Chapter 1723: Chapter 1723: Car Accident

(Third update)

Although Luo Ziling felt Yang Qingyin was quite scheming, his heart was still warm.

As long as the scheming wasn’t directed at him, he didn’t mind.

Yang Qingyin was willing to join him to overcome difficulties in their relationship, and of course, he was happy about it.

This showed that Yang Qingyin cared about him.

If Ouyang Huihui had also been scheming this time, trying everything to keep the child after knowing she was pregnant and using it as leverage to be with him, then although Luo Ziling would be distressed, he would also feel touched and proud.

Because he could sense Ouyang Huihui’s care for him.

Unfortunately, she didn’t, which left him disappointed.

Yang Qingyin drove a luxury car to pick him up, and Luo Liansheng was also quite happy, smiling warmly when greeting Yang Qingyin.

“Grandfather Luo, thank you so much for the treatment you’ve given my grandfather during this time. He said he feels much better these days,” Yang Qingyin said obediently to Luo Liansheng, who was also sitting in the back seat when they got into the car. “He’s very confident about a full recovery.”

“Having confidence is good. With confidence, everything else is not a problem.” Luo Liansheng replied earnestly, “When someone is sick, the scariest thing is giving up on themselves.”

“If your grandfather can get through this, he could live at least ten more years,” Luo Ziling, sitting in the passenger seat, turned back with a sly smile and said to Yang Qingyin, “Blessings in disguise depend on whether he’s willing to accept them.”

“Old Sir Yang has a rather narrow mind,” Luo Liansheng chuckled, stroking his beard. “If he were broader-minded, such ailments might not have afflicted him.”

“I hope after this, Grandfather can let go of things.”

“Your father has a similar personality, perhaps even more eccentric,” Luo Liansheng remarked in an amused tone. “If it goes on like this, he’ll have health problems too. You should persuade him whenever you can.”

“Okay,” Yang Qingyin agreed.

After half an hour of driving, they arrived at the Yang Family Old House.

To Luo Ziling’s surprise, Yang Yunlin and Chen Qiaoyu were both at the old house entrance to meet them.

When the car stopped, Yang Yunlin personally opened the door for Luo Liansheng.

However, with a sullen look on his face, it seemed he was forced by Yang Yuanshan to perform this gesture.

Luo Liansheng didn’t care about Yang Yuanshan’s displeasure. After exchanging greetings, he signaled for Luo Ziling to enter with him.

Chen Qiaoyu was already aware that Yang Yuanshan’s treatment had been effective, and both Yang Yuanshan and Yang Yunlin had been forced to abandon their hostility. Therefore, she paid no mind to Yang Yunlin’s expression, greeting Luo Ziling warmly with a smile: “Ziling, it’s unexpected, your capabilities are so impressive. You’ve defeated the two national experts from Japan and South Korea in the medical competition, and the whole world is amazed by you. Everyone thought traditional medicine relied on accumulated experience, but your achievements completely refute this. As they say, 99% perspiration is not as important as 1% talent. I watched your live broadcast that day, and I also saw how the crowd spontaneously welcomed you at the airport when you returned. I’m truly proud of you. Someone of your age achieving such feats is unparalleled across Huaxia.”

Yang Yunlin acted as if he hadn’t heard his wife’s words, walked faster, and distanced himself from Luo Liansheng and Luo Ziling.

But nobody paid attention to his little actions, and Yang Qingyin was even more pleased with her mother’s praise for Luo Ziling, laughing: “Mom, you weren’t at the scene to see the competition; everyone was super nervous. You have no idea what the atmosphere was like. The Korean deliberately tried to disrupt Ziling’s needlework, but fortunately, he wasn’t affected. Otherwise, who knows what the consequences would have been? If he had lost, nothing would have come of it.”

“Even if he had lost, his medical skills are no less than Ishihara Tarou’s or Xu Chongzhi’s,” Luo Liansheng affirmed, “In every respect, Ziling is better than them; he just lacks clinical experience. With age, this shortcoming will be addressed.”

“Old Mr. Luo, it’s all thanks to your excellent teaching. Without you two, many would still be suffering from illnesses,” Chen Qiaoyu said sincerely, “In the future, if we have any ailments, we hope you can help us. As we age, our bodies become weaker.”

“With him around, there’s nothing to worry about,” Luo Liansheng continued to push Luo Ziling forward.

Luo Ziling quickly agreed, “Auntie, if you feel unwell in any way, you can come to me, no matter how big or small the issue, I guarantee a quick cure.”

The four walked briskly, chatting animatedly, while Yang Yunlin, walking ahead, steadily built up his anger.

If he weren’t restraining himself, he would have lost his temper by now.

He hated his wife and daughter for distancing themselves from him for the sake of a few outsiders.

Because he felt upset, his resentment toward Luo Ziling deepened.

If it weren’t for his father’s need for treatment, he would have kicked Luo Ziling out right now.

Yang Yuanshan was not taking sick leave; he just minimized his participation in state affairs and foreign visits to spare more time for rest and treatment. He still had many affairs to attend to; a meeting in the morning, hosting foreign guests in the afternoon, and dealing with other matters afterward. He returned just ten minutes before Luo Ziling and Luo Liansheng.

Yang Yunlin and Chen Qiaoyu arrived even earlier; they were indeed sent by Yang Yuanshan to greet Luo Liansheng and Luo Ziling at the door.

After they came in, Yang Yunlin, who had changed clothes, came out of the room, smiling as he greeted Luo Liansheng and Luo Ziling, inviting the grandfather and grandson to stay for dinner that evening.

“I saw your competition results and the news coverage of your return, which were quite impressive,” Yang Yuanshan praised Luo Ziling with a smile. “Being crowned a National Hero by millions of netizens is a first in decades.”

The fact that her grandfather praised Luo Ziling in person delighted Yang Qingyin immensely.

But upon seeing her father’s face turn darker, she withheld her smile.

Yang Yuanshan also noticed his son’s unusual expression but didn’t pay attention, continuing: “Achieving such accomplishments at a young age is indeed commendable. To dare the domestic TV stations to broadcast the competition live, it truly requires confidence. Your performance recently has been remarkable.”

Hearing her grandfather praise Luo Ziling again, Yang Qingyin’s smile reappeared on her face.

Yang Yuanshan invited Luo Ziling and Luo Liansheng to sit down for tea and signaled Yang Qingyin to make tea for everyone, which Yang Qingyin happily went to do.

However, just as Yang Qingyin was about to make the tea, Yang Yuanshan’s secretary hurriedly ran in with some very unexpected news.

Yang Qingye had been in a severe car accident on the way to the old house and his fate was uncertain.
