“Doctor Wang, how are you? Welcome,” Song Ruiping said.
“How are you, Lady Song?” Wang Yao asked.
After a bit of small talk, Song Ruiping said goodbye and left. She had just wanted to simply welcome Wang Yao. She told her daughter the news after she returned home.
“The Doctor’s arrived?” Su Xiaoxue laughed hearing the news.
Song Ruiping felt delighted but was also worried seeing her daughter so happy. Her daughter’s mood always obviously changed every time she heard Doctor Wang’s name. How could she not know her daughter’s special feelings for Doctor Wang?
Ah! Song Ruiping happily sighed. She would try her best to meet her daughter’s requirements if it was other business. As for this, it could not be forced.
The next morning, Chenying got up early. She found Wang Yao performing a stance. He was naturally standing still like a horse.
Wang Yao had released his neixi to the outside to communicate with the heaven and ground. He withdrew his gong in about an hour.
Two people came to Su’s home after breakfast. Song Ruiping and her daughter waited in the living room.
“How are you, Doctor Wang?” Su Xiaoxue asked.
“Good, thank you. How are you, Su Xiaoxue?” Wang Yao replied.
Su Xiaoxue seemed to be more beautiful since they had met each other a while ago. She had the type of beauty that left one feeling amazed and could easily make one feel like they had lost their soul at the sight of her.
“How have you been feeling recently?” Wang Yao asked.
“I feel much better,” she replied.
Su Xiaoxue could not yet stand up to move, but her arms could more easily do some movements.
“Good. Let me check.” Wang Yao carefully looked her over.
Since undergoing rehabilitation, her heat toxins were already almost eradicated. Next would be recovering the damaged channels and collaterals. Additionally, the neixi inside her body had become much stronger.
Wang Yao took out the prescribed Blood Deblocking Powder after his diagnosis. After she took the cup of medicine, he dredged the blood and acupoints to stimulate the medicine absorption.
Su Xiaoxue’s beautiful face somehow quickly became ruddy like a ripened apple.
“Rest for 30 minutes and try to stimulate your neixi,” Wang Yao said.
“OK, Sir,” Su Xiaoxue responded.
But, she could not calm down, let alone stimulate her neixi. Thankfully, during this time, it tended to be a natural operation. So, it did not make a big difference.
After resting for around 30 minutes, Wang Yao treated her again. This time it was to eradicate the heat toxins inside her body via neixi while transmitting part of his neixi into her body. It was the same treatment process he gave to Sun Yunsheng.
The process of eliminating the heat toxins was slow because there was only a little left in her body. She could eradicate it via operating her neixi by herself, even without Wang Yao’s treatment. Except, it would take much longer. His treatment helped her control the neixi.
During the treatment, Su Xiaoxue could not calm down. She felt strange. Her mind became chaotic as soon as she saw Wang Yao. It was full of weird thoughts, even though she read many Taoist scripture to make her heart peaceful.
“How am I?” she whispered to herself.
“What?” Wang Yao had outstanding hearing, so he could hear Su Xiaoxue’s sound.
“Ah, nothing, Sir,” Xu Xiaoxue hurriedly replied.
“Do you feel uncomfortable?” he asked.
“No, I feel very comfortable,” she said.
Song Ruiping saw it all. It was possible that her daughter was falling in love with Doctor Wang.
It was not really a surprise. Doctor Wang had brought her back from the edge of death when she was in desperation. He had lit a lamp when her life was in darkness. Additionally, to conduct the treatment, skin contact was needed. Her skin was still under the recovery since it had been totally ruined.
Song Ruiping knew her daughter’s thoughts. She also knew that Doctor Wang had a fiancé. Who could she do? Unrequited love was the most hurtful kind. She could not stand seeing her daughter get hurt anymore.
The treatment ended around 11 a.m. Wang Yao prepared to leave. There was one more guest visiting Su’s house. The man had a bunch of flowers in his hands. His smile was like the sunlight in winter. It was Guo Zhenghe
“Aunt, Xiaoxue? When did Doctor Wang come up?” he asked.
“Yesterday,” Song Ruiping replied.
