"Director Gao, do you have anything to say now?"

Mu Yanluo looked at Gao Qian with a cold sneer and questioned.

"This... this..."

Gao Qian was sweating profusely and then stared intently at Jiang Feng: "How on earth did you do it?"

He still couldn't believe it. It was too absurd, completely unreasonable, and beyond his comprehension!

"If you dare say one more word, I'll make sure you live up to what you just barked like a dog!"

Jiang Feng looked at Gao Qian with an expressionless face. He had tolerated this pest long enough, and his patience was exhausted.

"Ah..."

Gao Qian was terrified by Jiang Feng's icy gaze, shivering uncontrollably, and fell to the ground in fright.

What kind of look was that?

It was as if he was being watched by a prehistoric beast, making one instinctively fear, dread, feel humble, and despair...

And the oppressive aura that Jiang Feng intentionally released overwhelmed Gao Qian, making it hard for him to breathe. His complexion turned ashen, like a sheet of wax paper!

"Pff!"

Suddenly, Gao Qian couldn't hold back and let out an embarrassing fart, followed by the sound of a vile and undeniable odor being released.

"Oh my god! You're... you're not human, you're a devil, a devil!!"

Screaming, Gao Qian scrambled up from the floor and dashed outside as if fireworks were shooting from his pants.

After this shocking blow, his spirit was utterly broken, and not only would this severely impact his career prospects in the future, but he'd also lose confidence and never dare to act arrogantly or boast again.

Mu Yanluo, with disdain, waved her delicate hand in front of her nose, unwilling to bother with such cowardly bullies anymore. She then looked affectionately at Jiang Feng and said, "Jiang Feng, when will my father wake up?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Shuisheng on the hospital bed suddenly coughed, moved with difficulty, seemingly about to wake.

"Amazing! Xiao Feng, you're truly amazing!! You're like Hua Tuo reborn. Now I understand why my Xiao Luo brought you back. You're a Divine Doctor!!"

Ruan Xiuning excitedly rambled, her voice trembling.

Jiang Feng shook his head calmly: "Check on the patient."

At this moment, Mu Shuisheng opened his eyes. He first looked around the hospital room in confusion, then said blankly, "Where is this? How did I get here...?"

"Shuisheng, you're awake, you're finally awake!!"

Ruan Xiuning rushed over with tears in her eyes.

"I..."

Mu Shuisheng was truly having difficulty remembering. It felt like there was a gap in his memory. He remembered having a headache and fainting at home, but then he knew nothing more.

"This is...?"

His eyes then fell on Jiang Feng, he asked in confusion.

"This is a friend Xiao Luo brought back from outside, named Xiao Feng. He's the one who cured you. Otherwise, you wouldn't have woken up. The doctors said they couldn't operate on you..."

Ruan Xiuning still felt lingering fear as she remembered, speaking with reddened eyes.

"Xiao... Xiao Luo?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Shuisheng looked toward Mu Yanluo: "You... you're Xiao Luo?"

"Dad!"

Mu Yanluo, already in tears, stepped forward and said: "It's me, I came back to see you! Your daughter's unfilial, letting you and mom suffer all these years..."

Mu Shuisheng became a bit emotional and struggled to sit up: "Daughter, come here, let dad take a look at you. You've changed so much now, we wouldn't recognize you on the street, your mom and I..."

Mu Yanluo, with tears in her eyes, came forward, letting Mu Shuisheng touch her face with his rough hands. Then, Mu Shuisheng cried too, with tears and laughter: "As long as you came back, it shows you haven't truly forgotten this home!"

"All these years, your mom and I never blamed you two. In our village, you and your brother would never have amounted to much, at best just continue farming. It's better to go out and see the world. You've truly become a city person now..."

In Mu Shuisheng's simple heart, city people were of a higher status, far superior to those in the countryside.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yanluo cried even more uncontrollably.

If Mu Shuisheng had blamed her, it would have been better, but his understanding made her conscience extremely guilty.

"Cough, cough, old man, I'm talking to you, don't be in such a rush to comfort your daughter. It's that young man who saved you, why aren't you saying something?"

Ruan Xiuning glared at Mu Shuisheng unhappily.

"Yes, yes, young man, thank you..."

Mu Shuisheng then remembered to thank Jiang Feng, nodding earnestly: "Young man, are you Xiao Luo's boyfriend? You truly stand out..."

"No, Dad! I've explained to mom, we're just ordinary friends. Please don't misunderstand..."

Mu Yanluo clarified helplessly once more.

But she found that no matter how she explained, her parents no longer believed her, instead becoming more convinced of her relationship with Jiang Feng.

At that point, she stealthily glanced at Jiang Feng and saw that he didn't seem angry, which put her mind at ease slightly.

"Xiao Feng, are you from Jiangdong? Do you have any family?" Mu Shuisheng couldn't help but start up the conversation.

"Dad!"

Mu Yanluo exclaimed in embarrassment: "Are you conducting a household registration check? You just woke up, stop talking for now, and rest!"

"Uh..."

Mu Shuisheng saw his daughter was a bit upset, so he had to awkwardly stop, chuckling while avoiding any more questions.

"Jiang Feng, can my dad get out of bed now? Can we be discharged?" Mu Yanluo turned to Jiang Feng and asked.

"He should be able to."

Jiang Feng nodded. The Devouring Sky Demon Qi not only cleared the blood clots and hematoma but also had nourishing effects. Otherwise, Mu Shuisheng wouldn't have woken up so soon and recovered so well.

However, he didn't rush the mother and daughter to handle the discharge procedures, instead asking Mu Shuisheng: "Uncle Mu, there's something I need you to answer honestly. Have you offended anyone?"

"Hmm?"

Mu Shuisheng and Ruan Xiuning exchanged glances. Mu Shuisheng replied reflexively, "No! Xiao Feng, you don't know, I'm an honest and straightforward person, easy to get along with in the village. I've never offended anyone or held any grudges."

Ruan Xiuning also nodded, affirming that they had always lived honestly, even if without great ability.

"Then think carefully if, during the time you were sick, or their times, you encountered any bad luck?" Jiang Feng asked again.

Hearing this, even Mu Yanluo looked at Jiang Feng in confusion.

But she didn't question him, knowing there must be a reason for his inquiry.

"If you put it that way..."

Mu Shuisheng thought for a moment and said: "Yes, since last year, I've been incredibly unlucky. Sometimes I'd nearly sprain my ankle walking down the road, another time I almost slipped into the river out of nowhere, and once, while driving the tractor home, I tried to avoid a street fight, but I was almost injured anyway... Then my health deteriorated, and my headaches started about a year ago..."

"A year ago?"

Jiang Feng furrowed his brows and asked promptly: "Do you remember exactly when? Can you recall?"

"Xiao Feng, why are you asking?" Mu Shuisheng didn't understand.

"Just answer me first."

"Uh, it seemed to start when Wei Yongbo became the village director and began renovating his family's ancestral grave on the mountain..." Mu Shuisheng recalled.
