Chapter 512: Call Her Aunt Jin
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Shortly after noon, Su Jin and Xi Chenxiao arrived at Xi Xiaoxiao’s ward in time for Director Mou to ask Su Jin to follow them into the operating room for Xi Xiaoxiao’s surgery. When Yu Haiyang saw them, he immediately stood up and said,
“Uncle, Sister Su, you’re here.”
Xi Chenxiao and Su Jin both nodded. Su Jin was a little nervous. After all, she had not performed surgery for a long time, and this time, the patient was Xi Chenxiao’s sister. Grandma Xi heard Yu Haiyang call Su Jin “Sister Su” and frowned. This child lacked manners!
“What Sister Su? That’s your aunt. Call her Aunt Jin!”
Yu Haiyang was a little unhappy when he heard this. He and Su Jin were classmates and of the same age. It was a little hard for him to call her aunt but calling her “Sister Su” was fine. Yu Haiyang said to Grandma Xi,
“Great-grandma, Sister Su and I are classmates. If I call her Aunt Jin, it will make her look very old, no?”
When Grandma Xi heard this, she did not approve. In prominent families like the Xi family, etiquette was very important. Su Jin was Yu Haiyang’s elder, so he must call her aunt. Grandma Xi replied immediately,
“She’s your elder, so you must call her aunt. This has nothing to do with age, understand?”
Yu Haiyang was about to agree when Grandpa Xi interrupted. Grandpa Xi still did not acknowledge Su Jin as his grandson’s wife and felt that she was just an opportunist. Grandpa Xi believed that when Xi Chenxiao grew tired of her, he would divorce her. Grandpa Xi interrupted unhappily,
“What Aunt Jin? I don’t agree!”
Xi Chenxiao’s expression turned cold when he heard Grandpa Xi’s words. He was already the chairman of Xi Corporation, must he still listen to his grandfather when it came to matters of the heart? Xi Chenxiao said coldly,
“It doesn’t matter whether you agree or not. My agreement suffices!”
Grandpa Xi felt extremely awkward when he heard this. How dare his grandson slap his old face? He glared angrily at Xi Chenxiao and raised his walking stick, ready to strike Xi Chenxiao.
......
“Now that you’re all grown up, you dare to speak to grandfather like this?”
Grandma Xi was unhappy when she saw Grandpa Xi about to strike Xi Chenxiao. This eldest grandson was her favorite. Besides, there’s nothing wrong with him getting married or choosing the person he loved. Grandma Xi walked up immediately to stop Grandpa Xi.
“Old man, what are you doing?”
Grandpa Xi didn’t want to strike Xi Chenxiao too, but his words were too hurtful. As the old master of the Xi family, he could not just let it go; he had to save face. Now that someone was stopping him, it could not be better. Grandpa Xi replied quickly,
“What am I doing? Didn’t you hear what this brat said? He’s actually so protective of that piece of trash!”
When Grandma Xi heard this, she quickly watched Xi Chenxiao’s expression. Grandpa Xi’s words were too much. She was afraid that the grandfather and grandson would cause a ruckus in the ward, so she quickly said to Grandpa Xi,
“Old man, Su Jin isn’t some vixen. She’s your granddaughter-in-law, the granddaughter-in-law that your grandson willingly married!”
Grandpa Xi snorted coldly when he heard this. What granddaughter-in-law? He had already arranged his grandson’s marriage long ago. His granddaughter-in-law was supposed to be that girl from the Shangguan family. Who knew that such a girl would suddenly appear out of nowhere? She had ruined his entire plan! Grandpa Xi said coldly,
“I won’t admit it. This girl isn’t my granddaughter-in-law!”
Grandma Xi was stunned. This old man was already so old, yet he was so childish. So what if he didn’t admit it? The young couple had already received their marriage certificate, so Grandma Xi said helplessly,
“Before, you didn’t like this girl because people said that she was a mute good-for-nothing. How about now?”
“She didn’t only know how to speak, she’s also a straight-A student, who is very independent and can earn her own money. What reason do you have now to dislike her?”
When Grandpa Xi heard this, he remembered what happened yesterday and got even more upset. He was going to humiliate Su Jin but he later found out that Su Jin was different from what the others had said. As a result, he had been slapped in the face. He retorted impatiently like a child,
“So what? I just don’t like her. I just don’t want to admit that she’s the granddaughter-in-law of the Xi family. I don’t need a reason!”
