Rebirth from the Ashes - Chapter 756 - The Voice Came Before the Person

“My dear sister!”

The voice came before the person. It was Fu Qingxuan.

Getting up, Shen Xi looked out and caught a glimpse of a joyful-looking young man arriving under the moonlight.

Yun Jinping was pleasantly surprised by the young man’s appearance. Fu Qingxuan ran into the house. “Why are you here this late at night?”

“Mr. and Mrs. Shen.” Fu Qingxuan greeted them. “I’m here in China on business. I have a medical symposium tomorrow.”

He intended to arrange for more medical conferences in China. This way, he had a good reason to visit his sister.

“Have you eaten?” It was not work Yun Jinping was worried about. It was his health. “No.” Dropping his luggage, Fu Qingxuan drew close and grabbed the food with his bare hand, but Shen Xi slapped it with a chopstick.

“Go and wash your hands.” Shen Xi gave a look of disgust. Biting his lip, Fu Qingxuan gave the puppy look. “I’m hungry.”

Even though Shen Xi knew he was pretending, she turned soft and fed him a piece of lotus root. “Happy now?”

Smiling like an idiot, Fu Qingxuan munched and bobbed his head. “I’ll go and wash my hands.” The best food came from his sister’s hand.

Under the table, Li Yuan gently squeezed the girl’s finger and looked at her.

While everyone’s attention was on Fu Qingxuan, Shen Xi fed a piece of braised pork to Li Yuan.

Shen Zhangqing abruptly turned around and caught them in the act. Taking in their sneaky move there, he glared at Li Yuan.

Oh, great.

The marriage license gave them no right to act lovey-dovey in front of him.

Clearing her throat, Shen Xi picked a piece of Shen Zhangqing’s favorite ribs and ingratiatingly smiled. “For you, Dad.”

Li Yuan let out a smile without a peep.

Shen Zhangqing took a glance at her. Of course, he did not have the heart to reprimand her. All he could do was sigh to himself. His daughter was closer to his son-in-law than him now that she was married. The ribs did not taste the same anymore. Fu Qingxuan ran back after cleaning his hands. He said, “Tangtang is having surgery next week. Why didn’t you let me know?”

Shen Zhanging said with a smile, “It’s nothing major. We managed to contact Dr. Jiu Zhou to do the surgery. It shouldn’t be a problem.”

“I want to meet Dr. Jiu Zhou too.” Fu Qingxuan sat down and took the chopsticks handed to him by Yun Jinping. “Thank you, Mrs. Shen.”

“Hurry up and dig in. You look hungry.” Yun Jinping urged, “Dr. Jiu Zhou doesn’t want to meet anyone. He told Xixi and Lil’ Yuan that they’re the only ones allowed during the day of the surgery.”

Song Wenye put down the chopsticks and stared at Shen Xi. “Xixi, do you know Dr. Jiu Zhou?”

Toffeecito’s Dad must know him if Xixi did not. Toffeecito’s Dad was amazing, and there was no one he could not locate.

“We had a chat.” Shen Xi nodded.

She had not had the chance to let the cat out of the bag about the disguise. Apart from Li Yuan, Fu Qingli, and Yu Qiubai, everyone else was pretty much in the dark.

Shen Xi had no intention of saying anything to avoid unnecessary trouble. Unless it was a tough case, a medical genius like Fu Qingxuan was enough to handle the medical side of things.

“Can I look for him?” Song Wenye asked.

Shen Xi sized her up. “What’s wrong with

you?”

A trip to the doctors should do the trick.

“It’s not me. It’s for my grandpa. His rheumatism is getting worse. He’s seen a doctor and taken medication. You name it – pain-relief patches, herbal medicine bath, acupuncture – he’s done them all but none is working for him. He can’t even walk now.” Song Wenye sighed.

“Should I go with you to take a look at Grandpa?” While stuffing his mouth, Fu Qingxuan recommended himself. “I’m a doctor too and I’m good.” Song Wenye smiled. It had slipped her mind that there was a medical genius here. “Let’s go first thing in the morning.” “Illness can’t wait. We’re family. Why wait until tomorrow? Grandpa must be aching all night. I’ll go with you after supper.” Fu Qingxuan earnestly uttered.

“I’m going too.” Shen Xi added. “I know a thing or two about acupuncture and massage. I can examine Grandpa.”

With a smile, Li Yuan scratched the girl’s palm. His fair lady was so humble. As if she only knew a thing or two about acupuncture and massage. No one was equal to her in the whole of China.

Song Wenye nodded. “I’ll let Grandpa know. We don’t have to come back later. It’s late. Just stay over at my place.”

With that, the family happily decided on the matter.

After supper, Yun Jinping and Shen Zhangqing saw the children off to the door and watched them leave before returning to the house.

The kids were all grown up now.

Elated to have her granddaughter bringing home some friends, Old Man Song had been waiting at the doorway. He got up from the wheelchair with the help of a cane as the car pulled up.

“Grandpa.” Getting down from the car, Song Wenye was first to bolt ahead and give the old man a hug. She then introduced everyone to him.

Among the group, only Yu Yuanxi had met Old Man Song. With the old man giving the kid a friendly vibe, the group called him Grandpa and exchanged greetings.

Following the introductions, Old Man Song grinned from ear to ear, particularly warming up to Shen Xi. He gazed at her with benevolence. “I know you. Lil’ Ye can’t stop talking about you. I told her to bring you here, but she refused.”

Shen Xi’s name was a legend. Not only did he hear his granddaughter bringing her up in conversation, but he was also a fan of Shen Xi, watching her TV shows on reruns. He wondered when her next show would be released.

“Xixi is busy.” Song Wenye argued in a hushed tone while pressing the old man to sit in his wheelchair. “It’s cold here. Let’s get inside to talk.”

Yu Yuanxi drew near and pushed the wheelchair while chatting with the old man. Since Fu Qingxuan was here to do a medical examination as a doctor, he approached the old man and asked a few medical questions. Holding Li Yuan’s hand, Shen Xi listened intently to the answers. Rheumatism was one of the world’s most complex conditions. It was also nicknamed non-fatal cancer. There was no cure medically speaking. All they could do was relieve the symptoms. “Grandpa, we have professional equipment in our lab to provide you with an independent treatment plan. You can come with me to United M if you have the time.” Fu Qingxuan did not have a better way to treat the illness, but his medical lab had seen some promising results after extensive research.

“Thank you. I’ve had it for a long time. The pain came back because it’s getting humid nowadays. It’s nothing serious. Lil’ Ye made a big deal out of it.” Old Man Song smiled. “I’ll have to pass on going abroad.”
