He couldn't help but ask in a trembling voice, "My... my... my son... is he all right?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, he should be fine," Chen Fei said with a smile, taking over the conversation. I just used all my strength, employing the techniques that master from the Cultivation World taught me, to resolve the patient's life-threatening condition. That's why I'm so exhausted now; I've used up too much energy.
"Really?"
"He's... He's really all right! The patient's condition has stabilized. This is simply incredible!"
The other doctors could hardly believe it. They rushed over to the various monitors in the operating room, and moments later, a series of astonished cries broke out. "He's really all right! H-how... how is this possible? This is just unbelievable!"
"This young brother... oh, no, it's Doctor Chen, right? Thank you so much! If it weren't for you, I, Gao Zhinan, would be left without an heir." At this moment, Director Gao of the Vast Sea Group was so overcome with emotion he could barely contain it. He gripped Chen Fei's hand, at a loss for how to express his gratitude, his feelings overwhelming him.
This is my only son, and he's already a grown man. If he were to die, it would be the tragedy of a white-haired father burying his black-haired son. I can't bear the thought of being left without an heir at my age!
"Director Gao, you're too kind," Chen Fei said in a weak but modest voice. "I just happened to be here and was able to help. It's nothing worth mentioning."
"Director Gao, there's something else I must tell you," Dr. Liu suddenly interjected. "Although your Young Master's life has been saved, his leg suffered a comminuted fracture. I'm afraid it can't be saved. You need to be mentally prepared."
"His leg... can't be saved?"
Gao Zhinan froze. A complex, pained expression flickered in his eyes, but he forced a strained smile. "For this rotten kid to have survived is already an incredible blessing. Dr. Liu, don't worry. I understand, and I can handle it..."
"It's not that serious. The leg can be saved," Chen Fei suddenly said.
"It can be saved?" Dr. Liu was startled and stared at Chen Fei in disbelief. This is a comminuted fracture! In my professional opinion, it requires amputation! Yet now, he's saying it can be saved... Is that really possible?
It wasn't just him. The other doctors exchanged glances, their faces a picture of utter disbelief, as if they had seen a ghost. How could the leg possibly be saved under these circumstances? It was absolutely impossible!
"Mr. Chen, are you certain?" Gao Zhinan's breathing became ragged with tension as he spoke slowly. Of course, it would be for the best if my son's leg could be saved too... but is that really possible? If he can truly do it, it would be nothing short of a miracle.
At that thought, he bowed deeply to Chen Fei and said with the utmost solemnity, "Doctor Chen, if you can save my son's leg, I, Gao Zhinan, will owe you my life!"
His words stunned everyone present. This was Director Gao Zhinan of the Vast Sea Group, a man so influential that countless people dreamed of currying favor with him. Yet now, with such humility, he was declaring that he would owe a life debt. It was hard to believe the scene was real.
"Director Gao..."
Chen Fei was taken aback as well. His heart pounded in his chest and his breath hitched. Still, he shook his head and offered a pale smile. "That's enough, Director Gao. I understand you're worried about your son, but there's no need for this. I'm confident I can save his leg. It won't be a problem."
"Then thank you, Doctor Chen." Gao Zhinan let out a deep breath, and a look of relief washed over his distinguished features.
