  Grandpa and Alfred were both shocked.   "Mia, are you okay?" Grandpa looked guilty and struggled to get out of bed.   "I'm fine, grandpa!" Mia came forward to stop him. Only her skirt was wet, which made her a little embarrassed.   "Ah, fine!" Grandpa sighed. He looked at Alfred, who was standing in front of his bed and said, "In the past, when I punished you, your parents didn't dare to stop me. Now someone dares to protect you!"   Alfred looked at Mia, who was lowering her head, and didn't say a word.   "Anyway, you have to deal with this matter, I can't afford to lose my face. Our Xi family has a good reputation. You have to be the head of the Xi family in the future, so you must set an example. How can you be on this kind of news!"   The old man had been a soldier for his whole life, so he was honest and upright in nature. He also hoped that his descendants could be like him. No matter how rich they were, they had to be upright, especially his favorite grandson!   "Grandpa, please rest in peace. I'll take care of this!" Alfred rested assured.   "Okay, I believe you!" The old man finally breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at Mia again and said, "I'm fine here. You can go now. Mia my dear, go back and change your clothes. Be careful not to catch a cold!"   Mia nodded and walked out of the ward with Alfred.   In the corridor, Ethan was still waiting. When he saw the two comings out, he was curious: "Yo, what's wrong?"   Just now when he heard the noise in the room, he thought Alfred would come out in a mess. Unexpectedly, it was the little girl who suffered.   Alfred glanced at him and asked, “How is my grandfather?”   "He has been recovering very well during this period of time. It's just that he was provoked today, nothing serious!"   Seeing that Alfred breathed a sigh of relief, Ethan could not help but ask, "What's going on between you and Ella..."   Before he finished his words, he suddenly noticed Mia who kept silent. So he shut his mouth.   "I got things to do in the company. I have to go now!" Alfred did not want to talk it anymore, so he turned around and was ready to leave. Mia followed.   After leaving the hospital, the car entered the city center. It was very quiet in the car. Mia didn't know where they were going. She saw a metro station not far away and said, "You can put me down at the metro entrance!"   However, the car quickly passed by the metro entrance and did not stop.   After a while, the car drove into the underground parking lot of a building. Mia noticed the big golden words at the gate of the building: Hengtai Group!   After getting out of the car, Mia was still in a daze. Alfred put his suit on her and said, "Go up with me and change your clothes!"   There was no room for argument in his tone.   Mia looked down at her skirt. The white cotton skirt had been dyed yellow by the tea, and the wet cloth even showed her underwear faintly.   She pulled up the suit and followed him into the president's elevator.   The elevator went straight to the president's office on the top floor. Alfred took Mia into the office. This was the first time Mia saw his work place, which was very large and spacious.   Soon, the secretary knocked on the door and came in. When she saw Mia, she was stunned for a moment, but soon returned to normal.   "Go to the mall and buy her a suit of clothes and send it to my office!" Alfred pointed to Mia and ordered.   "Okay!" Lily, the secretary answered. She sized Mia up and down, then went out.   Mia stood there in embarrassment. Alfred opened the door of the lounge, looked at her, and said, "There is a bathroom inside. You can take a shower!"
