“How come a small package of herbs can cost so much?” The woman started to complain after she and her daughter had left Wang Yao’s clinic.

“Yeah, even medication from the town hospital wouldn’t cost so much,” said her daughter.

“We are from the same village. This Yao is not honest,” said the woman.

Wang Yao didn’t know he would get such comments after trying to help the woman.

In fact, most people in China were like that woman.

She thought Wang Yao should charge much less because they were from the same village. People doing business in the village should charge their fellow villagers minimal. It would be even better if a free service could be provided. However, anyone’s hard work should be valued.

Wang Yao didn’t hear what the woman said about him, otherwise he would be upset.

It was cold and windy on the hill at night.

Wang Yao started to brew the decoction containing Frost Grass at night for Sun Yunsheng. The decoction would expel the heat toxin out of Sun Yunsheng’s body.

Outside the pot, the fire made the surroundings very hot. Inside the pot, the liquid was freezing cold.

It was the amalgamation of ice and fire.

It was not difficult to brew the decoction containing Frost Grass, because there were not many different herbs invoLued. The only thing was that Wang Yao needed to brew the decoction at night.

Done!

Wang Yao poured the decoction into a porcelain bottle, which immediately became freezing cold.

The next morning, Wang Yao went up to the top of the hill and found that the ground was covered by white frost.

It was getting really cold.

…

Meanwhile, something was happening in a big hospital in Beijing.

“Well, your condition…” said a professor working in the hospital.

“Professor Su, what do you think of my condition?” asked his patient.

“I can only suggest conservative treatment at this stage,” said Professor Su.

He had come across similar conditions.

“Okay, I’ll listen to you,” said the patient.

“Well, I need you to do a few more blood tests first.” He prescribed the blood tests for the patient.

“Okay,” said the patient.

After the patient had left, Professor Su found the case which impressed him on his computer.

It was Wei Hai’s case. Wei Hai not only had liver damage, but his other organs were also in disorder. Wei Hai had multiple organ failure at that time. Professor Su also had a look at the results of Wei Hai’s blood test.

“Right, they have similar symptoms,” said Professor Su.

After a while, his patient came back with the results of blood tests.

“Could you please take a look?” asked the patient.

Professor Su had a close look at the results and compared it to Wei Hai’s results. 90% of their results were the same.

“Sorry, I can’t treat your condition,” said Professor Su honestly.

“What?” Lu Xian was surprised first, then scared.

He was seeing the best doctor from the best hospital in China. If Professor Su couldn’t cure him, who could? Professor Su’s words were like a death sentence to him. What could he do? Go home and face death?

“Can you please try?” begged Lu Xian.

“I’ve read through your results three times. What I told you was the truth. If you had come to be three months earlier, I might be able to treat you. But now, I’m sorry,” said Professor Su.

Lu Xian’s face sank. He looked even worse. Now he had truly received a death sentence.

“But don’t despair. I had a patient before. His condition was very similar to yours. Actually he was even worse at the time. But now he’s fully recovered,” said Professor Su.

“Fully recovered?!” said Lu Xian in shock.

“Yes, but he didn’t get treated here in Beijing,” said Professor Su.

“Where did he get treated?” asked Lu Xian eagerly.

“Haiqu,” said Professor Su.

“Haiqu?” Lu Xian was surprised. He had heard of Haiqu, a small city near the ocean.

“Yes, in a small town of Haiqu. He was treated by a young doctor there,” said Professor Su.

If it was anyone but Professor Su who told him this, Lu Xian would have thought it was a lie, or some sort of fraud.

“Do you have that doctor’s contact details?” asked Lu Xian.

“Yes. Just wait a minute. Let me call him first,” said Professor Su.

He found Wang Yao’s contact number on his phone, then he called him up.

“Hello,” Wang Yao picked up the phone.

He didn’t expect a phone call from Professor Su.

“A patient?” asked Wang Yao.

