Chapter 856 Grandpa Zheng Has Gone Mad!
On the way, Chen Xuan learned from the young man that Grandpa Zheng had gone mad ten days ago. He had been acting like a lunatic, babbling incoherently. He had been to many hospitals, but all the examinations showed no physical problems. Yet, Grandpa Zheng remained delirious. Many people wanted to see him, but their requests were all rejected.
The order to prevent outsiders from visiting was given by Zheng Tianpeng, under the pretense of allowing Grandpa Zheng to rest well.
"How could this happen?"
Su Yunxi frowned, a shadow of gloom crossing her brow.
Grandpa Zheng was extremely important to Su Yunxi at this moment. It could be said that it was crucial for Su Yunxi to obtain rare earth to continue manufacturing the lithography machine.
Of course, there were other reasons as well.
Su Yunxi also had a good relationship with Grandpa Zheng. But how could a perfectly healthy person suddenly turn into a madman?
Chen Xuan pondered this question in his mind. He glanced at the villa and then surveyed the surrounding environment, seeming to have figured something out.
"Chen Xuan, do you think Grandpa Zheng might be possessed?" Su Yunxi suddenly asked.
Chen Xuan looked at Su Yunxi in surprise and frowned, "My Yunxi is getting smarter and smarter!"
Su Yunxi smiled charmingly, "It's because I've seen too many things."
If it were the old Su Yunxi, she would never have believed in superstitions and the supernatural. But now, having encountered many strange things, Su Yunxi firmly believed in them.
"Is that so?"
Su Yunxi pressed.
Chen Xuan calmly said, "Why don't we go in and see?"
Looking at Chen Xuan's eyes, Su Yunxi felt that she might have guessed correctly.
Instead of going to the main building facing the entrance, they went to a two-story villa behind the main building. Standing at the door, Chen Xuan signaled the servant to knock: "Madam, someone wants to see the Master!"
"Didn't I say that the Master is critically ill and won't see anyone? We don't want to trouble anyone..."
A hoarse female voice came from inside the room.
The servant cursed inwardly after hearing this. He didn't want to come either, but if he didn't, he would be in trouble!
The servant's mouth moved, unsure how to explain. At this moment, Su Yunxi stepped forward: "Grandma, it's Yunxi. I heard Grandpa Zheng is sick, so I came to visit..."
"It's Yunxi?"
A slight exclamation of joy came from the room, followed by the sound of footsteps. The door opened, revealing an aged female face, but she looked quite energetic.
This was Grandpa Zheng's wife, Wu Xiufang!
"Grandma Wu!"
Su Yunxi called out smilingly upon seeing Wu Xiufang.
Grandma Wu seemed to be old, and her eyesight was not good. She scrutinized Su Yunxi for a long time before recognizing her. She smiled broadly, "Yunxi, it really is you! Grandma misses you so much!"
"Grandma, I miss you too!"
Su Yunxi hugged Grandma Wu, her face beaming. It was evident that Su Yunxi truly missed Grandma Wu.
When she was young, Su Qian was busy and couldn't come to Hong Kong. It was Grandpa Su who brought Su Yunxi to Hong Kong for visits. Every time they came to Hong Kong, they would stay at the Zheng family's residence. When she grew a bit older and during summer holidays, Su Yunxi would come to Hong Kong to play, accompanied by bodyguards.
Later, as she got older and started working, Su Yunxi visited Hong Kong less frequently. However, the deep friendship forged during those times reignited upon meeting again.
Wu Xiufang held Su Yunxi's wrist like she did when she was a child and walked towards the room. However, she noticed that Su Yunxi, wearing high heels, was half a head taller than her. She couldn't help but sigh again, "Little Yunxi has grown up!"
The group entered.
Seeing this, the servant breathed a sigh of relief and quickly slipped away!
"This is..."
Wu Xiufang noticed Chen Xuan beside Su Yunxi at this moment.
