Pei Jinye stood at the end of the crowd, listening to the dialogue between the Tang Family and the doctors.
The other party clearly knew the strength of the Tang Family, so they spoke very politely.
Tang Huoyang tugged at Pei Jinye’s sleeve, “My dad is here, do you want to go say hello?”
“Sure.”
It was true that Tang Huoyang’s father and his third uncle Tang Yulou were not cut from the same cloth; those unaware would probably never associate the two as brothers.
If Tang Yulou had the air of a graceful gentleman, then Tang Huoyang’s father more resembled the overlord of a mountain.
Not tall, around 165cm, he looked stocky and robust, with very bright eyes that gave off an exceptionally astute impression.
Old Tang, upon seeing Tang Huoyang behaving restlessly like someone with ADHD in such a setting, was about to glare at him, but then he heard Tang Huoyang introduce Pei Jinye in a soft voice.
Old Tang’s expression immediately brightened, “So, you’re Jinye. I often hear Huoyang mention you; you’ve been a great help during this time.”
Old Tang extended his hand.
Pei Jinye humbly reached out, neither servile nor overbearing, “You’re too kind, Uncle Tang.”
“Ah…” When Old Tang thought of the third brother in the operating room, he couldn’t help but sigh, “It’s truly heartbreaking… Huoyang, you stay with Jinye. I’ll go talk to the doctors.”
Old Tang nodded towards Pei Jinye as a gesture of respect.
After watching Old Tang leave, Pei Jinye and Tang Huoyang also noticed several young members of the Tang Family of similar age approaching in the corridor.
“They’re relatives from my family’s side, but because of my dad’s explosive temper, except for the third uncle, he’s on average terms with the others, so I’m not that close with these peers either.”
Having said that.
A few young people walked over.
The oldest among them, about 24 or 25, already faintly possessed the temperament of a superior, but it was hard to tell if it was genuine or just superficial.
He came up acting all serious and spoke to Tang Huoyang about something.
As for Pei Jinye…
Everyone glanced over, not recognizing him, and thus didn’t pay him much mind.
After all, they knew all those second-generation rich with higher fame than their Tang Family in Da Peng City.
Tang Huoyang, not sure what was said to him, looked quite upset and pulled Pei Jinye away from the corridor.
“What’s wrong?” Pei Jinye looked over.
Tang Huoyang shook his head, “I’m annoyed with them, they really think too highly of themselves… With the third uncle ill, probably it’s those few families that are the happiest…”
Seeing Pei Jinye’s confusion.
Tang Huoyang explained in a low voice, “Back in the day, the Tang Family can be said to have risen to the next level under the third uncle’s leadership. But since the third uncle fell ill, the enterprise of the Tang Family has gradually been transferred into the hands of my second uncle and seventh uncle. My dad was rebellious since he was young, and got along best with the third uncle, even coming close to joining that Tomb Robbing Organization at one point. If it wasn’t for my mom being in the hospital back then, my dad might have gone too. It was during that time that my dad started his own business in real estate, which was separate from the Tang enterprise. So when the third uncle fell, my dad didn’t get involved and even contributed quite a sum for the third uncle’s illness, but as for those few families…”
Tang Huoyang shook his head.
Some people just look too unsightly when they eat… and to think they are family.
Old Tang had more than once cursed at them, pointing at their noses.
Before leaving.
Pei Jinye memorized the location of the third uncle’s ward.
After parting with Tang Huoyang.
In the middle of the night.
He quietly returned to the third uncle’s ward.
While the third aunt went to get some water, he quickly hypnotized the third uncle.
Hoping to glean some information from his dreams.
But unfortunately…
Tonight, the third uncle’s dreams were all mundane scenes of romantic affection.
Finding it uninteresting.
He hastily concluded the affair.
And just waited to return the next day.
A breeze blew through.
The curtains in the ward gently swayed.
The third aunt, holding a thermos as she approached the door, was slightly perplexed, “Didn’t I close the window just now?”
She put the thermos down and closed the window.
However, the third uncle suddenly murmured a woman’s name.
The third aunt, turning her back on him, stood still.
Then she listlessly sat beside the third uncle’s bed.
Early in the morning, the crisp chirping of birds attracted the glances of passersby.
Brother Bi looked at Pei Jinye incredulously, “Instead of properly healing, you’re in such a rush to train?”
“It wasn’t a serious injury anyway, and walking around a bit won’t do any harm,” Pei Jinye said nonchalantly. “A three-day break with nothing to do is suffocating.”
Brother Bi was left speechless.
“I wish I could take a break…”
Pei Jinye turned, giving him an up-and-down look.
Brother Bi, puzzled, asked, “What’s up?”
“Do you want to pick up a rock by the roadside later, and I can give it a try?” Pei Jinye pointed at his own scalp, “Just need to stitch it with three stitches.”
Brother Bi:
But he was indeed somewhat tempted.
Not sure whether it was fear of pain, he still didn’t dare take up the banter.
“Was there something you wanted to ask? It seemed quite urgent from your phone call?”
“Maybe you know, Brother Bi, about some techniques for Bone Forging?” Pei Jinye had considered asking Teacher Chang as well.
But his suspicions about Teacher Chang hadn’t yet dissipated, and he didn’t want to reveal his talent so quickly in front of Teacher Chang for the time being.
“Bone Forging?” Brother Bi, upon hearing this, was first stunned then realized what was being asked and suddenly blurted out, “You didn’t go through the Exfoliate, did you?”
“Yeah,” Pei Jinye didn’t hide it; this was already explicitly stated in his personal report, which not many had access to read.
Brother Bi looked puzzled, “If you’ve already gone through Exfoliate, why bother with Bone Forging? This is entirely enough.”
