Chapter 764: The Gift Has Arrived

Dad, go back first! I'll just keep an eye on Youwei.

In the ward, Ji Xun said to Ji Shiren.

Ji Shiren stood up, "Good! I'll go home and make chicken soup for Youwei."

As he reached the door, Ji Shiren turned back, "Should we tell the Lin family about this?"

Ji Xun looked at her daughter Ji Youwei.

Her daughter had a gunshot wound on her chest, the wound was quite large.

This matter is still quite serious.

I don't know if it will affect future growth.

Ji Youwei hasn't realized this yet.

Ji Youwei said, "Let's wait until I'm better to talk about it!"

Ji Shiren nodded, opened the door and left.

This is a private ward; with the Ji family's finances, the cost of a private ward is still affordable.

Ji Xun then lifted her wrist to check the time; it was already past three in the afternoon.

Ji Youwei couldn't sleep for a moment, staring wide-eyed at the ceiling.

"Go to sleep quickly! The doctor said you need more rest so the wound will heal faster."

Ji Youwei gave an "mm" and closed her eyes.

Ji Xun took out a magazine from her bag and started flipping through it.

When she reached the fashion section, seeing the models inside, she couldn't help but think of Youwei's injury again.

Ji Xun became worried again.

After thinking, she felt she still needed to clarify this matter with Youwei.

It will definitely have an impact.

Seeing Youwei open her eyes, she wanted to speak but hesitated.

"Mom, I have something to say to me?"

Ji Youwei asked.

Ji Xun nodded, first sighed, then told Youwei her worries.

After she finished speaking, Ji Youwei fell silent.

Just as Mom said, what's the difference between this and a disfigurement?

Ji Youwei felt that when she grew up, her appearance wouldn't be bad.

She was confident about this.

Because Mom and Dad's looks aren't bad either, and she inherited their strengths.

But now...

She doesn't believe that Lin Shiyi won't care about this in the future.

"Really like that... In the future, I'll try to find a way to pay them back!"

Ji Youwei suddenly had no expectations for the future either.

Lin Shiyi is a scion of a wealthy family; if I don't have some looks, this will surely fall through.

For men, a woman's appearance comes first.

Second is talent and demeanor.

"I don't want to think about this so much now; let's talk later! Medicine is so advanced nowadays, you're still young, maybe it'll be fine later..."

Seeing her daughter's spirits a bit low, Ji Xun comforted her.

Just then, the ward door was knocked on.

"Dong dong dong..."

The first three knocks were loud, then they became much softer.

The one knocking was Lin Shiyi; sometimes when he can't control his strength, it's like this,

plus he was a bit nervous inside.

"Who is it?"

Ji Xun stood up, furrowed her brows and asked.

Ji Xun, whose conversation was interrupted by the knocking, was a bit unhappy.

No answer came from outside.

Ji Xun opened the door.

What came into view was a large bouquet of carnations.

The bouquet was so big that Lin Shiyi was hidden behind it.

"Auntie, hello!"

Lin Shiyi held up the flowers, tilted his head, and said.

Ji Xun was still seeing Lin Shiyi for the first time, and she was taken aback.

Although she had never met him in person, she had seen his photos and felt he was familiar.

Lin Shiyi called out, and she took a few seconds to react.

"You are... Lin Shiyi."

"Yes, Auntie! I came to see Youwei."

Lin Shiyi said.

"Come... come in!"

Ji Xun was actually a bit nervous at this moment.

He was a scion of a wealthy family; despite his youth, he couldn't be treated like a child.

Lin Shi Yi lifted the flower, walked to the bedside, placed the flower at the head of the bed, and then looked at Ji Youwei.

The two of them stared at each other.

After several seconds, Lin Shi Yi came to his senses and said, "I—I came to see you."

Ji Youwei, a little embarrassed, said, "Sorry, I lied to you on the phone earlier."

Lin Shi Yi scratched his head and said, "I know you didn't want to worry me."

If Lin Chang'e were here, she would definitely give Lin Shi Yi a thumbs‑up.

Ji Youwei asked again, "Why did you come over?"

Lin Shi Yi replied, "Today is New Year's Day, I was passing by, so I stopped by to see you."

He just said something pleasant, but the second sentence fell flat.

Lin Shi Yi was speaking the truth.

He was originally heading to the Moon for business, and visiting Ji Youwei was just a detour.

Ji Youwei was unperturbed, smiling, "I'm fine; you don't need to worry. I'll recover quickly. Please have a seat!"

"Alright!"

Lin Shi Yi sat down.

After sitting, Lin Shi Yi didn't know what to say next.

Ji Youwei opened, "Did you come on New Year's Day to see Tang Ye Ye and the others?"

"Uh, no!"

Lin Shi Yi shook his head.

At that moment, Ji Xun gave a slight smile and said, "You two talk; I'll step outside for a walk."