When she first saw Chen Xuan, she thought he was a bodyguard. But it was clear that Chen Xuan's relationship with Su Yunxi was very close.
"This is my fiancé, Chen Xuan!" Su Yunxi smiled slightly, hugged Chen Xuan's arm, and introduced him with a smile.
"Hello, Grandma Wu!"
Chen Xuan greeted her casually.
"Good, good! A talented young man! Excellent, excellent!"
Wu Xiufang looked at Chen Xuan, her smile reaching her eyes. "Yunxi has truly grown up!"
Then, she teased, "Yunxi, when can we have your wedding banquet?"
Su Yunxi couldn't help but blush. "It should be soon..."
"Yunxi, you're not young anymore. Get married soon and let your grandfather hold his grandchild early!"
Wu Xiufang said with a smile.
Su Yunxi blinked.
According to her original plan, Su Yunxi and Chen Xuan's wedding date would be set after entering the capital. But now, she was a little hesitant, because Chen Xuan was too sought after. Even a beautiful and confident woman like Su Yunxi couldn't help but feel a sense of insecurity.
After a simple exchange of pleasantries, Su Yunxi asked seriously, "Grandma Wu, what exactly happened to Grandpa Zheng?"
Upon hearing this, Grandma Wu's expression dimmed. She shook her head, "I don't know what's happening. We've seen doctors from all the hospitals, and his body is perfectly fine, but he's just not mentally well..."
Su Yunxi glanced at Chen Xuan, then looked at Grandma Wu again. "Grandma Wu, Chen Xuan has excellent medical skills. Why don't we let Chen Xuan take a look?"
"The young man is also a doctor?"
Grandma Wu was a bit surprised. Did the Su family find a doctor as a son-in-law?
This was quite unexpected for her, considering the Su family was a prominent family.
"He's not purely a doctor, but his medical skills are quite good," Su Yunxi said, seeming to guess Grandma Wu's thoughts.
"Then let's give it a try."
Grandma Wu nodded.
In fact, Grandma Wu didn't really believe in Chen Xuan at first. After all, all the famous doctors in Hong Kong had been consulted, and none of them could find any problem. Could Chen Xuan cure him?
However, since Su Yunxi had this filial intention, she couldn't say anything.
Moreover, Grandpa Zheng's condition was currently incurable, so they could only try anything as a last resort.
Grandma Wu stood up and led Chen Xuan and Su Yunxi upstairs.
As soon as they went upstairs, a scream rang out: "The sky is going to rain, and my mother is going to get married!"
"Little Flower Dog is gone!"
"Ah— I want to find Little Flower Dog!"
"This is..." Su Yunxi frowned.
"Oh no, the old man is having an episode again!"
Grandma Wu's expression instantly changed. Despite her unsteady steps, she rushed into a room, followed closely by Su Yunxi and Chen Xuan.
Upon entering the room, they saw an old man with messy hair, crawling on the ground, searching for something. A maid beside him was also crawling on the ground, looking for something.
"Madam, the Master is having an episode again!"
Upon seeing Grandma Wu, the maid looked as if she had found a savior and quickly got up from the ground.
Grandma Wu hurried over and reached out to help Grandpa Zheng, but Grandpa Zheng pushed her away. Grandma Wu twisted her ankle instantly, breaking out in a cold sweat from the pain.
Su Yunxi quickly stepped forward and helped Grandma Wu up. Seeing that Grandma Wu was fine, she turned to Grandpa Zheng and said, "Grandpa Zheng, do you recognize me? I'm Yunxi..."
Grandpa Zheng was slightly taken aback. He nodded looking at Chen Xuan, but his eyes were vacant, unclear if he understood.
"Grandpa Zheng, Chen Xuan is my fiancé. I asked Chen Xuan to examine you!"
Su Yunxi thought Grandpa Zheng had calmed down and gave Chen Xuan a look.
