Shangguan Hou thought about it and gave an ambiguous answer. "Perhaps."
He might not be able to remove the needle, but the person who did it could.
However, Shangguan Hou did not tell Father Yuan about this.
"Please save my son. He is still so young..." Father Yuan's eyes turned a little red.
Shangguan Hou's eyes did not waver in the face of Father Yuan's pleading. However, since he was asked by someone else, he merely said, "Let me go home and do some research."
After that, he picked up his things and left.
Father Yuan hurriedly followed him out.
Yuan Xi stood at the door and waited for them to leave before she raised her head to look at Yuan Hen in the room. She clenched her fists tightly and did not dare to enter.
This was because the word "perhaps" that Shangguan Hou had just said was still lingering in her ears.
If Huo Yao really returned to normal... Yuan Xi inhaled deeply and thought of something. She suddenly took out her phone, opened WeChat, and sent Huo Yao a message.
Huo Yao was still outside when she received the message. She had just met Lei Xiao, so she quickly replied to Yuan Xi: [Did you say someone can help your brother recover?]
Yuan Xi: [The doctor didn't say for sure. He only said it might be possible.]
Huo Yao raised her brow and replied: [Maybe he's a scammer?]
Her acupuncture skills did not give Yuan Hen any chance. She only spared his life because he was Yuan Xi's older brother.
Yuan Xi calmed down a little when she saw Huo Yao's reply. However, she recalled the domineering aura of the doctor in the Chinese tunic suit, so she typed: [He doesn't look like a typical Chinese physician. He wears a Chinese tunic suit and has the demeanor of a famous doctor. My dad's friend recommended him to me. He shouldn't be a scammer.]
A Chinese physician?
The demeanor of a famous doctor?
Huo Yao tapped the screen gently and asked casually: [What's his name?]
Yuan Xi: [I'm not too sure. I heard my dad call him Mr. Hou.]
Mr. Hou?
Huo Yao ran through the names in her mind but could not match them up, so she did not probe further. They ended their conversation before long.

Meanwhile.
Shangguan Hou went straight to the hotel after leaving the Yuan residence.
His phone rang the moment he swiped his card and entered.
He took it out and saw that it was Fan Shun. He knew the latter was calling to ask about Yuan Hen, so he answered the call.
"Mr. Shangguan, what's the situation?" Fan Shun's cold voice came first.
"It's useless," Shangguan Hou said as he entered the bathroom and took out a box from under the sink.
There was a bottle of medicine and a pair of tweezers in the box. He took the cup next to him and filled it with half a cup of water. Then, he dripped two drops of medicine into the water.
After shaking the water evenly, he dipped his finger in the water and gently brushed it across the contours of his face.
When Fan Shun heard Shangguan Hou's words, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Crippled? Even you can't cure him? Not even for a few minutes? You're from that family. "
Shangguan Hou was still fiddling with his face in front of the mirror. Fan Shun's last sentence made him pause for a moment, but he quickly suppressed the discomfort in his heart and said indifferently, "You need the one who started the trouble to undo it. If you want Yuanheng to regain consciousness, you can only find someone who turned him into this."
Fan Shun gripped his phone tightly. If his subordinates could find any clues, they would not ask Shangguan Hou to owe them a favor.
He massaged the space between his eyebrows and thought about the unprecedented amount of brain power in the email. Then, he asked Shangguan Hou for a few more words.
He needed to know who the source of Yuanheng's data was, so he had to bring this person into the base for research.
