Chapter 82 Chapter 82 The Sword of Damocles
These days, everyone is immersed in the panic of "we will soon be charged with speculation and profiteering", "how will we live if we can't make money in the future", "the system is still strong but we can't get into the system, what should we do", and "Dadadi Night Market will be closed soon", and they are unhappy about everything they do.
No matter how Su Tianli advised everyone to relax,
But everyone still sighed.
However, adhering to the umbrella of "the law does not punish the masses",
Everyone worked harder in business.
——What if the Dadadi Night Market is really closed in half a month? What if all the night markets in the city are closed?
Will we all survive from now on?
So, all we can do is...earn as much as we can now.
Su Tianli thought about it and hung a sign at the entrance of the clinic:
[Newly arrived drugs for the auxiliary treatment of insomnia in our hospital]
A day later, Xu Jiaxi arrived as expected.
Su Tianli smiled as soon as she saw her.
He walked outside and removed the sign that had been hanging for less than twenty-four hours.
Xu Jiaxi watched Su Tianli fiddling with the cards, her eyes sparkling, "Xiao Su, is this how you find me?"
Su Tianli smiled and said, "What else? Where should I go to find you?"
Xu Jiaxi did not answer but asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Su Tianli patted the cards in her hand and pointed heavily at the words "Treat Insomnia" on them.
Xu Jiaxi was stunned. "You... can really help cure my insomnia?"
Honestly, she didn't believe it.
——Her mother’s family has some connections, so she has seen famous doctors all over the country.
Most of the doctors who treated her had a relatively consistent response:
"This is a heart disease! Heart disease must be treated with heart medicine."
Xu Jiaxi also admitted that her insomnia was indeed a source of worry.
Is it a heart-warming medicine?
Xu Jiaxi smiled bitterly.
There is no cure for her mental illness.
Su Tianli smiled and said, "Aunt Xu, your insomnia...is actually a mental illness! This mental illness needs to be treated with mental medicine."
Xu Jiaxi was stunned.
After a while, she smiled, "You are quite clever and eccentric girl."
"Then tell me, what is worrying me?" Xu Jiaxi asked again.
Su Tianli smiled and said, "Aunt Xu, I don't know you very well, so how can I know what's bothering you? But I can cure your insomnia...Aunt Xu, do you want to try it?"
Xu Jiaxi thought for a moment and asked, "What medicine do you want me to take?"
Su Tianli, "No medicine, physical therapy."
Xu Jiaxi pondered, "Physical therapy...does it require me to practice Tai Chi? Ba Duan Jin? Or Wu Qin Xi?"
Su Tianli said: "Aunt Xu, do you dare to go out at night?"
Xu Jiaxi was stunned.
"If you dare to go out, come to the Dadadi Night Market to find me at 5pm sharp," Su Tianli said, "My midnight snack stand is called 'Picking Green Time'... When you go there, you will know what kind of physical therapy I have arranged for you."
Xu Jiaxi lowered her eyelids.
Su Tianli smiled and said, "Don't worry, you won't fall asleep outside. My midnight snack stall won't be open until very late. Generally speaking, it will be closed around 8 o'clock. No later than 9 o'clock... Aunt Xu, are you coming?"
Xu Jiaxi remained silent for a long time.
Su Tianli didn't urge her.
After all, she probably had some understanding of Xu Jiaxi's character.
Some people are socially anxious and seem to be afraid of crowds.
The most important thing is that Xu Jiaxi doesn’t seem to know how to say no.
Su Tianli realized this from the last time she saw Xu Jiaxi at the Municipal People's Hospital, she was so powerless that she couldn't even refuse the dean.
really--
Xu Jiaxi was in a dilemma.
On the one hand, she subconsciously didn't want to go to places like the night market.
The reason is simple - there are too many people!
She doesn't like crowded places.
On the other hand, she had a good impression of Su Tianli... She hadn't seen such a lively, cute and energetic girl for a long, long time.
Now the little girl invites her to the night market...
This was an unprecedented experience for Xu Jiaxi.
Plus, she's not good at rejecting people.
She didn't want to reject Su Tianli...
So Xu Jiaxi suppressed his inner fear, anxiety and excitement and nodded.
Su Tianli smiled, "Aunt Xu, see you this afternoon."
Xu Jiaxi took a deep breath and left as if escaping.
