Ch 105: Xiao Shan…
“That…” The atmosphere in the air was very strange, especially with a pair of long, white, straight, and tender legs sitting in the back seat, and a faint scent of perfume permeating the air.
Su Ning didn’t know what brand of perfume it was, or was it shampoo?
Or maybe it was body fragrance?
Su Ning had never smelled this kind of scent before and found it a bit pungent.
“Could you open a window? It’s a bit pungent.”
Wu Mengyao: ……
She felt that Su Ning was different from others.
In the past, when she was on a plane or other means of transportation, even if she wore long pants, the pairs of eyes around her would light up, so brightly that it made her heart tremble, wishing they could weld those eyes onto her legs.
She didn’t understand, weren’t they just a pair of legs? What was so good about them?
But Su Ning was different. As soon as he got in the car… his eyes hardly lingered on her legs, as if she didn’t exist.
She didn’t know what he was looking at, but he wasn’t looking at her, basically ignoring her.
It wasn’t an act. Wu Mengyao had seen many eyes, either undisguised, or hypocritical, secretly looking… but she had never seen eyes as clear as Su Ning’s.
“Okay…” Wu Mengyao said.
“Creak…”
The rear window was opened a crack.
The constant flow of air coming in made the pungent smell a little better.
Su Ning seemed to have thought of something again…
“That…”
“What?”
“I suddenly remembered… you transferred money to me, and I still have to pay taxes. How about you pay my taxes for me?” Su Ning asked.
Wu Mengyao: ……
“Okay.”
“Thank you.” Su Ning smiled.
Driver: Money… is it more important than a rich and beautiful woman? With money… you only have money… but with a rich and beautiful woman… you can have endless money… Young people, you still don’t understand the difference between one full meal and having full meals every day.
…
No words were spoken along the way.
All the way to the hospital, the two went upstairs.
Under Wu Mengyao’s lead, they entered a special ward.
This ward was very luxurious, and the various instruments and living facilities made it look unlike a ward.
Everyone was surprised to see Wu Mengyao bringing back a strange man.
“Mengyao, this is?” a refined woman asked.
“A friend.” Wu Mengyao ignored the gazes of the people around her and led Su Ning straight to a hospital bed. An old man was lying on the bed, looking very weak… as if his Essence, Energy, and Spirit had been drained, and his eyes were a little cloudy.
Seeing Wu Mengyao coming over, two women around thirty years old gently patted Old Master Wu on the bed: “Dad… Mengyao brought her boyfriend to see you. Weren’t you always thinking… of seeing your grandson-in-law before you leave?”
“Take a look, he’s quite handsome.”
Wu Mengyao: ???
Su Ning: ???
Wu Mengyao was about to call out to Grandfather, but when she heard Aunt say this, her expression froze… and she forgot to speak.
She turned her head to look at Su Ning, with a slightly apologetic look!
Su Ning was even more surprised, his expression seemed to say: We agreed to just look at the illness, and I’d get paid whether I looked or not… I’m after your money, but you’re after my body, that won’t do.
Just as Wu Mengyao was about to say something, Old Master Wu, who was lying on the bed resting, looked over and smiled kindly: “Mengyao… you’re here… quickly, let me see what my grandson-in-law looks like.”
Wu Mengyao: “Grandfather, Aunt, he’s not my boyfriend…”
“Mengyao, you can’t do this… a boyfriend is a boyfriend, how can you not admit it? Saying that… will hurt your boyfriend’s heart… don’t worry, our Wu Family isn’t snobbish, we won’t hinder your choice of a partner, as long as you like him.”
They were prejudiced and all thought that Su Ning was Wu Mengyao’s boyfriend. First, Wu Mengyao had never brought a man back before, this was the first time. Second… this man was very handsome, and he was a perfect match for Wu Mengyao. Third… Wu Mengyao herself said he was a friend, a friend… who’s a man? Isn’t that a boyfriend?
“That’s right, Mengyao, you can’t embarrass others…” Old Master Wu said with a smile.
What surprised Su Ning was that there was no complaining in the ward, but rather a harmonious atmosphere… as warm as a family’s daily life, joking when they should joke, teasing when they should tease.
Old Master Wu didn’t like a depressing atmosphere.
Seeing the harmony in the room, Su Ning breathed a sigh of relief…
He was already prepared to be questioned as soon as he entered the door about who he was. Wu Mengyao would answer that he was a miraculous doctor she had invited, and then the Wu Family disciples wouldn’t believe it and would mock him… then he would be filled with anger and want to leave, and Wu Mengyao would beg him bitterly… and he would reluctantly take action… amazing everyone… well, okay… if Jiang Xiaotao were here, she would definitely say this kind of plot.
“Old Master, Mengyao and I are just friends…” Su Ning said.
