Urban Super Medical Saint-Chapter 414 - 413: Rushing Back Overnight

"Do we need to travel overnight?" Ouyang Murong was slightly startled at the remark, then his expression quickly turned serious.

He had thought it was something significant.

"Travel overnight, and it's okay to take a few more flights." Ge Dongxu said.

"Alright, I'll have someone check immediately," Ouyang Murong said.

"What's the matter?" Yang Yinhou saw that Ge Dongxu wanted to rush back overnight and his expression also became serious.

This junior brother of his was no ordinary person; alone, he was worth an entire army. Any matter urgent enough to make him travel overnight must be of great importance.

"It's nothing much, just that Father called overnight and asked me to come home. I'm feeling somewhat uneasy, so I've decided to return immediately," Ge Dongxu said.

"A father's order is like a mountain! Since he's called overnight, whatever the reason, it's right for you to head back immediately," Yang Yinhou said, understandingly.

For someone like his junior brother, besides an earth-shattering event, only family matters could probably make him rush back like this.

"That was my thought, too. As for Senior Brother, just keep taking the same dose daily as today, and in nine days, you should be fully recovered; there's no need for me to worry. It's just that Mr. Chen is here, having returned to the country for a rare visit, and I won't be able to accompany him," Ge Dongxu said.

"Mr. Ge, you flatter me too much. I don't deserve your personal company. Besides, it's been decades since I've seen Uncle Yang, and these days are a good opportunity to spend time with him and catch up. You attend to your matters; don't worry about me," Chen Jiateng said, flattered by the mention.

"Alright then, I won't stand on ceremony with you. We'll catch up another time," Ge Dongxu, not one for pretense, said with a nod.

During the conversation, Ouyang Murong quickly returned.

"Uncle Master, there are flights available. If all goes well, you should arrive at Ouzhou City airport tomorrow morning. However, you'll need to make several connections, and we must leave for Mang City airport right now," Ouyang Murong said.

"Then let's leave now. Arrange the car," Ge Dongxu said as he stood up.

"Let Murong take you there. After nine days, when Senior Brother is fully recovered, he also plans to go to Ouzhou City to pay homage to Master," Yang Yinhou said.

"No need. Murong has been drinking, and it's not good for him to drive. Just arrange for someone else" Ge Dongxu said. Ouyang Murong's current level of cultivation was far from able to display the Six Meridians Divine Sword, and driving after drinking was still dangerous.

Seeing Ge Dongxu insist, Yang Yinhou and Ouyang Murong did not dare to say more and arranged for someone to drive Ge Dongxu to Mang City airport.

At one o'clock in the morning, Ge Dongxu boarded a plane and, after several connections, finally arrived at Ouzhou City airport around eight o'clock in the morning.

After leaving the airport, Ge Dongxu immediately chartered a car and headed straight for Ge Family Village near Baiyun Mountain Town.

Around ten o'clock, Ge Dongxu arrived at Ge Family Village, where the agrotourism business had yet to see any guests.

Usually at this time, Ge Shengming would surely be doing some preparatory work, but today he was pacing back and forth in the courtyard, looking visibly unsettled.

"Dad, what's so urgent that you called me back? Where's Mom?" Ge Dongxu saw his father pacing back and forth in the courtyard with a restless look on his face and couldn't help but feel a sudden pang of anxiety. He quickly approached and asked his father.

"Ah, Dongxu, how did you get back so quickly? Didn't you say you couldn't make it back today?" Ge Shengming was startled by his son's sudden appearance.

"How could I be at ease when you call me in the dead of night? I had no choice but to rush back overnight. What's the matter, really?" Ge Dongxu asked.

"Good, good, having a son like you makes my life truly worthwhile," Ge Shengming said as he looked at his dust-covered son, feeling his nose twinge with emotion as he patted his son's shoulder heavily.

"Dad, don't tell me you called me in the dead of night just to test your son," Ge Dongxu said with a wry smile.

"What nonsense is that! Do you think your dad would be that bored?" Ge Shengming glared at him, annoyed.

"Then what is it? And where's Mom? I didn't see her. Is she off learning to drive again?" Ge Dongxu asked.

"Your mother has no mind for learning to drive right now!" Seeing his son bring up his wife, Ge Shengming couldn't help but sigh deeply.

"What happened?" Ge Dongxu's face clouded over with concern as he asked.

"Do you remember me telling you last time that starting in September, your mom was going to teach at the town's third elementary school?" Ge Shengming asked.

"Of course I remember. How could I forget anything about my mom?" Ge Dongxu replied with a puzzled expression, not understanding why his father would suddenly mention it.

It wasn't that Ge Dongxu was slow to react; rather, in his heart, his mother had always been a very outstanding rural teacher who had worked diligently and without complaint for over ten years. It would only be right for her to be given a formal teaching position immediately. And since his mother wasn't demanding an immediate official placement, even if Ge Dongxu was quick-minded, he couldn't have imagined that the town's third elementary school wouldn't even offer her a substitute teacher position.

"Your mother's name is not on the list of teachers," Ge Shengming said.

"What? Those bastards!" Ge Dongxu's hair stood on end as he heard the news, his face turning a shade of iron, and even a hint of violent aura began to emanate from him.

No one knew better than he how his mother was as a woman, how passionately she loved her job, and how kind and simplehearted she was at her core. Yet, to his disbelief, someone had dealt her a heavy blow.

Ge Dongxu could even imagine with his toes how heartbroken and devastated his mother would feel learning the news; to her, teaching was a sacred profession, and the school had always been a clean place, but now…

The very thought made Ge Dongxu feel murderous.

Given his current realm and status, there were few things that could genuinely enrage him, as he deemed it below him to be angered by those matters.

But his mother was the greatest woman in his eyes, and he would give his life for her without so much as furrowing his brow. Now, someone had cruelly hurt her over the job she adored, a blow to her heart. Even if he used his connections to have the culprits dismissed, the psychological damage to his mother had already been done.

"Dongxu, you need to stay calm, don't do anything rash!" Seeing his son's face become extremely grim and his eyes emit a terrifying glare, Ge Shengming felt his heart skip a beat and hurriedly pressed his hand on Ge Dongxu's shoulder, advising him.

Ge Dongxu took a deep breath, then let out a long exhale, attempting to suppress the violence within him, because he knew it wasn't right, and he couldn't let anger cloud his judgment.
