Reborn in 85: Starting with a family split and becoming the richest man, the ungrateful wretch regre

Lu Yang comforted him, "Craniotomy is a major surgery, so it will definitely take a while."

"Don't worry, the doctor said there's a 70% chance of a full recovery after the surgery."

Chen Qifang nodded, her eyes filled with barely suppressed worry, showing how deep her feelings for Li Rongqing were.

After another hour, Li Rongqing was finally wheeled out.

Chen Qifang immediately rushed to the attending physician, but didn't know what to say.

The attending physician took off his mask and said wearily, "The surgery was a success."

Chen Qifang breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed Li Rongqing to the ward.

Lu Yang inquired about the specifics, and the attending physician replied seriously, "Although the surgery was successful, the subsequent medical expenses will not be cheap."

"The money you paid isn't enough; you need to keep paying. Hurry up and raise the money. If you delay your treatment, it will definitely leave you with long-term effects."

Lu Yang nodded quickly: "We'll gather them as soon as possible."

"As long as there are no problems with Li Rongqing's surgery and post-operative recovery, nothing else matters."

He turned to Zheng Wei and said, "Go to the payment counter on the first floor later and get the payment slip. Then go to the police station and make the Chen family pay again. They have to pay this fee."

Zheng Wei nodded; he also felt that this was a matter of course.

They beat a perfectly healthy college student so badly that his head was damaged, locked him in a cellar for a whole year, and they deserved to be dragged out and shot.

After he left, Lu Yang followed him to the ward.

Looking at Li Rongqing, whose head was wrapped in thick gauze, Chen Qifang's tears fell one after another.

Lu Yang quickly comforted him, "It's alright, don't cry."

Chen Qifang wiped away her tears and said, "I know everything is alright, but I just can't help but cry. Seeing him like this is too much for me."

Lu Yang sighed and asked his assistant, Xiao Li, to go downstairs and buy food.

After finishing their meal in the hospital room, he and Chen Qifang hurriedly returned home.

Yao Lili had already gone home. When she saw her come in, she immediately asked, "How did Li Rongqing's surgery go?"

"The surgery was successful, but the recovery will definitely take a long time and will cost a lot. Chen Qifang and the other person definitely don't have the money. I've already asked Zheng Wei to continue to go to the police and get the people in Chenjia Village to pay for it."

"No matter what, we must pay Li Rongqing's surgery fee. Although it's not a large sum for us, it's right for Village Chief Chen to pay it."

Yao Lili immediately nodded in agreement: "That's right, he deserves to be bankrupt and spend his life in jail. By the way, what about Chen Tianci? Has he come back?"

Lu Yang was taken aback and said somewhat awkwardly, "I haven't taken care of him yet, but the police here will definitely contact Shandong University, and they will definitely make him drop out of school."

"Shandong University will definitely not make too much of a fuss about this, because it would damage the university's reputation. It's certain that Chen Tianci will be sentenced, but it won't be for long."

Yao Lili said somewhat resentfully, "Chen Tianci is the real beneficiary. This guy almost took Li Rongqing's place in the future, but in the end he got the lightest sentence."

Lu Yang sighed; there was nothing he could do about it.

He could only calmly say, "I have done everything I can. As for the rest, all we can do is try our best and leave the rest to fate."

Yao Lili said in a deep voice, "I also heard something else: Lu Qing is pregnant."

Lu Yang was taken aback at first, then nodded and said, "As expected, if he wants to stay by Boss Sun's side for a long time, he must have a child."

Yao Lili frowned: "Do you think Boss Sun will marry her for the sake of this child?"

Lu Yang shook his head without hesitation: "Impossible. Boss Su is not stupid. On the contrary, he has very high standards. There is no way he would marry Lu Qing."

Yao Lili breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. As long as Boss Sun gets married in the future, Lu Qing won't be able to cause any trouble. I was really afraid that he would use Boss Sun's influence to suppress you."

Lu Yang sneered: "I just received some news a few days ago that the protector of that begging organization is Boss Sun. Boss Sun was implicated in this matter and is being watched by the provincial department. He will have to keep a low profile for the time being."

Yao Lili frowned: "Is that all? He dares to act as a protector for this kind of person, which means he may have been involved, or even shared in the spoils, and yet he was only targeted and did not receive any punishment."

Lu Yang felt quite helpless: "There's nothing we can do about it. Boss Sun has been operating in Yangcheng for many years, his foundation is solid, and his relationship with local officials is very complex. He's not so easy to bring down."

Yao Lili rubbed her temples, seemingly having a headache: "Then let's just let nature take its course."

The next afternoon after school, Lu Yang went to the hospital to visit Li Rongqing again.

He had woken up, but he was not very lucid. He looked at people blankly, and his speech was halting, but he could still communicate.

Lu Yang had a brief chat with him and learned that the Chen family didn't kill him in order to force him to tutor the Chen family's youngest son.

Most of those educated youth were proud and arrogant. Even if the people of Chenjia Village wanted them to tutor them, they wouldn't cooperate.

Village Chief Chen is very ambitious. His eldest son, Chen Tianci, failed to get into university, but at least he took Li Rongqing's place. He wants his younger son to go to university as well.

Lu Yang frowned as he listened. He couldn't help but think that this Village Chief Chen was a crazy guy, and it was a waste of his talents to make him a village chief.

He briefly explained the current status of the case to Li Rongqing: Village Chief Chen was sentenced to fifteen years, and his son was sentenced to one and a half years.

The Chen family refused to pay any more money, so Li Rongqing had to bear the medical expenses himself.

Li Rongqing is from a county in Shandong. His parents have been inquiring about his situation for years, but have never heard from him.

Lu Yang and Li Rongqing reached an agreement: after Li Rongqing returned to Shandong and settled down there, Lu Yang would help him open a branch store. He wanted to open a food and beverage bar, an electronics store, and a clothing store there.

Li Rongqing readily agreed: "I will go back and tell my family. I have family members who work in the county government, and they will do their best to help."

Lu Yang nodded: "If any of your family members are planning to work in my shop, I can accept them as long as they meet the requirements."

Both sides benefited from the arrangement, and Lu Yang was very satisfied with it. Li Rongqing and Chen Qifang also felt that Lu Yang really had something in mind for them.

The two of them were able to repay Lu Yang's kindness to some extent, and both felt much more at ease.

After the two sides finished talking, Lu Yang left the hospital and went straight to his own restaurant.

After Li Xingran finished his mission here, he asked him and Qian Jianyun to go out for dinner.

Lu Yang hadn't seen Li Xingran for only half a year, and when he saw him again, he was taken aback: "Why are you all so sloppy?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Jianyun couldn't help but burst into laughter: "That's more like a soldier! Even though you look dusty and dirty, congratulations on earning a second-class merit."
