Yu Shaohua had already received the news, such a big case involved a doctor from their hospital! It was even his own niece; how could he possibly not know about it.
He didn’t expect Bai Xiao to encounter such an incident.
He also didn’t expect An Zhiyuan to be so severely injured.
The hospital’s doctors had already municated with Yu Shaohua, and An Zhiyuan’s condition was laid out on the table right away.
Even if An Zhiyuan’s condition recovers ideally, it will require a very long period of convalescence. Without one or two years of long-term recuperation, it is simply not possible to recover fully, according to all the doctors.
Yu Shaohua, of course, knew that this meant a significant change in the nature of An Zhiyuan’s work, especially since An Zhiyuan now needed someone to care for him.
Bai Xiao still needs to go to school, and there are not many opportunities left for her to pursue further studies. Bai Xiao is getting older day by day; continuing like this is definitely not a solution.
Bai Xiao and An Zhiyuan were also discussing what to do.
An Zhiyuan still had his cast on, and even though he had already healed, he could not just pretend as if nothing happened. If he went out and said that An Zhiyuan was lively and bouncing around, he would probably be captured for research.
The couple hadn’t yet agreed on a solution when An Cheng already called.
An Zhiyuan had such a big accident, and as a chief, An Cheng couldn’t possibly be unaware. Although mentally prepared, as such crises are most likely to be encountered, it still pained his heart.
That’s his own son, after all.
An Cheng was already prepared to transfer An Zhiyuan to the Capital City, so that he would be closer to home and could be taken care of nearby. They also knew about Bai Xiao’s further studies in Modu; they couldn’t possibly let their daughter-in-law carry such a heavy burden alone! Nor could they hinder Bai Xiao’s progress.
His idea was to have the couple both move back to the Capital City and work at the hospital there. Since An Zhiyuan’s current condition made it impossible for him to continue working on the front line, it would be better to return to his parents’ side if he was to change his profession.
An Zhiyuan disagreed. The Capital City was his father’s stronghold, and returning would truly mean just idling away his time. Even the training programs he was good at would not be implemented there; it would be better for him to develop elsewhere. He knew he had lost the chance to return to the battlefield, but he also did not want to end up in a clerical role like his forebears, spending his entire life in the rear.
He still wanted to exert his influence and shine; he was confident that he could train many more bodyguards like himself.
"Dad, I disagree with going back," he said.
An Cheng was left speechless with frustration, his son had always been somewhat disobedient.
"If you don’t e back, what about Bai Xiao? She still has her studies, and this will delay her. Are you planning to follow her to Modu? You’re not young anymore, think for yourself. Who am I doing this for? It’s for both of you. If you e back, your aunt can also take care of you, and your wife can work with peace of mind. What is there for you to disagree with?"
"Dad, I want to take Ayuan to Modu; he needs recuperation, and I can take care of him if we’re close by. Besides, his superior has also discussed this with him. If we’re to transfer jobs, we can go to Modu where a security pany is about to be set up. It’s a good developmental opportunity for An Zhiyuan and suits his skills. Plus, I can also look after him." The two of them had discussed it, and neither was prepared to go to the Capital City.
Going back there would involve too much; there would undoubtedly be a lot of issues, particularly with Wei Shufen, that troublesome stepmother.
Moreover, returning there would leave An Zhiyuan with no scope to display his abilities, just doing ideological work for rades and writing reports all day, something that An Zhiyuan didn’t want to do.
Bai Xiao also hoped that An Zhiyuan could start a different kind of life.
