Chapter 155: Chapter 155 Can We Help?

Xu Nianhua sat there in a stupor, completely forgetting she had been staring at him this whole time.

Until Pei Yicheng’s voice came through, "Do I look good?"

Last time, she seemed to have complimented his looks.

"Handsome."

Xu Nianhua nodded subconsciously.

The corners of Pei Yicheng’s lips curled up involuntarily; taking advantage of her momentary distraction, his fishing rod twitched with another bite.

Fish after fish were being reeled in; Xu Nianhua became so delighted she forgot to feel awkward.

"The fish is getting away." Xu Nianhua failed to hold it firmly, and the fish slipped to Pei Yicheng’s feet; she quickly announced it.

Pei Yicheng bent down, and before he could catch the fish, it gave a wriggle and, with a ’plop,’ successfully escaped back into the water.

"What a pity, just missed it by a little."

Xu Nianhua didn’t have time to react, she could only watch the ripples made by the escaping fish.

"It was me, I moved too slowly."

A hint of annoyance flashed across Pei Yicheng’s eyes, thinking if his legs could walk, such a thing would never happen.

Just as Xu Nianhua was about to say something, she turned and saw the vexation in his eyes, and she playfully said, "Brother Pei, perhaps this fish didn’t want to be made into our soup."

"You’re already amazing, catching so many fish; we could make several bowls of soup. There are two big carp and three crucian carp!"

Xu Nianhua sincerely praised him; they’d only been there for about two hours, and Pei Yicheng’s catch was indeed impressive!

"Not bad," Pei Yicheng said modestly, feeling Xu Nianhua deliberately skirted the subject and was trying to cheer him up, he thought: Nian’an was right, she truly is a considerate and kind-hearted girl.

"I plan to visit an old traditional doctor in South City during the National Day holiday," Pei Yicheng suddenly mentioned.

Xu Nianhua looked at him somewhat astounded, thinking he would be very resistant to talking about his leg, but he treated it as casually as if he were discussing a common cold, she asked, "Is Doctor Du going with you?"

"No, Grandfather’s clinic rarely closes, it will just be me and Ling Dong going." Pei Yicheng thought, while it’s true that the clinic is always busy, when his grandfather found out about the trip to South City, he was adamant about going along.

But Pei Yicheng didn’t want his grandfather to have to travel so much; though his grandfather was in good health, he suffered greatly from car sickness. Each trip left his grandfather as if he had been through an illness.

"With just the two of you, will you manage? Can we help in any way?" Xu Nianhua volunteered eagerly, adding, "My second brother and I will have a holiday for National Day as well."

She thought, Pei Yicheng had helped them so much, and if the Chili Sauce Factory were to develop, it would be very beneficial to the Xu Family.

Coming and going to South City would take at least three days, and depending on the condition of his leg, if treatment were needed, it could be as short as three to five days or as long as ten days to half a month.

Xu Nianhua and her classmates were high school seniors; he couldn’t let his selfishness interfere with her studies.

"No need," Pei Yicheng said firmly after some thought, refusing the offer, "Ling Dong is very capable, and besides, it’s only my legs that can’t walk, not my whole body that can’t move."

"Then," Xu Nianhua thought of Gu Family when she considered South City, and refrained from saying more, she said instead, "I wish you all the best and hope your leg heals soon."

"Thank you."

Pei Yicheng, looking into her sincere eyes, thought to himself: Hopefully, the old doctor in South City is as remarkable as the rumors suggest.