As soon as she left——
Yao Meiyu rushed over, with a look of excitement and admiration, and said to Su Tianli: "Lychee! Lychee... Oh my god! Are you that amazing?"
"That's what I was wondering. Why did you hang a sign outside yesterday? You said you were treating insomnia! Our small, shabby hospital doesn't have the conditions to treat insomnia! So you wanted to attract He Wanqian's mother!"
"Hey Lizhi, she is He Wanqian's mother!"
"I've never seen her care so much about He Wanqian!"
"From what I can see, she really cares about you..."
"Lizhi, tell me, if He Wanqian knew that her mother is close to you and not to her, would she be so angry that she would die?" Yao Meiyu became more and more excited as she spoke.
Su Tianli poked Yao Meiyu's forehead with her finger and said, "This matter must be kept secret!"
"Remember, unless He Wanqian secretly ran off to Dadadi herself... otherwise, I don't want her to know in advance that her mother has also gone to work for us."
"Do you understand?"
Yao Meiyu blinked and looked at Su Tianli in surprise, "Lychee, lychee! Why do I seem to... smell the scent of conspiracy?"
Su Tianli poked Yao Meiyu's forehead with her finger again, "Okay, you take over here today. I have to go first. I need to go home first, and then go to Dadadi to wait for her before five o'clock."
"Go ahead!" Yao Meiyu smiled and drove her away.
Now, Yao Meiyu roughly guessed what Su Tianli was going to do!
Isn’t He Wanqian like a mad dog, going around complaining?
So Lizhi tricked her mother into going to the stall...
By then - hahahahahaha He Wanqian's mother has been arrested!
May I ask how He Wanqian will respond?
After realizing this, Yao Meiyu couldn't help herself. She put her hands on her hips, tilted her head back, and laughed like a bad guy.
Su Tianli took off her nurse's gown and cap and was about to leave: ...
She gave her silly best friend a fierce look, then tapped her silly best friend's forehead in mid-air and said silently: Keep a low profile!
Yao Meiyu immediately stopped laughing and nodded vigorously.
Su Tianli hurried back to Shaou Street.
Old Mrs. Su and Cheng Yu were surprised to see her come back so early.
Su Tianli didn't have time to explain too much, so she just ordered:
"Grandma, you eat by yourself tonight. Cheng Yu and I will leave now... We will eat at the stall by ourselves."
"Cheng Yu, let's go. We have a lot to do today."
Everyone has always believed in Su Tianli.
Whatever she says is what it is.
So, Cheng Yu quickly prepared the supplies, rode his bicycle with Su Tianli, and the two of them hurried to Dadadi.
Similarly, Mao Li, Zhang Wei and A Juan were very surprised to see Su Cheng and the others come so early.
Su Tianli gathered everyone together and held a brief meeting. "Everyone, listen to me—"
"Auntie Xu, He Wanqian's mother, will come to help us in a while... But He Wanqian is He Wanqian, and Auntie Xu is Auntie Xu. I don't want everyone to be angry with Auntie Xu because of He Wanqian's affairs."
"Also, Aunt Xu is an introvert, so everyone should just keep a normal attitude when facing her. Don't be too enthusiastic towards her, and don't ignore her either..."
"Finally, He Wanqian reported us and the incident at the Dadadi Night Market. I don't want Aunt Xu to know about it for now—at least she can't know about it from us..."
“Can everyone do this?”
Everyone looked at each other.
To be honest——
Except for Ajuan, everyone is a high school student and has been working for several years. They have high IQ and EQ.
Su Tianli said this,
Everyone basically understood Su Tianli's intention.
How to say it?
It's just so refreshing!
So everyone nodded.
Su Tianli looked at Cheng Yu again.
really--
The other kids were all very happy, but they all suppressed their happiness in their hearts, so everyone looked like they wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.
Only Cheng Yu,
He is really unhappy.
Su Tianli is very attracted by his looks.
But when he was unhappy, his originally raised eyebrows drooped down.
The pair of sparkling peach blossom eyes instantly filled with tears, and even the bags under the eyes turned dull and colorless.
He turned his head to the side, pursed his thin lips tightly, and looked at the sky stubbornly...
He said nothing.
But he had already revealed all his grievances to Su Tianli.
Su Tianli felt inexplicably distressed.
