Chapter 3053
3053 Impatience
“Roger that!” The five special forces soldiers who could leave followed Major General Yang out. T6 even closed the conference room door.
Commander Xia glanced at Ye Jian. His gaze made Ye Jian’s heart jump. Xia Jinyuan tightened his grip.
Xia Jinyuan could still guess things if his father asked Ye Jian to stay back with him. However, he also asked Demon King Li to stay back. His father looked at Li Jinnian after looking at Ye Jian. Many possibilities had already flashed past Xia Jinyuan’s mind.
If there was a lot of progress in the case of Martyr Sun Xueqing, then only Ye Jian and himself would need to remain. Why would the Demon King be asked to stay back? Hence, it shouldn’t be about this.
The Demon King stayed back. Old Xia even glanced at the cousins. Could it be… Could it be… Xia Jinyuan, who had thought of a possibility, tensed up.
He was sitting with Ye Jian to begin with. Now that the two of them were standing, they were much closer. When Xia Jinyuan heard the sound of the conference room door closing, he subconsciously reached out his left hand toward Ye Jian’s wrist.
“The three of you, follow me to the hospital. Old Master Fu went out for a walk around five in the afternoon. He didn’t pay attention to the ground, tripped, and broke his hip. He’s undergoing surgery at the general military hospital.”
Li Jinnian’s and Ye Jian’s hearts tightened. Xia Jinyuan was already holding Ye Jian’s hand tightly so that she could feel more at ease.
When Commander Xia said that the old man was undergoing an operation in the hospital, Xia Jinyuan could clearly feel Ye Jian’s body swaying.
His little fox valued kinship the most. Now that she finally found her home and her grandpa, she was very afraid of losing everything.
Ye Jian was indeed afraid. Fractures weren’t scary. What was scary were the various complications that could happen after a fracture. That was what scared her.
Because she knew a little about it, Ye Jian felt her vision turning black.
Her body swayed uncontrollably. Just as she was about to reach out to support herself on the edge of the conference table, a strong arm held her.
“Don’t panic. Old Xia held the meeting for almost an hour. This means that Grandpa’s condition is still alright,” Xia Jinyuan said in a low voice.
Li Jinnian asked in a low voice, “Commander-in-Chief, do you know how my grandfather is doing?”
“Chief Engineer Fu told me that the old man was still conscious before he entered the operating room. Chief Engineer Fu went to the hospital to take a look.” Commander Xia had already walked to the door. The cousins couldn’t sit still. They wouldn’t waste any time.
The group of people took huge steps. Although their steps were huge, they were steady. There was no sign of panic at all. They only saw a group of soldiers walking with huge steps.
Because they needed to implant steel rods and the old man was old, the surgery took a very long time. Ye Jian and Li Jinnian rushed to the hospital. The light outside the operating room was still on. Mr. Fu wasn’t sitting down. He stood in front of the operating room, looking up at the light quietly.
The old master entered the operating room at 5:37 pm. It was already ten minutes past nine. The surgery wasn’t over yet. Mr. Fu was getting more and more anxious.
Why wasn’t he out yet…
Just as he was thinking about this, he heard footsteps behind him. Mr. Fu immediately thought of who it might be. He turned around abruptly and saw his daughter. She was wearing a neat military uniform and low-heeled black leather shoes that were distributed for all the female soldiers. She was walking faster and faster from the corridor. When she saw him, she jogged over.
