Rebirth: General, Don't Mess Around!

The ward door was pushed open by Xia Jinyuan. Mr. Fu walked in first. His expression was a little cold, but he looked alright. His emotions were within the normal range.

Mr. Fu, who was walking over, saw Ye Jian sitting obediently by the bed and watching over the old man. His footsteps paused for a moment before he walked over. He asked Ye Jian softly, ”He hasn’t woken up yet?”

He lowered his body slightly and looked at the old man who hadn’t woken up. ”One hour has passed. Jinnian, ask the doctor to come and take a look at what’s going on.”

Li Jinnian immediately pressed the bell. Ye Jian stood up and gave the round stool to Mr. Fu.

”Sit. Your knees need to recover. You’ll go for a check-up tomorrow. If there’s any problem, you have to get yourself treated as soon as possible. You can’t endure ailments. You can’t be so casual just because you’re young.”

Mr. Fu didn’t let Ye Jian stand up. As he sighed, he placed one hand on Ye Jian’s shoulder and gestured for her to sit down. ”Check if there’s any obvious fluid accumulation. Even if it’s just very little…

”You have to take it seriously. You’re young now, but you won’t be able to tolerate the side effects when you’re old. When your grandfather was young, his knees had accumulated liquid and he didn’t treat it properly. Now, he’s suffering. His knees often hurt until he can’t sleep all night.”

His gentle voice was very serious. He looked at Ye Jian with a serious gaze. ”It’s not for other people but for yourself. You have to take good care of yourself. Do you understand?”

There was no expected scolding; there was only deep concern. Ye Jian felt a lump in her throat. She nodded lightly. ”Dad, don’t worry about me. I’ll take care of myself.”

”My silly girl.” Mr. Fu rubbed Ye Jian’s head gently. His sigh contained endless fatherly love.

Li Jinnian glanced at Xia Jinyuan. He saw that this man was still calm. There was nothing special about him. Li Jinnian narrowed his eyes. Could it be that… his uncle had agreed to the two’s relationship?

That was impossible.

The Fu family’s rules clearly stated that a man could marry when he was 20 years old, and a woman could marry when she was 18 years old. The daughters of the Fu family would have to wait until they were 18 years old to go on a blind date!

When he was in university, his grandfather told him that dating was not allowed in military school. He had to graduate and work for two years first before he could find a girlfriend.

His cousin dated Xia Jinyuan at the age of 16 or 17 and was still in military school. How could his uncle agree?

Xia Jinyuan saw Li Jinnian looking at him intently and looked up slightly. He gave a faint but calm smile.

The doctor was already here. After the examination, the doctor heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. ”There’s nothing abnormal about Old Fu. Because he’s old, his bodily functions are not as good as before. The surgery took a longer time and he was anesthetized twice, so it’ll take a longer time for him to wake up.

”But don’t worry, Old Fu is fine.”

That meant Old Master Fu would wake up at a later time.

As long as there were no other problems, they could be at ease.

Mr. Fu chatted with the doctor for a while more and personally sent him out of the ward. When he came back, he asked Ye Jian to rest. ”You still need to do a check-up tomorrow. It’s very late now. Go and rest first.

Your cousin and I will accompany the old master here.”

Ye Jian was unwilling. She shook her head and refused.

”Go and rest. Uncle Fu is worried enough about the old master. You can’t let him worry about you anymore.” Xia Jinyuan appeared and persuaded her gently. ”Go and rest. I’ll keep watch here. When the old master wakes up, I’ll call you immediately.”
