Chapter 1994 - 1967: Resign Yourself to Fate

Meanwhile, as Lu Tianxing, Qiu Zhengfeng, and others anxiously awaited news at the hospital, at the Eight Great Passes Villa.

Jiang Liufeng stood in the garden, hands behind his back, quietly gazing ahead.

Beside Jiang Liufeng, Cangwu stood upright, his face full of seriousness. He had already heard some rumors outside and just heard Jiang Liufeng tell him about Qiu Tianrui being assassinated, understanding well that this was a scheme aimed at Lu Tianxing, and it harbored great dangers.

"Cangwu, what do you think about this matter?" Jiang Liufeng suddenly turned around and asked Cangwu.

"It shouldn’t be the Heavenly God."

Cangwu paused momentarily before speaking, "If it were the Heavenly God, he wouldn’t resort to such schemes. Moreover, if the Heavenly God wanted to kill the young master, he would have done so when the young master went to Japan. After all, Japan is his stronghold, and there’s no easier place to kill the young master than in his own stronghold."

Pausing here, Cangwu continued, "If it’s not the Heavenly God, then the most likely suspects are the Yang Family or the Tang Family, as these are the two families that have always wanted the young master dead. Moreover, only they have the capability to do this. Besides them, I can’t think of any other force in China that could achieve this, no force that must have the young master dead."

Upon hearing Cangwu’s words, Jiang Liufeng’s gaze flickered slightly, and he said, "Cangwu, secretly investigate for me whether anyone has come from Beijing to Qin Island recently. Also, look into any movements from the Yang Family and the Tang Family. If any of their people dare to reach into Qin Island, do not hesitate; eliminate them directly."

With those finishing words, Jiang Liufeng emanated a fierce murderous intent, at this moment not minding opening the gates of carnage for his grandson, letting them recall what "North Spear" truly means.

Meanwhile, in the hospital, Lu Tianxing, Qiu Zhengfeng, and Qiu Yingrong were all standing at the door of the operating room. No one spoke, but their eyes were fixed on the entrance of the operating room, their expressions heavy as if at the crossroads of life, about to make a life-altering decision.

As time ticked away, with no idea how long had passed, the red light outside the operating room suddenly went dark.

Soon, the door of the operating room was pushed open from the inside.

Qiu Tianrui was lying on a moving stretcher, being wheeled out by a nurse.

Seeing Qiu Tianrui being wheeled out of the operating room, Lu Tianxing, Qiu Zhengfeng, and Qiu Yingrong hurried over, "Doctor, how is it? How did the surgery go."

This doctor seemed to know Qiu Zhengfeng. Upon hearing Qiu Zhengfeng’s words, he quickly removed his mask and looked respectfully at Qiu Zhengfeng, saying, "The patient’s will is very strong, far beyond my imagination. In addition, the wound on the patient’s chest did not hurt the heart, so I would say the surgery was quite successful..."

Before the doctor could finish speaking, Qiu Zhengfeng interrupted him, asking, "So you’re saying my grandson is okay?"

"No, Elder Qiu, that is not what I meant."

The doctor shook his head and said, "While the patient is indeed fortunate not to have injured the heart, the proximity was dangerously close. So, even though this surgery was quite successful, the patient’s injuries are severe. If it were an ordinary person, they might have died long ago. So, the patient is still in a critical phase, not yet out of danger..."

Before the doctor could finish, Qiu Zhengfeng interrupted him again, asking in a deep voice, "So you mean to say, whether my grandson will survive depends on his luck and is left to fate?"

"Precisely."

The doctor gently nodded, saying, "We can only do everything we can to rescue the patient, but whether he can get through this critical period depends on his own will, which we cannot influence. Of course, the best method is to say something at the patient’s bedside to stimulate his will to live; perhaps then he can successfully pass through the dangerous period. Moreover, as long as by this afternoon the patient’s condition doesn’t worsen, it can be confirmed that he has passed the critical period and will no longer be in life-threatening danger."

Upon hearing the doctor’s words, Qiu Zhengfeng’s body trembled violently, suppressing his voice as he spoke, "You mean to say, if my grandson can’t get through the critical period, it’s all doom and gloom, right?"

Upon hearing Qiu Zhengfeng’s words, the attending physician chose not to speak further, merely nodded slightly.

Seeing the attending physician’s nod, Qiu Zhengfeng’s expression changed dramatically as he felt a total blackout, his body nearly collapsing backward uncontrollably.

With Qiu Tianrui’s parents being deceased, Qiu Tianrui was the only male descendant of the Qiu Family. If anything else happened to Qiu Tianrui, then the Qiu Family would truly be cut off.

Seeing the wavering figure of Qiu Zhengfeng, Lu Tianxing and Qiu Yingrong’s expressions changed drastically. They hurried forward to support Qiu Zhengfeng from either side, "Elder Qiu, are you okay!"

The attending physician, standing beside Qiu Zhengfeng, also hurried forward, reaching out to pinch the ridge above Qiu Zhengfeng’s eyes.

A moment later, Qiu Zhengfeng slowly opened his eyes, his face brimming with sorrow, "Doctor, are there really no other solutions?"

"Elder Qiu, I’m sorry, I’ve done my best. Now, it’s all up to him. I hope you can understand."

Following his words, the attending physician deeply bowed to Qiu Zhengfeng before slowly walking away into the distance.

The nurse, meanwhile, was pushing Qiu Tianrui toward a nearby ward.

Watching Qiu Tianrui being wheeled into the ward, Qiu Zhengfeng felt as if all his strength had been drained, his whole body shaking uncontrollably.

"Elder Qiu, are you alright! How about you go back to rest first, and Miss Qiu and I will stay here to take care of Young Master Qiu."

"Yes, Grandpa, why not go back first? I’ll take care of Tianrui, everything will be fine," Qiu Yingrong also said.

"No... there’s no need. I’m fine; I’ll go see Tianrui first."

Qiu Zhengfeng gently waved his hand, looking completely lost as he made his way to Qiu Tianrui’s ward.

Watching Qiu Zhengfeng’s desolate silhouette, Lu Tianxing sighed deeply in his heart. If it wasn’t because of him, perhaps Qiu Tianrui wouldn’t have encountered this calamity.

"Tianxing, this has nothing to do with you. You don’t need to feel overly guilty," Qiu Yingrong softly comforted upon seeing Lu Tianxing’s expression.

"I know."

Lu Tianxing nodded lightly, taking a deep breath, "Let’s go see Young Master Qiu together."

"Mm!"

Qiu Yingrong nodded, saying no more as she followed behind Lu Tianxing toward Qiu Tianrui’s ward.
