Chapter 520: "Dad, Why Are Your Kidneys So Weak?"
On the cruise ship.
In a small, quiet private room.
Ye Xiu was happily dining with his parents.
"Mom, try this king crab. It's very delicious."
His mom smiled happily, "Alright, I'll try it."
She took a bite and her eyes lit up, "Hmm, it tastes good."
Ye Xiu nodded, "It's made by the top chef on the cruise. Dad, you should try it too..."
"Alright..."
His dad picked up his chopsticks and just reached out.
His mom blocked him with her chopsticks, smiling, "Your dad doesn't like this kind of food~"
Ye Xiu: ???
He looked at his dad.
His dad: "..."
Obediently, his dad put down his chopsticks, looking dejected, "Yes, I don't like it~~"
Then his mom continued eating happily, muttering, "It's really delicious~~~"
Ye Xiu noticed something was off.
He winked at his dad: Dad, something's not right. Although your status at home isn't usually high, it's not so low that you can't even eat properly, right?
His dad hesitated, then sighed slightly~~: Don't ask, it's a long story~~
Ye Xiu understood immediately that something must have happened at home while he was away.
As the son of the family and now being financially well-off, Ye Xiu felt it was necessary to support his family.
So he immediately moved his chair and sat next to his dad.
With a serious and solemn expression, he extended his hand, holding his dad's hand, and said earnestly, "Dad, I have some money now. If there's any problem at home, just tell me..."
Because he had acquired top-notch medical skills earlier, Ye Xiu now instinctively placed his index finger on the other person's pulse when shaking hands.
So, as soon as Ye Xiu held his dad's hand, he placed his index finger on his pulse.
And this touch startled him.
Ye Xiu was halfway through his sentence when he exclaimed, "Dad, why are your kidneys so weak!?"
Dad: !???
His dad was stunned, clearly not expecting his son to ask such a question.
More surprisingly, how did he know I was weak?
His mom was also stunned for a moment, then covered her mouth and started laughing~~
His dad's face turned red, he looked away, stammering, "What weakness? Your dad is in great shape!!"
As he spoke, his face turned bright red, clearly showing: I'm not! I didn't! You're making this up~~
Ye Xiu looked at his dad's expression, then at his mom who was stifling her laughter, and understood instantly~~
Good grief~
Taking advantage of my absence~
You two have been living it up, huh?
Realizing the reason, Ye Xiu patted his dad's hand and said with great concern, "Dad, you need to take it easy!"
Dad: "..."
Being advised by his son to take it easy~~ That's so embarrassing, isn't it?
Since it was already embarrassing... he decided to just go all out!
After all, it's not entirely my fault~
His dad immediately started to retort, "Take it easy? Do you think I can decide that? It's all because of your mom!"
Ye Xiu: "..."
He turned to look at his mom.
Gosh~~
Control yourself~~
Some things shouldn't be said out loud~
Seeing Ye Xiu's expression, his mom quickly explained.
She smiled, "It's nothing, actually we just wanted to have another child, a sister for you.
Now that you're often away and busy with your own things, we can't expect you to always be with us.
But we're getting older, and we do feel a bit lonely sometimes, don't we?
So, we thought of having another child."
"Oh, I see."
Ye Xiu understood.
Having a sister would be nice.
Since he wouldn't be home often in the future, having a sister to take care of their parents would be good.
It's said that daughters are like a warm coat for their parents.
Having a sister would certainly make her better at taking care of their parents than him.
And Ye Xiu didn't mind having a sister at all.
His mom quickly asked, "Xiao Yezi, if we have a sister for you, you wouldn't mind, right?"
Before Ye Xiu could speak, his dad objected, "Hah, he's my son, I know him best, he would definitely mind!"
Ye Xiu: "Oh, I don't mind~"
Dad: "No, he minds."
Ye Xiu: "No, I don't mind."
Dad: "No, no, he really minds."
Ye Xiu: "Dad, I really don't mind."
Dad: "..."
Seeing his mom's amused look.
Swish!
His dad glared back, his eyes full of anger: You ungrateful son! I'll give you a beating!!
Ye Xiu patted his dad's hand, "Don't worry, Dad, I believe in you, you can do it~"
His dad glared at Ye Xiu, his face turning green.
So weak, and still able? Able to do what?
If this continues, I'll be risking my life~~
I really have nothing left~~~
Ye Xiu: "Don't worry, Dad, I know an old Chinese medicine doctor who specializes in this area. I'll contact him to get you some remedies to ensure you're full of energy, like an eighteen-year-old again!"
He glanced at his dad and chuckled, "Taking over the victory banner from mom!"
Dad: "No way! I don't believe it!"
His dad turned his head, saying he didn't believe it, but his eyes were shining~~~
In desperate times, desperate measures are needed, he couldn't afford not to believe it~~
At this moment, his mom handed over a plate of oysters, smiling, "Here, honey, eat this. It's very delicious~~"
Dad: "..."
After the meal.
According to the plan, Ye Xiu let his parents go to the movies.
He then went to the restaurant to find Liu Wenyue.
And handed her a prescription, "Call Lin Hongshan and have the hospital prepare the medicine and send it over."
Liu Wenyue nodded, "Okay, Mr. Ye."
Ye Xiu, now a skilled doctor, could easily prescribe some tonic herbs.
The cruise would last seven days.
Since his mom was in such a hurry...
Ye Xiu felt it was necessary to give his dad a boost of support~
