After five years on the run, she returns with two cute babies

Chapter 998: Borrowing

If it wasn't Lilith, then who was it? Could it be... Xuan'er himself?!

The more Join thought about it, the more he felt this was possible. He looked up at Lilith and asked, "Who discovered that Xuan'er had a problem?"

"It was Lao Fang. He rushed in when Grandpa was entertaining Philip and his wife. Philip and his wife happened to have a doctor with them who seemed to know Xuan'er. He treated Xuan'er and discovered the problem."

Staring closely at Join, Lilith asked, "Are you sure you weren't misdiagnosed?"

"Of course!" Join said seriously, "I know how much Xuan'er holds in the master's heart. How could I take the initiative to bring bad luck upon myself? This matter is definitely not as simple as it seems! You just said that the doctor knew Xuan'er. Don't you find it suspicious?"

Lilith naturally knew the cause and effect of this, but she didn't intend to tell Join. She just said ambiguously: "Even if I knew, what would it matter? Grandpa trusts the doctor very much now and plans to keep him to treat his illness."

"What?" Join was shocked and thought that this was terrible. It turned out that he was being used by someone just to make the doctor stay.

But Join was unwilling to accept this. He had been in the Xiao family through so many ups and downs for so many years and had seen all kinds of situations. How could he become someone else's pawn and be sacrificed?

Join slowly calmed down. He looked at Lilith and asked, "Now that things have come to this, what do you think?"

"Of course I want to keep you, but everything still depends on Grandpa's wishes."

When Join saw Lilith, he knew that this woman still wanted him alive. If that was the case, he would definitely take advantage of it.

"I think you should know that if the master doubts me, then you will definitely not have an easy time either."

Lilith certainly understood the relationship between the two, which was why she took the risk. However, her grandfather had begun to doubt Join, and rescuing him was a difficult matter.

Lilith looked straight at Join and said, "I really want to keep you, but you won't put all your hopes on me, right?"

"Don't worry, I only ask you to say a few good words for me in front of the master. As for the rest, I will figure it out myself."

"how do you want to do it?"

Looking at Lilith's eager eyes, Join smiled mysteriously and said, "In the Xiao family, everyone has a back-up plan, and they won't reveal it unless it's absolutely necessary."

Lilith noticed Join's wariness, snorted, and said, "I didn't expect you no longer trust me. Fine, I'll say a few words for you, but the outcome is up to you!"

After saying that, Lilith didn't linger any longer, and Join narrowed his eyes as he watched Lilith's back as she left.

……

Looking carefully at the contract in his hand, Mr. Philip said, "I am very satisfied with this cooperation. I believe that on this land, magic will appear and write a legend for both of our two companies!"

Seeing that Mr. Philip agreed to the contract, Xiao Jincheng signed his name with a smile. While showing his sincerity, he was also silently urging the other party to write his name.

Seeing this, Mr. Philip did not hesitate and wrote his name in a flamboyant manner. Then he looked up and said with a smile: "I hope our cooperation this time will still be a complete success!"

Seeing that both of them had signed the contract, Lilith brought out wine glasses and champagne, saying with a smile, "A happy occasion like this must be accompanied by fine wine! Come, Lilith will pour you two some wine to celebrate our successful cooperation again!"

The crystal glass was filled with champagne. Mr. Philip looked at Xiao Jincheng with a smile and said, "I have always been very confident in my cooperation with Xiao for so many years. This cooperation will be the same. We will definitely make a lot of money."

Nodding to Mr. Phillip, Xiao Jincheng took only a sip before putting the cup down and sighing, "I just don't know how long this kind of cooperation between us can last. My health is getting worse day by day. Maybe next year, Lilith will have to handle these things for me."

Seeing Xiao Jincheng's sad tone, Lilith looked distressed. She held Xiao Jincheng's hand and said, "Grandpa, don't say that. Didn't Doctor Da Zhong say yesterday that he had a way to treat you? You will definitely get better!"

After saying that, Lilith turned around expectantly, looked at Mr. Phillips and said, "Although I know this is very powerless, Lilith still hopes that you can let Dr. Da Zhong stay. Grandpa's health is really poor. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid..."

"Lilith, you're so rude!" Xiao Jincheng warned sternly, "The clock is also very important to Mr. Philip. How can you say such a thing!"

After finishing his words, Xiao Jincheng looked at Mr. Phillip apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, it's Lilith who is ignorant. I hope you don't mind."

Mr. Philip was silent for a moment, then looked up at Xiao Jincheng. Although there was reluctance in his eyes, he still said, "Compared to me, you need Zhong more. Let me ask his opinion later. If he doesn't object, let him stay."

Hearing this, Lilith looked at Mr. Phillip with gratitude and said, "Thank you so much! When Grandpa recovers, I will definitely come to thank you in person!"

"That's not necessary. You don't have to be so polite with me," Mr. Philip said with a smile, "but I hope that after he cures your illness, you will come to me again. After all, I also want to be healthy."

"We understand," Lilith nodded hurriedly, then turned back to look at Xiao Jincheng with a happy smile on her face, and said, "Grandpa, that's great, your illness can be cured!"

But Xiao Jincheng wasn't as happy as Lilith. He frowned slightly, looked at Mr. Phillip apologetically, and said, "In my opinion, you should take Da Zhong back. I have a doctor here who can slowly treat him."

Hearing Xiao Jincheng's refusal, Lilith looked at him in disbelief. Just as she was about to say something, Xiao Jincheng's eyes frightened her. She understood the meaning of this look and could only lower her head, her eyes red.

Seeing Lilith's sad face, Mr. Phillips said, "Xiao, why are you so stubborn? Look, Lilith is sad. Listen to me, just let Da Zhong stay. Only after you recover can we continue our cooperation. It's not easy to find a reliable partner nowadays, so, even for me, you have to keep Da Zhong."

Hearing the other party say this, Xiao Jincheng nodded awkwardly, then said, "Well, it seems that I have no choice but to risk my old face and be shameless for once!"

Just as the few people over there were deciding whether Da Zhong should stay or go, Da Zhong was already sitting beside Xuan'er's bed and started taking his pulse for diagnosis.

Lao Fang stood aside with an anxious look on his face. From time to time he looked at the sleeping Xuan'er, and then at Da Zhong who had a frown on his face.
