It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

Although the success rate under the professional team's plan has approached 100%, the white-haired loli still seems unable to change her habit of looking at things from a pessimistic perspective.

"You don't have to wait until after the surgery to say something like that again. I'm going to spank you right now."

Xu Shi gave her a slap on the head, but she suddenly realized that she was really worried when she did that before. If she really died without a chance to return, at least she could spend the last moments of her life with the people closest to her.

"I don't believe you'd be willing to do that."

Xia Ke'an smiled and lowered his voice, "But I've really ruined your interest these past few days, Director Xu. After the operation is successful, I'll let you hit me a few times... that's fine."

"That's what you said."

Xu Shi returned the smile.

"hold head high."

The white-haired loli nodded, then called Xia Wuyou over and muttered a few words in a low voice.

I didn't hear what was said, but I saw Xia Wuyou's face getting red...

"Alright, alright, why are you making such a scene of life and death?"

Xie Qingyan interrupted unhappily, "Do you trust our Prism's technology?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Wuyou pulled away from his aunt and watched Xia Ke'an being pushed into the operating room.

The red light came on, and she unconsciously held Xu Shi's hand.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 149 Let her listen and make her mad!

147 was slightly changed, and a small part was placed in this chapter. I feel that this is smoother and more like a white scholar...

-

The walls of hospitals have heard more devout prayers than churches.

Xu Shi now deeply understands this sentence. After all, Xia Wuyou, who is curled up in his arms, is like this at the moment.

During the hours of waiting for the surgery, she no longer looked as cool as before. Her body was shaking unconsciously, and she kept muttering words of blessing for safety. She would look at Xu Shi from time to time and ask, "Will the surgery be successful? Will my aunt be okay?"

"…It'll be fine, don't worry."

What else could Xu Shi say? He could only continue to comfort her with such responses.

But he was actually a little nervous - this seemed to be a normal reaction. Not to mention the 95% success rate given by Xie Qingyan, even if she patted her chest and guaranteed that it would definitely succeed, anyone would be uneasy in this situation. Is there really anything in the world that is foolproof? Right?

What if we are really separated by heaven and earth?

He couldn't help but think about it for a while, and then suddenly realized that the old lady seemed to be very important in his heart...

Or maybe these close people are not important to him - even though he is a villain, good and bad things depend on people, right? Being ruthless and unscrupulous is for enemies, not for your own people.

Coming back to his senses, he smiled at himself.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

The light in the operating room finally turned from red to green.

"Thank you, Chairman!"

Seeing Xie Qingyan coming out, Xia Wuyou immediately went up to him and asked anxiously, "Aunt..."

"terribly sorry……"

Xie Qingyan took off his mask, with a hint of loss on his tired face.

!

Xia Wuyou felt as if he was struck by lightning, as if his soul had been sucked out of him, and he fell backwards uncontrollably.

Xu Shi was quick to support her, then looked at Xie Qingyan unhappily, waiting for her to finish her words.

"I'm sorry you can't visit her right now."

The dog woman then slowly uttered the second half of the sentence, "The patient is still in the sterile treatment cabin and needs to be taken to the recovery room for observation first."

"?"

Xia Wuyou was still confused, and asked woodenly, "Then what about the surgery..."

"Of course it succeeded, otherwise why would we send her to the recovery room?"

The disappointment on Xie Qingyan's face disappeared, and he turned into his usual confident expression, "I told you a long time ago that you must believe in the strength of Prism."

"..."

Xia Wuyou was a little overwhelmed by the ups and downs. When he came to his senses, he was already covering his face with tears. Of course, they were tears of joy.

It worked!

Is this considered as...completely recovered, aunt?

In an instant, she felt as if a huge mountain in her heart suddenly disappeared - the biggest depression of more than ten years was completely solved. This unreal feeling even made her feel a little short of breath, and she felt dizzy.

As for crying...she had no intention of restraining herself at all. This was also a way of venting.

"Don't breathe too hard when you talk. It can kill people, you know?"

Xu Shi patted her on the back, helped her sit back down, and then gave Xie Qingyan a cold look.

He was actually secretly relieved, but more because he was not scared at all by the suspense of the bitch... He still understood his fiancée very well. If the operation really failed, she would be too embarrassed to see anyone. How could she take the initiative to talk to you? This is how arrogant people are.

"I just said I'm sorry. Can you blame me if you guys don't understand?"

Xie Qingyan retorted unconvinced, but it was obvious that she said that on purpose.

Who let that bastard keep hanging around the aunt and nephew these days? Although she didn't want to admit it, she was indeed jealous - but then again, they had been in contact with each other quite a lot these days, and seeing Xu Shi's slightly aggrieved look, she knew that this guy might not be that free, and her mood inexplicably improved a lot.

