"I will let you know tomorrow . Please help me take care of all the trouble caused by this if I decide to go to Beijing . If I decide not to go, please do not come back to me for this," said Wang Yao .
"Okay, I promise!" said Guo Sirou .
Guo Sirou then left .
Beijing!
Wang Yao looked through the window while lying on the couch . The sun had gone down, and the leaves were swaying in the wind . San Xian was sitting inside his dog house, and Da Xia was standing on the tree .
It was very quiet on the hill .
Wang Yao went back home after dark and found his sister was home as well .
"Hi, Sis, it's not Sunday or a holiday today . What brings you back?" asked Wang Yao .
"I'm here for you!" said Wang Ru grumpily .
"Me? Why does it have anything to do with me?" asked Wang Yao .
"The person who wanted you to see a patient asked one of the deputy mayors to be his sponsor . People from my workplace saw him and the deputy mayor the other day and told almost everyone in my workplace . They all thought I have something to do with that deputy major . Some people even said I was his mistress! Whose mistress?!" said Wang Ru angrily .
Wang Yao was surprised to hear his sister's complaints . He didn't expect to bring so much trouble to his sister . It was really him who made people talk behind his sister's back .
"I've decided to take two days off so that I won't hear all that gossip," said Wang Ru .
"Well, sis, you haven't done anything wrong . I think the longer you hide away from this, the more they will talk about you," said Wang Yao .
People would gossip, and there was nothing Wang Yao could do to stop them . But, he could do something to prevent further damage to his sister's reputation .
"By the way, what is the name of that deputy mayor?" asked Wang Yao .
"I don't know," said Wang Ru grumpily .

"Yao, where are Chen Boyuan and Xia Su from?" asked Zhang Xiuying .
"Beijing," replied Wang Yao .
"Beijing?" said Wang Ru in surprise . "People from Beijing would come all the way here to ask you to treat some patient?"
"Haha, I don't know why, maybe because your brother has some unique medical skills," said Wang Yao .
"Beijing is so far from here," said Zhang Ziuying .
She had been thinking about Chen Boyuan and Xia Su since their visit a few days ago . As Wang Ru mentioned them, she was even more worried . Obviously, those two men were powerful enough to have a deputy mayor as a guarantor . It was beyond her imagination because her family was ordinary .
"Mom, you don't need to worry about it . " Wang Yao could tell that his mother was worried . "Those people will leave very soon, and they will no longer bother us," added Wang Yao .
"Are they powerful people from Beijing?" asked Wang Ru .
"I suppose so," replied Wang Yao .
"How did they know about you?" asked Wang Ru seriously . She was also worried about her brother .
"I guess they just heard of me from someone," replied Wang Yao .
"Let's have dinner first . We can talk about it later," said Wang Fenghua who ended the topic .
Wang Yao didn't go back to Nanshan hill after dinner as his father asked him to stay . Wang Yao sat with his family and watched TV, ate some fruit and sunflower seeds, and talked for a bit .
"Yao, who do they want you to see?" asked Wang Fenghua .
"Should be a young girl," replied Wang Yao .
"Is she pretty? Well, how about you and Tong Wei? Is she going to come back here during Labor Day weekend?" Wang Ru's eyes brightened up .
"Right! Labor Day is around the corner . You should pick up Tong Wei from Dao City . I think that girl is really nice . How have you been getting along with her recently?" As soon as someone mentioned Tong Wei, Zhang Xiuying was excited .
Wang Ru and Zhang Xiuying successfully made the whole family forget about those people from Beijing temporarily .

