The doctor was frightened by his eyes which seemed to know the truth. He quickly found an excuse and left in a hurry.
As soon as the doctor and nurse left the ward, Old Madam Xie, who was lying on the bed, seemed to have recovered. She asked Xie Yun, "Where's Tingyun?"
Xie Yun turned around and glanced at Mother Xie, Father Xie, and Xie Xinyao. Angry, she spoke quickly. "She's not here yet. She's probably on the way."
"She insisted on eating before coming to see me?!" The old lady seemed to be angry again; her face flushed red. "How much trouble does she want to cause over a stranger?! I want to see what trick that person used to charm her that she doesn't even want her own family!"
"Mom, Qiao Nian is not that kind of person." Frustrated, Xie Yun quickly said, "Don't listen to some people's nonsense."
It was apparent who the "some people" were.
Father Xie and Mother Xie looked embarrassed.
