The Rise of a Special Forces Soldier Abandoned by a Wealthy Family

Inside the command center, silence hung heavy like lead, making it hard for everyone to breathe.

Baroque's question remained unanswered, hanging in the air.

A silent silence.

The Poison Doctor's Anxiety.

Ye Feng's head was bowed, Xiao Ya's fingers were clenched tightly, and Tie Zhu's fist was clenched tightly—

Everyone is waiting, waiting for someone to break the deadlock.

Zeng Sheng's voice broke the silence.

He looked at the poison doctor, his voice steady yet tinged with urgency:

"Dr. Xue, must Xiaolong's later treatment and rehabilitation take place at the Hellfire Citadel?"

All eyes turned to the Poison Doctor at the same time.

Xue Yan thought for a moment.

He tapped his fingers lightly twice on the table.

His brows furrowed slightly, as if he were weighing the pros and cons.

After a moment, he spoke:

"It's definitely not good for Xiaolong to stay at the Hellfire Base for a long time."

"This is not a place for recuperation and recovery—"

"After all, this place is full of mercenaries, and they are all rough and violent."

"Xiao Long needs someone to nurse and take good care of him."

"It's definitely not appropriate to let these mercenaries take care of it."

Zeng Sheng's eyes lit up slightly, his voice filled with barely suppressed hope:

"Then... can Little Dragon return to the Dragon Kingdom for treatment and rehabilitation?"

Xue Yan nodded:

"Theoretically, returning to the Dragon Kingdom is the best option for Little Dragon."

He paused, his gaze turning serious:

"However—General Zeng, at present, Xiaolong's treatment can only be led by me personally."

"Because no one knows Xiaolong's physical indicators better than me."

"At the same time, I started culturing his blood several years ago."

"I am also the most familiar with all the research and development results and parameters."

It's not that I don't trust your country's medical capabilities—

"This is a medical topic, and I've been researching it for several years."

"If your domestic medical team were to conduct further research, it would definitely be too late."

His finger tapped the tabletop:

"Therefore, if Xiaolong returns to the Dragon Kingdom, I must personally accompany him."

"And General Zeng, you must take my identity into account."

"Twenty years ago, many countries were already keeping an eye on me."

"Then, my identity must never be revealed; it must be top secret."

He turned around and pointed to the transparent glass container—

The liquid inside shimmered with a faint blue light under the lamp:

"More importantly, the blood inside this glass container—"

This is the most crucial aspect of treating Xiaolong.

"General Zeng must be transported to the Dragon Kingdom intact."

"And you must arrange for me an absolutely secluded medical room and research lab, with top-of-the-line facilities."

"Can General Zeng do what I'm saying?"

"able!"

Zeng Sheng answered immediately without hesitation.

His voice was firm and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.

He stood up, placed his hands on the table, leaned forward, and looked directly at Xue Yan:

"Dr. Xue can rest assured."

"If Xiaolong can return to the Dragon Kingdom, and Dr. Xue can go there in person—"

"That would be perfect."

"Dr. Xue is a benefactor to our Dragon Kingdom military and the Zeng family."

"We will definitely treat everything you just said with the highest standards and requirements."

Yan Ruge continued, her voice still somewhat weak, but every word was clear and strong:

"Dr. Xue!"

"Our Longyu Group has its own medical research laboratory—"

"All the equipment inside is the most advanced in the world."

"Dr. Xue, please provide a list and standard parameters, and I will arrange it immediately."

"At the same time, all the researchers and medical staff in the laboratory will follow your orders."

"We also screen their identities, focusing on military personnel."

"Dr. Xue can rest assured about that."

Xue Yan nodded, his tone decisive: "Okay! I'll arrange it right away."

Zeng Sheng hesitated for a moment, then continued, somewhat reluctantly:

"Um... Dr. Xue—"

"Should we place Xiaolong in a regular unit for his later treatment and rehabilitation?"

"After all, Xiaolong will need to undergo rehabilitation training later on!"

"And the atmosphere and facilities in regular troops are comprehensive!"

"The relevant confidentiality mechanisms are also very comprehensive."

