I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 879: Chapter 878: The Lost Woman

Luo Yirui’s complexion had recovered its redness, so Li Xuejun did not notice anything unusual. However, Shi Guang was quite surprised. This kid’s ability to recover is too good, considering he had seen firsthand how severely he had expended his spirit, nearly fainting from exhaustion.

This all happened within less than an hour, and now he’s fine?

That aunt is a marvel, and her son is just as extraordinary?!

Shi Guang grew up in a big family, so he has quite an insightful view. Upon arriving at the Red Painted Courtyard, he immediately knew that the people living here must be some bigwigs from the Military Department!

Thinking about the aunt’s skills, it’s not surprising that she knows such bigwigs. Shi Guang dared not casually glance around and followed Li Xuejun and Luo Yirui inside.

When Luo Yirui entered, Zhou Quan had already left. They were all protecting in secret, and Luo Yirui himself did not know, nor did the boss intend to let him know.

However, Zhou Quan left taking those five people with him, the boss and the old chief had already informed each other.

Wu Yuekai’s face beamed with joy, seeing Luo Yirui made his mouth stretch to his ears, prompting Li Xuejun to roll his eyes secretly. He couldn’t admire how the old chief displayed such a demeanor in front of three little kids.

Unbeknownst to him, Li Xuejun was not much different upon seeing these three kids, only he couldn’t see himself.

”Grandpa!” Luo Yirui called out forcefully.

”Hey!” Wu Yuekai responded with a laugh, waving his hand for Luo Yirui to come over, hugged him, and patted his head.

After hearing Zhou Quan’s complete narrative, Wu Yuekai felt immensely gratified, not expecting Little Rui to be so clever and resourceful when encountering issues. More importantly, he remained calm, not panicking when things went awry, and under such circumstances, his judgments and decisions were spot-on, truly unexpected!

It’s foreseeable that his future achievements will certainly surpass those of his parents!

Since Luo Xudong took over the matter, Wu Yuekai didn’t plan to involve himself too much, but monitoring is definitely necessary. He would inquire about progress; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to relax with people continuously watching over Little Rui and the two little precious ones.

”Little Rui, later I’ll have Uncle Li take you back and bring your two sisters to stay at Grandpa’s for a while. Grandpa misses you when you’re not here,” Wu Yuekai said with a smile.

He planned to take care of the three children during the time both Luo Xudong and Beisitian were away, otherwise, he wouldn’t rest assured.

Shi Guang noticed that only after an elder and a child had talked for quite a while did they pay attention to him, instantly feeling his presence was low...

Shi Guang noticed Wu Yuekai’s eyes were exceptionally fond when facing Luo Yirui, but when facing him, they became indifferent. This indicated that the old chief was not as easygoing as he seemed, so he dared not casually assert his presence.

After a round of self-introduction, under Wu Yuekai’s gaze, he roughly explained the events.

Regarding Shi Guang’s performance in this matter, Wu Yuekai heard from Zhou Quan. Though his ability was average, he did not abandon Luo Yirui in moments of crisis, and despite the suspicion of being used, Shi Guang’s concern for Luo Yirui was genuine.

As long as someone genuinely cares about Luo Yirui, Wu Yuekai will be very amiable, this probably epitomizes loving what is loved dearly.

Both Luo Xudong and Beisitian were already aware of this incident, Beisitian did not return to Beijing, departing from Ningjin County to other places. It seems she found the clues of those people with Luo Xudong’s cooperation.

...

In a secluded village, a young man carefully walked at the village entrance, testing each step before taking it. He kept his head high without looking down, and a seemingly white film covered his eyes, subtly flowing as he blinked.

The village roads were uneven, becoming muddy after rain, and when a donkey cart passed, the ruts it left became deeper and remained even after drying.

There were quite a few such ruts on the village roads, and even without eye issues, walking required watching one’s step, let alone for someone with visual problems. So the young man tripped twice within twenty meters.

”Jianbin!”

From the other side came a youth of similar age, who hurried over to help Shi Jianbin up, assisting him towards the village.

This village was quite small, with only about a hundred households, and these were not ordinary families. Most were children aged three to twelve, though accompanied by adults, they shared no blood relation.

”Didn’t I tell you to call me when going out? Why did you come out alone!” Shi Jianhua frowned.

The Shi Family was in a difficult spot, being virtually confined in this secluded mountain village, with only those people’s presence, and the rest being the children sharing their lack of freedom.

”Sorry, I got lost in the mountains. Is there a place to stay here?”

As the two walked back, a sweet and melodious voice suddenly sounded behind them.

Hearing the voice, Shi Jianhua turned around in astonishment to see a remarkably attractive woman standing there, wearing neat long trousers revealing her straight legs, a sun-protective coat on top, her hair in a ponytail, carrying a large backpack.

Although the village was remote, it wasn’t entirely isolated from the world. People do come here, but they typically face one of two outcomes: Either they encounter something and leave quickly, never returning, or their spirit impresses and they are kept permanently.

But even if kept permanently, they soon disappear, basically leaving only the Shi Family as the constant presence.

And the Shi Family survives by guarding a secret.

Shi Jianhua frowned at the girl; she seemed to belong to the category of solo travelers. Though solo trekking isn’t unheard of, staying in this village isn’t a wise choice. He was about to warn her when suddenly two women walked up beside him.

The two women cheerfully approached the girl, saying, ”If you need a place to stay, you can come with us; it’s the best farmhouse in the village, with all meals and lodging included.”

”How much for a night?” the girl asked while following the two women.

Shi Jianhua watched their backs heavily, realizing yet another had fallen into a trap, yet they dared not casually alert anyone, looking at the condition of Jianbin’s eyes made that obvious.

”I feel like I’ve heard this voice somewhere before,” Shi Jianbin suddenly said, finding the voice familiar but unable to recall where he’d heard it.

As the two were speaking, the girl suddenly turned back, her gaze landing on Shi Jianbin for a moment before she turned away to continue walking.
