"Okay, next time, you can just stay over when you come."

"No need, I already have arrangements with a friend," Wang Yao replied, smiling.

After dinner, Wang Yao had originally wanted to stay to meet his cousin. However, after some consideration, he decided against it and went with Chen Ying back to the small courtyard to rest.

"Tomorrow, help me make an appointment with the Su family. I will be leaving Beijing shortly," Wang Yao said.

"Okay, I'll contact them now."

...

"If he leaves Beijing, then what about Xiaoxue's illness?" Su Xiaoxue's mother expressed her disapproval after hearing this news.

"That's right, she has only just gotten better. I heard her say a few words today too."

"He's a guest. We invited him over; we ought to respect his decision. Besides, it's not like he won't be coming back. Forcing him to stay might make him upset. What about Xiaoxue then?" Su Xiaoxue's father said slowly.

"Then, what if he doesn't return?"

"Then we'll go over to invite him again. It's not like we don't know where he lives. Tell Chen Ying to ask Doctor Wang when he's leaving, and where he's leaving to. We'll help him prepare his flight tickets. Also, check if he needs anything else; we'll do our best to meet his requests."

"Okay."

That night, after eating dinner with his second aunt, Wang Yao didn't go anywhere else but stayed in his small courtyard instead. He spent some time looking at the sky in Beijing, and it was only much later that he decided to turn in for the night.

"You're leaving so soon?" Chen Ying asked. She was a little surprised when Wang Yao told her his plans.

"Yeah. Would you accompany me to the airport?"

"Okay."

After breakfast, as they were preparing to leave, Guo Sirou came over.

"How's Xiaoxue's illness?"

"She's fine for now. I need to go back and continue doing some research into the medical treatments. Even if I stay here, I can't immediately come up with a cure as of now," Wang Yao replied honestly.

Guo Sirou was silent for a while.

"Do you have time today?"

"What is it? If it's treating me to a meal, it's not necessary," Wang Yao said. "Later on, I still plan to see Su Xiaoxue."

"I did want to treat you to a meal, to express my gratitude."

"Express your gratitude?" Wang Yao asked. He suddenly thought about his second aunt.

"I actually do have something I need your help with," Wang Yao said.

"What is it? Do tell."

"I have a relative in Beijing. Her work isn't going too well right now. Would you be able to help?"

"No problem!" Guo Sirou had thought it was some big problem. In Beijing, arranging work for somebody was an easy task for her.

"Tell me your relative's name."

"Okay."

Wang Yao took out a piece of paper and wrote down his aunt's contact details onto it for Guo Sirou.


Guo Sirou stared at it for a while before saying goodbye. Wang Yao then went over to Su Xiaoxue's house.
