“I used to like noisy places full of people when I was studying in the university,” Wang Yao said.

He had completely changed after he started to practice Taoism.

“You were just like them?” Su Xiaoxue asked as she pointed at several young men shouting next to the stage.

“Yeah, sort of,” Wang Yao said.

As they were chatting, a young man went onto the stage.

“I want to sing a song called Cinderella to the love of my life,” the young man said.

“Wow!””Fantastic!” Shouted a group of people standing next to the stage.

The young man on the stage started to sing, “How did I become infatuated by you? I’m asking myself. I can give up anything for you. But how could you just leave? You are not very pretty, but extremely lovely.”

Honestly, he sang very well. His voice was full of emotion.

“Can you sing?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“Me? Not really,” Wang Yao said.

“Hello, beautiful, can I have the pleasure to know you?” Suddenly, a well-dressed young man approached Su Xiaoxue.

“Sorry, no,” Su Xiaoxue coldly said.

“I just want to make friends with you. What do you think?” The young man didn’t want to give up.

Pubs were the best place to hunt for beautiful girls. Guys had a good chance to bump into women who had just broken up with their partner or boyfriend. Those women were often upset and tended to drink a lot. A lot of guys would take the chance to seduce those women.

However, this young man who tried to hook up with Su Xiaoxue completely ignored Wang Yao, who was obviously accompanying her. Maybe he just felt too good about himself.

“Haha!” The young man laughed.

He went onto the stage and whispered a few words to the young man who had been singing with deep emotion. The young man then gave the stage to him.

“I’m going to sing a song called Love Confession to that beautiful lady,” the well-dressed young man said.

He pointed at Su Xiaoxue, who suddenly attracted everyone’s attention.

“Wow, she’s stunning,” a person in the pub said.

“Wait! She’s already got company,” another person said.

“Is he trying to steal her from her company?” his friend asked.

The well-dressed young man started to sing, “Along the Seine, in the cafe on the left, I am having a cup of coffee and tasting your beauty. The mark of your lipsticks is in my heart… You said you are not interested. You wanted me to step back…”

“What do you think of his singing?” Wang Yao asked with a smile.

“Horrible! His voice is horrible,” Su Xiaoxue said.

To be honest, Wang Yao thought his singing was okay.

“I want to leave here now,” Su Xiaoxue said.

“OK.” Wang Yao paid the bill.

“Hey, beautiful, don’t go!” the young man on the stage shouted. He was apparently touched by his own singing. “Stay! Stay!”

The crowd kicked up a fuss.

“Tah!”

Suddenly everyone in the pub heard a noise, like thunder, that shadowed all the other noises

“Ouch!” someone shouted.

“My ears!” Another person cried out in pain. He felt extreme pain in his ears

The people in the pub covered their ears and rubbed their heads.

“What was that?” Su Xiaoxue curiously asked after they had left the pub.

“It’s just a way of using internal power,” Wang Yao said.

“Just like a lion roaring?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“Yeah, similar,” Wang Yao said.

“You are amazing,” Su Xiaoxue said.

“They were too noisy,” Wang Yao said.

“Oh, dear!” Chu Lian walked out of the pub rubbing her forehead. This Dr. Wang is really capable. He can even do a lion roar.

She took a deep breath and continued to follow Wang Yao and Su Xiaoxue.

Wang Yao had a look at his mobile phone to check the time. “It’s 9 p.m. I should take you home.”

“OK,” Su Xiaoxue said, even though she wanted to spend more time with Wang Yao. “I’ll call Auntie Lian.”

Chu Lian came to meet them a moment later. She drove Wang Yao back to the hotel before taking Su Xiaoxue home.

“Did you have a good day?” Chu Lian asked.

“Yeah, I really enjoyed it,” Su Xiaoxue said.

Song Ruiping came out of the living room when she heard Su Xiaoxue come home.

“You are back. Did you enjoy your day?” Song Ruiping asked.

“Yes,” Su Xiaoxue said.

“Good, I’ll leave you to rest,” Song Ruiping said.

“OK, good night, Mom,” Su Xiaoxue said. She went upstairs humming a happy tune.

“Where have they been to?” Song Ruiping asked with low voice.

“They had dinner together and went to a pub in Back Sea area,” Chu Lian said.

“Pub? Xiaoxue had a drink there?” Song Ruiping asked.

“Yes, she had a glass of cocktail,” Chu Lian said.

“And, then?” Song Ruiping asked.

“She didn’t drink anything else,” Chu Lian said.

“Oh, that’s good,” Song Ruiping said.

“By the way, Dr. Wang wants to visit here tomorrow,” Chu Lian said.

“OK,” Song Ruiping said. She also needed to talk to Wang Yao face to face.

The night in Beijing was still very alive. The next day, they sky was gloomy. It was as if the sky was covered by something that people uncomfortable. It was just one of those days in Beijing.

