Wang Yao didn't stay at Su Xiaoxue's house for too long, because Su Xiaoxue was fully recovered. She seemed to be keen to leave her house and travel. She was particularly interested in Wang Yao's clinic and village. However, Wang Yao was not ready to be her company in the village.
”You promised I could come,” Su Xiaoxue said.
He had promised, but he was not ready.
”Has Miss Su been out a lot lately?” Wang Yao asked Chen Ying after he left Su Xiaoxue's house.
”Yes, she goes out quite often,” Chen Ying said with a smile. ”I guess it is some sort of compensation for being bed bound for so many years. She's been to a lot of places in Beijing and Tianjin.” She had traveled with Su Xiaoxue quite frequently in recent months.
”That is understandable,” Wang Yao said.
If he was the one stuck in bed for years, he would travel around the world once he recovered. He wouldn't stay at home to appreciate how lucky he was.
”She really wants to visit your clinic and village,” Chen Ying said.
”I'll see what I can do,” Wang Yao said.
He came to Beijing to see her and cured her. He left a trace of Qi in her body and taught her a paragraph of scripture. It was probably destiny. He would welcome her if she really wanted to visit him.
Chen Ying picked her brother from the mental institute in the afternoon. Chen Zhou was normal. Chen Ying believed Chen Zhou could stay normal for a month after taking Wang Yao's decoction.
”Thank you, Dr. Wang,” Chen Zhou politely said. Thanks to Wang Yao, his mental status had improved significantly.
”You should thank your sister,” Wang Yao said. ”I have something to do. I won't be back tonight.”
”Where are you going to stay?” Chen Ying asked.
”I'll find somewhere,” Wang Yao said. ”Don't worry about me. It's a lovely night. I want to walk around.”
Beijing was a big city. He could stay anywhere.
He didn't even have dinner in the cottage. He walked out and had a stroll in Beijing. The evening in Beijing was more alive than daytime.
Wang Yao walked around without any purpose. When it was getting late, he checked himself into a hotel for the night.
The next morning, Chen Zhouchuan came to the cottage after hearing that Wang Yao was in Beijing. ”What? He is not here?”
”No, Dr. Chen,” Chen Ying said.
”Where is he?” Chen Zhouchuan asked.
”I'm not sure. Dr. Wang said last night he wanted to walk around Beijing to appreciate the view at night,” Chen Ying said.
”What's good about the view at night?” Chen Zhouchuan asked.
”This is,” he saw a young man with bright eyes in the courtyard, ”your brother?”
”Yes,” Chen Ying said.
”He's fine now?” Chen Zhouchuan asked. He knew about Chen Zhou's condition but never treated him. Chen Ying never asked him to treat her brother. He wouldn't offer assistance without being asked.
”Dr. Wang has seen him. He's be fine for at least a month,” Chen Ying said.
”That's good,” Chen Zhouchuan said.
”Is there anything you need Dr. Wang to do?” Chen Ying asked.
”Nothing, nothing.” Chen Zhouchuan shook his hand. ”I just want to have a chat with him. I should no longer disturb you two since your brother has been away for such a long time.”
”OK, see you later,” Chen Ying said.
”See you later.” Chen Zhouchuan shook her hand with a smile and left the cottage.
”Sis, who was that?” Chen Zhou asked after Chen Zhouchuan left.
”A traditional Chinese practitioner,” Chen Ying said.
”Is he good?” Chen Zhou asked.
”Of course, he's one of the best in Beijing,” Chen Ying said. ”I was going to ask him to see you, but I didn't after thinking about it.”
”That's fine,” Chen Zhou said.
Although he had stayed in the mental institute the past few years, he didn't stop learning and gaining knowledge when he was sober. He knew vaguely who Chen Zhouchuan was. He knew his sister had done a lot for him.
”Thank you, Sis,” Chen Zhou sincerely said.
”Silly boy, you don't need to thank me. As long as you are no longer sick, I'm happy to do anything for you,” Chen Ying said with a smile. Her eyes were full of tears.
Wang Yao went to the Wu family's house.
”Continue to give him the decoction,” Wang Yao said.
