Fouls Prohibited

Ye Ci followed Huo Tinglan to another study room on the west side of the third floor.

He has never been to this room, and it seems that it is specially used to store more important items. The smooth cedar wood floor, the soft plush carpet, the leather safe that is as tall as a person, dark blue inlaid with gold, thick and thick.

Several flat drawers in the cabinet were filled with certificates and documents such as real estate and equity, and the top one was reserved for Ye Ci.

A thick stack of old certificates of merit with smooth edges and coating, "three good students", "honorary certificates" and "good news", festive bronzing and positive red, together with two photo albums and a handwritten parenting diary by Ye Hongjun Lying on expensive black walnut drawer boards exuding "my life is worth it"...

"...Why, why is this still in the safe?"

There is even the "Little Hygiene Pacesetter" that Zhang got when he was in the first grade of elementary school.

Ye Ci was so ashamed that his knees were weak, and he almost knelt down for Huo Tinglan.

The boxes of old things he moved were packed by Uncle He. He always thought they were piled up in the storage room. During this period of study, the sky was dark and he didn't even think about looking at them...

"Why," Huo Tinglan curled his lips, took out a file folder, concealed his teasing, and asked calmly, "The purpose of the safe is to store important items. Are these items not important to you?"

"It's important, it's important." Ye Ci was at a loss for words.

But it's not worth the money, and it seems that it's not worth it, such...

"So," Huo Tinglan sneered, enjoying the green smoke sizzling from the child's head, "what's wrong?"

Ye Ci: "..."

Seeing that Ye Ci was silent, Huo Tinglan opened the folder to get down to business.

The large and small inspection reports in the folder are neatly arranged by project and date, and Ye Hongjun's changes in his condition in recent years are clear at a glance. In addition, there are some foreign language documents that Ye Ci cannot understand.

The folder looked familiar. Ye Ci remembered that he had seen Huo Tinglan holding it in his hands one day after school. At that time, he felt that those papers were inexplicably like a hospital's examination report...

It really is.

"On the legal level, your mother is also my mother. Whether it is because of my feelings for you, or because of the law and morality, I should be responsible for her health...I believe you also agree with this point. Yes. If our roles were reversed, you should make the same decision." Huo Tinglan explained in a natural tone, and conveniently included Ye Ci in his logical system, as if his behavior could not be ignored. It's normal, but it's not strange if he doesn't do it like this, "So some time ago I talked with her attending doctor, sorted out her inspection reports for the past two years, and got in touch with a biomedical company in San Francisco..."

What Ye Hongjun suffers from is a malignant disease related to the Omega biological system, and has a certain genetic predisposition.

In the previous life, because he was worried that Ye Ci would repeat his mother's tragedy, Huo Tinglan had a comprehensive and detailed understanding of this disease, the pathogenic factors, early symptoms, prevention methods, and the most important treatment methods. Fortunately, at that time, a new drug with a breakthrough therapeutic effect had been approved for marketing. Although it was expensive, the therapeutic effect was excellent. Taking a step back, even if Ye Ci really got sick in the future, he could still be cured by this drug. . What is embarrassing is that this new drug successfully passed the "breakthrough drug" approval and certification of the country's drug regulatory authority in the year of Ye Hongjun's death. It has not received widespread attention domestically, and its reliability has not been fully proven.

However, Huo Tinglan has experienced the future of this new drug becoming a special drug, and for the sake of safety, he has consulted with many parties in the past two months and conducted a full investigation and research on the project... Right now it is indeed Ye Hongjun's only hope for recovery .

“…this pharmaceutical company went public on NASDAQ in December last year, raised a staggering $335 million, and has sufficient funds for research and development. They currently have 7 drug candidates in their product pipeline, one of which targets Omega glands. Drugs for body malignancies have entered the third phase of clinical trials, which is their main project at this stage." Huo Tinglan explained the situation, took out the printing paper printed with company information and drug development status, and handed them to Ye Ci one by one, "I During this period of time, I consulted several authoritative people in the medical field, and they spoke highly of this project. Although there are indeed uncertainties in the clinical trial stage, but under the premise that other treatment options have no obvious effect, I think...it is worth it. try."

This is Huo Tinglan's feasible plan, and its importance is self-evident.

Ye Ci pinched the stack of materials that Huo Tinglan handed over one by one, his eyes trembled slightly, and looked eagerly, the paper was crumpled, as if he was afraid that if he answered slowly, the opportunity would leak out through his fingers.

Huo Tinglan handed the entire file folder to him, and said in a gentle voice: "I didn't prepare comprehensively before, and I wasn't sure if it was safe, so I didn't tell you all the time. I was afraid that if something went wrong, I would give you hope and hurt you. Disappointed... all the project information so far is here, take it back and read it carefully before giving me an answer, there is still some time before the start of the third phase of clinical trials," he raised his hand and rubbed Ye Ci's hair, with a calm tone Inexplicably convincing, "Don't worry, don't be afraid, your mother is in a stable condition now."

