Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After Su Jinyue bought the books, she went to the place where she had alighted in the morning. She saw that Liu Daya and the rest were already waiting for her. “Sorry, I’m late.”
“We just arrived as well. Dr. Su, did you go to the bookstore to buy books?” Wang Xiaofang asked when she saw Su Jinyue holding books in her hand.
$u Jinyue got onto the cart. “Dr. Fang asked me to bring this for him.”
Wang Xiaofang’s eyes immediately lit up. “So it’s Dr. Fang’s books. He’s really eager to learn. Dr. Su, can I ask if Dr. Fang,
Su Jinyue raised her eyebrows and looked at Wang Xiaofang. “What?” Ever since Fang Zhihong came to the clinic, some of the young ladies in the village would go to the clinic every few days to seek treatment. Fang Zhihong had already complained to her a few times because those young ladies who came
to seek treatment were not sick at all. Wang Xiaofang was one of them.
‘Wang Xiaofang blushed. She cleared her throat and whispered into Su Jinyue’s ear, “Does he have a girlfriend?” Dr. Fang was gentle and refined, and he was the type she liked.
“Tm not sure about that. You should ask him yourself.” Su Jinyue suppressed her laughter and winked at Wang Xiaofang playfully.
Wang Xiaofang blushed even more and rolled her eyes at Su Jinyue shyly. “How can I ask such a question!” If she was thick skinned, she would have asked.
“Woah! You’re being shy! Do you want me to ask him for you?” Liu Daya teased with a smile. She was Wang Xiaofang’s good friend, so she knew her best. Besides, she also thought that Dr. Fang was not bad.
Wang Xiaofang glanced at Liu Daya shyly. “Go ahead if you dare. I’m not afraid.”
“Alright, Tl be the matchmaker for Dr. Fang when we get back. I’ll tell him that our Beauty Wang likes him.” Liu Daya made a face at Wang Xiaofang and laughed out loud.
“How dare you! See if I don’t tickle you.” With that said, Wang Xiaofang pounced on Liu Daya.
“No, stop tickling me. It’s so itchy, hahaha…”
‘The tinkling laughter echoed through the silent landscape. The birds in the trees on either side were infected by the laughter and chirped happily.
After dinner, Su Jinyue brewed a pot of tea and sat under the sycamore tree in the courtyard with Xu Tiansheng.
The night was exceptionally beautiful. The large and round moon hung in the sky, complementing the dazzling stars. The moonlight shone down, making the entire world seem as if it was plated with a thin layer of silver, filling it with a mysterious color.
“Have you prepared everything?” Xu Tiansheng put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Su Jinyue. His eyes were filled with reluctance. He knew that this day would come sooner or later. Even though he was mentally prepared, his heart still felt stifled and uncomfortable.
“More or less. Teacher, I…” Su Jinyue felt a lump in her throat when she thought about how she was going to be separated from her Teacher soon.
Xu Tiansheng reached out and patted Su Jinyue’s hand. “Don’t worry, Teacher will be fine.” He knew that Jinyue was definitely worried about him.
“Teacher, can I bring you over in the future?” Even though she knew her Teacher’s answer, Su Jinyue still had a trace of anticipation in her heart. In this life, she definitely won’t let her Teacher die so early.
“silly girl!” Xu Tiansheng looked at Su Jinyue lovingly. He didn’t want to go anywhere else in his life apart from here. He liked the tranquility of the mountains. Even if he only had simple meals, he was satisfied.
Su Jinyue sniffed and smiled. “In that case, I’ll call Teacher often in the future.”
“Call?” Xu Tiansheng was a little surprised. There were no other phones in the village except for at the village committee. The village committee was so far away from the clinic that it was not convenient for him to answer the call.
Su Jinyue’s lips curled up into a smile. She took out a form and handed it to Xu Tiansheng, “I went to apply for a phone installation today. It’ll be more convenient to contact her Teacher in the future.” Either way, she had already completed the procedures. Even if Teacher was angry, there was nothing he
could do.
Xu Tiansheng took the form, stood up, and walked into the house. Although the moonlight was bright tonight, it was impossible to see the words on the form clearly.
After looking at the form in his hand, Xu Tiansheng walked over to Su Jinyue with a dark expression. “Where did you get so much money to install a phone?” It costs five to six thousand yuan to install a phone now. The money he gave her was not even enough to cover a fraction of it.
“didn’t spend any money. The procedure of installing the phone was done by someone else, because I cured her illness,” Su Jinyue said as she rubbed her nose. She didn’t want to lie to her Teacher, but she couldn’t tell him the truth either. After all, things like storage pouches were too fantastical.
“Really?” Xu Tiansheng stared fixedly at Su Jinyue. He didn’t quite believe it, but it was true that Jinyue didn’t have that much money.
$u Jinyue nodded vigorously. “It’s true. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Xiaofang and the rest. When we were shopping at the market, someone asked me to treat her illness. In order to thank me for treating her illness, she insisted on giving me money. I didn’t take it, so she helped me with the
procedures to install the phone instead. She said it was so that it would be convenient for her to contact me.” She could only push the blame to Chen Cuilan since her Teacher couldn’t find her anyway.
“She processed the phone installation for you just like that?” Xu Tiansheng was surprised. How rich must the other party be?
“Yes!” Su Jinyue finally understood what it meant by “To hide one lie, countless more lies are needed.
“In that case, I’ll go with you tomorrow to get the return procedures done,” Xu Tiansheng decided. When Jinyue leaves tomorrow, she will have to pass through the county. It won’t take too long to go through the return procedures.
“Teacher, since it’s done, leave it be. T’ll only be able to contact you often if you have a phone. Besides, if I really return it, the other party will definitely give me money.” Su Jinyue sighed helplessly in her heart.
Xu Tiansheng pondered for a moment before nodding. “Alright then.” He wanted to keep in touch with Jinyue to find out if she was doing well outside.
She chatted with Xu Tiansheng until midnight. When Su Jinyue returned to her room, she was still not sleepy at all.
She sat in front of the window and propped her chin on her hand as she gazed at the night sky. She remembered that on the last night before she left Shangxin Village in her previous life, she had also sat there for an entire night like this. At that time, other than her reluctance to part with her Teacher,
she had also been hesitant and expectant about the future.
She smiled and shook her head. She was really silly back then.
At that moment, Su Jinyue saw a shadow flash past outside the window. She hurriedly looked in the direction of the shadow but saw nothing. She frowned. Could it be that I’m seeing things?
Worried, she used her X-ray vision to scan the area once more, but she still didn’t see anyone. Just as she was about to look away, he heard a faint sound coming from the roof. She quickly turned her gaze to the roof, and sure enough, she saw a black shadow standing on the roof. At that moment, that
black shadow was walking towards the room next door. The room next door was originally Song Yiren’s, so it seemed like this man in black was looking for her.
