The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

Chapter 9 - A Sudden Visitor



TODAY was Xiao Yan's first day of physical therapy. Luo Wei Tian wanted to go straight to the hospital but he was still at his office finishing important paperworks. He was on the last page of the last paper when his assistant knocked on the door and came in.

"What is it?" he asked not removing his gaze from the paper he was reading.

"President Luo, President Bai is here," assistant Wen said.

Luo Wei Tian stopped his movements and raised his head, slightly surprised. "Bai Chen?"

` "Yes, President."

"Let him come in."

When assistant Wen walked out of the office, Luo Wei Tian stood up and walked towards the floor to ceiling window. He already knew the reason for Bai Chen's sudden visit.

A moment later, a man in his 50s entered the room. Just like Luo Wei Tian, the man was also well maintained. Although he had more strands of white hair and the laugh lines on the side of his eyes were more prominent. His face was the type that was bright and honest. But only people who dealth with him, especially those in the same business, knew that he was anything but.

This was Bai Chen - the current head of the Bai Family and also the older brother of Luo Wei Tian's deceased wife.

"You came much faster than I thought," Luo Wei Tian started, not bothering in any formalities. There's no need for that between the two because even before they became brothers-in-law, they were friends first.

Bai Chen raised one of his brows. Luo Wei Tian was still the type who would go straight to the point. He sat down comfortable on one of the couches in the office.

"I would have come much sooner if my schedule wasn't quite so hectic," Bai Chen said. When he received the news that his second nephew woke up after his long coma, he wanted to visit immediately. But he was finishing an important deal that he couldn't put off so he couldn't just leave B City even if he wanted to. "How is Xiao Yan? Are there any negative sequelaes from the coma?"

"Fortunately, there are none. His brain is working properly, all his organs are functioning well. There is even no problem in walking again as long as he undergoes proper physical therapy. Although he is currently suffering from amnesia. But the doctor said it was already quite the miracle that he only suffered from that." Yes, a miracle that he, Luo Wei Tian, wouldn't waste and take for granted.

Bai Chen was slightly surprised upon hearing that. But yes, the doctor was right. Having amnesia was definitely better than being permanently paralyzed. At least this way, he could still have a normal life.

"How's Father-in-law?" Luo Wei Tian asked.

It was only for a moment, but sadness flashed in Bai Chen's eyes when he heard the question. "Still the same. There are days that his mind is clear, but those are far and few between."

The patriarch of the Bai family had been suffering from dementia for years now. Losing his daughter right after losing his wife certainly attributed to that. The former strong man just wilted like a dry plant. If Bai Chen still hadn't established himself as the president of the Bai Group, many people would have surely taken advantage of the situation.

"We'll go and visit on Mid-Autumn Festival," Luo Wei Tian simply said.

"That would be good. My sons haven't seen their cousin for quite a while now. I'm sure they'll be glad for their visit."

"Let us no longer waste time here and directly go to the hospital."

Bai Chen nodded as agreement. He wanted to go straight to the hospital but he's afraid that he might scared Xiao Yan since the teenager might not be able to recognize him. But after knowing that he had amnesia, Bai Chen was glad that he didn't go there directly.

He stood up. "Let's go."

----------

Luo Yan just finished his first physical therapy session. His therapist was a woman in her late 30s. Her face could be considered only as plain but because of the kind smile on her face, it made her quite likable. Her name was Doctor Kang. He observed the doctor's expressions and actions and he could tell that she really wanted to help him.

They didn't do much. She just asked questions. Like how well he could move around, reach, bend, or grasp. She also checked his heartbeat, posture, and balance. Then she massaged his limbs. Everything only lasted for about an hour. After that, Doctor Kang told him that she would make the best treatment plan for him so he could walk in no time.

Luo Yan was naturally satisfied with that.

After Doctor Kang left, he was alone. Which he wasn't much used to. Ever since he woke up, either his father or brothers would be here with him. But he knew that they couldn't always be here with him. His father had work, his older brother was starting to get busy with his graduation project, and his younger brother was still in high school. Luo Yan sighed. Looked like he was really getting used to this warm environment. Not that he wanted to complain. Truthfully, he enjoyed it.

His hospital room suddenly opened and his father walked in.

"Dad!" he called.

Luo Wei Tian walked towards the hospital bed of his son. "How was Xiao Yan's first therapy session?"

"It was okay. I like Doctor Kang very much." Then he noticed the man who walked behind his father. He looked at the man curiously. "Dad, who is he?"

"This is your Uncle Chen, your mother's older brother," his father introduced.

His mother's older brother? The image of the beautiful woman immediately flashed inside his mind.

Bai Chen stared at the thin teenager who looked like he was only 13 or 14 years old. He could really see the toll that the coma took from this nephew. But despite Luo Yan's thin face and body, Bai Chen felt like he went back in time and was now staring at his little sister. He gazed down and gathered his emotion else he started bawling here.

He raised his head and smiled at Luo Yan. "Xiao Yan."

Luo Yan instantly felt the goodwill of the man in front of him. He no longer acted timid and smiled brightly at Bai Chen. "Uncle Chen."

Just like that, another family member was added to his circle.
