chapter 5 You can't live for your own fault ===

Sylvan returned home and as soon as he entered the corridor, he smelled the fragrant aroma of food.
"Mom, I'm back."
"Go change into clean clothes and get ready to eat."
"Roger."
Seeing his mother, who was only in her forties, with gray hair on her temples and deep crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, Sylvan's nose felt sore and his eyes became moist.
His mother, Jasmine, was a member of the Lawson family in Nanjing.
Ever since Sylvan could remember, he and his mother had been dependent on each other, living humbly in the Lawson family.
As for his father, he had never been seen again since the day he was born.
He resented his irresponsible father!
His mother and he were ostracized everywhere in the Lawson family. Sylvan's grandfather had never looked at him in the eyes. Even the servants of the Lawson family dared to call him a bastard to his face!
When Sylvan was fifteen years old, just because he accidentally broke a bowl while worshiping his ancestors, his grandfather kicked them out in public and said that he would never recognize Jasmine as his daughter and Sylvan as his grandson!
Sylvan Pembroke remembers clearly that the winter in Nanjing was extremely cold, biting to the bone.
If he hadn't been rescued by a kind-hearted girl, he and his mother would have frozen to death on the streets!
Sylvan couldn't forget that girl's face. She looked like a celestial being.
Unfortunately, after that day, Sylvan Pembroke never saw her again.
"If I have the chance to see her again, I will definitely thank her properly," Sylvan Pembroke thought to himself.
"Now, I have inherited the Ancient Medical Lineage. When I am strong enough, I will make the Lawson family invite my mother back in glory!"
Sylvan took a deep breath and secretly made up his mind!
Just then, Jasmine came out with the dishes. Not seeing Begonia, she asked, "Son, Begonia didn't come back with you?"
"No, she is on duty today," Sylvan said.
"Work is important, but you must also pay attention to your health. Remember to tell her to eat on time," Jasmine said.
"Okay."
Sylvan lowered his head to eat. After a while, he asked Jasmine, "Mom, where did my jade pendant come from?"
"Jade pendant? It was left to you by your father," Jasmine was startled.
"My dad left it to me, huh... I didn't expect that irresponsible man to leave things to me," Sylvan Pembroke shook his head and chuckled.
Jasmine was silent for a while. She squeezed out a smile, looked at Sylvan, and said slowly, "Son, don't blame your dad. He had his reasons for leaving us."
"Reason? What reason could make him abandon us? What reason could he have to let us almost freeze to death on the street!"
The more Sylvan spoke, the more agitated he became. Recalling the experiences he had with his mother over the years, his breath became erratic.
"No, son, your father did not abandon us. He had no choice but to leave because of us. If he had not left, you might not even have been able to come to this world," Jasmine said with teary eyes.
Sylvan's heart skipped a beat, and he opened his mouth with complicated emotions, "Is... is it because of the Lawson family?"
When Sylvan Pembroke asked again, Jasmine just shook her head and refused to say anything more.
After eating, Sylvan returned to his room, lay on his bed, and stared at the ceiling.
His mother's unspeakable secret...his missing father was all related to the Lawson family!
Sylvan Pembroke gritted his teeth, turned over, and sat up.
"As long as I become strong enough, I will be able to find my father one day. If the Lawson family dares to stop me again...then I'll destroy them!"
"Begonia Peter... one day, I will let you know that betraying me is the biggest mistake of your life!"
Sylvan took a few deep breaths to adjust his condition, then crossed his legs and fell into meditation.
For now, the most important thing was to become stronger.
After receiving the inheritance from the Ancient Medical Lineage, Sylvan also knew that there were martial practitioners in this world.
A powerful martial practitioner who has cultivated to a certain level can even physically withstand small firearms.
Thinking about it, there must be martial practitioners in the Lawson family.
Among the hierarchy in the cultivation world, the true peak was the Martial Grandmaster.
There was a saying in the ancient martial arts world that...the power of a Grandmaster cannot be insulted!
This was enough to show how powerful a Grandmaster was.
However, Sylvan, who has inherited the Ancient Medical Lineage, can become a legendary immortal cultivator!
"The records show that the earth experienced a major event five hundred years ago. Not only did all the immortal cultivators disappear, but the spiritual energy of heaven and earth also became exhausted. The Earth was no longer suitable for cultivation. After so many years, I am afraid that I am the only immortal cultivator on the earth!"
There were eight realms for immortal cultivators: Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul, Soul Transformation, Void Return, Spirit Integration, and Tribulation Crossing.
"As long as I get to Foundation Establishment, I will not be afraid of Martial Grandmasters! The Lawson family... Just wait for me! I will make you kneel and beg for my mother to go back!"
"It's a pity that today's spiritual energy of heaven and earth is too thin, so I can only get half the result with twice the effort. If I can find a place where spiritual energy gathers, or find some heavenly materials and earthly treasures, I will be able to enter Foundation Establishment within two years!"
Some of the blessed places and caves recorded by the Ancient Medical Lineage were now mostly difficult to trace. Sylvan's hope can only be temporarily pinned on the heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
"I have to find a way to make money..."
…
The next day.
