Chapter 127: Chapter 127:

Fu Xingzhou rushed back to Hong Kong.

Hospital, conference room.

It was already deep into the night, but several experts were still sitting here waiting for Fu Xingzhou.

Before he entered, everyone was exchanging various documents and discussing amongst themselves, with a professor named Geng Zhong taking the lead.

Professor Geng Zhong had been involved in kidney disease research for decades and was not only nationally renowned, but also internationally acclaimed.

Upon seeing Fu Xingzhou come in, everyone greeted him.

They were expensive specialists hired personally by Fu Xingzhou, tasked specifically with treating the illness of Fu Wei Jun.

"Mr. Fu," Geng Zhong spoke on behalf of everyone present, "Here is the latest test result, please have a look."

"Please go straight to the point, Professor Geng," Fu Xingzhou sat down at the head of the table, his expression gloomy.

Seeing his dark mood, Professor Geng tried to speak as gently as possible, "The donor’s tests have all been completed, and we can confirm that his kidney is a perfect match for Old Sir Fu. However... the donor himself has a clotting disorder, which means that if we go ahead with the surgery, there’s a high risk of uncontrollable bleeding."

"What are the chances?"

After exchanging glances and opinions, Geng Zhong replied, "Fifty percent, there’s a fifty percent chance of ensuring the donor’s survival."

"Only fifty percent?" Fu Xingzhou suddenly hurled his phone onto the table, the loud crash reverberated through the room, causing everyone’s breath to catch, "I’ve spent so much money to hire you, the world’s top experts, and you’re telling me there’s only a fifty percent chance? I don’t care what it takes, he must survive."

Professor Geng looked troubled, "Mr. Fu, it’s not that we haven’t tried our best, but there are still challenges in medicine that we haven’t overcome..."

"I don’t want to hear this, I want results." Fu Xingzhou stood up, "He must live."

No matter the cost or how many specialists had to be brought in, he had to live.

Professor Geng didn’t understand why Fu Xingzhou’s reaction was so extreme.

As the donor, he had previously signed an agreement voluntarily donating one of his kidneys, even accepting the responsibility for any consequences resulting from the surgery.

Including death during or after the operation.

Fu Xingzhou was desperate to save Fu Wei Jun, so he should not really care about the donor’s fate, but he was adamant that they must ensure this person’s safety.

Could there perhaps be some connection between them?

Professor Geng did not dare to ask more, "Mr. Fu, regarding the surgical plan, I’d like to discuss it further with you."

Fu Xingzhou composed himself and sat down again, "Go ahead."

There was a large screen in the conference room, upon which Professor Geng projected a pre-prepared PowerPoint presentation, revealing a young face amidst the text.

Whatever was being said in the room, Fu Xingzhou seemed not to hear a word of it.

That face blurred before his eyes, and gradually, it transformed into another.

She was smiling at him, with tenderness in her eyes, but quickly, her face twisted as if a sudden cloud had dispersed.

Her gaze, angry and consuming, seemed to want to devour him whole.

Fu Xingzhou closed his eyes, supporting his forehead with one hand, a pained expression on his face.

"Mr. Fu, Mr. Fu..." Professor Geng called out cautiously a couple of times.

Fu Xingzhou looked up again, his eyes bloodshot, "Can we wait a little longer?"

"What?" Professor Geng thought he had misheard.

"Give me a few more days, maybe there will be a more suitable person." Fu Xingzhou finished speaking, and without waiting for a response, he strode out of the conference room.

Leaving Professor Geng and the others exchanging puzzled looks.

The donor had already been found and agreed to the surgery at any time; why delay and look for someone else? It wasn’t in Old Sir Fu’s best interest.

Fu Xingzhou was known for his filial piety, so what was going on this time?

Fu Xingzhou got into his car and suddenly felt something soft.

He pulled a keychain toy out of his pocket, a figure with messy yellow hair and bright red lips, comically styled.

"Hang it up," he handed the toy to the driver.

The driver took it, visibly hesitating—was his boss really sure about hanging such a thing in a car worth millions?

But an order was an order, so he found a suitable spot and hung the little toy on the windshield.

The luxury car decor and opulent dashboard starkly contrasted with the ugly little thing.

Yet Fu Xingzhou, looking at it, softened his gaze for a rare tender moment.

He took out his phone and saw a message from Ye Yan saying she was home.

Checking the time and knowing she hadn’t gone to sleep yet, he initiated a video call.

The call rang for only a few seconds before connecting, but the face that suddenly appeared made Fu Xingzhou frown.

Ye Yan’s face was covered with a white mask, which then filled the entire screen, startlingly so.

"Did I scare you?" Ye Yan peeled off the mask, revealing her moist and glowing skin, the remnants of the mask’s essence visible on her tender skin.

Her beauty was innate, emanating from deep within her bones, particularly enhanced by her fair complexion.

"Beautiful," Fu Xingzhou smiled, "How could my wife be frightening."

"Are you done with your work?"

"Just finished," Fu Xingzhou gestured for the driver to start the car, "I’ll be staying in Hong Kong for a while, call me if you need anything."

Ye Yan pouted slightly.

She knew he was busy, but she too had her moments of temper.

She was upset.

Fu Xingzhou’s smile deepened, "Unhappy?"

"Not at all." The words ’not happy’ were written all over her face, "You’re busy with important matters, I don’t want to hold you back."

"Once I’m done with this busy period, I will definitely spend time with you. Didn’t you want to visit Capital City? I’ll take you."

"I’ve been there already." Ye Yan emphasized to him, "I took Xiao Zhun with me, have you forgotten?"

Fu Xingzhou hadn’t forgotten.

"Xiao Zhun is planning to go to university in Capital City after graduation. I suggested he stay there, but he refuses." Ye Yan shrugged towards the screen, "Am I really such a worry to him?"

Fu Xingzhou stayed silent, just listening as she spoke.

"By the way, when you come back this time, I’ll introduce you two," Ye Yan said excitedly, "He’ll be shocked to see that the Gambling King of Ao City is his brother-in-law."

"Yanyan." Fu Xingzhou suddenly interrupted her, "If Xiao Zhun..."

"What’s wrong with Xiao Zhun?" Ye Yan’s face instantly became serious.

"It’s nothing, I just wanted to say that you and your brother have a great relationship."

Ye Yan patted the essence on her face to help it absorb, "In my life, the two most important people are Xiao Zhun and you."

She pointed a finger at the screen, "Both of you are important to me, you must get along well, understand?"

Ending the video call.

Fu Xingzhou’s hand holding the phone trembled slightly.

What if her most important person hurt the other? What would she do then?

He understood her and that’s why he was afraid.

Afraid of her cold departure, afraid she would tell him, they should never meet again even at the point of death.
