Rebirth: He Decides to Lie Flat

Chapter 134: Chapter 131 Midnight Punishment (Second Update) Chapter 134: Chapter 131 Midnight Punishment (Second Update) Yu Zexiao rushed to the hospital in a panic, then headed straight to Yu Feng’s office on the fifth floor. He didn’t even check if there were patients inside before barging in.

“Xiaofeng…”

“Uncle, wait a moment.”

Yu Feng sent the patients and their family members from the office away before standing up to take Yu Zexiao down to the first floor.

“Let’s get a CT scan first to see the extent of its development. Uncle, try not to worry.”

“Not worried, not worried.”

Yu Feng turned and glanced at him, thinking to himself, If you’re not worried, then why are you shaking?

His uncle was the typical good-looking but brainless type, easy to fool.

He was already forty-five years old, yet he dressed like a young man—a bright red T-shirt accentuating his handsome face which was even more attractive than that of a popular movie star, blue jeans, broad shoulders, a slim waist, and long legs.

With his looks and physique, every nurse and female patient he ran into on the way down couldn’t help but blush and gaze at him with racing hearts.

It would be a waste not to be a gigolo!

No, it would be a waste not to become a movie star.

“Doctor Yu, is this your brother?”

The little nurse at the CT room glanced at Yu Zexiao and quickly lowered her head in shyness.

Yu Feng replied expressionlessly, “My uncle.”

After speaking, he turned to instruct Yu Zexiao, “Lie down.”

Yu Zexiao stepped forward, taking off his shoes and said to the nurse, “Little sister, take a careful look for your brother, ok?”

“Ah?… Oh, yes, yes, sure.”

The nurse’s face turned even redder, having forgotten the introduction Yu Feng had just made.

The CT scan was purely to fool Yu Zexiao; the real purpose was to pluck a hair from his head.

And that hair was now in the pocket of Yu Feng’s white lab coat.

Unexpectedly, the CT actually revealed something.

Because he was internal staff, the doctor in charge of the CT called Yu Feng over even before the images were developed. Pointing at the shadow on the computer screen, he said, “Doctor Yu, the shadow on your uncle’s lungs is quite large. It seems to be a nodule. For details, you should consult with Director Wu.”

Yu Feng was stunned. His offhand comment had somehow come true?

Considering the size, surgery was definitely needed.

He returned from the CT room feeling guilty and said to Yu Zexiao, “Uncle, you might need surgery.”

Yu Zexiao’s legs went weak and he nearly knelt down, but Yu Feng caught him, “It’s not a life-threatening surgery. What are you afraid of?”

“They’re going to operate on the lungs, how is that not life-threatening?”

He grabbed Yu Feng’s arm pleadingly, “Xiaofeng, you perform the surgery for me.”

Yu Feng: …

How was he supposed to remind him that he was a neurologist!

“When you have a tumor in your brain, I’ll operate.”

Yu Zexiao: …

After taking him back to the office, Yu Feng immediately ran to find Director Wu from the respiratory medicine department. After discussing, they could almost confirm it was a nodule. Even though more detailed examinations had yet to be done, experienced doctors could give a pretty accurate assessment just by looking at the images.

The current issue was whether the nodule was benign or malignant.

At the mention of this issue, Yu Feng had a sudden realization; his grandfather died of lung cancer!

….

During the fourth week of military training, Yu Ci returned.

Originally, they could have finished two weeks earlier, but right before the end, there was a problem with the experimental data, and their whole group had to work overtime to start over from scratch.

By the time they finished, it was already September 21st.

He hurriedly bought a ticket, packed his things overnight, and rushed to the airport.

Upon arriving in Beijing, he took a taxi to Beijing University under the starry sky.

Yu Heng and Mu Chenyan were both woken up by him, the two looked at him helplessly, “Xiaosi is still in military training, she’s definitely staying at the school.”

Having slept on the plane for more than a day, Yu Ci was full of energy, not feeling the slightest bit tired.

He waved his hands at Mu Chenyan and Yu Heng, “You guys go to sleep, don’t worry about me, I’m going out for a stroll… Big brother, where’s Yu Xin now?”

Yu Heng frowned, “What are you planning to do?”

Yu Ci’s face turned cold, “What am I planning to do? After what she did to Xiaosi, she has to pay a corresponding price.”

“Don’t do anything stupid, she’s not worth it!”

“Don’t worry, I know my limits, give me your car keys.”

Eventually, Yu Heng, not feeling reassured, went out with Yu Ci together.

At 2 a.m., when a person is most sleepy.

After relentless phone calls from Yu Ci, Tan Min yawned and opened the door for him, “Xiaoci, why so late…”

“So late?” Yu Ci said with a sardonic smile, “I thought Auntie was at the hospital looking after Uncle, but it turns out Auntie’s at home.”

Tan Min’s face was filled with embarrassment, “Well… I got a nurse for him, didn’t I?”

“Oh, so there’s a nurse. What about Auntie then, how often do you go to visit?”

In reality, Tan Min had only visited once in the two weeks since Yu Zexiao had been hospitalized, which was when the hospital admission was being processed. She didn’t even go when he had the operation; it was Yu Zekun who signed for everything.

She probably figured since the old patriarch of the Yu Family had lung cancer, she worried Yu Zexiao might have it too. So, she simply didn’t care any longer, thinking to herself, ‘Let it be, if he dies, I’ll inherit the assets, which is pretty good.’
“Yu Ci, your uncle’s and my issues are none of your business as a junior,” Tan Min said, knowing what she’d done wasn’t right. Without any intention of reasoning with the Yu Family, she stiffly assumed the pose of an elder, “Coming to my house in the middle of the night just for this?”

You hardly show any filial piety towards your uncle usually, now coming here to take up his cause, isn’t that ridiculous?

“Where is Yu Xin?”

Tan Min was startled, then looked at him warily, “What are you up to? To keep her from going to your place, I keep her locked in her room all day. Now she’s got nothing, and she’s jobless… Hey, Yu Ci…”

Yu Ci pushed Tan Min aside and walked in.

Their home was a large flat, close to two hundred square meters with four bedrooms and two living rooms, quite spacious.

Yu Ci kicked open the door to Yu Xin’s bedroom and then turned on the bedroom light with a snap.

Blinded by the harsh light, Yu Xin instinctively furrowed her brows. Before she could adjust, she felt a searing pain on her scalp as she was yanked by her hair off the bed.

“After making Xiaosi suffer so much, you still have the face to sleep?”

Yu Ci dragged Yu Xin by the hair into the living room. Then he turned around, picked up the half-meter-long glass fish tank from the TV stand, and doused her head and body with it.

“Ah…”

Tan Min had wanted to stop him but was startled into jumping back by Yu Ci’s move. She then looked at the expensive goldfish wiggling on the floor, murmuring with distress, “The fish didn’t provoke you…”

Yet she didn’t think to first check on her own daughter!

Looking down from his superior position at Yu Xin, who had waterweeds hanging from her head and her body covered in a disorganized mess of pebbles, Yu Ci sneered, “Look at you now, even in this state, your own mother’s first thought is about the fish, not even glancing at you. Do you know why, Yu Xin?

Because you’re inherently venomous and filthy to the core, you don’t deserve anyone’s love!”

By this time, Yu Xin was fully awake. She looked up at Yu Ci with defiance, “I don’t deserve it? Who does? Xiaosi? Too bad, she’s gone. Has she been maimed by human traffickers? Has she married an old man in some backwater village…”

Before she could finish her words, she was kicked flying by Yu Ci with a ‘bang’!
