Romantic Medical Immortal

As he entered the hospital room, a cold voice suddenly echoed in Gong Jian’s mind: "Gong Jian, you’ve done too much evil, you’ll face retribution sooner or later. You’re destined to die without descendants in this life."

Back then, he dismissed it as the other person’s impotent rage, but now a chill surged from his feet throughout his entire body. His face alternated between green and white, and his hands trembled slightly.

Could it be... it’s really coming true?

He had done so many bad things, harmed so many people, and now retribution had finally arrived, falling upon his only son.

"Husband, say something! What will happen to Xiaoyu in the future?"

Yan Lizhu raised her head, her face full of anguish as she looked at him.

Gong Jian took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down, and said in a deep voice, "Get him admitted first, let the doctors treat him well, and we’ll discuss other matters later."

"Admit him? Admit for what! Xiaoyu is not sick! He just needs rest! We can’t trust those quacks, let’s check at another hospital!"

Yan Lizhu screamed hysterically.

"Shut up! Aren’t you ashamed enough?"

Gong Jian couldn’t hold it in any longer and slapped Yan Lizhu hard across the face.

Slap!

The sharp sound of the slap echoed in the hospital room, and Yan Lizhu staggered, looking at Gong Jian in disbelief.

"You... how dare you hit me?"

"Xiaoyu ended up like this because you spoiled him! Don’t you deserve to be hit?"

Gong Jian gritted his teeth, his eyes full of anger.

Yan Lizhu covered her burning cheek, opened her mouth to lash out, but when she saw Gong Jian’s cold eyes, she swallowed her words in fear.

She knew her husband too well. Usually gentle and refined, once truly angry, he could do anything.

This was the first time in so many years of marriage that he had hit her, and now was definitely not the time to argue with him.

"Dad, Mom, stop arguing."

Just then, Gong Lin entered the room quickly after completing the admission procedures.

Seeing Gong Yu, who was about to faint from crying, Gong Lin frowned slightly and spoke softly, "Xiaoyu, don’t cry yet, things haven’t reached that point. With such advanced medicine today, there will always be a way."

"Get lost! I don’t want to see you. I don’t need your fake kindness. Now that I’ve become a cripple, you must be very happy!"

Gong Yu shouted angrily, raising his hand to push Gong Lin away, his eyes full of ferocity.

"What nonsense are you saying? How could I be happy? I’m just telling you crying won’t solve any problem. We have to find a way to cure your illness."

"Easy for you to say. The doctors said there’s no hope at all. Can you cure me?"

Gong Yu laughed coldly, feeling both angry and terrified. He had always been less capable than Gong Lin, and now that he was crippled, his father would definitely groom Gong Lin as the successor. After all, the children Gong Lin gives birth to also carry the Gong Family’s blood.

"I’ve heard that someone in the Kong Family is very skilled in medicine. Previously, when so many people were poisoned at the Kong Family hotel, he was the one who cured them. And recently, he developed the Cooling Scar Cream and Fulan Blood Replenishing Medicine, both with excellent effects. I think his medical skills must be better than these doctors. Why not invite him to take a look?"

"Are you talking about Yang Cheng?"

Gong Yu paused, then gritted his teeth, "That bastard! How could he possibly help me!"

Gong Lin looked puzzled and asked, "Didn’t he treat you before? Do you have some grudge?"

"I went to a bar for a drink some time ago, and he beat me up. Maybe he’s the one who set me up this time. He’s worried I’ll retaliate, so he struck first!"

Gong Yu shouted angrily.

"I don’t think it’s him. Even if it is, we have to pretend we don’t know. Cure your illness first, and once you’re recovered, we can confront him. I hear Yang Cheng’s medical skills are quite high. If we can get him to help, there might still be hope."

Upon hearing this, Gong Jian was also persuaded, slowly saying, "I’ll have someone invite Yang Cheng."

"Dad! Are you crazy! If you invite him, it’s like letting him laugh at me!"

Gong Yu shouted excitedly. He was already humiliated by being beaten up by Yang Cheng, and now if the other party knew he’d become a cripple, he could only imagine how he’d be ridiculed.

"Shut up! Do you still have the face to talk?"

Gong Jian shot him a glare and turned to instruct the secretary, "Go invite Yang Cheng, tell him I’m inviting him to my house as a guest to discuss cooperation, and remember, don’t mention Xiaoyu’s illness yet."

"Yes."

The secretary responded and turned to leave.

...

Kong Family Villa.

Yang Cheng was discussing recent business developments with Kong Lingwen in the study when the phone suddenly rang.

He glanced at the caller ID, which was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello?"

"Is this Mr. Yang Cheng? I am the secretary of Mr. Gong Jian, the chairman of Gong Group. Chairman Gong would like to invite you to the Gong Family as a guest and discuss cooperation. Are you available today?"

As soon as the call connected, a respectful male voice came from the other end.

Yang Cheng raised an eyebrow and exchanged a look with Kong Lingwen, both of their expressions turning somewhat unpleasant.

Gong Jian inviting him to the Gong Family?

The sun must be rising in the west!

After a moment of silence, Yang Cheng finally spoke, "I’m free. What time?"

"You can come right now. I’ll send someone to pick you up."

"No need, I’ll go over myself."

"Alright, we’ll be expecting you, Mr. Yang."

After hanging up, Kong Lingwen frowned and said, "How could Gong Jian possibly want to discuss cooperation with you? Maybe he’s already suspicious of you, trying to lure you over on purpose?"

"Who knows! Since he invited me, not going would be disrespectful."

"No, you can’t go. Who knows what he’s up to, it could be walking into a trap."

Kong Lingwen had a bad premonition and tightly held onto Yang Cheng’s hand.

"Whatever he’s up to, I’ll just find out when I get there."

Yang Cheng wasn’t afraid. With the Sun and Moon Golden Wheel and Snake Shedding Skill in his hands, even if the Gong Family set up a trap, he was confident he could get out unharmed.

"Then I’ll go with you. I can’t let you take the risk alone."

Kong Lingwen immediately said, feeling it would be heartless not to accompany him as he was involved with the Gong Family because of her.

Yang Cheng shook his head, his expression serious, "Gong Jian is a cunning person. If you go, you might give something away. If he really suspects me, he could just send someone to kill me directly. There’s no need to concoct an elaborate trap."

"But..."

"No buts."

Yang Cheng pulled her into his embrace, saying softly, "Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. Wait for me to come back, I’ll still be with you tonight."

Hearing this, Kong Lingwen blushed slightly, leaning against his chest and feeling the warmth, her anxiety slightly eased.

"Then promise me you’ll come back safely."

"I promise you."

Yang Cheng lowered his head and pressed a kiss on her forehead.

An hour later, he drove to the entrance of the Gong Family villa.