Cough! Cough! Wang Fenghua coughed twice .
"Sorry to interrupt, Dad," said Wang Ru .
"Is the girl very ill?" asked Wang Fenghua .
"Yes, they said she could only live for about seven more days," said Wang Yao .
"What? Only seven days!?" said Zhang Xiuying in shock .
"Which doctor can be so accurate about how long she can last for?!" Wang Ru sounded doubtful .
"We are talking about doctors in Beijing . It is not uncommon for prestigious families to know divine Chinese Traditional Medical Practitioners . Some practitioners have higher medical skills than what you could ever imagine," said Wang Yao . Wang Yao thought about Sang Guzi who he met in Cangzhou . Cang Guzi was one of those practitioners . He was not only an extraordinary doctor but also a noble person . He was the role model of medical practitioners .
"Can you cure her?" asked Wang Fenghua .
"I'm not sure . I have to see her in person to make an accurate diagnosis," said Wang Yao . He just realized that his father seemed to care about this very much which surprised and confused Wang Yao .
"Dad, what's going on today? How come you are so interested in this?" asked Wang Yao .
"Nothing . I just thought that human life should be of greater value than anything else," said Wang Fenghua .
"You are right, but your son is not the god of mercy who must save everyone," said Wang Yao .
"Well, don't worry about what I said; you make your own decision . Don't worry about bringing us trouble," said Wang Fenghua .
"I see," said Wang Yao .
Wang Yao left home at around 9 pm and went back to Nanshan hill .
Should I go to Beijing? thought Wang Yao on his way to Nanshan hill .
In Beijing, which was thousands of miles away from Lianshan, was one of the busiest cities in the eastern hemisphere . The nightlife in Beijing was even more colorful than what was happening during the day .

. . .
Somewhere in Beijing located a quiet house .
Several people were sitting around a bed .
"How is she?" one of those people asked .
"I tried to use acupuncture to save her, but it didn't work well . If no one can come across a solution within three days, even God can't save her!" said a doctor .
"Three days?" said a graceful middle-aged woman whose body was shaking . She almost fell to the ground .
"Mom!" a handsome and strong young man standing next to her held on to her .
"Have you heard from Boyuan?" said the middle-aged woman .
"Not yet . Boyuan has seen the doctor . But he still doesn't want to come here . Miss Guo also went to see the doctor," said the young man .
"Well, tell Boyuan, don't force him to do anything against his will!" said the middle-aged woman .
"What? Why?" asked the young man .
"It's her destiny!" said an old man in his 70's . "It's Xue's destiny!"
"Grandpa, I don't believe in destiny . I can go to South Xinjiang immediately to invite that person here!" said the young man .
The old man shook his head silently .
"That person was so ill himself; how can he come here?" said the middle-aged woman .
"Who is talking next to me?" asked a girl lying in the bed . "I can see a bright light . What is it?" said the girl again .
The girl in a deep sleep seemed to see a bright light and a lot of people, including her grandpa, father, mother, and brother . All of her family members seemed to be sad . They were talking and crying .
"Why are you so sad? Is it because of me?" murmured the girl .
Am I going to die?
She had thought about death numerous times and had also cheated death numerous times . It looked like she wouldn't be able to survive this time .
"San Xian, do you think I should go to Beijing?" murmured Wang Yao .
He was sitting outside his cottage and looked at the sky . San Xian was lying next to him .
He didn't want to go to Beijing because he was afraid that his current lifestyle would be disrupted . But it looked like the more he was scared of going to Beijing, the more likely he was going to go .
Wang Yao stared at the sky until 10 pm; then he returned to his cottage .
That night he had a weird dream . He dreamed about a girl wearing a colorful dress and riding on white clouds . He couldn't see her face, but when he woke up and thought about it, he believed the girl he dreamed about must be extremely pretty . A goddess from heaven must be very pretty .
The sunshine was dim the next morning .
A person was practicing Tai Chi on the top of Nanshan hill . The wind passed as he was moving .
. . .
It was windy at the beach of Haiqu; the tide was coming in . A pretty young woman was standing on the beach and looking at the ocean .
"Have you heard from him yet, Miss?" asked her friend .
"I'm waiting for his call," said the young woman .
"Why does he dislike Beijing so much?" asked her friend .
"I would do the same if I were him . " The young woman ran her fingers through her hair as the wind blew .
She continued, "Country life is so nice . You can stay quiet and do whatever you want . Think about it, if he goes to Beijing and cures Xue, everyone in the medical and pharmaceutical industry would know him . Xue's family had invited so many specialists from both China and overseas . None of those people could cure Xue . A person must possess incredible medical skills to be able to cure Xue . Every one of us could be ill because of what we eat and what we do . It would be wonderful to have high social status, money, and health at the same time!"
"You can't have everything," said her friend .
"So, it was not easy to find a good doctor . Once people get to know his extraordinary medical skills, he will no longer have a peaceful life . I'm afraid some people will try their best to keep him in Beijing!" said the young woman .
"I don't think we are powerful enough to get rid of all the potential trouble caused to him easily," said her friend .
