Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System

This time, even Lin Yi, who was usually fearless, was taken aback.

Goodness, don't lose your cool now!

Lin Yi was absolutely sure that if he weren't standing right in front of the old man, these guys would have pulled the trigger without hesitation.

Damn it, isn't this a case of good intentions being misunderstood?

He tried to save someone out of kindness, but ended up being treated like this...

But there's nothing that can be done, for he is selfless.

It doesn't matter whether this old man is Elder Master Ouyang or just a random elderly man who collapsed on the street.

Lin Yi would never ignore it.

Of course, what to do about the current situation is more important than discussing these things!

This stubborn old man hadn't liked him to begin with, and now he's annoyed because of the few slaps he gave him on the back.

Who knows if the old man might just order for him to be locked up out of displeasure?

"Cough cough cough~"

But right at that critical moment, the old man in front of Lin Yi suddenly started coughing.

Meanwhile, Ouyang Lei had already rushed over to the old man and was helping him with Dr. Lu.

Although he didn't say anything, his gaze at Lin Yi was complex.

The guards by the side also started marching over towards Lin Yi.

They weren't far off, only a few steps away.

Seeing the guards about to pounce, Lin Yi prepared to make a run for it.

But the old man, centered amid the crowd, suddenly spoke again:

"Enough! All of you, leave. Xiao Lei, take Lin Xiaozhi to the living room and wait for me!"

After saying this, he allowed Dr. Lu to take care of him.

But as he lay down, through the gaps of the crowd, a fleeting, peculiar glint passed deep in the old man's eyes as he looked at Lin Yi.

'This kid is truly something else. Alas, it seems my granddaughter really has no fate with him.'

Thinking this, he closed his eyes and let the medical staff use various instruments on him.

As for Lin Yi, with the old man's orders, leaving was impossible.

This left Lin Yi, who wanted to do good deeds anonymously, feeling helpless.

In a matter of minutes, Lin Yi had already gone to await in the living room.

The old man outside was still undergoing examination.

Just as Dr. Lu was about to instruct the nurse to use the instruments again, the old man, who was resting with closed eyes, suddenly spoke.

Though his eyes remained shut, his tone was full of authority:

"Since there's nothing wrong, let's leave it at that."

His words instantly made Dr. Lu swallow back what he was about to say.

Yet, the shock on his face didn't diminish a bit.

After all, it was simply unbelievable; the old man had been on the brink just now, but now he seemed strangely fine?

Could it really be related to those random slaps Lin Yi gave?

That's impossible!

Even if it were some Immortal Pill, it shouldn't work this fast!

But since the old man had spoken, continuing the examination was not an option.

Now, all they could do was observe the old man's (ps: to avoid censorship, "leader" is also directly replaced with "old man") condition.

"Old man, do you feel there's anything wrong?"

Eventually, Dr. Lu directly asked the old man.

The old man opened his eyes, sat up, then stood to stretch.

Not only that, as if one stretch wasn't enough, he kicked his legs and twisted his body!

This sight left everyone in a daze, especially Ouyang Lei, who had just escorted Lin Yi to the living room and returned; he was utterly stunned.

The old man hadn't been this spry in years!

After snapping out of it and seeing the astonishment on Dr. Lu and the others' faces, Ouyang Lei suddenly burst into tears.

Immediately, a sense of melancholy filled his heart.

In his view, the old man's vitality was undoubtedly a death throe.

His mind flooded with memories of his grandfather training him as a child.

The more he thought about it, the sadder he became.

Tears flowed uncontrollably down his face.

But just as he was about to cry out loud in sorrow, he saw the blurred figure in front of him move nimbly, just as his grandfather used to when he was a child.

In the next moment, with a resounding slap, just like when he was young, the old man gave him a hard smack on the head:

"You idiot, what are you crying for! Your grandpa isn't dead yet!"

The slap only made Ouyang Lei cry even harder.

Undeniably, the force was almost the same as what his grandpa used to deliver.

This is definitely not something Grandpa's current body could muster up.

"Boo hoo, Grandpa, hit me again, hit me hard..."

As he spoke, even the iron-willed Ouyang Lei couldn't hold back his tears.
