Chapter 1269: Chapter 1272: Saving Someone (Part 1)

"Dad, I still think you should go to the hospital for another check-up!" Mu Chen said.

He didn’t say directly to go to the hospital for treatment.

Instead, he gave a more tactful suggestion.

He believed his dad would understand.

Mu Rou, standing by, immediately nodded.

Of course, it’s better to go to the hospital for treatment!

How could they trust a random young person of unknown background to treat him?

Even if he did see some issues with dad’s health.

But these health issues were only his own claims.

No one can really be sure what the truth is.

Maybe he’s just deceiving people!

This possibility is something the brother and sister are firmly convinced of.

Uncle Mu clearly knew what his children were thinking, but he believed that Xiaolin, who had just saved his life, wouldn’t deceive him.

Or rather, there was no reason for him to deceive him.

Moreover, some incidents he mentioned were known only to him.

That Xiaolin could guess these details made him trust him even more.

"Go inside and see if Xiaomai and the others have finished making breakfast!" he said to Mu Chen and Mu Rou with a firm tone.

Mu Chen and Mu Rou exchanged a glance, seeing their dad’s decision reflected in each other’s eyes.

They felt uneasy and worried deep down.

Dad, it seems like you’re really getting old.

Back then, how could you believe in such a fraud?

Both of them stopped persuading and didn’t go back inside either, saying, "We won’t say anything more, everything is up to you, Dad!"

But they thought secretly, what are you really up to?

If it’s about conning millions, honestly, they wouldn’t care.

They might even think it’s quite a good way.

But if it’s about shares, they’d stop him even if it meant facing Dad’s wrath.

They also secretly resolved that if it really involved shares, they’d be willing to pay to give this kid a hefty warning.

So outsiders would know that even if their dad’s reputation for giving away shares was widespread.

But they, as siblings, were no longer powerless.

Lin Xi glanced at the siblings, truly unsure of what they were thinking!

Had it not been for the fact that the old man seemed decent, he wouldn’t have bothered to intervene!

Of course, whatever these siblings thought didn’t affect the decisions he made.

The old man was the old man, his children were his children.

Their relationship had no relevance to him and couldn’t sway his decisions; he could clearly distinguish that.

For instance, if the old man’s son were a bad person, would Lin Xi not save the old man?

That’s a completely separate issue.

One person’s matter shouldn’t be associated with another’s.

Things should be kept clear!

"Old man, take this pill!" Lin Xi had a smooth, greenish pill in his hand, which was the Small Returning Pill.

This pill’s primary function was to restore True Qi for practitioners.

But it also had the effect of healing internal injuries in the body.

The results were quite impressive.

In other words, giving this pill to Uncle Mu was an overuse of its efficacy.

However, Lin Xi didn’t have time to prescribe medicine and use multi-course massages for treatment.

After all, he was leaving today.

"What is this?" Uncle Mu accepted the Small Returning Pill from Lin Xi’s hand as if it were a living thing.

And as soon as it appeared in Lin Xi’s hand, the fragrance was in the air.

This is no ordinary item!

This thought suddenly popped into his mind.

"You don’t need to worry about what this is, just take it and your injuries will naturally improve!" Lin Xi said.

The old man had no hesitation, raising his hand to swallow the pill.

But just as he made this motion, his son Mu Chen quickly reached out to stop him, "Dad, don’t!"

Uncle Mu turned to look at him, his face showing a wry smile, so he let go.

If he didn’t let go, maybe the old man was about to get mad right then.

Or he’s already starting to get mad.

Alright, alright!

Just eat it; could it be poison after all?

And the chances of it being poison are slim, considering his dad no longer cared about the company’s affairs.

If there was poison, it should have been for him and his sister!

The Small Returning Pill entered his mouth!

Uncle Mu immediately felt the pill melt into liquid, flowing down his throat.

In an instant, it was gone.

Then, he immediately felt warmth spreading throughout his body.

That feeling was unprecedented.

It was like returning to the vigor of youth.

Even at his peak youthfulness, his energy and body had never reached this level.

"What is this exactly?" he was utterly astonished internally.

But then he frowned.

He could clearly feel that the injuries Lin Xi mentioned, and some smaller injuries, were healing rapidly within him.

It seemed these would heal in a few minutes.

However, the strange energy within was too overwhelming.

He could feel his body couldn’t take much more.

And his body temperature kept rising, as if it was about to ignite.

This....

He felt a surge of fear.

Was he going to die?

Because, he had completely lost control!

There was no mind to think of anything else at this moment.

Like whether Lin Xi bore any ill intent.

Beside him, Mu Chen and Mu Rou were also in a hurry!

Evidently, they could see the old man’s condition worsening.

Mu Chen immediately reached out to support the old man to sit down.

However, the moment he touched the old man, he recoiled sharply.

It was too hot!

"Call for an ambulance!" he urgently told Mu Rou.

Mu Rou quickly got her phone out and started dialing.

Mu Chen, meanwhile, braved the heat from his father’s body and aided him to sit on a wooden stool nearby.

He asked anxiously, "Dad, what’s wrong?"

"Don’t scare me!"

However, Uncle Mu didn’t respond to him.

Or rather, he couldn’t hear any sound from the outside world at that moment.

Mu Chen turned, "You..."

He was about to reprimand Lin Xi, questioning why he would harm him.

But then he saw that Lin Xi’s figure had disappeared from the original spot.

The next moment, he noticed Lin Xi reappeared on his other side.

One of his hands was pressing on the old man’s back.

Mu Chen was furious, "What are you trying to do?"

By this time, Mu Rou had finished the call.

The commotion had caught the attention of the household guards, servants, as well as the just-woken old lady and Princess Consort Le, who all came following the noise.

"You, get him away from my dad!" Mu Chen shouted to the two guards, "Don’t let him get close to my dad again!"

"Also, hold him down; don’t let him escape!"

The two guards exchanged a look, appearing somewhat confused.

They were entirely uncertain if they should follow Mu Cheng’s orders.

But at this point, they noticed the old man’s condition was very worrying.

And what was that young man doing with his hand on his back?

Could this be some kind of treatment?
