15: Who knows what they're doing?
[Ding!]
[Today's Intelligence Refresh!]
[Intelligence 1]: This morning, Chen Zhongshi's surgery was successful.
[Intelligence 2]: Last night, Bai Yuyan worried about Chen Yang's condition and was conflicted because she was older than him.
[Intelligence 3]: Gao Fei wants to take revenge on Chen Yang. Gao Fei is a dangerous person, using his position to engage in organ trafficking. Furthermore, he was turned during his studies abroad and has been providing intelligence to Japan since returning home.
Today's intelligence still contained no information about making money.
The damn System hadn't changed either.
Chen Yang was very disappointed.
If the System upgraded, he would get a few more pieces of intelligence every day.
The probability of getting money-making intelligence would certainly increase.
What a pity.
The damn System was useless.
Chen Yang really wanted to take a knife and castrate it.
After thinking about it, he decided not to act.
It wasn't 12 AM yet; he had promised to give it one day.
Let's wait patiently!
The three pieces of intelligence today.
The first piece made Chen Yang the happiest.
His father's successful surgery meant a hopeful recovery, and the family being healthy and safe again—this was immense happiness!
The second piece moved Chen Yang slightly; he needed to find an opportunity to counsel Bai Yuyan.
The third piece of intelligence shocked Chen Yang the most!
He never expected that Gao Fei would be such a beast in human clothing!
He looked decent on the outside but was actually utterly deranged.
Not only did he engage in organ trafficking, earning dirty money.
But he also defected to the little devils, betraying his ancestors and providing intelligence to a foreign country.
This was a complete and utter piece of trash!
He merely asked Bai Yuyan out for a meal, and he wanted revenge.
Just how dark must a person like that's heart be?
After Chen Yang finished washing up, he left the hotel and specifically went to a breakfast shop to buy a relatively exquisite breakfast.
He took it to Bai Yuyan's office.
Bai Yuyan had just changed into her white uniform.
"Brother Yang, what's up, coming to find me this early?"
Chen Yang placed the hearty breakfast in front of her.
"Sister Yan, you haven't eaten breakfast yet, have you? I prepared this specially for you."
Bai Yuyan smiled radiantly.
She sat down and slowly savored the delicious breakfast.
"How did you know I hadn't eaten?"
Chen Yang smiled somewhat mysteriously.
"I guessed you didn't sleep well last night, so you woke up late this morning and didn't have time for breakfast."
Bai Yuyan thought of something, and her face flushed.
"Nonsense! How do you know I didn't sleep well? I slept soundly!"
Chen Yang laughed heartily.
"Really? I thought Sister Yan was worried about my health, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep?"
Bai Yuyan focused on eating her breakfast, hiding the shyness in her heart.
Chen Yang stopped teasing her and sighed deeply instead.
"Sigh..."
"Actually, I know Sister Yan cares about me and worries about my illness."
"But life and death are destined, and fortune is determined by heaven. Many things are not within our control."
"The first step now is to cure my father's illness, and the next step will be mine."
"Don't worry, I've already found a lost ancient formula. As long as I gather all the medicinal ingredients, it can cure my illness."
"Even if the worst comes to the worst and nothing can be done, I can still face life with a smile and calmly confront every minute and every second of my remaining life."
"Especially..."
"Having met a great beauty like Sister Yan—beautiful and kind-hearted, and so concerned about me—I can wake up smiling in my sleep."
"I have no regrets in this life!"
At this moment, Bai Yuyan.
While eating her breakfast, her tears flowed uncontrollably.
Chen Yang pulled out a napkin and carefully wiped her tears away.
He felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.
The so-called ancient Chinese medicine formula was naturally a white lie.
The purpose was to ease Bai Yuyan's mind and prevent her from worrying so much and feeling anxious about gains and losses.
As for facing life with a smile.
That was also self-comfort.
Young and possessing a cheat System, his script should have been a powerful comeback to reach the pinnacle of life.
Who could be content with ending things hastily?
However.
Judging by Bai Yuyan's reaction, Chen Yang's little performance seemed to have worked well.
[Ding! Received 10 points. Keep up the good work!]
Points went from 0 to 10.
Chen Yang felt the joy of recovering something lost!
Keep going!
"Sister Yan, take your time eating. I'm going to check on my dad!"
Chen Yang left, radiating sunshine.
Bai Yuyan stared fixedly, momentarily dazed.
Entering the ward.
"Dad, how are you feeling?"
