Halfway through, his phone rang. It was from the driver. “Young Master, there is one thing I forgot to tell you. Miss Shi said that she intends to visit Old Master Lin at the hospital later in the afternoon…”

“If she wants to visit Grandfather, so be it…” Lin Jiage replied leisurely, inwardly wondering if there was something wrong with the driver. Why was he calling to say that Soft Bun wanted to visit his grandfather?

Thinking this, he moved the phone away from his ear, intending to hang up.

However, his phone had barely reached his neck when Lin Jiage suddenly froze on the spot, as if someone had sealed his acupoints.

Noticing that Lin Jiage had stopped abruptly, Xia Shangzhou and Lu Benlai also halted their footsteps before they turned towards him with confused gazes.

“Boss, what’s wrong?”

“Who called you and put that grave look on your face?”

Ignoring the duo chattering beside him, Lin Jiage raised his phone back to his ear and began speaking once more. This time, his tone was devoid of the leisure that it had a moment ago. “Why didn’t you inform me earlier that she wanted to visit Grandfather in the afternoon?”

Before the driver could explain himself, Lin Jiage had already continued on, “Didn’t you call last night to tell me that the matter is settled? Is this what you meant by settled?”

As he spoke, he had already turned around and began dashing for the school gate.

Lu Benlai: “Boss, you’re heading the wrong way! The classroom is over there…”

Xia Shangzhou: “Boss, you’ve only got a minute before the Great Demon King starts his class! He might favor you a lot, but if you’re going to skip his class so openly, he’ll definitely drown you with tough questions in the next one…”

If Lin Jiage kept walking with them, he’d truly be walking the wrong way!

Putting aside the Great Demon King, even if it were Abbess Miejue 1 ‘s class, he would still skip it without any hesitation…

Ignoring the noisy duo behind him, Lin Jiage hung up the phone and hastened his footsteps.

A few steps later, his quick walk turned into a sprint.

…

After speeding to the hospital on a taxi, Lin Jiage hurriedly passed a few bills to the driver, and without even waiting for the change, he rushed right out.

There were many people waiting by the elevator, and after waiting for ten seconds or so, Lin Jiage opted to walk up the emergency staircase by the side instead. Taking two steps at a time, he rushed up ten floors in one shot.

Just as he left the emergency staircase, he saw Shi Yao’s figure strolling into his grandfather’s ward.

What a relief… She just got here too…

Not even daring to catch his breath, Lin Jiage rushed straight towards his grandfather’s ward.

A second after Shi Yao closed the door, he pushed it open forcefully, causing the shocked individuals in the ward to direct confused gazes towards him.

Auntie Sun was the first to speak up, “Young Master, what’s wrong? You’re completely soaked in sweat!”

Lin Jiage, who was still basking in relief that he made it in time, stood on the spot without saying a word, his breathing slightly unsteady.

On the other hand, the old man had been leisurely sipping on a cup of tea while leaning against his bed. Grandpa Lin shot a questioning glance towards Shi Yao—who’d suddenly paid a visit without a word beforehand—before turning his gaze towards Lin Jiage, whose arrival was as abrupt as Shi Yao’s. A moment later, he swiftly adjusted his expression to feign the look of someone deeply ill before he turned to Auntie Sun to speak in a feeble tone, “This cup is a little too heavy. Bring me another one.”

Auntie Sun quickly did as she was told.

Grandpa Lin ‘very strenuously’ took two sips of the tea before saying, “Auntie Sun, I’m feeling a little tired. Help me into a resting position.”

Auntie Sun did as she was instructed once more.

Finally, after Grandpa Lin was lying comfortably on the hospital bed, he turned his gaze towards Lin Jiage and asked, “Shouldn’t you be in class right now?”
