Chapter 441: Coming in a Snowy Day

“Shall I take you up there to have a look?”

A young man with a big smile on his face was standing outside the door. His smile was as bright as suns.h.i.+ne. He was looking at a beauty in the snow.

“Hi, Zhenghe,” said Su Xiaoxue.

She smiled at Guo Zhenghe. Her smile was as pretty as a flower, or a painting, which touched Guo Zhenghe’s heart.

“Let’s go. Let me take you to the Great Wall to watch the snow.” Guo Zhenghe walked to Su Xiaoxue.

“I was just talking about it, is all. By the way, you don’t need to work today?” asked Su Xiaoxue, smiling.

“I took a day off,” said Guo Zhenghe. “Shall we go?”

“No, I’m fine staying here. I was just talking,” said Su Xiaoxue.

“Where are you two going?” A good-looking woman came out of the house.

“Mom,” said Su Xiaoxue.

“Ma’am,” said Guo Zhenghe.

“h.e.l.lo, Zhenghe, you don’t work today?” asked Song Ruiping.

“No. I took a day off to come to see Xiaoxue,” said Guo Zhenghe.

“You want to go to the Great Wall to watch the snow?” Song Ruiping’s finger went though Su Xiaoxue’s long hair. She looked at her daughter with emotion.

Su Xiaoxue just smiled.

“Ma’am, since Xiaoxue wants to go the Great Wall, I can take her there,” said Guo Zhenghe.

“Probably not today. Dr. Chen is going to visit soon,” said Song Ruiping.

“I see. I haven’t seen Dr. Chen for some time myself,” said Guo Zhenghe.

“Let’s go inside,” said Song Ruiping.

As soon as they had entered the house, an elderly man who was in good spirits arrived at Su Xiaoxue’s house.

“h.e.l.lo, Dr. Chen,” said Song Ruiping.

“h.e.l.lo, Dr. Chen,” said Su Xiaoxue.

“Hi, Xiaoxue. Oh, Zhenghe’s here too,” said Dr. Chen with a smile.

He treated the two youngsters differently. The beautiful Su Xiaoxue was like his granddaughter. She had been a well-mannered girls since she was little. Everybody liked her, especially people of his generation. As for Guo Zhenghe, he didn’t like him much.

“Come here, let me take a look at you.” Dr. Chen checked Su Xiaoxue’s pulse. “Hmmm, you are recovering well.”

“I have the same feeling. I feel stronger every single day,” said Su Xiaoxue.

“This is really unbelievable!” said Dr. Chen with a big sigh.

“I can move my fingers and arms a little bit now,” said Su Xiaoxue as she gently moved her arms and fingers. Although the movement was very subtle, Dr. Chen could see it.

“Great!” said Dr. Chen gladly. “When will Dr. w.a.n.g come back?”

“I sent Chen Ying to where Dr. w.a.n.g lives a short while ago. He said he would come back, but not now. He hasn’t booked the air ticket yet. Apparently he’s got something to deal with in his hometown at the moment,” said Song Ruiping. “By the way, Xiaoxue just said she wants to go to Great Wall. What do you think?”

“Well, probably not now. It’s very cold outside,” said Dr. Chen after hesitating for a moment.

Although Su Xiaoxue had been recovering with a rapid speed, she had been ill for too long and had lost her fundamental health. It was no good for her to be exposed in extreme cold or hot weather for too long.

“Okay, she can wait,” said Song Ruiping.

“That’s fine with me,” said Su Xiaoxue.

Guo Zhenghe left the house after chatting with Su Xiaoxue for a while.

“Xiaoxue, call me if you want to go out,” said Guo Zhenghe.

“Okay,” said Su Xiaoxue with a smile.

“Ma’am, Dr. Chen, I’m leaving. See you later,” said Guo Zhenghe.

“Okay,” said Song Ruiping. “Drive safe.”

“Zhenghe seems to be a very thoughtful kid,” said Dr. Chen with a smile.

“Yes,” said Song Ruiping briefly with a smile.

“Xiaoxue, What is this unique energy inside your body?” asked Dr. Chen.

“Oh, It’s my Qi,” said Su Xiaoxue.

“Qi? How did you get it?” asked Dr. Chen.

Although he had never practiced Kung Fu, he had seen how Qi worked. The only thing was the Qi inside Su Xiaoxue’s body was gentle but thick, unlike the more vigorous Qi he had come across before.

“Dr. w.a.n.g gave it to me initially,” said Su Xiaoxue.

“Dr. w.a.n.g?” said Dr. Chen with surprise.

“He taught you Kung Fu?” Song Ruiping was also very surprised, because Su Xiaoxue had never told her about this before.

“No, how could that be possible, Mom? I was still stuck in bed when Dr. w.a.n.g came to see me the first few times. How could he teach me Kung Fu? He just told me a few scriptures,” said Su Xiaoxue.

“Scriptures?” Both Dr. Chen and Song Ruiping were surprised.

