He knew very well that his relatives were worried about his grandfather's health or that the old man would not be able to hold on and affect his future.

Some things could be seen through but not exposed. It was fine as long as everyone looked good.

He walked past his Third Aunt to Mother Su. "Mom, don't worry too much," he said in a low voice.

Mother Su covered her face. She was so panicked that she couldn't say a word.

Xu Jishen gently took off his jacket and draped it over her shoulders. Then, he said to her in a low voice, "There's a 'Q' saved on Grandpa's phone. I remember him telling me that he knows a very skilled doctor. He never keeps unfamiliar numbers. That Q should be the miracle doctor Grandpa mentioned.

"I've already contacted the miracle doctor. He replied to my message two hours ago. He said he was on his way here. We'll wait a little longer."

Mother Su looked up at him worriedly. "Will waiting help?"

Xu Jishen's throat was dry, and he was unable to answer her question.

He didn't know if waiting would help, but they had no choice but to wait!

...

An hour later.

Qiao Nian's flight landed at Rao City Airport.

She got off the plane, pulled on the hood of her sweater, and walked toward the road, her hands clasped behind her.

Qiao Nian hailed a taxi. After getting in, she gave the driver the address of the hospital. Only then did she take out her phone from her pocket.

Her phone clicked on.

Ye Wangchuan had called her seven or eight times.

Among them was a missed call from Qin Si.

She did not return anyone's call. She only found her WeChat and sent a message to Ye Wangchuan, telling him that she had successfully arrived in Rao City and was preparing to visit Su Huaiyuan at the hospital.

The airport was a certain distance away from the city hospital. Coupled with the fact that it was close to the evening rush hour, there was a traffic jam on the way.

Qiao Nian was stuck in traffic all the way, so it was already eight in the evening by the time she arrived at the hospital.

It was long after dark outside.

The weather in Rao City had changed drastically in the past few days. It had rained for several days in a row, and it was the same tonight. The sky was so dark that not a star could be seen.

The day was sweltering, and it looked like it might rain.

Qiao Nian lowered her cap and walked straight into the hospital, towards the ICU ward.

...

"Xu Jishen, is the doctor you mentioned not here yet?" The entire Su family was waiting outside the intensive care unit.

Su Huaiyuan was still in danger. They didn't dare to leave, nor could they. They were afraid that they would miss the last chance to see Old Master Su.

No one was willing to leave, but someone couldn't hold back. "Is that doctor coming or not?"

Xu Jishen stayed up all day and night and waited outside like them.

Someone questioned him, and the other relatives of the Su family immediately followed suit.

"That's right. Why isn't that doctor here yet? Jishen, are you sure the other party won't stand us up?" Third Aunt always had something to say. "Let's transfer to another hospital if worst comes to worst!"

Xu Jishen suddenly frowned and his eyes flickered. He was about to say, "How can his grandfather be transferred to another hospital in his current condition?"

Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.

Xu Jishen was a little stunned. His mind was tense, but he also found it unbelievable. He opened his mouth and shouted, "Qiao Nian?!"

Why was Qiao Nian here?

He had never officially interacted with Qiao Nian before, but he had heard a lot about her in private because of Jiang Yao.

He felt that Jiang Yao's cousin was quite impressive.

But now, Qiao Nian had suddenly appeared in Rao City and at the hospital at this critical moment.

And she was walking towards them.
