169: Chapter 169 I’ll check, no whitewashing
Zhonghai, West Suburb, Thorny Rose headquarters, Rose Manor.
Inside the Ice Cave Ward.
Xue i, dressed in a thin sweater, personally supervised and directed the dical staff of Thorny Rose, moving Elder Wei, who lay on the hospital bed, with extre slowness.
“Chairman, I must remind you, with Elder Wei’s current condition, if we forcefully board him on the helicopter, it’s very likely he will die during the flight!” The one reminding Xue i was wearing a white lab coat, the head of the Thorny Rose dical team, Yu Youjun.
Yu Youjun studied abroad in his younger days, coming back with a dical doctorate from a prestigious international university.
It was also him who had spent nurous hours on the operating table, temporarily pulling Elder Wei back from the brink of death.
Therefore, Xue i had to seriously consider what Yu Youjun said.
Upon this thought, Xue i turned her head to look at Lin Fei beside her, her charming phoenix eyes filled with a look of pleading.
Feeling the uncertainty in Xue i’s eyes, Lin Fei shrugged his shoulders, “You make the choice.”
This was sothing Lin Fei obviously couldn’t decide for Xue i.
What he could offer was a chance at life for Elder Wei.
As for whether Elder Wei could hold on to his last breath and reach the Hell’s Judgent Organization’s base near Manzhou, that was entirely up to Elder Wei’s own fate.
Not getting the answer she wanted from Lin Fei, Xue i’s pretty eyes turned towards Yu Youjun, “If we leave Elder Wei here, can you cure him?”
“Cannot,” Yu Youjun imdiately gave Xue i a negative reply.
Keeping Elder Wei’s last breath was already the limit of Yu Youjun’s capabilities; curing Elder Wei was obviously beyond his ability.
Remaining in the Ice Cave Ward, Elder Wei might live a few more days.
However, that was all.
On the other hand, boarding the helicopter, there was a very good chance Elder Wei would die on the spot.
Yet, if he could endure and reach the Hell’s Judgent Organization’s base near Manzhou, he might have a chance at survival.
It was an easy yet difficult choice to make.
…
Rose Manor, helipad.
With the careful assistance of Yu Youjun and the other dical staff, the critically injured Elder Wei was safely boarded onto the helicopter.
“Chairman, I will protect Elder Wei with my life.
If anything unexpected happens to Elder Wei on the way, I, Yu Youjun, will accompany Elder Wei on the journey to the yellow springs!” This was the final word Yu Youjun left with Xue i before boarding.
At the sa ti, it could also be considered as the biggest support for Xue i’s decision.
Under the night sky, two helicopters circled upward, then departed from Rose Manor, rushing towards the Hell’s Judgent Organization’s Manzhou Base.
In truth, one helicopter would have been enough.
However, Xue i disregarded Lin Fei’s advice and insisted on using both of the Manor’s helicopters.
To so extent, by doing so, Xue i had cut off her most significant and essential ans of retreat.
Seeing Xue i take such action, Lin Fei saw clearly that this woman must have already resolved to have a life-or-death struggle with the Azure Dragon Gang.
Roses may be enticing, but their thorns also wound.
Watching the two helicopters vanish into the vast night sky, Xue i’s charming eyes turned to Lin Fei, “It’ll be alright, won’t it?”
Pulling Xue i’s jade-like shoulders towards him, Lin Fei stared intently into the woman’s hopeful and beautiful eyes, “As long as he arrives safely, I assure you, one day in the future, I will return that old guy to you, lively and kicking.”
Lin Fei wasn’t just comforting Xue i, he had the confidence to back up his words.
The dical facilities at the Hell’s Judgent Organization’s base were obviously not sothing that could be compared to those of a local gang like Thorny Rose.
Even though the Manzhou Base wasn’t the main stronghold of the Hell’s Judgent Organization, it still gathered plenty of top-tier dical personnel.
Most importantly, the base was equipped with the most advanced dical technology in the world.
Lin Fei had already phoned the Manzhou Base, and they had everything ready to treat Elder Wei.
If Elder Wei couldn’t be healed there, then there was practically nowhere else in the world that could cure him.
…
“So, the reason the Azure Dragon Gang hasn’t made a move on
these days is entirely because they’ve been focusing their efforts on dealing with you guys from Thorny Rose?” Lin Fei and Xue i walked side by side on the gravel path from the helipad of Rose Manor towards the Blood Rose Villa under the moonlight.
“Sort of, and sort of not.”
After seeing Elder Wei off and receiving Lin Fei’s promise that he would return a hopping and lively Elder Wei to her, all while having Lin Fei accompany her for a leisurely walk to clear her mind, Xue i’s previously morose mood over the past two days had significantly soothed.
“How so?” Xue i’s equivocal response made Lin Fei raise his eyebrows slightly.
“These days, the Azure Dragon Gang indeed had quite a few disputes with us from Thorny Rose.
However, the only major dispute was their attempt to assassinate Elder Wei.” At this, Xue i’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of killing intent revealing itself.
“All I did was send your man off, and you’re still giving
that angry look—who’s it for?!” Sensing the killing intent gradually building in Xue i’s captivating eyes, Lin Fei couldn’t help but pinch her cold yet charmingly alluring face, “Babe, give your man a smile.”
Poor Xue i, no matter how well-known the Chairman of Thorny Rose was, she was coerced to smile again and again for Lin Fei.
“You’re shaless!”
Having her lovely face toyed with by Lin Fei—who had just assisted her in sending Elder Wei off—Xue i still managed to throw several rolling eyes at him.
“I’m shaless because you’re beautiful.” Xue i’s scolding clearly didn’t bother Lin Fei, who was rather thick-skinned.
Moreover, Lin Daren was acting completely out of kindness.
Didn’t she see that through his shalessness, she had shed most of her negative emotions?
“I can’t be bothered with you.” Throwing him another eye roll, Xue i’s charming phoenix eyes suddenly showed a rare trace of delight.
Even though she wasn’t sure why Lin Fei was flirting with her—which was to ease her mood—she was obviously pleased with his remark that “it’s because you’re beautiful.”
No woman dislikes being praised for her beauty; despite verbally claiming to ignore Lin Fei, deep down, she felt a lot more affection toward him.
Having a different heart and mouth, this characteristic is common among many won.
Chatter and playfulness filled their walk until they soon arrived in front of Xue i’s villa.
“I’m here; you can go back to your wife now.” Standing in front of the villa’s gates, Xue i’s words instantly set Lin Fei afla.
Think about it—Lin Daren had been busying himself for almost half a day, thinking he could finally roll in the sheets, but at this mont, Xue i was telling him to leave.
If he really left now, then he, Lin Fei, wouldn’t deserve to call himself a man.
“I definitely have to go back, but before that, I’m planning to check if you’ve had a ‘clean’.” Saying that, Lin Fei waved his hand and in a swift motion, flipped away Xue i’s see-through spliced thin sweatshirt.
Tonight, the rose was destined to bloom…
