Ji Ya was too embarrassed to say too much, so she quickly hung up the phone.
"I have an appointment with him tomorrow morning. He will come to the hospital to take a look at Grandpa," said Ji Ya to her mother and uncle as she put away her phone.
Song Qi was even more shocked than when she heard her daughter say that she knew someone from the Apothecaries' Association. "… He wants to take a look himself?"
They were already very lucky to be able to contact him, and now he wanted to take a look himself?
Song Qi was a little dumbfounded. Everything that had happened today felt very surreal.
"Mhm. He has an appointment with me at 10. Mom, you and Uncle can come together then." Ji Ya thought about it and added. "But don't tell anyone else in the family. I'm afraid that my tutor's friend won't be happy if there are too many people."
Song Qi got the hint and liked his niece even more. He nodded and smiled. "Okay. Don't worry. I won't even tell your aunt for now."
Who didn't want to know a Apothecary?
Xiao Ya was trying to pull some strings for him.
Ji Ya smiled and didn't say anything else. She turned around and glanced at her grandfather, who was lying on the sickbed. She didn't know when he would wake up, so she paused and said, "Mom, Uncle, I'll be leaving first. I have an appointment with my classmates to discuss some academic issues."
"Okay, okay. Go ahead, Xiao Ya." Song Qi's expression grew warmer.
"Mhm." Ji Ya nodded politely. She picked up the book beside her and headed out.
Song Qi followed behind her. "I'll walk you out."
Soon, the two of them walked out of the ward. When they reached the elevator, Ji Ya asked her mother to stop and pressed the button to go down. She turned her head slightly and looked at Song Qi. "Mom, why did you say in front of Uncle that Grandpa and I were matched?"
Song Qi knew that her daughter would ask. She coughed and looked down, too embarrassed to look at her. "I just don't want you to suffer."
"Mom, Grandpa is family. You shouldn't say that," said Ji Ya helplessly. She felt conflicted when it came to her mother.
Wasn't it good to be a simple family?
They had to rely on scheming. Didn't she know that this kind of scheming would result in everyone deserting her?
"You're still young and haven't experienced much. You won't understand." Song Qi just shook her head. She did not want to have a conflict with her daughter over such an issue. She only said, "Don't ask so much. Just focus on developing your career."
Before the elevator arrived, Song Qi quickly changed the topic. "My good daughter, you're really my pride. You even know someone from the Apothecaries' Association. You have to thank your teacher later. We have to return this favor."
Ji Ya looked at Song Qi and paused for a second before she said, "You don't have to complicate things. My teacher isn't the kind of person who would repay kindness, so don't show too much of yourself in front of my teacher's friends tomorrow and cause them to resent you."
Song Qi nodded perfunctorily. "I know. Don't worry."
At this moment, the elevator dinged, and Ji Ya did not say anything else.
When the door opened, Xiao Zhu happened to be in the elevator. When he saw Ji Ya and Song Qi standing outside the elevator, he was stunned for a moment. When he came back to his senses, he quickly walked out.
"Miss Little Ya, Second Miss." Little Zhu hurriedly nodded and greeted respectfully.
Ji Ya nodded at him and then entered the elevator.
When the elevator went down, Song Qi walked to the ward and asked Xiao Zhu, who was following beside her, "So, what's the situation now?"
