BXBX NOVEL Chapter 286 - 287: Scram!
Gu Junzhu looked over in the direction of the voice.
At some point, Senior Master Xiang had returned to normal, sitting weakly and tiredly next to the boulder.
Gu Junzhu smiled at him, leisurely carrying Xiao Shumiao over, and calmly said, “Uncle Xiang, you owe my son a lot today!”
“The medicine you used was prepared by my wife for my son; if it hadn’t been for my son’s medicine, perhaps you would be remembered in the history books today!”
“But my wife and son didn’t have your luck. Just to save your life, my wife and son were hounded by your son and granddaughter. Look, my son’s eyes are swollen from crying!”
Senior Master Xiang held back a smile. His old face revealed a sense of unspeakable sorrow.
He spoke to Dr. Lo, who was looking after him, “Lo, help me stand.”
Dr. Lo hesitated: “Eldest Xiang, you need to rest right now.”
Senior Master Xiang frowned and repeated, “Help me stand!”
His voice wasn’t loud, but it was filled with an unyielding authority.
Dr. Lo had no choice but to assist him with his apprentice, helping him to stand up from the ground.
Xiang Jiechao and Shao Bingyi hurried over to help, but he pushed them away, “Get out of the way!”
Xiang Jiechao was so scared that he shuddered, involuntarily glancing at Lingyue, his face filled with shock.
Publicly berated by Senior Master Xiang, Shao Bingyi felt both shame and embarrassment, her eyes reddening in humiliation.
With the help of Dr Lo and Xu Xu, Senior Master Xiang shakily stood up and staggered forward a few steps.
He glanced at Ye Xingbei and then at the two children, and suddenly bowed deeply to them, “I’m sorry!”
“Dad!”
“Grandpa!”
“Senior Xiang!”
Shocked cries rang out one after the other.
At Senior Xiang’s status, there was no one in the world who could make him bow his waist.
Yet, at this moment, he was bowing deeply to a twenty-one-year-old girl and two young children.
Ye Xingbei was taken aback, she hurriedly went to help: “Please get up, we can’t accept this!”
Although she did not know who Senior Xiang was, after hearing their conversation, she guessed who this old man was.
This was Xiang Mingcheng, a true meritorious elder, a man of great achievement for the country!
People like this, Ye Xingbei has always respected and admired.
To have such an elderly man bowed to her as an apology, wouldn’t that be shortening her life?
Seeing Senior Xiang like this, Gu Junzhu’s eyes dimmed, let out a silent sigh, turned around with Xiao Shumiao in his arm and put him into Xie Yunlin’s embrace. He also stepped forward and forcibly helped Senior Xiang stand, “Uncle Xiang, what are you doing? If my dad finds out, wouldn’t he skin me alive? Aren’t you harming me?”
Supported by the others, Senior Master Xiang sat down again on the boulder, giving a bitter smile, “How could your dad bear to skin you? If I had a son like you, even if I died now, I could do it with a smile.”
Xiang Jiechao reflexively called out, “Dad…”
“Quiet!” Senior Master Xiang, looking tired, closed his eyes, lifted his hand and pointed to the distance: “Go! Go back home right now, don’t come out without my orders!”
Xiang Jiechao instantly became pale and trembled, “Dad…”
“Go!” Senior Master Xiang roared, “Don’t make me say it a third time!”
He was so angry that his chest was heaving sharply, breathing heavily.
Dr. Lo quickly called Xu Xu to help him and have him lean against the boulder, saying to the still dazed Xiang Jiechao: “Young Master Xiang, you should go back. Let Senior Xiang cool down, his current state should not be agitated.”
