Su Xiaofei went back inside to look for his mother. He needed to talk to Yun Qingrong and tell him about the invitation he had received to visit the Yun family. Yun Qingrong had the right to know what was going on, and Su Xiaofei needed to see how his mother's reaction to this news was.
He stopped in the hallway and took a calming breath first to stabilize his heartbeat. He had no idea that Lu Qingfeng was able to make his heart beat like this. Even after being reborn, having a hard time, his heart had never been affected this badly.
'Relax, Feifei. It's not like he's asking you to give him an answer immediately.' He closed his eyes and tried to forget the passionate gaze Lu Qingfeng gave him earlier. It was almost the same as the one he had when he held her hand in his previous life, telling her that he loved her.
Even Mo Yuchen's recognition in his previous life could not compare to Lu Qingfeng's recognition. His heart did not beat as fast as he was with Mo Yuchen. His heart did not experience this kind of warmth.
Once he decided that he was calm enough to see his mother, Su Xiaofei once again knocked on the door of the study to announce his return.
"Feifei, is there anything you need?" Yun Qingrong asked. No matter how busy she was these days, she would always leave the work she did to comfort her daughter.
"Mama, actually, I need to talk to you about something." Su Xiaofei sat down in front of his mother.
Yun Qingrong frowned, wondering what made his daughter look so serious now. Is Feifei troubled by the unfinished divorce between her and her husband?
"What's up, baby? Did something happen while I was gone? Is this about Xiao Feng?"
Su Xiaofei shook his head. He did not want to think of Xiao Feng in front of his mother.
"Look, Mama. When Xiao Feng and I went to see Doctor Han for my follow-up, Mr. Ouyang left a letter for me to read. Mama, Grandfather has delivered an invitation to meet me, should I accept it or not ?"
Yun Qingrong retreated and leaned back in his chair. This is far from his initial assumption. He had not expected his father to reach out to his Feifei like this. Did his parents probably hear about Feifei's accident through Master Ouyang?
"Mama?" He heard his daughter ask again and Yun Qingrong was forced to give him a weak smile.
"Didn't you always wonder if Mama had any family or relatives? Feifei, if you want to meet your Grandfather, Mama has no doubts about that, but you must be careful with your words when talking to him and your uncle." He told his daughter.
"Then I'll tell Doctor Han tomorrow, because Qian and I will see him again." Su Xiaofei was satisfied with his mother's reply. As long as his mother wanted to repair the bridge between him and the Yun family, Su Xiaofei was willing to help him.
This was the only thing Su Xiaofei could think of to repay her mother's unconditional love and effort for her sake. Also, this would make it easier to expel Su Haoran from her mother.
Since the shameless man refused to sign the divorce papers, let's see if he didn't succumb to the pressure when the Yun family was involved. Want to bully his mother? Then they better make sure they have the ability first.
The one who has the money is his mother. The one with power and influence was the Yun Family. Compared to them, who were Su Haoran and Ye Xing? Why would Su Xiaofei let the bastard bully them when they had all the resources they needed?
Su Xiaofei would make sure that this time they would not be able to trick his mother. As long as he was around, he would never let them bully his mother like they did in his previous life.
"Mama, can you tell me what Grandpa and Uncle like? I want to bring them something during my visit." He smiled innocently at his mother.
After all, even if he didn't really care about the Yun family, it would be better for him to side with them rather than provoke a tiger in their own lair. If it wasn't for his mother, he wouldn't have bothered to do anything related to them.
Yun Qingrong smiled at his daughter's initiative to make the family happy from the mother's side. Thinking about it, it had been too long since he had seen them and he couldn't help but worry about his father's health.
"Don't worry about what you need to bring with you when visiting. Leave it to your mom, okay?"
"Ah, Mama is really the best! I can't wait to meet them." Su Xiaofei stood up and hugged his mother tightly, raving about how Yun Qingrong should accompany her on her visit, but the older woman knew better to disagree.
Meeting them after nearly two decades of separation won't be easy, at least for her. How could she face her father, now the recent events in her life only prove that her old man was right about her husband all along?
Even now, her bastard husband was still trying to give her a headache by not signing their divorce papers. That scoundrel. Not only did he lie to her while they were still dating, he even kept his other family on the estate he hadn't been to for a long time.
How could he not worry about facing his family now? He could only hope that they would try to accept his Feifei into their family. It would be a joyous event if it happened.
"I'm sure they'll be happy to see you, my dear.." Yun Qingrong smiled at him, a little saddened as he would not be able to introduce his own daughter to his own family.