After speaking, she opened the door and walked out, leaving the two youngsters space to chat.

If an adult were nearby, the kids wouldn't speak so freely.

After stepping out, Ji Xun patted her forehead, feeling something odd.

Her own child is still so young, yet she suddenly felt like a mother‑in‑law.

"How's your wound?"

Lin Shi Yi asked.

"It's… okay…" Ji Youwei said awkwardly.

"Let me take a look."

Lin Shi Yi stood up.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing Lin Shi Yi about to lift her blanket, Ji Youwei, a little embarrassed and uneasy, said,

"Let me check your wound, see if the doctor here stitched it well; you know I'm a professional."

She spoke while moving her hand.

At that moment, Ji Youwei felt a certain aura emanating from Lin Shi Yi, an aura that allowed no resistance.

When the blanket was lifted, a whiff of medicine drifted out.

Lin Shi Yi frowned and said, "It's not the best wound medicine, and the stitching is too rough, but it's a bit better than how my mother stitched it."

"Huh?"

Ji Youwei's eyes widened.

Lin Shi Yi explained, "My mother used to be a Forensic Doctor and was often busy; after she made the cut, she would just stitch it casually, out of habit.

Once my father was injured, my mother stitched it herself, and what was a tiny wound ended up looking as if it had been hit by a Gatling‑gun bullet…"

"Pfft~"

Ji Youwei couldn't help but laugh.

But after touching the wound, she gritted her teeth and let out a sharp sound.

"Don't, don't laugh!"

Lin Shi Yi hurriedly said.

Ji Youwei suppressed her laugh, her face flushed, and after a while she calmed down, smiling, "Lin Shi Yi, I think you're sometimes quite humorous!"

Lin Shi Yi said seriously, "Everything I said is true; I heard it directly from my mother."

"Your father was injured too?"

Ji Youwei said in surprise.

Lin Shi Yi replied, "My father has many enemies."

While speaking, he pulled several small bottles of wound medicine, a Scalpel, suturing thread, and put on gloves…

"Lin Shi Yi, you're serious!"

Ji Youwei looked at Lin Shi Yi's actions and exclaimed in surprise.

She tried to dodge but found she had little strength left.

Lin Shi Yi calmly said, "Don't worry! I'll be gentle; you won't feel pain. These are special golden wound medicines my mother handcrafted, ten times more effective than those in a hospital.

More importantly, they can restore your wound to its original state without leaving any scar."

"Is that so?"

Lin Shi Yi's final sentence surprised Ji Youwei.

Lin Shi Yi wanted to explain that his mother used Witch Tribe genetics to develop cells that temporarily locally enhance ordinary people's injuries, promoting rapid wound healing, but he shut his mouth in time.

It's not yet the time to tell Ji Youwei about this.

He just nodded.

Lin Shiyi acted swiftly, finishing it in less than ten minutes.

After finishing, Lin Shiyi put away the bottle and scalpel, then went to the restroom to wash his hands.

After returning, he saw Ji Youwei already covered herself with a blanket.

"I—I saw you, and I will take responsibility for you."

After a long while, Lin Shiyi finally managed to say this.

"Pfft~"

Ji Youwei was pretending to sleep, but Lin Shiyi's remark made her laugh again.

Lin Shiyi looked at Ji Youwei somewhat helplessly.

Ji Youwei laughs at the slightest thing!

After she calmed down, Lin Shiyi said: "Today is New Year's Day; although our time there has passed, here in Mi Guo it hasn't yet. Ji Youwei, disaster you a happy new year, may you become ever more beautiful!"

Lin Baobao taught Lin Shiyi to say this.

"Thank you!"

Ji Youwei whispered.

Lin Shiyi then said: "I also prepared a gift for you!"

"Huh?"

Ji Youwei looked at Lin Shiyi curiously.

Lin Shiyi scratched his head and said: "You'll find out soon."

"Thank you!"

Ji Youwei said another sentence, her eyes full of anticipation.

Then the room fell silent again.

An awkward silence fell.

Ji Youwei felt a wave of drowsiness; so tired that closing her eyes sent her straight to sleep.

Lin Shiyi only exhaled after seeing Ji Youwei fall asleep.

Chatting with my wife is so hard!

Fortunately, Mother's enhanced golden wound medicine has a hypnotic effect.

Otherwise, I wouldn't know how to keep the conversation going.

He took out his phone and began sending messages to Lin Chang'e and the others.

First he contacted Lin Qingyue, Bei Shuying, and Bei Qingqian, reminding them not to run around randomly and not to touch those buttons in the cockpit.

Although Lin Shiyi had set a startup password when they left.

But there might be some functions in the cockpit of which he is unaware.

Bei Shuying and Bei Qingqian replied, saying Lin Donghu's paws were itchy and he had been randomly pressing buttons in the cockpit, for which they had already beaten him up.

