“What more details do you need?” the doctor asked . “Let me be honest with you . I was talking about the possibility of cancerization . ”
“What? How could it be possible?” Cao He asked .
“Tell me, what do you think is the cause of cancer?” the doctor asked .
“The sudden change of genes,” Cao He said .
“Well, we won’t talk about genes now . To make it simple, cancer starts to develop when the internal environment of a human body changes and the human body is harmed continuously by external factors,” the doctor said . “Cao Meng is in such a condition . He hasn’t been able to eat anything . Once he starts to eat, his body will respond fiercely to resist the food . All the organs of the human body have their own functions . The stomach and intestines digest the food . They need to maintain their function by food intake . Otherwise, they will start to have problems, like an empty house . If you leave a house or a field to be empty for too long, the weeds will start to grow . If the stomach stops working for too long, it will also have problems .
“Do you have any good suggestions?” Cao He asked .
“Not really for now . I will arrange a meeting with other specialists to discuss Cao Meng’s case . Maybe the other doctors have a way to treat him,” the doctor said .
“Thank you,” Cao He said .
“You are welcome,” the doctor said .
Cao He felt depressed after walking out of the doctor’s office .
“What did the doctor say?” asked Cao Hui, who had just returned from running some errands .
“Not good . ” Cao He shook his head .

It was not good indeed .
Cao Hui kept silent for a while before saying, “Maybe you are right . Our big brother should admit what he has done was wrong . It is better for the doer to undo what he has done . ”
“Can you visit the village where Wang Yao lives? Don’t tell our big brother,” Cao He said .
“OK,” Cao Hui said .
The next day, Cao Hui went to Wang Family Village by herself . She soon found Wan Yao’s clinic . There was no patient inside the clinic . She knocked at the door and went in .
“Good afternoon, Dr . Wang,” Cao Hui said .
“Good afternoon,” Wang Yao said with surprise .
Cao Hui looked well-educated, and she was quite good-looking . However, she looked tired . “My name is Cao Hui . I am Cao Meng’s sister . ”
“I know who you are . Please sit down,” Wang Yao said .
Cao Hui was from an isolated village in central China . She graduated from one of the best universities in China . She had an accounting degree . She and Cao He were from the same village . Wang Yao couldn’t imagine people like Cao He and Cao Hui would work for people like Cao Meng . He was amazed that two excellent young people were working for a scumbag like Cao Meng .
He was curious about why Cao He and Cao Hui were so loyal to Cao Meng . Two people who could have a right future chose to become gangsters .
“May I ask why people like you would work for Cao Meng? I’m just curious,” Wang Yao said .

