A miraculous doctor descended from the heavens.
Chapter 372 Three Taels of Medical Fee
When school was over, Youcai got up and wanted to leave.
Today, she was probably the second most depressed person in the class, after Yan Xinyue.
So she had absolutely no intention of tutoring Gu Feng right now.
But as he stood up and was about to take a step, he hesitated. After thinking for a moment, he turned back to Gu Feng.
Youcai's mood swings were as quick as turning the pages of a book, but Gu Feng was used to it and didn't even bother to give her a proper expression, just watching her indifferently.
"Gu Fengjun, I have to go see my uncle in a little while, so I won't be able to tutor you at noon." Youcai said this in a soft tone, which sounded a bit like crocodile tears.
Gu Feng nodded. If they don't want to fix it, they don't have to; he might not have time anyway.
Zhong Yufen and He Tiansheng, who had been missing all morning, were already waiting outside the classroom.
"I'll be going now."
Without waiting for his reply, Youcai fled the classroom as if she were running away.
From beginning to end, he didn't dare to look at He Qiaoqing, who looked harmless but could actually kill someone at any moment, next to Gu Feng.
"Brother, does she usually tutor you?" He Qiaoqing asked.
Knowing that her parents were already waiting outside, she wasn't in a hurry and just sat there quietly.
"Hmm," Gu Feng responded, pointing to the Latin and English textbooks.
"I don't know this either." He Qiaoqing pointed to the Latin text, then casually flipped through the English text. "This is easy, I can teach you."
Gu Feng smiled wryly. This bird language was difficult to learn at all; it was a jumbled mess that was both headache-inducing and irritating. She, on the other hand, spoke it so easily. But there was no time to study it now. He stood up: "Let's go first. Your parents are waiting outside."
"Oh." He Qiaoqing quickly packed her things.
As soon as they left the classroom, Mr. and Mrs. He Tiansheng came to greet them.
"Gu Feng, Uncle He is treating you to dinner today, how about it?" He Tiansheng asked with a smile.
Offering unsolicited favors is either a sign of malice or theft.
The couple seemed honest, kind, and harmless, but Gu Feng always found himself being led by the nose by them without even realizing it.
There's no hatred involved, but there's no closeness either.
Anyway, the feeling was always lukewarm, nothing compared to Ding Lisheng's enthusiasm.
But right now, He Qiaoqing was sticking to him like a little shadow, and he had no choice but to deal with them, which annoyed him to no end. So he shook his head: "It's rare that I don't have tutoring at noon, I want to go home for lunch."
"Okay, I'd like to try Sister Rou's cooking too," He Qiaoqing immediately replied.
This girl is really strange. She doesn't have a nice face to anyone except Gu Feng, but she can get along well with Shi Yurou. I don't know why.
He Tiansheng was embarrassed and felt a little awkward.
Zhong Yufen found it somewhat amusing. Her own daughter was difficult to deal with, but this young man was no exception.
"Alright, we'll take you back then." He Tiansheng had no choice but to back down.
Gu Feng did not refuse.
I arrived this morning in Zhong Yufen's car. If I don't get someone to take me home now, I'll have to take a taxi or squeeze onto the bus.
If someone delivers it, that would be best.
On the way, He Tiansheng, who was sitting in the passenger seat, handed over a rather large kraft paper envelope.
Gu Feng took it with a puzzled look, and squeezed it through the paper; it looked like a notebook inside.
It was bigger than a bankbook but smaller than a textbook. He was too lazy to open it and couldn't guess what it was.
"This is just a small token of Uncle He's appreciation," He Tiansheng said casually. Seeing that Gu Feng was about to ask a question, he changed the subject, "Gu Feng, actually, we've come today to say goodbye to you."
"Saying goodbye?" Gu Feng frowned.
"Yes." Zhong Yufen, who was driving, nodded. "Your Uncle He and I are both busy with work. Because of Xiao Qing's matter, it has been delayed for too long. The higher-ups have been urging us several times, not to mention your Uncle He's situation in the military. If it weren't for the old man standing up for him, he would probably have been punished long ago."
"So from today onwards, Xiao Qing is entirely entrusted to you." He Tiansheng turned his head, his tone as solemn as if he were entrusting something of great importance.
Gu Feng remained silent. He had known this day would come, but he hadn't expected it to come so soon.
"Gu Feng, although we're not in Shenzhen, the old man is still here. If you have an emergency and can't contact us, just go directly to him," He Tiansheng added.
"Looking for that old man?" Gu Feng felt a chill run down his spine when he thought of Old Man He's explosive temper. "Uncle He, please spare me."
Seeing Gu Feng's reaction, He Tiansheng also remembered his old man's bad temper and felt a little embarrassed. After a moment of thought, he said, "Then you can find Major Fan if you need anything."
"Major Fan?" Gu Feng was completely confused. "Who is that?"
"It's that female comrade who's in charge of Xiao Qing's safety and protection," He Tiansheng reminded her.
Gu Feng then remembered that there was indeed a woman among the seven or eight guards.
She's quite pleasing to the eye, but she always has a cold face, as if the whole world owes her money.
We've met a few times, but never exchanged a single word.
"Her name is Fan Yun. She's a former special forces soldier, with extensive experience in counter-surveillance, counter-ambush, counter-kidnapping, and counter-hijacking. She used to be in charge of the old man's safety. This time, since Xiao Qing is staying out, the old man was worried and specially sent her with a team," He Tiansheng explained.
