Carson Flores nodded calmly, "Just now, your father's life was hanging by a thread, and I happened to pass by, so I used acupuncture to sustain his life..."
The man's expression was cold and resolute as he said in a deep voice, "Then later, please accompany us to the hospital. When my father wakes up, he will surely reward you handsomely."
Carson Flores slightly curled the corners of his lips. The man's words were polite, but his eyes lacked any trace of gratitude; clearly, he was suspicious of everyone present, including Carson. By asking Carson to go to the hospital, he was implicitly ensuring that Carson didn't flee.
If his father woke up and it became clear that Carson had acted heroically and saved the man's life, then surely he would be richly rewarded; that was not in question. But if his father died or became vegetative, then until the truth was uncovered, everyone there would be under suspicion.
