Chapter 1557: His Change Is Truly Great

Xu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, then stepped out of the car.

And as she stepped out, she saw Wang Sinian.

"What are you doing here?"

Wang Sinian had his hands in his trouser pockets, his tone of voice a little impatient: "My grandfather knew you were coming and told me to come pick you up."

"Why pick me up? It's not like I don't know the way."

"Go ask my grandfather that."

As Wang Sinian spoke, he led the way in front.

He walked quite slowly, and Xu Xiaoxiao caught up in two steps.

Then, Wang Sinian maintained the same pace as Xu Xiaoxiao.

Xu Xiaoxiao turned her head to look at Wang Sinian.

She felt... that there was some change in Wang Sinian.

However, Xu Xiaoxiao could not say where the change was.

Just as Xu Xiaoxiao was observing, Wang Sinian tripped and almost fell.

Seeing this, Xu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and let out a laugh.

Wang Sinian immediately turned his head, looking over with a fierce expression.

Xu Xiaoxiao then turned her head away as if nothing had happened, looking elsewhere.

Because Xu Xiaoxiao turned her head, she missed the annoyance in Wang Sinian's eyes.

This was not Xu Xiaoxiao's first time coming to the Wang Family.

After entering the living room, she immediately noticed that there were changes here.

It looked like the staircase had been renovated, with wheelchair-accessible tracks installed on it.

The door handles had been lowered.

The decorative vases at the corners had all been removed.

Presumably, these changes were all for the sake of Old Master Wang.

Just as Xu Xiaoxiao was observing, a slight sound of mechanical rotation came from the end of the hallway.

She looked up and saw Old Master Wang sitting on an electric wheelchair, gently pressing the joystick.

Hmm, that was actually quite cool.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked on with curiosity.

Then she smiled and said: "You look just like those reclusive experts in movies who lend a helping hand when the protagonists are at their wit's end."

Old Master Wang was amused immediately and said: "You girl, you really know how to make people happy."

Xu Xiaoxiao also smiled, then asked: "Did you have a designer redesign this place?"

"No, it was all arranged by Sinian."

Who, Wang Sinian?!

Xu Xiaoxiao stared at the young man behind her in astonishment, thinking that one really cannot judge a book by its cover.

Noticing that Xu Xiaoxiao was looking at Wang Sinian, the old master smiled and added: "This kid, as soon as he heard you were coming, he became especially diligent."

Wang Sinian was already feeling awkward.

After being teased by the old master, he became even more awkward, frowning as he said: "I've always been diligent!"

"Heh, yes, during the time I've been recuperating at home, this kid has been taking care of me; it seems that growth really is a matter of an instant."

Indeed, growth is only a matter of an instant.

But the question is, has Wang Sinian really grown?

Xu Xiaoxiao was observing.

And her observation made Wang Sinian feel uncomfortable all over; his brows furrowed even tighter, and he muttered: "Stop talking about me, it's boring."

"That's true."

Xu Xiaoxiao replied, then chatted with Old Master Wang about his physical condition.

Knowing that Xu Xiaoxiao was going to publish a book, Old Master Wang even took the initiative to ask about the progress of the book and offered some suggestions.

These suggestions were extremely valuable, and Xu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up as she listened.

The two people over there were chatting, completely lost in their conversation.

Unable to get a word in, Wang Sinian took the opportunity to look at Xu Xiaoxiao.

Xu Xiaoxiao was really strange, and also quite dull.

She could talk about such dry things as if she never felt tired.

But...

The way she shone was also quite attractive.

Wang Sinian was attracted, staring at her without blinking.

Old Master Wang had been chatting with Xu Xiaoxiao.

But his grandson's behavior made him have to divert some of his attention to him.

Xu Xiaoxiao also noticed Wang Sinian and turned her head to ask: "Why do you keep looking at me?"

Caught in the act, Wang Sinian immediately denied it: "I didn't!"

Xu Xiaoxiao pointed to a piece of glass in front and reminded him: "This is reflective, I saw your actions!"

Wang Sinian panicked a little.

But he still wouldn't admit it, saying: "I was looking at the mural behind you! Don't be so conceited!"

The old master, however, exposed him at this moment: "A mural, enough to make you look for so long? You, if you're attracted, just say so, why find so many excuses."

"Y-you, stop talking nonsense! Even if every woman in this world were dead, I wouldn't be attracted to her!"

Wang Sinian looked furious, as if he had been insulted.

He did not want to stay either, so he lifted his feet and headed up the stairs.

Xu Xiaoxiao followed his movements, tilting her head to look up.

Then, she asked the old man, "Has he been cooped up at home lately, is his... here..."

Xu Xiaoxiao did not finish her sentence, merely raising a finger to point at her head.

Elder Wang knew this was a joke and was not angry.

On the contrary, he said with great emotion, "I am truly glad that I let Sinian return to the country. The changes in him now are truly significant; not only has he become sensible, but he also has a sense of responsibility."

Speaking of this, he looked at Xu Xiaoxiao, "And for this, I owe it to you."

Xu Xiaoxiao immediately waved her hands and said, "No, no, no, I don't have that much of an impact."

"You do. If it weren't for you urging him on, he might still be living his life in a daze."

The old man's gratitude was sincere and earnest.

But Xu Xiaoxiao still did not believe she had played a role in urging him.

If one had to say she played any role at all...

Then she was just a living target.

Whenever Wang Sinian was bored, he would find all sorts of ways to annoy her.

Sigh, she wondered if this guy would still be the same once she returned to school.

Just as Xu Xiaoxiao was sighing with emotion, Elder Wang said again, "You don't need to worry about the complaint; Sinian has already stepped in to resolve it."

The complaint...

Resolved?

Xu Xiaoxiao was stunned, then hurriedly raised her head and asked, "How did he resolve it? He didn't... beat the person up, did he?"

"No, he took a lawyer to find the man, prepared to sue him for intentional injury."

This method was something Xu Xiaoxiao had not expected.

But thinking about it... that doesn't seem right either.

Xu Xiaoxiao muttered in confusion, "To sue him for intentional injury, it should be through me filing the lawsuit, right?"

"Under normal circumstances, that is the case, but Sinian only wanted to scare that man. The lawyer he found is also a tough character; they used some tactics to bluff the other party into dropping the complaint."

Elder Wang summarized it very simply.

It was like cutting through a tangled mess with a sharp blade.

But the matter certainly could not have been that simple.

Otherwise, the school leaders would not have sighed repeatedly when communicating with Xu Xiaoxiao.

It was just that what Xu Xiaoxiao never expected was that the one who finally resolved this matter...

... was actually Wang Sinian.

And according to Wang Sinian's style, if he had accomplished this, he would definitely have come to Xu Xiaoxiao to show off.

This time, he didn't even mention a single word?

Could it be that he has truly grown up?

Xu Xiaoxiao pondered secretly.

When Xu Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows, she noticed that Elder Wang looked weary.

It stood to reason that this surgery had greatly sapped his vitality; after chatting with Xu Xiaoxiao for this short while, the old man could no longer hold up.

Xu Xiaoxiao could not bear to watch Elder Wang force himself to stay alert, so she stood up to take her leave.

Elder Wang hurriedly said, "Stay for a meal."

"Next time, I have an appointment with a friend."

Li Beijue's expression darkened in an instant; he stood up abruptly and strode out.