In the previous life, Ye Hongjun passed away three months before Ye Ci's college entrance examination, which is still far away, and there will be no major problems in a short time.

"If you participate in the experiment... will my mother go to San Francisco?" Ye Ci asked, his eyes full of bewilderment.

He can even speak Chinese like this, and if he uses English in practice, he may be able to recognize a street sign, or ask "How, Howmuch" in a convenience store...

But let Ye Hongjun go to the other side of the ocean to participate in clinical trials alone, he can't rest assured.

Huo Tinglan could see his worries, and smiled softly: "The clinical trial process is very long, and it is impossible for you to accompany your mother. If you are willing to let your mother receive treatment, I will arrange for the medical team and life assistant to accompany you all the way. You are currently My first priority is to study...all other things can be left to me."

What kind of medical team accompanied him all the way, and even went to a foreign country with him. Ye Ci had limited knowledge, so he didn't think about it at all for a while, and all he used was his experience of going to other places to seek medical treatment in the past.

It turns out that things can be solved like this.

How can there be such a good person as Uncle Huo in the world?

The bridge of Ye Ci's nose was sore and he choked for a while, but he couldn't speak.

The turbulent emotions were stuffed in his throat, suffocating him to death.

So he stepped forward suddenly, plunged into Huo Tinglan's arms, like a tired bird returning to the forest, throwing himself into the spring breeze, he wrapped his arms around Huo Tinglan's thin waist, so tight, so hard, revealing Childish and clumsy and innocent, he didn't know how to express his feelings, so he could only hold her tightly.

The white shirt just showed a hint of dryness when it was wet again.

After a long while, Ye Ci squeezed out a sentence: "I'm not normal, it's not that I cry every now and then..."

In the past few days, it seems that all the tears in this life have been cried in front of Uncle Huo, and it has become a bag of tears.

He doesn't feel at ease without an explanation.

"Yeah." Huo Tinglan lowered his head and hugged him, "Xiaoci won't cry anymore."

For most of his life in the future, he will no longer have tears caused by bitterness.

Ye Ci nodded, then remained motionless, just hugging Huo Tinglan like a sticky plaster.

This hug, in Ye Ci's eyes, is very pure, it has nothing to do with desire, it is just pure attachment and warmth. The chest was like the sea, gentle and tolerant, he floated in the warm heart, savoring the unprecedented joy and peace, reluctant to let go.

After hugging like this for a while, Huo Tinglan suddenly patted Ye Ci on the back, and reminded reservedly: "Okay... Today's emotional ups and downs are so big, go take a hot bath and rest earlier."

Not only did Ye Ci not let go, but because he was afraid of being chased away, he hugged him even tighter, rubbing his little head against Huo Tinglan's shoulder and shaking twice.

"Be obedient, Xiaoci." Huo Tinglan somehow changed his mind and took a step back.

"Why, what's the matter, Uncle Huo?" Ye Ci staggered, still tired of him.

"It's nothing, it's time to rest." Huo Tinglan pinched the back of Ye Ci's neck through his collar, and used Omega's stress response to lift Ye Ci away like a clingy kitten.

Ye Ci didn't say anything more, his eyes darkened, and he stood a step away from him.

Huo Tinglan sighed.

A rare intimacy...

"I've been hugging you for five minutes," Huo Tinglan pondered for a moment, his brows and eyes filled with the innocence that Ye Ci forced to speak yellow, "I am a healthy and energetic Alpha, and I have liked you for a long time. Hold me..." He looked at Ye Ci's face that turned from confusion to disbelief, and said helplessly, "Do you need me to explain clearly? I'm afraid it's not polite."

Ye Ci's face was blushing, subconsciously, he lowered his eyes and swept away.

It seems to be shocked that Uncle Huo, a gentleman, also has the functions that Alphas should have.

"What are you looking at?" Huo Tinglan laughed, and reservedly blocked Ye Ci's jaw with a finger, forcing him to look up, "Look forward."

"No, I didn't see anything!" Ye Ci swallowed dryly in fright, and stared straight ahead.

Not to mention that the two are not officially together, even if they are together, with Ye Ci's current level of innocence, there is nothing that can be done.

otherwise…

Ye Ci could probably dig a tunnel on the bed and escape overnight.

"Turn around and walk together," Huo Tinglan suppressed a smile, "Go back to your bedroom and sleep."

"Night, good night, Uncle Huo." Ye Ci hurriedly turned around holding the documents, walking stiffer than a robot, and walked towards the bedroom on the second floor in a daze.

Did Uncle Huo just... play a hooligan?

Anyway, judging by his scale, it's hard to count.

"..."

Ye Ci squeezed his fist.

It all depends on him.

How old are you? I don't know how to be clever.

It made Uncle Huo play a hooligan.
