Chapter 20: You have an illness in your interstices
The candlelight was in a small bowl shape, not high, and was slightly trembling in the hands of Wang Liang and Zhao Jun.
Su Nan's whip whizzed through the air, leaving only a faint shadow in its wake, and had already arrived at Wang Liang's left side.
The air currents in the sky were stirred up, sweeping across Wang Liang's arm like a steel brush, scraping his skin and making his hairs stand on end, with a layer of small millet-like bumps lining his arm.
"Ah!"
The flame in the candle lamp held by Wang Liang's left hand was swept away by the whip, making a faint sound, and after shaking twice, it went out. A wisp of blue smoke rose, and the air was filled with the smell of oil smoke.
Su Nan didn't stop, the whip swung again, brushing several times, and extinguished the three wax candle lamps in Wang Liang's right hand and Zhao Jun's hand.
"Ah! Don't!"
"My goodness!"
"Don't hit me!"
Two people closed their eyes and kept howling there.
The audience in the field had already applauded and cheered, whistling and shouting voices spread throughout the field. Wang Liang and Zhao Jun only reacted after that. They raised their hands to their eyes, saw no damage, and then shouted loudly, laughing and crying, their whole body trembling non-stop.
"Haha, haha! My hand is fine! It's all right!"
Just now, when Su Nan was performing, Yuan Lin had already stood up. Standing aside, the gaze towards Su Nan was filled with hatred. Hating Su Nan for making them lose face. But didn't consider that if they three were calm and composed, it would have increased their image.
Quickly walking two steps forward, Yuan Lin patted the heads of the two people and said, "What are you smiling about? Aren't you embarrassed enough? Hurry up and follow me down!"
Regardless of Su Nan and the host's shouting in the back, Yuan Lin and the three quickly ran off the stage. The scene of the party was already unbearable to stay, and the three did not return to their seats but ran out of the door directly.
After the program performance was over, Su Nan also refused to stay on stage and declined the host's request for him to introduce himself, turning around and walking off the stage.
"Su Nan, you're really something! Now Yuan Lin and the others are in a terrible state!" Chen Tong said with a happy smile. She had always been annoyed by Yuan Lin's entanglement, and now that she saw Yuan Lin being outsmarted, she was very pleased.
"You're like the nemesis of Yuan Lin, he's never had a good outcome after meeting you twice." Ning Yu also said with a smile. "Last time they got drunk and vomited all over themselves, it was already very embarrassing for them; this time, you made them lose face on stage again, I reckon they won't be able to hold their heads up in school for a long time. You should be careful, I heard Yuan Lin is a petty person who will definitely seek revenge when he's humiliated."
She nodded slightly in response to Ning Yu's concern, and Su Nan was very grateful. However, she didn't tell them that Yuan Lin's revenge had already been carried out.
At this time, the girls sitting around their seats shot out countless starlights from their eyes, almost burying Su Nan, fortunately, there were still Chen Tong and Ning Yu by his side, who helped him resist. After Chen Tong and Ning Yu finished their performances, the three of them went home directly and didn't stay here any longer.
…………
The next day, while still at work, Su Nan received a call from Wang Zong, saying that the old lady and her son were in good health and wanted to invite Su Nan to dinner together to thank him in person. Su Nan originally wanted to decline, but Wang Zong mentioned the old lady and her son would also be going, so after thinking for a moment, Su Nan agreed.
After work, Su Nan took a taxi directly to the Crystal Palace Hotel, where Wang had already booked a room.
These days, due to work-related matters, Su Nan has also met with Wang Zong several times and can be considered familiar. Adding this dinner party where the entire Wang family is present, it can be said that there are no outsiders. When Su Nan arrived at the hotel, everyone was already there, waiting only for him.
"Xiao Su, come over here and sit down." The old lady stood up and beckoned to Su Nan who was standing at the door. She was not only grateful that he had saved her, but also grateful that he had saved her grandson. If she had just fainted, even if she waited a little longer, the ambulance would have arrived and she could have been revived. But her grandson's situation was different, if Su Nan hadn't been there at the time, by the time the ambulance arrived, he would definitely have become a cold corpse. If that were the case, the old lady wouldn't have had the heart to go on living either. Not to mention the heartache, just the guilt alone would have taken her life.
Su Nan didn't pretend, and sat down beside the old lady. Wang's family education was good, Su Nan walked over and hadn't even sat down yet, when Mao Mao sweetly smiled at him and called out "Uncle is well".
"Good boy." Su Nan patted Mao Mao's little head, took out a toy from the bag and handed it over, "Mao Mao, this is a gift from your uncle, wishing you a speedy recovery."
Mao Mao looked at his mother standing beside him, waiting for her instructions.
"Here you go, thank Uncle." Mom said to Mao Mao on the side, then turned her head and said to Su Nan, "You just come visit, no need to buy toys for the kids. Thank you, little Su."
Su Nan smiled slightly and didn't say much. A toy may not be expensive, but it can make the Wang family feel valued, and of course, have a better impression of Su Nan.
Wang, as the general manager of Shunxing Company, usually has a lot of social engagements and is well-trained in drinking. Today, he kept urging Su Nan to drink wine to show his gratitude.
