章 1688: The Brook Family's Territory

A few days later.

Qiao Xi and Gu Zheng flew to the capital. The first thing they did after getting off the plane was to visit the divine physician, Shang Xiao.

Along the way, Qiao Xi's heart thumped. The moment she entered the ward, her heart tightened. Although the wounds on Shang Xiao's body had been treated, she could still tell how serious they were. His body was filled with instruments, and he wore an oxygen mask, looking as if he could die at any time.

"Grandpa!" Qiao Xi choked as tears fell uncontrollably.

She approached the bed, but her fingers froze in midair. She did not dare to touch him.

Gu Zheng pulled her into his arms and gently wiped her tears. He comforted her softly, saying, "Don't cry. He'll definitely wake up."
