After Mad Dragon was released from prison, I shocked the world!

"……Hello?"

Lin Li was taken aback, looked at Yuan Zhirun, and asked in confusion, "What do you mean by this, Young Master Yuan?"

Why is it so formal when it's their first meeting?

"I know that Mr. Lin rescued more than fifty hostages all by himself, surrounded by dozens of guns."

Yuan Zhirun lowered his hand and said sincerely, "I have read the police's internal report. Your tactical skills and individual combat capabilities are at the level of a top soldier, even in our special forces."

Lin Li raised an eyebrow, surprised that this person was actually from the special forces.

"Mr. Lin, Zhirun is a proud and arrogant boy who rarely submits to others."

Yuan Tingze pulled up a chair and sat down, looking at Lin Li. Suddenly, he said seriously, "Besides visiting, I have another request to make."

"What unreasonable request?"

"I'd like to invite you to join 'Black Wolf'."

Yuan Tingze extended an olive branch, saying, "With your skills and abilities, it's a waste of your talents to stay in a small place like Jiangcheng."

"If you agree, I'll handle the special recruitment procedures. You'll start with the rank of major and directly serve as the chief instructor of the special operations team."

The rank of major!

Special Forces Chief Instructor!

For ordinary people, this is practically an opportunity to rise to the top overnight.

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Yuan."

Lin Li, however, had no such intention and refused decisively, saying, "But I'm used to being undisciplined and can't stand the discipline of the military."

"Besides, I still have a lot of personal matters to take care of in Jiangcheng, so I don't want to leave for the time being."

A hint of disappointment flashed in Yuan Tingze's eyes, but he also knew that an extraordinary person like Lin Li was indeed difficult to be bound by the system.

"Since Mr. Lin has no opinion, I will not force him."

After the two finished speaking, Chai Yunyan, who had been standing to the side, suddenly stepped forward and bowed to Lin Li on the hospital bed.

Lin Li didn't say anything; he knew what the woman wanted to say.

"Mr. Lin..."

Chai Yunyan's voice trembled with tears, "I was blind before and offended you. I apologize, I'm so sorry!"

"Please, I beg you, save my daughter!"

"If you can save her, I'm willing to do anything for you, even be your slave!"

This is a mother's most humble plea.

No one spoke in the ward. Yuan Tingze looked at his wife's humble appearance, and his eyes reddened.

He took a deep breath and gave Lin Li a very solemn, standard military salute.

"Mr. Lin, our Yuan family was arrogant and rude before, and we misunderstood and offended you in many ways."

Yuan Tingze looked at Lin Li with a serious expression: "On behalf of the Yuan family, I sincerely apologize to you."

"Rongrong is our only daughter. She has been bedridden for three years. We have tried every method and consulted all the famous doctors, but we have lost all hope."

"Mr. Lin, please, for the sake of a father and mother, lend a helping hand."

"No matter the outcome, the Yuan family owes you a huge favor."

Looking at the parents who had set aside their personal dignity, Lin Li thought of his own deceased biological parents.

Pity the parents of the world.

Although Chai Yunyan was indeed somewhat aggressive before, even investigating his privacy, it was all out of concern for protecting her daughter.

Lin Li was never a petty person.

"You two don't need to do that."

He smiled slightly, then said seriously, "I accept the apology. As for your daughter..."

"I am a doctor, and it is my duty to treat and save lives. I will do my best."

"However, let me make this clear from the start."

Lin Li looked at Chai Yunyan, whose face was full of hope, and said, "Although I am indeed proficient in ancient medicine, I cannot guarantee 100% success."

All I can say is that I will do my best.

"That's enough!"

Upon hearing this promise, Chai Yunyan nodded quickly: "As long as Mr. Lin is willing to help, it will be a great blessing for Rongrong!"

Yuan Tingze was also visibly excited and promised, "Mr. Lin, I will never thank you enough."

"From now on, in Jiangcheng, and even throughout the entire Yizhou region, the Yuan family will never refuse your needs!"

After seeing off the Yuan family, who were expressing their deepest gratitude, Lin Li was about to take a sip of water to moisten his throat when the ward door was pushed open again.

"Master!"

A petite figure rushed in, her voice trembling with tears, and threw herself into Lin Li's arms.

"Ouch! Gently! Gently! You're trying to murder your teacher!"

Lin Li winced and cried out in pain from the impact to his wound.

It was Mingxi who rushed in.

The girl's eyes were red and swollen, and she was clinging tightly to Lin Li's waist, wiping her tears and snot all over Lin Li's hospital gown.

"Master, you scared me to death! Waaaaah..."

Mingxi cried, her face streaked with tears. "I heard from my dad that you were shot many times and bled a lot... I thought I would never see you again..."

"Alright, alright, stop cursing me."

Lin Li patted her back helplessly, "I'm perfectly fine, aren't I?"

"Cough cough."

A soft cough came from the doorway.

Fang Wanqing walked in carrying a thermos lunchbox.

"Wanqing, you've arrived."

Lin Li felt inexplicably embarrassed and quickly pulled Ming Qian away from his arms.

"Yes, I specially made some fish soup for you, it's good for healing your wound."

Fang Wanqing walked to the bedside and naturally helped Lin Li tidy up his pillow. She then opened the lunchbox, and a rich, fresh aroma immediately filled the ward.

"Sister Wanqing is so thoughtful."

Mingxi wiped away her tears and stood to the side, feeling a little embarrassed.

Just then, Lei Xiangqing walked in with a furious expression. She was wearing a red trench coat today and was still as beautiful and charming as ever.

"I'm so angry! I'm so angry!"

She started stomping her feet as soon as she entered the room and threw her bag onto the sofa.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Li asked with a smile, "Who made our Miss Lei angry?"

"It's all because of Bai Nian'an!"

Lei Xiangqing glared at the womanizing scoundrel, "You fatso, just because you're a doctor and your apprentice, you insist that tonight is a special observation period, and only one person can stay to take care of you, and that they must have professional medical knowledge."

"She'd already set the schedule; tonight's on her! She practically sent me back!"

Lei Xiangqing grew angrier the more she thought about it. "She's just using her position for personal gain! She wants to have you all to herself!"

They've known each other for so many years, how could she not see through Bai Nian'an's intentions!

Lin Li was speechless, wondering what all this was about.

Fang Wanqing smiled, ladled out a bowl of soup, blew on it to cool it down, and said, "Xiang Qing, Dr. Bai is also thinking about Lin Li's health."

"After all, she's a professional. If there's any emergency at night, she can handle it."

"Hmph, I think she just wants to take advantage of her proximity."

Lei Xiangqing pursed her lips, but didn't say anything more, after all, Lin Li's health was the most important thing.

And to be honest, she wasn't really angry; she was just unhappy about being assigned tasks.

Lei Xiangqing moved closer to the bedside, looked at the soup in Fang Wanqing's hand, and deliberately teased, "Oh, Miss Fang is really a virtuous wife and loving mother. This soup smells so good."
