<h4>Chapter 992: Chapter 984: Two Categories</h4>
Seeing Xiao Yifei’s file, she discovered that, although his experience wasn’t particrly outstanding, it wasn’t mediocre either. In the industry, he should be a very skilled doctor. Yet, just when his career was at its peak, he chose to resign. And such an excellent person hasn’t even married yet. All of this left Hua Xiangrong a bit puzzled.
Her curiosity about Xiao Yifei grew even stronger, she was eager to know what kind of person he was. It seemed like she made the right choice in letting Xiao Yifei stay at her house; she’d have more opportunities to learn about him in the future.
"Since my family’s generations, except for my father, were almost all doctors, I’ve been influenced by medicine from a young age, so it was natural for me to choose this profession," said Xiao Yifei. In fact, a lot of life choices seem unreasonable; rather than saying Xiao Yifei chose medicine, it might be more urate to say medicine chose him.
In reality, Xiao Yifei never thought of other options, nor could he pinpoint when he decided he had to be a doctor.
Hua Xiangrong’s home wasn’t far from the Police Department, about a twenty-minute walk. Arriving at Hua Xiangrong’s house, Xiao Yifei observed the structure and realized it must have been built over a decade ago; he felt quite a contrast.
Previously, from Hua Xiangrong’s demeanor, Xiao Yifei assumed she came from a well-off family, but looking at the house now, it seemed entirely different!
"Dad, I’m back. This is a friend of mine; he’ll be staying with us for a few days. What delicious food have you made today?" Hua Xiangrong asked.
Only then did Xiao Yifei see Hua Xiangrong’s father, which surprised him. He thought Hua Xiangrong lived alone, and in their prior conversations, there was no mention of her father. Had he known, he wouldn’t havee to stay, as moving into a stranger’s home made him feel rather awkward.
"Hello, Uncle, sorry for any inconvenience over the next few days," Xiao Yifei said with a smile to Hua Xiangrong’s father.
"Hello, it’s no trouble at all. Rongrong hasn’t brought any friends home before, you’re the first. Rongrong, why didn’t you tell me earlier? I would have prepared more food if I knew," Hua Xiangrong’s father said, somewhat reprimanding his daughter.
"I didn’t expect it either; I was busy all morning. It’s fine, Xiao Yifei won’t mind these details," said Hua Xiangrong.
"Exactly, Uncle. You letting me stay is already kind enough, there’s no need for such formality," said Xiao Yifei, feeling grateful that Hua Xiangrong wasn’t too formal with him, otherwise, he’d have really felt ufortable.
"Let me serve the food, you two go sit down first." Hua father said as he headed to the kitchen.
Then Xiao Yifei noticed that one of Hua Xiangrong’s father’s legs wasme. He hadn’t moved much before, so Xiao Yifei hadn’t paid attention to his leg’s condition. He made no significant reaction, pretending not to have noticed.
"My dad’s leg has beenme for over ten years; it’s an old issue," Hua Xiangrong told Xiao Yifei.
Hua Xiangrong’s frankness often caught Xiao Yifei off guard.
"Maybe I can take a look at it, there might be hope for a cure," said Xiao Yifei, though inwardly he wasn’t certain, he felt he had to try to find out.
"Then it’s troublesome for you. My dad never went to see a doctor properly, due tock of money before, he just endured. Now I’ve only just started earning, I nned to save enough to take him for a thorough check-up," Hua Xiangrong said.
"But it was quite coincidental running into you like this. I googled you earlier and found you’re quite the skilled Chinese Medicine practitioner, maybe there’s hope for my dad’s leg," Hua Xiangrong said, eyes filled with anticipation.
"It’s indeed a coincidence; maybe fate arranged this encounter between us, so many things are such coincidences really," Xiao Yifei smiled and said.
Many things in the world seem full of coincidences, perhaps they’re all destined! Xiao Yifei thought, and with this thought, he didn’t worry too much about the future. After all, what will happen will inevitably happen; overthinking would only cause trouble for himself.
Hua father brought out the prepared lunch, which looked like an ordinary meal with two stir-fried dishes and rice, nothingpared to Hu Jingtang’s meals, which always featured a variety of dishes.
It seemed Hua Xiangrong’s family wasn’t very well-off.
"The food is simple, I hope you won’t mind, just make do," Hua father said once more to Xiao Yifei.
"I really don’t mind, Uncle, you don’t need to be so formal," the courteousness was making Xiao Yifei a bit ufortable.
Xiao Yifei ate a little since he wasn’t hungry yet, having eaten quite a bit earlier in the morning.
After the meal, they rested for a while and settled Xiao Yifei into his ce before Hua Xiangrong went back to work.
Left with nothing to do, Xiao Yifei said to Hua father, "Uncle, I’m a Chinese Medicine practitioner, could I take a look at your leg?"
"Go ahead; it’s been an old issue for over ten years, never got it treated, I don’t know if it can still be healed," Hua father said.
Hua father had an ident over a decade ago, resulting in hismeness. Due tocking funds, it hadn’t been treated and dragged on to this day. However, he’s grown ustomed to it, having endured the toughest days raising his daughter alone behind him.
Now life seemed fulfilling enough with his daughter having realized his expectations by getting into college and now working in the Police Department, his efforts weren’t in vain. So now he’s hardly hopeful about his leg, epting whateveres.
"Let me give it a try," said Xiao Yifei, examining Hua father’s leg and finding there might still be hope of recovery. Yet the prolonged dy had missed the optimal treatment window, making treatment now considerably more challenging.
"Uncle, there’s still hope for your leg, but not at this moment. Ick the tools to treat it; treatment must await the recovery of my stolen tools," said Xiao Yifei.
Currently, only the Green-eyed Silver-tailed Needle could treat Hua father’s leg, but unfortunately, it was stolen.
"No worries, I’m used to this. For me now, early orte recovery makes no difference, I’m not in a hurry," Hua father said.
Afterward, Xiao Yifei wandered around outside, feeling anxious. Despite constantly persuading himself frantess would do no good, it was impossible not to be anxious. He didn’t know when the case could be solved, and waiting indefinitely wasn’t a solution either.
