Chapter 45 The Two Elders

| State People's Hospital.

Inpatient Department, Ward 308.

Fortunately, when Yu Jin arrived, his adoptive father was out of danger and his condition had stabilized.

"The patient was elderly and had chronic cardiovascular disease. Under the circumstances of sudden stimulation, he suffered a temporary myocardial infarction."

"Fortunately, the patient was taken to the hospital in time, preventing any irreversible consequences."

"However, as a doctor, I still recommend that the family consider whether to have coronary artery bypass surgery, which can reduce the probability of myocardial infarction to some extent..."

After speaking with Yu Jin, the doctor in the white coat left the ward.

In the ward.

Then came the sound of Old Yu muttering to himself.

"I'm not trying to be mean, Xiaofang..."

"Why did you call Xiao Jin all the way back from Jiangcheng for such a small matter..."

"Our family finally produced a top student like Xiao Jin who got into Jiang University. How can we let something like this interfere with his studies..."

Yu Limin, Yu Jin's adoptive father, has now awakened from his coma and is currently on an IV drip.

He leaned back on the hospital bed, muttering to Cao Fang, who still hadn't had time to take off her apron.

Yu Jin's adoptive mother, Cao Fang, was a traditional housewife with a rather submissive personality.

Listening to Old Yu's mutterings, he kept his head down and didn't say a word, just kept wiping away his tears, clearly he had been quite frightened earlier.

"Mom, it's okay, I'm here."

Yu Jin stepped forward, hugged his adoptive mother, and gently patted her back.

The latter sobbed softly, and Yu Jin could still smell the familiar faint smell of cooking oil emanating from her.

Twenty years.

Old Yu and Cao Fang run an old, run-down noodle shop, where they raised the two brothers, Yu Jin and Yu Chen.

Their tireless work day and night has left the elderly couple with many health problems.

Yu Jin's return to Yizhou this time was partly on the way, and partly because he wanted to use the 'Light of Purification' to cure the root cause of the two elders' illness.

after all.

If you can't even take care of your own parents, what kind of superman are you, no matter how high your rank or how many abilities you have?

Yu Jin hadn't expected that something would almost go wrong before he returned.

This made Yu Jin feel somewhat guilty.

"Little Jin..."

"I'm fine!"

"It's Friday today, don't you still have classes at school?"

"If you have classes, go back to school as soon as possible. I'm fine, I just got a little frightened and my blood pressure spiked!"

Hospital bed.

Despite his purple lips and pale face, Old Yu acted as if nothing was wrong, talking nonchalantly.

Yu Jin remained silent, simply sitting down beside the hospital bed.

He reached out and placed his hand on Old Yu's wrist.

hum-

With a thought, Yu Jin activated the 'Purifying Light' ability.

A barely perceptible halo of light seeped from Yu Jin's fingertips into Old Yu's body.

"Ok?"

Old Yu, lying on the hospital bed, suddenly froze.

"I feel like the tightness in my chest has suddenly eased."

Old Yu didn't think of Yu Jin, but instead looked up at the IV drip.

"Is IV drip really that effective?"

Ember didn't reply.

To avoid alerting the elderly couple and the doctor to anything unusual, he deliberately controlled the healing speed of the 'Purifying Light'.

Over the next day, the halo of light will slowly but thoroughly heal the two elders' physical ailments.

Before treating Old Yu, Yu Jin had also used 'Purification Light' while holding his foster mother.

call--

Seeing Old Yu's complexion gradually regain its rosy hue, Yu Jin felt a great weight lifted from his shoulders and let out a long sigh.

"So, tell me, what did you encounter in that game?"

After his illness was cured, Yu Jin's tone of voice when speaking to Old Yu returned to its previous state.

Old Yu was a little afraid of Yu Jin.

How do you know it's a game?

Old Yu opened his eyes wide and looked at Yu Jin.

"Never mind how I know."

"I won't question what you were thinking, just putting on any helmet you see. Now tell me, what did you encounter in the game?"

Yu Jin's tone was slightly serious.

Old Yu shrank his neck, glanced at Cao Fang beside the hospital bed, and then whispered:

"Well, it's nothing."

"I suddenly found myself in a desolate wasteland covered in yellow sand. Little Jin, you have no idea, the environment was so realistic!" "I've really broadened my horizons. I never imagined that technology is so advanced these days. If it weren't for the fact that it's a game, I would have thought it was like in a TV drama, that I'd been transported to another world—"

Old Yu may be old, but he has a youthful spirit.

Besides running his noodle shop, his favorite thing to do is to play chess, chat, and brag with the other old men in the neighborhood.

"Speak the key."

Ember interrupted directly.

"We've encountered a rat, a rat as big as a basketball!"

"I hadn't walked two steps when the rat suddenly pounced on my face, giving me a huge fright, and then..."

"I opened my eyes and was already in a hospital bed."

Old Yu told the truth.

"Mom, where did you put the helmet?"

Yu Jin turned to look at Cao Fang, his tone instantly becoming gentle.

"Still at home."

“When Limin fainted, I was terrified. I quickly took the helmet off his head and called 120.”

"The helmet should be on the floor right now; we haven't had time to put it away."

Cao Fang replied.

"it is good."

Yu Jin nodded and stood up.

"You two, don't worry about the noodle shop today, no, for the next few days."

"Old Yu, you should rest well in the hospital. Mom, don't worry too much."

"Neither of you should touch that helmet. I'll handle it."

"You don't need to worry about the hospital expenses this time. Just rest and relax, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Cao Fang moved her lips but did not speak; she simply looked at Old Yu.

Old Yu looked at Yu Jin, but under the latter's serious gaze, he subconsciously lowered his head, though he still muttered to himself:

"You're still a student, where would you get the money to pay for hospital fees..."

"If the noodle shop closes for a few days, those regular customers won't be happy..."

Yu Jin shook his head.

"The school just issued the scholarships for the previous academic year, totaling 20,000 yuan."

He didn't mention selling the gold; instead, he told a lie.

"what?"

The voice just fell.

Old Yu almost jumped out of his hospital bed.

Cao Fang, sitting by the hospital bed, also had a face full of joy.

"You got another scholarship?"

"Oh, Xiao Jin, you are truly my good son, my good son!"

"Hahahaha!"

What Old Yu cared about was not the '20,000 yuan', but the honor that the scholarship represented.

From the day he was adopted at the age of three, Yu Jin has always been very sensible.

From childhood to adulthood, Yu Jin's academic performance has always been among the best.

When he was admitted to Jiangnan University through the college entrance examination, Old Yu even went to great lengths to host a banquet at his noodle shop, inviting all the neighbors.

That's why.

Old Yu was satisfied with his son Yu Jin, but that's why he was also a little 'afraid' of him.

Throughout his life, he valued his reputation above all else.

And the embers were his greatest and most presentable asset in over fifty years.

"Alright, you all should rest here."

"I'll go see a doctor and ask about the specifics."

Yu Jin said something to the two elders, hugged Cao Fang again, and then walked out of the ward.

Asking a doctor about the situation is obviously a lie.

After activating their 'Light of Purification', the two elders are now in good health, if not as good as eighteen-year-old boys.

He left the ward because after dealing with his parents' affairs, he was going to take care of some personal matters.

From the moment I stepped into the hospital.

The prominent text on the panel in front of Yu Jin never disappeared—

【warn!warn! 】

You are approaching an extremely dangerous and terrifying 'infected nest'!

You have ventured deep into an extremely dangerous and terrifying 'infected lair'!

【Danger! Danger! 】

You are as weak as an ant, powerless against the massive number of infected gathered here!

Run! Run!
