Uncle Tang was speechless. The old lady obviously spoke up for Gu Nuan.
Old Madam Xiao understood clearly and said, "So, you don’t need to say anything. I said I gave the Xiao Family heirloom to her. If the chairman has anything to say, let him come to me."
Speaking of Xiao Jianming, he was actually just next door, and it was impossible for him not to have heard anything. Everyone in the room suspected that Xiao Jianming was just pretending to be clueless and actually knew everything.
Since no major commotion came from next door, it could only mean Xiao Jianming tacitly approved of Old Madam Xiao’s decision.
Seeing the elder return, without speaking out about the Xiao Family’s affairs with Gu Nuan, everyone working in the Xiao Family understood that this time, Gu Nuan truly had the decisive say in the household.
Zhao Mengjin gently lifted the quilt to see if her grandfather was really asleep on the bed. Perhaps knowing his mother had returned safely, he could sleep peacefully.
The old lady next door, having been tied up for so many days, was exhausted and fell asleep as soon as she lay down, not even allowing the doctor to examine her.
This made Uncle Tang a little nervous. But the Xiao butler waved his hand and said, "Don’t worry, we have the world’s most famous doctor here, no fear of death."
Everyone had witnessed Tang Sili’s skills tonight. No one would doubt that this cunning professor could see through anything, as long as it concerned the patient’s health.
After Zhao Mengjin got up, she tiptoed downstairs.
She was worried about Gu Nuan, almost worried the whole night.
Back downstairs, she saw Tang Sili in the living room taking Gu Nuan’s blood pressure.
Gu Nuan always had low blood pressure, concerning Tang Sili, who was a doctor.
"Did you take the medicine?" Tang Sili asked.
"I took it in the car," Gu Nuan replied.
"Drink something hot, try to eat more, and maintain your strength. The main issue now is you’ve been eating too little."
Under so much pressure, can one really eat more?
Zhao Mengjin turned around and saw the Xiao butler coming out with a bowl of hot soup. She walked over to take the soup herself, asking softly, "Is this soup safe?"
After the incident with the cook, everyone had to be overly cautious about food.
The Xiao butler said, "The head chef and I made it ourselves; we wouldn’t dare let anyone else do it."
The precious great-grandson in Gu Nuan’s belly is something no one could afford to lose!
Still not at ease, Zhao Mengjin took a spoon and tasted the soup herself. Only when she felt it was fine did she hand it over to Gu Nuan.
Gu Nuan saw her and asked, "Why aren’t you sleeping?"
"Now that Aunt is back, I fear missing anything if I go to sleep."
Zhao Mengjin’s words made sense.
Gu Nuan couldn’t help but be amused by her cleverness and said, "I have you here to keep an eye on things. Do you find it boring?"
"How could that be? Aunt is setting things up, letting me wait for the right moment. Last night, I had the chance to shine. I can’t thank Aunt enough," Zhao Mengjin expressed slightly excitedly. Being able to catch the person who made her mother suffer made her feel the pent-up frustration of these days had finally found a release, with pride and relief.
"Alright, since you feel you can be of help here, keep a watch for me."
"Is Aunt going back to the company?" Zhao Mengjin asked.
"I definitely have to go back," Gu Nuan said, feeling that this young girl in front of her was indeed a young lady, still naive. "If the company collapses, everyone here would have nothing to survive on, living off the northwest wind. Being an entrepreneur is not as easy as ordinary people think. It’s not just about taking money and enjoying life as a boss."
