Chapter 918: Chapter 910: High Tolerance

The classmates were all frightened by his expression, so no student ever dared to cause trouble for him. The worst thing they did was secretly call him a freak behind his back, but when they saw him, they avoided him from afar. This continued until university. After starting university, Liu Sisi and Liu Rui were in different universities, but Liu Sisi wasn’t too worried about Liu Rui’s personality; he had gotten along peacefully for so many years.

In university, no one would bother him anymore, since universities are full of all kinds of people, so they are more tolerant.

Liu Rui would only speak a few words in front of his grandfather, perhaps to put his grandfather’s mind at ease.

There was a time when Liu Rui wouldn’t say anything to anyone, not even when asked, which scared Hu Jingtang into thinking his grandson had become mute, so he dragged him to the hospital. The examinations showed Liu Rui had no physical problems, but Hu Jingtang didn’t believe it and went to several hospitals before he accepted what the doctors said.

To avoid similar situations in the future, Liu Rui would answer properly whenever his grandfather asked him something because the repeated hospital checks were too annoying. He felt like a monster in a crowd, but he just didn’t want to talk; he suddenly felt that speaking was exhausting.

After eating, Liu Sisi left for school, and Tang Rong also said she had things to do at the office in the afternoon, so she left early too. Only Xiao Yifei and Hu Jingtang remained at home.

"Actually, what I said at the dining table today is what I’ve been worrying about lately. I know very well what condition my health is in now; it’s really getting worse by the day. I can feel its changes clearly every day, but you see, there are still so many things I haven’t done."

"Sisi and Liu Rui haven’t graduated from university. I used to think my health could last until they got married and settled down. Though I know many young people nowadays don’t like getting married, my greatest wish now is to see them wed and settled, with someone to take care of them."

"These two kids have been with me since childhood. It’s not easy for them. Materially, I have given them what I think is best, but spiritually, I can’t provide what they’ve lacked, like the parental love in a normal family. My love for them can’t replace the love from their own parents," said Hu Jingtang.

"I now most hope to live another twenty years. After twenty years, they will both be around forty, mature adults. By then, I won’t have much to worry about. Now, I really can’t let go!" Hu Jingtang seemed like a loving father now.

Xiao Yifei suddenly remembered his own grandfather. Wasn’t he thinking the same? He must have been infinitely concerned and worried, fearing Xiao Yifei wouldn’t fare well after he left. His feelings back then must have been the same as Hu Jingtang’s now.

Upon hearing Hu Jingtang’s words, Xiao Yifei couldn’t find any comforting words, and before death, any language seems powerless. He couldn’t say things like, "You see, your health is so good now, you can surely live another twenty years." Such words are pointless, whether spoken or not. So, Xiao Yifei quietly sat beside Hu Jingtang.

After a while, Xiao Yifei suddenly thought of something and said to Hu Jingtang, "Mr. Hu, have you heard about the Biwei Silver Needle? Finding this thing could allow me to save more people."

"I remember you mentioned it once before, but didn’t clearly tell me what it was. Biwei Silver Needle, I really haven’t heard of it. So how do you plan to find it?" Hu Jingtang asked.

"I don’t have any clues right now; my grandfather didn’t tell me what to do. The only thing he left me was our family’s ancestral medical book, but I’ve searched through it without finding any words related to Biwei Silver Needle. This matter has been dragging on for so long without any progress, so I wanted to ask for your opinion," Xiao Yifei earnestly said.

"I’ve never heard of it either, but I can ask around among my friends; maybe one of them knows something," Hu Jingtang replied.

"Actually, I’m not in a hurry to find the Biwei Silver Needle anymore. I think it probably doesn’t exist and was just something the ancestors made up to trick future generations. How could there really be such a thing? A needle that could save lives would become a divine object. I’m a bit mystified, though in this world anything is possible, even divine objects wouldn’t surprise me. But I feel finding it would be extremely unlikely," Xiao Yifei admitted.

"Don’t lose heart; you haven’t even started searching yet. Once you get some clues, you won’t think this way anymore. Since your grandfather said it exists, such a thing must be real, right? Your grandfather wouldn’t deceive you," Hu Jingtang comforted.

"You’re right; my grandfather would have no reason to deceive me unless his grandfather deceived him. I better hurry and find the Biwei Silver Needle! But now I’m working at the hospital, and all my time is dedicated there, leaving no free time for this," Xiao Yifei said, somewhat torn.

"Life often presents many choices, and these paths are usually very tempting. You don’t know which to choose because all seem so beautiful. You choose one, but worry the scenery on the other path might be more beautiful."

"At such times, you need to be clear about what you want your life to be like, what is most important in your heart. Is it the prospects of a decent, high-paying career, or is family more important?"

"Of course family is most important. I grew up and achieved today’s successes thanks to my grandfather, so my grandfather is most important to me," Xiao Yifei said.

"I know what you’re afraid of. You’re afraid of quitting your current job to search for the Biwei Silver Needle, and what if you don’t find it in the end? You fear it all might be a lie and you’ll end up with nothing, right?" Hu Jingtang asked.

"That’s indeed my concern, but after hearing you say that, I don’t have anything to hesitate about. I must find the Biwei Silver Needle," Xiao Yifei said determinedly.

"Of course, I invited you here not just for a meal. I have something very important to entrust you with. I know my request might be excessive, but at this point, I really can’t find anyone more suitable than you," Hu Jingtang said, suddenly very serious.
