“Yes, we are getting ready to go out,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“Are you going to Xiaoxue’s home?” Guo Zhenghe asked.
“Yes,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
“Let’s go there together. Where is it?” Guo Zhenghe asked with a smile.
The three people went to the Su family home together. Guo Zhenghe asked w.a.n.g Yao lots of questions on their way. Most of them were not essential. The most important question was, “When could Xiaoxue stand up?”
“It’s hard to say,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
After the last diagnosis and treatment, he was a bit more confident about that. If there was no accident, Su Xiaoxue could stand up within 10 days, but he did not know why. He just did not want to tell Guo Zhenghe, who was generally bright and smiling in front of him.
“Let me know if you need any help in Jing,” Guo Zhenghe said.
w.a.n.g Yao knew his words were completely a courtesy. Now that he was in Jing, the Su family would do their best to meet w.a.n.g Yao’s need. There was no need to let Guo Zhenghe know. Plus, w.a.n.g Yao felt that Guo Zhenghe had a lot on his mind.
It was not too far from the Su house to the small courtyard where w.a.n.g Yao was temporarily living. They arrived in less than an hour.
“h.e.l.lo, aunt.” Guo Zhenghe smiled and greeted Song Ruiping respectfully.
“h.e.l.lo, Zhenghe, haven’t you gone back yet?” she asked.
“Ah, the end of the year is coming. I have some things to deal with in Jing. There is also a project that needs to go through the formalities, but I will return soon,” Guo Zhenghe replied.
It was reasonable that various functional departments must be busy at the end of year. The previous year needed to be sorted out and summarized, and the work for the coming year needed to be planned. There tended to be a large number of meetings, especially for Guo Zhenghe. As one of the main leaders in the county, he should be busier. But, he wiped it all out with just some simple words. It was the advantage of having a background. No one would say anything about him even if he was absent.
“h.e.l.lo, Sir.” Su Xiaoxue was very happy to see w.a.n.g Yao. Every time she saw him, she felt particularly happy.
“Xiaoxue, do you feel better?” Guo Zhenghe asked.
“I do feel better, thank you, Brother Zhenghe,” she replied.
“Doctor w.a.n.g, please give her a check,” Song Ruiping said.
“OK, please come with me,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
It was the same treatment as the previous one, except it was much longer. w.a.n.g Yao inserted the needle slowly. The acupoints were very accurate. He changed the needle during the process because he changed his original thoughts. He even slightly changed the meridians where he would insert needle.
“How do you feel?” he asked.
AA bit numb and itchy,” Su Xiaoxue replied.
“Is it serious?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“Not particularly serious,” Su Xiaoxue whispered.
w.a.n.g Yao waited for a while. He then continued to insert needles.
Su Xiaoxue had some strange reactions in her body. She felt that the neixi in her body seemed to be more active than before. It only appeared in the past when w.a.n.g Yao injected his neixi into her body.
w.a.n.g Yao transferred his neixi into the needle inserted it into her meridians to allow it to integrate into her body. She felt a bit hot. Sweat began to form on her forehead.
“How do you feel now?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“No discomfort. It is a little hot,” Su Xiaoxue said.
“It will be better later,” he replied.
It was a normal reaction. The blood circulation in her body was accelerating because of w.a.n.g Yao’s treatment. It was a result of multiple treatments of drugs, neixi and acupuncture.
“How long will you stay in Jing this time?” Su Xiaoxue asked.
“It’s hard to say. The initial plan is a week,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
“So short?” Su Xiaoxue asked nearly subconsciously. One week? Now, today was the third day. No, it was the fourth day. More than a half of the period had pa.s.sed.
“Short? Not short,” w.a.n.g Yao said with a smile.
Su Xiaoxue wanted him to stay for longer. w.a.n.g Yao didn’t know what it was like in this woman’s beautiful, suffocating heart.
“I still want to thank you for your help,” she said.
“Lady Song has already paid for the consultation” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“That’s my mother’s appreciation. It is different from mine,” Su Xiaoxue whispered.