“Excellent. We just talked about you days ago,” Guo Zhenghe said.
“I was just leaving,” Wang Yao said. “You can continue your chatting.”
“I’ll see you out,” Song Ruiping said.
Su Xiaoxue followed to help send him out at the gate. She was sitting in the wheelchair.
“It’s cold in the yard. Do go back in quickly,” Wang Yao said.
“Ah, be careful on your way, Sir,” she said.
Wang Yao shook his hand toward them and left with Chen Ying.
“Does Mr. Guo usually come by?” he asked.
“Yes, he comes here to see Miss Chen,” Chen Ying replied.
“Isn’t he the mayor? Is he in leisure?” Wang Yao asked.
“He is not the mayor of the town. He is a county magistrate,” Chen Ying replied.
“Did I remember it wrong or did he get a promotion?” Wang Yao asked.
“He got a promotion,” Chen Ying said with a smile.
“We will go see your younger brother tomorrow. You can contact them,” Wang Yao said.
“Good,” Chen Ying happily said.
“Xiaoxue looks better and better,” Guo Zhenghe said while standing in Su Xiaoxue’s living room.
Since Wang Yao had just finished her treatment, she was at her best. Her Qi and blood were exuberant, and her face was ruddy.
“Ah, yes,” Song Ruiping replied. “How’s your recent working going?”
“Pretty good. We are attracting businesses and investments, and deciding which companies can go to the town to build factories,” Guo Zhenghe said.
“How are your parents doing?” Song Ruiping asked.
“Pretty good,” he replied.
Guo Zhenghe did not stay at Su’s house too long. He just chatted with Song Ruiping and Su Xiaoxue for a while. He said goodbye to them, leaving the nice-smelling flowers behind.
“Xiaoxue, how is Zhenghe?” Song Ruiping asked.
“Brother Zhenghe is good,” Su Xiaoxue replied. She did not know why her mother suddenly asked her this question.
“Really?” Song Ruiping wondered.
…
Wang Yao went to his yard and cleared it up a bit. Then, he went to visit his second aunt. He brought her some specialty products from his home, which was his mother’s requirement. She said his second aunt like to eat them.
“Xiao Yao, do come on in.” His second aunt had been waiting for him since she had known the news. “When did you come back?”
“Yesterday,” Wang Yao replied.
“How long will you stay for?” she asked.
“Maybe a week,” Wang Yao said.
…
In Dao, an old man was continuously coughing. He looked pretty bad. Cough! Cough!
“How are you feeling, Lao Lin?” Sun Zhengrong carefully asked. They had just gone outside.
“It does not matter.” The old man shook his hands. Though he said what he did, he had been feeling short of breath since he had been hurt.
Ring! Ring! Sun Zhengrong’s phone was ringing. It was a strange phone number. “Hello.”
“It has been a long time since we last met.” A burst of coughing came through the phone.
“You are not very well,” Sun Zhengrong said.
“Yes, I felt worse and worse, so that I could not wait anymore. Lin Sitao won’t live any longer, and you will be the next,” the man on the phone said.
The dial tone suddenly went busy. Sun Zhengrong went black in his face.
“Was it him?” Uncle Lin asked.
“Yes, I’ll have someone take you back to the village,” Sun Zhengrong said.
“No need to. I’ve brought some medicine.” He had just drank a small cup of medicine and vomited a mouthful of blood to release his breath. “I consulted Doctor Wang. The medicine can restrain all venomous insects.”
“Ah, good.” Sun Zhengrong breathed a sigh of relief.
The old man was a hero. He had followed him while he built his career and even made such great effort in old age. He could not be hurt.
“And, those people. Have you found where they are living?” Sun Zhengrong asked.
“No,” Uncle Lin replied.
Sun Zhengrong was confused. He had increased the amount of the reward to kill them to $30 million, which attracted the underground gangs in Dao to act with excitement.
Outside a house in Dao, two men were hiding in an entrance of an alley to watch a building close by.
“Are you sure it is here?” one of the men asked.
“Yes,” the other man replied.
“Where do they come from?” the first man asked.
“It’s said that they were from Shun, but they wear some special ornaments of Miao Territory,” the other man replied.
