286: Chapter 286: Confront Someone?

I’ve Never Lost!

286: Chapter 286: Confront Someone?

I’ve Never Lost!

The atmosphere turned deadly!

With just one sentence from Wu Jie, he instantly enraged everyone present.

Who was Kong Heng?

He was the precious grandson of Kong Hailin!

The most outstanding young talent!

Moreover, he was seen as a future military talent by everyone!

The surgery had not been entirely successful and had left negative impacts, which had already caused Kong Hailin and the others to feel extremely disappointed.

The promising Kong Heng’s future was cut short because of a friendly martial competition.

The words from Tang Xiao had initially given everyone a glimmer of hope.

After all, Wu Jie’s martial skills were too good; if everyone hadn’t witnessed it, they had at least heard of it.

Perhaps his medical skills were also incredibly advanced.

But who would have thought…

Wu Jie would bluntly and fiercely say “He’s beyond saving.”

That statement…

Was it just a stab to the heart?

It was more like jabbing everyone’s sore spot with a red-hot branding iron than just rubbing salt on their wounds.

Pain!

Hate!

Rage!

Even Kong Hailin, who was usually composed and tactful, suddenly became furious, his face an iron blue with barely containable anger.

As for the others, each of them felt like rushing up and giving Wu Jie a beating.

Of course…

It was just wishful thinking.

They were all middle-aged and elderly men; Wu Jie could probably wipe them all out in minutes.

And Tang Xiao!

She was completely flabbergasted.

If she had known Wu Jie was so indifferent, she would never have let him come!

And why did he have to say something so harsh?

Was he still angry?

Or perhaps…

Tang Xiao’s eyebrows knitted tightly as she suddenly understood.

Medical skills!

Wu Jie did not want people to know that he had medical skills.

Nor did he want them to know that Tang Xiao’s old injury had been cured by him.

This was a world-class medical problem, one that even the most advanced medical technology today could not conquer.

If it were exposed, what would there be?

Applause?

Honor?

It would inevitably cause a global medical sensation, and who knows how much trouble it would bring to Wu Jie.

And now!

It was even more troublesome!

Tang Xiao’s inadvertent mistake had angered Wu Jie!

And Wu Jie’s words had enraged everyone!

What was supposed to be a simple visit to see the patient Kong Heng had turned into such a mess.

Tang Xiao felt she was a complete failure at being a person.

What War King of the special forces?

What domineering CEO?

Tang Xiao felt she was just so bad at dealing with people and social interactions.

But it was too late for regrets now, she had to figure out a way to resolve this awkwardness and conflict.

“Jie, don’t lose heart, Kong Heng has just had his bone set, and the stitches and bandages haven’t even been removed yet!”

“Maybe after the injury heals and the stitches and metal pins are removed, you’ll have a way!”

“You can’t just think because Elder Huo and the rest were powerless, that you’re beyond saving too!”

Tang Xiao was really trying her hardest.

At this point, who cares about image anymore!

Clinging to Wu Jie’s arm, she imitated the coquettishness of a woman from the movies.

She even forcibly acted out an appearance of being petite and full of hope.

Wu Jie found it awkard; Tang Xiao herself wanted to throw up.

But Wu Jie could see that Tang Xiao was trying to smooth things over for him and break this embarrassing atmosphere.

After thinking about it, Wu Jie felt he should go along with it.

After all, he had just said this morning that from today on, Tang Xiao was his woman.

Whatever trouble his own wife caused, no matter how big, he had to deal with it!

Sigh!

Wu Jie heaved a deep sigh and immediately started hamming up his acting skills.

“All right!

Stop being coquettish.

Don’t I know my own abilities?”

“Even the best Luli City First Hospital can’t deal with it, let alone me…

Isn’t that beyond saving?”

“Why make me look?

If I had that capability, I would have become a medical authority a long time ago!”

After a slight pause, Wu Jie looked around.

“I say, why are you all looking at me with such strange eyes?”

“When I say there’s no need to look, that it’s beyond saving, I’m mocking my own lack of skills!”

“How about it?

Could it be that you all have other ideas?”

With this rhetorical question, Wu Jie immediately surprised Tang Xiao.

Impressive!

Smooth-talking and stirring up trouble!

The ability to play word games is genuinely undeniable!

Wu Jie said he was no gentleman, but a villain!

His self-assessment couldn’t be more accurate.

There you have it…

Wu Jie’s retort left Kong Hailin and the others furious, yet they couldn’t find a way to rebut.

