With a demanding tone, Chief Abba said something that made Kenny dumbfounded. He was unsure whether or not he misheard what Chief Abba had uttered but everyone in the room was waiting for his translation. All he can do now is to try his best not to stutter.

"uumm He said… ah Chief Abba said that you must marry his daughter, Dr. Zhou."  

EVERYONE in the room looked at Weizhou in pure shock. Weizhou's mind went blank for a moment and when he finally realized it, his reaction said it all. He was stunned and confused at the same time.

“Hhuuuhhh?!!!!” He exclaimed.

6 HOURS AGO 

Weizhou, Risa, and Kenny were tasked to continue a health check-up among the families living near the isolation area. In just a month, the medical team were able to successfully trace and contain suspected villagers who made contact with the infected patients. With no new cases, Weizhou, along with those who are not on duty in the isolation area,  decided to conduct a health check-up on the remaining villagers. This is also an investigation to determine the causes and factors why they had an outbreak of this unknown disease. So right now, the trio went to every house to examine the villagers. Chen Wen was also eager to shoot for his vlog and documentary so he went along. The group isn't complete without under the watchful eyes of Fengsong, Andy and (obviously) Jingyu himself.  

“..we are currently on our way to our next house which is quite further than we thought. Thankfully, we have the cutest little tour guides here…” Chen Wen bent lower to focus his camera on the kids who've been following him since they’ve seen his phone. When the ‘vlogger/journalist" Chen Wen went along to film his documentary, the atmosphere would always be fun. His camera would always be the attention of the curious kids in the village.  

“Come on kiddos, say Hi to the camera.. hahahaha.” The innocent children were shouting gibberish the moment they saw themselves on the camera screen. The children’s laughter echoed as they walked to the forest.   

“aww they’re so cute..” Weizhou said, admiring the kids as they played with Chen Wen’s camera. Jingyu just scoffed, walking a little behind Weizhou. Both of them were at the back of the group, walking at their own pace.  

“Oh come on Sir Huang, you don’t think they’re cute???” Weizhou casually asked Jingyu. Silence was only the reply Jingyu gave. Weizhou sighed in response. 

“....you’re no fun at all....” Weizhou said with a grumpy face.

“Ok so tell me, What’s your definition of ‘cute’ then, Sir Huang?” Weizhou curiously asked. 

  

“You.” 

Jingyu mumbled. He wasn't sure why the heck he thought that the doctor in front of him was 'cute'. 

"Mmmh..??" Weizhou briefly paused as he could not clearly hear Jingyu's words as the children's laughter overlapped in the background. 

"I said, I will only answer sensible questions, Doc." Jingyu lied.. 

“I knew you’d say that…geez you’re so serious hahaha” Weizhou was still laughing. 

“Come on Sir Huang.. you gotta ease up a little,y’know. Just go with the flow. Don’t be too serious about everything… you’re gonna look like an old man if you’re always grumpy hahaha” Weizhou lightly punched Jingyu’s shoulder and left him to join the others. This sudden advice from Weizhou made Jingyu smirk. The young master can be unpredictable sometimes.  

As they made it into the next house, Weizhou and the 2 others immediately started their health check-up on the family. Chen Wen was also busy taking pictures and videos for his daily vlog and documentary while Jingyu and his team were outside of the house. Weizhou explained the current situation of the village to the family so that they would be more aware of what's happening. Proper information dissemination is one way to educate and spread awareness to the villagers about their situation.
