Chapter 247 There's something I want to ask you.
"Yes, just me."
"Your parents are doing well."
"Yes, my parents are the best parents in the world." Little Peach Blossom was especially proud when talking about her parents.
Xiao Peichuan also thought that Xiao Taohua's parents were excellent.
After all, these days, if a family has no sons, parents who treat their daughters this well are truly exceptional people.
However, there is only one daughter in the family...
Xiao Peichuan thought about his health and feared he would let Xiao Taohua's parents down.
"Feel sorry."
"Huh?" Little Peach Blossom didn't quite understand why Xiao Peichuan, who was speaking so well, was suddenly apologizing.
"I'm a burden to you."
"Um?"
"You should have found a better partner, preferably someone who is also healthy."
You're great.
Looking at her, Xiao Peichuan had to admit that Xiao Taohua was indeed a very sweet-talking person.
Although he still felt selfish and despicable, there was a saying that comforted Xiao Peichuan: it wasn't that he was unwilling to let go, but that the girl had made up her mind about him.
Secretly pleased, Xiao Peichuan reached out to touch Xiao Taohua's hair, but withdrew his hand halfway through.
Although we're dating, it's only the first day we've met, so I can't be too impulsive.
While the two were having a good time, Li Zhen was frantically searching for someone.
"Professor, you really didn't see it?"
The professor was also anxious; he was looking for Little Peach Blossom too, but couldn't find her: "She's not here, really not with you?"
"No!" Li Zhen also shook his head.
"Where did this girl go?"
"Let's go look again."
"Alright, you guys go ahead."
As they left the office, Li Zhen and the others wore stern faces.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen to Little Peach Blossom," Song Yi comforted her.
Li Zhen glanced at him: "Even if nothing goes wrong, what if you run into bad people?"
According to Li Zhen's idea, Xiao Taohua should ideally encounter only those who are truly good and kind; he was afraid that even the slightest imperfection would hurt Xiao Taohua's heart.
"If you run into them, it's just bad luck for the other person," Song Yi said.
Li Zhen was too lazy to waste words with him.
"Hey, wait a minute, let's look together."
“Let’s split up. You go to the supply and marketing cooperative, Xiaoguang go to the park, and I’ll go look around the streets.”
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
The group went their separate ways.
It's no wonder they're anxious. After so long of school, this is the first time Li Zhen and the others have been separated from Xiao Taohua for so long. Before, they knew where she was when they were separated, but now they can't find her at all.
Unfortunately, the group searched many places but still couldn't find the person, and eventually returned to the school.
"I don't have any here."
"I don't have any here either."
Song Yi and Lin Xiaoguang looked at Li Zhen.
"I haven't found it here either."
This time, all three of them fell silent.
Nobody wants to think about the worst possible outcome.
"My sister will be fine." It was Lin Xiaoguang who spoke.
"I know nothing will happen, but I'm still worried," Song Yi said.
"Let's go look again," Li Zhen said.
This is the only way now.
Xiao Taohua, who was worried about by many people, had a satisfying dinner at her boyfriend's house. She then gave him acupuncture and a medicinal bath before reluctantly leaving. Oh, no, she was seen off by Xiao Da.
Although Xiao Taohua said she didn't need to send it, Xiao Da, Xiao Er, and Xiao Peichuan all insisted, so Xiao Taohua naturally wouldn't refuse her partner's request.
She is such an understanding and kind person.
Thinking of this, Little Peach Blossom was all smiles the whole way.
Xiao Da turned his head to look at Xiao Taohua, who was laughing happily beside him, and couldn't help but smile as well. Xiao Taohua seemed to be a girl who could make people happy, and it was a good thing that Pei Chuan met her.
"Miss Lin, I'll be troubling you with Pei Chuan from now on."
"It's okay, that's my boyfriend."
"But thank you anyway." When they saw Xiao Taohua giving Xiao Da and Xiao Er acupuncture, their hearts were in their throats. But after the acupuncture, Xiao Peichuan's spirits visibly improved, which made them believe that Xiao Taohua was really amazing, even more amazing than the miracle doctors they had found before.
Xiao Da and Xiao Er wouldn't delve into the details, nor would they care how Xiao Taohua learned her medical skills. They were simply grateful—grateful to have met Xiao Taohua, grateful that Xiao Taohua had taken a liking to Pei Chuan, and grateful for their current encounter. Did anything else really matter?
It doesn't matter.
Regardless of Xiao Taohua's motives, the fact that they can see Pei Chuan recover makes her their greatest benefactor.
Even if Xiao Taohua asks them to do something, they will do it as long as it doesn't violate righteousness.
Not only them, but I believe the people in their hometown feel the same way.
Anyone who has seen Xiao Peichuan for so many years would feel pity and regret. Everyone would wish that such a young master could live a little longer, much longer.
Even better if one lives a carefree and unrestrained life.
Unfortunately, the young master was frail yet kind and understanding, which always made people feel bittersweet when they saw him.
The girl in front of them gave Xiao Da and Xiao Er hope.
Even if he can't be cured in the future, as long as Pei-chuan gets better, they will treat Xiao-Tao-hua with respect for the rest of their lives. If Xiao-Tao-hua gets married in the future, they will give her the best dowry and become her support.
The Xiao family may not be much, but they are still a powerful force. If Xiao Taohua suffers any injustice in the future, she will have someone to rely on.
And this reliance is forever.
"Um, there's something I want to ask you." Little Peach Blossom's originally cheerful steps slowed down a bit, and she said hesitantly.
"Miss Lin, please speak."
Did Pei-chuan have a girlfriend before?
Xiao Da hadn't expected this question, so he naturally shook his head: "Pei Chuan has been focusing on his health and hasn't had a partner."
"So that means I was his first girlfriend."
"Yes."
"Hehe, he's also my first boyfriend, don't worry, I'll treat him well."
“We, Pei Chuan, will also treat Miss Lin well.”
"Yes, it's only right that Pei Chuan treats me well, since I'm so good to him."
Xiao laughed and said, "Yes, that's only right."
This personality is a perfect match for Pei Chuan.
If someone were truly scheming, they wouldn't have won Pei Chuan's favor; at most, he would offer a few thank-you gifts and help them as much as he could in the future.
"Can you tell me what Pei-chuan likes? What are his hobbies?"
“Our Pei-chuan likes reading, and he is good at everything from playing the zither and chess to calligraphy and painting.” There’s nothing we can do about it; his health isn’t good, so we can only choose things that don’t strain his body. Even when it comes to reading, his family tries to limit his reading to avoid tiring him out.
"Wow, that's amazing! I can't do that." Although Little Peach Blossom loves reading and has a photographic memory, she doesn't like everything. The arts and sciences that Xiao Da mentioned are definitely the kind she doesn't like.
However, with his talent in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and his good looks, he would have been considered a noble young master in ancient times.
"Is your Xiao family very powerful?" she asked, thinking to herself.
"Yes, it's a large family, and the family has its own school."
Little Peach Blossom's eyes widened in surprise.
Clan studies? That seems to be something from an old era.
"Is everything alright?"
Xiao Da understood what Xiao Taohua meant by asking this question, and shook his head, saying, "No problem, our place is far from the capital, so many things don't affect us there."
