My Sweet Physician Wife Calls The Shots

"However, if you still insist on provoking the Chi family 20 years later, don't blame the Chi family for not showing you any mercy!"

After saying that, Old Master Chi could not be bothered to look at Pei Jiaxiang's expression. Had he gotten frightened into retreating, or was his face written full of dissatisfaction like an unkillable cockroach? Either way, none of it concerned Old Master Chi. He turned around, led Nuannuan toward the elevator, and descended the building.

After all, the old master made up his mind this time and was a man of his words.

Seeing that her grandfather was still fuming, Nuannuan affectionately nuzzled Old Master Chi's arm like a little kitten. She said, "Grandpa, why must you get so angry at a person like that? He doesn't even deserve to be compared to Big Brother Chi Yang! How stupid or damaged my brain has to be to get bewitched by a guy like him? Look at his puffy face, I nearly failed to stop myself from setting a dog loose at his face. I definitely won't be interested in something that even dogs would eat."

"Then... what if he's good-looking and outstanding?" Old Master Chi asked in a pitiful tone.

Even though Nuannuan did not know what happened 20 years ago that made her Grandpa, who had always been kind and open-minded, treat the Pei family in such a manner, she detected the sadness that seeped out from his heart despite sounding like he was joking.

While she was surprised that such a problem would befall the Chi family too, Nuannuan replied firmly, "Grandpa, no one can separate Big Brother Chi Yang and me in this lifetime. If one day, Big Brother Chi Yang's gone, you have nothing to worry about. I'll definitely join him down there. We'll still be with each other even if we have to go to another world."

"Huh! God forbid! God forbid!" The old master hurriedly exclaimed. "Hurry up and repeat after me!"

Nuannuan immediately shouted righteously, "God forbid!"

"Little Girl, you're not allowed to say such things in the future, okay? You and Chi Yang have to be well! Do you hear me?"

Seeing that her Grandpa was on the brink of tears, Nuannuan regretted what she said and nodded immediately.

"Grandpa, don't you worry. Big Brother Chi Yang and I will definitely live to 100 years old! Then, we'll bring our family to greater heights."

With Nuannuan's assurances, the old master's anger finally dissipated.

In the ward, Leng Jinjie glanced at Leng Jinchen and said, "Little Sister, there are a lot of things to handle at the company. Now that Dad has fallen, we can only leave everything to you. You should hurry back to the company and deal with everything. If Dad and Mom wake up, we'll inform you immediately."

"Hur hur, Leng Jinjie, I've been the company's vice-president for so many years. There's no need for you to treat me like a three-year-old, is there? Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? When I'm gone, you'll try to convince Big Brother to give you his 20% shares, right? Dream on!"

Leng Jinjie did not get mad at Leng Jinchen for exposing her in public. Instead, she smiled.

"Little Sister, you've been the vice-president of the company for so many years, so you should know one thing--the Leng family is a second-tier wealthy family and is ranked at the top among the second-tier wealthy families. Have you ever wondered why? Firstly, that's because Big Brother is the Commander-in-chief. He has the power and influence of the military. Naturally, that puts our Leng family at a much higher status than other second-tier wealthy families. Secondly, of course, it's thanks to the symbiotic relationship with the Pei family. As a second-tier wealthy family like the Leng family, the Pei family's influence mustn't be overlooked.

"However, you know that already, don't you? I'm not jinxing Big Brother here. Of course, I hope that Big Brother remains healthy, but the doctor has already informed us that his condition will only continue to worsen over time. Recovering is impossible."
