Lin Bai knew that the old man was on guard against him again, but he did not feel guilty, he said bluntly, âYou are still patriotic at your age. When you were young, you would definitely take the lead and fight against the invaders. And everyone knew the conditions at that time. Werenât you risking your life to resist?â
The old man sighed and nodded, âIsnât that right? At that time... sigh...â
Lin Bai continued, âMoreover, when I took your pulse previously, I also vaguely felt that there were some parts of your blood circulation stagnating, as if it was blocked by something. Combined with your age, I could roughly guess what that thing was. â...â
The old man nodded. There was nothing wrong with Lin Baiâs explanation, but..
The old man looked at Lin Bai with puzzlement and asked, âAt your age, you already have such competent medical skills. This is not something that your familyâs financial resources and connections can achieve.â
The old man did not hide anything and said, âAfter I found out that you and Jinmo were dating, I also investigated you. Your change only occurred after you dated Jinmo, and before that...â
The old man considered his words and said, âOnly that degree of education and your face were acceptable.â
Lin Bai smiled bitterly. The old manâs eyes were indeed sharp, and the change in him really made it impossible for people not to be suspicious.
Thinking of the app on the phone, it was obvious that this kind of thing could not be revealed to others, so Lin Bai sighed and said, âSo Jinmo?is my lucky star.â
When the old man heard Lin Baiâs sincere tone, his eyes were filled with a smile, then he heard Lin Bai continue, âAfter I met , I had Jinmoone fortuitous encounter after another in my life, and what made me even happier was that my fortuitous encounter helped a lot of people.â
The old man thought about the information he had about Lin Bai, nodded slightly, and waited for Lin Bai to finish speaking.
Lin Bai pursed his lips and said, âThere are some things that others wonât believe, and I canât say them either.â
âBut I can guarantee that everything Iâve done will not put Guo Jia in danger. I can even guarantee that as long as those potentially dangerous people dare to appear in front of me, Iâll make sure they never come back!â
The old manâs eyes darkened.
If Lin Baiâs actions over the years were magnified, he had indeed given Guo Jia a lot of help. Moreover, looking at his actions over the past few years, there were indeed signs that he would go wherever the danger was.
The old manâs eyelids twitched.
This wonât do!
If this kid really did this, his granddaughter wouldnât become a widow one day, right?
Thinking about Yu Jinmoâs character, the old man was even sure that if something happened to Lin Bai, Yu Jinmo would definitely not look for anyone else!
Lin Bai quietly observed the old manâs expression. He knew that the old man was already on the verge of losing his guard against him, but why was the old man suddenly angry?
Lin Bai thought for a moment and was about to continue speaking when he heard the old man say in a sullen tone, âLet the dangerous person come and never come back?â
Lin Bai nodded and said, âOf course.â
âBullsh*t! !âThe old man slammed the chair and scolded angrily, âWho do you think you are ? But if you have some ability, will you have to charge into the battle ? Who doesnât know how to be a good person ? You think those potential enemies are pushovers that you can bully?â
âHave you ever thought, if something happens to you, what will happen to your family? What will happen to Jinmo?â
After being scolded by the old man, Lin Bai rubbed his nose embarrassedly, his recent behavior was indeed a little âOstentatious.â Ordinary people might not be able to see it, but people with abilities like the old man and the others would definitely be able to trace it back to him.
After realizing this, Lin Bai said to the old man with gratitude on his face, âGrandpa, youâre right. Iâve learned my lesson. Iâll pay attention to these things in the future.â
The old man heard Lin Baiâs sincere words and only then did he nod in satisfaction and say, âYour recent behavior has indeed been a little high-profile, but you canât hide it all of a sudden. This will make the people in the dark even more suspicious of your actions. Although our family isnât very capable, we can still help you clean up your retreat path.â. â...â
âIf you discover anything in the future, itâs best to inform us in advance.â
âThe strength of one person is ultimately inferior to the strength of a group of people.â
âIsnât that right, Lin Bai?â
Lin Bai replied that he knew, and then he asked, âThen your body?â
The old man smiled and said, âKid, youâve already said so much. Why would this old man disagree?â
âMoreover, youâre doing this to make this old manâs life more comfortable. Iâm not some masochist, so of course Iâll agree.â
The old man let out a long breath and reached out to hold Lin Baiâs hand. He looked at Lin Bai seriously and said, âIâll leave it to you from now on.â
Lin Bai was shocked.
The old manâs serious eyes seemed to be mixed with a lot of entrustments.
This sentence âIâll leave it to youâ didnât just mean the old manâs body, but also the entire Yu family and even Guo Jia.
After getting the app to change the future, this was the first time Lin Bai had received such an entrustment in reality. This made Lin Bai suddenly realize that his previous actions were still too small.
Lin Bai, who was deep in thought, did not ignore the look of anticipation in the old manâs eyes. He quickly nodded and said, âGrandpa, donât worry. I will definitely do my best!â
Lin Bai added at the end, âWhile ensuring your own safety!â
The old man smiled in relief.
Todayâs matter had taken a lot of effort on his mind. He was also old, and fatigue always came quickly.
He slowly closed his eyes and said, âSend me back to my bedroom.â
The wheelchair made a slight rolling sound as it was being pushed. After the old man lay down on the bed and fell asleep, Lin Bai gently closed the door and walked out.
Downstairs, Aunt Zhang stood at the stairway with a nervous expression. When she saw Lin Bai coming down, she hurriedly asked, âHow is Old Master now?â
When she found out that the medicinal meal she made had almost killed the old man, Aunt Zhang couldnât stop blaming herself. She hated herself for not discovering that the medicinal properties were conflicting, and hated herself for knowing that the old man was sick, moreover, what she made was the old manâs food. She didnât even think about looking for a medicinal book or something to find out which medicines would be conflicting.
Looking at Aunt Zhangâs apologetic and self-blaming expression, lin Bai comforted her, âAunt Zhang, donât blame yourself too much. Itâs Qin Weikang whoâs too much. His medical skills are inherited from Old Master, but he has the intention to harm others. Usually, everyone trusts him too much.â
âThatâs how I let Old Master down even more!âAunt Zhang said with a pained heart, âYou canât be too careful without these words. I actually forgot about it!â
Aunt Zhangâs appearance once again reminded me of how Qin Weikang swallowed poison before the old man died. He had received the old manâs favor, and the old man had even taught him everything, but in the end, he still had the expression that everyone was ungrateful to him.
As expected, people who were born to rebel couldnât be saved no matter what.
Lin Bai comforted Aunt Zhang again for a while, and when he returned to his room, he received a call from Yu Jinmo.
âLin Bai, I saw you on the news!â