“Cao He and I are from the same village . Our village is very poor,” said Cao Hui as she looked through the window . She was thinking about her past . “Most people from that village lived off of farming . We weren’t really starving, but we were pretty much short of food all the time . The nearest school was five miles away . I had to walk there every day . I stayed on campus when I was studying in middle school . The food there was terrible . I told myself I had to study hard to enter a good university so that my life would change completely . I didn’t want to stay in that village anymore . ”
Cao Hui pause briefly and continued her story . “My family wanted me to quit high school because I have two younger brothers . My parents wanted me to start to work so that I could bring home money for my brothers to go to school . You know how it is like in the countryside, girls are treated like trash . My dad said even if I could study in the university, he couldn’t afford to pay the tuition fees . I said I would apply for a loan . My family was apparently not happy with me . I didn’t go home for two months . I had to borrow money from my teacher to buy food in the school . ”
“Have some water . ” Wang Yao gave Cao Hui a glass of water .
“Thank you,” Cao Hui said . “So, I continued to study until the last year of high school . However, my mother fell sick that year . She needed $40,000 for a treatment fee . That amount might be nothing nowadays, but it was a huge amount of money for my family back then . My dad used up all his savings and had to borrow money for my mother’s treatment . He asked me to quit school one day . ”
“I was very upset and in tears,” Cao Hui said . “God knows what kind of life I had during my high school years . Students from the town ate fried chicken, cakes, and ice cream all the time . I had never tasted any of those . I only ate buns and vegetable . My clothes were always shabby . People looked down on me . I survived and almost finished high school . However, I decided to give up . ”
“At that time, Cao Meng came into my life,” Cao Hui said . “He asked me why I was crying . I told him what had happened with my family . He was smoking and kept silent for a long while after listening to my story . He followed me home and gave my family money for my mother’s treatment . He said we didn’t need to pay him back as long as I continued to study . He was happy to provide financial support to my study . At that moment, he was a god to me . ”
Wang Yao was surprised to hear that . He didn’t expect that a scumbag like Cao Meng would offer help to a family in need .
“I successfully entered the university . He helped me pay the tuition fees for the first two years . Without him, I couldn’t even finish high school, let alone studying in the university,” Cao Hui said . “My life would be completely different . I would have married someone I didn’t like and had kids . I would have continued to live in poverty and hoped that my children would have a different life in the future . ”
Wang Yao suddenly felt sorry for Cao Hui . “So, Cao He was in the same situation as you?”
“Yeah, slightly better, but was pretty much the same,” Cao Hui said .
Cao Meng helped the two young people at the darkest time of their lives . At that moment, Cao Meng was a god to them . No matter how evil he was, he helped them and changed their lives . Of course, the two young people would keep that in mind and return the favor . They would offer assistance if they knew Cao Meng was doing something illegal . They didn’t care . They just wanted to help one of the most important persons in their lives .
After explaining to Wang Yao why she and Cao He worked for Cao Meng, Cao Hui started to talk about her purpose of visit .

“Dr . Wang, can you cure our big brother?” Cao Hui asked .
“Yes, I can,” Wang Yao said .
“What should we do to make you help him?” Cao Hui asked .
“I want him to confess to the police what he did and disclose the person who asked him to commit those crimes,” Wang Yao said .
Just as I expected, Cao Hui though . “I don’t think he knows the person behind this . ”
“Then, he has to confess his crime to the police and accept the consequences,” Wang Yao said .
“I see . I will let him know,” Cao Hui said .
“OK . I think you should stop working for them,” Wang Yao said .
Cao Hui just smiled . She and Cao He were returning a favor to Cao Meng . However, neither of them knew when it would end .
Maybe after Cao Meng was put in jail, she and Cao He would eventually get out of his gang . Although they hadn’t participated in anything bad directly in the past few years, they offered a lot of help to Cao Meng .
Maybe it is a good thing to end our working relationship with Cao Meng, Cao Hui thought .
After she left Wang Yao’s clinic, she called Cao He .
“You should come back now,” Cao He said .
Since they had confirmed that Cao Meng’s condition was caused by Wang Yao, the next step was to convince Cao Meng to confess his crimes . However, they were not sure if Cao Meng would listen to them .
Wang Yao kept thinking about what Cao Hui said after she had left . A person’s poor situation often attributed to his or her own fault . He presumed there were many people like Cao Hui and Cao He in China .
What a shame! He sighed .
It was very quiet that night . Wang Yao was sitting outside his cottage looking up at the sky . His dog was lying quietly next to him .
“Do you know, San Xian, I met a poor girl today,” Wang Yao said .
He believed what Cao Hui told him was true because he had read their personal profile . He knew her background but didn’t know exactly what she had experienced .
Woof! Woof! San Xian barked in a low voice .
“There will be a thunderstorm tomorrow,” Wang Yao said .
He went up to the top of the hill the next morning . The sky looked gloomy . He didn’t do breathing exercises or practice Chinese boxing . He just stood there looking at the sky, his surroundings, and the far corner of the village .
He didn’t know when Nanshan Hill started to grow higher . It had continued to grow since . Wang Yao didn’t know how high Nanshan Hill would become . He didn’t want to control it . Plus, he couldn’t control the growth of a hill anyway . Hills had spirit .
It was cloudy the whole morning .