After a few rounds, Wang Zong was drunk and emotional, and he couldn't help but express his gratitude to Su Nan, "Little Su, I will never forget the help you gave me, Wang Tianhe. Since childhood, my family conditions were not good, my father passed away early, it was my mother who raised me with hardship and bitterness. This year, I finally brought her from our hometown to Pucheng, planning to let her enjoy life. But didn't expect to encounter that kind of thing, if you weren't there at the time, my mother and child might have..."
In the end, Wang Tianhe's throat was choked with sobs and he couldn't speak anymore.
"Director Wang doesn't have to go to such lengths,"
Since I've encountered it and have medical skills, of course, I'll lend a hand. Actually, no matter who it is, when encountering such things, as long as they have the ability to help, they will offer assistance." Su Nan consoled him with one sentence, not wanting Wang Tianhe to say more about these matters, "Wang, this matter has passed, don't mention it again in the future."
"Alright!" Wang Tianhe sighed, "Little Su, I consider you a friend from now on, and we won't mention these things again. By the way, from now on, don't call me 'Wang Boss' anymore, if you respect me, just call me 'Wang Ge'."
"Alright." Su Nan was a straightforward person and wouldn't dwell on these small matters, so he simply agreed with a "Brother Wang, come on, let's keep drinking."
Wang Tianhe's wife, Yu Xiaohui, also picked up her cup and said, "Little Su, if there's anything to be thanked for, your brother Wang has already said it, so I won't repeat it. I heard from Tianhe that you're struggling alone in Pucheng, so from now on, we'll be your family, your brothers and sisters. If there's anything, just speak up and tell Sister Yu, and I guarantee you won't be wronged."
Wang Tianhe took the opportunity to get up and go to the bathroom. When he came back, there was one more person behind him. In his thirties, similar in age to Wang Tianhe, tall and thin, with spirited eyes, he smiled as he approached the old lady and greeted her.
"This is my friend, Liu Shaozhou, the boss of Tian Shi Group." Wang Tianhe introduced on the side, "Boss Liu heard that the old lady was having dinner here and insisted on coming over to say hello."
After understanding Liu Shaozhou's intention, the old lady was polite to him for a few words. Wang Tianhe invited him to sit down and introduced him to everyone present.
"Hello, Director Liu." Su Nan extended his hand and shook hands with Liu Shaozhou, but slightly furrowed his brow, as if he had something to say, hesitated for a moment, and finally held back.
Because Liu Shaozhou was also a guest, Su Nan specially gave him a seat. As a result, he sat down beside Yu Xiaohui. His frowning movement happened to be seen by Yu Xiaohui, who asked him a strange question.
"What's wrong, Xiao Su?"
"This..." Su Nan was still hesitant, after some consideration, he asked Yu Xiao Hui, "I wonder if Sister Yu knows the article 'Bian Que Meets Cai Huan Gong' in 'Han Feizi'?"
Xiao Hui nodded slightly, "I know there's this article, I only remember the general meaning, but I forgot the specific content."
"At the beginning, there was a sentence: Bian Que met Cai Huan Gong and stood with him for a while. Bian Que said: 'You have an illness in your skin, if you don't treat it, it will become more serious.' Su Nan continued to ponder how to phrase his words properly, 'Now Liu is in this situation, he has a minor physical condition that he doesn't notice himself, and even if he goes for a medical examination, it won't be detected. However, if he doesn't receive early treatment, the consequences will be severe.'"
"Really? Xiao Su, don't talk nonsense. It's impolite to casually say someone is sick." Yu Xiaohui warned unbelievably.
Although she knew that Sunan was skilled in medicine, she had never thought about how high his medical skills were. As for saving the old lady and Mao Mao, it was just first aid, which could be mastered with a little training, and couldn't represent his level. Now hearing him talk so mysteriously, it's really hard to believe.
He smiled faintly and didn't say anything more. He wasn't a doctor, and Liu Shaozhou wasn't his patient, although out of habit he had diagnosed him from the moment he walked in the door, but that didn't mean he had to treat him.
Let's not mention this topic again, Yu Xiaohui didn't ask much either. Sunan is their family's benefactor, and it wouldn't be good to suspect him too much. But such a thing is also hard for oneself to believe, if they talked more and started arguing, it would be even worse.
Liu Shaozhou, who was sitting next to him, listened to Wang Tianhe's introduction of Su Nan and praised him highly. Many people think that doctors are so powerful, but in front of ordinary people, they may still be like this; truly in the presence of the nobility, those with good manners will still be polite to doctors, while those who are poorly educated will only treat doctors as high-ranking subordinates. In fact, it's not their fault, because in their eyes, the highest equivalent is just a hospital, and doctors are just subordinate to the hospital.
Of course, these recognitions are useless for those doctors who really have level and bone. But the real doctor is not many, at least in Liu Shaozhou's view, Su Nan is still not a doctor at this age, and being able to praise him is a great honor.
From Liu Shaozhou's words, I can hear the politeness and distance, Su Nan would not take the initiative to talk about his physical condition without a reason.
Who is he? The grandson of the great doctor Su Zonghe! With a strong family background, although young in age, he can also bear the title of national hand. Having nothing to do, following behind someone's butt, begging them to let him treat illnesses, does he still want this national hand's dignity?
