283: Chapter 279 Uncle Ban Visits 283: Chapter 279 Uncle Ban Visits After saying half of his thoughts, Chen Hai was abruptly interrupted by Ye Qingqing.
“What nonsense are you spouting?”
Rolling her eyes at Chen Hai, she pushed and shoved him towards the bathroom door: “You’re all sweaty, hurry up and go take a shower.”
“In the kitchen, I specially made beer duck for you, it’s still stewing in the pot.”
“Once you’ve finished bathing, that dish will definitely be ready, just in time for dinner…”
After saying these words, Ye Qingqing turned and walked towards the kitchen.
She clearly disliked the words Chen Hai was saying, which is why she diverted the topic.
At this, Chen Hai could only respond with a bitter smile and walk into the bathroom.
He had always been well aware of how good his girlfriend, Ye Qingqing, was to him.
This minor conflict between him and Ye Qingqing certainly wasn’t because he had any complaints about his girlfriend.
Rather, he had his own ideals and pursuits, and it seemed they were now on somewhat different levels.
Perhaps, one loses some things while gaining others!
“Qingqing is a good girl, fortunate for me to have her, destined if I lose her.”
“For now, all I can do is take it one step at a time.”
“I hope that truly, we can walk hand-in-hand and grow old together!”
Sighing, Chen Hai expressed his feelings.
After he had bathed and changed clothes, he returned to the dining table.
In addition to the previous four or five dishes, indeed, there was now an added dish of beer duck.
Being a true Xiangnan local, he preferred his food quite flavorful.
The beer duck Ye Qingqing cooked was one of his favorite dishes.
Perhaps it was because she knew Chen Hai’s preferences well that Ye Qingqing chose to learn Xiang cuisine.
As for herself, being from Yuedong, she clearly preferred lighter flavors.
“Chen Hai, regarding the school, I’ve already handled the suspension procedures for you.
Are you planning to stay in Capital City and continue studying, or do you intend to do something else?”
“I’ll see how things go.
I think I’ll give up on school.
Perhaps, I’ll visit my hometown for a bit, check on my parents.
In the county, I lost a million in setting up a distillery, I might as well go check on it!”
“Hmm!
It’s good for you to visit Liuyuan County.
I’ve called your aunt and uncle several times, and every time, they talk about you a lot.”
…
They chatted casually while eating.
Both deliberately avoided discussing any unpleasant topics.
Chen Hai had just finished his bowl of rice when Ye Qingqing immediately got up and served him another bowl, handing it to him directly.
At a glance, the scene of the two eating together seemed joyful and harmonious.
In Chen Hai’s heart, aside from his own parents, Tao Cultivation definitely took priority.
But in Ye Qingqing’s eyes, she clearly placed Chen Hai first, all other things seemed to be set aside.
Feeling his girlfriend’s meticulous care, guilt began to subtly grow in Chen Hai’s heart.
Unfortunately, as guilty as he felt, the possibility of him giving up cultivation to live an ordinary life with his girlfriend was quite unlikely.
After finishing the meal, Ye Qingqing took the initiative to take over washing the dishes.
Chen Hai wanted to help, but unable to resist his girlfriend, he ended up only helping to tidy up the dishes.
“Ding ding ding…” He had just picked up the remote and turned on the TV while sitting on the couch.
The sound of a car horn came from outside the villa, reaching his ears.
When he stood up and walked out of the living room, appearing in the yard, two black-clad bodyguards were slowly pushing a wheelchair toward him.
“Young man, you’ve been gone for over half a year; I thought something had happened to you.”
“I’ve spent quite some effort trying to find you, but couldn’t get any news of you at all.”
“I learned from Ye Cheng that you finally showed up, and I came here immediately.”
“I came here full of hope; please don’t disappoint me too much…”
Sitting in the wheelchair, Uncle Ban looked at Chen Hai with slight dissatisfaction and teased him.
Chen Hai had already mastered the Little Five Thunder Skill, something Uncle Ban knew through his own channels.
After mastering the Little Five Thunder Skill, he tried to help him treat his legs, something Chen Hai had promised him long ago.
But when he rushed to West Mountain Villa, eager to have Chen Hai treat his legs, he suddenly found that Chen Hai had mysteriously disappeared without a trace.
Although he held only a honorary title in the Disability Federation and had no actual position, with his clout, searching the entire Yanhuang Country, there are really few who dare to casually fool him!
Knowing that Chen Hai had suddenly disappeared and could not find any trace of him aggrieved Uncle Ban greatly.
In his view, Chen Hai’s act of disappearing without even a message was no different from playing him.
As time went by, after half a year passed, his resentment had somewhat lessened.
He thought that Chen Hai must have been delayed by some important matters, which is why he had been out of sight.
Yet even so, upon seeing Chen Hai, he still couldn’t help wanting to complain a few words.
“Uncle Ban, I’m really sorry, I was indeed tied up with some matters recently.”
“The promise I made to you has always been on my mind, I’ve never forgotten it.”
“I was just thinking about finding some time to visit you to try and look at your legs, but before I could come over, you had already arrived!”
With an apologetic tone, Chen Hai quickly began to explain.
Taking the wheelchair from the two bodyguards, he pushed Uncle Ban slowly towards the living room.
The two black-clad bodyguards, also knowing their place, did not follow into the living room, but merely stayed in the yard.
“Chen Hai, who has come?”
“It’s Uncle Ban!”
…
Having just emerged from the kitchen where she was washing dishes, Ye Qingqing saw Uncle Ban and immediately her face lit up in excitement, and together with Chen Hai, they carefully helped him to sit on the sofa.
“Chen Hai, I’m entrusting my legs to you!”
“I don’t expect you to make my leg as good as new or normal.”
“If These legs could just feel something, it would make my special trip here worthwhile!”
Full of expectation, Uncle Ban looked at Chen Hai and spoke.
“All I can say is that I will do my best.”
“Whether my Little Five Thunder Skill is effective for your leg injury, we will have to try first to see what the situation is like!”
Chen Hai slightly nodded, responding with a calm smile.
Some things, the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
After mastering the Little Five Thunder Skill, Chen Hai had only used its destructive powers; he could confirm that his Little Five Thunder Skill, when released, could blast an ordinary person into pieces.
Regarding its effectiveness in treating illness, he had yet to try, so naturally, he was unclear about the outcomes!
In such a situation, he certainly couldn’t make any promises or commitments to Uncle Ban!
“Just do your best, just do your best…” Uncle Ban nodded repeatedly.
He was also aware that things related to treating his legs realistically couldn’t be forced; his earlier words were just said casually.