Wang Yao had prepared gifts. He brought tea from Haiqu, which was bought from Xu Maosheng. He didn’t ask Chu Lian to pick him up. He went to Su Xiaoxue’s house by himself.

“Good morning, Auntie Song,” Wang Yao said. This time he didn’t call her ma’am.

“Morning, please come in.” Song Ruiping invited Wang Yao into the room with a smile.

Tea was immediately served.

“Dr. Wang!” As soon as Su Xiaoxue saw Wang Yao, she felt happy. She felt naturally close to him.

The three of them talked for a short while.

“Xiaoxue, I want to speak to Dr. Wang in private. Is that OK with you?” Song Ruiping asked.

“That’s fine.” Su Xiaoxue went upstairs in silence.

“Wang Yao, I have something important to talk to you about,” Song Ruiping said.

“Sure, Auntie Song, go ahead,” Wang Yao said.

“I sincerely appreciate you saving Xiaoxue’s life. Actually, my whole family holds great gratitude to you because of this. We’ll never forget about it,” Song Ruiping said.

Wang Yao didn’t say anything immediately. He was just listening to Song Ruiping quietly as he sat on the sofa.

“However, I have to be cautious when it comes to Xiaoxue’s marriage as her mother,” Song Ruiping said.

“I completely understand,” Wang Yao said.

“So, I hope you can tell me the truth whether you really like Xiaoxue. Are you dating her purely because you like her?” Song Ruiping asked.

“Yes, I really like her,” Wang Yao said after keeping silent for a second. “I want to spend time with her to see if we will get along well.”

“I see. I just hope you will not hurt her,” Song Ruiping said. In most cases, girls tended to get hurt when a relationship ended.

“Of course,” Wang Yao sincerely said.

“Good,” Song Ruiping said. “Chu Lian, you can ask Xiaoxue to come down.”

“OK, Ma’am,” Chu Lian said.

Su Xiaoxue came downstairs and walked to Wang Yao.

“Where would you like to go today?” Su Xiaoxue asked. “I can show you around and be your tour guide.”

“That sounds like a good idea. I hope you two have a good time. Will you come back for lunch?” Song Ruiping asked.

“No,” Su Xiaoxue said.

“OK, look after yourself,” Song Ruiping said.

She walked her daughter and Wang Yao out of the door.

“Dr. Wang, where should we go today?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“I’ll listen to you,” Wang Yao said.

Su Xiaoxue didn’t ask what her mother said to Wang Yao, and he didn’t mention anything, either.

“North Sea Garden?” Su Xiaoxue suggested.

“Sure,” Wang Yao said.

“Let’s go,” Su Xiaoxue said.

Beijing was huge. It had a lot of places worth seeing. No one could see the whole city within one day.

Su Xiaoxue was in a good mood, but she was thinking about what her mother could have possibly said to Wang Yao.

“The emperors in the history really knew how to enjoy life,” Su Xiaoxue said after they had arrived at North Sea Park.

Inside the garden, Wang Yao felt something similar to Nanshan Hill. Of course, the aura in North Sea Garden was nowhere as good as Nanshan. Obviously, the designer made a good effort to design this royal garden. He probably had consulted a number of Feng Shui masters.

The water rippled in the lake. A white tower was standing on the hill in the distance.

“Do you feel anything?” Wang Yao softly asked.

“Feel something?” Su Xiaoxue asked after thinking for a moment. “What do you mean?”

“The aura of the surroundings.” Wang Yao looked around.

“The aura of this place?” Su Xiaoxue closed her eyes to try to feel it.

“Honestly, I can’t feel anything,” Su Xiaoxue said.

“Compared to the city center, the aura here is purer and stronger,” Wang Yao said.

“You mean this is a good place to do breathing exercise?” Su Xiaoxue asked.

“Yes, that’s exactly what I mean,” Wang Yao said.

In fact, whole areas of Beijing were polluted. It was not like that thousands of years ago. There must have been a good reason for those emperors to choose Beijing as the capital city. They must have made great effort to build the city. Beijing had been the capital of China since the Yuan Dynasty. The city was carefully designed. Ancient people were much smarter in certain areas, even without the assistance from modern technology.

A city had its own purpose, no matter if there were residents inside or not.

“I can’t feel anything here. I could only feel the strong aura when I was close to Nanshan Hill,” Su Xiaoxue said.

She hadn’t been to Nanshan Hill. She had only reached the foot of the hill, where she could feel a different aura.

“You should come here often when you have time,” Wang Yao said. “It will benefit you with your practice.”

“OK, I will,” Su Xiaoxue said.

They went to The Great Wall after visiting the North Sea Garden. Wang Yao had gone onto The Great Wall in the rain once. He made great progress with his practice of Kung Fu at that time. However, there were many tourists around now. Although it was not during peak season, it was still crowded and noisy. Wang Yao couldn’t sense anything special.
