Chapter 591 The Power of Words_1
"I..." Situ Xin had just begun to speak when Old Master Xiao’s security guard hurried in, interrupting what she was about to say.
This abrupt appearance of the guard, interrupting Situ Xin’s words, drew frowns from Old Master Situ, Old Master Loo, and Old Master Xiao. However, since the guard wasn’t under the employ of Old Master Situ or Old Master Loo, they felt it inappropriate to comment. As for Situ Xin, she wasn’t angry about the guard barging in and cutting her off. She knew the professional standards of the security staff and understood that they wouldn’t have rushed in without an urgent matter at hand.
If it were any other time, Old Master Xiao might not have said anything. However, the situation was different now, as he wasn’t the only one at the Situ Family home. Therefore, Old Master Xiao sternly scolded the guard, "Xiao Fang, what is the meaning of this? Where are your usual manners, rushing in like this unannounced?"
"Commander, I’m sorry, it wasn’t intentional. It’s just that... I just received a notification from the military hospital that Muli, he... he has been injured and admitted to the hospital," Guard Fang also knew that his behavior was indeed wrong, but the situation was urgent.
"What? What did you say? Muli is injured?" Upon hearing that his grandson was injured, Old Master Xiao stood up abruptly from the sofa, his eyes wide open, unblinking as he stared at Guard Xiao Fang, waiting for his response.
"Yes, I just received a call from the military hospital. They said Muli is there now," Xiao Fang had calmed down, and the anxious expression on his face had faded. He was well aware of how inappropriate his earlier behavior had been.
When Situ Xin heard from Guard Xiao Fang that Xiao Muli was hospitalized, her eyebrows furrowed momentarily but then relaxed. This happened so quickly that none of the three Old Masters, all focused on Xiao Fang, noticed Situ Xin’s unusual reaction.
However, Situ Xin was puzzled, wondering how Xiao Muli could have been injured. Just last night, when Xiao Muli had called her, he seemed fine and flirtatious. How could he now be injured and in the hospital? Situ Xin’s eyes were full of concern.
