The two women had caught Yang Guang’s attention the moment they walked in. One was in her 40s, while the other was around 17 or 18. Judging from their appearances, he could tell they either lived in the town or one of the nearby villages.
Seeing that they were walking toward him, Yang Guang put his chopsticks down.
“Excuse me, are you the one who treated Mr. He just now?” the middle-aged woman asked.
“Yes.” Yang Guang nodded. “And you are?”
“I am Mrs. He. This young lady here is our daughter,” the woman introduced herself and her daughter. “We rushed here from our village as soon as we heard about what happened to him.”
“I see. But Mr. He has already been taken to the hospital. Why aren’t you guys visiting him there, but have come to me instead?” Yang Guang asked curiously.
Mrs. He smiled and explained, “I heard from someone who was at the scene that my husband would be in grave danger if not for you, Dr. Yang. I also learned that you were about to give him a prescription before Dr. Hu stopped you. I hope you can give us the prescription…”
Yang Guang and Xu Ling finally understood the situation.
Just as the young doctor was about to tell them what kind of medicinal herbs they should buy, he was stopped by Xu Ling’s glare. The village secretary then turned to them and said, “Mrs. He, you don’t have to ask Yang Guang about this. You just have to ask for drugs that can treat brain hemorrhage from any pharmacy in the town. They’ll be able to get you everything you need.”
Knowing that Xu Ling was trying to protect him, Yang Guang nodded. “She’s right. I don’t have any mysterious prescription that can cure him instantly. It’s pretty much the same as what the pharmacy will give you.”
“I see…” Mrs. He showed obvious signs of disappointment, but didn’t express it. “Thank you, Dr. Yang. We’ll come and pay our gratitude to you once my husband recovers.”
“You don’t have to do that.” Yang Guang smiled. “It’s my job to save people.”
Throughout the whole conversation, Mr. He’s daughter did not say a word. She kept staring at Yang Guang with mixed expressions on her face. No one could tell what she was thinking.
She just kept staring until she and her mother left together.
After the mother and daughter were gone, Yang Guang turned to Xu Ling and grinned. “Ling! You’re the best to me.”
“Here you go again…” Xu Ling sighed. “You sure know how to talk to a girl. Hurry up and finish your food. I still have work to do after lunch.”
“What kind of work?” Yang Guang asked.
“My higher-ups want us to count the number of low-income families in our village. Each village has an indicator for that, and I have to report it to the government,” Xu Ling explained.
“I see. Then, Ling, you have to make sure you find all of them. In the past, all the reported low-income families have been Sun Guoying’s relatives. Some of them even have more than Y10,000 in savings. These people are literally taking the government’s money when they aren’t even poor,” Yang Guang said.
“I heard about that too. However, now that we are counting again, I’m not going to let anyone take advantage of me.”
“That’s the spirit! If anyone tries to stop you, I’ll beat them up.”
“Violence is not a solution.” Xu Ling scolded him and rolled her eyes as she had no idea how to control this naughty young man in front of her.
After lunch, the sun was at its highest. Even though it was hot outside, the breeze from riding the bikes offset the heat. That was why both of them could ride out of Hongqi Town and back to Qingshan Village without having any worries of getting heatstroke.
They soon reached their destination.
When they parked the two new electric bikes outside Yang Guang’s house, Wu Xiaolian came out with Yaya in her arms and smiled. “Oh? You got two new ones?”
“One’s for Ling and the other is for us. It was more convenient to get two,” Yang Guang said and took out two stacks of cash for Wu Xiaolian. “Here, I’m pretty sure that your mother and brother will be here to collect the money soon. Give them 50,000, and keep the rest as pocket money.”
“Isn’t this a little too much?” Wu Xiaolian shook her head as the two stacks of cash totaled 20,000.
“We have more than enough to spare.” Yang Guang grinned. “When you head to town tomorrow, buy yourself and Yaya some new clothes. And get my cute niece some new toys as well.”
Wu Xiaolian wanted to say that they shouldn’t waste money even if they had it, but she couldn’t bring herself to say it.
“Guang’s right,” Xu Ling agreed while nodding. “Xiaolian, you should treat yourself sometimes. It’s your money, and you have all the rights to spend it.”
In the end, Wu Xiaoliian had no choice but to take the money.
Her heart was warm to the point where tears were about to fill her eyes. However, she didn’t want to let Yang Guang and Xu Ling see her crying, so she held them back.
After that, Xu Ling headed to the village headquarters while Yang Guang went to check out the hill.
He had been procrastinating and the due date of the bet was closing in, but he still had not started planting the Tianma.
He arrived at the hill after traveling in the hot sun. After passing through some bushes, he finally spotted the entrance to the cave.
The cave was huge, and it was a place where he would play with other kids his age when he was younger.
Even if it was mid-summer, the cave was chilly as if there was an air-conditioner turned on in there. That was why they loved playing in there.
However, after a few rockfall incidents, people stopped coming to the cave, and its entrance was soon covered with wild bushes.
Seeing how dark the cave was, Yang Guang took out his flashlight and headed in.
It would be easy for him to clean the entrance. All he needed was to hire someone with a mini excavator to clear the bushes and create a path.
However, the situation was different inside the cave. Rocks would fall occasionally, and he would need a way to secure the ceiling.
Since he could still see with the help of the sunlight, Yang Guang had not turned on his flashlight yet.
Just when he was about to head even further in, he suddenly heard moans coming from the deeper part of the cave.
HMMM? Yang Guang paused and his eyes widened.
He could instantly tell what the moan was.
His expression immediately turned into an excited one, and he slowly crept forward.
It was clear to him that a man and woman were having sex inside the cave.
And the only people who knew of the cave were those from Qingshan Village.
It piqued Yang Guang’s curiosity, and he wanted to know who they were.
The path inside the cave was not a straight line but instead had a lot of turns. When Yang Guang approached one of the corners, he peeked his head out a little and saw two naked bodies.
Since it was dark inside, he couldn’t see who they were. But it was obvious that their bodies were closely touching one another.
Yang Guang dropped his jaw when he learned that his guess was correct. However, he was still curious as to who they were.
The only reason they would do it inside the cave was that they weren’t a couple.
Yang Guang thought of yelling to scare them, but he managed to hold himself back from doing so.
Instead, he reached for the floor and picked up a rock that was the size of a goose egg.
