lu Xi laughed at his words, "Do I think I have lived too long and dare to steal from you?"

"Am I that terrible in your mind?"

"It's not bad, it's a bit baffling."

Li Sihan, "..."

When the two arrived at their destination, the door of the ancient house was locked tightly, and there was silence and darkness inside.

Lu Xi's anxious palms became sweaty, "Aren't you at home?"

"Go back and come back tomorrow." With that, Li Sihan was about to hold her hand.

Lu Xi pulled back his hand and refused to let him hold it, "No, I have to wait."

"Would you wait until dawn? If you come back tomorrow morning, the result will be the same?"

"If I don't go back, what if someone leaves in the middle of the night?" Lu Xi said stubbornly.

Li Sihan's face darkened, "You're just waiting all the time without sleeping?"

"I'm not going back."

"Be obedient." His tone was gentler.

But Lu Xi was still stubborn. She sat on the boulder next to her and said, "Chu Rao's illness cannot be delayed any longer."

"It's such a cold day, what should you do if you get sick?"

"Will not."

Li Sihan took off his black coat and put it on her, "Not obedient at all."

Lu Xi looked at his thin shirt and couldn't bear it, "I'm not cold, please take it back quickly."

"If you don't obey again, I will take you back." Li Sihan said sternly.

He sat down and held her in his arms, still holding the little girl to keep warm.

A sneaky voice appeared in the courtyard. He lay on the crack of the door and looked out, "Sister, sister, is it you?"

Lu Xi heard the voice and turned to look, "Zhang Minghao?"

"It's me." Zhang Minghao took out the key and opened the door, "Sister, come in with me."

There was a smile on Lu Xi's lips, and there was a light of hope in his eyes, "Is your grandpa at home?"

Since the last time we met, she had makeup on her face, so she came dressed up this time, just in case the little guy wouldn't recognize her.

"Yes." Zhang Mingxuan's eyes fell on the extremely handsome man, "But grandpa said he would only let you in."

"it is good."

"No." Li Sihan pulled her back, "I'm not worried."

Lu Xi broke away from his hand and said, "It's okay, we'll keep in touch on the phone."

Li Sihan's black eyes were filled with coldness, "What if there is danger inside?"

"If I don't come out in twenty minutes, bring your bodyguards in to find me."

Zhang Mingxuan blinked his round eyes and said hurriedly, "Don't worry, sister will be fine. Grandpa just doesn't like too many people disturbing him. He likes to be quiet."

"Now I am begging others to do things. Of course I have to listen to their arrangements." Lu Xi relieved his manic and depressed mood.

"Fifteen minutes." Li Sihan was worried, but still took a step back. I really didn't know what this old man was thinking.

Zhang Minghao took Lu Xi's hand and said, "Sister, come with me."

Li Sihan looked at him displeased, "No holding hands."

Zhang Minghao stuck out his tongue and said provocatively, "You're not her boyfriend, why do you care so much?"

"You..." Li Sihan's face looked ugly, and he couldn't refute a word.

The ancient house was an old-fashioned villa with a certain period feel. Lu Xi followed Zhang Minghao and walked in.

Lying on the couch was an old man wearing a Chinese tunic suit. He slowly opened his cloudy eyes and said, "Here he is."

Lu Xi stood not far away and nodded politely, "Hello, grandpa, I want to ask you to save my friend this time."

"Why?" The old man sat up. He had regular features and wrinkles on his face, and looked very difficult to get along with.

"The doctor is kindhearted."

"It's a joke, I don't." The old man lay back again, closed his eyes and fell asleep, saying, "You go away, I won't save anyone."

"I can give you a lot of money, how much do you want?"

The old man said nonchalantly, "I look very poor and need money?"

Zhang Minghao ran over in a hurry, opened his grandfather's eyes with his little hand, "Grandpa, please help sister."

The old man patted the back of his head and said, "What benefit has she given you?"

"I told my sister last time that grandpa is a miracle doctor. If you don't save her, wouldn't I be breaking your promise?"

The old man patted him on the back of the head again, "So it's you, kid."

Lu Xi was a little anxious, and took out Chu Rao's illness list and handed it over, "Grandpa, if you have any requests, please feel free to ask. My friend's illness really can't be delayed any longer."

"It can be saved, it depends on whether you have the sincerity."

"You say."

The old man got up and walked to a cabinet, opened the drawer, and took out a medicine bottle. "Take this first. It can delay the treatment for a week."

Lu Xi stepped forward to take it.

The old man continued, "Stay here with me during this period, and you are not allowed to go out even half a step. Depending on your performance, I will consider whether to save you or not."

Lu Xi really wanted to ask why, because he was afraid of accidentally saying the wrong thing and offending him.

There was a look of scrutiny in the old man's eyes, "You are very good at disguise, but you can't fool me. You can see people with your true face."

"..."

Another Waterloo.

Lu Xi nodded and agreed to his request, "What should I call you?"

The old man snorted coldly, "Whatever you want to call it."

Zhang Minghao said hurriedly, "My grandfather's name is Bai Jianghe, you can just call him Grandpa Bai."

"Grandpa Bai." Lu Xi called him politely. After thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be something wrong. Zhang Minghao's surname was Zhang, so why was his grandfather's surname Bai?

However, Lu Xi quickly gave up this thought and wondered what this had to do with her.

"Grandpa, is it okay if I go back and talk to my family tonight, otherwise they will be worried." Lu Xi said a lot in one breath, and his tone was extremely humble. The feeling of asking for help was not pleasant at all. As long as he could save Chu Of course, this humbleness is nothing.

"Is this your boyfriend who came with you?" Bai Jianghe asked.

"No, he is my brother."

"Who is in your family?"

Lu Xi was stunned for a moment, why did she check her household registration? After thinking about it, she said, "My brother and I will depend on each other for life."

Zhang Minghao showed sympathy innocently, "Sister, my grandfather will be your grandfather from now on, so you can have a family."

Bai Jianghe patted the back of his head and said, "You brat, you know how to arrange for me in one day. If you go out to show off again in the future, you will treat this person."

"Grandpa, how can I have that ability? Let my elder brother inherit it." Zhang Mingxuan thought for a while and couldn't help but teased, "Forget it, this loser has been following the business model in the past few years, and your old guard is about to be killed. He ruined it."

Bai Jianghe looked serious and said coldly, "No one makes me worry."

"Grandpa, do you think that if the eldest brother continues like this, we will live on the streets?" Zhang Minghao was very worried, because the eldest brother did not have the diamond and insisted on taking the porcelain job.

Bai Jianghe kicked him on the butt, "Is this what you should worry about? Go and do your homework."