"Oh... dizzy, I'll remember that." Gu Feng replied expressionlessly. He didn't know if he was dizzy or not, but he was indeed feeling a bit sleepy right now.
"Xiao Qing, from now on, you have to be obedient to Gu Feng and not cause trouble, understand?" Zhong Yufen turned around and instructed. But when she saw her daughter's blank and almost numb expression, her eyes reddened.
He Qiaoqing and her parents were bound by blood and had a very deep bond.
But that was before. Now, she's forgotten it all.
He Tiansheng and Zhong Yufen truly cared for her; she could feel it. She also vaguely sensed that these two might really be her parents.
She also tried hard to remember them.
But everything from before has been wiped clean, as if erased by an eraser, leaving not a trace.
Upon arriving at Bolan Street, Gu Feng and He Qiaoqing got off the bus.
"Xiao Qing, take good care of yourself." Zhong Yufen also came down, wanting to hug her daughter.
Just as his hand was about to touch He Qiaoqing's shoulder, she instinctively dodged away.
Zhong Yufen's hand froze in mid-air, and the tears she had been holding back finally fell down.
He Tiansheng quickly got out of the car and pulled his wife into his arms: "Yufen, don't do this, Xiaoqing is now..."
"I know."
Zhong Yufen took a deep breath, trying to stop her tears, but she couldn't hold back and buried her face in her husband's shoulder, sobbing softly.
Gu Feng stood aside, unsure whether to offer advice or not.
Turning to look at He Qiaoqing, he saw that she, too, was staring blankly at the scene, just like him.
He Tiansheng persuaded his wife for a while before turning around, forcing a smile at them, waving, getting into the car, and leaving.
The car drove away until even its taillights were out of sight.
Gu Feng and He Qiaoqing both sighed in unison.
"Huh? It's one thing for me to sigh, but why are you sighing?" Gu Feng asked curiously.
"Although I don't remember them, I'm quite envious of how loving they are at their age. If they really were my parents, that wouldn't be bad."
Upon hearing these thoughtless words, Gu Feng raised his hand and gave her a light tap on the bottom: "What do you mean by 'if'? They are!"
He Qiaoqing trembled when she was slapped, her face flushed red, and she muttered softly, "Brother, I didn't want to either. But I really can't remember."
"Sigh—" Gu Feng shook his head and sighed, not knowing what to say.
"Brother, when a tree shakes, its leaves fall; when a person shakes, their fortunes decline. Sigh less and shake your head more; think about happy things instead," He Qiaoqing comforted him.
Gu Feng was both amused and exasperated: "You little ingrate, let's go home!"
"Okay, let's go home!" He Qiaoqing playfully stuck out her tongue, took his hand, and walked forward with light steps.
From afar, the two could see that the alley entrance was piled with red bricks, cement, and sand, completely blocking the road.
Several bricklayers were working hard, their brows covered in sweat.
The courtyard wall of the house in front has been half demolished.
Gu Feng frowned.
This road is already narrow; even cars can't get through.
Now, because of their actions, even people can't get through.
"What the hell?"
Gu Feng had long harbored resentment towards the family in front of him.
If they hadn't built up the wall and blocked the road, why would their cars have to be parked on the roadside every day, exposed to the wind and sun? They could have driven into the yard long ago.
Now, not only are cars not allowed in, but people can't even get through.
Gu Feng hadn't wanted to cause trouble, but now he was genuinely getting angry.
He strode toward the door of that house.
When he arrived at the door, he paused for a moment.
Several trucks were parked at the entrance, with "Tianli Moving Company" written on them. Workers were loading furniture onto the trucks.
The homeowner stood beside the car, repeatedly shouting, "Be careful, don't touch it!"
People come and go in this alley. Although Gu Feng doesn't know their names, their faces are familiar.
When the other person saw Gu Feng coming over, he greeted him with a smile.
Seeing their smiling faces, Gu Feng didn't want to immediately lash out, so he asked, "Are you... moving?"
"Yes, we're moving to the Siliang area," the homeowner said with a smile.
"Why did you move when you were living there so well?" Gu Feng wondered.
"The house has been sold, can I not move?" the homeowner replied.
"Then what happened to this wall?" Gu Feng pointed to the courtyard wall that was half demolished.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, the new landlord asked me to do this. I don't know exactly what it's for," the homeowner said apologetically.
"New landlord? What's his name? Where is he?" Gu Feng remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was furious.
This happened right after they arrived; it seems this new neighbor isn't exactly a nice guy.
If we don't teach him a lesson, he won't know that even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake.
"I think his name is Gu Feng. I don't know where he is, but you'll probably see him when he moves in this afternoon," the homeowner said.
"Gu Feng?" Gu Feng was stunned. After a long while, he asked blankly, "You didn't remember the name wrong?"
"No, that's the name on the transfer papers." Seeing his strange expression, the homeowner asked, "What, you know him?"
"We know each other." Gu Feng nodded woodenly. "We're very familiar with each other."
"That's great! Since we're acquaintances, it'll be easier to talk to each other in the future." The homeowner smiled, and loaded the last piece of furniture into the car. "I have to go now. I live in Siliang now. Come visit sometime."
"Oh, okay," Gu Feng replied perfunctorily.
After several trucks drove away, Gu Feng finally had the courage to open the brown paper bag in his hand.
Inside was a red booklet, which was clearly a property ownership certificate!
He understood immediately.
He Tiansheng must have felt bad because he hadn't accepted the three hundred taels of gold, so he changed his approach and forced this token of his goodwill into his hands.
