Chapter 556 Live a Little Longer



He Weiguo and Fang Xiuli both rushed to the front of the old man of the He family, leaned over to talk to him, and Chu Yue silently gave up her seat to them.

The old man of the He family looked at them and said, "Why are you crying? I'm not dead..."

At the same time, he noticed that there were two strange young men in the room.

"You... I seem to have seen you somewhere..." The old man of the He family had a vague impression of Lu Zhanlin, probably because they had met once at a meritorious service award ceremony. Then he said to Chu Yue, "Miss, who are you...?"

"I came to visit you on behalf of Commander He," Chu Yue replied.

She withheld this information by not mentioning the name or the identity of the doctor.

The old man of the He family is in poor health now. If he knows Chu Yue's identity, he will inevitably think of He Meijiao again and will be stimulated.

It would be best if Chu Yue said nothing.

The old man of the He family laughed. "Old He is so nosy... You, a young man, are not bothered by me... You don't even bother to let me, a dying man, come and see you."

"Grandpa He, what's the point of talking about life and death? You will not die. You will live a hundred years." Fang Xiuli persuaded from the side.

The old man of the He family forced a smile and shook his head. "I know my own body... Everyone has this day. I can't compare to you young people."

Life is ticking away, and he doesn't have much time left.

In order to make Grandpa He happy, Fang Xiuli said some cheerful words.

He Weiguo was a tough man and could not say these words. He just turned his head and secretly wiped the corners of his eyes while no one was paying attention.

Chu Yue and Lu Zhanlin talked for a while, and the old man of the He family asked them why they came to the capital. How is General He in good health?

When they heard that they were actually a couple and came to the award ceremony together, they were so happy that they kept saying that Commander He was lucky and that the military region produced such talented people.

This conversation did not last long. Old man He soon became exhausted and fell into a coma again.

Everyone left the room.

Go outside.

"...Chu...Comrade Chu." He Weiguo spoke awkwardly. His attitude towards Chu Yue was completely different from his initial impulsive anger. He lowered his posture and tone, "Comrade Chu, I've seen your abilities. Is there really no way to treat my grandfather's illness?"

Chu Yue thought for a moment and said, "Give me paper and pen."

After a while.

Chu Yue wrote out a prescription and handed it to He Weiguo.

"Follow this prescription. Boil six bowls of water to make one bowl, and take it once a day. This medicine is good for the old man's health, but the damage done by decades of toxins is irreversible. Complete detoxification is impossible. All we can do is give him a little longer."

Even if it was just this, it was already great news for He Weiguo. It was better than searching for doctors all over the country and still being like a headless fly, knowing nothing.

He Weiguo solemnly held the prescription written by Chu Yue, his face full of emotion. He wanted to say something to Chu Yue, but... he couldn't say it.

Chu Yue didn't care what good words He Weiguo could say. Her mission had been completed on this trip.

"Zhan Lin, let's go."

Lu Yuanbao was still at Fang Xiuli's house next door, so they hurried to pick up the child.

When the couple was about to walk out, He Weiguo's voice finally came.

"Comrade Chu, I'm sorry." He Weiguo took a deep breath and said with shame, "I'm sorry. I apologize to you on behalf of my sister He Meijiao. She was wrong, and I also apologize for my previous attitude. And... thank you, thank you for still being willing to treat grandpa under such circumstances."

Chu Yue raised her head slightly and looked at He Weiguo calmly.

"He Meijiao is He Meijiao. What she did has nothing to do with you. You don't need to apologize on her behalf. Besides, she's already in jail. An adult should pay the price for her actions. The word 'sorry' is meaningless."

"As for my treating the old man, on the one hand, it was General He's request, and on the other hand, the old man dedicated his life to this country. As a young man who grew up in peacetime, this is what I should do."

After Chu Yue finished speaking, she turned and left without waiting for He Weiguo's reaction.

He Weiguo stood there in a daze, his chest heaving, and it was obvious that his emotions were churning violently.

When he was obsessed with some grudges, Chu Yue saw the justice of family and country.

He is narrow-minded...

A complete loss.

After leaving the He family, Fang Xiuli thought about what Chu Yue said and He Weiguo's last expression, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Chu Yue, you are amazing."

They had just taken a few steps when they heard the child's cheerful and tender voice.

"Lu Yuanbao, blow it! Blow it!"

"Hahahaha...hahaha...so many bubbles!"

"Yuanbao, it's my turn now. I'll blow...Yuanbao, is it fun? Isn't it fun?"

"Yeah, fun!"

There is a small garden in front of the Fang family villa. The small garden is well-maintained, lush and full of blooming flowers, which is very beautiful.

Lu Yuanbao and Tan Rourou were playing in the small garden. They took a bubble blower toy, dipped it in bubble water, and then blew hard. One after another, transparent bubbles flew out with the wind.

The transparent bubbles sparkle in the sunlight and have rainbow colors.

Lu Yuanbao and Tan Rourou blew bubbles while jumping up and reaching out to pop them.

There was no sound when the bubbles burst, but the two children laughed happily.

Their happy appearance is as bright as the summer.

Chu Yue and Fang Xiuli stopped beside the garden. As mothers, they looked at their two excited children with the same gentle expressions.

After a while, Lu Yuanbao discovered them first.

"Dad, Mom!"

Tan Rourou then saw Fang Xiuli and exclaimed, "Mom!"

They ran out from the small garden, holding Chu Yue and Fang Xiuli's hands, and shouting to play with them.

Afterwards, Chu Yue and Lu Zhanlin stayed at Fang Xiuli's house for the whole afternoon. They didn't go anywhere else and just played with the children.

The day's journey went quite smoothly.

But in the evening, when Chu Yue and Lu Zhanlin were about to say goodbye, they had a small argument.

"Why are you leaving? You're in the capital now, and I'm going to treat you to a meal as a proper host. ... What, you already have an appointment? With Captain Lu's old comrade? ... No, tell him to schedule it another day. I'm treating you to dinner today, and you're not leaving. ... Who's that guy? I'm going to call him now."