She quickly pulled Cheng Yu aside...
And once her slender and warm hand held his thin wrist—
Cheng Yu was stunned.
He lowered his head and looked at her hand on his wrist in disbelief.
It’s so beautiful!
For a moment, everyone was stunned.
My mind is full of:
Ah, I'm dead...
Litchi held my hand!
Why are her fingers so thin?
Looks great...
So this was the “being wronged” she told him about a few days ago?
It's such an injustice...
He can!
He can endure such grievances every day!
Su Tianli pulled Cheng Yu to a corner where there was no one.
Seeing Cheng Yu's confused look,
She felt even more distressed, and gently advised: "Cheng Yu, I know you feel wronged, and you don't want to see her... But this is the best way to defend everyone's interests, and it is also a counterattack against He Wanqian, so that He Wanqian can feel what it means to pick up a rock and drop it on her own feet."
"Please, please! Don't be angry with me. I apologize!" Su Tianli clasped her hands together, placed them in front of her chest and shook them for a few times, then said, "If you really don't want to see her, you can also avoid her... Or, why don't you go back now?"
Su Tianli asked cautiously.
originally--
Cheng Yu was completely immersed in the surging joy and excitement of "I'm being held hand by Lizhi".
He was totally unable to react, so he acted a little dumb.
Now he reacted, but was stunned again.
because,
He discovered from Lizhi's tone and attitude that she cared about him.
Yes, when she gave him a vaccination a few days ago, she had said that she might let him suffer some injustice.
Cheng Yu thought that Lizhi wanted him to take the blame.
As long as I can contribute, it doesn’t matter if I take the blame!
He is such a rotten person… he has no home, no job, and only an elementary school education. He is good for nothing!
He even lived as a homeless person!
Except for this worthless life,
He really couldn't think of any other way he could help Lizhi.
Unexpectedly, Su Tianli cared so much about...his feelings? !
She tricked Xu Jiaxi here with the idea of using someone else as a substitute, which was indeed a brilliant plan that no one had expected.
But Lizhi felt guilty.
She felt guilty that after she called Xu Jiaxi over, it would make him feel uncomfortable!
Cheng Yu's eyes turned red.
Su Tianli became even more anxious, "Cheng Yu, if you really... I'm sorry, sorry! I should have told you earlier... I'm sorry..."
"Su Tianli! Don't say sorry to me!" Cheng Yu said with a sob.
Su Tianli: ...
Seeing Cheng Yu so sad,
She felt very sad and regretful.
But she was also very clear that although all departments were making excuses, no one knew when the Dada land would be closed down.
Just like everyone knows that one day the sword of Damocles will fall, but no one knows when.
If Cheng Yu was not present, even if Xu Jiaxi came, she would not come again once the novelty of the worldly life of the rich and beautiful girl faded.
Only when Cheng Yu is present can Xu Jiaxi's emotions be restrained at all times - no matter whether Xu Jiaxi likes or hates Cheng Yu.
Of course, Su Tianli is more inclined to believe that Xu Jiaxi still has some feelings for Cheng Yu.
Otherwise, why would Xu Jiaxi pay attention to Su Tianli?
Cheng Yu sniffed, "…because you haven't done anything wrong to me!"
"You obviously... care about me a lot," he lowered his head and looked at her with tears in his eyes, "so why do you want to apologize to me?"
"Litchi, I don't feel wronged, not at all..."
"I-I'm just so happy!"
"Because... no one has ever been so nice to me, no one has ever cared so much about my feelings, so I..."
Having said that, Cheng Yu turned and left.
He also has his own tricks.
He knew that Litchi liked his looks.
I especially like to see him smile.
He smiled.
She would stare at the dimples at the corners of his lips in a daze.
But--
Now he was so excited,
He couldn't control his emotions at all!
He had never been so out of control.
So he was afraid that he would not look good when crying...
What if Lizhi thinks he is not good-looking?
It’s better to go away first.
Su Tianli stared at Cheng Yu's fleeing back and was stunned for a long time.
She never expected that Cheng Yu would be so soft and sensitive inside.
She seemed to feel even more sorry for him.
Not far away, Mao Li was curling her hands into a trumpet shape, placing them at the corners of her mouth and loudly calling Su Tianli's name.
Su Tianli had no choice but to return to "Picking Green Time" in a hurry.
