Chapter 628
Fu Zhaoxiang asked, "What did Shi Jin say? Did she prescribe any medicine?"
Even though he did not have any expectations for Shi Jin''s medical skills, he could not help asking,
not giving up any hope.
Qiu Xingmi shook her head. The light in Fu Zhaoxiang''s eyes dimmed. However, he wasn''t too
disappointed. He was used to it after all these years.

Fu Xiuyuan and Shi Jin returned to the Fu residence.
Old Master Fu was drinking tea when he saw them. He mmed the teacup on the table. "You two
went to the Southern Courtyard?"
"Yes." Fu Xiuyuan did not avoid it.
"You!" Old Master Fu was furious. "Do you know what you''ll do if something happens? I''m already
so old, what should I do?"
Fu Xiuyuan pursed his thin lips and did not reply.
"Shi Jin, Xiuyuan doesn''t listen to advice and neither do you!" Old Master Fu turned his attention to
Shi Jin. He remembered that Fu Xiuyuan rarely stepped foot into the Southern Courtyard in the
past. When he was young, he would cry and throw tantrums, but it was fine after he grew up.
Fu Xiuyuan decided to go again after Shi Jin arrived. It was clearly Shi Jin''s responsibility.
"Grandfather, it has nothing to do with Shi Jin. I wanted to bring her to meet Dad and Mom." "You!"
Old Master Fu was speechless and heartbroken. "Aren''t you afraid..."
"Grandpa!" Shi Jin walked to Old Master Fu''s side. "Don''t worry. Xiuyuan is only bringing me to
meet his parents. We''re already married. No matter how ugly a wife is, she still has to meet her in-
laws, right? Since I met them this time, I won''t go next time. Don''t worry."
Shi Jin had always been cold and aloof, but as long as she was willing, coaxing the elderly was not
a skill shecked. It all depended on her willingness.
Indeed, the effect of having his granddaughter-inw coax him was different. Old Master Fu''s mood
was finally not as bad.
When Shi Jin saw that his expression had turned better, she continued, "Grandpa, if you want to live
a long life, Xiuyuan and I will continue to apany you. As for the Southern Courtyard, we will not
go there anymore, okay?"
"Hmph, at least you''re sensible." Old Master Fu''s expression rxed. "Butler Kang, let''s eat."
Shi Jin held Fu Xiuyuan''s hand and followed Old Master Fu.
After dinner, Fu Xiuyuan apanied Shi Jin upstairs.
"Aren''t you going to ask me how Mom is doing?" Shi Jin asked Fu Xiuyuan.
"Mm, tell me about it."
"Her condition is indeed not too good. It seems like it will take a long time for her to fully recover."
"Fully recover?" Fu Xiuyuan''s calm eyes could not help but ripple.
He had not heard these two words since he found out about his mother''s illness. He did not even
hear any words rted to hope from any doctor. And yet Shi Jin actually said, "fully recover"!
"Yes, it will take a long time for her to fully recover. However, I have already made some progress in
controlling the infection," Shi Jin said confidently. "Thest time, I came back with her skin samples
for testing. This time, I''ve done some verification and I''m very confident."
"Are you saying that Mother will be able toe out soon and live a normal life?" Fu Xiuyuan
asked, unable to hide the shock in his voice.
As long as Qiu Xingmi''s illness was not contagious, she coulde out to live. She could act
normally and no longer be criticized by others. She did not have to worry about the negative effects
she would bring to others.
In fact, for someone like Qiu Xingmi, as long as she was not worried about infecting others, she
could rely on her wealth and the Fu Family''s power to live freely. However, her sense of
responsibility made her stay away from the crowd, refusing to take a single step out for fear of
affecting others.
Her sense of responsibility had trapped her for more than twenty years.
If there was hope, it was undoubtedly the greatest relief for Qiu Xingmi.
"Yes." Shi Jin looked up andughed. "Quick, praise me!" Fu Xiuyuan reached out and grabbed her
waist, pulling her into his embrace. He kissed her passionately as apliment.

After Shi Jin got more information about Qiu Xingmi, her research went further.
She was sitting in the backyard drying herbs when she received a message from Fang Tang.
"Shi Jin, I heard that Fang Yunxi was hospitalized due to serious injuries. The entire Fang family is
in a bad state now."
"Yes, I didn''t expect things to turn out this way either." Shi Jin typed on the keyboard. "The matter
started because of Fang Yunxi. She brought this upon herself. Before she did anything, why didn''t
she think about who she would offend?"
"Yeah, I think so too."
"Do you have anything to say to me?"
"Not anymore. Just a casual conversation."
"I thought you were going to plead on behalf of the Fang family. If you ask, I might consider it. Fang
Tang, you can tell me after you''ve thought it through."
Shi Jin ced her phone aside.
After a long while, there was another notification on WeChat. Fang Tang sent a message over. "I''ve
already thought it through. There''s no need to plead for them. My dad has looked for my mom
several times, and she asked for my opinion. I feel that everyone should bear the consequences of
their choices. Fang Yunxi should do the same."
"That''s good," Shi Jin replied.
She was not afraid that Fang Tang would be soft-hearted. After all, Fang Tang had the blood of the
Fang family running in her veins. Shi Jin was willing to make an exception for her. However, Shi Jin
was more willing to see Fang Tang bing stronger.
The sun was setting in the west, and the chill in the air was beginning to rece the sunshine.
Fu Jiang walked over to help Shi Jin collect the herbs.
"Put these over there. Put these away. You don''t have to sun-dry them tomorrow." Shi Jin didn''t
make a move and just instructed.
"Alright." Fu Jiang swiftly put away the money and said, "Young Madam, I have something that I
need your help with."
"Hm?" Shi Jin looked up at him calmly.
Faced with such a beautiful face, Fu Jiang was at a loss for what to do. However, he calmed down
after remembering that she was the Young Madam. "The herbs that you gave me previously healed
my old injuries immediately. The doctor at home pestered me to ask about the situation. Young
Madam, you know that the Fu family has so many bodyguards working for Old Master and Young
Master. It''s inevitable that they would have some injuries and illnesses. The doctor said that he
wanted to know where these herbs were made and how they were made..."
He sounded a little guilty. This unique technique was definitely Shi Jin''s secret. He shouldn''t be
asking Shi Jin to reveal it. However, that Dr. Zhu kept asking him about it ten times a day and even
told him to seek Shi Jin''s
help. He had no choice, but to ask this question.
"Oh, well, everyone''s injuries are different. The form will therefore definitely be different."

Upon hearing Shi Jin''s words, Fu Jiang understood. She was rejecting him politely.