He didn’t expect that Professor Su would have called him because of one of his patients, let alone that he had similar condition to Wei Hai’s.

“I’m happy to see him. But I can’t guarantee to cure him,” said Wang Yao.

“That’s fine,” said Professor Su.

He told Lu Xian that Wang Yao was happy to see him after he hung up the phone.

“Look, I will be on a business trip to Dao City next week. I can go with you,” said Professor Su.

“Great, thank you,” said Lu Xian immediately.

After endless mountains and rivers that left doubt and despair about whether there was a path out, suddenly he had encountered the hope with the shade of a willow, bright flowers, and a lovely village.

Lu Xian suffered a lot from the illness. He was like Wei Hai, who started to question his life choices after being seriously ill.

One’s health was one’s most precious asset.

What would be the use of money if one’s health had collapsed?

Someone has similar condition to Wei Hai. Good, one stone can kill two birds.

Wang Yao made himself a cup of tea, then started to think about his conversation with Professor Su.

Big hospitals are full of patients with conditions hard to treat.

I’ll see him first.

After Wang Yao had gone home in the evening, his sister brought a surprise to his family. They had a visitor, who was a man of medium height and good-looking. The man came with a bag of fruit and some health supplements. He didn’t stay for a long time. He just talked to Wang Yao’s parents briefly before leaving in a hurry.

“Who is he?” asked Wang Yao.

“He said he is Ru’s colleague,” said Zhang Xiuying.

“Yes,” said Wang Fenghua.

“What’s his name?” asked Wang Yao.

“Du Mingyang,” said Zhang Xiuying. “Do you think he’s your sister’s boyfriend?”

“Simple, let me call her,” said Wang Yao.

Then Wang Yao called his sister.

“What? He went to our house?” Apparently Wang Ru was very surprised to hear about Du Mingyang’s visit to her parents’ house.

“Yes, He also brought a lot of stuff, like apples, gelatin, cigarettes, and wine. Is he my future brother-in-law?” asked Wang Yao.

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Wang Ru hung up the phone, then she rang Du Mingyang to scold him.

Du Mingyang was smiling at the other end of the phone, as if Wang Ru was not scolding him, but speaking sweet words to him.

“That’s great!” said Zhang Xiuying.

She was so happy that someone was interested in her daughter.

“She’s finally got a boyfriend,” said Zhang Xiuying.

“Yeah. It’s Saturday tomorrow, ask her to bring Du Mingyang here for dinner,” suggested Wang Yao.

“Good idea. I’ll call your sister,” said Zhang Xiuying.

“Wait a second, has my future brother-in-law left his contact number?” asked Wang Yao.

“No, wait for your sister to come back first,” said Zhang Xiuying.

The next morning, Sun Zhengrong and his son came to Wang Yao’s clinic.

Wang Yao gave the decoction he brewed to Sun Yunsheng, then gave Sun Yunsheng a massage to facilitate the absorbing of the decoction. In the end, Wang Yao gave Sun Yunsheng Qi therapy.

As Wang Yao was about to finish the therapy session, his sister came to the clinic.

She greeted Sun Zhengrong with a smile as her brother was busy treating Sun Yunsheng.

“Are you gonna take a long while?” asked Wang Ru.

“No, almost finished,” said Wang Yao in the private room.

Wang Ru made a pot of tea, then served Sun Zhengrong a cup of tea.

“Thank you,” said Sun Zhengrong.

“You are welcome,” said Wang Ru.

The treatment session took a long while. Wang Yao didn’t finish it until it was past noon. Wang Ru had been waiting outside. She talked with Sun Zhengrong for a moment.

“Hi, Sis.” Wang Yao came out of the clinical room.

“You’ve finished?” asked Wang Ru.

“Yeah, shall we go home for lunch?” said Wang Yao.

“Okay. Would you like to come with us, Mr. Sun?” asked Wang Ru.

