Chapter 371: Chapter 371 Refusal and Request

Yuan Jianing said, "Then it’s settled. Otherwise, I can’t explain myself and it’s such a loss of face." After saying this, she even chuckled.

The Jing Family’s car didn’t enter the main courtyard, but stopped at an inconspicuous place, as Luo Qiao had instructed beforehand.

Elsewhere, "Sir, I didn’t expect Miss Luo to be so lucky. Before our people could take action, she found a courtyard. I’ve inquired about it; the yard is quite nice.

However, it needs some renovation before moving in. It was previously allocated to over a dozen households by the government, and the main household had only recently reclaimed it."

The sir simply listened without speaking, then heard the person continue, "Miss Luo completed the transfer procedures yesterday. We checked, and there are no lingering issues with the property."

When Luo Qiao arrived at the Jing’s home, the main hall wasn’t as crowded as it was that day, only the youngest son of the Jing Family, Jing Wanpeng, was there.

After greeting Elder Jing and having someone push him back to his room and help him lie down on the bed, Luo Qiao began her examination, then prepared for acupuncture.

Elder Jing said, "Girl, these past two nights I’ve been able to sleep soundly, all thanks to you."

Luo Qiao earnestly said, "Grandpa Jing, I am happy to do something for a veteran hero like you. I will do my utmost to heal your legs as quickly as possible, so you don’t have to suffer that way anymore."

Elder Jing’s leg injury was indeed quite severe, so today, as Luo Qiao applied the needles, she also infused them with a well-controlled amount of her Wood-Based Special Ability.

After finishing the acupuncture and sorting out Elder Jing’s meridians, she asked, "How many doses of the medicine have you taken?"

The middle-aged man standing beside replied, "We started on the same day, and including this morning, he has taken five doses."

After feeling the pulse and nodding her head, "At the very least, Elder Jing can have a good New Year’s, no longer having to endure such unbearable pain, and he will be able to sleep well at night."

Thinking of making some Calming Incense to give to Elder Jing later, a veteran hero like him deserves her consideration. That was all she could do.

In the remaining few minutes, Luo Qiao went to the head of the bed and started massaging his head; with her Special Ability flowing in, Elder Jing comfortably drifted into sleep.

Jing Wanpeng could tell that Luo Qiao’s words were heartfelt and couldn’t help but hold her in even higher regard.

Once the needles were removed and everything was packed up, Luo Qiao was ready to leave, but Elder Jing had not yet awakened.

Right after Luo Qiao left the room, Jing Wanpeng, who followed her out, asked, "To what extent can my father’s leg recover?"

After thinking for a moment, Luo Qiao said, "It’s really hard to say. After all, Elder Jing’s leg injury is very serious, and recovery requires a process. Next time I come, I’ll bring some ointment. You should massage his knee joints with it for half an hour every day, combined with acupuncture and the herbal medicine.

Next year, when the weather gets warmer, you can try letting him practice walking. Afterwards, I’ll adjust the prescription based on his condition. As to what extent it can improve, that still depends on the individual’s constitution."

Jing Wanpeng handed her a thick envelope, "This is a token of my gratitude. I hope you’ll accept it."

Luo Qiao did not take it but casually said, "I’ll not take the money. After all, what I said earlier came from the heart. If Mr. Jing feels uneasy, perhaps you could do me a favor instead, how about that?"

Jing Wanpeng was surprised by Luo Qiao’s approach but said with interest, "Please, go on."

Luo Qiao said, "It might be a bit troublesome, but I believe you can definitely manage it. I want to buy a Sony Walkman. I’ve tried several places but they were all out of stock. I would trouble Mr. Jing to inquire about it."

Sony released the TPS-L2 in July 1979, the world’s first Walkman, complete with specially designed headphones.

Luo Qiao intended to give it to her second brother for learning English; she believed that he just needed the opportunity and he would create a miracle. She always felt that her brother’s mind was different from others, evidenced by the fact that the books he was now reading were professional reference books.

Those were the books her grandfather said her second brother had asked to borrow, all through connections at the university with the condition they be returned after reading.

Jing Wanpeng heard her request and said, "Okay, I’ll have someone look into it."

Luo Qiao declined the Jing Family’s offer of a car ride home and left on her own. She found a safe place, entered a space to apply makeup, changed her clothes, and emerged looking like a middle-aged woman.
