Hearing the sound, Yang Feng suddenly opened his eyes, looked at the old general who had woken up on the sickbed, stood up, and said:
"Grandpa, do you recognize me?"
He was somewhat puzzled, realizing that his surname really was Yang.
"Hmm...sigh, I'm getting old, my eyesight is failing, I mistook you for someone else."
As Yang Feng's face drew closer, Lin Zhengfan turned back, closed his eyes, and a sense of loss welled up inside him. He sighed deeply.
Immediately, he opened his eyes, looked at Yang Feng, and said, "Young man, could you come and help me up?"
"Okay." Yang Feng nodded, sat on the hospital bed, and helped him sit up against the bed frame.
"I thought I was really going to go down this time and see my old comrades and a soldier I used to lead. I didn't expect this old bone to be so tough," Lin Zhengfan said slowly.
"Old man, don't say that. It's probably because you went to the battlefield to defend the country and made great contributions. *** is watching over you from heaven."
Seeing that he was in low spirits, Yang Feng knew this was not a good sign, so he immediately spoke up.
"You've got a good tongue, young man." Lin Zhengfan chuckled softly, looking at Yang Feng's somewhat familiar face, which reminded him of that soldier.
Lin Zhengfan, his eyes weathered by years of experience, stared blankly at Yang Feng's face for a dozen seconds.
"Could you open the cabinet for me? There's a red ID card inside. Could you take it out for me?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Feng immediately opened the cabinet and found two red certificates inside. He said, "There are two red certificates here."
"Yes, that's right, just take the top one."
Lin Zhengfan nodded slightly and replied in a slightly hoarse voice.
"Okay." Yang Feng reached in, took out the small red book that was tightly covered at the top, and handed it to Lin Zhengfan.
When Lin Zhengfan received the little red book, he first stroked it with his aged hand, then gently opened it, a trace of sadness that he could not hide flashing deep in his eyes.
Yang Feng glanced at it casually, and his heart skipped a beat. He then stared intently at the small red book in the man's hand. Five large red characters were written on it.
Reserve Major General!
Next, the three names below are his father's names—Yang Jiajun!
Yang Feng initially thought it was just someone with the same name, but when he saw the photo next to the name against a red background, he recognized the incredibly familiar person in it.
That's right, it's his father!
His father is a major general?!
Yang Feng's mind was a bit confused. He only knew that his father was a retired soldier, but he never expected that his father was a major general.
That's outrageous! He must be a second-generation military officer!
"Young man, look at this. This is one of my former soldiers, the one I valued most. But he made a mistake, sigh—"
Lin Zhengfan spoke in a hoarse voice, his gaze never leaving the photo on the little red book.
"What mistake did he make?" Lin Zhengfan didn't notice the drastic change in Yang Feng's emotions; he only heard a slightly low voice.
“Wrong, wrong…” Lin Zhengfan shook his head slightly and said, “It’s been so long, let’s not talk about it anymore.”
"Grandpa Lin, I want to know if my father is really a major general?"
Yang Feng couldn't hold back any longer and spoke up.
"He is certainly a full-fledged major general, and the youngest among them. He has made countless contributions to the country, probably even more than I have..."
At this point, Lin Zhengfan suddenly paused, as if remembering something, looked up at Yang Feng, and asked softly:
What did you just say?
Yang Feng wiped the tears from his eyes and said, "I'm saying, my dad really is a major general, right?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhengfan became agitated, his large hand trembling slightly as he pointed at Yang Feng, saying, "You, you're Xiao Yang's son?!"
"Yes, that's right," Yang Feng replied.
"Come sit over here quickly, let me take a good look at you," Lin Zhengfan said hurriedly.

Outside the doorway.
"Mr. Lin, the medicinal herbs have been purchased, but a few are missing. I have searched for them in all the major pharmacies in Yanjing, and they all say they don't have them."
Just as Lin Yan and his companion were about to open the door, his female secretary walked down the corridor carrying two bags of medicinal herbs.

"A few ingredients are missing?" Lin Yan heard this, turned around, and frowned in confusion.
"Yes, Mr. Lin, there are three medicines on this piece of paper that are not sold in major pharmacies in various regions."
The female secretary nodded, glanced at the white paper in her hand, and replied.