“Yes, scriptures from Taoist cla.s.sics. Because I had nothing to do when I was lying in bed, I just repeated those scriptures in mind over and over again. In the end, some Qi started to grow in my body. Dr. w.a.n.g detected it last time. He told me how to induce and control the Qi,” said Su Xiaoxue.

“No wonder you’ve been reading those Taoism cla.s.sics,” said Song Ruiping.

“This is your chance, Xiaoxue,” said Dr. Chen. “Qi from Taoism only comes by luck, not by searching for it.”

“Dr. Chen, is it going to have any negative impact on Xiaoxue’s health?” asked Song Ruiping.

“No. People practicing Taoism tend to maintain their health easily. Taoism Qi is solid and gentle. It can adjust one’s body function and unblock blood vessels. It is completely harmless to human body,” said Dr. Chen. “That Dr. Chen is such a genius.”

“Yes,” said Song Ruiping.

She also found that her daughter’s eyes lit up every time she talked about w.a.n.g Yao. Su Xiaoxue’s feeling about w.a.n.g Yao was not simply wors.h.i.+p.

Is she in love with w.a.n.g Yao?

That was what Song Ruiping worried about most.

To be honest, Song Ruiping thought w.a.n.g Yao was a very talented young man. His extraordinary medical skills alone could make him a suitable candidate to be Su Xiaoxue’s husband. However, Chen Ying told her that w.a.n.g Yao had a girlfriend. She didn’t want her daughter to have one-sided love for w.a.n.g Yao.

Her daughter had already suffered a horrible experience. She wouldn’t allow her daughter to be hurt once again, physically or psychologically.

However, what if Su Xiaoxue was in love with w.a.n.g Yao?

“Ruiping?” said Dr. Chen.

“Yes, Dr. Chen,” said Song Ruiping.

“I’ve seen Xiaoxue, it is time for me to leave,” said Dr. Chen.

“Just one second, Dr. Chen.” Song Ruiping quickly took out a well wrapped container with tea inside.

“This tea is from the south, I hope you’ll like it,” said Song Ruiping.

“Thank you, you know I love drinking tea,” said Dr. Chen. “Oh, it’s black tea, nice.” He took over the container with a smile. Song Ruiping walked Dr. Chen to the door.

It was still snowing.

Su Xiaoxue looked through the window.

I wonder if it is cold and snowy where Dr. w.a.n.g is.

. . .

“It’s getting cold in the village. There was no heater in the cla.s.sroom,” said Wei Hai with a sigh.

He just came back from Jia County.

“No heater?” w.a.n.g Yao didn’t notice it when he was there.

“That’s right. It has been snowing for days in Qinzhou. The temperature there dropped to five degrees below zero. It was freezing in the cla.s.srooms,” said Wei Hai.

“That’s too harsh for the students. They must have heat. Do you think they can get heaters installed in the cla.s.srooms?” asked w.a.n.g Yao.

“I don’t know,” said Wei Hai.

“Well, let’s meet with Yuantu to discuss this in the afternoon. We can send them thick clothes first, then arrange the heater to be installed in the cla.s.srooms,” said w.a.n.g Yao.

“Sounds good,” said Wei Hai. “Those poor kids.”

His recent trip to Jia County made him think a lot.

“I have decided to donate at least 200,000 yuan every year to support those poor kids,” said Wei Hai.

Given the size of his business, 200,000 yuan was nothing to him. However, it was a huge amount of money for those kids. 200,000 yuan was more than enough to change the lives of those kids in the village.

“Okay,” said w.a.n.g Yao. He had also decided to donate part of the clinic fees to those children.

“You know what? Those kids are so innocent. I brought some vacuum-packed seafood with me when I visited them. Most of them have never seen anything like it, let alone have eaten it before. They ate all the seafood I gave them,” said Wei Hai. “I’ve spoken to the headmaster. I will send vacuum-packed seafood to the school every month. The kids need good nutrition.”

Wei Hai’s business was related to marine aquaculture and processing, so it was really convenient for him to send seafood regularly to the school. He only needed to arrange the transport, which was not too difficult for him.

“I plan to visit Jia County again in near future,” said Wei Hai.

“I’ll go with you,” said w.a.n.g Yao.

“Okay,” said Wei Hai.

“By the way, has construction of the road started in the village?” asked w.a.n.g Yao.

“Yes. I think the road will boost the economy of the village,” said Wei Hai. “Mingbao told me he was going to take a trip to the village, too. I’ve also met Miss Han. She’s a nice girl.”

“Shall we catch up today to talk about it?” asked w.a.n.g Yao.

“Good idea,” said Wei Hai.

w.a.n.g Yao and his friends got together again to discuss how to support the children in the village in Jia County. This was their first charity activity since the establishment of their charity fund. They wanted it to be perfect.

“Shall we talk about it in a restaurant?” asked w.a.n.g Mingbao.

“Okay,” said w.a.n.g Yao.

During the meeting, everyone was given different tasks.

Since w.a.n.g Yao, w.a.n.g Mingbao, Wei Hai, and Tian Yuantu were not so busy, they decided to go to Jia County together.

“I’ve arranged the winter clothes to be sent to the kids,” said Tian Yuantu.