Sylvan practiced the Heaven and Earth Body Refining Technique of the Ancient Medical Lineage all night, feeling refreshed and full of inexhaustible strength.
There were still a lot of things to do today. Not only did he have to work as an intern at the hospital, but he also had to find a place to live.
If he continued living in his mother's house, he would be discovered sooner or later.
After breakfast, Sylvan went to West City Hospital to work.
Entering the hospital gate, Sylvan felt that something was wrong today.
All the nurses and doctors who saw him seemed to be avoiding him and even looked at him strangely, without concealing the disgust on their faces.
Ding!
Sylvan was about to enter the elevator when a strong smell of perfume came from inside.
Begonia glanced at Sylvan with disgust, "You're a freeloader. It's really unlucky of me to meet you so early in the morning!"
Sylvan glanced at her coldly and said, "You haven't turned yourself into the police yet?"
"Do you have any evidence? If you say nonsense like this, I will sue you for slander!" Begonia said disdainfully.
"Sylvan, don't act righteous. If it weren't for that girl last night, I would have chopped you into pieces!" Alaeic tapped Sylvan's chest with his index finger and coldly snorted, "Be careful, even if that little girl protects you, I will kill you sooner or later!"
"What do you mean?" Sylvan frowned.
Alaeic glanced at the Rolex Submariner on his wrist and sneered: "In five minutes, you will receive a notice from the HR department that your surgical internship has been canceled, and you will be allocated to go to the recuperation department."
"What? Why should they cancel my internship?" Sylvan suddenly became angry.
"Oh, are you feeling wronged? Don't you know what you did? You tampered with the patient's medical records at will, which caused two patients in the bed to have allergic reactions to the medicine this morning and almost died," Alaeic sneered and took out a disinfectant paper towel to wipe his hands. It seems that even touching Sylvan felt poisonous to him.
"I tampered with the patient's medical records?" Sylvan immediately understood that it must be this Alaeic's doing!
"Come at me if you have anything to say, you have no right to take human lives!" Sylvan said, trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart.
"Don't you know that this is a hospital? why are you yelling so loudly?" Begonia glanced at Sylvan with disgust, and leaned against Alaeic, saying, "You should be grateful to Mr. Alaeic. If not for his wonderful rejuvenation and operating two surgeries at the same time to save the lives of the two patients, you can go to jail!"
Alaeic walked up to Sylvan and whispered in his ear, "Kid, my dad is the largest shareholder of West City Hospital. I don't see how you, a loser, can fight with me! I'll play with you slowly, and I'll play with you to death! Just a worthless piece like you want to send me to the police station? Dream on! Go to the recuperation department and take care of bedpans!”
Sylvan stared at Alaeic, gradually calmed down, and said coldly, "You have done so many bad things, are you not afraid of being punished by God?"
"Punished by God? What a joke! "
Boom!
Before Alaeic Simon could finish his words, a door behind him slammed down on him without any warning, instantly causing his head to bleed.
"Bastard! What kind of door is this? Which supplier provided it? Find the person in charge. I will remove him from his position!"
Alaeic covered his head and howled in pain.
Begonia reminded him in a low voice, "Dear, this glass door was specially supplied by your third aunt and her glass door factory..."
The faces of everyone present changed.
Sylvan sneered, "You deserve it!"
"What did you say?! Did you do this!" Begonia stared at Sylvan and shouted coldly.
Sylvan spread his hands and said: "Everyone has heard that this glass door was provided by Dean Simon's third aunt's glass door factory. If you have quality problems, you should contact your aunt. Why should you blame me?"
"You!" Begonia was speechless, her face turning red from holding back.
"What the hell are you talking nonsense about? Why don't you help me up quickly! Take me to treat the wound!" Alaeic roared at Begonia.
Begonia hurriedly helped Alaeic up. When passing by the infusion room, she happened to bump into a nurse pushing a trolley inside.
The alcohol on the trolly hit Alaeic's head wound with a "bang"...
"Ah! Ah!!! It hurts!!!"
Alaeic suddenly screamed like a pig being killed. One can imagine how refreshing it would be to take an alcohol bath with such a fresh wound!
When the nurse saw that it was Alaeic, she panicked. When she came to help him, Alaeic was too heavy and the nurse's hand slipped...
Boom!
Alaeic fell down again, with glass shards all over his face!
"Ugh! Ugh!!! Ah!!! Damn it!!"
Alaeic was shaking with pain. His whole face was numb from pain, and he suddenly... fainted.
"Quick! Send Dean Simon to the emergency room!" Begonia panicked and shouted quickly.
Two nurses ran over quickly and put Alaeic on a stretcher with great effort.
Unexpectedly, the moment they pushed him into the elevator...
Clang!
The elevator door ruthlessly crushed Alaeic's hands hanging on both sides!
"Ah!!!"
Alaeic, who was unconscious, suddenly woke up from the pain again!
Alaeic's scream came from the elevator.
Alaeic was in so much pain that he wanted to cry. Could it be that Sylvan, that good-for-nothing, was right and he was being punished by God?
"That feels good!"
Sylvan listened to Alaeic's cries for help in the elevator shaft, and all the frustration in his heart was gone.
It really confirmed the saying...
You can't escape the consequences of your own actions!
