Chapter 298 No Guarantee

Fang Yan, who didn’t know these two people, turned around to look at Murong Ye. Murong Ye was looking back at Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu blankly.

Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu were so happy that they were stunned. They were just staring at those two people.

Murong Ye couldn’t help pushing Gong Yu’s arm. He was puzzled as he asked, “Gong Yu, do you and Xiao Xi know these two people?”

It took Gong Yu and Murong Yunxi a few seconds to react. Then, Gong Yu shouted excitedly, “Master! Why are you here?”

Kuang Youzhi smiled blandly. “Well, I found your company. The people of your company told me you were here.”

Murong Ye saw that they knew each other and let them in. Fang Yan was ready to leave. When he saw they had visitors, he formally bade them goodbye and left.

Kuang Youzhi and Baili Ziyi were invited inside by the other three and sat down on the sofa.

Gong Yu took out two clean cups and poured tea for Kuang Youzhi and Baili Ziyi. “Master, where have you been all this time?”

When Gong Yu and Murong Yunxi had come back to this world, they had taken Kuang Youzhi and Baili Ziyi with them. After arriving, they had realized that Kuang Youzhi and Baili Ziyi were lost. At the time, they hadn’t known what had happened, so they’d thought that Kuang Youzhi and Baili Ziyi maybe hadn’t succeeded and had remained in the country of Mu Xia. Now, they were surprised to see them here and were curious about what had happened after they’d arrived in this world.

In fact, after Kuang Youzhi and Baili Ziyi had come here, they didn’t know why they had been separated from Gong Yu and Murong Yunxi either. Kuang Youzhi had left this world for decades, so everything had changed dramatically. He hadn’t been able to adapt to the changes and hadn’t known where he was. Baili Ziyi had certainly been more confused about everything here.

When Gong Yu and Murong Yunxi had arrived, neither of them had expected that the four of them would be separated. Thus, they hadn’t left any contact information. These days, Kuang Youzhi and Baili Ziyi made a living as doctors and earned just enough money to feed themselves. Because Kuang Youzhi didn’t have a medical license, few people would consider him a real doctor.

Once, Kuang Youzhi had accidently seen Gong Yu and Murong Yunxi’s movie and had asked around about Gong Yu. After Gong Yu had retired from acting, his whereabouts had remained a secret. The people who knew his latest news were even fewer.

Kuang Youzhi had tried his best to make some money as a doctor before he’d begun to approach City A. At least he had known he could find one person there: his junior fellow apprentice Xu Qianru. After arriving in City A, Kuang Youzhi had discovered that it was not easy to find him. After all, Xu Qianru had Parkinson’s syndrome, so he hadn’t practiced medicine for many years. He had actually retired.

Kuang Youzhi hadn’t found Xu Qianru, but he had unexpectedly discovered the news about Gong Yu. Seventh Brother had made a promoting brochure for the company. There was an introduction about Gong Yu as a partner in it. Through this brochure, Kuang Youzhi had found Gong Yu and Seventh Brother’s company. Then, he had finally gotten Gong Yu’s contact information and found this place.

Kuang Youzhi briefly told them what they had been doing in the past few months, Murong Ye knew he was the master Gong Yu had once mentioned and the man who had cured Murong Yunxi. His heart was instantly filled with gratitude for Kuang Youzhi.

Murong Yunxi didn’t pay attention to Kuang Youzhi and Baili Ziyi’s story, as her mind was on Murong Qingtian.

Her bright eyes were fixed on Kuang Youzhi as she said in excitement, “Master, I want to ask you for a favor.”

Kuang Youzhi looked at Murong Yunxi and saw the importance of the issue in her eyes. “Oh? What’s the matter?”

“My father is in a bad state now. I wanted to ask you to see if you can cure him.” Murong Yunxi crossed her hands and put her fingertips against her chin. Her big eyes were shining with hope. Upon seeing her like this, Kuang Youzhi couldn’t bear to refuse. He didn’t want to say no to her in the first place.

“Okay! So tell me, what’s your father’s current condition? Is he sick?” Kuang Youzhi took this seriously at once and asked questions as if he was talking to a patient.

“My father has been shot. The bullet was removed during the operation, but the doctor said that he is old and has lost a lot of blood. The position of the wound is also unusual. He has been unconscious so far, and we have received a critical illness notification twice.”

Kuang Youzhi was shocked to hear this. He had never thought it would be a gunshot wound! According to his perception of this world, he knew that the law prohibited the use of guns. A gunshot wound meant that this had not been a simple incident.

Kuang Youzhi was not a meddler. Thus, he hid his doubts and continued to ask about the patient’s condition. He briefly asked Murong Yunxi a few questions and then proposed to take a look at Murong Qingtian in the ward.