But I'm still angry. What's wrong with scaring you a little?

"Alright alright."

Xu Shi didn't care and nodded to her seriously, "Thank you for your hard work."

Do you care about me now? Surgery is tiring, isn't it... Xie Qingyan hummed in his heart, but it was quite comfortable to hear the dog man say that.

But when the words came out of his mouth, he said something else. "This is a deal between us. I still have basic business integrity... What about you? What are the benefits you promised?"

"...I'll tell you in detail later?"

Xu Shi blinked, but he didn't mean to deny his debt. This was not the place to talk about business... It couldn't be explained in a few words. "You should have a good rest first. I will go to Prism to talk to you in person later."

"Row."

Xie Qingyan stretched his muscles and said, "By the way, that Xia Ke'an is also an "Upgrader", right? Such a serious complication... Logically speaking, this cannot be considered a complete cure. It can only be said to be suppressed as much as possible. You still have to be careful when using your superpowers, otherwise it will relapse. You should know this?"

She seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if she had guessed something, but after thinking it over she changed her words and gave instructions in a doctor's tone.

"Okay, I'll follow the doctor's orders."

Xu Shi deeply agreed with this. Even without Xie Qingyan saying it, he understood it - "Upgraders" always cause complications when using their abilities, and Xia Ke'an is no exception. Complications are difficult to completely eradicate. As long as they are used again, it will inevitably trigger symptoms, especially for someone like her who is SS-level.

It's like a racing car with super performance but has had an accident. Even if it is repaired and patched up, it can't be driven without any care, or it will still fall apart...

As for whether Xie Qingyan noticed anything behind Xia Ke'an's back, he didn't care. The doctor would surely discover these things sooner or later during a physical examination. It couldn't be concealed. There were also only a handful of SS "promoters" in the Night Sin City. The problem was that she didn't realize it.

But this is not enough for her to hold me hostage. Can she use this to threaten me? On the contrary, now is the honeymoon period of the cooperation between the two companies. If she is really smart, it is the right thing to do to keep it secret for me... It is not a bad thing for a partner to have a big killer in his hand.

Perhaps she also discovered that Xia Ke'an was no ordinary person, so she personally stepped in to help with the operation - this was not only to repay the favor owed to the Tenth District, but also something she had to do as foolproof as possible, otherwise if something went wrong, the subsequent cooperative relationship would inevitably be greatly reduced.

Xu Shi didn't intend to make it clear, and there was no need for him to take the initiative to break the window paper.

So he just smiled and said, "Do you want to see Mr. Xie off?"

"Forget it, it's just a few steps away from the office."

Xie Qingyan curled his lips and pretended to be generous, "You should go and accompany your lovely subordinate first. It's not good to leave him crying there."

"The palms and backs of your hands are all made of flesh."

Xu Shi shrugged shamelessly.

"Go to hell."

Xie Qingyan glared at him, and when he turned to leave, he suddenly thought of something and turned back to tease, "Boss Xu, you should pay attention to your hands."

Ok?

Xu Shi looked down and found that his right hand was a little bruised.

This was held by Xia Wuyou just now. You can see that she was really nervous just now, and her grip was really strong. It's like this after a few hours... A-level upgraders are really not just talk.

He hadn't reacted at first, but after hearing this, he suddenly felt a little numb, hiss...

"This is no small matter. It's best to get treatment."

Xie Qingyan said seriously, "I'll give you a secret recipe. Find chili oil, sesame oil, soy sauce, peppercorns, star anise, cinnamon, and bay leaves. Add water and boil it. Then just soak it."

"Oh...huh?"

Xu Shi was stunned for a moment before he reacted, "What the hell is this folk remedy?"

"A folk recipe for braised pig's trotters."

Xie Qingyan was laughing so hard that her body was shaking.

"Don't think I won't spank you just because the operation is successful."

"Come if you can."

Xie Qingyan was not afraid of his threats and left in a good mood.

You bitch, you are rebelling!

Xu Shi made a face at her back, pouted his lips, and asked someone for medical spray.

The bruises on his hands quickly disappeared, and when he looked back, Xia Wuyou was still crying.

Xu Shi suddenly found it a little funny when he saw this. Just looking at this scene, Team Leader Xia's character was completely destroyed... But it was understandable. Xu Shi felt that even if it was him, he would not be much stronger than her at this moment.

"Okay, your aunt is fine now."

All he could do now was to comfort her. He had to say it, but her tearful look was still very adorable. It was rare to see her like that, and maybe he would never see it again in the future. Xia Wuyou was not a crybaby.
