Divine Doctor from the Start of the Eye Mutation

Chapter 1743 1743: A Well-Intentioned Gesture

Xue Mingtang said, "Mr. Ling, there are no outsiders here, just speak directly."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Originally, I did come with another purpose, but that purpose has been dismissed."

Xue Mingtang said, "You can speak freely, it doesn't matter."

Ling Zhenfei said, "It's true that Chen Qian and I are brothers, and it's also true that he asked me to come. But the purpose was to invite you to come out of seclusion and help me manage the company for further development.

After coming here and seeing how much you love your wife, with such a serene heart and clear commitment, I dismissed the idea."

After listening, Xue Mingtang was slightly silent, then said, "Yes, my wife is ill now, and my heart has grown tranquil, so I fear I must decline my brother's kind intentions."

At this moment, Mrs. Xue spoke from the bed beside them.

"I think you should go."

Mrs. Xue's words were astonishing, and both of them looked towards her.

Mrs. Xue said, "Over the years, your mental state has changed, and so has mine. Back then, you had grand ambition to build a career, but for my secluded heart you gave it all up to stay with me.

At that time, I felt that you loved me deeply, that you could give up everything for me. As the years passed, I finally understood how much you loved me, and I wondered how I could love you equally."

If, back then, I loved you more than you loved me, then I should have stayed with you in the business world rather than retreating to this mountain, wasting time and life.

Although now you say you've let go of fame and fortune, I know that deep in your heart, that desire is unchanging. Now, with such a good opportunity, why not come out of seclusion and join Mr. Ling in a great venture."

Despite her physical frailty, every word from Mrs. Xue was like a thousand-pound hammer striking the ground, resounding with conviction.

Xue Mingtang held her hand emotionally, "Is everything you said true?"

Mrs. Xue smiled and said, "Of course it's true. During my illness, I've thought a lot and finally understood many things.

I think I was too willful back then, always thinking that what I designed was the best in the world, but Mr. Ling's words just now made me realize my shortcomings.

While a free-spirited life is nice, one must accomplish something in this lifetime, especially since you're still so young. I can remain anonymous in seclusion, but you should be renowned."

Ling Zhenfei couldn't help but applaud Mrs. Xue's words. Despite her weak body now, her sudden enlightenment was unparalleled.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Rest assured, I will heal Mrs. Xue's illness and find a place in Qinghe Village to build a beautiful residence for her."

Though Mrs. Xue was still ill, talking seemed to have improved her condition a lot.

But Ling Zhenfei knew that her illness had long settled into her bones like a cold tide, exacerbated by years of mediocre treatments, making her situation severe.

During the meal, Ling Zhenfei described the current situation of his company to Xue Mingtang, introducing himself.

Xue Mingtang, Mrs. Xue, Xiao Xi, and others were all shocked, never imagining someone so young could be called the Divine Doctor and run such a large company.

Ling Zhenfei said, "You know I'm not an expert in management. I'm just a small doctor with limited vision, so while I managed to start the company, its scale remains limited.

Now, as the company stands at a crossroads for development, I'm hesitating and unsure what to do. Chen Qian is developing significant overseas projects, exceedingly busy, so I thought of finding someone knowledgeable."

From the conversation between Ling Zhenfei and Xue Mingtang, Xiao Xi picked up on something and asked, "Mr. Xue, are you and Mrs. Xue leaving here?"

Xue Mingtang said, "Yes, since this place caused my wife's illness, why stay?"

Perhaps sensing Xiao Xi's worry, Mrs. Xue said, "Don't worry, Xiao Xi, wherever I go, I'll take you with me."

Xiao Xi then cheered up, "Thank you, Mrs. Xue, thank you, Mr. Xue. I've been with Mrs. Xue for years; if you don't take me, I really don't know what I should do."

After dinner, Ling Zhenfei planned to treat Mrs. Xue overnight.

To see his wife regain her health early, Xue Mingtang naturally wouldn't object.

Ling Zhenfei's treatment was actually quite simple, using acupuncture plus medicine to expel the cold poison from her body, followed by traditional medicine for conditioning.

The most complicated part was expelling this cold poison, as it had penetrated deeply into the bones, and doing so wasn't easy.

Ling Zhenfei first used acupuncture to expel the surface cold poison, while the deep cold poison needed medicine to steam out slowly.

Since the medicine hadn't arrived yet, Ling Zhenfei had Mrs. Xue take some elixirs he'd previously made, using the Qi Replenishing Pill's effects to nurture her severely ill body.

Sure enough, the next morning, Mrs. Xue's condition improved slightly, at least having an appetite. She ate two bowls of millet porridge, making Xue Mingtang very happy.

In the morning, Xiaoshan also brought back herbs from the foot of the mountain, and after another session of acupuncture, Ling Zhenfei proceeded to brew the medicine.

"Mr. Xue, after a few days of treatment stabilizes Mrs. Xue's condition, we'll leave. In the meantime, start packing or arrange someone to pack, and hire a vehicle to transport essentials to Binyang."

Xue Mingtang said, "That's what I was thinking, but the journey from the mountain is far. Bringing these belongings up here was difficult, and taking them down won't be easy either."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Then leave behind what's unnecessary. Just take essentials, and begin a new life in Binyang."

Xue Mingtang said, "Mrs. Xue is quite nostalgic and surely has a lot she'd want to take. Honestly, after living here for so long, I do feel a bit reluctant to leave."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Where there's loss, there's gain. Leaving this place might lead to finding something better."

Xue Mingtang laughed, "Yes, perhaps this is our new beginning, but who would have thought this beautiful courtyard would be abandoned."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Indeed, but there's no choice. Life is full of helpless moments."

The next day, Xue Mingtang indeed found some villagers from the foot of the mountain to help with moving things.

When Xue Mingtang first came here, it caused quite a stir. Now leaving again also stirred the villagers.

The villagers were surprised; such a nice house built just a few years ago, why leave now?

Among those working with the Xue couple were Xiao Xi and Xiao Chuan, who were from the village. Xiao Xi was once an orphan, taken in by a distant aunt.

Mrs. Xue then adopted Xiao Xi, bringing him by her side.
