Gong Jie suddenly thought of something and led his sister to the balcony by the hand. âI have an idea.â
âYes?â
âIâll bring your father back to the Gongs.â
Yun Shishi was stunned. âYour family?â
He replied with great confidence, âThey have the worldâs top medical facility that no one entity can match up to. If I bring him back with me, I dare to promise that heâll receive no less than the best treatment ever. Heâs also likely to recover his speech, too.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âReally?â His sister was still hesitant.
âOf course!â The man pondered for a second before continuing. âWe had a man who was injured by a grenade some time ago. The doctor at a local hospital told us that they would be unable to keep his legs so we had to send him to the Gongsâ medical base. In less than a month, the man could attempt to walk and then made full recovery half a year later. This was considered a miracle by the standard of medical care around the world.â
âCan they really help my father get well?â
He shook his head. âI canât confirm the extent at which he can get better, but at the very least, the medical facility over there will be twice as good as here. Plus, I can guarantee his safety if heâs with the Gongs!â
His sister was persuaded then. âIf itâs possible, then letâs get him to be treated at your familyâs medical facility.â
He agreed. âLet me make some arrangements. Tomorrow, Iâll get an airplane to send your father over there.â
âDo we have to do it so soon?â
âWith your father in this condition, the faster we act, the more optimistic his recovery will be, naturally. I donât have the confidence regarding his recovery if we are to delay further.â
The woman mulled over this decision for a very long time before she slowly nodded in agreement.
Gong Jie took out his satellite phone and told his sister, âThen, Iâll make the arrangement now.â
âWait!â
Yun Shishi caught hold of his hand suddenly.
He lifted a brow at her quizzically, only to hear her ask him with some hesitation, âCan you tell me what kind of people are the Gongs?â
He was stunned for a while and knitted his brows at the question. Slowly, the creases on his forehead loosened, and he asked her gently, âSis, do you really want to know?â
âYes, of course! This has something to do with you, so I naturally want to know more about them!â
The man chuckled unexpectedly, stroked her head, and comforted, âIâll tell you since you wanna listen, but letâs settle your fatherâs affair for now; Iâll talk to you more next time when I have the opportunity.â
âAlright!â
He laughed and flicked her forehead without warning. As he leaned his forehead on hers, he asked softly, âHave you heard of Hurricane Group?â
âHurricane Group?â
âYes!â affirmed the man, then he added, âThe Gong family is behind that organization.â
Hurricane Group...
As the siblings returned to the ward, the woman was still pondering over his words.
Gong Jie walked up to his brother-in-law and related their discussion to him.
âIs the Gongsâ medical facility really that great?â Mu Yazhe was not entirely convinced.
âOf course!â He cocked his brow defiantly at the other man. âOur familyâs medical technology is something that the Mu family canât match.â
The other manâs face sank at his taunting.
When Youyou was told that his uncle would bring his grandfather back to the Gongs for treatment, the boy slapped his forehead with a start and muttered, âWhy didnât I think of that?! Surely, the Gongs will be able to provide grandfather with the care that he needs.â
His mother looked at him with surprise. âDo you know that family as well?â
âErm...â
The boy bit his lower lip in self-admonition.
Oh, no...
I had a slip of the tongue!
His queer reaction only got his mother more suspicious. âYouyou, you look very suspicious!â
