Yu Wan's expression froze, and her eyes instantly turned red.
In that instant, just like in a classic old-school Hong Kong movie, the sounds of waves, wind, rain, and shouts mingled together, yet her mind was completely blank. She saw Tang Yue look down at his chest, then slowly raise his head, leaving her with a faint smile.
His lips moved slightly.
She couldn't hear what was being said at all; she could only judge from the shape of the lips.
Don't be afraid.
At the same time, the voice of the Peacekeeper suddenly sounded in his mind: [Please invite Professor Zhang Guofeng, the best cardiologist in Jiangcheng, to treat Tang Yue within 1 hour. Reward: Hours of life points.]
Yu Wan was taken aback.
This is the system's highest reward again.
-
The surgery lasted for more than two hours.
The hospital corridor fell into a deathly silence. In the oppressive atmosphere, Ni Feng's palms became sweaty. Hearing footsteps, she looked up and saw Yuan Yuqin walking towards her.
Just as she was about to greet him, Yuan Yuqin waved her off, stopping her.
His gaze shifted, landing squarely on the girl leaning against the wall, soaked to the bone, a puddle already formed at her feet. Her head was bowed, her expression unreadable, her aura chilling. She remained motionless, making her unapproachable.
Yuan Yuqin clutched the documents he had obtained from the police interrogation and walked towards her.
"Wanwan, are you alright?" he asked with concern.
Yu Wan slowly raised her head.
His face was burning red, but a fierce glint flashed in his eyes. Upon seeing him, the coldness in his eyes softened considerably. Then his gaze fell on the leather bag, and he asked in a hoarse voice, "Whose people are they?"
Yuan Yuqin's cold expression softened slightly as he said, "It's a mysterious underground organization codenamed S. They cooperate with certain individuals or institutions to manipulate the stock market and financial markets for profit. The last time they appeared was fifteen years ago, when they were involved in the kidnapping of the Tang couple."
Yu Wan frowned immediately.
The case caused a sensation at the time, and it ended with the cruise ship explosion.
She paused for a moment, then slightly raised her chin and asked, "What about Tang Zhanhang?"
“We haven’t gotten anything out of them. The hotel’s surveillance footage has been hacked. The one you provided only proves they were together, not that it can be used as evidence for prosecution,” Yuan Yuqin said. “We’ve been watching him for a long time. He’s very cunning and hasn’t revealed any clues at all.”
Yu Wan lowered her eyes: "Does Tang Yue know?"
Yuan Yuqin nodded vigorously and hummed in agreement. He looked up at the operating room and said, "Xiao Yue has been secretly investigating all these years."
He paused, then asked in a stern voice, "What happened to Xiao Yue's hand? What did the doctor say? Can it recover to its previous state? I asked him, but he never said anything."
Yu Wan raised her eyes again and asked, "Why are you all so worried about his hand?" The Peace ship once said it was very important, but just how important is it?
Yuan Yuqin was astonished: "Didn't Xiao Yue tell you that he's a top-notch computer expert?" He lowered his voice: "The Tang couple's case is fifteen years old. The reason the police have been investigating it is because they made a deal with him. I don't know the specifics, but it seems to be related to high technology."
Yu Wan was taken aback, her jaw tightened, and her eyes darkened.
She remembered that Tang Yue had once led an AI project. At that time, she casually complained to Old Man Yu, and later Old Man Yu decided to enter the AR field and successfully acquired a then-hot startup company specializing in AR glasses research.
Yuan Yuqin clicked his tongue in amazement, thinking that the two of them were both outstanding.
"By the way," he said, glancing at her with a dark look in his eyes, "do you still play the violin?"
Yu Wan's eyes flickered, her fingers slowly clenched and then relaxed, her tone casual: "I won't poop anymore."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yuqin sighed, "It's such a pity."
After a while, he asked again, "Are you still in contact with Xi Jing?"
Yu Wan shook her head.
Selectively ignoring the fact that someone frequently sends you emails, but you never open a single one.
"Click"
The operating room door was then pushed open.
Yu Wan suddenly stood up, her legs numb from standing for too long, and she also had low blood sugar. She staggered and was about to fall to the ground when Yuan Yuqin caught her in time.
"Are you alright?" Yuan Yuqin asked worriedly. How could he be alright? The hand in his palm was burning hot. He turned his head and ordered sternly, "Ni Feng, quickly arrange for a doctor to treat Wanwan."
Yu Wan shook her head: "I want to wait until he's alright before I go."
Yuan Yuqin disagreed, but no one knew better than him how stubborn she was, just like how she insisted on boarding the plane at the last minute. He sighed and had no choice but to compromise, saying, "Five minutes. You must receive treatment in five minutes."
Yu Wan nodded, knowing that her body had already pushed itself to its limit, and she was just waiting for the outcome of this surgery.
...for better or worse.
She closed her eyes, and after a few seconds, she opened them again, the fear, tension, and helplessness in her eyes completely gone.
The nurse pushed the hospital bed out.
Yu Wan quickly stepped forward, looking at Tang Yue's pale face, her throat felt like it was blocked by something, swollen and uncomfortable.
"The surgery was successful. The patient's right lung lobe was punctured, and the wound to the chest wall has been cleaned and sutured." Zhang Guofeng said while taking off his mask, "Next, he will be transferred to the ICU for monitoring. As long as he gets through the critical period, there will be no problem."
He rubbed his throbbing temples and said to Yuan Yuqin, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back and rest."
