Chapter 806: Chapter 808 Missing Grandpa
Xiao Yifei found it amusing, why start getting hung up on such a trivial question. “Ah, if only Grandpa were still here, he would always find nice words to comfort , but now Grandpa has left forever. In this world, I no longer have any real family.”
Thinking of Grandpa, Xiao Yifei couldn’t help but feel a pang of sadness. He always thought Grandpa didn’t love him enough, but it wasn’t until after Grandpa passed away that he realized this seemingly unloving behavior was actually to protect him from getting hurt. However, he misunderstood Grandpa for so long, and now he’ll never have the chance to say sorry, leaving Xiao Yifei full of regret and guilt.
Grandpa was a good doctor; everyone who knew him said this about him: “Truly a reincarnation of Hua Tuo, his dical skill was extraordinary.” In fact, Grandpa wasn’t just skilled, more importantly, he had a kind heart, treating those without money who were turned away by other hospitals, Grandpa would always first cure them, never making it difficult for them regarding money.
When it ca to the wealthy, Grandpa just did what a doctor should do. Xiao Yifei suddenly rembered one year when a rich man fell seriously ill. After many ineffective treatnts at other hospitals, the family sohow heard about Grandpa’s fad title as a Divine Doctor and repeatedly asked him to treat the rich man.
Grandpa only went once. After seeing the patient, he told the family, “His illness is already beyond cure, even if Hua Tuo were here, he couldn’t save him.” The family still refused to believe, thinking Grandpa was just displeased with the amount of money they were offering.
The lady of the house said, “Money is not an issue; as long as you cure him, whatever you want, I can give it to you, even a new hospital for your family. You are just a poor doctor, but as long as you cure him, I will give you endless riches.”
Upon hearing this, Grandpa was very angry; not everything can be asured by money, and his dical skills should not be so tarnished. What others didn’t know was that the title of Divine Doctor also ca at a price, each ti he risked his life to save soone critically ill.
Grandpa’s life was one of modest ans. Although his salary at the hospital was substantial, he always shared so money with those unfortunate people who couldn’t afford treatnt, so would go towards buying dicinal herbs, books, and dical equipnt for his research.
Leaving just enough to et daily needs, so Xiao Yifei started working part-ti early on to earn his tuition and pocket money. Grandpa was truly indifferent to money; he didn’t care what he ate, what he wore, nor did he care about people gossiping behind his back about him being a poor doctor.
As long as he could pursue his dical research, everything else ant nothing to him. Xiao Yifei suddenly realized that so of Grandpa’s traits had indeed influenced him, such as that sense of pride and dignity.
Perhaps influenced by Grandpa, he resented how so rich people looked down on others, thinking money could solve everything. Xiao Yifei never missed Grandpa as much as he did at this mont; it seed like he never truly understood Grandpa until now.
At this mont, he suddenly felt that in life, finding sothing you truly love and dedicating your life to researching it, is such a happy thing. Many people drift through life never knowing what they really love, which is truly sad.
Do I truly love dicine from the bottom of my heart? Xiao Yifei asked himself sincerely. It must be love. dicine has been intertwined with my entire life; since I was born and couldn’t rember, dicine has been a part of my life.
Moreover, over the years, I have never considered doing a job unrelated to dicine. Looks like I truly love dicine. Xiao Yifei smiled.
Xiao Yifei returned ho very late, thinking the two lovely ladies had already gone to bed. Opening the door and entering the room, he found the living room light still on, with Tang Rong semi-reclined on the sofa, her laptop still on, suggesting she fell asleep from exhaustion before finishing work.
Tang Rong’s current look was very tempting, with a strand of hair casually draping across her face, making her seem even more laid-back, her fair, long neck, and she wore a silk pink nightgown, revealing glimpses of her figure, rising and falling with her breath.
Tang Rong looked like a small baby as she slept, serene and innocent, a picture of harmlessness. Oh, how nice it would be if she were like this when awake. Xiao Yifei stared for a long ti, swallowed, averted his gaze, and prepared to head to the bedroom. He then thought it was rather chilly at night, and Tang Rong didn’t cover herself with a blanket, surely she would catch a cold.
Saying this, he returned to the bedroom, took a blanket, and gently covered Tang Rong with it. Although he was already very careful with his movents, perhaps sensing soone’s gaze or movent, Tang Rong woke up at this mont. Opening her eyes, she found herself on the sofa with Xiao Yifei standing beside her. When did he return?
Unable to resist, she said, “What are you doing here? Were you planning to do sothing bad while I was asleep? Do you think about peeking at my body every day?” Xiao Yifei blushed imdiately, having just peeked at Tang Rong’s alluring figure under her nightgown.
Maybe Tang Rong had been awake and was just pretending to sleep while he was staring. He didn’t want to expose his sinister thoughts to Tang Rong, so he pretended to be righteous, raising his voice a notch, “Who has nothing better to do than to peek at you? I was just worried you might catch a cold, so I covered you with a blanket. Look, it’s still on you! You’re just biting the hand that feeds you.”
Xiao Yifei blurted it all out without giving Tang Rong a chance to retort, then turned and went into his bedroom, avoiding any further scolding from her.
In the bedroom, Xiao Yifei stayed for a while before realizing sothing seed off with Tang Rong today. On the phone tonight, Tang Rong didn’t say much, unlike before when she’d always lash out or hit at the sight of him. It’s not that Xiao Yifei was a masochist, but after months, he had grown accustod to their typical interaction, and Tang Rong suddenly not opposing him seed odd.
Could sothing have happened? I better go check, Xiao Yifei thought.
He went to the living room and saw Tang Rong holding her laptop with a troubled expression. He cautiously asked, “Sister Rong, is everything okay? You seem different than usual. You didn’t even get mad at today.”
Tang Rong gave him a sidelong glance and said, “Are you hoping sothing happens to ? Hoping I scold you every day? There’s nothing wrong with , it’s just that the company is rushing a project this week, I’m so busy with work, I don’t have the ti to deal with you.” Hearing this, Xiao Yifei felt relieved, having worried Tang Rong might be heartbroken or having family troubles. Everything seed fine.
Speaking of breakups, Xiao Yifei wondered if Tang Rong had a boyfriend. How co she never ntioned it? That ans she probably doesn’t have one. True, with soone as fierce as her, what good is being good-looking if no guy dares to like her.
