The old man was laughing hard on his bed.
The other seven people in the room all looked at him as if they had just seen a ghost, and then they looked back at Xu Cheng.
Feeling the shocked look from those guys, the old man slowly withdrew his smile, and he asked uncertainly, “Am I really not dead?”
Minister Ye slapped himself on the face, and after making sure he wasn’t dreaming, he suddenly dropped onto his knees by Elder Ye’s beside and burst out in tears of joy. “Dad! You aren’t dead! Xu Cheng saved you from the dead!”
Ye Xiu, who still had a hand holding onto Xu Cheng’s collar, immediately withdrew his hand. Guilt slowly began to surface to replace the shock on his face.
“I… Big Brother Cheng… I…” He didn’t know what to say, and he directly just gave himself a few slaps on the face. They were very loud.
Seeing no sign of Ye Xiu stopping slapping himself, he directly grabbed onto his wrist. “What are you doing?”
“I’m an idiot!” Ye Xiu’s eyes had become bloodshot and he didn’t know how to express himself anymore.
He directly kneeled before Xu Cheng and said, “I thank you in the Ye Family’s place!”
Whether or not Elder Ye was dead was very important to the Ye Family.
Xu Cheng pulled him up and said, “Get up. Why are you kneeling? Didn’t I acknowledge you as my little brother already? Why are you kneeling to me?”
“I treated you like that just now… Sorry, Big Brother Cheng! If you feel like whatever part of your body is still hurting, just hit me and kick me, as long as it makes you feel better.”
Xu Cheng: “You weren’t in the wrong. If it was me and someone was treating my grandpa like that, I would probably kill him right away.”
Ye Xiu gritted his teeth. “In the future, if you need me to even jump into fire or go down to hell, just give me the word!”
Xu Cheng: “Alright, let the doctors come in and check on the old man’s body. I’m thirsty.”
He said as he found a chair and sat down.
Minister Ye’s wife directly came over to pour a cup of tea for him.
“Auntie, I will do it myself.”
“Let me!” Auntie Ye insisted on personally pouring tea for him. Then, handing it over in both hands, she sincerely said, “If you need anything in the future, give me or your Uncle Ye a call.”
Xu Cheng accepted the cup and sighed.
At this time, the old man had already gotten changed into a new set of clothes with Minister Ye’s help, and he said, “Why are you guys still being so polite to him and not regarding him as a family? What did I tell you guys before?”
Xu Cheng grinned. “Haha, yeah, it’s no big deal. Actually, I’ve thought about not coming back. But then again, there are always a few legends in the world that would be a big loss if not saved. So, I came back. But then again, it’s indeed really troublesome to treat you, old man. Before when I was saving that Senator Jerry guy, he was begging for me to treat him. But this time, Old Man, it was really difficult. If they cooperated, I wouldn’t have to dump your foot-washing water from yesterday onto you.”
“What? Senator Jerry was saved by you? You mean that Jerry that had terminal cancer and had been missing for two years after giving up on the election? I was also confused when I saw him appearing on the news again recently!” Elder Guo was shocked. They were still pretty caught up with the M Nation’s news.
Uncle Ye and his wife and son were all flushed. Ye Pei was still sorry about how they treated Xu Cheng just now.
“Little Cheng, if you are still unhappy… you can come and hit me. I, Ye Pei, will not fight back at-”
Before he could finish, Elder Ye who was beside him immediately slapped him across the face as he said with mild anger, “If you are going to ask him to hit you, then sincerely move your face closer to his hand! Why are you still having him to come over to hit you? Who do you think you are?”
Chapter 489: Shouldn’t Be A Problem to Live 10 More Years (Part Two)
Minister Ye felt the burning pain on his face. “Dad, it hurts!”
But immediately, his eyes lit up as he directly picked up his dad’s hand. “Dad, your hand, it has strength now!”
The old man also looked at his hands in a daze, he was also at a loss when he realized how much strength he could summon.
The other four elders narrowed their eyes as they looked at Xu Cheng, their eyes full of inquiry.
Xu Cheng was too lazy to look back at them. He just said to Auntie Ye, “Auntie, can I have another cup of tea? The tea you made sure tastes good.”
Ye Xiu’s mom smiled. “Little Cheng, about what just happened, Auntie’s sorry. I was too anxious.”
“No worries, I already forgot about it. You are senior, it’s normal for you to beat junior.” Xu Cheng smiled like it was no big deal. Then, he was prepared to run away.
But who knew, the moment he got up, the four elders’ odd voices sounded.
“Where are you going?”
Xu Cheng coughed. “I’ve done the deed and choose to leave aside fame and glory. Of course I’m retreating now.”
Grandpa Xing glared at him. “Sit down! Wait until Big Brother Ye gets his body checked out first.”
The four pairs of eyes that were like tigers locking onto a prey obviously made it impossible for Xu Cheng to leave dashingly like an anonymous hero.
After sitting back down, the three doctors that initially left were summoned again. Seeing Elder Ye who had changed into a casual outfit sitting on the bed, the three of them were all shocked. If they didn’t see the other people in the room, they would’ve thought they saw a ghost under broad daylight or something.
Elder Zhou said, “Go over and check Big Brother Ye’s body.”
“H-he… he…” The three doctors looked terrifyingly at the old man sitting on the bed. Not to mention sitting, even if his eyes were open, it would scare the crap out of them, not to mention how he was sitting there energetically.
“He’s alive again,” Elder Guo nonchalantly said.
The three doctors’ legs almost gave in.
“Told you guys to hurry up and check, what are you still waiting for?” Elder Ye shouted.
The three of them immediately came back to their senses and brought out all kinds of equipment. The electrocardiogram began to beep steadily, confirming that this old man was indeed alive and not a ghost.
After checking the pulse, the Eastern medicine doctor asked a few other questions and he exchanged a look with the other doctors.
Then, he said in amazement, “Elder Li, this is really strange. What happened to your body? We haven’t even left for more than 30 minutes, how did it suddenly become like this?”
Elder Zhou anxiously asked, “Did it become better or worse? Or is this a temporary relapse of radiance before the demise and that the illness is actually still there?”
“No!” The three doctors immediately shook their heads. “Not at all. On the contrary, Elder Ye’s body could not be any better! We noticed that every part of his body is in very good condition, and the medical equipment assessment shows that all stats are good! Even some parts of his body with bone marrow necrosis are actually all cured now! Elder Ye, you can feel that you can move around freely and summon strength now, right? I’ve found that many parts of his joints and bones that suffered abrasion and were worn out from back in the days have all been completely recovered.”
The four elders immediately asked, “Then would you guys say that with Big Brother Ye’s current condition, the illness will come back again? Also, evaluate him and see how many years he still has left.”
At this moment, Xu Cheng took a sip of the tea and nonchalantly said, “For the time being, he should be fine for at least ten more years or so.”
The four elders and Elder Ye’s bodies all trembled.
