Su Zhixing, who heard the noise, came out, laughed and said, “You’re here! You shouldn’t have brought gifts!”
“Come in, please,” SoSu Zhixing, who heard the noise, came out, laughed, and said, “You’re here. You shouldn’t have brought gifts.”
“Come in, please,” Song Ruiping said.
“h.e.l.lo, Auntie,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“Come, sit down,” Song Ruiping said.
After sitting in the living room, the family chatted for a while about normal family matters. Song Ruiping asked w.a.n.g Yao about his parents’ health. She did not say much, but Su Zhixing asked all sorts of questions.
After a while, Su Xianghua came home.
“h.e.l.lo, Uncle,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“Hi, when did you arrive?” Su Xianghua asked.
“Last night,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
“Alright, stay a few more days this time,” Su Xianghua said.
Now that they were all together, the family dinner began. While eating, Su Xiaoxue was constantly smiling. She enjoyed family reunions like this very much, especially with her beloved one.
Looking at her daughter, Song Ruiping sighed to herself, Silly girl.
After the meal, w.a.n.g Yao did not stay too long. He bid his farewells and walked out with Su Xiaoxue.
“Don’t go,” Su Xiaoxue said. “You can stay in the courtyard.”
“It’s alright,” w.a.n.g Yao replied. “I haven’t checked out of my hotel room yet. It’s quite comfortable to stay there.”
“I’ll take you there,” said Su Zhixing, who was eager to spend a little alone time with w.a.n.g Yao.
Su Zhixing and w.a.n.g Yao headed to the hotel.
Without his parents around, the young master of the Su family spoke casually and was very friendly to w.a.n.g Yao as if he wanted to regard him as family. “My brother-in-law, how long are you going to stay in Jing this time?”
“About a week,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
“After that?” Su Zhixing asked.
“Go back to the village and treat patients,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“It’s too monotonous,” Su Zhixing said. “Would you like to live a more fulfilling life?”
“What do you really want to say?” w.a.n.g Yao turned to look at Su Zhixing.
“My place is missing an instructor,” Su Zhixing replied.
“Sorry, I’m not interested.” w.a.n.g Yao laughed.
When they had met last time, this same topic had been brought up. Although Su Zhixing might one day be his brother-in-law, he still would not agree to it.
“You just have to guide them,” Su Zhixing said. “You don’t have to stay there all day. And, you’ll have an extra ident.i.ty. Why not?”
“My skills are not good enough to teach you guys.” w.a.n.g Yao turned his head and looked out of the car window.
At this time, the traffic was busy on the roads of Jing. The lights of buildings on both sides flashed as Jing began to enter its busiest period.
“You are too modest, Brother-in-law.” Su Zhixing called him brother-in-law very smoothly and comfortably. “Remember the man I brought last time?”
“I’ve got some impression,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“Our army individual champion is the best at close combat, but when they were facing you, they didn’t even manage to stir up any waves,” Su Zhixing said. “When he returned, he said people like you are a martial arts master. There are less than a few in the country. I am curious, how do you practice to this extent?”
“Notice the red light ahead,” w.a.n.g Yao said. The car braked steadily with a creak. “Well, practice hard and add a little savvy.”
“And, then?” Su Zhixing asked.
“Nothing,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
“Nothing? How is that possible? Do you think I’m a 3-year-old?” Su Zhixing asked.
“I’m telling the truth, believe it or not,” w.a.n.g Yao replied. “Turn right ahead.”
The car turned right.
“We’re here,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
After getting out of the car, Su Zhixing looked up at the famous international hotel chain and asked, “Do you like living in such places?”
“It’s famous, so it’s easy to book,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
“Oh, so you’re a rich man too, Brother-in-law!” Su Zhixing sighed.
“Want to go up and check it out?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“Sure, it’s still early anyway,” Su Zhixing said.
They went into the elevator together. There were seven men in the elevator.
w.a.n.g Yao turned to look at the man next to him. He was tall, more than 6-foot-2, and very buff. He was surrounded by a relatively smart-looking man, but he looked more capable. These two men were foreigners, resembling Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jason Statham. They had a special scent, which w.a.n.g Yao disliked very much.
Coincidentally, they went up the same floor. The two men entered the same room, several numbers away from w.a.n.g Yao’s room.
“What’s wrong?”
“Those two people have problems.” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“What’s the problem?” Su Zhixing asked.
“They’ve just killed someone,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“What? That’s impossible!” Su Zhixing was shocked.
They were in Jing, after all, the place with the most stringent internal security in the country.
“They likely still have guns,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“For real?” Su Zhixing was doubtful.
“Don’t you believe it?” w.a.n.g Yao asked. “Call the police and ask them to come and look them up.”
“That’s not good,” Su Zhixing said. “They’re foreign friends.”