“Actually, we’re not even friends. I was just Drinking Tea by the roadside, and she thought I was pleasing to the eye and thought I was some kind of miraculous doctor, and insisted on pulling me over to take a look. I said I wasn’t… but she wouldn’t believe me and wanted me to come and take a look, so… I came.” Su Ning explained, naturally omitting the fact that he had received five million.
“Not a boyfriend? A stranger?” Everyone was a little surprised.
“Ah? Is that so…” It could be seen that the people in the room were actually a little disappointed…
What are you disappointed about?
It’s our first meeting, and you don’t even know my character. Is it just because of my handsome appearance?
Superficial…
What Su Ning didn’t know was… that some superiors only need a few minutes to roughly judge what kind of person you are through your words, actions, micro-expressions… and temperament.
In their eyes, Su Ning was a person with a pretty good character.
“I’m sorry, Mengyao has been very well protected since she was a child and hasn’t seen much of the world… I’m sorry you had to see that.” Old Master Wu said regretfully.
Actually… the first time he saw Su Ning, he was prejudiced and thought he was his grandson-in-law, and he was quite satisfied.
Handsome, healthy, confident and sunny, neither arrogant nor humble, with very clean eyes… not the kind that are timid and evasive.
He gave off a good feeling.
Su Ning: I’m here to slack off… not to go on a blind date…
“It’s okay, I don’t mind.” Su Ning smiled.
“It’s good that you don’t mind… that… young man, do you have a girlfriend?” Old Master Wu asked.
Su Ning: ……
“Old Master, I’m not here for a blind date…”
“Actually, you can give it a try.” Old Master Wu said.
Try my ass, try.
“I’d better see the illness…” Su Ning said.
He walked to the bed and held Old Master Wu’s hand.
“Young man, actually I know Mengyao’s intentions, she’s just desperate and trying anything. I know my own situation… Besides, people are born to grow old, get sick, and die. I, this Old Man, can see that clearly. Besides… I have no regrets in this life. I’ve ventured when I should have ventured, I’ve been glorious, I’ve been lonely… I’ve experienced everything I should have experienced. Even if I’m buried in the ground, it’s no big deal.” The Old Man said eloquently.
“Old Master, I want to ask… is your name… Xiao Shan?” Su Ning asked.
“You know me?”
“When I was in school, the Dormitory Building and the Library were donated by you. Later, I checked online and found that you had donated Dormitory Buildings and Libraries all over the country… as well as scholarships, etc.” Su Ning said.
“To tell you the truth, I even received your funding before…”
The first time he came in, he felt that the Old Man on the bed looked very familiar.
But because of his illness, he had much less energy than in the photos.
“Oh? Is that so…” Xiao Shan said.
Su Ning nodded…
He was silent for a moment.
He let go of Old Master Wu’s hand: “I’m sorry, Old Master, I’m really not a doctor, nor am I a physician… I can’t do anything about your illness. Miss Wu has mistaken me for someone else. I’m really sorry!” Su Ning stepped back and sighed helplessly.
“It’s okay…” Old Master Wu seemed to have expected this result.
“You don’t have to blame yourself.”
“Since I’ve seen what I needed to see, and I’ve fulfilled my agreement with Miss Wu, then I won’t disturb you any longer.” Su Ning said goodbye.
“Why don’t you sit for a while longer?” Old Master Wu tried to persuade him to stay.
“Thank you for your kindness, Old Master, but it’s getting late…” Su Ning said.
“Alright, since that’s the case, then please go ahead.”
Su Ning nodded and prepared to leave.
Seeing this, Wu Mengyao opened her mouth, her eyes turned red, and she looked a little disappointed…
But that was the agreement, Su Ning would just come over and take a look, no matter what the result was.
“Wait…” Wu Mengyao said.
Su Ning: This Girl doesn’t want to pester me, does she?
“That… it’s getting late, I’ll have the Driver take you back.”
“How could I?” Su Ning didn’t refuse.
…
He left the ward.
Su Ning returned to the starting point in the Driver’s car.
As for Wu Mengyao and Old Master Wu…
He could only say that Old Master Wu wouldn’t die.
Su Ning did take action, but he wouldn’t admit it.
Moreover, this time he took action, there would be absolutely no trace to be found. Unlike treating Jiang Xiaotao’s Parents, this time Su Ning’s Cultivation had greatly increased, and he could do it without leaving any special serum…
“Bang…”
He watched the Driver leave, and Su Ning returned to his van.
Go home!
Jiang Xiaotao and Xiao Li were sitting in the back row, having waited for a long time.
“Su Ning, where did you go…” Xiao Li asked.
“We waited for a long time.”
Then the two Ghosts showed off their gains this time…
“Look… what spoils of war we brought you.”
