"Something's not quite right?"
The three masters of the Chu Family were slightly taken aback upon hearing the bodyguard captain's words. They then asked in confusion,
"Lu Gang, what makes you feel that Ye Feng isn't quite right?"
Lu Gang was the bodyguard captain of the Chu Family and had been following the Chu Family for more than ten years, making him the most capable confidant of the family!
Especially since Lu Gang was a top-notch super first-class expert. When the state set up the Shadow Group, Lu Gang had participated in the tests but got eliminated!
However, even so, Lu Gang's formidable strength was widely acknowledged!
Now that he mentioned Ye Feng seemed off, it undoubtedly drew significant attention from the three masters of the Chu Family!
"Lu Gang, how did you come to see that Ye Feng seems a bit off?" asked Chu Boliang, the second master of the Chu Family, with a furrowed brow.
Lu Gang, facing the puzzled gazes of the three masters of the Chu Family, frowned but shook his head:
"Masters, I don't know either; it's just a gut feeling! Madman's presence used to make me feel very comfortable, but just now, when he walked past me, I felt extremely uncomfortable! It was as if a ferocious wolf was walking by!"
Hmm?
Lu Gang's words left the three masters of the Chu Family a bit perplexed!
"Alright! Alright! Don't overthink it! It's just an instinct, and it's common for instincts to be wrong!"
At this moment, Zhe Bozhong, the eldest master of the Chu Family, said to his two younger brothers and Lu Gang,
"Now that Ye Feng is here, everyone can finally be at ease! Go about your business!"
Upon hearing this, the second and third masters of the Chu Family, along with Lu Gang, all nodded and went about their respective tasks!
...
Meanwhile, in a room of the courtyard, an elderly lady lay on a bed!
The elderly lady appeared to be in her seventies or eighties, with white hair and deep wrinkles, but her spirits seemed significantly better at this moment, with a pair of cloudy old eyes flashing brightly!
In front of her, an old doctor was sitting beside the bed, taking the elderly lady's blood pressure!
After a while, the old doctor put away the blood pressure monitor, smiled, and said to the elderly lady,
"Old lady, although your blood pressure is still a bit high, there's no major issue anymore! Make sure to rest well and take your medicine on time! Once Ye Feng returns and gives you a few acupuncture sessions, you'll be rejuvenated!"
The old doctor seemed extremely familiar with the elderly lady and half-jokingly said this.
Upon hearing this, a hearty smile appeared on the kindly face of the elderly lady,
"You dead old ghost, still so improper! Although that rascal Ye Feng is superb in medical skills, my illness has reached its late stage, and the chances of a cure are not high!"
Although the elderly lady spoke these words, there was no hint of despondency in her demeanor; instead, her eyes were filled with deep anticipation:
"Sigh! My greatest hope now is for that rascal Ye Feng to come back, and by the way, bring back those pretty little wives of his for me to see! I really miss that rascal..."
Seeing the deep longing on the elderly lady's face, the old doctor beside her couldn't help but sigh!
"Yeah! Those other old buddies keep nagging about that rascal every day! I give them massages, and they say my massages are not as good as that rascal's! I give them acupuncture, and they say my technique is not as good as that rascal's! Those old farts make me so angry I feel like spitting blood every day!"
The old doctor spoke thus with a loving smile on his face:
"Once that rascal returns, this old man can finally have a good rest and won't have to listen to those old grouches' nagging anymore!"
The two old folks chatted quietly, yet their topic always revolved around that fellow!
In their eyes, it seemed as if that fellow was like their shared younger generation, full of love and expectation.
Just as the two old folks had been chatting for a while, there came a sudden knock at the room door!
Thud, thud, thud!
"Come in!" the elderly lady said casually!
As her words fell, the door was opened from the outside, and a young man slowly walked in!
Upon seeing this young man, the two elders were initially stunned, then filled with surprise and joy:
"Ye Feng! You rascal, when did you come back? Why didn't you notify us!"
The elderly lady's face was full of surprise, and upon seeing the young man in front, she seemed to have recovered from all her ailments, immediately sitting up from the bed!
Not only her, but the old doctor beside her also had a face full of joy, jokingly chiding,
"You rascal, turns out you've already come to Yanjing! This old lady was just talking about you earlier!"
Seeing the sheer joy and affection on the faces of the two elders, the young man's eyes momentarily flashed with a trace of mockery and malice, but he then adopted a warm smile,
"Grandma Chu, Grandpa Cai! I'm so sorry; I got delayed!"
After speaking, the young man directly sat by Grandma Chu's bed and then asked with concern,
"Grandma Chu, how are you feeling now? Any better?"
"Much better! Seeing you rascal makes me feel all better!"
Grandma Chu was all smiles, then swept a glance over the door, and asked in puzzlement,
"Ye Feng! Didn't I ask Minister Zhang to tell you? When you come, you must bring your little girlfriends to let me see! Where are they?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng's expression froze, his eyes flickered, and he said,
"Grandma Chu, no need to look! They didn't come! This time, I came back especially to treat your illness; in a few days, they'll come to Yanjing!"
After saying this, without waiting for Grandma Chu to say more, Ye Feng turned to Doctor Cai and said,
"Grandpa Cai, could you step out for a moment? Let me check Grandma Chu's condition!"
Hmm?
Ye Feng's words left Doctor Cai slightly taken aback!
For some reason, he now felt that Ye Feng seemed somewhat unfamiliar.
In the past, he would never have shooed him away while treating someone, instead acting haughty in front of him, always remarking on his lack of medical skill!
And now...
"Alright... alright! You go ahead and treat the old lady, I'll go have a smoke!" Having said this, Doctor Cai opened the door and walked out!
Seeing Doctor Cai being sent away by Ye Feng, Grandma Chu frowned,
"Ye Feng, why did you send old Cai away? Didn't you use to like him assisting you?"
"Hehe... Grandma Chu, that's in the past. People change, you know!"
Saying this, Ye Feng retrieved a vial of medicine from his pocket, drew it into a syringe, and then directly injected it into Grandma Chu's IV drip!
Seeing this, Grandma Chu frowned even more deeply, "Ye Feng, you haven't taken my pulse yet! Also, what is that medicine?"
Grandma Chu trusted Ye Feng tremendously at this moment, having no doubts!
However, when she suddenly noticed a long scar on Ye Feng's index finger, her face changed slightly,
"No! You're... you're not Ye Feng! Ye Feng would never have scars after getting injured! Who... who are you really!!!"
Grandma Chu was greatly alarmed; her understanding of Ye Feng was like that of her own grandson. Particularly, after Ye Feng got injured, his wounds would heal rapidly, leaving no scars, something she was very clear about!
And as for the 'Ye Feng' before her, the scar between his fingers was evidently quite old, impossible for it to be Ye Feng!
'Ye Feng' was momentarily stunned upon hearing Grandma Chu's words, and then displayed a surprised smile:
"Hehe... it's really surprising that you could tell!"
While saying this, 'Ye Feng' grinned maliciously at the corners of his mouth:
"But, it's too late! I just injected a potent poison into your drip, and within five minutes, you're doomed! Hehe... and Ye Feng will take the fall! Haha... it'll be him taking the blame!!!"
