Chapter 355 Being elderly and now blind
en Yue lowered his head to look at Mu Xing, his handsome face slightly serious. "This matter of me holding you tonight, you must keep it a secret, absolutely can't let Master Fu know."Mu Xing was worr...Fu Lingxiao stayed in the ward for a long time, so long that Wu Guanshi was worried he would faint and carefully opened the door a crack to check.
The man sat beside the bed like a statue, his large hand gripping the small one that rested on his pale cheek.
Those lifeless eyes stared unblinkingly at the sleeping girl. His tall figure radiated weakness, as if struggling to stay upright.
Wu Guanta felt both pity and helplessness. He knew the young master's temperament too well; unless he himself wanted to leave, no one could persuade him.
He sighed inwardly, but then saw the man suddenly gently let go of Mu Xing's hand, fumble to tuck in her blanket for her, and help himself up by the armrest.
Wu, the steward, immediately pushed open the door and rushed to support him.
Fu Lingxiao pushed away Wu Gu's hand, "No need, I'll walk myself."
He accepted the fact of his temporary blindness as quickly as possible. What he needed to do now was adapt as fast as he could and minimize the impact of his blindness.
Fu Lingxiao groped his way out of the ward. Shen Lue, who had been waiting in the shadows for a long time, appeared. "Mr. Fu,"
How are you
Though tall and pale, even sickly to the extreme, the man still radiated an aura of oppression.
Even though he knew the other person could no longer see, Shen Lue still didn't dare to meet his gaze. He lowered his head and reported with trembling voice:
“Two people did indeed come to rescue Lan Xuan. One of them used a sniper rifle to attack us. When Situ went to the mental hospital to check the scene, he found fragments of bullet metal casings. After comparison, they matched those found in the villa. Unfortunately, we let them get away.”
He finished speaking and quickly added to salvage the situation: “Although they were wearing masks, I remember their eyes. If I saw them again, I would definitely be able to recognize them!”
But the man suddenly fell silent, pressing his thin lips together as if thinking about something.
Shen Lue dared not speak, stealing a glance and then lowering his head, waiting for the punishment of fate.
After a few minutes, the man finally spoke again: "Where's Lanxuan"
Master Fu didn't blame him, which made Shen Yue even more nervous. He fidgeted with his fingertips and replied, "I sent it to the Azure Dragon."
Fu Lingxiao ignored Shen Lue and said to Wu, the housekeeper beside him: "Uncle Wu, please run to the old house and bring Grandma's photo album."
Wu Guantao was puzzled, but still nodded and replied, "Oh, alright. I'll go after I send you back to the ward."
Fu Lingxiao faintly replied with a hum, and continued walking back to the ward.
Once again ignored, Shen Lue:...
Grandfather, please punish me! Without punishment, I can't feel at ease.
- Fu Lingxiao cautiously made his way back to the ward, Shen Yi and Yu Rong were still waiting for him.
"Wu Shu, you go."
He gave Wu the butler an order, then walked over and sat on the bed. Hearing the footsteps fade away, he spoke in a low voice: "What caused my blindness, and what are the chances of recovery"
He asked directly, and Yu Rong didn't beat around the bush. "When clearing the blood clot, the occipital lobe was injured. But what really caused your blindness is that the blood clot in the occipital lobe of the brain wasn't completely cleared, which put pressure on the optic nerve."
Fu Lingxiao pressed his eyebrows, "Can't the hematoma be completely cleaned"
"There's no other way. Even going deeper into the microcosm would cause immense damage to the pillow leaf, resulting in permanent blindness. The plan I propose now is to observe and see if the hematoma can be absorbed on its own."
Fu Lingxiao pursed his lips and remained silent.
Shen Yi frowned and asked, "What if we can't absorb it Will we just keep going like this"
"As of right now, yes."