Chen Yang squatted by the bed, looking at his sickly-faced father.
"I'm fine, I feel okay."
His father forced a smile, but couldn't hide his inner anxiety.
He was scheduled to enter the operating room this morning.
This was a major operation, and whether he would come out successfully was hard to say.
Chen Yang glanced at his mother.
Deep worry was also hidden in her eyes.
The first piece of intelligence stated clearly that his father's surgery today would be very successful.
Chen Yang felt much calmer.
"Dad, Mom, don't worry, the surgery today will definitely be successful!"
"I just saw Director Bai, and she said everything is ready. Based on her many successful experiences in the past, this time will certainly be foolproof."
Chen Zhongshi and Yang Aihua exchanged glances.
Both felt much more settled.
Since the chief surgeon was so confident, what did they have to worry about?
"Mhm, Dad isn't worried."
Chen Zhongshi's expression relaxed.
"Yang Zi, when the surgery is over, you must thank Director Bai properly."
Yang Aihua reminded her son.
Chen Yang nodded in agreement.
"Don't worry, I will."
[Ding!] [Received 10 points. Current cumulative points: 20 points.] [Keep up the hard work!]
Points are rapidly increasing... Oh, come on!
08:10 AM.
Chen Zhongshi entered the operating room.
Chen Yang and his mother, Yang Aihua, waited outside.
Chen Yang had the intelligence prompt, so he was aware and appeared slightly calmer.
Yang Aihua, however, was very uneasy, pacing back and forth in the corridor.
She kept looking toward the operating room.
Her eyes were full of concern.
Time ticked by, minute by minute, and two hours passed.
The operating room door still hadn't opened.
Yang Aihua grew even more worried.
She was restless.
"Mom, don't worry. Just wait a little longer. Dad will definitely be fine."
Chen Yang comforted her softly.
11:45.
The operating room door finally opened.
Bai Yuyan walked out, her face full of exhaustion.
"Sister Yan, how did it go?"
Chen Yang rushed over and asked anxiously.
Bai Yuyan nodded:
"Everything went smoothly, the surgery was a great success!"
Chen Yang forcefully suppressed the urge to rush forward and hug her.
Excitedly, he bent over, bowing ninety degrees in thanks.
"Thank you!"
Yang Aihua also couldn't hide her excitement and kept muttering.
"Thank you, Doctor! Thank you, Doctor!"
An hour later.
Chen Zhongshi was brought back to the ward by medical staff for observation and follow-up treatment.
Chen Yang stayed in the ward for two hours.
Seeing that his father was doing well, he finally relaxed.
For a long time.
His father's illness had been a constant weight on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe easily.
Today.
That heavy stone was finally removed.
He felt a sense of relief and lightness.
But.
His own illness would be known to his parents sooner or later.
How should he tell them?
How would they bear it?
Chen Yang desperately wished he still had plenty of time.
To spend more time with his parents.
To experience many wonderful things in the world.
Such as: love... "Mom, Dad, I'm going to thank Director Bai."
Fearing his parents would notice his abnormal emotions, Chen Yang quickly left the ward.
He arrived at Bai Yuyan's office.
Finding her looking unwell, he asked with concern:
"Sister Yan, are you alright?"
Bai Yuyan replied weakly.
"I'm fine."
"It's just that the surgery took a bit long, and the high concentration level made me a little tired."
Chen Yang walked closer and looked at her complexion.
"Sister Yan, do you want to go back and rest?"
Bai Yuyan shook her head and said naturally:
"Pour me a glass of water."
Chen Yang immediately got a cup of hot water from the dispenser and brought it to Bai Yuyan.
"Thank you!"
Bai Yuyan reached out to take it.
Accidentally, her delicate hand touched Chen Yang's hand.
Both their hearts trembled, and their hands shook.
Clang!
The cup fell to the floor, shattering into pieces.
The hot water spilled out.
"Ah!"
Chen Yang immediately covered the area, crying out from the burn.
Looking closely.
A large section of his trousers was soaked with hot water.
Bai Yuyan panicked.
She spun around quickly.
She grabbed a handful of tissues and rushed to Chen Yang.
She squatted down.
Blowing on the area while wiping it.
Bang!
The office door was suddenly pushed open.
Gao Fei, his face wreathed in smiles and holding a bouquet of red roses, excitedly rushed in.
The next second.
The smile on his face completely collapsed!
It was replaced by—
An expression a million times worse than pig liver, like he was eating excrement!
What was going on?
What were they... doing?
