Quickly, Xu Fan soon learned from Guan Shimeng which hospital the old man was recuperating in.

The old man is currently recovering in the military district's affiliated hospital. Although he's out of danger, he cannot be discharged in the short term and is being cared for by his children in rotation.

In Jinling, the old man took good care of him, and Xu Fan is filled with awe for this elder.

Upon obtaining the address, he sped all the way and soon arrived at the entrance of the military district's affiliated hospital.

Led by Guan Shimeng, he jogged all the way to the inpatient department, took the elevator, and soon reached the floor where the old man resided.

Stepping out of the elevator, he could see that on this floor, there were security checkpoints every ten steps, with soldiers on guard all around.

This level of vigilance made Xu Fan furrow his brows, guessing that the old man's injury might not be so simple.

"Dad, I'm... I'm here."

With Guan Shimeng guiding him, Xu Fan faced no obstruction along the way. Upon entering the ward, he saw Guan Shimeng's parents waiting beside the bed.

As for the old man, he was wearing an oxygen mask, lying on the bed leisurely.

Xu Fan glanced at the equipment beside the bed; judging by various indexes, it was clear the old man was indeed out of danger.

Only then did Xu Fan breathe a sigh of relief.

Immediately, Xu Fan turned his attention to Guan Shimeng's parents.

"Hello, Uncle and Aunt."

Guan Shanhai naturally remembered Xu Fan; upon hearing him greet, he waved, acknowledging him.

With his father lying on the sickbed currently, he had little mood to chat idly with Xu Fan.

This was something Xu Fan naturally understood, as he glanced at Guan Shimeng before approaching the old man.

"Boy! What are you doing?"

Xu Fan moved to the old man's side, supported his wrist for a moment, and suddenly removed the oxygen mask from his mouth.

This almost scared Guan Shanhai to death! He couldn't bother whether he'd disturb his father and directly exclaimed.

Even the soldiers standing guard outside pulled their guns and looked over at Xu Fan.

With faces full of killing intent, they were already in a state akin to confronting a great enemy!

Such tense appearances couldn't help making Xu Fan find it amusing.

He shook his head and reassured, "Alright, don't be so tense. I'm just checking the old man's injury."

"This..."

Seeing Guan Shanhai still hesitant, Guan Shimeng hurriedly spoke up for Xu Fan.

"Dad, Xu Fan cured grandpa's old illness before. Now that grandpa's condition is unstable, let's have him check grandpa again."

After saying this, Guan Shimeng anxiously glanced at the soldiers outside the door.

This look obviously worried that these guys might accidentally hurt Xu Fan.

Seeing this scene, Guan Shanhai felt slightly sour in his heart.

People say daughters are hard to keep, and this seems to be quite true.

It seems his daughter's heart has long been stolen by this boy.

"Alright, clear out!"

Worried they might accidentally hurt his father, Guan Shanhai waved his hand and directly dismissed the soldiers at the door.

After clearing them away, Guan Shanhai looked at Xu Fan seriously and said, "Brat, look all you want; if you make the old man have any mishaps, I'll definitely kill you!"

Guan Shanhai didn't care whether Xu Fan would be scared, and made it clear with fierce determination.

While helping the old man diagnose, Xu Fan muttered, "Kill me? Aren't you afraid your daughter will hate you for it?"

"You!"

Hearing Xu Fan mock him, Guan Shanhai almost jumped up in anger!

This bastard! How could he be so brazen?

Daring to provoke him like this?

He felt like he wanted to fight Xu Fan, but considering his father's wellbeing, he restrained his anger.

"Alright, it's done."

After treating the old man's injury with spiritual power, Xu Fan wiped the sweat from his forehead and picked up paper and pen from the nearby table.

After swiftly jotting down notes on paper, a prescription soon materialized.

"From now on, follow this prescription for the herbs."

"Remember, twice a day, each time the herbs must be exact, no more or less. Understand?"

Despite some suspicion, Guan Shanhai agreed earnestly to Xu Fan's words.

After all, this guy was a miracle worker who healed his father's chronic illness years prior.

Who knows, maybe he truly finds a clue in the old man's condition.

"Summon someone."

He called in the soldiers waiting outside, handed the prescription to them, and urged them to prepare the medicine quickly.

"Alright, let's step outside and talk."

Worried the old man wouldn't rest well after Xu Fan's inspection, Guan Shihai cautiously suggested everyone leave the ward together.

Guan Shanhai exchanged a look with his wife and then looked at Xu Fan.

"Boy, let's find a place to chat?"

Receiving his husband's signal, Guan Shimeng was already led away by her mother and understood what would be discussed. Xu Fan chuckled and nodded.

"Alright."

Agreeing, Xu Fan followed Guan Shanhai and soon arrived at the hospital staircase.

Given the old man's situation, the entire hospital building had been sealed off.

At the staircase, there's no worry about being overheard by anyone else.

Guan Shanhai took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and offered one to Xu Fan.

"Want one?"

Xu Fan didn't hold back and accepted the cigarette from Guan Shanhai, placing it in his mouth.

After Guan Shanhai lit a cigarette for himself, he lit Xu Fan's.

Xu Fan exhaled a puff of smoke and laughed, "Uncle Guan, you didn't bring me here just to smoke together, right?"

Clearly, he knew they brought him here to discuss the old man's injury.

Otherwise, there was no need to send Guan Shimeng away.

"Humph, you smart brat."

Guan Shanhai initially intended to remain silent, hoping to make Xu Fan nervous, but realized this kid wasn't nervous at all, instead impatiently urging him to speak.

Taking a deep drag, the cigarette in his mouth flared intensely.

After exhaling the smoke, he stubbed out the cigarette directly.

"I called you over for my father's sake, naturally."

"What do you think? Have you figured out how he got injured?"

This incident isn't just about the old man getting hurt; Guan Shanhai noticed Xu Fan inspected the old man's wound attentively while treating him.

He's curious whether Xu Fan discovered anything from the wound...
