At the start, I tricked the school beauty, and ended up with twins?-Chapter 405 - 395: Your Hand, The Hand of a Future Academician
Chapter 405: Chapter 395: Your Hand, The Hand of a Future Academician
“You just scared me to death on the ring, I thought you were really going to be knocked down by that Hu Yang!”
“Are you hurt? Let me see, oh, your hand is all swollen…”
“And that Hu Yang’s old man, coming in with a dark face, planning to bully others with his authority, just because he’s in charge of the radar, right!? It was clearly his son who provoked things first!”
On the way back, Lin Xinyue chattered non-stop around Gu Yu.
She had felt terribly stifled in the combat room earlier, being surrounded by bare-chested burly men, she simply felt too embarrassed to speak up.
She caressed Gu Yu’s swollen hand with heartache, tears already swirling in her eyes.
“I am invincible! From the moment I stepped onto the ring, my victory was destined!”
Gu Yu pulled his hand out of Lin Xinyue’s and playfully flexed his solid muscles in front of her.
Lin Xinyue was indeed amused by his clownish antics, but she couldn’t help her tears from falling down in a mix of laughter and crying, looking even more ridiculous than Gu Yu.
“Alright, I’m fine. I merely forgot to bring my protective gear this time. Besides, it’s just a bit of swelling on my hand, Hu Yang is in a much worse state than me.”
Gu Yu reached out his hand to wipe away the teardrops on Lin Xinyue’s face, comforting her.
“That Hu Yang is so annoying, utterly arrogant and disrespectful to others.”
Lin Xinyue said bitterly, already regarding Hu Yang as an unforgivable enemy in her heart.
Anyone who harmed Gu Yu, she would never forgive!
“Okay, okay, it’s time to go back and rest.”
Gu Yu put his arm on her shoulder, hugging her as they walked back.
“Hey, what’s going on? Why is this delicate beauty crying? Did this stinky kid Gu Yu bully you?”
Passing by a corridor entrance, they happened upon Dai Zhengguo and two other old men also preparing to return to their rooms.
Dai Zhengguo quickly noticed the unchecked tears on Lin Xinyue’s face, and immediately glared at Gu Yu with a stern face.
Gu Yu felt incredibly embarrassed and hurriedly explained, “How could I bully Xinyue? I cherish and protect her so much I’m always afraid she’ll melt! She was just upset because I got hurt and couldn’t help crying.”
“What? You got hurt? What happened?!”
No sooner had Gu Yu finished speaking than Dai Zhengguo suddenly shouted, looking extremely anxious.
He acted as if Gu Yu was his own son.
After sizing Gu Yu up and down, he didn’t find anything particularly wrong with him, and his gaze grew suspicious once more.
“You didn’t actually get into a fight with that Hu Yang, did you? But you don’t look like you’re injured?”
He suddenly recalled a previous meeting where Gu Yu had had a confrontation with another young man, whom he recognized as the son of the radar chief, Hu Feng.
Every time he boarded the Ark, he would see Hu Yang causing trouble everywhere, truly a thorn on the side of the ship.
He had no idea how Gu Yu ended up in conflict with Hu Yang, initially thinking it was just a verbal dispute, but now it seemed they had likely come to blows in the combat room just now.
As a regular on the Ark, he was of course aware of the combat room’s existence.
“It’s really nothing, just a bit of an injury to my hand, it’ll be better by morning.”
Gu Yu nodded, implying that Dai Zhengguo need not worry too much.
But upon hearing his words, Dai Zhengguo exclaimed in shock: “What??! Your hand is injured?”
Gu Yu and Lin Xinyue both couldn’t help but cover their ears, unable to imagine how an old man could produce such a piercingly high pitch, louder than a rooster’s crow.
Dai Zhengguo seemed to have suddenly gone mad as he rushed over and grabbed Gu Yu’s wrist. As he looked at Gu Yu’s swollen hand, his eyes trembled.
“It’s really nothing, Old Dai, don’t get worked up…” Gu Yu didn’t know why Old Dai was suddenly so anxious but continued to explain anyway.
But Old Dai glared at him furiously, his old teeth gritting with anger, and said, word by word, “Do you, or do you not, realize how precious the hand is for a surgeon?”
“Your hand is your career, your future, the hand that wields the scalpel is also the patient’s safeguard for life!” Dai Zhengguo was so furious that his face turned red, feeling his blood pressure might shoot up.
“Uh… just a bit swollen, it won’t affect anything.”
At this point, Gu Yu finally understood why Old Dai was so worked up, it was because he was worried that an injury to his hand would hinder surgical treatments.
“You say it won’t affect anything and it won’t? Sigh, you’re still too young, always rushing into things!” Dai Zhengguo shot back with a single sentence and then heaved a deep sigh.
Seeing the worry on Old Dai’s face warmed Gu Yu’s heart; although he had repeatedly refused to take over from this old man, Old Dai still cared for him unconditionally.
And he even often fulfilled some of his rather unreasonable demands.
At this moment, Old Dai was like an elder concerned with every aspect of his life.
“It’s really nothing, I’ll just apply some bruise ointment when I get back, don’t worry, the bones are not injured.”
Dai Zhengguo, however, ignored his words, examined his fingers one by one, using his experience as a surgeon to help diagnose whether Gu Yu’s phalanges were injured or not.
After a short while, he finally let go of Gu Yu’s hand, and sighed with relief.
“Good, the bones are indeed fine.”
Before Gu Yu could speak, he continued, “You boy, you’re really reckless, you don’t take care of your hands at all! Do you know you might very well become an Academician in the future because of these hands?”
Dai Zhengguo looked at Gu Yu with an expression of frustrated disappointment.
“Uh… Academician…”
Gu Yu was startled and his expression suddenly turned somewhat weird.
“Yes, Academician!” Seeing his inexplicably weird expression, Dai Zhengguo nodded seriously.
“No, I mean, Academician Hou!”
Gu Yu quickly shook his head, then pointed behind him at Hou Yun who had walked up behind Gu Yu.
“What are you guys talking about? Little Dai, I really haven’t seen you in a long time. You ran off so quickly in the meeting room just now; I didn’t even get the chance to stop you.”
Hou Yun chuckled cheerfully as he inserted himself amongst the group. Although of advanced age, his spirits remained youthful.
When standing, he also kept his back perfectly straight.
A lively little old man, he was currently expressing his grievances to Dai Zhengguo.
Just as Dai Zhengguo had assumed a senior’s airs in front of Gu Yu, his demeanor became much more restrained upon seeing Hou Yun.
In front of Hou Yun, he too was a junior.
“Mr. Hou, why have you come over? You should be resting earlier.”
Dai Zhengguo asked cautiously about Hou Yun’s intentions.
If Gu Yu might be an Academician in the future, then Hou Yun was certainly a bona fide Academician right now!!
What’s more, Hou Yun was also somewhat of a mentor to him.
“Hehe, I’m here to look for someone.” Hou Yun smiled casually, then his gaze fell on Gu Yu.