“Can foreign friends do whatever they want here?” w.a.n.g Yao turned to look at Su Zhixing. “This is our territory, not their colony.”
“Fine, I’ll believe you this time,” Su Zhixing said. “Let me make a call.”
He had friends in Jing because of his family. A police officer quickly arrived at the hotel.
“Wait and watch the show,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
The two of them waited in the corridor.
“Hey, will there be any danger?” Su Zhixing asked.
“Aren’t you a brave soldier?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“Wow, I’m not a fool,” Su Zhixing replied. “What if a gunfight breaks out?”
“It won’t,” w.a.n.g Yao matter-of-factly said.
The plain-clothed police officer called the waiter and asked her to help the other officers open the door. The door opened. The stronger man’s upper body was naked, revealing a lion tattoo.
“Police, routine inspection,” a police officer said.
“What?” The men inside were shocked.
The police officers went in to check the room and soon came out. After a while, Su Zhixing received a call.
He turned to w.a.n.g Yao and said, “It’s your miscalculation this time. There was nothing in there.”
“Impossible!” w.a.n.g Yao exclaimed.
“Hey, believe it or not,” Su Zhixing said.
“Alright, I shall go and take a look,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“Hey, what are you doing? How are you going in?” Su Zhixing asked.
“Tsk, if something happens to me, can you cover for me?” w.a.n.g Yao asked.
“Don’t mess up,” Su Zhixing said. “This is Jing.”
“Don’t worry.” w.a.n.g Yao smiled and waved his hand. He reached out and touched his face. “Can’t you see who I am?”
Su Zhixing was stunned. w.a.n.g Yao was just inches away, but he could not see his face. It was as if his face was covered with a layer of mist.
“What kind of method is that?” Su Zhixing asked.
“Face-changing, the quintessence of Chinese culture,” w.a.n.g Yao replied.
“Stop bullsh*tting,” Su Zhixing said. “Do you think I haven’t seen a face-changing performance? They all have a mask outside. Let me tell you, there are cameras everywhere in this hotel.”
“That’s a problem, but I can get around it from the outside.” w.a.n.g Yao smiled and pointed out the window.
“Stop kidding! This is the 27th floor!” Su Zhixing exclaimed.
Looking down from above, the people below were like ants. Falling from this place would cause him to become mush on the ground with a splat.
“Forget it,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“Yes, that’s right,” Su Zhixing said. “You came to Jing to accompany my sister, not to do such chivalrous things.”
After chatting for a while, Su Zhixing prepared to leave the hotel. Before he left, he reminded w.a.n.g Yao not to be impulsive but to be rational and exercise restraint.
At the Su family residence, Su Xianghua poured a little of the red wine given to them by w.a.n.g Yao.
“Mmm, this is good wine. You should try it,” he said to his wife sitting opposite him.
“Stop praising him,” Song Ruiping laughed and said.
“This wine is quite extraordinary, on par with those famous wines overseas,” Su Xianghua said. “Amazingly, a doctor like him can make such good wine!”
“Can you see that Xiaoxue likes him very much?” Song Ruiping asked.
“Well, that is normal for girls her age,” Su Xianghua replied.
“What’s normal?” Song Ruiping asked. “I’m afraid she’ll lose out!”
“What’s the loss?” Su Xianghua asked. “w.a.n.g Yao is a sincere person. Xiaoxue would not lose out with him.”
“You…”
“Come on, I’ll pour you a gla.s.s,” Su Xianghua said. “Try it. It’s good!”
That night, nothing happened. The next morning, w.a.n.g Yao got up early. The guests were provided free breakfast, so he went out to have some. He happened to meet the stout man he had seen the previous night. The man didn’t have a gun, but he did have a dagger.
Oh, look at him. Is the security around here bad? w.a.n.g Yao thought.
It was warm, so the man wasn’t wearing much. His belongings were carefully hidden. Like the previous night, a person wouldn’t be able to spot a weapon without looking carefully.
The man went to the dining room for breakfast. The more w.a.n.g Yao looked at him, the more he felt that there was a problem with him.
He thought, Hmm, I have an idea.
The foreigner was eating and fell to the ground with a grunt. His body began to convulse uncontrollably.
“What’s the situation?” The people in the restaurant were stunned. “Call a doctor.”
Ambulances soon arrived and took the foreigner away.
ng Ruiping said.
“h.e.l.lo, Auntie,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“Come, sit down,” Song Ruiping said.

They were in Jing, after all, the place with the most stringent internal security in the country.
“They should still have guns on both of them,” w.a.n.g Yao said.
“For real?” Su Zhixing was doubtful.
“You don’t believe it?” w.a.n.g Yao asked. “Call the police and ask them to come and look them up.”
“That’s not good,” Su Zhixing said. “They’re foreign friends.”
