Chapter Sixteen, The Dean Falls Ill

"Back then, I went up the mountain to ask for medicine, and I heard your cry at the bottom of the hillside. You were just a little old at that time, and you were crying for your baby. I held you in my arms like my own child. Later, I took you to the hospital.

I just learned that you were a premature baby.

I don’t know how long you were kept at the bottom of the hillside. In short, when you were sent to the hospital, your little life was in critical condition. Fortunately, the medical equipment was advanced, and you were placed in a constant temperature room for twenty days, and you finally came back to life." For this reason,

It cost her a lot of savings.

Xuan Minru was lying on the bed, and Xuan Ruoxi held the opened small box in her hand. She listened quietly to the dean's narration about the past. This was the first time she had heard it with her own ears since she was reborn here. She had never heard of it before.

It relies on intermittent recollections of memory.

"At that time, not long after the opening of the Xifu Home, everything was not ideal. I often had health problems. If it weren't for your Uncle Zhou, I wouldn't have been able to get through it so easily. You have been sick since you were a child, but fortunately you

You are very eager to learn, and very smart, and you can learn quickly. You have almost all my talents in life. You are even better than others!

You have had excellent grades since you were a child. As you grow up, you also stand out in appearance. You have white skin, big eyes, tall body, and temperament. However, you are a little timid in character and don't like to talk. You always face strangers.

He has a cold and distant attitude. For this reason, I even hired a psychiatrist." In fact, the dean had told Xuan Ruoxi a few years ago about these things. Why did she bring them up again today? It was because she had last words to say.

Explain. Moreover, recalling the past can make her feel less uncomfortable.

"Dean, if you feel tired, let's talk another day." Xuan Ruoxi couldn't bear to see her weak.

"I'm fine, just let me finish!" She was afraid that if she didn't say it, she wouldn't have a chance to say it.

In the ward, Xuan Minru slowly recounted the past. Outside the ward, Huo Jiyun and his assistant Sensen stood silently.

"Master Huo, should we go in?" It seemed that he had been standing there for a while. Huo Jiyun came to the hospital under the order of the old man. He originally planned to knock on the door and go in, but he paused when he heard Xuan Minru talking about the past to Xuan Ruoxi.

, I don’t think it’s appropriate to go in.

So he turned around and wanted to leave, but when he heard about Xuan Ruoxi's childhood past, he stopped involuntarily. Assistant Sensen felt that Mr. Huo was a bit strange today! He actually listened to other people's "privacy"!

"Go and see the attending doctor." Without any further hesitation, Huo Jiyun walked out of the ward.

"These were all discovered from you back then. I also tried to find your biological parents. Unfortunately, the Internet at that time was not as developed as it is now. Even if you publish it in the newspaper, you may not be able to find it. There is no way, I have to selfishly

You stay with me." At this point, Xuan Ruoxi couldn't help but interrupt her.

"No, dean, don't say that. If it weren't for you, I would have passed away long ago." She was the one to thank. Xuan Ruoxi thanked Xuan Minru on behalf of the original owner.

"Silly boy, I want to thank you and thank God for bringing you to me." Xuan Minru couldn't hold back her tears anymore. Xuan Ruoxi also cried.

"You have grown up now. I leave everything to you. If you want to, go find your parents. I only have one request, that is, for the children of the Xifuyuan!"

"Dean, don't worry, Xifuyuan will always be my home, and the children are my brothers and sisters. As long as I, Xuan Ruoxi, are here, they will be fine. I promise!" Xuan Ruoxi cried and raised his hands and swore.

"Okay, then I'm relieved. Ruoxi, good boy, you want to be happy. I will watch you in heaven and pray and bless you." Tears couldn't stop flowing. Xuan Ruoxi held the dean's hand tightly with firm eyes.

, she will definitely keep her promise.

In the doctor's office, Huo Jiyun was talking to Xuan Minru's attending physician.

"Master Huo, there is no room for maneuver with Dean Xuan's condition. All we can do now is let her leave peacefully."

"You mean - Dean Xuan is beyond treatment?" The attending physician nodded with difficulty.

"The disease is terminal and there is no cure." It is so serious? Doesn't it mean that his life is not long?

"How much time is left?"

"It can take as long as a month or as little as a few days!" There is no point in relying on medication and equipment for support. Huo Jiyun left the doctor's office, his thick brows slightly furrowed and his facial expression slightly tense.

Arriving outside the ward, assistant Sensen stepped forward and knocked on the door, and then they walked in.

Xuan Ruoxi stood up immediately when she saw the person coming and said in surprise: "Master Huo, why are you here?" Dean Xuan, who was lying on the bed, opened her eyes slightly. She had talked too much just now, and she seemed even more weak.

"Yes, Mr. Huo?"

"Hello, Dean Xuan, I am Huo Jiyun."

"Master Huo, thank you."

"There is no need to thank Dean Xuan. This is what I should do. I hope you will recover soon." Huo Jiyun did not stay for too long. He simply said a few words, put down his things, and left.

"Ruoxi, you see Mr. Huo off!" Xuan Ruoxi followed Huo Jiyun and the others to the elevator entrance.

"Thank you Mr. Huo for coming to visit." Huo Jiyun stood in front of Xuan Ruoxi. He was a head taller than Xuan Ruoxi at 1.8 meters tall. He raised his thin lips and looked at Xuan Ruoxi with a deep look in his eyes.

"Miss Xuan doesn't need to see you. We have time to have dinner together. Goodbye!" Before Xuan Ruoxi could say anything, the elevator came. Huo Jiyun walked into the elevator, followed closely by his assistant.

"Goodbye!" Xuan Ruoxi replied belatedly before the elevator door closed.

Let's eat together! It should be just a casual conversation, right? Xuan Ruoxi didn't take it seriously.

But what she didn't expect was that a few days later, she actually received an invitation from Huo Jiyun.

"Hello, Miss Xuan, we meet again. It was better last time, let's have dinner together!" Huo Jiyun's deep and pleasant baritone voice was on the other end of the phone. Xuan Ruoxi was a little confused. For a moment, she didn't know how to react!

"What's wrong? Don't you want to?" Huo Jiyun was a little confused when he didn't get a reply from her for a long time.

"Uh, Mr. Huo, I should be the one to treat you to dinner." Xuan Ruoxi mustered up her courage.

"Oh." Huo Jiyun smiled, Xuan Ruoxi took a deep breath and continued: "Yes, thank you." The person on the other end seemed to be thinking, and after a while, Xuan Ruoxi heard his reply: "

Okay, Miss Xuan, you decide the location!" Xuan Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief quietly, thought about it and said, "Then I will decide the location and send you a message."

"Okay, wait for the good news!" After hanging up the phone, Xuan Ruoxi found that her palms were sweating because of nervousness. Huo Jiyun stared at the phone in his hand without saying a word. The assistant looked at him, confused.

"All the time tonight is free." The sudden sentence made Sensen who was waiting on the side blink: "I know Mr. Huo!" Strange, so strange!