How to rebut?

Indeed, Wu Jie had just said a few words.

“What are you looking at?

It’s hopeless!”

When heard from different perspectives, this sentence truly has different meanings.

Kong Hailin and others, as Kong Heng’s family elders, were naturally outraged by Wu Jie’s remark.

But what if you think from Wu Jie’s perspective?

Elder Huo and other orthopedic experts were helpless, yet Tang Xiao still asked Wu Jie to find a way to help.

Isn’t that asking too much?

Wu Jie said he didn’t need to look, it was hopeless, and that wasn’t wrong either!

…

For Pete’s sake!

So what exactly did Wu Jie mean?

No one is a worm in his belly, of course, they can’t fathom his true thoughts.

Therefore…

Kong Hailin took a deep breath and waved his hand, saying,

“Fine!

You two talk less!”

“Since Elder Huo and the others have said as much, let’s just accept Kong Heng’s situation!”

“After he gets his stitches removed, we shall see how this hand recovers!”

No sooner had he finished speaking than someone chimed in:

“Yes!

Elder Huo said the nerves were damaged, but it might only cause inconvenience after recovery, and that’s just a possibility!”

“The human body’s self-healing ability is strong—muscles, nerves, bones—nobody can predict the eventual recovery!”

“Tang Xiao, has your IQ dropped with love and marriage, believing your husband to be omnipotent?”

“Skilled in martial arts doesn’t necessarily equate to medical proficiency!

Even those practiced in martial arts, if they become skilled doctors through extended illness, they can only deal with common injuries!”

“You know, Kong Heng could learn to command if he can’t become the War King!

Wouldn’t becoming a Commander leading battles be even better?”

“Exactly!

Even if the self-healing isn’t great, but it’s not a disability, studying command or expertise at an institute, his future can still be splendid!”

…

With a cacophony of opinions, the atmosphere in the sickroom finally relaxed.

Tang Xiao didn’t dare to speak rashly anymore.

Once bitten, twice shy.

Being inexperienced in dealing with people, it’s best to speak less.

But deep down, she was somewhat impressed by Wu Jie.

He managed to infuriate all the Commanders and leave them without a leg to stand on.

This tightrope dance of conversation, Tang Xiao felt she would never learn in a lifetime.

And at that moment, the conversation shifted back to Wu Jie.

“If you’re so skilled in martial arts, rather than defending the nation, why not compete in sports?”

“Exactly!

Compete in the Olympics.

With your ability, claiming a boxing championship should be a breeze!”

Kong Hailin added, “That’s a great idea!

It’s also a way of bringing honor to our country!”

However…

Wu Jie shook his head and smirked, “Forget about sports competitions, too many rules and restrictions.

I’m afraid I won’t get the championship and instead might get disqualified for too many fouls, or worse, kill an opponent and be banned.

That wouldn’t be bringing honor, it would be a disgrace.”

Kong Hailin nodded slightly:

“Hmm…

you’ve got a point.

Being used to unrestricted free fighting, it is tough to adapt to sports competitions.

But you’ve got skill, surely you ought to contribute to the nation and people?”

Wu Jie laughed, “I’m planning to start a business!

Create more jobs, pay more taxes, help more people increase their income and prosper.

Isn’t that contributing too?”

All right!

Now everyone was stumped again with nothing to retort—no way to argue!

Tang Xiao felt Wu Jie was truly devilish!

No matter what others said, he could counter back seamlessly, leaving them rebuttal-less and faultless!

So, to avoid another ‘disaster from the tongue’, Tang Xiao simply excused herself.

Everyone knew there was a charity event tonight, and the young couple was going to donate love.

How could they hinder them?

Moreover, no one wanted to chat with Wu Jie anymore.

That guy, a slick talker and a master of comebacks!

…

Stepping out of the sickroom, Tang Xiao started to feel nervous.

She knew Wu Jie must still be holding back anger and could scold her at any moment.

But Wu Jie didn’t.

Instead, seeing another VIP sickroom diagonally across, he immediately strode in with a cheerful smile.

Tang Xiao was about to follow but stopped and backed out.

Because she saw Xu Xinyi!

And on the bed, lo and behold, was Xu Changshan!

“Damn it!

What’s that loose-lipped guy doing in there?

Going to pick another fight?”

“Xu Changshan wasn’t poisoned to death by Mu En.

Is Wu Jie going to anger him to death instead?”

…
