52: He fainted again! The cabinet urgently convened a meeting of the ten elder statesmen!
The moment Cheng Yong pressed the red button.
In almost less than a minute.
The sound of hurried footsteps echoed outside the ward.
The male doctor running at the front was even barefoot.
He wasn't wearing shoes.
It was clear how urgently he had rushed over.
He quickly pulled out the stethoscope from his pocket.
With a serious expression, he pressed it against Lu Feng's chest.
Several doctors following closely behind began hooking Lu Feng up to instruments.
It wasn't until Lu Feng felt his entire body covered in all sorts of messy things.
That these doctors finally stopped.
They still held various small instruments in their hands.
These things were in Lu Feng's blind spot of knowledge.
He didn't recognize them either.
Sun Qing pursed her lips tightly and didn't say a word.
Cheng Yong's brow was furrowed into a deep 'river' shape.
Inside the massive ward, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Lu Feng felt there was no need for such tension.
After thinking for a moment, he spoke up and asked,
"Sun Qing!"
"How is the work on the reactor going over at Elder Ji's side?"
To his surprise, Sun Qing directly glared at Lu Feng.
She extended a slender finger to her lips.
She made a shushing gesture toward Lu Feng.
She even made a shushing sound.
Signaling Lu Feng not to speak.
Lest he interfere with the doctors' judgment.
Lu Feng was momentarily caught between laughter and tears.
He simply closed his eyes slightly.
Letting these people do what they needed to do.
Sure enough, after at least half an hour had passed.
The lead doctor.
That is, the male doctor who had run over barefoot.
Finally let out a long, slow breath.
He said in a deep voice,
"From what we can see so far."
"The patient's body is very healthy."
"It should be due to staying up late for a long time and not eating on time."
"This led to a temporary lack of oxygen to the brain."
"Resulting in the fainting spell."
"However, based on the CT scan we did earlier."
"The patient's brain is abnormally active."
"I don't know if there's a connection between the two."
"But we cannot completely rule it out."
The male doctor's choice of words was very cautious.
He appeared extremely rigorous, showing how much importance was placed on Lu Feng's health!
"Therefore, we recommend hospitalization for a period of observation!"
"No!"
"No!"
These two voices rang out simultaneously.
One was Lu Feng.
The other was Sun Qing.
Sun Qing said to the doctor,
"Chief Engineer Lu's current situation is very special."
"You should also know that the reason you are here on standby at all times."
"Is because Lu Feng is doing research here."
"If he is hospitalized, the research over there will be delayed."
Seeing that Sun Qing had actually said everything he wanted to say.
Lu Feng couldn't help but sigh with emotion in his heart.
As expected of my good assistant.
The doctor sighed.
"From the current data, all other indicators of the patient's body are very good."
"He can be discharged."
"But he must make sure to rest!!"
Lu Feng immediately scrambled out of the hospital bed.
Still wearing his white hospital gown.
He started walking out.
Sun Qing shouted from behind,
"Where are you going?"
Lu Feng didn't look back. "To the Divine Light Base."
"No!"
This time, the one speaking was Cheng Yong!
Lu Feng turned back in surprise.
What did Cheng Yong mean by 'no'?
He then heard Cheng Yong say,
"In view of your current situation."
"I reported it to General Qin at the first opportunity."
"General Qin then reported your news to The Cabinet."
"The Elders held a meeting and unanimously decided."
"To give you a week's holiday!"
"Elder Ji will take over things at the Divine Light Base for now."
"Furthermore, Elder Ji has already reported the progress to Elder Sun."
"Currently, everything is proceeding in an orderly fashion according to your arrangements!"
"We just have to wait for the time to come!"
"What?" Lu Feng shouted.
"Cheng Yong, you're getting more and more used to taking initiative on your own, aren't you?"
Cheng Yong showed an apologetic expression.
"I had no choice."
"Chief Engineer Lu, this isn't the first time you've fainted."
"Counting it up, this is already the third time."
Hearing this, Sun Qing's head nodded non-stop.
She clearly agreed completely.
Cheng Yong continued,
"Right now, your health is the most important thing."
"This was decided by The Elders of The Cabinet in their meeting."
"And..."
At this point, a solemn look appeared on Cheng Yong's face.
