After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

Ding!

Congratulations to the host for completing the task: [Yu Jiujiu's Wish]

Reward 1: Sign Language Skill (S-level)

Reward 2: Lip-reading Skill (S-level)

Just as Yang Hao was considering the choice for NPC No.4, the System's voice suddenly rang out.

Uh?

This must be Yu Jiujiu's brother's completion of the artificial cochlear implant surgery, right?

Yang Hao had previously lent one million to this Blue Buff, who immediately used the money to fulfill her wish to have her brother get an artificial cochlear implant.

In fact, it is most ideal to implant artificial cochlear implants between the ages of 1 and 6, and though the effects can be somewhat diminished past that age, it still varies from person to person. Before the surgery, the hospital would make an assessment based on the examination results. Yu Jiujiu's brother, Yu Dongdong, was considered to still benefit from the surgery.

Therefore, the hospital performed the artificial cochlear implant surgery on Yu Dongdong today.

At the same time as Yang Hao received the feedback from the System, Yu Jiujiu also sent him a message: Hao, Dongdong has completed the cochlear implant surgery, thank you.

Although the message was brief, Yang Hao could sense that Yu Jiujiu must be very excited right now.

"Which hospital is it? I'll come over and visit Dongdong."

Yang Hao felt it was necessary to visit this Blue Buff at a time like this. Without a doubt, she must have wanted to share her joy with someone else at this moment.

After waiting a moment, Yu Jiujiu's message came back: Jiangcheng City Second People's Hospital, Inpatient Building, Room 1603.

Jiangcheng Second Hospital?

What a coincidence!

Turns out, Yu Dongdong's surgery was performed at the hospital where Guan Mengmeng worked, although Guan Mengmeng was an internist, and Yu Dongdong's surgery would have been in the otolaryngology department.

Yang Hao walked out of his office where his two secretaries and two assistants were busy at work.

Hm, the executive office is starting to mean business.

Yang Hao nodded in satisfaction and then left the executive office under the gaze of several beautiful eyes.

"Xinyi, haven't you and Mr. Yang been getting along? You didn't even go to report to him today."

After Yang Hao left, Xu Yali leaned in close to Sun Xinyi and teased her in a low voice.

Sun Xinyi knew what she meant by "reporting for work" and her pretty face blushed slightly. However, the current Yibao, no longer the same as before, now an intermediate water mage, had the ability to counter her best friend's teasing.

"You have time to think about all this nonsense; you might as well go find a boyfriend, then you can practice on your own!"

Sun Xinyi pursed her lips lightly.

"You still have the mood to tease me."

"Looks like there's no cold war going on!"

Seeing her best friend in a good mood, Xu Yali dismissed her own speculation.

"Mr. Yang is very busy. It's not possible for him to be with me every day, but we still send messages."

Yibao was very understanding and not the clingy type.

"Okay, good to know you're doing well."

"Madam CEO!!"

Xu Yali added another tease before heading back to her own workstation.

Yang Hao drove away from Jiangcheng Newspaper Group, then stopped by a florist to buy a bouquet of flowers—visiting a patient required a bit of ceremony, after all.

But just bringing flowers seemed a bit dry. By chance, there was a Huawei Experience Center nearby. Yang Hao decided to buy a Huawei MateX5.

Although the hearing provided by an artificial cochlear implant couldn't compare to that of a normal person, the recipient would still be able to hear the world around them. Yang Hao thought of setting up this "little brother-in-law" with a smartphone.

He himself was using a MateX5, and found it quite handy.

"Forget it, make it two more!"

At the checkout, Yang Hao said to the saleswoman.

"Uh, okay!"

The saleswoman was momentarily stunned, then ecstatic inside.

After all, she earned a commission on each sale, and the MateX5 was the most expensive phone in the store, with Yang Hao purchasing the top-tier 16GB+1TB version, priced at 16,999 yuan.

And this gentleman had just bought three phones in one go, making the saleswoman feel as if she were picking up free money.

The three colors of the phones were Feather Sand White, Feather Sand Black, and Fantasy Purple.

The white and black were for Yu Jiujiu and her brother.

The Fantasy Purple was meant for the magnanimous Doctor Guan. Yesterday, when he took his mother-in-law, Kang Huizhi, to see the doctor, Doctor Guan had been a big help. Giving her a phone was both a thank you and a way to make a lasting impression.

After all, considering Guan Mengmeng's overall qualities, her rating as an NPC would likely not be lower than that of Yibao.

