Chapter 413 Unable to Use the Tongue Blossom Lotus Card (Why Is It so Difficult to Come up with a Nickname? Congratulations to Qimeng)
This time, Wei Xingyue met the old man smoothly.
Of course, this so-called smoothness meant that no one turned her back. When the old man knew that someone had gone to the hospital and picked up Wei Xingyue, he no longer needed to avoid Wei Xingyue. His answer was already determined.
The old man came back very late, so Wei Xingyue also waited until very late.
When he saw Wei Xingyue, the old man just nodded indifferently and said, "Coming?"
Wei Xingyue said respectfully: "Godfather, I want to talk to you alone."
The old man frowned and said, "Xingyue, I made it very clear to you before. It doesn't mean that I will change my mind if you faint for a few days."
"I know this, but please give me a chance to talk alone."
The old man nodded and said, "Come to the study with me."
After entering the study, Wei Xingyue carefully closed the door, feeling uneasy because she didn't know how to convince the old man that Shi Lei could actually cure his third son.
"If you have anything to say, tell me quickly. Well, Xingyue, that boy who went to the hospital with your sister is the one you like, right?"
Wei Xingyue did not hide anything and nodded: "Yes, he is the person I like. Moreover, he is also the person who can save the third brother."
The old man raised his eyebrows and said: "Save your third brother? Xingyue, you should know what disease your third brother has, right? Genetic defects, resulting in extremely poor resistance, and he suffered from blood cancer seven or eight years ago. There are so many in the world All the experts are helpless, they are just trying to help your third brother survive in this world for as long as possible, but you tell me that someone can save him?"
Wei Xingyue nodded affirmatively: "He won't lie to me, and he doesn't dare to joke with his own life. Since he told me that there is a way to keep the third brother alive, then there must be a way."
The old man shook his head with some disappointment. Just when he wanted to stop it, Wei Xingyue said: "Godfather, he just wants to meet you and talk about it in person. What if he really has a way to save the third brother? The doctor doesn't They also say that we can only wait for a miracle, why can't he be that miracle?"
"Okay, tell me how to save him."
Wei Xingyue shook her head and said, "I don't know. He just said that he has a way. But for the specific situation, he must negotiate with you face to face."
Of course the old man didn't believe it. How could he believe such a ridiculous thing at such an advanced age?
"Xingyue, I understand your desire to save your father, but let me tell you, even if you can really cure the third child's disease and let him live like a normal person, I can't risk the world's scorn to save you. Father."
Wei Xingyue's face showed a trace of sadness, and she said: "Xingyue dare not have such extravagant hopes anymore. My eldest brother is already on the countdown of his life, and so is my father. Moreover, my father has said that he has decided to give up resistance. He The only hope is that Bodhi and I can live well. Didn't you also promise that you could help me and Bodhi?"
"I've made it very clear to you what the premise is. Xingyue, let you marry into my family, firstly to become a famous teacher, and secondly to satisfy the third child's last wish in the last stage of his life. In my life, I feel the most The one I owe is the third child..."
"Then you should let Shi Lei give it a try. Maybe from now on you will no longer have to feel indebted to Third Brother. You can make up for everything. Godfather, give it a try. There is no cost. If you succeed, everyone will be happy. If you fail, Third brother has nothing to lose. If it really fails, I will marry you whenever you want me to marry third brother."
The old man was moved after all, not for anything else but because of the guilt he felt towards his third son. For thirty years, he has never been able to live like a normal person.
After pondering for a moment, the old man raised his wrist and looked at his watch and said: "Let him get here in fifteen minutes, and I will give him another fifteen minutes. If he arrives one minute late, I will give him one less minute. I don't have it now." Promise you anything, I’m just giving him a chance to convince me.”
Wei Xingyue was overjoyed and hurriedly took out her mobile phone and called Shi Lei: "Tou Shi, where are you now?"
Shi Lei smiled and said, "Did the old man agree to see me?"
"Yes, but my godfather said he would only give you half an hour in total, fifteen minutes to get here, and fifteen minutes to talk. If you are late, it will be deducted from the talking time."
"I should be not far from his house. I'm not too sure about the specific situation. I asked you about the approximate location of your old man's house at that time, and I wandered here in the afternoon."
Wei Xingyue immediately said to the old man: "He is nearby."
The old man nodded, picked up the landline phone on the desk, dialed a number, and then ordered: "There is a boy in his early twenties nearby. His name is Shi Lei. Bring him to my study."
Shi Lei was indeed strolling nearby, but it was quite a distance away. The old man lives in a compound, and this compound is on a mountain. The road from the compound to the foot of the mountain is completely under military control and no one is allowed to enter.
The old man's call was to the soldiers at the foot of the mountain, and those soldiers had actually noticed Shi Lei for a long time. This place itself is considered a scenic spot, but this mountain road is blocked. It is normal for people to come and go nearby. But Shi Lei was basically wandering around alone, which inevitably made people pay extra attention. Even if there hadn't been this call and if Shi Lei didn't leave after a while, those soldiers would probably have to take necessary measures.
Two armed soldiers appeared in front of Shi Lei. After saluting, they asked, "Who are you?"
Shi Lei smiled and said, "My surname is Shi and my name is Shi Lei. Did that old man ask you to come to me?"
The two soldiers looked at each other, nodded, and then said to Shi Lei: "We need to conduct a comprehensive examination on you before we can let you in."
Shi Lei spread his hands and said, "Whatever."
Two soldiers took him to the control area and conducted a strict inspection, which was even stricter than the security inspection at the airport. They finally confirmed that Shi Lei could not have any offensive weapons on him. What made Shi Lei collapse the most was that they put Shi Lei on him. Everything that could be used as a weapon was taken away, including cell phones. In this way, if you want to use the Tongue Blossom Lotus card, you can only hope that this card can be activated super remotely.
After the inspection, two soldiers drove Shi Lei to the entrance of the small courtyard where the old man lived.
The guard at the entrance of the courtyard also checked with the old man again before leading Shi Lei in.
Entering the small building where the old man lived, Shi Lei was no longer as calm as before. Although the guns in the hands of those soldiers were cold and terrifying, they were far less exciting than the old man he was about to meet. He was about to meet a leader with the prefix "国", and Shi Lei was worried that his legs would become weak soon.
The nanny knocked on the study door and invited Shi Lei in.
Shi Lei adjusted his mood and walked into the door. Then, he saw Wei Xingyue sitting aside, and behind the large desk, the familiar face he had only seen on the news network. Silver hair and bright head, he is not angry but has authority.
"Xingyue, you go out first. I'll talk to him alone." The old man spoke. When Wei Xingyue walked past Shi Lei, she squeezed his hand gently to signal him not to be nervous.
After the door closed again, the old man said: "Young man, you only have fifteen minutes to make me believe you."
In this case, even if the tongue-splitting lotus card can be activated remotely, I'm afraid it won't work.
This is the seventh chapter update of Why is it so difficult to give the Silver Alliance a nickname?
