Marrying into a wealthy family, starting from breaking off the engagement

"Oh, it's her. Shufang, have you asked Yanzhi what the Chinese name of Dr. Abby is? I remember she is of Chinese descent." Qiao Xian's face was a little sad, as if he was suspicious.

Grandma Qiao shook her head. "How would I know? Yanzhi didn't tell me this, but the operation was a success, perfect. Even Director Wang from the Department of Cardiology and Neurology said that as long as you take good care of it, you can still jump around for many years!"

Qiao Xian slapped his thigh and said, "That's right, old man, I still want to enjoy happiness with you!"

Grandma Qiao gave him a half-hearted push and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Qiao Xian's eyes were filled with tenderness. "Of course I want to take my Shufang to see the Great Wall. I'll go to Kyoto at the end of this year and take you to see the first snow."

Grandma Qiao's eyes reddened.

As the inheritor of Shu embroidery and the eldest daughter of the Yao family, she took on the burden alone after marrying into the Qiao family and became the inheritor of intangible cultural heritage.

Qiao Xian has been very kind to her over the years. Not only did he help her financially to promote intangible cultural heritage, he even used a lot of connections to promote this technology. She, Yao Shufang, also accepted several apprentices.

Unfortunately, his son died in a car accident.

The grandson Qiao Yanzhi had no choice but to give up his overseas business and hurried back home to inherit the family business, working together with his brother Qiao Chengyu and uncle Qiao Yian to manage the family business.

Yao Shufang has always had a wish, which is to go to Kyoto to see the first snow.

It was just a casual remark at the time, but I didn't expect Qiao Xian to remember it for so many years.

Yao Shufang held Qiao Xian's hand, her voice trembling, "When you get better, I'll definitely go."

"Shufang, I will always be with you." Qiao Xian had just finished speaking when there was a knock on the door.

Mu Xiaodong was carried into the ward by Qiao Yanzhi. He stretched his head out to glance at the old man on the bed, squinted his eyes, chuckled, and called out, "Grandpa, Grandma, I'm Xiaoxia."

When introducing herself, Mu Xiaodong patted Qiao Yanzhi's shoulder and slid down his body. The innocent and cute action made Qiao Xian laugh out loud.

"You are Xiao Xia? You're so cute!" Qiao Xian didn't notice that he was wearing a small suit at all, and even praised him, "This small suit is so handsome! Cool and handsome little girl! Come, come here, let me see."

Mu Xiaodong immediately walked over and stood beside the bed. He exchanged glances with Grandma Qiao and called out in a baby voice, "Hello, Grandma."

Yao Shufang had always liked Xiaoxia. After they met last time, she had been wishing Qiao Yanzhi could bring Qiao Xiaoxia back to the old house every day.

She opened her arms excitedly and hugged Mu Xiaodong.

"Xiao Xia, do you want some fruit?"

Mu Xiaodong shook his head. "The fruit is for Grandpa. Xiaoxia isn't greedy."

Yao Shufang smiled as she cut the fruit and handed it over. "It's okay, he can't finish it all by himself! Yanzhi, you should have some too."

Qiao Yanzhi took the apple slices, gave one to Mu Xiaodong, and ate one himself.

Mu Xiaodong watched everyone start eating before politely saying "thank you" and then began to eat in small bites.

The ward was filled with joy, but suddenly, an unfriendly voice rang out: "You could have just asked the director to perform the surgery, but you insisted on spending 100 million to have an outsider do it. Tsk, Qiao Yanzhi, you're really rich."

Following this voice, Qiao Yian walked in with a cold face. He had been very busy recently. All the affairs inside and outside the company were thrown to him. His two brothers, one was busy with his engagement and the other was busy taking care of the children. No one cared about his life or death at all.

Even yesterday when the old man had surgery, Qiao Yian couldn't spare the time to visit him.

He looked at Qiao Yanzhi with hatred and said in a cold voice, "Yanzhi, it's fine if you don't come to the company very often, but why are you using the company's money?"

This way, it is obvious that they want to bring personal grudges out into the open.

After hearing this accusation, Qiao Xian coughed noticeably and frowned.

Who knew Qiao Yian would escalate the situation and not give any leniency. "Dad, look at your good grandson, actually using the company's money to do something like this! I've found out everything. Your heart bypass surgery is very simple. We can ask Director Wang in the department to do it. There's no need to ask that famous Dr. Abby."

"I also heard that Dr. Abby is a scientific lunatic. She's developing some miracle drug that can rejuvenate people. Aren't birth, aging, sickness, and death natural phenomena? She's actually trying to fight them with drugs! What else could she be but a lunatic?"

"Fortunately, your surgery was successful. If something unexpected happened, who would be responsible? Yanzhi, you're wrong this time!"

In short, all the responsibilities must be placed on Qiao Yanzhi.

Qiao Yanzhi didn't say anything, not even a word of rebuttal.

But Qiao Yian kept nagging, "Dad, look at your good grandson, wasting such a huge sum of money!!"

Mu Xiaodong retorted: "Dr. Abby is not a scientific lunatic, she is a very good doctor! I don't allow you to say that about her! And you are even more forbidden to say that about my father. My father did so much because he wanted to increase the success rate of the surgery!"

A hint of disdain flashed in Qiao Yian's eyes.

Haha, where did this little brat come from? It's really annoying! If the company hadn't suddenly lost a large sum of money, would he have chased him to the hospital?

Finally, Qiao Yian could only frown and say: "Yanzhi, this money..."

Qiao Yanzhi sneered, "Uncle, the 100 million is from my own account, not from the official account. Don't you know that? Or is it that the company's funds suddenly lost 100 million, and they just randomly charged it to me?"

"That's right!" Mu Xiaodong pointed at Qiao Yian and cursed, "The bearded man doesn't tell the truth!"

Qiao Yian looked at the little guy and said with a forced smile: "Little guy, this is a matter between adults, you are just a child, don't get involved."

Qiao Yanzhi chuckled, "Xiao Xia will be the heir to the family business in the future. There's nothing wrong with getting involved in the company's business now."

Qiao Yian was speechless. "You want her to inherit the family business? She's just a girl you picked up from the street! We don't even know what disease she has! She might suddenly fall seriously ill one day, and we'll have to spend a lot of money to treat her!"

Mu Xiaodong snorted coldly, "I'm in good health! Big Beard, you should go see a doctor. You get angry so easily, and you'll be angry to death sooner or later."

"You!" Qiao Yian sneered, "You little motherless bastard."

Mu Xiaodong glared: "I have a mommy! I will definitely find her later!"

Qiao Yian sneered, "They've all abandoned you. What good will it do if you find her? You're still our adopted daughter!"

Qiao Yanzhi grabbed Mu Xiaodong and said coldly, "Uncle, I don't know what your intentions are, but Qiao Xiaoxia is my daughter, a member of our Qiao family, and she has the right of inheritance! Also, I don't allow you to curse like that. You have to look at the owner before beating a dog. How can you talk like that? Didn't you brush your teeth so early in the morning? Why are you talking so much nonsense!"

He didn't care what his uncle thought of him, but he absolutely could not tolerate anyone pointing fingers at Qiao Xiaoxia!

Qiao Yian hid behind him for a moment, "Dad, look at him!"

Qiao Xian said angrily: "Enough!"

"Yian, you don't even know where the company's funds are going? Why are you asking Yanzhi?" Qiao Xian looked at Qiao Yian's face and raised his voice, "I suddenly wondered whether the company should let you be the chairman..."
