Chapter 373
"Mother." Xiao Yan still maintained a polite attitude towards He Qinglan, "It's not convenient to talk here, let's go in first."

He Qinglan was also in a hurry just now, Xiao Yan reminded her, she just remembered that this is still at the entrance of the community, there are security guards and some other residents of the community passing by.

After all, it was the Xiao family's business, and it was really not good to be heard by others, so he nodded and followed Xiao Yan into the community.

When they arrived at the apartment on the sixth floor, Xiao Yan invited He Qinglan to sit in the living room.

Gu Xi went to boil water to make tea and brought over some snacks before sitting down beside Xiao Yan.

"I know that it's not your and Gu Xi's fault that things have come to this point, it's your grandfather who is too stubborn." He Qinglan sighed, "I also know that it is difficult to persuade you to change your attitude, but he is Your grandpa..."

Xiao Yan looked indifferent: "I've made it very clear. I said it in the hospital and in the company before, and now my attitude is the same. If it's broken, it's broken. I don't want to talk to the Xiao family anymore. What does it matter."

"Ah Yan." He Qinglan tried to persuade him, "Your grandfather already knows his mistakes, and he is willing to agree with you now..."

"I'm with Gu Xi, and I don't need his consent." Xiao Yan stretched out his hand to hold Gu Xi's hand tightly in front of He Qinglan, clearly expressing his position, "What kind of means did he use to break us up? But now that he has figured it out, who knows if there will be any troubles in the future."

"I just want to live peacefully with Gu Xi, and I don't want to take any more risks."

"Really... there is no room for redemption?" He Qinglan's tone hinted of despair.

Xiao Yan chuckled lightly: "From the moment I said it was over, I never thought of turning back."

He Qinglan clenched her fists and closed her eyes: "I've actually thought of this kind of result a long time ago. If it wasn't really desperate, I wouldn't want to force you."

"Ah Yan." He Qinglan's voice was hoarse, "Your grandfather is seriously ill this time, and the doctor said that he will need an operation to fully recover. The success rate of the operation is only [-]%..."

There was no major emotional change on Xiao Yan's face, but Gu Xi could clearly feel his hand holding her tightened for a moment.

"Didn't he have a regular physical examination? How could..."

"As he grows older, he will inevitably suffer from various physical problems. He has been taking medicine to maintain it, and the doctor has repeatedly told him not to be emotional." He Qinglan glanced at the two of them, and said with a wry smile, "But recently You know the situation."

"When you took Gu Xi away from the Xiao family, he was really stimulated and fell ill. He has been in a coma since he was sent to the hospital." He Qinglan felt helpless when he mentioned this, "I just woke up today, and the doctor told me Such a result, not to mention your grandfather, is hard for me to accept for a while."

Xiao Yan was silent for a while, and finally asked: "You said he recovered completely, and the success rate of the operation is only [-]%, so if the operation is not successful..."

"It can range from paralysis to serious... I'm afraid it will be difficult to wake up again." He Qinglan's voice was hoarse, "He is old and has cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems. The risk of surgery is too high."

"He knows now that his situation is very dangerous, so he wants to tell you something..."

Xiao Yan's eyes flickered slightly: "He asked you to come?"

"It's what your grandfather meant, and it's also what I mean." He Qinglan laughed at himself, "Now that the matter is discovered, if other members of the Xiao family...even if your grandfather comes in person, you might not be able to meet him, right?"

Xiao Yan didn't respond, it was a tacit consent.

"At this point, he really can't threaten you anymore. I just hope you can meet him...Maybe this will be the last time."

Xiao Yan closed his eyes, unconsciously rubbed the back of Gu Xi's hand with his fingertips, and remained silent.

"Ayan..."

"I know a very good surgeon." Xiao Yan interrupted her, "I'll let him contact you, and then he will discuss with the old man's attending doctor to come up with the best surgical plan, and he will perform the surgery himself , can minimize the risk of surgery.”

He Qinglan's face changed slightly, and Xiao Yan continued to say: "This is the only concession I can make at present, there can be no more."

He Qinglan's face turned even paler: "I'm already very grateful that you can consider your grandfather's health."

"But Ah Yan, you also know that the reason why your grandfather wants to see you again is not his own body, but Xiao Shi's."

"He has been working hard for Xiao Shi all his life, arranging the marriage between your father and me, trying to match you and Kexin, and even trying to break up you and Gu Xi by any means. In the end, he just wants Xiao Shi to have a future. Better development,"

"Before you announced your resignation from Xiao's position as president, Xiao's internal affairs were already in turmoil. Now that your grandfather has fallen again, there is not even one person in Xiao's who can take charge of the overall situation. These years, Xiao has been managed by you. , you also know how serious the consequences will be if the Xiao family collapses."

"The inside is scattered, the stock price has fallen, and the most important thing is that there are still people watching from the outside..."

He Qinglan's words caused Xiao Yan's expression to change for a moment: "Even if the Xiao family doesn't have anyone to take the lead, the internal management structure has already been formed, and it won't be so chaotic that it collapses. Furthermore, within the imperial capital, the Xiao family's The status is unshakable, who is so bold and dares to move Xiao Shi?"

"Your grandfather's serious illness has been kept a secret from the outside world. I didn't dare to leak any news, but some people still know about it. In addition, their group has some strength..."

Before He Qinglan finished speaking, Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes and said two words: "Ji."

He Qinglan nodded: "You took Gu Xi away this time, which is tantamount to completely refuting Sister Murou's face, and she has always loved Kexin. You know her temperament, even if the old man was kind to her before, but there is no Revenge, she will definitely take revenge."

"Now that the Xiao family has no owner, she naturally spread all her anger towards you on the Xiao family..."

Xiao Yan snorted coldly: "I thought Xiao Shi was a piece of fat, so I wanted to chew on it, and I didn't think about how capable I was. If I gnawed hard, I wouldn't be afraid of breaking my teeth."

"She was always arrogant and refused to admit defeat. From her point of view, now is an excellent opportunity to take revenge on the Xiao family and strengthen their Ji family. How could she give up." Those who cared, tried to persuade him while the iron was hot, "A Yan, just listen to my advice, don't be stubborn."

"No matter what happens to your grandfather's surgery, Xiao will still leave it to you."

Xiao Yan was noncommittal to this, and responded calmly: "If I want it, I will get it myself, and I don't need him to leave it for me as a charity."
