Although Li Chengjun did not elaborate on what it was about, the quick-witted Xia Wan immediately understood the deeper meaning behind his words.
Xia Wan smiled slightly and replied casually, "Hey, it's just a small thing, don't take it to heart. Besides, you specially invited us here for a big meal today, so this is a way of expressing your gratitude."
After hearing this, Li Chengjun didn't dwell on it any longer and quickly changed the subject: "I heard that you two are leaving for Beijing tomorrow. It must be because of Uncle Xia's illness, right? I wonder if you've contacted and found a suitable doctor in advance?"
Xia Wan nodded gently, a hint of worry unconsciously showing in her eyes, and slowly replied, "That's right, it's because of my father's illness."
Dr. Qiu from the county hospital suggested we ask his friend in Beijing for help. As for the specifics, we'll have to wait until we get to the hospital in Beijing for further examination and diagnosis.
In the past few days, the filial Xia Wan has given her father the health-strengthening pills twice.
Moreover, she had personally taken her father's pulse, but unfortunately, her knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine was only superficial, and she could not accurately determine the exact condition of her father's health. All she could confirm at the moment was that her father's health seemed to be in relatively good condition.
Whether the surgery can be performed is still uncertain. Everything will have to wait until we arrive in Beijing, where doctors will conduct a thorough examination and diagnosis before a final decision can be made.
Li Chengjun slowly pulled a neatly folded note from deep inside his pocket, then carefully handed it to Xia Wan, saying sincerely:
"Girl, when you get to Beijing, if you encounter any difficult problems, you can take this note to the person whose name is on it. This person also works at the city hospital and is an experienced doctor. Just give him this note, and he will naturally understand the reason and provide the appropriate assistance."
After saying these words, Li Chengjun hesitated for a moment, but ultimately chose to remain silent.
It was only because Xia Tao was staring intently at the two of them! Besides, through his time with Xia Wan, he could also sense that this girl didn't seem to have any special feelings for him.
Therefore, it would be unwise to rashly reveal one's true feelings at this moment.
Xia Wan happily reached out and took the note that carried hope, her heart filled with endless gratitude.
She said in a soft and sincere voice, "Brother Jun, thank you so much! This kindness is so important to us."
As she spoke, the sincere light shining in her bright and clear eyes was as dazzling as the stars twinkling in the night sky.
However, this seemingly casual expression was like a spring breeze rippling across a lake, stirring his heartstrings in Li Chengjun's eyes.
His originally dark face instantly turned bright red. A little flustered, he subconsciously reached out his right hand to scratch the back of his head and replied shyly, "We're good friends, this is nothing, it's only right!"
Just then, one after another, delicious-looking dishes were served to the table by the waiters.
The steaming hot food, emitting an enticing aroma, filled the entire room with a mouthwatering smell.
Xia Tao's eyes widened as he gazed at the table laden with delicious food. He rubbed his hands together excitedly, muttering, "Wow, so much good food! Hehe, we're really benefiting from my sister's good fortune today!"
Everyone sat around the table, enjoying the delicious food and chatting happily.
During the meal, Li Chengjun enthusiastically told Xia Wan and her brother about the local customs and culture of Beijing, as well as some things that needed special attention.
Xia Wan listened quietly, silently memorizing this important information.
After all, although she had visited the capital city many times in her previous life, the times she lived in now were different, and many things may have changed, even people's ways of doing things may have changed.
Therefore, she must be fully aware of these new circumstances.
After the meal, Li Chengjun personally drove Xia Wan and her brother home.
As soon as Xia Wan stepped into her home, she didn't stop for a moment and immediately began packing her luggage, making careful preparations for her upcoming trip to Beijing.
After a busy day, Xia went to bed to rest.
She lay on the soft, comfortable bed, her gaze involuntarily falling on the note Li Chengjun had handed her earlier.
At this moment, she was filled with mixed feelings.
On the one hand, she was deeply worried about her father's condition, wondering if she could find an effective treatment in Beijing this time.
On the other hand, from her interactions with Li Chengjun, she clearly sensed his excessive enthusiasm towards her.
Xia Wan would never believe that he wasn't after something.
However, no matter how hard she racked her brains, she couldn't think of anything about herself that would make Li Chengjun care so much about her.
When Xia Wan went home, she didn't forget to bring her father a meal. Although it wasn't late, she didn't plan to cook at home.
When Xia Wan returned home, she quickly served the food she had brought back from outside and presented it to her father, Xia Jianguo, who was sitting in a chair in the main room. At the same time, she carefully reminded him:
