He had loved and respected his aunt since he was young.

She was like his second mother.

How could Ji Nan take it when Xie Tingyun had an evil illness?

"Speaking of which, Ji Xiao called me just now. He said he knows Master Carlo from the Overseas Medical Association and asked if I wanted him to ask for help. He can invite Master Carlo over. I haven't agreed to it yet, but with your aunt's situation, I…"

Xie Yun was from a prestigious family, after all.

Although she was not as talented as Xie Tingyun, she was not a rich lady who only knew how to dress up.

Being in the center of power, she naturally understood some people's thoughts and tricks.

Xie Yun took a deep breath and looked at Ji Nan with a serious expression. After some thinking, she said, "Ji Xiao would never call me for no reason. I think the person who knows Master Carlo is not him, but Ji Ziyin."

She smiled. However, her smile was quite disdainful as she looked down on Ji Ziyin's dark tricks. "Hmph, she sure knows how to use her brain. She knows that your aunt's identity is special and wants to use this opportunity to rope in the Nan family! Your uncle-in-law's family has never participated in the Independent Continent's power struggles. However, your uncle-in-law might be willing to owe her a huge favor if she can help your aunt. Then, she can rise to the next level in the Ji family…"

"It doesn't matter. I don't care about these things." Ji Nan didn't care much.

Xie Yun was both angry and amused. "You! She's about to fight to the death for your place, but you don't take it to heart! Forget it. She thinks she's valued by your father because of her talent in black gunpowder, but actually, she's just a shadow!

"…She'll be nothing if I can find your aunt's child. She can't even be considered a substitute. However, Ji Xiao and the others treat her like a treasure and want to promote her."

This wasn't Ji Nan's first time hearing this story from her. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mom, what do you mean by my aunt?"

Xie Yun's expression suddenly became lost, as if she was reminiscing. In short, it was very complicated. "She… she's a very special person."

Ji Nan listened attentively, thinking that she would continue.

Unexpectedly, Xie Yun suddenly changed the topic. "By the way, regarding Master Carlo, do you think I should agree?"

She rubbed her aching head. She was helpless in this situation. "I don't like her methods, but we've looked for all the famous doctors we can find. Your aunt's condition hasn't improved at all. It's even starting to worsen. If this continues, I'm really worried…"

Xie Yun and Xie Tingyun grew up together and were biological sisters. Their relationship was extraordinary.

Xie Yun secretly disliked Ji Ziyin's backers in the family, but for the sake of her family, she still wanted to give it a try even though she knew that the other party had ill intentions. Even if there was a one in ten thousand chance, what if… Who could say for sure?

What if this Master Carlo was really capable?

She took out her phone to reply to Ji Xiao.

However, Ji Nan's phone rang at this moment.

He looked at the message and immediately revealed a happy expression. Then, he stopped her.

"Mom, stop. My friend agreed to come to take a look at Aunt!"

Xie Yun was stunned. "Your friend? The friend you just called? She's a doctor?"
