Chapter 595: Rescuing Brother Muli (2)_1
Old Master Xiao listened to Situ Xin’s words and did not reply immediately. Instead, he pondered for a while before lifting his head to look at Situ Xin and said, "Xiao Xin, I’m entrusting Muli to you." Old Master Xiao’s statement signified his complete trust in Situ Xin.
Old Master Xiao had his own thoughts as well. He had watched Situ Xin grow up from childhood and knew her character well. She wouldn’t undertake something unless she was sure of it. Another more important reason why Old Master Xiao agreed to let Situ Xin take action was her affection for Xiao Muli. Without necessarily being love, there was at least familial affection from Situ Xin towards Xiao Muli. On this count alone, Old Master Xiao knew Situ Xin would not let anything happen to Xiao Muli.
"Grandpa Xiao, rest assured, I will definitely return a lively and bouncing Brother Muli to you," Situ Xin said to Old Master Xiao, showing the first smile since she found out about Xiao Muli’s injury and hospitalization. And this smile miraculously soothed the initially anxious heart of Old Master Xiao.
In the moment he saw the smile on Situ Xin’s face, it was as if Old Master Xiao had suddenly found a dependable and trustworthy harbor.
"Alright, Grandpa Xiao is waiting for our Xiao Xin to return a lively and bouncing Muli," Old Master Xiao said with a loud and clear voice, filled with trust in Situ Xin.
"Ah, old commander, this, this, there are regulations in our hospital. Practicing medicine requires credentials. And places like the surgery room, you can’t just enter haphazardly," said a doctor in front of Old Master Xiao, not daring to directly say, how could you treat your grandson’s life so cavalierly?
"Hmph, what’s with all these rules? You can’t save people yourself, yet you refuse to let someone capable of saving a life do their work. You are the ones treating other people’s lives like a game," Old Master Situ glared at the doctor, who was hemming and hawing with all this nonsense. He even dared to doubt his precious granddaughter’s ability—the audacity. What Old Master Situ did not know was that his last sentence, quite coincidentally, had actually spoken aloud what the doctor had been thinking.
"Baby, if you’re confident you can save Muli, then hurry on in. If anything happens, you have your grandpa and me to back you up," Old Master Loo also stood on Situ Xin’s side. In his mind, Situ Xin’s capabilities far outstripped those of the hospital’s doctors. According to Old Master Loo, if his baby Situ Xin wasn’t confident she could save Xiao Muli, they should call her master. Situ Xin’s master would surely be able to save Xiao Muli.
However, the thought of calling for Situ Xin’s master only occurred to Old Master Loo after Situ Xin had stepped forward and volunteered to save Xiao Muli. Since it was inconvenient to discuss this matter in such a public setting, he swallowed his words.