"When I accepted this mission, I was told."
"Your body, Lu Feng, does not just belong to you."
"Oh??" Lu Feng was completely bewildered by these words.
"My body isn't my own body? Does it belong to you then?"
Cheng Yong suddenly stood up straight.
His gaze was fixed forward.
"Chief Engineer Lu."
"Your body is currently the Dragon Kingdom's most precious wealth."
"So your health is the top priority."
"It is more important than my own, and more important than everyone else present!"
Lu Feng curled his lip.
He hadn't expected that whether or not he took a vacation.
Would actually require a Meeting of the Ten Elders of The Cabinet.
He couldn't help but click his tongue.
Just a few months ago.
When he was still worrying about which university he could get into.
He could never have imagined that such a day would come.
After a moment of silence.
Lu Feng said,
"One week is too long."
"The research over there is also urgent."
"I can't be away for too long."
"So I think three days is enough."
Cheng Yong grinned.
"Agreed!"
"The Great Elder is truly amazing."
"He even guessed exactly what you were going to say, Chief Engineer Lu."
"Oh? The Great Elder guessed I would say that?"
Cheng Yong laughed.
"General Qin told me with a laugh when he called."
He mimicked the Great Elder's tone.
"That kid Lu Feng definitely won't be willing to take such a long vacation."
"So we'll say a week first."
"He'll definitely bargain it down to three days."
"Then we'll grant it."
"But we must make sure that kid Lu Feng takes care of his health."
After Cheng Yong finished his imitation.
Everyone present couldn't help but laugh.
Lu Feng sighed.
"I've been so busy all this time."
"Suddenly being on vacation, I don't even know what to do."
Sun Qing added a comment.
"Chief Engineer Lu, have you forgotten that your mother asked you to come home for sweet and sour pork ribs?"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Lu Feng instantly felt a wave of hunger hit his stomach.
It growled loudly.
As if it had received some kind of signal.
"Good!" Lu Feng laughed.
"Then we'll all go back and eat the sweet and sour pork ribs my mom makes."
Sun Qing's face was full of smiles.
"I want to taste Auntie's sweet and sour pork ribs too."
"I heard that as long as you eat the ribs Auntie makes."
"You can become as smart as Chief Engineer Lu!"
Cheng Yong immediately showed a look of longing.
"In that case, I'll have to eat a bit more."
Sun Qing took out her phone.
"Then I'll call Aunt Zhao right now."
Lu Feng quickly stopped her.
"Don't call."
"It's only fun if we go for a surprise attack!"
"Alright!" Sun Qing's mischievous side was also piqued.
She really wanted to see their reaction then!
...217 Hualan Street.
Jianguo Fruit Shop.
Zhao Lan carried a lunch box into the shop.
"Old Lu, hurry up and eat."
"Don't say I don't make you good food every day."
"Did you see that?"
Zhao Lan pointed at the lunch box.
"The sweet and sour pork ribs I used to make for our son."
"Now I've brought some for you to eat too."
Lu Jianguo was cleaning the fresh fruit that had just arrived.
He was arranging the round watermelons in order.
Hearing this, he wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Good stuff!"
"Then put it there for now."
"I'll go eat after I finish this busy spell."
Zhao Lan said from the side,
"I told you long ago not to do this anymore."
"With the work our son is doing now, so much money comes in every month."
"Why are you still keeping this fruit shop open?"
Lu Jianguo wiped the sweat from his forehead again.
"What do you know?"
"Houses are so expensive now, and our son hasn't married a wife yet."
"How much will a wedding cost?"
"How much will buying a house and a car cost?"
"Don't you know money flows out like water?"
"While I can still move, I'll earn as much as I can."
"Tch!" Zhao Lan let out a scoff.
Then she let out a faint sigh.
"That brat Lu Feng, I haven't seen him for several months."
"I really don't know if that brat is eating on time."
Lu Jianguo teased,
"Do you miss our son?"
Zhao Lan flatly denied it.
"I don't!"
"That brat only knows how to annoy me all day when he's at home!"
"I don't miss him!"
Lu Jianguo gave a chuckle.
He continued with the work at hand.
Just then, a sweet voice rang out.
"Uncle, Auntie!"
"Are you busy?"
"Let me help out!!!"
