Capítulo 938: Chapter 584: The Inescapable Net
Lu Qingshan’s passion overflowed with sincerity; he truly regarded Tang Fei as his own grandson, caring for him imnsely.
Later on, when Tang Fei’s identity was revealed, Lu Qingshan wasn’t angry or humiliated from being deceived, instead, he continued treating Tang Fei like his grandson.
He even asked Lu Dongsheng to co over and ‘negotiate’, suggesting he ‘marry into’ the Lu Clan and beco its future Family Head.
Was this not genuine affection and regard?
In Tang Fei’s heart, he was his own Grandpa.
Perhaps because he was sleeping soundly or his body was too weak, Lu Qingshan didn’t react at all.
“Grandpa… I’m Tang Fei, I’ve returned.” Tang Fei increased his volu, calling out again.
Lu Qingshan finally reacted, slowly and arduously opening his eyes. Upon seeing Tang Fei standing in front of him, he grinned:
“Huu lu lu…”
“Huu lu lu…”
“Returned? Huu lu lu…”
“I thought I’d never see you again…”
Just like before, whenever he spoke, it involved his body’s functions and he needed to absorb a large amount of nutrient fluid.
But, the frequency was too high.
Tang Fei felt full of worry inside.
“How could that be?” Tang Fei tightly gripped Lu Qingshan’s large hand, smiling, and said, “I promised to co back to see you, and I indeed ca back to see you. Isn’t this fulfilling my promise?”
“Good child… huu lu lu… truly a good child.”
“Grandpa…”
Lu Siyu’s voice choked with emotion, her face already covered with tears.
Tang Fei could sowhat conceal, but Lu Siyu couldn’t control it; tears flowed out uncontrollably.
Not having seen him for a period of ti, Grandpa’s health had declined to such an extent.
Her heart was filled with guilt and worry.
Guilt from not being by his side, worry fearing Grandpa wouldn’t be able to hold on and would leave her…
Her father’s life and death were unknown, and Grandpa’s health was deteriorating; her closest ones were departing one by one.
Where did she belong?
What aning was there to living?
“Si Yu… my precious granddaughter is back too…”
“Huu lu lu… good, very good…”
“Don’t cry… crying makes you look bad…”
“I’m not crying.” Lu Siyu wiped away her tears and said, “I’m not crying.”
Luckily, she usually didn’t wear makeup; otherwise, she would already look like a clown.
“I know about what you guys did outside…”
“Very good… huu lu lu… you all did very well…”
Tang Fei spoke worriedly, “Grandpa, why don’t you rest a bit… and we’ll co back later to chat with you?”
“Rest for what? Huu lu lu… I’ve been lying for decades… huu lu lu, rested enough…”
Lu Dongsheng knew that because Tang Fei and Lu Siyu ca back, his uncle’s emotions were too agitated, requiring a large amount of nutrient fluid.
Thus, he spoke, “Let Tang Fei and Lu Siyu rest… it’s been a tough journey for them, they even encountered Black Bat’s pursuit by the edge of Songhai…”
“You don’t know about this, do you? I’ll tell you…”
Lu Dongsheng signaled to Tang Fei and Lu Siyu to go and rest.
“Grandpa, you have a good rest for now. We’re going to eat sothing… We’ll co back to see you later.”
Tang Fei also understood the purpose of Lu Dongsheng’s actions, first letting Lu Qingshan digest what happened slowly, and then chatting again when his emotions are completely stable might be better.
“Alright… huu lu lu… Go eat quickly… don’t go hungry…”
Tang Fei saw Lu Qingshan close his eyes again and then released his hand, leaving the room with Little Fatty and Lu Siyu.
Outside in the courtyard, seeing Lu Siyu’s red and tear-swollen eyes, Tang Fei consoled her, “Grandpa will be fine… it’s been so many years, this ti too.”
“Mm.” Lu Siyu nodded firmly, saying, “Grandpa will be fine… Dad will be fine too…”
Tang Fei looked at Lu Siyu in surprise.
He had never heard Lu Siyu call the old man ‘Grandpa’; this must be the first ti.
The ice in her heart must have completely lted by now, right?
“I’ll go see him.” Lu Siyu said.
“Let’s go together.” Tang Fei nodded.
In chanical City, there’s also a hospital, nad ‘Tian Gong Hospital’.
When Tang Fei, Lu Siyu, and others rushed there, Tian Gong Hospital’s doctors had just conducted a collective consultation on the old man’s condition.
In the eting room, everyone was discussing the information they had.
“First is the nutrient fluid issue… after the patient was severely injured, he’s been soaking in this Dragon Blood Number Seven nutrient fluid. If we rashly replace the nutrient fluid, we can’t be sure if the patient’s body will have a rejection reaction…”
“It’s fine if he can adapt, but once rejection occurs… with the patient’s current physical condition, it would be hard to salvage.”
“Most of the body is deficient… this part requires artificial chanical supplentation.”
“With Tian Gong Hospital’s technical level, this part isn’t a problem… However, who will perform the surgery is a concern…”
“The integration of chanical body and flesh body is a major issue, requiring extre caution… If it’s just supplenting one hand or one foot, it’s a small matter; anyone present could perform the surgery…”
“But the patient needs to supplent extensive chest and brain deficiencies… even so vital organs…”
“There are very few candidates across the whole Empire who can perform this surgery…”
——
“Can Doctor Qin Luo do it?” Tang Fei asked.
“Certainly. There’s no better candidate than him.” The director of Tian Gong Hospital, Wang Yangxin, said.
“Phoenix’s number one surgeon, that’s no joke…” Wang Xiushao agreed.
“If Doctor Qin Luo can perform the surgery, the success rate is at least over sixty percent… but, Doctor Qin Luo is in Phoenix City, how can we invite him over?”
——
Indeed, the issue still ca down to the ‘chief surgeon’.
Tang Fei’s previous choice was Qin Luo, the foremost physician of his generation, and having him perform the surgery would naturally greatly increase the success rate.
However, Qin Luo was currently in Phoenix City, which was tightly guarded under Shen Wuxiang’s watchful managent…
He could predict that he would escort the old man’s ‘remains’ to the Barren Land, and naturally could guess needing Qin Luo, the ‘number one surgeon’ of the Phoenix Empire.
With Shen Wuxiang’s operating style, Qin Luo’s surroundings might already be thoroughly guarded, waiting with a trap ready to catch them.
Not going?
The old man was in critical condition.
To go or not to go?
Going? That’s walking into a trap.
Tang Fei had just solved one difficulty only to face an even harder dilemma.
If you are adept at solving problems, then you will be t with countless problems ahead.
Tang Fei is the spiritual icon of the ‘Tang#@ Bandit’ organization, yet cannot be like his followers: falling down and lying there.
That sensation… must be very comfortable, right?
