Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering

The nurse pushed Cen Xi back to her ward.

In the ward, seeing that Cen Xi still looked terribly nervous, the nurse patted her hand softly.

“Was the man standing outside of the surgery room earlier your boyfriend? He seemed really worried for you. I heard from my colleague that he had his hands clasped together the entire time, praying for the Gods to bless you.”

Cen Xi blinked.

“Are you talking to me?”

The nurse nodded. “Yes.”

Cen Xi’s hands resting by her side tightened. “I don’t have a boyfriend.”

“Oh, he isn’t your boyfriend?”

“What does he look like?”

“He was tall and slender. He had a rich young master aura and looked like someone who had walked out of a comic.”

Cen Xi’s heart tightened.

With that description… Was the nurse talking about Qiao Yanze? He was standing outside the surgery room?

No, it was impossible!

Although she thought this way, Cen Xi still lifted the blanket hurriedly and got out of the bed.

“Oh, Miss Cen, your surgery was just over. We still need to disinfect your wound. Where are yー”

Before the nurse could finish speaking, Cen Xi already disappeared from the ward.

She ran to the surgery room door but didn’t see any familiar figure. She ran down and searched for the man around the hospital, but still didn’t find him.

Standing at the hospital entrance, Cen Xi’s legs went weak as she fell on the floor. All of her strength seemed to have been taken away suddenly by a huge syringe.

What was she thinking? How could she even let herself hope or anticipate anything?

He had already clarified things.

Why would he come to Switzerland in secret?

Looking up, she forced all of her tears back before she got up and went back to her ward.

Da Zuo, who was sitting in the car, saw everything. He then glanced at the man sitting at the back seat, smoking quietly, through the rear mirror.

He really couldn’t understand. It was clear that Miss Can had come out to look for Young Master. If Young Master opened the door and got out of the car, Miss Cen would definitely leap into his arms, touched and moved.

However, he missed this chance just like that.

Even sitting by and watching was so frustrating!

…

After Cen Xi’s surgery went well, Qiao Yanze returned to the Capital.

Because he had done well in apprehending Young Master Li, Mu Sihan endowed him a manor, gave him the title of First Honor Duke as well as some gold and jewels.

On the day of the knighting ceremony, it started to rain.

All of the important members of the Royal family, as well as the top nobilities all arrived.

Mu Sihan and Nan Zhi were sitting in the King’s and Queen’s seat. Both of them were dressed extravagantly, with Mu Sihan wearing a stern and powerful military uniform and the badge of the highest leader in the country. On the other hand, Nan Zhi was wearing a palatial gown. With her higher status and her unending learning and effort, Nan Zhi looked even more elegant and honorable. Every action of hers was befitting of a nation’s Queen.

The knighting ceremony started.

Mu Sihan started to speak first. He described the contributions the Qiao family had made in the past century to the Royal family, as well as the big achievement Qiao Yanze had made.

Once Mu Sihan was done, he got up, ready to help Qiao Yanze wear his Duke badge.

Right at this moment, an old voice rang.

“Wait a moment.”

Normal people weren’t able to enter the Royal knighting room, unless they were people of certain status. The person who walked in had completely gray hair. Her skin was wrinkled as she held onto a walking stick.

Apart from her, a man who looked like Qiao Yanze followed behind as well.

Seeing the person who came in, Qiao Yanze hurriedly approached her. “Grandma, Brother.”

The two who came in were Qiao Yanze’s paternal grandma and biological older brother.

Back then, after Mrs Qiao had her first child, she had her second a few years later. She didn’t know that Qiao Yanrong wasn’t her biological child still. Qiao Yanze’s second uncle had been married for many years but hadn’t been able to conceive a child. After some checkups, they found out that it was his uncle’s problem. Because of that, Old Mrs Qiao got his uncle to adopt Mrs Qiao’s second son.

Old Mrs Qiao had been residing overseas with her second son all the while. Her second son was an oil tycoon and was rather wealthy. Their wealth was enough to buy a small nation.

Because he grew up overseas, his second uncle and brother had never been close to the Qiao family in the country.

A few years ago, when the Qiao family was devastated, his uncle merely sent his second brother, Qiao Yanxuan, to come back to the Qiao family.

The last time Qiao Yanze saw Old Mrs Qiao, it was during his wedding with the fake Xiao Ying. When Mrs Qiao was still alive, she doted on Qiao Yanze the most and gave almost all of her love to him.

This made Old Mrs Qiao really unhappy. Although Yanxuan had been adopted by his second uncle, he was still Mrs Qiao’s biological son, but she rarely gave concern or love to him.

Because of this, the person Old Mrs Qiao doted on the most was Qiao Yanxuan, who had grown up by her side.

When it came to Qiao Yanze, Old Mrs Qiao had been rather indifferent at first. However, when Qiao Yanze devastated the family because he fell in love with a woman, she started to despise him.

Right now, in the mind of the Old Madam, Qiao Yanze was no different to those useless young masters.

Old Mrs Qiao walked in front of Mu Sihan and Nan Zhi with the support of her walking stick. Although they were younger, the Old Madam still had to be courteous towards them because they were the King and the Queen.

Mu Sihan got someone to bring a chair for the Old Madam. The Old Madam sat down and her wrinkled hand slowly took out a letter from her pocket shakily.

“Your Majesty, I heard that Yanze is being knighted today. I came to beg Your Majesty to take back your decision and knight Qiao Yanxuan as the Duke instead, to let him be in-charge of the Qiao family.”

Mu Sihan remained unmoved as everyone else in the room turned towards the Old Madam. Nan Zhi’s expression darkened as her hold on the chair handle tightened.

To her, she only recognized her uncle. Back when the Qiao family was devastated, this Second Uncle that was overseas clearly had the ability to help, but never came back to help the Qiao family.

How could he come at this point and snatch the Duke title? What right did he have to the title?

Nan Zhi glanced at Qiao Yanze. Qiao Yanze’s lips were pursed tightly as he remained quiet. Nan Zhi furrowed her eyebrows, not understanding why Uncle wasn’t speaking up for himself.

“Old Mrs Qiao, Qiao Third Young Master has always been the Qiao family’s Duke heir. The knighting right he has from his achievements is also what he deserved originally. What is your basis for asking us to give Qiao Second Young Master the title now?” Nan Zhi suppressed the unknown anger growing within her as she did her best to smile as she spoke.

Old Mrs Qiao stood up. “Based on this letter my late daughter-in-law, Pei Lin, left.”

Mu Sihan got someone to bring the letter over.

“Qiao Yanze’s actions back then render him unfit to take charge of the Qiao family. He smeared the Qiao family’s century-long reputation. Even if he was a victim, if he never had feelings for a woman he should never have feelings for and ignored his mother, Pei Lin’s advice, the Qiao family would never have been devastated to such a deplorable state. Although he is doing his best now to make up for it, can he make my daughter-in-law come back to life?

“This letter was written by Pei Lin personally. I’m sure that many of you here know very well that Pei Lin doted on this youngest son of hers greatly and long gave him the right as the heir. However, how was he like in the past? He was playful and never serious. If I have to point it out, he is the main culprit behind his mother’s death! If not, why would Pei Lin, who doted on him so much, write this letter using her own blood?”