“Let’s talk about it when you are completely cured,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
Song Ruiping, who was on the sidelines, heard the dialogue between the two people. She also keenly heard the changes in her daughter’s tone.
Sure enough! What can I do now? She sighed softly.
“Is your home in Haiqu?” Su Xiaoxue asked.
“Yes,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
“Is the sea beautiful there?” she asked.
“Well, pretty beautiful,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
“When I am cured, I will go there to visit you. I hope that you can take me to see the sea.” Su Xiaoxue turned her head and smiled at w.a.n.g Yao.
“Ah, good,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
In fact, he lived in Lianshan County, which was still a distance away from Haiqu, but it was not important. Su Xiaoxue was like a little princess with her special ident.i.ty. Her family would meet her every requirement no matter where she wanted to go, domestic or abroad.
But this time? He looked at Song Ruiping inexplicably and found that she was also somewhat helpless.
Then, Su Xiaoxue said something that made w.a.n.g Yao sigh. “Sir, could you be my teacher?”
“Teacher? What would I teach you?” he asked.
“Neixi, medical skills… In fact, you have taught me a lot,” Su Xiaoxue said.
w.a.n.g Yao didn’t know whether to promise or refuse when he saw the girl’s clear eyes. “I can teach you to write, but don’t call me teacher.”
“How could it be, teacher?” Su Xiaoxue asked with a smile.
w.a.n.g Yao thought, I got another apprentice. How could this be?
This change was beyond the expectation of everyone present. Only Su Xiaoxue smiled happily.
“As long as you are happy,” Song Ruiping said under her breath.
Guo Zhenghe did not hear the dialogue between them because he and Chen Ying were both in the living room.
“Sister, I have something to ask you,” he said.
“Please go ahead, Guo child,” Chen Ying said.
“Hey, don’t call me that!” Guo Zhenghe was a bit too serious.
“Since Doctor w.a.n.g has been in Jing, has he seen any other patients besides Xiaoxue?” he asked.
“Yes, he has seen Xiao Zhou for his disease,” Chen Ying replied.
“Xiao Zhou, your younger brother?” he asked.
“Correct,” she replied.
“So, no other people except for Xiao Zhou?” Guo Zhenghe drank a cup of tea.
“Well, no. Chen Lao came with his family and asked him to see old man Wu, but Doctor w.a.n.g did not agree to that,” Chen Ying said. She did not try to hide it from him. She knew she could not keep it secret.
“Why? Because of that rule?” Guo Zhenghe asked.
“I don’t know,” she replied.
The two people chatted in the living room. Guo Zhenghe was very relaxed, but Chen Ying seemed to be somewhat cautious.
…
In Dao, a man shouted, “You looking for a fight?”
“Here they are,” another man said.
A car suddenly stopped on the road and stopped a person. The man was moving very quickly. He was jumping to the side like a rabbit. When his right hand trembled, something slipped out of the cuff. It was like some kind of lighting.
The person stood firm while another car came. Two cars caught him in the middle. The window quickly came down. The man fell to the ground with a few m.u.f.fled sounds.
“High-tech things are still very useful,” one of them men said.
“Nonsense, hurry up, or the cooked duck will fly later on,” the other man said.
The two people in the car, with rubber gloves, quickly put the person who fell on the ground into a sack and put him in the car. They then left.
An hour later, among the abandoned factories in Dao, a man who was hoisted up slowly awoke.
“He’s awake,” a man said.
There were a few people around him holding sticks in their hands.
“Brother, sorry to wrong you, but we have no other way,” a man said. “Please wait a moment.”
The door opened and four people came in. They were led by a middle-aged man.
“h.e.l.lo, Brother Chen,” one of the men said.
“h.e.l.lo, this is the person?” Brother Chen asked.
“Yes,” one of the men replied.
Brother Chen looked at the face of the man carefully. He then looked at his hands and wrists. “Yes, it’s him.”
“Hey, my brothers have been following him for a long time,” one of the men said.
“Here is the money!” Brother Chen took out a box and opened it. The things inside were red and piled high.
