Chapter 347: Chapter 347 Pretentious (1)_1

Watching Yun Ling leave, Situ Xin finally said to Liu Guobiao, "Uncle Liu, I’m sorry for intervening in your family matters without your permission." Situ Xin spoke these words with a deeper meaning. Just now, she couldn’t stand idly by, which impulsively led her to meddle in their business.

And she had also decided in her heart that if Liu Guobiao found her meddling annoying, she would not intervene in their affairs anymore. It would be enough for her to simply cure Liu Yuxiang’s mother’s illness.

If Liu Guobiao’s attitude was good, however, she wouldn’t mind lending them a hand.

"No problem, no problem, I should be thanking you. If it weren’t for you, that vixen might not have left at all," sighed Liu Guobiao.

"Master, what are you saying? I’m so grateful you’d offer to handle my family’s situation, I can’t thank you enough," Liu Yuxiang also chimed in.

Given the attitudes of Liu Guobiao and Liu Yuxiang, Situ Xin decided to still give them a hand.

In the end, under Situ Xin’s persuasion, Liu Guobiao did not kick Liu Yubin out of the Liu family. Instead, he let him return home with them. It wasn’t that Situ Xin was considering Li Yubin’s feelings—she wasn’t that kind-hearted. Rather, Situ Xin thought that if they really threw Liu Yubin out now, it wouldn’t be the right time until this matter had concluded. If Liu Yuxiang were cast out now, he would end up staying with Yun Ling, which would be exactly what the two of them wanted.

And that’s exactly what Situ Xin told Liu Guobiao. After hearing her words, Liu Guobiao fell silent and later didn’t bring up the matter of expelling Liu Yubin again.

Xia Yujie, after learning that Situ Xin intended to meddle in the affair, conscientiously went to make a phone call, ordering the people under Dragon Society to sift through Yun Ling’s background. They had to investigate everything without missing a single detail, no matter how small.

In fact, even if Situ Xin didn’t take charge of the situation, Liu Yuxiang, after calming down, would have asked Dragon Society’s intelligence organization to investigate Yun Ling as well.

The second day Liu Yuxiang’s mother regained consciousness, Situ Xin began treating her with acupuncture. Before starting the acupuncture, she drove everyone out of the room. Actually, even if Situ Xin hadn’t insisted, everyone but Liu Guobiao, including Liu Yuxiang and Xia Yujie, would have left on their own initiative.

As for Liu Yubin, although Liu Guobiao did not kick him out of the Liu household, he was forbidden to enter his mother’s room. The concern was that if Liu Yuxiang’s mother saw Liu Yubin, it could provoke a strong emotional response detrimental to her health. So, from the time she was discharged from the hospital to now, Liu Yubin had not been able to enter his mother’s room.

After the first session of acupuncture, Liu Yuxiang’s mother was able to speak. The first thing she said to Situ Xin was, "Thank you."

Her voice was soft, matching her ethereal temperament. Listening to her, even Situ Xin’s voice subconsciously softened, "Aunt Liu, there’s no need for formalities. How do you feel now?" Situ Xin asked with a smile as she packed up her needle box.

"I feel much better, I feel stronger now," Liu Yuxiang’s mother said. Although she could speak now, her voice was still weak. She felt tired after just a short conversation.

"Good to hear you’re feeling better. Aunt Liu, come. Drink this medicine," said Situ Xin, pulling out a small porcelain bottle and helping Liu Yuxiang’s mother drink the medicinal liquid inside. Unlike the typically bitter taste of common medicines, this one was refreshingly sweet.

After drinking the liquid from the small porcelain bottle, Liu Yuxiang’s mother immediately felt much less tired and more spirited.

After packing up, Situ Xin said, "Uncle Liu, Ah Xiang and the others are very worried. I’ll go let them in first."

Liu Yuxiang’s mother nodded in agreement. As soon as Situ Xin opened the door, Liu Guobiao rushed to ask, "How is it, how is my wife’s treatment going?" Despite fully trusting Situ Xin’s medical skills by now, he couldn’t help but be anxious about the image of his wife in the ICU, covered in tubes.

"You’ll find out how Aunt Liu is when you go in," Situ Xin replied. No sooner had she finished speaking than Liu Guobiao hurried into the room.

Liu Guobiao went straight to the bedside where his wife lay. Taking her hand, he asked, "Liqing, how do you feel?"

"I’m feeling well," Liu Yuxiang’s mother, Zong Liqing, said with a comforting smile to Liu Guobiao.

The sight of his wife speaking again moved Liu Guobiao to tears. "All is well, all is well. Do you know how scared you made me? Seeing you lying there motionless, holding the critical condition notice from the doctor in my hand, I was thinking about what I’d do if you really left. I don’t think I could go on." Liu Guobiao, the grown man, held his wife’s hand and, like a child, he wept.

Liu Yuxiang also couldn’t help but wipe his tears several times. Situ Xin, watching the scene unfold, was filled with emotion, and while softly stroking Baibai’s fur, she said, "Baibai, I suddenly feel like I did the right thing. I’m also grateful that I stepped in to save Ah Xiang’s mother." Her spontaneous intervention had saved an entire family, giving them all hope for the future.

As Situ Xin was reflecting, she suddenly felt something in her heart "snap"—a feeling of shattering. Then she felt the Spiritual Energy within her body begin to circulate frantically. Situ Xin inwardly cursed, sensing trouble.

Baibai too noticed Situ Xin’s unusual condition. It was momentarily stunned, unsure of what was happening, but it quickly came to its senses and said anxiously, "Master, it looks like you might be advancing. You should get to the space quickly."

Enduring the discomfort inside her, Situ Xin said to Liu Yuxiang and the others, "I’m a bit tired, I’m going to rest in my room for a while."

"Master, are you alright?" Liu Yuxiang asked with concern, noticing the sweat on Situ Xin’s brow due to her forcing herself to endure the discomfort. He mistakenly thought Situ Xin’s condition was due to over-exertion from performing acupuncture on his mother.
