My Little Sweet Wife Chapter 403

"There's no need. They will find you if they need anything. For now, I am not sure whether the opponent's target is you or not, and even if you are, maybe the opponent has seized Zihao's weakness. Ruolan, you Zihao's biggest weakness right now."
Actually, everyone knew how much the Old Man cared for his grandson. No one spoke for a while, and they all fell silent when they saw the Old Man's pained expression.
Jiang Ruolan was actually thinking of someone, but she was not sure. At a time like this, she can't cause problems, so she didn't talk much. Suddenly, she saw Cui Liuxian standing in front of the door.
She immediately became suspicious. However, seeing Cui Liuxian's worried expression as she looked at Xian Zihao, Jiang Ruolan immediately dispelled the doubts in her heart. Still, she felt that something was wrong.
"Liuxian, there is no need for you to be here now. Go outside and ask Miss Zhou to leave. Senior Zhou can't rush here because he is in G City for now, but he had already called to offer his condolences. No matter what, we have to accept that family's intentions." Zhan An looked at Cui Liuxian and said softly.
Cui Liuxian didn't say anything. She merely bit her lips, looked worriedly at Xian Zihao on the bed, yet didn't dare to move forward. She nodded obediently, turned around, and walked out.
"Ruolan, last week when you and Zihao went back to G City, who did you meet?" Old Man Xian suddenly spoke hesitantly. His tone was also a bit serious.
Jiang Ruolan paused and was about to speak when Xian Zihao, who was in a deep coma, appeared to be moving.
"Zihao, are you awake?" Jiang Ruolan was stunned as she looked down at his fingers that she had been holding in her hands the whole time. She saw that his fingers had indeed moved a little. "Zihao, can you hear me? Zihao?"
Upon hearing Jiang Ruolan's words, Old Man Xian and Zhan An immediately took a few steps forward, carefully looking at Xian Zihao on the bed.

However, Xian Zihao's fingers only moved a little and stopped. Jiang Ruolan's originally happy expression immediately disappeared. She looked at Xian Zihao's pale face and clenched her fingers tightly.
"I'll call the doctor." After Zhan An finished her sentence, she quickly walked out of the ward. Old Man Xian stood to the side and sighed with emotion.
Not long after, Cui Liuxian walked in again. "Grandfather, you and Ruolan must be tired. What if I take care of Zihao?"
Jiang Ruolan glanced at Cui Liuxian, and before the Old Man could open his mouth, she immediately rejected her offer, "No need, I'm not tired. It's only right and proper for a wife to take care of her husband. Even if I'm tired, I don't need to trouble you to do anything about it."
"You ..." Cui Liuxian immediately raised her eyebrows and whispered, "Jiang Ruolan, you really don't know what is good for you. I tried to help Zihao."
Jiang Ruolan did not dare to accept Cui Liuxian's help. She stared at her without batting an eyelid. "You have never taken care of a person before and always needed people to take care of you since you were young. I do not dare to trouble you with this. Moreover, I'm not ready to part with Zihao."
Jiang Ruolan then looked at the thoughtful Old Man. "Grandpa, please forgive my selfishness this time. Zihao had just passed through a dangerous period. I really don't want to leave him."
Old Man Xian nodded. "Of course I understand." Then, he looked at Cui Liuxian and said, "Liuxian, you really don't know how to take care of people. Go back and take care of your plants. There is no need for you to be here. Right, has Miss Zhou left?"
Cui Liuxian was a little reluctant. She still bit her lip and said softly, "She's already left. I said you asked her to go back to rest. She seemed to have understood something and left without saying anything else."
Old Man Xian acknowledged and said, "It's good that she left. Otherwise, Miss Zhou will continue waiting outside. If Senior Zhou finds out, there might be more trouble. Luckily, Miss Zhou didn't force our Xian Family too much."

To outsiders, Zhou Shufen was a reasonable, beautiful, and generous woman but in front of her, she was just a proud, arrogant woman and tragic loser who treated relationships as games.
Jiang Ruolan didn't want to think about it anymore, so she didn't interrupt Old Man Xian's talk.
Only after Cui Liuxian had left did the Old Man walk towards her again. He stood by the bed and looked down at her. "Who exactly did you meet the last time you were in G City? Tell me everything."
Jiang Ruolan knew that she couldn't hide it from Old Man Xian anymore, so she told him everything that had happened before and after, excluding the fact that she had seen Jia Zhenzhen in the cemetery.
This was because Jiang Ruolan knew the cause of the accident was her. Jia Zhenzhen might have misunderstood the Xian Family and said those strange words that day, but she wouldn't hurt her.
Old Man Xian frowned at this. He seemed to think of something and looked closer at Jiang Ruolan's expression. "Are you telling the truth?"
After seeing Jiang Ruolan nodded her head, Old Man Xian narrowed his eyes. "Looks like this has something to do with the Jiang Family. No matter how I think about it, I will never imagine that they will be truly ruthless."
Jiang Ruolan chuckled, "Grandfather, everything is just a guess. If it's really as we thought, I'm afraid they would already know that the one injured is Zihao. They should be even more nervous than us right now."
"That's right. Child, leave the matter to me. You can stay at ease with Zihao. When he wakes up, you must notify me immediately."
After Old Man Xian said this, he took out his cell phone and made a call. Then, he turned around and walked out.
Jiang Ruolan got up to send the Old Man. When she saw the Old Man enter the elevator and as she was about to return to the ward, Jiang Ruolan immediately noticed that Cui Liuxian hadn't left. She also saw Jiang Yijun standing at the end of the corridor, smoking.
Jiang Yijun looked very annoyed.
Jiang Ruolan frowned. Since when did Jiang Yijun smoke so much?
She quickly walked towards him. As she got closer, she heard Cui Liuxian's words, "When Jiang Ruolan fainted and you carried her, grandpa saw it! If it wasn't for Zihao saving her at that time, and if it wasn't for the fact that grandfather didn't have the mood to think about the relationship between you two siblings, do you think you two would still be able to be so relaxed?"
"Also, Xian Yijun, so what if I stole that photo last time? What can you do to me? Don't think you can step on me just because you're surnamed Xian!"
"You are worse than me! Don't pretend to be so arrogant all the time! I, Cui Liuxian, am willing to cooperate with you! Don't put on an open front with me. Do you think I don't know that you were the one who caused the ancestral hall to collapse? We are all the same people, why are you avoiding me?"
Jiang Yijun immediately pinched a cigarette and looked at Cui Liuxian expressionlessly, as if he didn't care about her mockery and provocation. "Are you done? Then, you can leave."
"Xian Yijun!" Cui Liuxian angrily shouted and was about to hit him.
At this moment, Jiang Ruolan already walked over. "Yijun."
When Jiang Yijun saw her, he went straight to her and didn't bother to look at Cui Liuxian again. Cui Liuxian stared at him and bit her lip angrily. "You'll see what will happen!"
Only after Cui Liuxian ran down the stairs did Jiang Ruolan ask seriously, "What's wrong? Why is Cui Liuxian looking for you?"
