Inside the Chu residence in Fenghai.
Ye Fan had already barged into the place by then.
He knew his way well, so he went right to the room where his great-grandma treated her patients.
“Great-grandma, hurry. She doesn't have much time and is on her last breath!”
Ye Fan was too worried, so he dragged his greatgrandma over.
“You stupid boy, do I look like some sort of medical deity?
“I saved your life back then because I didn't have a choice. You are chosen by the Chu family, after all.
“This woman is just a stranger, so why should I help her?
“Seriously, you are such a troublesome kid. All you ever do is make things difficult for me. Have you ever considered how tiring this will be for me?
“You know what? I won't spoil you anymore. Medical request denied, young man,” said the elderly woman in distaste. It was obvious she had no intention of saving Tang Yun.
Hearing that undoubtedly got Ye Fan to panic. He couldn't be bothered about being courteous and honest anymore, so he said, “You can't ignore her, Great-grandma. She's your great-granddaughter-in-law, and my children will lose their mother if you let her die.”
“What? She's my great-granddaughter-in-law?” said the elderly lady. At first, she was calm and at ease, but hearing those words made her change her stance quickly. She could no longer remain unmoved.
She had been around for too long and had witnessed too many deaths. Hence, most things couldn't faze her anymore.
In fact, it would not be a stretch to say that at that moment, she only cared about the Chu family's descendants.
That was understandable. They were her flesh and blood, after all, so she was destined to love them forever.
That was why she jumped into action as soon as she heard about how the lady in front of her was Ye Fan's wife. She will bear the next generation of the Chu family!
“Move aside, boy. Don't get in my way.”
The elderly lady hurried over and shooed Ye Fan away so that she could tend to her in-law's wound.
Unfortunately, when she got closer, she realized that the wounded and bleeding woman was none other than Tang Yun.
That revelation was so shocking that Ye Fan's greatgrandma dropped her jaw.
She turned to her great-grandson and stared as though she was looking at the eighth wonder of the world. “Y-You actually managed to get Yun to marry you and become a part of our family?”
The elder of the Chu family was actually bulging her eyes and was in disbelief.
Ye Fan might've been shameless, but even he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed when he heard his great-grandma's words.
He scratched his head a little and awkwardly replied,
“L-Let's talk about this some other time. The important thing now is to save her.”
“Ah, you're right,” replied the elder. Ye Fan's words reminded her of what was urgent, so she turned her attention to the wounded Tang Yun. “Still, you did good, my silly boy, and you made the family proud. Hahaha...”
She didn't know why, but she was especially delighted to learn that her great-grandson had gotten together with Tang Yun. That news made her so happy that she was giggling nonstop.
Ye Fan grinned bitterly at the side.
He didn't expect his great-grandma to react that way.
However, her giggling didn't last long because she later saw Tang Yun's wounds. That turned the giggles into a grim frown.
The elder of the Chu family immediately turned around and smacked Ye Fan on the head. “How did Yun get so badly wounded?
“You little idiot. You're supposed to keep my great-granddaughter-in-law safe!
“Now, quit standing around and go fill the tub with some warm water, then strip Yun down. Put her into the tub right away.
“I'll go prepare the medicinal herb for Yun's bath.
“Go now!”
Ye Fan was stunned in place at the time. That infuriated the elderly so much that she smacked Ye Fan's leg with her walking cane. After that, she left the room in a hurry.
Ye Fan was the only one left in the room, and things became complicated.
At the end of the day, Tang Yun was still a woman, and it was inappropriate for Ye Fan to take off her clothes.
He had not done that to any woman before. Heck, he never even did that for his actual wife, Qiu Mucheng.
Ye Fan suspected that Tang Yun had given birth to his child.
However, everything was still just speculation. That meant that Ye Fan and Tang Yun were just friends... at least until everything was confirmed.
Given the situation, it was only natural that Ye Fan was a little conflicted.