Yu Rong looked at Shen Yi sitting on the sofa, "Mr. Shen, if you don't believe me, you can find other doctors to treat Mr. Fu, but I can assure you that even I am helpless, and anyone else would be the same."
Of course, besides that person, he couldn't treat Fu Lingxiao.
Shen Yi's expression turned serious, and he didn't speak any further.
"Mr. Fu, all you need to do right now is get plenty of rest. A healthy body will help your eyes recover too. There's nothing much going on here, so I'll head back to the office first. Mr. Fu, please ring if you need anything."
Yurong finished speaking and quickly left.
Shen Yi looked at the man on the sickbed with a gloomy face, cleared his throat and comforted him: "Old Fu, don't be disheartened. We still have Shi Ye, wait for him to come back and let him treat you."
Fu Lingxiao said coldly, "I'm not poisoned. It's useless for him to come back."
Shen Yi: "..."
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from outside the door: “As soon as I heard that Big Brother was in trouble, I immediately rushed back from abroad. Big Brother shouldn't blame me for coming too late, right”
Fu Jingmo walked in with his hands in his pockets, a hint of false concern on his cold and sharp face.
He heard it all outside the door, his older brother was blind and there was little hope of recovery. This was practically great news for him!
His long and narrow eyes were fixed on Fu Lingxiao's, "Big Brother, can't you see Do you need me to introduce a few ophthalmologists to Big Brother"
Tsk! This sounds so familiar.
Shen Yi leaned against the sofa, slightly tilting his head to look at Fu Jingmo.
Then it hit him, Old Fu had said to him that day at the old lady's birthday banquet, just those words, "Find an opportunity and repay him immediately." This kid's heart is smaller than a pinhole.
Shen Yi said sarcastically, "I don't need your help with Old Fu. If you're really that free, why not find a few neurologists to check your brain Get treatment as soon as possible, you might still be salvageable."
Fu Jingmo ignored Shen Yi. His target was the elder brother.
"Big brother, you are now blind in both eyes. It's possible that you will never recover in this lifetime. So don't hold onto Mu Xing any longer. After all, as a disabled person, you would only delay her life and make her hate you even more."
Fu Lingxiao didn't mind Fu Jingmo saying he was disabled, but the latter half of his sentence truly touched his sore spot. A murderous intent flashed in his gloomy brows, "Aren't those two bullets enough to teach you a lesson"
Fu Jingmo was very satisfied with his reaction, and smiled casually: "I'm just giving you a heads-up. Big brother, why are you so angry Are you being insecure"
"Inferiority"
Fu Lingxiao suddenly chuckled, a mocking sneer curving his pale lips. "With your shallow understanding and narrow perspective, it's normal to think that way."
Fu Jingmo's smile froze on his face, his eyes filled with confusion and hatred.
Suddenly losing sight would be a huge blow to anyone, let alone someone as accomplished as his elder brother. He should find it even harder to accept.
Why is he still so high and mighty, looking down on everyone
As if they didn't care at all.
He doesn't understand.
After Fu Jingmo left, Shen Yi looked at the man on the bed with a calm face and asked, "Are you really not ashamed"
He knew how strong his good brother was inside, but in front of loved ones, people would unconsciously magnify their flaws and develop feelings of inferiority. He worried he wouldn't be any different.
Fu Lingxiao, upon hearing this, simply raised the corner of his lips in a faint smile, "Why be inferior I got to where I am today relying on more than just these eyes."
The voice was as clear as day, yet devoid of warmth. The tone, however, was arrogantly superior.
Shen Yi suddenly felt that he had worried too much, and even couldn't help but want to hit this wealthy tycoon, "You're already old, and now you're blind. Just wait and see how your sister-in-law will dislike you!"
Fu Lingxiao raised his lips and smiled with certainty, "She won't."t, perfectly highlighting her figure. Matte black shark-clip held her long black hair back, giving her an air of both intelligence and laziness.Mu Xing looked at her curiously, and Wu Guanjia immedia...
