When Mr Chu, Mrs Chu, and the others saw this, they looked at Chu An and Gu Xiao beside him for a while, then glanced at Ji Gao before retreating according to Chu An’s will.

Gu Xiao saw that Ji Gao seemed to be planning to use force, but she did not look worried or afraid at all.

She looked at Ji Gao ambiguously. “If 1 go to the hospital, can President Ji guarantee that I will be able to see Old Master Ji, or that 1 will be sent to the operating table when 1 reach the hospital?”

As soon as Gu Xiao said this, the few people who had come with Ji Gao immediately stopped in their tracks.

After all, they had heard the conversation between Gu Xiao and Ji Gao just now. Coupled with the words ‘operating table’, they could not help but think of some bad things.

Although they were hired by Ji Gao to take Gu Xiao away, they were unwilling to help Ji Gao do anything illegal.

If they really took Gu Xiao away in front of everyone, wouldn’t they have to bear the blame if anything happened to Gu Xiao?

The bodyguards thought this in their hearts. After looking at each other, they did not approach Gu Xiao anymore. Instead, their gazes landed on Ji Gao.

Ji Gao glared at Gu Xiao and the bodyguards angrily. “Gu Xiao! What nonsense are you talking about! You too! Hurry up and bring Gu Xiao over!”

Gu Xiao looked at Ji Gao, who was stomping his feet in fury, and sneered.

“President Ji, as far as I know, your illegitimate son has uremia and needs a kidney transplant urgently, right? It’s been so long, but you still haven’t found a suitable kidney source, so you’re targeting me?”

As soon as these words were spoken, the guests present were in an uproar.

Especially Mr Chu and Mrs Chu, who were hiding in the crowd, looked at Ji Gao with disgust.

After being exposed by Gu Xiao in public, Ji Gao’s expression turned extremely ugly.

Sensing the surrounding guests’ gazes on him, Ji Gao understood that he had to resolve this matter at this time and dispel Gu Xiao’s doubts.

Just as Ji Gao was still thinking about what to say, Ji Chen’s voice sounded behind him.

“Grandpa is sick in the hospital? Why didn’t 1 know about this?”

Ji Gao’s heart skipped a beat. He turned around and met Ji Chen’s dark gaze.

Because of Ji Chen’s sudden arrival and because of Ji Chen’s words, the guests looked at Ji Gao strangely.

Ji Gao was not as tough as when he was facing Ji Chen as he was when he was facing Gu Xiao. He smiled awkwardly. “The old man was hospitalized today, so you might not know.”

“I just called Grandpa this afternoon.”

Ji Chen’s words stopped Ji Gao from explaining.

Ji Gao looked at Ji Chen and opened his mouth, not knowing what else to say.

He did not know that Ji Chen would also come to this celebration banquet today. He thought that Ji Chen had been busy with the Ji Group recently and should not have the time to come.

But who would have thought that Ji Chen would show up before he could take Gu Xiao away?

Ji Chen took a few steps towards Ji Gao. “Dad, what exactly is going on when you said that Grandpa was in the hospital?”

Hearing Ji Chen’s question, the eyes of the surrounding guests lit up.

They also wanted to know what was going on!

Ji Gao blinked and looked away from Ji Chen. “Let’s talk about this when we get back. Your sister’s matter is more important.”

When Gu Xiao heard this, she sneered.

When Ji Gao heard this sneer, he became even angrier.

He turned around and stopped pretending to be a loving father. He looked at Gu Xiao coldly.

“Gu Xiao, are you going to this hospital today or not?”

Gu Xiao looked at Ji Gao with disdain. “President Ji, are you senile? If someone asks you to go to the hospital for a kidney transplant, will you leave with them?”

They already knew that it would be disadvantageous to them. Wouldn’t the person who still wanted to follow be a fool?

Although Gu Xiao felt that she was not very smart, she did not think that she was a fool and could not do anything that a fool would do.

When Ji Gao heard Gu Xiao mention ‘someone’, he became even angrier.

He glared at Gu Xiao. “The ‘someone’ you’re talking about isn’t an outsider! That’s your biological brother! Your biological brother is sick now. What’s wrong with asking you to provide him with a kidney transplant?!”

As soon as Ji Gao said this, the surrounding people immediately distanced themselves from Ji Gao subtly. Their disdainful gazes also landed on Ji Gao..