Xue Yan thought for a moment, looked at Zeng Sheng, and nodded:

"Theoretically, there's no problem."

"As long as the training intensity is well controlled and the relevant medical staff are adequately staffed—"

"The military is definitely the best option."

Before the words were even finished—"No! Absolutely not!"

He Jing suddenly stood up.

Her voice was trembling with tears, yet unusually firm—

Like a lioness protecting her cubs, she is both excited and assertive.

Her hands were on the table, and her body was leaning slightly forward!

She looked at Zeng Sheng with teary eyes, her lips trembling.

"Have you ever thought about Xiaolong's feelings?"

"Has he received fatherly love or motherly love since he was a child?"

"Don't you know how much torment and despair he suffered?"

Her voice grew louder and louder, tears welling up in her eyes and sliding down her cheeks:

"I know what you're thinking—you want to put Xiaolong in the regular army."

"Then, after he recovers, he will continue to serve in the military and fight for the country."

"The old man would also make this arrangement, and the Imperial Household Agency and the Supreme General Staff share this idea."

"I, He Jing, am just an ordinary housewife. I cannot stop you, nor can I stop you."

"I cannot change the Zeng family's ancestral precepts."

"Xiaolong might make the same choice."

Her voice suddenly lowered—

With a sob in her voice, she conveyed the deepest pain of a mother:

"But... I am a mother."

"She is Xiaolong's biological mother."

"I don't care what happens to Xiaolong after he recovers."

"But he is a patient now, my Long'er."

"As his mother, I have the right and the obligation to make choices for him."

She wiped away her tears and straightened her back:

"He absolutely cannot go to the army now."

"There are many suitable places in China for treatment and rehabilitation."

"I will personally choose the best one for Long'er then."

"I want to be a good mother and make up for all the years I've wronged Long'er."

"I will take care of him personally—I want to give him the best recuperation environment and the best living environment."

"Let him be an ordinary person during his recovery, and be my son, He Jing's son."

"Let Long'er enjoy the life he deserves, the lifestyle an ordinary person should have."

The meeting room was completely silent.

A hint of embarrassment appeared on the faces of Baroque, Silence, and Xue Yan.

When Zeng Linglong was a child, the three of them were indeed too ruthless.

Indeed, Zeng Linglong never experienced a single moment of the life that a normal person should enjoy.

At that moment, He Jing's words were like needles piercing their hearts.

Zeng Sheng was also stunned.

He looked at his wife.

Looking at the tears and determination in her eyes.

Seeing how she stood up for her son.

He suddenly realized that he had wronged his son far too much from childhood to adulthood.

My son is still a patient, so it's time for him to enjoy the life he deserves.

He took a deep breath and said in an embarrassed tone:

"Xiaojing, so tell me, where should we put Xiaolong?"

He Jing's tone left no room for argument:

"It can be placed anywhere, as long as it's not in the military."

"I have to take care of him myself."

"He can live whatever kind of life he wants—"

"Even if I'm a spendthrift or a spoiled brat, it's fine."

At this point, she suddenly turned around and pointed at Yan Rugo and Anna.

The two girls were stunned for a moment, and their faces turned red instantly.

He Jing looked at Zeng Sheng, a slight smile playing on her lips:

"Both of them are good girls, and they both love Xiaolong deeply."

"You can ask them for their opinions and see what they say."

All eyes turned to Yan Rugo and Anna at the same time.

The two girls lowered their heads, their faces as red as ripe apples.

The atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly became subtle.

He Jing's voice softened:

"Ruge, Anna, you two don't need to feel embarrassed."

"As Xiaolong said before, he knows about the deep feelings you two have for him."

"In that moment of despair—"

"I also said that I could never repay the deep affection between you two in this lifetime."

"Now Xiaolong has a full chance to be cured and to repay the deep affection between you two."

"I don't care what choices Xiaolong and you make later, or how you treat your relationship—"

"I, He Jing, have already accepted you two as good children."

Her gaze deepened:

"Would you two like to see Xiaolong still in the army right now?"

"Don't you want to spend more time with Xiaolong during his recovery?"