"It seems Brother Han is a bit busy today." Xi Qian whispered next to Su Xiaofei, while they waited in the waiting room to be summoned by Han Zijun's assistant.
Su Xiaofei's wounds had healed now and today the seams were ready to be removed. It had made him feel uncomfortable for the past few days, but at least not as sick as it was when it was fresh.
"Sister Han is a busy person. It's only natural that people look for it because of its medical expertise, even though the modern medical industry is booming these days." He answers. "Qian, didn't you say you wanted to become a doctor, have you already decided what you want to specialize in?"
“At first I wanted to be a pediatrician because I love interacting with children, but I decided, I wanted to study internal medicine or become a surgeon someday.” Said his best friend with a timid smile, as if Xi Qian was shy about sharing her dream with Su Xiaofei.
"What made you change your mind?" Su Xiaofei asked.
Xi Qian simply smiled. The reason she changed her mind was because she did not want to feel as helpless as when she could not help Su Xiaofei, she said, both after she beat up the homeless man who tried to sexually abuse her as well as when Su Xiaofei was stabbed recently.
When he saw his best friend in such a state, injured and poisoned, Xi Qian desperately wished he knew what to do to ease Su Xiaofei's pain and discomfort.
"You don't have to tell me. If you are truly determined to do so, you have my support, Qian." Su Xiaofei replied, when Xi Qian did not say anything in response.
Just then, they were called to enter Han Zijun's office. The thirty-year-old man furrowed his brows, muttering something vague to himself as the two young women entered his office.
"Sister Han." Su Xiaofei called out, attracting his attention.
"Ah, Miss Su. I'm sorry for the mess. Please sit. Let me take care of this document first." The man hurriedly tidied up his desk and muttered to himself how much he needed someone to help him organize his belongings.
Su Xiaofei only smiled while Xi Qian blinked, wondering how busy a man could make him get a stack of documents that needed his attention.
"So, Miss Su, have you had any fever or pain since your last visit here?" Han Zijun asked as soon as he sat in his chair, glancing at the two young ladies in front of him. "Oh, you didn't come with your girlfriend today."
It immediately changed the expressions of Su Xiaofei and Xi Qian. Su Xiaofei tried to fight the red hue that threatened to bloom on his face by forcing a smile on his face while Xi Qian looked at her best friend suspiciously.
"Sister Han knows how to joke. Xiao Feng was not with me today because he already had an appointment before" Su Xiaofei said.
"I understand." Han Zi Jun nodded. "Then please lie down on the bed and let me take off the seams and clean your wounds."
Su Xiaofei took off his coat and left it with Xi Qian along with their belongings. He took a deep breath and lay down on the bed, lifting his clothes slightly to allow Han Zijun to cut the seams, pulling out his thread. She thought it would be painful, but was shocked when she only felt a tug on her skin.
"Your wounds are healing well, Miss Su. And this is a special topical ointment that you requested on your last visit. As I said before, you have to diligently apply it on your wound to stop it from scarred. It may take some time to see results, so don't panic if you don't notice the difference immediately." Han Zijun said, before pushing the small container towards Su Xiaofei as soon as he sat next to Xi Qian again.
"Thank you, Brother Han." Su Xiaofei politely thanked him. "By the way, I'm ready to give you a reply at Mr. Ouyang's invitation. My mom just agreed to it." He then wrote down his number on a piece of paper and gave it to Han Zijun.
"This is my number. They can call and tell me anytime after they decide when we should meet."
"alright. Mr. Ouyang should be here tonight. I'll pass on your answer to him." The doctor then placed the paper on a cork board next to it.
"Sister Han, what is General Yun like? Even though he's my grandfather, I've never met him before." Su Xiaofei asked him. If Lord Ouyang frequented here, there was a chance that Old Master Yun would also know this place.
"Oh, he is a person of principle and is known to have an iron hand not only towards his subordinates, but also towards his children. I met him for a while when I was my uncle's student. Look, Miss Su , this place originally belonged to my uncle who took care of me when I was a child. He has a lot of VIP patients and that includes your grandfather."
"I understand.." Su Xiaofei sighed inwardly. It seemed like he could not dig up any information about the old man.
As they exited the pharmacy, they were greeted by Su Xiaofei's new bodyguard. One male, the other female. Xi Qian had seen them before, but he wasn't sure if they were a replacement for Feifei's bodyguards before.
"Aunt Qing has finally changed your bodyguards?" Xi Qian asked. Ever since Su Xiaofei was stabbed, his two useless bodyguards had previously been dismissed by Yun Qingrong.
"No. Xiao Feng offered both of them as my temporary bodyguards.." Su Xiaofei answered him.
