Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xia Hai and Zhang Cheng had spent the past few days collaborating closely, forging a strong brotherly bond. Presently, Xia Hai arrived, clutching a box of ripe fruits in his hands.

Come, Wanwan, help yourself to some fruit. The weathers scorching.

Arrayed on the fruits were toothpicks, a delicate touch that highlighted how much Xia Hai had evolved.

In bygone days, hed have consumed fruit in a much less refined manner, forsaking the art of slicing and dicing for immediate indulgence. The metamorphosis was clearly thanks to the influence of Zhang Cheng. Xia Wan accepted his gesture with a smile. Thanks, Dad.

In this juncture, a young man dashed in, making a beeline for Zhang Cheng.

Dad, youre still here chatting? Moms suddenly in agony. The painkillers arent working. We need to hurry to the hospital.

Coincidentally unoccupied, Xia Wan promptly interjected, Ill accompany you.

Ive studied medicine previously.

Zhang Chuan, in turn, scrutinized Xia Wan with a quizzical expression. You appear roughly my age. Youre knowledgeable in medicine? Youre likely just in high school.

With a nod, Xia Wan responded, Yes, Im in my third year of high school. Were the same grade, though not in the same cla.s.s.

Xia Wan held residual memories of Zhang Chuan. In her previous life, Zhang

Chuans academic records hadnt been exceptional, but hed excelled in sports. During that era, hed journeyed to the city for a compet.i.tion, earning a top-three distinction. Coupled with his athletic achievements, hed secured a place in a prestigious university.

Zhang Chuans brow creased, skepticism evident in his eyes.

Zhang Chuan was strikingly handsome, perhaps the most appealing lad in their cla.s.s.

Unlike Zhou Chens soft countenance, Zhang Chuan radiated a rebellious aura.

Many girls had set their sights on him but were met with his resolute rebuffs. His popularity lagged behind Zhou Chens due to his acerbic tongue.

In her past life, Xia Wan had been incapable of deciphering individuals true natures, perceiving those like Zhang Chuan as challenging a.s.sociates. Yet, lifes encounters had equipped her with the ability to discern essence beneath facades.

For instance, Zhang Chuans candor was a testament to his disdain for artifice.

Initially, such personalities might seem challenging, but they invariably became the bedrock of trust.

Zhang Chuan cast a disgruntled glance at Xia Wan. I cant fathom what youve said to my dad thats earned you such staunch belief. Let me make this clear: dont administer my moms treatment blindly.

Xia Wans grandfather is a village doctor. Ive gleaned quite a bit about her these past days, including her commendable deeds. Shes saved numerous lives.

Zhang Chuan compressed his lips. Xia Hai is Xia Wans father. Naturally, hed sing her praises. You wouldnt disparage your own child, would you?

Zhang Cheng interjected, Thats not true. Ive informed everyone how troublesome and unruly you are.

Zhang Chuan was left speechless. That was undoubtedly his flesh and blood speaking.

Xia Wan didnt expend energy clarifying to Zhang Chuan. She remained unconcerned about his belief in her capabilities. Instead of weaving more words, she chose to exhibit her competence through action.

Subsequently, they reached Zhang Chengs residence.

Zhang Chuans mother, Liu Xue, lay on the bed, contorted with pain. Pallor tinted her complexion, sweat forming on her brow.

Witnessing his spouses anguish, Zhang Cheng hastened to her side. Sweetheart, where does it hurt? Dont fret; Ill whisk you to the hospital.

Liu Xues retort was direct. Hospital? Im merely grappling with a stomachache. Your burgeoning wealth doesnt confer a carte blanche to spend recklessly. Some rest will suffice.

A disparaging look at Zhang Chuan punctuated her statement. Did you fetch your father? I explicitly cautioned you about this recurring issue.

Zhang Chengs worry seeped through, Darling, arent we working hard to reap rewards? Your ailment necessitates care. Whats the purpose of acc.u.mulating money if we cant use it when needed?

Should your condition deteriorate, whatd become of us?

Positioned beside, Xia Wan comprehended the situation. Zhang Chuans delay in seeking medical attention was clarified. His initial recourse was to locate

Zhang Cheng..
