"Young Master." The attending doctor Kevin took off his mask and said, "Mr. Fei has been waiting for you for a long time."
Night Owl lowered his head and looked at his adoptive father.
Ference was a very cautious and careful person. His personal doctor only served him. For decades, no other person had been served by Kempin.
"Stop looking at it. Lie down quickly and let Kevin give you a thorough check."
"Tang Song has seen it before."
"How can I trust a young man like Tang Song? Okay, lie down." Ferrens' tone of voice was always neither light nor heavy, but his majesty made it impossible for others to refute his words.
Ye Xiao lay down as he was told, and Kevin carefully performed a series of examinations on him. He had not slept all night last night, and then drove for several hours directly to the airport in Country S, and then returned to Jude City in Country T. He had been busy all day and almost didn't close his eyes for a moment. Now lying down, Ye Xiao only felt his eyelids heavy, and after a while, he fell asleep directly.
When he woke up again, the light above his head was so bright that it blinded his eyes. He frowned and stared at the strong light for a few seconds, feeling desolate. At that moment, he felt like he was walking in a desolate field. The field was very large, and it seemed that no matter how far he walked, even if he was exhausted, he would never reach the end.
After a while, I heard Kevin's voice.
"Mr. Fei, Young Master's bullet is indeed difficult to handle."
"What do you mean by 'difficult to handle'?" Ference's tone was intimidating. "I spend hundreds of millions every year to update you with the most advanced medical equipment, conduct the most advanced drug research, and absorb the most advanced medical technology, and all you give me in return is the four words 'difficult to handle'?"
"Mr. Fei, please forgive us for our incompetence. The bullet left in the young master's body, if the knife is slightly off, the consequences will be disastrous. Our medical team unanimously agreed that we can only wait and see what happens to the young master's bullet for the time being."
"If we wait and see, we will leave a time bomb locked in his body, threatening his life at any time! Kevin, do you still not understand the seriousness of the matter? Night Owl is my only son, Ferrens. If he gets hurt because of this bullet, not only you, but also your entire medical team will not be able to escape! You will all be buried with him!"
Kevin held his breath, stood there with his body tense, and dared not say a word.
Right now, we are in a difficult situation.
"Godfather, please don't embarrass Kevin." Night Owl sat up from the bed and buttoned his shirt one by one. Compared to Ferrens's anger at the moment, he, as the person involved, was surprisingly calm. "If you insist on taking this bullet out now, I might die immediately. If it stays in my body, it depends on whether I am strong enough. However, if the King of Hell wants to take me away, it depends on whether he has the ability to do so."
When Ferens heard his words, his tense expression relaxed a little. Finally, he waved at Kevin and said angrily, "Everyone, leave!"
"...Yes." Kevin didn't dare to neglect it, fearing that if he delayed any further, Mr. Fei would give him a hard time. So he quickly evacuated with his medical team.
In the side hall.
For a moment, only Ferens and Night Owl were left.
"Do you blame your godfather for those shots?" Ferrens asked in a deep voice.
"My son doesn't dare."
"Since you don't dare, do you know you are wrong?" Ferrens pushed the wheelchair, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, turned around, and looked at Night Owl with a sharper look. "Night Owl, it's not scary to fall into the hands of a woman once, and it's not scary to fall into the hands of different women several times. What's scary is that you fell into the hands of the same woman twice! My son, he didn't show mercy when the gun was pointed at his own father, can't he get over the 'emotion' test? If so, I may really have to assess that woman carefully. Should I find a chance to meet her in person?"
Night Owl's hands buttoning his shirt tightened a little because of Ferrens's next words. However, his expression remained calm, without any change. "You don't have to worry about that kind of woman again. There won't be a next time."
"Will there really not be a next time?" Ferrens narrowed his eyes.
"Never will!"
After hearing Night Owl's assurance, Ferens's expression gradually relaxed. The sharpness in his eyes also disappeared for a moment, replaced by the initial kindness, "Very good. I brought you up, and I believe your assurance. Okay, let's not talk about this heavy topic, let's talk about something happy..."
Ferrens' tone suddenly became much more relaxed. He put his elbows on the wheelchair armrests and crossed his hands. "I know you have been looking for your mother for so many years."
Night Owl's breathing tightened, he raised his head, and cast a heavy gaze at Ferrens, "Godfather..."
"Don't be nervous. My godfather just wants to share your worries. Don't worry, it won't be long before you can see your mother. My godfather loves you, and it's okay for you to see anyone you want. But... you have to remember your promise and don't let my godfather down again. Do you understand?"
Night Owl looked serious and didn't say anything. Ferrens didn't say anything else, he pressed the bell and had someone push him out. When he was about to reach the door, he looked back at Night Owl and said, "Come out to eat. Today the kitchen has prepared all your favorite dishes. And... I think that little girl Nalan is very interested in you. Don't you like her type? Later, your godfather will make the decision for you."
Without giving Night Owl a chance to say anything, Ferrens had the servant push him out.
The door of the side hall was closed, and Ferens' figure disappeared completely. Ye Xiao's expression suddenly turned colder. He clenched his fist at his side.
"Sir." Yu An pushed the door open and walked in.
Ye Xiao's originally alert expression relaxed a little when he saw it was him. Yu An closed the door, took a few steps closer, and asked worriedly, "I heard that Dr. Kevin examined you. How was it?"
"It's the same as what Tang Song said."
Yu An's expression darkened. "Is there really no other way?"
"Life and death are determined by fate. There is no need to force it."
Ye Xiao looked out the window from afar. The drizzling rain outside the window made people feel depressed. After a while, he turned to look at Yu An, "If that day really comes, take good care of my mother for me. If I'm not mistaken, she is probably in the hands of my adoptive father now."
Yu An was shocked. "Since you are worried about your wife, you don't have to entrust me. I know you will be fine..."
"That's enough." Ye Xiao raised his hand, interrupting Yu An's words, and snorted, "Do you really think that anyone is so lucky that he can fight against the King of Hell? Those words are just self-deception. There's no need to waste words between you and me."
