319 No More Grudge After a Glass of Wine (1/2)
”Thank you so much for your support in the past few weeks,” Zhou Wuyi said to Sang Guzi. He still sounded quite weak.
”Don't worry about it. We've known each other for decades. You don't need to thank me,” Sang Guzi responded as he shook his hand.
”But, I can't do too much for you. If Wang Yao was here, you would probably have almost recovered,” Sang Guzi said.
”Maybe. I also want to see that young man,” Zhou Wuyi said after stabilizing his breathing.
He really wanted to thank Wang Yao in person. After all, Wang Yao saved his life.
”I heard from Zhou Xiong that Wang Yao opened a clinic,” Zhou Wuyi said.
”Really?” Sang Guzi asked. ”Then we should get someone to take a look.”
When they were speaking, Zhou Xiong was giving his son a massage. The basic massage techniques, including pushing, pressing, and touching, were taught by Wang Yao. The treatment outcome was satisfactory. New muscles started to grow in his son's arm, which was no longer like a branch of a dying tree. The skin on the arm also started to become soft and supple. Zhou Wukang could even start to do some simple movement with his left arm, such as flexing his elbow, lifting his left shoulder, and simple finger movements. In the past, he wouldn't haven't dreamed that this would be happening.
”How do you feel?” Zhou Xiong asked.
”I feel good,” Zhou Wukang said with a smile.
Zhou Wukang looked more and more healthy.
”Good. We need to pack up. We are going to Lianshan tomorrow,” Zhou Xiong said.
”To see Uncle Wang?” Zhou Wukang asked.
”Yes,” Zhou Xiong responded.
Zhou Wukang was happy they were going to see Wang Yao. He didn't know why he felt so close to the young doctor.
Hopefully, Dr. Wang will be able to cure Wukang completely this time.
Zhou Xiong had decided this time he wouldn't come home before making sure his son was fully recovered. He had returned home this time for two reasons. First, he wanted to visit his uncle. Second, he needed to money for his son's expensive treatment.
They didn't have many things to pack up. Zhou Xiong told his father about his trip after he had finished.
”Wait a minute, Dr. Sang is here. He also wants to go to Lianshan to meet Dr. Wang,” his father said.
”He's also going?” Zhou Xiong asked.
”Yes. I'm arranging two people to go with him, plus you. Please make sure Dr. Sang will be safe on this trip,” his father said.
…
It was raining early in the morning. The weather was a bit weird. After the first day of autumn, the rain came quite frequently.
”Hello, Hu, what brought you here?” Zhao Sen asked with his signature smile.
People familiar with Zhao Sen knew what was behind his smile. It didn't mean he was a nice person. He would probably stab someone in the back while smiling.
”Someone wants to meet you,” Song Hu said.
”When?” Zhao Sen asked.
”How about today? I'll book a table,” Song Hu responded. He was a bulky, bald man in his 40s with a mustache.
”How could I trouble you? Well, you tell me where you want to go. Let me book a table to meet your friend,” Zhao Sen said.
”Good, Sen, this is why I like you!” Song Hu said as he hit the table.
Meanwhile, Wang Yao drove to meet Wei Hai, who had arranged someone to confirm the meeting.
Wang Yao was ready to meet Zhao Sen, who seemed to be a gangster. If Zhao Sen turned out to be a threat to Wang Yao, he would get rid of him without hesitation.
”I have asked a friend to arrange a meeting with Zhao Sen. We'll have lunch together,” Wei Hai said.
While Wang Yao and Wei Hai were talking, Wei Hai's friend called him.
”It's from the friend I just mentioned,” Wei Hai said. ”Hello… It's me… No problem.”
”They've picked a place,” Wei Hai told Wang Yao after hanging up the phone.
It was a bit passed 10 a.m.
”Is the place far from here?” Wang Yao asked.
”No, it's very close,” Wei Hai said.
”Let's go and have a look,” Wang Yao said.
The place was called Hill Ocean Hotel, a well-known hotel in Haiqu. Inside a private room within the hotel sat Zhao Sen and Song Hu. Each of them had two men standing behind them.
”Hu, I just want to ask one question, is he also a gangster?” Zhao Sen asked.
”You will know when you meet him,” Song Hu replied.
The less Song Hu talked about Wang Yao, the more Zhao Sen was worried. Song Hu was not someone he would mess up with. Song Hu was one of the most powerful and famous gangsters in Haiqu. He started his business in logistics a few years ago, so he hadn't done many illegal things. However, he was still a powerful person compared to Zhao Sen, who was just someone of the younger generation.
