Xie Jinghong rubbed his temples. He was really given a headache by all the noise today.

"I have to go out for something. Here's your card. Use it however you want, but don't do anything bad."

Xie Jinghong spoke softly, looking at the little civet cat seriously.

The little cat smiled cunningly, took the card, put it to the tip of its nose and sniffed it, then squinted its eyes in satisfaction.

"The smell of money is so sweet."

Xie Jinghong didn't want to pay attention to him, so he stood up and prepared to leave.

"Don't go, I haven't seen you for so long, why don't you have a meal with me?"

The little cat was quick to grab her hand and shook it coquettishly.

"Tsk!"

Xie Jinghong let out a light click, and the little cat immediately let go.

"You're already grown up, and you still can't learn to eat by yourself? I have important things to do."

Xie Jinghong scratched his chin like a cat.

"If you're not hungry, wait until I'm done and come back to look after the store."

"Oh."

The cat's fur was smoothed in an instant, and the little cat nodded obediently.

Xie Jinghong went out, hailed a car, and went to North City Central Hospital.

Old Master Huo's arm was removed by her, and he must be in the orthopedics department of the Central Hospital now. She could hack into the Black Gold Hospital's system with just a flick of her finger, but she didn't want to do that.

When she arrived at the hospital's inpatient department, she lowered the brim of her hat and asked the nurse at the front desk.

"Excuse me, which ward is Mr. Shen staying in?"

The nurse tilted her head to look at her and asked another question out of a sense of responsibility towards the patient.

"May I ask who you are to him?"

"Granddaughter." She blurted out and made up an identity.

The nurses are also at the forefront of the gossip. Today they saw on the Internet that the daughter of the Xie family is actually from the Shen family. They didn't expect to see her alive.

Without thinking too much, he told Xie Jinghong Mr. Shen's room number.

Xie Jinghong thanked him, lowered his head, got into the elevator and went upstairs.

Compared to the Xie family who quickly quelled the civil strife, the Shen family was in a complete mess at this time. Old Master Shen was hospitalized, and there was only one servant taking care of him in the ward.

While Xie Jinghong waited for the servant to go out to fetch water, he pushed open the half-open door of the VIP ward and went straight in.

Mr. Shen looked ten years older, lying on the hospital bed with a look of despair on his face.

He was already dozing off, but he seemed to sense strange gazes around him and suddenly opened his eyes.

When he saw clearly that the person standing in front of the window was Xie Jinghong, his cloudy eyes widened.

"You, what do you want to do?"

His voice was full of fear. Ye Yun was right. This child was very evil. Anyone who got involved with her would be in trouble.

He is very unlucky today.

"I came to visit you. Your injury isn't serious. Why do you need to be hospitalized? Doesn't your family want you anymore?"

Xie Jinghong bent down slightly, looked at him and asked with a bright smile.

"get out!"

Old Master Shen was very afraid of Xie Jinghong, so he didn't dare to say anything harsh and could only shout weakly.

"I'll leave in a minute. I have something to tell you."

She casually pulled over a chair and sat down in front of his bed. She raised her hand and pinched the IV tube. "Glucose? Are you hypoglycemic?"

Old Master Shen had no idea what the little girl was doing. If he wasn't lying here because of her, he would have really mistakenly thought that she was here to visit his elders and cheer him up.

"What on earth do you want to do? Isn't it enough that you've messed up the Shen family into what it is today?"

The calmer Xie Jinghong appeared, the more panicked Mr. Shen became.

"Stir?"

Xie Jinghong frowned slightly, obviously not liking the wording.

"I helped you find your long-lost daughter and sent you the granddaughter that the Xie family raised for you. Why don't you thank me and accuse me of meddling?"

The voice was deep and unhappy.

Old Master Huo glanced at her sideways, beads of sweat already appearing on his forehead.

"The matter between our two families has become known to everyone in North City today. You've beaten me and scolded me, what else do you want?"

Mr. Shen didn't think she came to ask for a "thank you" from him.

Xie Jinghong shook his head, "Not very good."

She casually grabbed a banana from the table, peeled it a little, and asked Mr. Shen, "Do you want to eat it?"

Old Master Shen was in no mood to eat a banana. Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xie Jinghong took the banana and started eating it himself.

"Forget it, I have good news for you."

"what news?"

Mr. Shen intuitively felt that this news was related to Ye Yun, and he was so nervous that he unconsciously held his breath.

"I sent your old lover to the Taoist temple. Go and walk the path I walked and live the life I lived."

She smiled sweetly.

"If you want to meet her in the future, you can go to the Taoist temple. Although it's a bit immoral, it's not a big deal for you two."

Mr. Shen was very shocked when he heard that Ye Yun was sent to the Taoist temple.

After hearing what she said next, I felt even more embarrassed and annoyed.

"How can you be so cruel at such a young age?" He struggled to get up.

Xie Jinghong pressed a finger on his shoulder and pushed him back with a little force.

"Don't worry, you'll have plenty of time later."

She smiled lightly, threw the banana into the trash can, and took out a disposable blood-sucking tube from her pocket.

Old Master Shen had almost no power to resist. He was pressed on the bed by her and watched her pierce his skin with a needle.

