When Shuo Shuo was exposed, she knelt down with a thud, tears streaming down her face: "Master, I didn't mean to. I just like you so much. I want to be with you, but you treat me like a child. I had no choice but to come up with this idea. Please forgive me!"
When Li Pei heard Shuo Shuo tell all this, he smiled bitterly: "I always thought you were a simple and kind child, I never expected you to be this kind of person!"
"Master, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong, please forgive me, please!" Shuo Shuo pleaded desperately.
“You drugged the factory manager with malicious intent. This behavior has violated the law and must be handed over to the police!” Li Ting said sternly.
Shuo Shuo was terrified and rushed up to Li Pei's leg, pleading, "Master, please don't call the police to arrest me! My parents still have me to support. If it weren't for me, they would starve to death. Please!"
Knowing about Shuo Shuo's family situation, Li Pei softened his heart for a moment.
"You can leave. I won't hold you responsible, but you're fired from the factory."
This can be considered Li Pei's greatest act of kindness.
Upon hearing this, Shuo Shuo slumped to the ground, stunned and speechless.
Li Ying and Li Ting helped Li Pei out of the room.
"Comrade Li Ying, please wait!" Leng Yan chased after her and called out loudly.
Li Ying stopped and asked her second brother to take her eldest brother to the hospital for an injection first.
Li Ting helped Li Pei leave, and Li Ying turned around to face Leng Yan.
"Are you the restaurant owner?"
"My surname is Leng, and my given name is Yan. I am the general manager of this restaurant, and the owner is my aunt."
"Did Manager Leng call me for something?"
"Comrade Li Ying is renowned in Kyoto, and I have heard of her many times. I am very fortunate to meet her in person today. My father has been ill for a long time and is difficult to cure. I wonder if it would be possible to ask Dr. Li to treat my father?"
"Manager Leng, you're too kind. I'm a doctor, and treating patients is simply my duty. Manager Leng, please wait for me at the restaurant tomorrow!"
She will still treat people who are sick.
"Then I, Leng, thank Comrade Li Ying."
"Let me make this clear from the start: I'm just a doctor, not a god. Let me examine your father's condition tomorrow before we discuss it further, is that alright?"
"certainly!"
Li Ying took her leave.
Leng Yan toyed with the cigarette in his hand, raising an eyebrow slightly.
This Li Ying is quite different from what I've heard; that's interesting.
Li Ying returned home, and Li Ting also returned from the hospital.
"Where's my older brother?"
"I went to pick up my sister-in-law." Li Ting said with a smile as he poured water. "Yingying, that was a brilliant move of yours!"
"Once we figure out what Shuo Shuo is for, we'll know she won't give up easily. So let's give her a push, and everything will be different."
"Aren't you afraid of things going wrong along the way?"
"Second brother, what do you do? I asked you to keep an eye on eldest brother to prevent things from getting out of control. Fortunately, everything is under control."
Li Ting gave a thumbs up: "Impressive!"
That evening, Li Pei brought Ya Ru back, and the two seemed less hostile than before.
Yang Mei and Li Dongguo were also very happy.
The next day, Li Ying arrived at the restaurant with a first-aid kit, where Leng Yan had been waiting for a long time.
"Manager Leng."
Leng Yan likes to wear a snow-white suit, even when it's already the hot month of May.
"Let's go."
A black vintage car was parked in front of the restaurant.
The Leng family lived in a small alleyway, with only two bedrooms and a living room. They looked very poor. The mother was mute and could only wave her hands and make a "ba ba ba ba ba" sound when she saw visitors. The father lay on the bed coughing incessantly, holding a handkerchief in his hand. The room was filled with the smell of herbs.
"He's taken a lot of medicine, but there's been no improvement." Leng Yan's face was cold and stern, but there was no tenderness that should belong to a son.
Even the mute mother and the man in the bed looked somewhat fearful when they saw Leng Yan.
Li Ying didn't want to meddle in other people's business. She sat down, took Leng's father's pulse, and then said, "You've probably seen many doctors, and the diagnosis is tuberculosis."
The mute man waved his hands, while the father coughed incessantly, covering his mouth with a handkerchief.
“Miss Li is right, everyone’s diagnosis is tuberculosis.”
At this point, there were already very good medications available for treating tuberculosis, so there was no reason why this person wouldn't benefit from the medication.
"Could you bring me your medication so I can take a look?"
The mute mother hurriedly ran to get the medicine back; there were both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine.
Li Ying had seen it; it was for treating tuberculosis, a Western medicine that was not commonly available on the market and was very expensive.
How long did you eat?
"It's been half a year, and there's still no improvement," Leng Yan replied.
"What does your father do for a living?" Li Ying asked while looking at the drug instructions.
"He used to fish by the sea and catch snails and the like."
"So besides tuberculosis, he also has schistosomiasis."
Li Ying asked for paper and pen, wrote down the name of a medicine, and handed it to Leng Yan.
"Go to a pharmacy and get this. Pay attention to your diet, and you should feel better in two weeks."
Leng Yan looked at the name of the medicine on the note: "Is it that simple?"
"It's that simple! You probably didn't take your father to the hospital for a checkup. If you had, he wouldn't have been taking medicine for half a year without any improvement." Li Ying was somewhat skeptical of her son.
"Don't blame Yan'er, it was my reluctance to go to the hospital that led me to find a doctor to see her," Father Leng hurriedly explained.
Li Ying smiled and said, "Whether it's tuberculosis or schistosomiasis, it's not a serious illness. You can just take some medicine."
Li Ying walked out of the alley accompanied by Leng Yan.
"Manager Leng, please leave me here. I can go back by myself."
"I'll take Dr. Li there; this street is too chaotic." Leng Yan said firmly, walking towards the car first.
Li Ying got into the car.
Upon arriving at the Li family's gate, Li Ying got out of the car, and Leng Yan suddenly spoke up: "Dr. Li seems to want to say something to me?"
Li Ying shook her head: "No, I didn't mean to say anything."
"You seem unhappy with my attitude, and you think I'm cold-blooded, right?"
Li Ying was stunned. This person had a strong sense of observation; he had noticed it all. But not only did he notice it, he also had to say it out loud. She really didn't know if he was being clever or just showing off.
"so what?"
"I was abducted when they were little." Li Ying was stunned by those words. It took her a while to say something apologetic before Leng Yan's car drove away.
"This person is really interesting, bringing up something like this with me?"
Li Ying found it funny.
"Yingying, was that Leng Yan, the manager of Zhenhai Restaurant, just now?" Yang Mei carried Chenchen out and happened to see Leng Yan driving away.
"Yes, it's him."
“This person is quite famous around here. The Zhenhai Restaurant where he works is owned by the Jing family. He has recognized an aunt from the Jing family as his godmother. He is a ruthless person. There have been rumors about him for a long time. You should stay away from him in the future.” Yang Mei did not want her daughter to get involved with some shady people as soon as she returned.
"Mom, we shouldn't judge people and things based on hearsay; we should be more objective. But don't worry, I won't make friends indiscriminately, except when I'm treating patients!"
