"Huahua, you're amazing!"
As soon as the old man's figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs, Fu Youqing rushed over and hugged her younger sister tightly.
"So many doctors couldn't cure Xiaokai's leg, but I didn't expect you to just do a little something and he can even walk now."
As she spoke, she rubbed her sister's face, looking proud and happy.
Xia Sanghuan could only smile along with her.
She didn't dare to say that it was because of her that Fu Kai hadn't recovered.
When her third elder sister let go of her, she walked up to Fu Lingshi and said apologetically,
"Sorry, big brother. Just now..."
"It's okay,"
the big brother said indifferently.
"I trust you."
"Moreover, even if the shares are really taken away, I'm confident that I can feed myself."
He added with a half - joking tone and then got a tap from Fu Moning.
...
"Brother Chuanjin, since it's a rare break, don't always be working."
Along with a deliberately delicate voice, a pair of boneless hands reached out and took away the documents from Leng Chuanjin's hands.
He frowned and looked at the woman in front of him, not hiding his disgust at all.
But Xia Anying acted as if she didn't see it and kept sticking herself to the man.
"Don't touch me."
He grabbed her wrist and stopped her hand from getting any closer.
"I'm saying this for the last time. Don't touch me."
His voice turned even colder and his face darkened.
In just these few days, Xia Anying had stuck herself to him countless times.
And every time it was when Leng Wanqing was not around.
Even a fool could tell that she was doing it on purpose.
"Brother Chuanjin, why are you so mean to me?"
She pulled her hand back and gave him a resentful look.
Xia Sanghuan had returned to the Fu family, leaving her alone here.
The opportunity was right in front of her. How could she not seize it?
"Uncle Wang."
The man called out to the door.
The butler came in promptly.
"Eldest Young Master, what are your orders?"
"Please show Miss Xia out."
After seeing who was in the room, the butler also frowned.
"Miss Xia, please come with me."
He said politely to her, but his tone was far from friendly.
"If you don't come with me, I'll have to call the security guards like last time."
Seeing that Xia Anying remained unmoved, he had no choice but to continue threatening her.
Seeing that she finally agreed to leave, Leng Chuanjin sighed with a headache.
He had always thought that Xia Anying was just of poor character. Keeping her in the Leng family would only cause a bit of a ruckus on a daily basis and wouldn't cause any real trouble.
But unexpectedly, she had been doing such things to him repeatedly.
His eyes darkened.
But he had already promised Xia Sanghuan, so he couldn't just change his mind and send her back to the Fu family.
Moreover...
He couldn't even find a proper reason to send her back.
Over the years, he had seen many women who would do anything to become the young mistress of the Leng family.
But none of them had ever had the chance to get so close to him.
He could only ask Wanqing to keep an eye on her.
As he typed on the computer, he silently made plans in his mind.
...
"Sanghuan, did the principal inform you?"
When Xia Sanghuan was in her bedroom flipping through ancient books, Professor He suddenly called her.
"What notification?"
She asked blankly.
"The notification from the journal *Science and Technology* about the publication!
I've sent you the list. Check it out for yourself."
After saying that, Professor He hung up the phone.
It wasn't Xia Sanghuan's fault that she didn't know. This year, the publication time of *Science and Technology* had changed.
For some reason, the deadline for the journal had suddenly been postponed without any notice, and the publication date had also been put on hold.
But this was actually a good thing for her. After all, so many things had happened during that period that her progress on the thesis had come to a halt.
The postponed deadline had given her time to polish her thesis.
She quickly opened the social app, and the first thing she saw was the list the professor had sent her.
There weren't many selected theses, but since there was an introduction to each thesis after its title, the list had become quite long.
Her fingers trembled slightly as she carefully scrolled through the list.
She felt as if her heart was in her throat.
The list was arranged according to the first letter of the thesis title, so she had to scroll almost to the end before she saw her thesis.
The moment she saw the familiar title and her own name, she almost cried out of excitement.
She quickly composed herself and didn't let out a scream.
For some reason, the first person she wanted to share this good news with was Leng Chuanjin.
She hesitated for a moment and then called him.
The man was about to have dinner. After receiving the girl's call, he immediately picked up his phone and walked to a quiet place.
"Hello."
The girl's slightly trembling voice came from the phone.
"What's wrong?"
He asked anxiously, thinking that she was crying.
"Second brother, I want to tell you that my thesis has been selected."
Her voice was filled with unbridled joy.
"That means I can still work with Professor He to treat Jingzhan in the future."
She said with a big smile.
To her, what was important wasn't the selection itself, but the opportunity to continue researching the medicine.
In this way, she would also have a reason to stay by her second brother's side.
Listening to the girl's voice, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
The unpleasantness caused by Xia Anying also vanished into thin air.
"Then I'll give you a gift."
"As a reward for getting selected."
He said into the phone.
"What reward?"
"You'll know when the time comes."
Just then, there came a murmur of voices from the girl's side.
Then she said into the phone,
"Second brother, my elder brother is calling me for dinner. Let's talk later when I'm free."
"Okay, bye."
As soon as his voice fell, there came the beeping sound from the phone.
The man looked up at the night sky. He already had an idea of what gift to give the girl.
Xia Sanghuan ate her dinner silently at the dinner table. After sharing the joy with her second brother, she had already calmed down.
Moreover, with her grandparents and Fu Kai present, she didn't want them to know too much about her business.
After these days of treatment, her grandparents' physical conditions were obviously much better than before, and Fu Kai could even walk a little.
So the family atmosphere now was far better than when she had just returned home.
At least the two elders would occasionally pick up some food for her.
"Grandpa, can you take back what you said before?"
After dinner, she suddenly asked.
"What did I say?"
"About asking the fourth brother to take over the company from the big brother after the New Year."
The old man was stunned for a moment, then coughed dryly and said awkwardly,
"Um."
"Xiaokai should start with small things first."
