"Old man, don't take me for Gu Xiaonuan. I'm not as foolish as she is; how could I be convinced by just a few of your words?"
This isn't Gu Xiaonuan. Could Si Yuchen still be fooled by this old fox at home?
Even if he intentionally allowed himself to be deceived by Si Lingtian, it definitely wouldn't be now.
Si Yuchen's feigned madness and foolishness was only acceptable in situations where no harm was done to his interests.
Once Si Lingtian's decisions affected his interests, he wouldn't let the old man cause trouble in front of him any longer.
The issue of the child was one of them. Si Lingtian actually used the child for such a dangerous experiment. From Si Lingtian's words, it was clear the child survived the surgery, something even Si Lingtian hadn't expected.
One could imagine that if not for great luck, the child might not have survived.
From birth, he was used by Si Lingtian as a lifesaving medicine, willing to sacrifice him just to bring back Si Yuhao.
