Chapter 524: Five hundred and nineteen men on the billboard_1

On the way back, Mr. Wei Tianfu personally escorted me.

Gu Xin originally wanted to say it wasn’t necessary, but then he remembered he had been drinking.

Not wanting Ji Pianran and Tangtang shed tears,

he had no choice but to trouble Mr. Wei Tianfu to take him home.

They were all very proactive about the child’s situation.

As soon as Gu Xin finished eating, they set off immediately.

Though it seemed somewhat rude, Gu Xin could completely understand their feelings.

Just like Old Yuan, who wouldn’t want their child to get better soon?

After getting into the car, Mr. Wei Tianfu drove with a stern face. If Gu Xin hadn’t been observing him throughout the entire meal, he might have thought Mr. Wei was unhappy.

But in fact, it was just Mr. Wei’s demeanor; it was hard for him to force a smile.

"Brother Wei, what do you do for a living?" Gu Xin asked curiously from the passenger seat.

Gu Xin could guess the identities of the two elders, but he couldn’t quite figure out Mr. Wei Tianfu’s.

"My job mainly involves overseeing various affairs in Chuan City," he also answered Gu Xin’s question.

But the answer was too vague.

Various affairs in Chuan City? What did that mean? With millions of people in such a big city, the affairs would be endless.

Gu Xin didn’t continue to inquire, as he was just making casual conversation.

He wasn’t that interested in what the job actually was.

When they were exiting the residential area, the security guard checked the car’s interior.

But upon seeing Mr. Wei Tianfu, he respectfully allowed them to pass.

This made Gu Xin feel even more curious, as it seemed the guard’s respect for Mr. Wei arose not because of the two elders but because of Mr. Wei Tianfu himself.

Could it be that Mr. Wei had some big business in Chuan City? That seemed unlikely.

Given the elders’ statuses, Mr. Wei Tianfu would theoretically be in the military, right?

So it was very possible that he was some kind of military commander.

Sitting in the front seat, he idly speculated about Mr. Wei’s rank.

Mr. Wei Tianfu sat upright and drove diligently. Not to mention anything else, if Mr. Wei was a driver, Gu Xin was sure he would be a responsible one, trustworthy for his earnest dedication alone.

Halfway through the journey, Gu Xin casually glanced around.

He saw an advertisement board under the streetlight, with a photo and a hotline for citizens.

He was just glancing out of boredom, but when he saw the vague silhouette on the board, he froze on the spot.

Then he hurriedly lowered the car window.

He clearly saw the photo on the board, which looked exactly like the "professional driver" in his car.

Gu Xin was stunned and exclaimed in surprise, "The top leader!"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Wei Tianfu glanced at him and responded without much reaction, "It’s all part of the job."

Gu Xin’s mouth twitched, almost reversing the meal he had just swallowed.

Never had he calculated that this man would be the top leader.

No wonder! No wonder the security guard was so respectful to him earlier.

To have the top leader drive for him, perhaps he was the only one in Chuan City to have such a privilege.

Of course, excluding Mr. Wei Tianfu’s family circumstances.

With a slightly nervous heart, he finally arrived at his destination.

"Mr. Gu, please go upstairs, I will wait for you here," he said very politely to Gu Xin.

Telling Gu Xin to go upstairs and prepare the herbal medicine himself.

"Why don’t I bring it to you later? It takes a long time to prepare herbal medicine."

Everything else was manageable if he hadn’t known Mr. Wei’s identity before; then let him wait if he wished to wait.

But now that he knew the man was the top leader, letting him wait would be somewhat offensive.

"It’s no trouble at all, Mr. Gu, to be honest, you really went out of your way this time."

He spoke with utmost civility, without a hint of pretension.

The impression he gave was not at all that of a mayor, but just an ordinary father.

"Please wait here, I’ll prepare it as quickly as possible."

Gu Xin said to him, and after that, he planned to get out of the car.

At this moment, Wei Tianfu suddenly spoke up, "Mr. Gu, don’t worry, I’m not busy today, and even if I were, it wouldn’t be as important as this matter."

Gu Xin was a clever man, and he understood what was meant immediately.

Wei was worried that if the medicine was prepared too hastily, its efficacy might not be up to standard.

"Okay, rest assured."

After saying that, Gu Xin got out of the car.

Once he returned home, he immediately set up the small pot.

He pondered how much of each herb to use.

Because his observation was that Xiao Meng’s condition was completely different from Qi Qi’s, much more severe.

This was his dilemma, worrying that if he used too little, would the effect still be good?

With the Spiritual Spring in hand, he wasn’t too concerned.

So, on top of the dosage used for Qi Qi’s medicine, Gu Xin added about half more.

What followed was a long and tedious process of decoction.

Having increased the dosage, Gu Xin also extended the brewing time proportionately by fifty percent.

After nearly three hours of work, Gu Xin poured out all the medicine.

Once the medicine was ready, he hurried down to check.

He discovered that Wei Tianfu was, indeed, just sitting in the car waiting.

He had been sitting there for three whole hours, a true display of patience.

After Gu Xin got into the car, Wei immediately inquired, "Is everything ready, Mr. Gu?"

He was so polite that Gu Xin felt a bit embarrassed.

"You can call me Xiao Gu or Xiao Xin. Everything is ready, we can go back now."

Gu Xin took the initiative at that moment to suggest a different form of address.

Otherwise, he really felt a bit uncomfortable.

Wei Tianfu didn’t insist on formality, so he nodded in agreement.

They drove back to the villa district.

Upon entering the Wei Family’s gate, they saw the two elders sitting on the sofa, drinking tea.

Seeing Gu Xin return, they immediately stood up to greet him.

Spotting the small thermos in Gu Xin’s hand, everyone knew what it contained.

"You’ve worked hard, please sit down and rest. Tianfu, go call Xiao Meng down."

Wei Baoguo expressed his gratitude to Gu Xin, pulling him by the hand to take a seat.

The woman who had been tidying up the kitchen at the time also came out.

It could be said that at this moment, the entire family’s focus was on the contents of this small thermos.

This could very well be the thing that would change the child’s destiny for the rest of her life.

Wei Tianfu came down with Xiao Meng, and it seemed that her mood had stabilized a lot now.

However, she still didn’t dare to look directly at Gu Xin.

Gu Xin maintained a smiling face, trying as much as possible to keep Xiao Meng from feeling pressured.

"Boss Gu, can this medicine be drunk directly?"

Wei Baoguo asked Gu Xin with caution, fearful of any mishap.
