The only way Lu Zhiyuan could be assured about the surgery was if he and Lucas had already reached some deal.
As if he had guessed what I was thinking, Yan Meng continued, "Lu Zhiyuan is indeed very smart. He saw through Lucas's true identity at some point and recognized him as the person who had researched chips with him online in the past. He was also the one who truly controlled the technology in our organization. So Lu Zhiyuan knew very well that Lucas would not sincerely perform the surgery for you. For a technophile like him, all Lucas wanted was to research chips."
Sure enough, everything was exactly as I expected.
But given Lu Zhiyuan's personality, there was no way he would give up on performing surgery on me, especially after the doctor warned him that my leg would be at risk of persistent infection.
He was determined to remove the chip from my leg and save my leg.
Yan Meng laughed sarcastically. "In this world, apart from Lucas, no one else can remove the chip in your leg. So even if Lu Zhiyuan doesn't trust Lucas anymore, he can only pin his hopes on Lucas."
"For your safety, Lu Zhiyuan went straight to Lucas and confronted him. He used his status as the inventor of the chip and offered to work with Lucas to complete the unfinished chip. As a condition of the deal, he exchanged the activation code for the external device developed by Lucas."
For a technology enthusiast, nothing can impress him more than continuing to study.
So Lucas readily agreed to Lu Zhiyuan's conditions, but he couldn't give the password to him just because of Lu Zhiyuan's promise.
Thinking of the quiet atmosphere around when Lu Zhiyuan answered the phone, I suddenly realized something.
I suddenly grabbed Yan Meng's collar and asked, "So before I started the surgery, Lu Zhiyuan had already been taken away by your people, right?!"
Yan Meng's mouth curled into a mocking smile, and he asked me, "What else? If he wasn't sure that Lu Zhiyuan couldn't play any tricks, why do you think Lucas gave him the password?"
I felt my scalp tingling and my whole body froze.
In order to allow me to complete the operation smoothly, Lu Zhiyuan did not hesitate to use himself as a condition of the transaction!
That was clearly the research he least wanted to complete, so there was no way he would cooperate with them.
By doing this, he was risking his own life in exchange for my leg.
I bit my lips tightly, trying to hold back the tears that were about to burst out of my eyes.
My heart felt like it was being burned, with waves of burning pain.
If I had known he would do this, I would never have agreed to it.
How could he be so stupid? Did he think I cared more about this leg than him?
Why doesn't he understand? Even if I don't want this leg, I just want him to be alive and well!
At this moment, I wanted to immediately ask Yan Meng where Lu Zhiyuan was, and then go find him at all costs.
But I had to control my emotions because there were still many things I didn't understand that needed to be clarified.
I suppressed the sob in my throat and asked Yan Meng in confusion, "Even if Lu Zhiyuan got the password, I had the surgery in the hospital. There were detectives stationed all around the hospital. How did you manage to get me out of the hospital?"
When Yan Meng heard what I said, he laughed out loud.
He looked at me with pity in his eyes and asked, "Xiao Shan, why are you still so naive? You don't really think that those Interpol officers stayed in the hospital just to protect your safety, do you?"
