Where's my golden core? Did you think I removed a kidney stone?

Chapter 75 Rainy Night!

Su Ye is very strong.

He pulled Su Chen into the house, closed the door behind him, and left only a ceiling light on in the entryway. The white light made Su Chen's face, which was trying to appear nonchalant, look even whiter. Su Chen looked him up and down, and the look in his eyes made Su Chen feel uneasy.

"You still consider me your brother?"

As soon as those words were spoken...

Su Chen seemed to have lost all his strength.

All the words he had prepared at the door crumbled in an instant. Su Chen had never shown the slightest fear during the battle in the rainy night, but now he was speechless and had no idea what to say.

Bloodline suppression.

Is this what bloodline suppression is?

Su Chen gave a wry smile, obediently lowered his eyes, and murmured guiltily.

"Brother, I've had too many classes lately. Isn't that how it is for us medical students? It's so hectic right now. I need to study hard as soon as possible so I don't fall behind."

Su Ye sneered.

"Compete? You're only a freshman, what's there to compete for? Studying medicine is indeed tough, but it doesn't have to be like this. Do you think I've never been to college?"

Su Chen wiped his forehead.

"Brother, you're a genius! You're the top student in school! I heard about you as soon as I entered the school. I'm not like you. I'm just an ordinary person. I can only make up for the gap by working hard."

"Flattery is useless."

"Okay."

Su Chen lowered his head dejectedly.

The rain outside was heavy, as if the rain was pounding on his heart. He was filled with anxiety. He couldn't let his older brother find out anything about what happened today. For ordinary people, prying into the "extraordinary" would only bring death. But Su Ye's gaze made him feel more and more guilty.

Su Chen stood in the entryway, his black coat still dripping wet, with a small section of the tag thread still attached to the inside of the cuff, clearly indicating that it was a last-minute purchase. His shoes were stained with dark mud, and his fingers trembled slightly involuntarily before he clenched them back into his palm.

"Come in."

Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where did you get this injury?"

"I bumped into the equipment during PE class today. I had it bandaged up, but I accidentally knocked it off on the way here."

Su Ye remained silent.

Su Chen's expression became a little unnatural after seeing this.

"Oh, then sit down, let me bandage you up."

Su Chen wanted to say something, but seeing Su Ye's unquestionable expression, he could only sit on the sofa.

Su Ye took out the first-aid kit he always kept at home. Su Ye looked at Su Chen's hand and couldn't help but frown. The wound at the base of his thumb was exposed, the skin was turned inside out, the edges were white from being soaked in rainwater, and the knuckle was still twitching slightly. Su Chen hadn't paid much attention to it before, but now that it was under the light, he realized how gruesome his wound was.

Heart beating wildly.

However, Su Ye acted swiftly and began bandaging.

Looking at his older brother's serious expression and the professional way he bandaged him, Su Chen suddenly felt a lump in his throat. For some reason, the fear and grievances that he had been forcibly suppressing suddenly surged up like a tide.

Faced with the fear of the extraordinary and the unknown, he actually wanted to confide in the older brother in front of him.

He suddenly woke up with a start.

No.

I absolutely can't let my brother know. Something was off just now. He clearly didn't ask me anything, but I almost spilled the beans.

"Ouch! That hurts!" Su Chen suddenly felt a sharp pain as Su Ye pinched him as if as punishment.

"If you don't answer my call next time, you're finished."

"Understood, understood."

After bandaging the wound, Su Ye got up and went into the kitchen.

Su Chen sat on the sofa, secretly letting out a sigh of relief, but not daring to really relax. His left hand was wrapped very tightly, and his thumb was still twitching in the gauze, like a small needle hidden in the bone.

The sound of water coming from the kitchen.

Su Ye smashed the ginger slices, threw them into the pot, and added a spoonful of brown sugar. Soon, the spicy and sweet aroma wafted out, suppressing the fishy smell of rain in the house.

Su Chen was taken aback when he took the bowl.

"Brother, I'm not a girl, why would I drink ginger water?"

"Go to the cold."

"oh."

The ginger water was very hot.

He held the bowl with both hands, but his left hand hurt when he exerted force, so he switched to his right hand to support the bottom of the bowl. He slowly blew on it a couple of times, then lowered his head and took a sip. The heat went down his throat and into his stomach, and only then did his body belatedly relax. The cold, pain, and fatigue all surged up in that sip of heat.

Su Chen leaned back on the sofa, his eyelids beginning to feel heavy.

"Brother, I've just been really busy lately, it'll be fine once this period passes..."

Su Ye sat beside him, watching him, but did not expose him.

"Take a nap."

"I'm not sleepy..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Chen closed his eyes.

This sofa is actually uncomfortable; the backrest is sagged. Last time he came, he always complained that his back would hurt after sitting for a long time. But now, as soon as he leaned against it, he felt like he had finally settled down. He didn't even realize when Su Ye took the empty bowl from his hand.

He fell asleep soon after.

His breathing was heavy.

The left hand was still exposed, and the thumb under the gauze trembled slightly from time to time.

Su Ye sat there, watching him for a long time.

The living room lights were off, and the sound of rain sliding down the windowpane filled the air. After Su Chen fell asleep, the last bit of pretense on his face finally disappeared, revealing an unusual weariness.

Su Ye reached out and pressed his fingertips against the side of his wrist.

My pulse is very irregular.

Blood loss, shock, overload—the body had just been pulled back from the brink of death, and the vital energy was still surging erratically.

Su Chen thought his clumsy explanation would be enough to fool everyone.

In fact, from the moment Su Chen entered the residential area, Su Ye sensed Su Chen's outward appearance and inner state. The force hidden in Su Chen's left thumb was very fierce, like a nail pressing into the joint, which even his own flesh and blood could not withstand. The hideous wound was caused by his outward appearance.

The vibrant green mass in the abdomen, an evolutionary internal structure, must be located within the liver.

Su Ye lowered his eyes.

The liver generates black wood.

This is Su Chen's inner vision evolution.

If Su Ye wasn't mistaken, it should be an energy that can self-repair the physical body. Is this the effect of the wood element? The water element governs the spirit, the fire element governs spiritual energy and power, and the metal element governs sharpness. The only element Su Ye hasn't seen yet is the earth element within his spleen.

When Su Ye last saw Su Chen, Su Chen's evolution was still very small, and Su Ye was extremely lax in his dealings with his family, so he neglected to use his mental power to probe Su Chen.

It seems this kid already has the makings of an outward appearance.

And tonight, the black wood is born.

This was not an ordinary evolutionary process. Under Su Ye's meticulous perception, it was more like an evolution completed by compressing potential under extreme conditions.

Su Ye slowly withdrew his fingers. He had just tried to use his mental power to influence Su Chen to tell him some information, but he had obviously failed. His younger brother's willpower was much stronger than he had thought.

This made him quite gratified.

The path to the extraordinary.

Those with unwavering will are destined to go further.

He reached out and took the thin blanket, covered him with it, and then gently put the injured left hand back under the blanket, moving with the utmost care, just like a patriarch.

After doing all this.

Su Ye's eyes instantly turned cold, and a chilling killing intent burst forth. A loud clap of thunder echoed in the sky, making the rainy night seem exceptionally eerie.

Su Chen almost died outside.

Who is it?

Su Ye's gaze was icy as he pushed open the door and went out.

The rain poured down relentlessly throughout the night.