Arrived at Jiangcheng Second Hospital.

Yang Hao first went to the inpatient department, then took the elevator to the 16th floor.

1603 was a standard three-person ward.

All three beds were occupied, and at that moment, Yu Jiujiu was sitting by the bed near the window. On the bed lay a young man in his twenties who was clearly her brother, Yu Dongdong.

"Hao, you're here."

Yu Jiujiu quickly got up to greet him, regarding him as her benefactor in her heart.

Before anything else, Yang Hao handed her the fresh flowers he carried, and then sized up the affordable young brother-in-law lying in the bed.

The kid looked pretty spirited, with delicate facial features. That was to be expected since Yu Jiujiu had good looks, and as her brother, he wouldn't be too far off.

"Dongdong, hello there!"

"Can you hear me?"

Yang Hao smiled and waved to Yu Dongdong on the bed.

"Hao, the cochlear implant hasn't been turned on yet, it will take about a month before we can activate and adjust it, and then he needs to receive proper stimulation, followed by speech therapy and learning. Only then he will gradually be able to hear sounds..."

Yu Jiujiu explained from the side.

"Uh..."

"I see!"

Yang Hao really didn't know cochlear implants worked like that; he thought Dongdong would be able to hear immediately.

"Looks like I bought this gift a little early, but he'll be able to use it soon."

While speaking, Yang Hao took out two MateX5 phones, placing one beside Yu Dongdong.

Right now Yu Dongdong's ears were bandaged, but his hands were free. He picked up the exquisitely packaged phone box that Yang Hao had placed beside him. A shocked expression appeared on his face, and then he started gesturing to his sister Yu Jiujiu...

If it had been before, Yang Hao naturally wouldn't have understood, but now he possessed top-level sign language and lip-reading skills, easily grasping the meaning behind Yu Dongdong's gestures.

He first asked his sister who Yang Hao was, then why this person was giving him a gift.

Yang Hao pretended not to understand, waiting for Yu Jiujiu's response, then saw her sign back: He is your sister's boyfriend. He gave you the gift to celebrate you soon hearing the sounds of this world.

Upon receiving his sister's response, Yu Dongdong immediately made a gesture of thanks towards Yang Hao.

"Hao, Dongdong says thank you."

Yu Jiujiu translated for him.

Yang Hao smilingly nodded, acting as if he didn't understand, which allowed him to covertly observe the siblings "secret conversation." It was quite interesting.

"Hao, you should have just bought Dongdong a phone; why did you get me one too? These phones are expensive!"

Although Yu Jiujiu said this, she felt very warm inside, which showed that Yang Hao was also thinking of her.

"It's just a phone, it's not such a big deal!"

Yang Hao waved nonchalantly but thought to himself: You've already said I'm the boyfriend, giving a phone isn't too much!

Yu Jiujiu wanted to be polite for a bit longer, but considering Yang Hao's wealth, he really wouldn't make a big deal out of a phone. Insisting further would have made her seem a bit pretentious.

"Jiujiu, I brought back lunch..."

Just then, a woman's voice came from the doorway of the ward.

Yang Hao instinctively turned his head to glance and then saw a rather delicate-looking woman carrying several boxed meals into the room.

The woman wasn't tall, about 160 cm. She had fair skin and though not stunning, she radiated a gentle and tranquil charm.

Upon seeing Yang Hao, the woman paused, then greeted, "You must be Hao. Jiujiu was just talking about you."

"Hao, this is my friend Jingxue," Yu Jiujiu introduced from the side.

"Hello."

Yang Hao nodded slightly in greeting.

"I was worried Dongdong wouldn't have enough to eat, and I happened to buy an extra portion. If you don't mind, Hao, please join us for lunch."

The woman named Jingxue placed the lunch she had bought on the windowsill and extended an invitation to Yang Hao.

"No thanks, I have plans with a friend."

Yang Hao waved his hand: "You guys go ahead and eat. Jiujiu, I'll be leaving."

"Hao, let me walk you out."

In this situation, Yu Jiujiu didn't insist further. She followed Yang Hao out of the ward, even escorting him to the elevator. Just as the elevator arrived, she made a stealthy move and kissed Yang Hao on the cheek, then returned to the ward.

Yang Hao touched his cheek where he was unexpectedly kissed, smiled and shook his head, feeling somewhat like he was in a romance.

This surprise attack from a former crush unexpectedly brought back some memories of his immature youth.

Well, if he could turn back time by twenty years, that would be about right.