Murong Ye led Kuang Youzhi to Murong Qiangtian’s ward and also helped Kuang Youzhi find the necessary equipment for the examination. Then, Murong Ye and Murong Yunxi entered the ward. They were nervous as they were standing behind and watching Kuang Youzhi performing the examination.

Sometimes, people were very strange. At first, they waited for a miracle by preserving a ray of hope, but they also prepared for the worst in their hearts. Once that ray of hope turned up, they could no longer accept the worst outcome.

At the moment, Murong Yunxi and Murong Ye were holding that exact belief. They placed all their hopes on Kuang Youzhi.

After a check-up, Kuang Youzhi’s face became gloomy. When the three of them left the ward, Murong Yunxi’s nervous heart was about to jump out of her throat. She stared at him, waiting for what he would say next.

Kuang Youzhi glanced at them. He seemed to have organized his words in his mind before he said, “Mr. Murong’s situation is not optimistic, as many of his organs have started to fail. I can give you no guarantee, but I can try to save him. The success ratio of this operation is not very high, so you need to be prepared.”

Upon hearing his words, Murong Yunxi and Murong Ye’s hearts went cold. They had placed all their hopes on Kuang Youzhi, yet he said he was not sure about the outcome. They couldn’t accept such an answer at the moment. They were completely desperate.

However, they could only grasp at straws and let Kuang Youzhi have a try.

When the decision was made, everything was handed over to Kuang Youzhi. Murong Qingtian was pushed into the operating room again. Thanks to the power of the Murong Family, the hospital cooperated perfectly. Everything was prepared according to Kuang Youzhi’s instructions. The director, who dared not ignore their requests, personally supervised everthing.

It seemed that the whole hospital was doing only one important thing all of a sudden: taking care of Murong Qiangtian’s treatment.

Murong Ye, Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu were still staying in the hospital. Murong Yunxi didn’t even get a chance to see Niannian, but the little girl had temporarily been entrusted in Lu Yang’s care.

The hospital had especially arranged another lounge for Baili Ziyi. Although Baili Ziyi felt awkward resting alone at first, after Gong Yu insisted, she went to get some rest in the lounge.

At the entrance of the operating room were three people: Murong Ye, Murong Yunxi and Gong Yu. The director came to check on them from time to time. When he saw that they didn’t have any special requests, he went back to his work. Every now and then, some nurses would come to ask them if they needed anything or give them some water and food.

The whole operation lasted a long time. It started in the afternoon and was over next morning.

The three of them didn’t sleep for three days, so they were all very tired. Pairs of black circles of different degrees could be seen on their faces. Murong Yunxi’s black circles were the most serious, as she was the most haggard. A layer of black stubble had also emerged on Murong Ye’s handsome face.

Gong Yu was tidy as usual, which was strange. His beard always grew very slowly, so he still had a clean face after three days. Gong Yu usually shaved only once a week. Thus, going three days without shaving hadn’t affected his image at all.

The young nurses had just brought breakfast for the three of them. Most patients’ family members didn’t receive such treatment. Someone would bring meals on time for them, and when they were thirsty, someone else would bring water. The hospital had specially prepared a family lounge for them, but unfortunately the three of them refused to rest there. All of them were very fond of this corridor.

When they saw the breakfast now, they did feel hungry. They accepted the breakfast and started to eat. No one was made of iron. Even though they had no appetite, they had to eat, especially after these days of suffering.

They ate in a hurry and waited for Murong Qingtian to come out. Their hard work finally paid off. Soon, the light in the operating room went out and Kuang You walked out of the room first.

When Kuang Youzhi came out, all three of them were in a daze. It seemed as if they didn’t recognize him. It was probably because he looked old. After such a long operation, he seemed to be five years older. He was pale and haggard, and his face looked awful.

Kuang Youzhi looked at the three of them and said, “The operation was successful. As long as he wakes up after the effect of the anesthetic wears off, he will be truly awake.”

When Kuang Youzhi finished his words, he sighed with relief and smiled slightly.

After hearing Kuang Youzhi’s words, Murong Yunxi couldn’t believe it for a while. She took Gong Yu’s hand and asked blankly, “Gong Yu, did I hear correctly? Did Master really say that the operation was successful? Am I hallucinating?”

Gong Yu took Murong Yunxi into his arms, caressed her hair, and planted a kiss on her forehead. He also smiled happily.

Meanwhile, he consoled her excitedly. “Yes, you heard right. Master did say the operation was successful!”

Murong Ye, who rarely lost it, now ecstatically pulled at Kuang Youzhi’s arms and kept repeating two words. “Thank you, thank you…”

Kuang Youzhi looked at Murong Ye. Although he was exhausted, he still forced himself to smile at him.
