"It's up to him to decide?" Tang Xinyi uttered a faint cry, feeling her heart kind of sinking to her stomach.
Wandong threw an amused glance at Tang Xinyi and said to her with a charming smile, "General Tang, as an old saying goes, every dog has its day. At last, it's time you came to me for help."
"You..."Tang Xinyi stumbled over her words, blushing with inhibition rather than fury. It had been times without number that she told Wandong that she didn't need Wandong's help at all. The din of her words had scarcely died away, but she had to go back on her words now. Being a bashful girl, Tang Xinyi felt rather embarrassed.
"Are...are you helping me or not?" Tang Xinyi went on faltering. Being a girl, after all, she was inclined to say something soft to please Wandong, as the combat effectiveness of the Fengxiang Armed Escort outweighed her dignity. Anyhow, she changed her tone involuntarily.
"Humph, if he dares to turn you away, I'll certainly chop him off for you," a girl's voice came from the outside, along with her appearance. It turned out to be Sun Xiaoya, she breezed in before Wandong came up with a proper response.
"Xiaoya, " Tang Xinyi rose and gave her a cordial greeting, fairly delighted on meeting her.
"Sister Tang, I learned every bit if it. Did he bully you?" Sun Xiaoya hastened to inquire after Tang Xinyi.
Tang rolled her eyes at Wandong and answered, "You shouldn't have belittled me. You find it possible that he has what it takes to bully me?"
No sooner had he finished what she said than she was seized with remorse. She had gone too far offending Wandong. It appeared she didn't stand a chance to let Wandong help her with the formation methods.
"It was already fortunate that you two girls didn't bully Wandong instead, " another voice came in, which was from Sun Daobai. He strode inside, with a kindly smile. He appeared so hale and hearty that he looked as if he aged in reverse.
Being an acute observer, Xu Wenchuan forthwith spotted Sun Daobai's unusual youthfulness. He greeted Sun Daobai, with a heartfelt laugh, "Well, you old boy, it seems you can live for another thirty decades hands down. Hahaha..."
Looking at Wandong with earnest gratitude, Sun Daobai twiddled his white beard and said, "Thanks to Yaoting, he told me that I'd better disperse the inflammatory toxins in my body to the acupuncture points of little significance. Doing as he said, I have indeed let out quite a bit of the pressure within me. And I do feel refreshed. It's rather embarrassing, entitled the Medical Sage, I was eventually cured by a youngster."
"Don't be so hard on yourself, Grandpa Sun. As being said, doctors don't cure themselves. If it had happened to someone else, you would have immediately come up with a precise treatment, " Wandong soothed Sun Daobai with a compliment.
"Aha, how come you're so sweet today? Did you get honey on your lips? Well... I see, having rendered an outstanding service, you are begging for rewards from my grandad with your compliment?" Sun Xiaoya cut in with girlish obtrusiveness.
Sun Daobai rolled his eyes at her and twitched his mouth, "You wicked girl, how could you be so offensive. Can't you behave with decorum as Yaoting? Having saved my life, he deserves our gratitude, how could you say he's begging for rewards?"
It appeared Sun Daobai paid a visit for the purpose of extending his gratitude to Wandong.
"Yaoting, as is said, great kindness doesn't call for thankfulness. But I still wish to extend my gratitude to you, " Sun Daobai said, sincerely.
"Senior Sun, we're brothers. Then you're his grandpa just like me to him. Being your grandson, he was supposed to find a way to save your life. Discard your formality, otherwise, I'd suppose you were getting distant from me." Xu Wenchuan cut in, smilingly. He constantly cast glances at Wandong, and the latter appeared increasingly pleasing to him.