Lin Shiyi knew they were joking.

Then he sent a message to Song Jiaren to ask.

Song Jiaren replied that she had already taken care of it.

Then he inquired about Lin Chang'e's side.

Lin Chang'e and Lin Baobao did not reply to the messages.

Because Keli Dawa Si had already left the police station.

A black sedan pulled up to the entrance; when Keli Dawa Si stepped out, he looked very arrogant, and after getting in, the driver of the black sedan floored the accelerator, nearly hitting a pedestrian.

Lin Chang'e and Lin Baobao exchanged a glance and then followed.

The vehicle carrying Keli Dawa Si moved slowly down the street.

After Lin Chang'e and Lin Baobao started running, they followed from afar.

Although passersby saw the two little girls running fast, they didn't think much of it.

……

After Qian Miaomiao and Zheng Enhui were sent away.

Lin Feng had a hearty meal, and in the process he also had an in-depth chat with Qi Yao.

Lin Feng noticed that Qi Yao was becoming more proactive.

Such a change is actually gradual.

It wasn't like that before.

Regarding Qi Yao's change, Lin Feng was naturally pleased.

Qi Yao handled the degree well, so she wouldn't make Lin Feng think she was a meddlesome woman.

At the same time, it could enhance the feelings between her and Lin Feng.

Chatting is just like that!

After finishing the chat, Lin Feng picked up his phone and called Old Master Tang Yao.

After exchanging greetings, he learned about Keli Dawa Si's background.

Tang Yao's subordinates had just finished investigating Keli Dawa Si and were about to send the information to Lin Feng.

Originally, Keli Dawa Si was merely a member of a recently formed Society People gang.

Since there was no conflict with the Tang Family, the Tang Family paid no attention.

The main point is that the Tang Family has gradually scaled back this line of business over the past two years.

The cleared space was occupied by many newly appeared thugs.

The Tang Family and the Ouyang Family can now achieve success and retire, thanks to Lin Feng.

As Lin Feng's business expands, the places needing manpower increase.

For example, Jasmine Island has absorbed a large number of talents.

There are also the oil fields over at Yun Luan and Liu Cangyun, and the Arutu Tribe in Feizhou…

Many of Lin Feng's subordinates' gray‑market dealings were also handed to the Tang Family and the Ouyang Family to handle.

Previously the two families' business was mainly in San Francisco's Chinatown, but now it spans the whole world.

In two years, the Tang Family and the Ouyang Family plan to leave Mi Guo completely.

After hanging up, Lin Feng felt relieved.

At least Lin Chang'e and Lin Baobao won't casually take the Tang Family and the Ouyang Family away.

It's not an exaggeration at all; Lin Feng knows very well Lin Chang'e's "ferocity".

After tearing the devils apart, Lin Chang'e's mindset was like ripping a piece of paper.

She's fine alone, but she also has Lin Baobao by her side.

Lin Baobao is Wen Keke's daughter and should be a good baby,

but this little brat now likes to stir up trouble.

Doing stand‑up comedy, that's how the straight man is, and Lin Baobao has now become crystal clear at it.

"We still need to keep things under control, Yao Yao, what do you think?"

Lin Feng asked.

Qi Yao, while tidying up, said lightly, "Shiyi's personality is actually a lot like yours."

Lin Feng nodded, "He's my son, of course he's like me."

Qi Yao didn't say it directly, but Lin Feng understood that Qi Yao was telling him to ignore it.

Lin Feng is a man who repays every insult, and his son should be the same.

A sudden joy rose in Lin Feng's heart.

He suddenly realized that, besides liking him, Yao Yao also admired him.

"Yao Yao…"

"Hmm?"

"Um… how about we have another one?"

"No!"

Rejected, Lin Feng felt regretful.

…

Tàiyáng set, night fell.

In the ward, Ji Xun was slicing an apple.

It wasn't for his daughter Ji Youwei, but for Lin Shiyi.

Watching Lin Shiyi stare wide‑eyed, constantly watching his own daughter as if afraid she'd run away, Ji Xun felt very satisfied.

That little brat seemed more concerned about Youwei than he was.

At such a young age, yet with such patience.

Aren't the children of wealthy families supposed to be prodigies?

Lin Shiyi is not like that at all.

"Shiyi, eat the apple!"

Ji Xun handed the apple to Lin Shiyi.

"Thank you, auntie!"

Lin Shiyi took the apple.

At that moment, Ji Youwei finally woke up.

Lin Shiyi glanced at the time, and after Ji Youwei fully recovered, said, "Youwei, the gift I sent you has arrived."

Saying so, he set the apple down and opened the ward's window.

At that instant, a whoosh sounded outside, followed by a bang.

A huge burst of fireworks exploded in the sky.