“No, thanks. I don’t want to bother you guys.” Sun Yunsheng left the clinic with his son.

A large sum of income had been transferred into Wang Yao’s bank account soon after Sun Zhengrong had left.

“Let me take a look.” Wang Ru grabbed Wang Yao’s phone.

“Dear me! What treatment did you provide to him? You have charged so much!” Wang Ru was shocked to see Sun Zhengrong paid over one hundred thousand yuan to Wang Yao. She started to doubt if Sun Zhengrong was an idiot.

She also noticed there was over 10 billion yuan sitting in Wang Yao’s bank account.

“Tell me the truth, have you tricked that guy?” asked Wang Ru.

“How can that be possible? You’ve just met him. You can tell how smart he is. How can he be bamboozled by me?” said Wang Yao.

“But how can you make so much money? It is like robbing a bank,” said Wang Ru.

“What you said is not appropriate,” said Wang Yao.

“Well, let’s not talk about this. Have you said anything to Mom and Dad?” said Wang Ru.

“What are you talking about?” asked Wang Yao.

“Don’t play dumb! I’m talking about Du Mingyang,” said Wang Ru.

“Oh, I see, my future brother-in-law. I think he’s a nice guy,” said Wang Yao. “He a good match for you.”

“By the way, how come he’s not here today? Let me give him a call,” added Wang Yao.

“You dare to!” shouted Wang Ru.

Wang Yao asked his sister about Du Mingyang. He then knew that Du Mingyang didn’t work for the Agriculture Bureau, but worked for the Education Department. Du Mingyang met Wang Ru by chance, then he started to chase after Wang Ru. It all happened recently.

“What do you think of him, Sis?” asked Wang Yao.

“What can I do? I need to get to know him first,” said Wang Ru.

“Yes, maybe I can ask someone to look into him,” said Wang Yao.

“What do you mean?” said Wang Ru with surprise.

“You want to know what kind of person he is,” said Wang Yao.

Actually Wang Yao was almost certain what kind of person Du Mingyang was. Although he couldn’t read his face, he could make diagnosis according to one’s appearance and briefly had an idea of what kind person he or she was.

Du Mingyang’s eyes were bright and clear, so he must be a decent person.

His face was red and his breath was full of strength, so he must be healthy.

So he was good enough for Wang Ru.

They continued to talk about Du Mingyang during lunch.

As Wang Ru’s mother, Zhang Xiuying was very keen to know everything about Du Mingyang.

“When will you bring him home for dinner?’ asked Zhang Xiuying.

“Dinner? Maybe after a few weeks,” said Wang Ru.

“A few weeks later? Look at your brother, his girlfriend Tong Wei has spent a few nights here already.” Zhang Xiuying took Wang Yao as a positive example.

“I’m still trying to get to know him,” said Wang Ru.

“As long as he’s a decent person. I don’t want you to become an old single woman,” said Zhang Xiuying.

“Mom, I can’t be your biological child if that’s all you have on your mind! I’m not like that at all!” Wang Ru complained.

Wang Yao didn’t stay at home that afternoon. He went back to Nanshan Hill instead.

Wang Ru had nothing to do at home, so she followed Wang Yao to Nanshan Hill. She was surprised to see all the green plants on the hill, especially after she had taken a close look and found those trees were not evergreen plants.

“How come the leaves of the trees don’t fall?” asked Wang Ru.

“It’s not time yet,” said Wang Yao, smiling.

After entering the battle array, Wang Ru found herself in a totally different world. It was cold and windy outside, but inside the battle array it was nice and warm, as if spring had come.

“What’s going on here?” Wang Ru looked at her brother.

One hill, two worlds, it was amazing.

“You are inside a battle array,” said Wang Yao, smiling.

“What battle array? So amazing!” asked Wang Ru curiously.

“See where I planted these trees and what trees I’ve chosen? It’s all according to a profound theory,” said Wang Yao.
