Gong Shaoying was standing before the operating table. When he saw her, he summoned her over.

  “Alice.”


  “Yes.”


  “This is my grandson. I’ll leave him to you. You must save him!”


  Alice was stunned for some time. It was only when Gong Shaoying’s cold gaze fell on her that she hurriedly nodded. “I understand.”


  She dared not disobey Gong Shaoying’s orders.

  Before she arrived, her subordinates had already carried out a series of detailed tests on the child. Besides a few external injuries, a moderate concussion, and slight intracranial damage, the child’s various functions could be said to be very poor.

  How poor?

  If these conditions did not improve, he would not live past the age of 20.

  This was not an exaggeration.

  The medical elites at Hurricane Group’s headquarters were definitely the best in the world.

  Basically, this was a conservative estimate they made. 20 years was a relatively optimistic situation.

  The various functions of his biological system were not optimistic, especially his organs. Youyou’s heart was naturally fragile, weak to the point of failure, and his constitution was not satisfactory.

  Compared to Little Yichen, from the time of birth, Youyou’s physical condition had never been very good. Even though it had improved over years of meticulous treatment, the improvements were quite negligible.

  Alice picked up the report and flipped through a few pages. She said with a grave expression, “He has a serious heart issue.”


  “What is it?”


  “Congenital dysfunction.”


  Gong Shaoying’s heart sank when he heard this.

  “According to Gong Jie…” Alice said carefully, “This child was born prematurely. He was born before his due date. His brother’s physique is very strong, on the other hand. It’s probably because he took away nutrients from his mother’s body that this child had developed malnourishment.”


  There was a hint of coldness in Gong Shaoying’s eyes as he said, “You already knew about this child’s existence.”


  Alice’s heart skipped a beat and she did not speak for a moment.

  Gong Shaoying’s tone became even more dangerous. “The two of you hid it from me?”


  Alice responded with a shaking voice. “Sorry! I didn’t mean to hide it!”


  “Forget it, forget it!” Gong Shaoying waved his hand expressionlessly and said coldly, “I know, this was all his idea!”


  Alice kept silent.

  “You said that he has a heart issue. Given this, is there a corresponding treatment plan?”


  Alice looked up. After hesitating for a long time, she said slowly, “It’s not that I don’t have it. It’s just that I need some time.”


  Gong Shaoying frowned. “How long is a little time?”


  “Five years.”


  Alice continued, “Because we don’t know the extent, we can’t say for sure right now. However, there are conditions that can be improved.”


  “Does he need a heart transplant?”


  “No.” Alice said bluntly, “Even if it’s a heart transplant, no matter how brilliant the medical team is, his life expectancy will be no more than 10 years after the transplant. This is already the highest record in the medical world.”


  “Oh?” Gong Shaoying turned around, looked at her, and said slowly, “I’ll leave this child to you! You must give your greatest effort!”


  “Roger!”


  “However, there’s something else you must remember. This child is with me now. You are not to tell anyone about this!”


  After pausing for a moment, the man said meaningfully, “That includes Gong Jie!”


  Alice hesitated and said, “But… if this child wakes up and wants to return to his mother’s side, no one can stop him from leaving this place, given he’s an intelligent boy.”
