When Elder Lian heard Yin Zhongzheng say he was going to fly to Hong Kong, he was quite surprised and asked, "Why so suddenly?"
“Someone in Hong Kong asked me to treat a patient.” Yin Zhongzheng wasn’t exactly lying; there really was someone who asked him to treat a patient, “and the offer was far too much.”
Old Lian had thought he would be able to enjoy the moon with Yin Zhongzheng tonight, but he sighed for no reason, "I'm all alone again."
"After all these years, you still haven't gotten used to it?" Yin Zhongzheng said calmly and indifferently. "If you're not used to it, go find them and have some fun."
"Need not."
Old Lian waved his hand; he was old and didn't like crowds.
I just want to spend the holiday alone in peace and quiet.
Yin Zhongzheng and Elder Lian made a lot of mooncakes. Elder Lian asked his guards to give the mooncakes he made by hand to the other people in the courtyard.
The filling of the mooncakes was a medicinal diet personally prepared by Yin Zhongzheng.
It's perfect for autumn health maintenance; eating it is good for your health.
Whether people genuinely like it or not, on the surface, everyone likes it.
Elder Lian and Yin Zhongzheng sat together, eating mooncakes, drinking osmanthus wine, and enjoying the food.
"Junior brother, is it possible to cure Huo Dongfang's illness?"
Yin Zhongzheng said very objectively, "Acupuncture is not my forte, but his illness happens to require acupuncture. If we can find my senior sister, there is still a glimmer of hope."
Even the old man sighed helplessly.
Don't even mention Huo Dongfang wanting to find Xu Banxia.
He wanted to as well.
The sea of people is vast.
Why is it so difficult?
Even though he killed countless enemies on the battlefield, those were invaders, people who deserved to die.
He didn't kill them.
They have to kill him and the common people.
But his wife, Xu Banxia, is a doctor.
She saved so many people, doesn't she deserve a peaceful end?
Does this mean the couple can never be reunited in this lifetime?
"Junior brother, it's all my fault."
As a man, it was his fault for failing to protect his wife.
As a father, it was his fault for failing to protect his son.
If Heaven truly has a way of punishing, why doesn't it punish him?
Yin Zhongzheng looked up at the sky and said, "What's wrong with you? The fault lies with this era, and with the people who started this war!"
The invaders' iron hooves trampled the mountains and rivers.
The people were displaced.
In this situation, being able to survive is already a stroke of luck.
Will I ever have the chance to be reunited with my family in this lifetime?
Even the old man's eyes were gentle.
His voice trembled.
"During the Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone else is having a family reunion. When will it be our turn to have a family reunion?"
Even this question from the elderly cannot be answered by anyone.
The atmosphere became somewhat somber, and Yin Zhongzheng remained silent, simply sipping his wine.
Fearing he would miss his flight, Yin Zhongzheng was personally escorted to the airport by Elder Lian.
"Junior brother, come back as soon as you're done with your business in Hong Kong, and we'll go find her together."
Yin Zhongzheng: "Okay."
After watching Yin Zhongzheng leave, Old Lian walked alone in the vast crowd.
In the bustling crowd, even the old man seemed so lonely.
His lonely figure was heartbreaking to see.
As Old Lian walked along, he suddenly saw a familiar face in the crowd.
In an instant, Lian Lao quickly pushed through the crowd and ran unsteadily.
"Pinellia ternata!"
"Xu Banxia!"
"Xu Banxia!"
Even the old man was wounded on the battlefield.
He usually uses a cane when he walks.
But when he saw that familiar face, he chased after it frantically.
He was old and had difficulty walking, and in just a moment, that similar face disappeared.
Old Lian stood in the crowd, looking around anxiously.
No.
Is it because he misses her too much?
Is that why I have this misconception?
Even as he angrily pounded his own legs with his hands, he realized they were just too weak!
If only I had run just a little faster!
Then you'll be able to see it clearly.
At least, he could see whether it was a real face or a hallucination caused by his longing for someone.
Even the old man stood in the crowd, looking extremely disheveled.
Crowds thronged all around.
No one stopped for him.
After an unknown amount of time, Lian Laocai picked up his cane from the ground with a bitter expression, turned around and left with a mocking look.
He's overthinking it.
That face... how could it possibly be his Banxia?
His Banxia must be as old as him!
I'm getting old!
I'm getting old!
The thought of getting old brought tears to Lian Lao's eyes.
He had almost forgotten the fact that his Banxia was dead.
He only remembered what Banxia looked like when she was young, and he only had photos of her when she was young.
But if she gets old, she will definitely be different from when she was young.
If she is different from when she was young, how will he recognize her?
Wouldn't that mean he might pass by Banxia without even recognizing her?
This thought was like an invisible hand, tearing at his nerves.
He was desperate and helpless.
It felt as if the world was spinning.
Everything went black, and he crashed to the floor behind him.
Just then, Elder Lian's bodyguard appeared, helped the unconscious Elder Lian up, and walked away into the distance.
Seeing this, the people around simply made way for him, curiously observing Old Man Lian.
At the same time, Huo Dongfang, who had just bought roast duck with Ye Fanxing, also walked towards the direction where the guards were.
Living in the same compound, Huo Dongfang spotted Elder Lian's bodyguard at a glance.
"What happened?"
