Mr. Li sprang up from his bed as soon as he heard the news, barefoot and ready to walk out, but Li Xianglu quickly grabbed him and insisted, "I'll go, I'll go!"
She dashed to the phone but got no answer from Xu Xi's side, so she hurriedly called the Shanghai office, simply stating that Grandpa was better now and to not worry.
After hanging up, she quickly helped Mr. Li back onto the bed: "Grandpa, you've brought this upon yourself. Why act like Lin Daiyu? Now look what happened."
"What?" Mr. Li smacked his granddaughter's arm in frustration, saw her wince, and quickly massaged it tenderly, reprimanding, "You child, always overdoing it. Don't you know Grandma Su can't come to the country right now? She'd probably have to be questioned as soon as she arrived."
Li Xianglu nodded, saying, "I was rash, but I was worried about you, Grandpa. I think Grandma Su is amazing. If she came and asked, 'Little Li, why are you sick?' you might have gotten better on the spot!"
