Chapter 359: 259 lifesaver!_2

Dai Aiyuan was choked with anger. It was one thing for the elderly head of the Jiang Family to give vegetables to his fourth brother’s young girlfriend, but Yangyang copying him and doing the same was too much.

She pressed down on Jiang Yunyang’s little hand without making a fuss, "Stop causing trouble."

Jiang Yunyang’s lower lip protruded, and his eyebrows squeezed into a checkmark.

Angry!

Seeing Xia Ye’s bowl already piled high like a little mountain, Jiang Xuan didn’t serve her more.

Jiang Jiujue found this strategy effective and became even more enthusiastic. For the rest of the meal, he really served Xia Ye quite a lot.

All kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas ended up in Xia Ye’s bowl.

Xia Ye accepted everything; she wasn’t one to refuse food.

After dinner, Jiang Xuan drove Xia Ye back to school.

Jiang Jiujue didn’t feel comfortable with them being alone together, so he followed them to the entrance and, sure enough, saw them being ’sweet’ together.

Jiang Jiujue looked at their ’sweet’ behavior, but in reality, it was nothing serious.

It was a cool autumn evening, Xia Ye had put on an overcoat, and Jiang Xuan meticulously zipped it up to her collar then hung her small bag on his arm.

Utterly doting father-style.

Jiang Jiujue, noticing the small bag imbued with rich spiritual energy, pulled Xia Ye aside, "Did Heavenly Dao help you with these spiritual transferences?"

They had come directly from a small pavilion at the Jiang’s and didn’t have time to send Xia Ye’s small bag back to the dorm, so they brought it with them.

Xia Ye: "Yeah."

Jiang Jiujue: "Good for you, such a big part involving a ’significant amount,’ I’ll remember all of it!"

Xia Ye was annoyed; if he kept this up, he’d drain her patience dry eventually.

Her clever mind quickly spun, and she found the best way to shut him up was to drag him into it as well.

She tilted her head, her little expression quite tempting, "There are medicinal pills in here that can prolong life. We’re from the same place after all, should I give you a bottle?"

Her idea was good, unfortunately, it wasn’t easy to trick Jiang Jiujue, the old traditionalist.

Jiang Jiujue held his chin high with integrity, "Dream on, fairy. I will never do anything against discipline and regulations, everything in that bag of yours is evidence, all are enchanted items meant to deceive. Even if I were dying, I wouldn’t take any!"

Xia Ye shrugged, giving up on persuading him further.

She wasn’t worried at all because she had a feeling that soon he would have a chance to try them...

Jiang Xuan packed Xia Ye’s phone and thermo cup, "Let’s go."

Xia Ye casually glanced at Jiang Jiujue and took Jiang Xuan’s big hand.

Her body was warm, and as soon as she touched it, Jiang Xuan felt the warmth in his palm.

He hooked his lips and held Xia Ye’s hand tightly.

This sequence of subtle movements really irritated Jiang Jiujue.

Ignoring the other watching Jiang family members and disregarding Heavenly Dao’s warnings, he strode forward intending to pull their hands apart.

Even if it angered Heavenly Dao, he was determined to help Heavenly Dao clean up his side!

But in his haste, he forgot there was a step down at the entrance and missed his step.

"Ah!"

By the time Xia Ye turned around upon hearing the noise, Jiang Jiujue lay on the ground with his eyes closed, motionless.

As a fairy back in Ear Mountain, he was tough as a pine tree; despite being thousands of years old, he could take on hundreds single-handedly.

But he had forgotten that he was now in a mortal body.

Especially considering the old man’s frail health, cultivated carefully yet still prone to mishaps, let alone having taken a fall like this.

He lost consciousness outright.

Jiang He, Jiang Shan, and Jiang Feng had all been watching in that direction, and the next second, all of them were stunned.

"Heaven’s sake, the old man!"

"Dad! How did he fall?"

"Doctor! Quick, call the doctor!"

The old man, who had just wakened from a nine-year coma, barely had gotten home when he took another fall.

The servants were in a frantic mess, Liu Manyi hurriedly ended a phone call, "Honey, I just found out, the healthcare worker who knows the old man’s condition best just boarded a plane!"

Jiang He was frantically pacing, "What should we do now!"

Given the sudden crisis with the old man, Xia Ye couldn’t possibly return to school now.

But she wasn’t worried at all, instead, she felt a bit...

Wasn’t this an opportunity?

Jiang Shan had the family doctor come over first. The family doctor wasn’t familiar with the old man’s health condition but obviously knew the basic first aid.

Given the old man’s past two incidents of cerebral infarction, he instructed the servants to move the old man safely to bed and lay him flat.

Family Doctor: "The old man’s condition is special. We can’t be sure if the fall caused any brain injury, it’s very dangerous to use medicine randomly now, Mr. Jiang, the priority now is to call an ambulance immediately!"

Jiang He was sweating from his forehead, "I just called, but it’s rush hour now, and they said it will still take a while to arrive."
