Chapter Thirty-Six: Telling Everything



After resting in his dormitory for a while, Ji Yueyao went to Wei Kang's house. Standing at the door of Wei Kang's house, Ji Yueyao hesitated for a long time but still did not knock.

She didn't know how to tell Wei's father about it.

How should I put it? Did your son become paralyzed because someone else fouled, or did the higher-ups simply ignore him because he failed, leaving him to fend for himself?

Ji Yueyao felt as if she were slapping herself for saying those words.

After standing at the door for a while, she realized that she was actually feeling a bit weak. Was it because the sun was too strong? Ever since she returned from the military region competition, her body had become weaker and weaker.

Leaning casually against the wall, she shook her head as hard as she could to clear her head.

"Ji Yueyao, what are you doing here?" A familiar voice came from ahead. Ji Yueyao looked over and found that it was Lin Xuan from her workplace.

"Lin Xuan?" Ji Yueyao was a little stunned. Why... did Lin Xuan leave Wei Kang's house?

Lin Xuan looked at Ji Yueyao and chuckled softly, "I've heard about the results of this competition. Ji Yueyao, you're really amazing. You're the only winner."

"Hmm..." Ji Yueyao's voice was somewhat low, as if she was unwilling to talk about this topic. "Lin Xuan, what are you doing at Wei Kang's house?"

"Ah, me? I was asked by Wei Kang to take care of his father." Lin Xuan looked up and smiled. "Wei Kang and I grew up together. This guy went to participate in the competition again... By the way, I heard that Wei Kang became a superhuman. How come he still failed? That doesn't make sense!"

Lin Xuan pursed his lips, not noticing Ji Yueyao's sudden change in expression. "Where's Wei Kang? Why haven't I seen him?"

"You don't know what happened to Wei Kang?" Ji Yueyao frowned slightly. Back then, Wei Kang said he wanted to ask a friend to take care of his father. Was that friend Lin Xuan?

Lin Xuan shook his head. The only news that reached the base was that Ji Yueyao had become the final victor; no news of the others had been sent back.

Seeing Lin Xuan's confused expression, Ji Yueyao understood what was going on and couldn't help but sigh sadly, "Is Wei Kang's father here?"

"I'm here." Lin Xuan seemed oblivious to everything, but he noticed that Ji Yueyao's expression wasn't very pleasant.

"I'm going to see him." I'll tell him about Wei Kang's current situation.

Ji Yueyao never intended to hide it from the beginning, because this kind of thing... would be found out sooner or later.

Ji Yueyao sat on the sofa in the living room, looking at Wei Jing and Lin Xuan, who were both shocked, and remained silent. She had already told them everything she knew in detail, but looking at the two people in front of her, she felt no relief at all; instead, her heart felt even heavier.

"How is this possible? Where is Wei Kang now!" Lin Xuan stood up, not even realizing that his tongue was trembling. Was he kidding? He left full of energy and came back paralyzed?!

"The medical department of the living quarters."

Upon learning where Wei Kang was, Lin Xuan practically jumped up and rushed outside, without even having time to put on his shoes properly.

"Wait a minute," Wei Jing suddenly said.

Lin Xuan and Ji Yueyao were both stunned. Lin Xuan looked at Wei Jing, appearing extremely excited, "Uncle, Wei Kang is already like that, what are we waiting for!"

"You mean, the person who competed against A-Kang this time was Yan Yu from the military region?" Wei Jing clenched his fists tightly, clearly suppressing something.

"Yes." Ji Yueyao nodded, not understanding why Wei Jing had to ask about this again.

Wei Jing leaned heavily back in his wheelchair, pounding his thigh with his fists. "Well done, Yan Yu!"

"Uncle, stop hitting him!" Lin Xuan saw Wei Jing hitting his thigh as if he didn't feel any pain, so he quickly got up and covered Wei Jing. "Uncle, your health is more important!"

"Body?" Wei Jing sneered, then rested his head on the back of the chair behind him, covered his eyes with his arm, and said nothing more.

Ji Yueyao clearly took Wei Jing's actions as sadness, hesitated for a moment, and said softly, "Uncle, don't be too sad. I will take good care of Wei Kang."

Although she seems unreliable no matter how you look at it.

"Ji Yueyao, what a good kid." Wei Jing took off his arm, his eyes filled with a gentle warmth as he looked at Ji Yueyao. "I know about the medical expenses at the Xiyu base. If I use my points, I can probably keep him going for a few months."

"But Uncle, your health..." From Wei Kang's previous words, it can be seen that Wei Jing also needs a lot of points, otherwise Wei Kang would not have trained in the morning and worked in the bar at night.

"I'm fine." Wei Jing smiled kindly, but Ji Yueyao felt something was off about his smile.

Bitterness, sadness, and... resolve.

“Uncle, actually, they gave me an application form for the search department captain, which I have already filled out. If nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to become the captain of the tenth squad.” Ji Yueyao thought for a moment, then stood up and said softly, “I think that after I become the captain of the search department, I can take on some high-point missions, which will also earn points for Wei Kang. So, Uncle, you can also leave your points to treat your body.”

"If you want to become the captain of the tenth squad, let me be your teammate!" Lin Xuan was moved by Ji Yueyao's words and quickly stood up to express his determination.

"Huh? So direct?" Ji Yueyao was taken aback. "That's dangerous."

"I'm not afraid of any danger for my friends! And I can protect you too." Lin Xuan clenched his fist and roared, but looking at Ji Yueyao's still childish face, he ultimately didn't say the last sentence. However, his loud voice seemed to pierce through the roof.

What else could Ji Yueyao say? She could only nod and smile, "Okay, as long as I become the captain."

"If you keep it... it will only be a burden."

Wei Jing suddenly spoke, but neither Ji Yueyao nor Lin Xuan heard him clearly. "Uncle, what did you just say?"

"It's nothing." Wei Jing smiled. "Thank you for your hard work, Ji Yueyao. Now I want to go see A-Kang."

Ji Yueyao nodded and, together with Lin Xuan, carefully pushed Wei Jing's wheelchair toward the medical station.

Wei Kang was still on the verge of death. Wei Jing held Wei Kang's hand and whispered something to him. Ji Yueyao and Lin Xuan stood outside the door watching the scene before them, feeling uneasy.

Even Lin Xuan, a seven-foot-tall man, couldn't help but have tears well up in his eyes. He raised his hand and fiercely wiped away the tears that were about to spill from the corners of his eyes. His voice was firm and powerful, "Wei Kang, I will avenge you!"

The attitude of those above him chilled him to the bone. Even though he already knew what kind of place he was in, seeing his good brothers reduced to this state because of them still made him furious.

Ji Yueyao stood to the side and patted Lin Xuan on the back to comfort her, even though her own eyes were already red.

Seeing Wei Jing's desperate and painful expression, Ji Yueyao suddenly wondered why Wei Jing looked so angry when he heard about Yan Yu.

Why?

Ji Yueyao felt a little strange, but in the end she didn't ask the question, because she soon lost interest in such things.