"What are you going to do? What are you going to do? Let me go..."

Mr. Shen’s legs are not in good condition and his arms have just been reattached. At his age, he has not much strength left after all this hard work and he is too weak to shout.

Xie Jinghong softened his voice and soothed, "Don't shout, aren't you ashamed to call someone over here?"

"It will be fine soon, don't be afraid."

He said don't be afraid, but he showed no mercy and drew a full tube of blood.

"You want to kill me?"

Old Master Shen lived his whole life. Although he was scheming and did all kinds of bad things, he never thought that one day there would be someone who would not only dare to beat him in broad daylight, but also break into the ward to draw blood.

Xie Jinghong shook his head innocently.

"Killing is against the law. I don't want to die, so why should I kill you?"

Old Master Shen was frightened by her series of actions and broke out in a cold sweat on his back, and was also confused by her words.

"What on earth do you want to do? Oh my God, why did I switch the baby in the first place? I'm ruining Ye Yun and the Shen family!"

Xie Jinghong glanced at him sideways and was speechless at his grief-stricken questioning of the heavens.

Even so, after she pulled out the needle, she considerately used a cotton swab to press the needle hole for him.

"Why are you yelling? It's just a tube of blood. You won't die."

Xie Jinghong was very annoyed. He took the sealed bag and put the things away. He looked at Mr. Shen lying on the hospital bed and smiled sweetly and lovely.

"Wait for my good news, old man."

Mr. Shen:...

What on earth is she doing? What on earth does she want?

Without waiting for Mr. Shen to ask again, Xie Jinghong had already straightened his clothes and walked out of the ward in a dashing manner.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw the servant coming back with hot water.

"Go check it out, your old man is on the bed."

The moment his eyes met the servant's, Xie Jinghong made up something, walked around her and left quickly.

The servant was left standing at the door of the ward in a daze for three seconds.

The girl just now was Xie Jinghong, the one who beat up her grandfather?!

Her old man pooped on the bed?!

The servant's hand trembled and the hot water almost scalded him. He didn't even think about chasing the person. He hurried into the ward to help his old man change the bed sheets.

Xie Jinghong hummed a little tune as he passed by the front desk and greeted the nurse cheerfully, "Thank you, bye."

The nurse now saw her appearance clearly. Her clean and beautiful face seemed different from the girl that the Shen family had recognized on the Internet.

She rubbed her eyes and quickly turned on her phone to confirm with the nurse beside her.

"No, am I seeing things? Which one is Mr. Shen's granddaughter? Wasn't it the original daughter of the Xie family? How come it became her again?"

"I remember that too. Let's take a look at the photos online."

The two of them almost had their logic turned upside down, thinking they had lost their minds and couldn't even understand what was going on.

It wasn't until they reread the trending news three times that they confirmed:

The person who just walked over was the real daughter of the Xie family who beat Mr. Shen into the hospital, not Mr. Shen’s granddaughter.

When I looked up again, there was no trace of Xie Jinghong.

At this time, Xie Jinghong had already gotten into the car. He leisurely made a phone call and sweetly called to the person on the other end of the line, "Sister Xinghe."

A calm and cold female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"You little bastard, you only contacted me after you've turned North City upside down?"

Hearing the voice from the other side, Xie Jinghong smiled even sweeter.

"Sis, when did you start paying attention to all that gossip online? Don't just listen to what they write. I'll come find you later and I'll tell you about it in person... No, I mean, I want to explain it to you in person."

Xia Xinghe on the other side smiled helplessly, "You little brat, you must have something to ask me. Come on, I welcome you."

The two joked around on the phone for a bit before hanging up.

Xie Jinghong met Xia Xinghe when they were in the junior class. When she still lacked the love of her parents, brothers and sisters, it was Xia Xinghe, who was three years older than her, who was the second to give her the warmth of family.

The first one is the little old lady in the Taoist temple on Mount Jiuhua. She is serious, mysterious and beautiful.

After she picked up Xie Jinghong, she raised her until she was ten years old.

There were often people visiting her at the Taoist temple. Each of them was extremely talented, some were medical tycoons, others were financial tycoons...

Some of them, Xie Jinghong still doesn't know their true identities.

It was also thanks to the old woman's connections that Xie Jinghong, who used to play with wild beasts in the mountains like a free and easy cloud and crane, was captured and taught various skills.

Until she was ten years old, she went to the elders for advice, but they all waved their hands and refused, saying that they could not teach her.

Xie Jinghong was secretly worried about this for a while until one of them recommended her to the junior class of a first-class institution.

It is home to the most talented children in the country.

Xie Jinghong, who grew up in the mountains, felt like a fish in water once she entered the place. Everyone was quite weird anyway, and she didn't feel out of place at all.

Later, she felt that the classes in the lower grades were boring, so she went to the higher grades to attend classes, and that's how she met Xia Xinghe.

Those years were a very bizarre and exciting experience for Xie Jinghong.

While I was reminiscing, the car had already arrived outside the institute.

Xia Xinghe, wearing a white coat and a simple low ponytail, but still beautiful and charming, was waiting for her at the door.
