From Sidekick to Bigshot

Chapter 497: Basically Meeting the Parents

“No… I’m not shameless…” Jian Yiling retorted in a small voice.

“Well, I guess you’re promising me to not hug anyone else like this then.”

“Mhmm…” Jian Yiling replied as she made a tiny sound in her throat.

As she didn’t raise her head, Jian Yiling did not see the smile on Zhai Yunsheng’s face.

After reaching the bottom of the stairs, Jian Yiling accompanied Zhai Yunsheng to the Zhai Residence.

The Zhai Residence wasn’t the apartment that they were currently living in. Rather, it was the large mansion where Master Zhai lived.

There was a medical room inside this mansion. The medical room had been built for Zhai Yunsheng.

There was a lot of medical equipment inside the room. Other than Jian Yiling, the family also had another private doctor.

However, Zhai Yunsheng had always resisted such an arrangement.

This time, Zhai Yunsheng returned to have his monthly medical checkup.

Zhai Yunsheng did a routine medical checkup once a month.

Typically, normal people only had to do a medical checkup once a year. However, the Zhai family hated the fact that Zhai Yunsheng didn’t do a checkup every week.

A bad heart could affect the entire blood circulatory system. This could lead to problems with the other organs in the body as well.

And thus, regular check-ups were necessary in order to ensure that there were no other problems in Zhai Yunsheng’s body.

As soon as Master Zhai saw Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng entering the house together, he couldn’t hide the smile on his face.

Ahhh… It had been so many years. He had been looking forward to this scene for so many years.

This time, he finally got to see the scene.

Although Zhai Yunsheng wasn’t bringing her back to meet his parents, they were still hanging out together.

That’s basically the same as bringing her home to meet his parents!

So how far was the wedding? And how far away were his great-grandchildren?

While the other doctor was examining Zhai Yunsheng, Zhai Yunsheng casually picked up a stethoscope next to him and passed it to Jian Yiling.

“Listen to my heartbeat.”

Jian Yiling picked up the stethoscope and put it on.

Her small hand held the stethoscope and placed it onto Zhai Yunsheng’s chest.

She listened to the sound of his heart.

One heartbeat by one heartbeat. His heart was beating strong.

His heartbeat was proof that he was still alive.

On the other hand, Zhai Yunsheng was watching Jian Yiling’s hand move over his heart.

He didn’t know how much longer his heart would beat. However, he hoped that every time she listened, she would hear his heartbeat.

Li Zhuojia arrived at Qin Hongrui’s home.

Qin Hongrui was the cousin of the current head of the Qin family. He held an esteemed position in the family.

However, as of now, he had a tumor in his brain. This caused him to experience weakness in his limbs. There was also the possibility of him fainting at any time.

As a result, Qin Hongrui was bedridden for almost a month now.

If the surgery wasn’t conducted soon, the tumor would continue to grow and compress the brain. As a result, it would increase the riskiness of the operation.

There was a great risk to be taken in the surgery. As a result, most ordinary hospitals were unable to ensure the success of the operation.

The Qin family had consulted several hospitals. The hospitals had told them that the success rate of the operation was incredibly low.

As Qin Hongrui did not want to take the risk, he decided to live on with the brain tumor. This was because he could only live his life once.

He was willing to pay any price to save his life. His life was worth much more than money.

After chatting with Qin Hongrui for a while, Li Zhuojia left the room. However, he was stopped by someone just outside of the door.

“Mr. Li, someone wants to talk to you. Is it convenient for you to come with us?”

Li Zhuojia’s face was incredibly calm and collected as he responded: “I’m afraid not. I already have plans.”

Li Zhuojia could guess the identity of the other party along with their intention.

He had known from the moment they started following him.

He could roughly guess what Qin Hongzhi wanted.
