Chapter 181: Meager Power
A pair of eyes full of tenderness, rippling with endless gentleness like the clear lake water in spring; the faint smile at the corner of the mouth seems to be able to melt all the ice and frost in the world, looking gently at the person with a perverse temper but full of great love.
Jiang Chengyu held the stew pot carefully in both hands, with a focused look on his face, as if he was holding a treasure unparalleled in the world.
The steam from the stew pot rose up, exuding an alluring aroma. Mu Xiaoji drank the red date and black chicken soup leisurely, spoonful by spoonful, looking extremely comfortable, as if he was savoring the beauty of life with every mouthful.
"Have you thought it through? Are you planning to go back to G City tomorrow? Don't you need to go back to see grandma and mom and dad?" Jiang Chengyu asked softly, with a hint of concern in his words. His gentle voice was like a breeze brushing past his ears.
"You're in a good mood and you can drink some soup. Why are you asking such an inappropriate question at this time?" Mu Xiaoji frowned slightly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone. His slightly frowned brows seemed to tell of his little emotions.
Jiang Chengyu hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, take your time and finish it. You made such a hasty decision, I'll go pack my luggage." Jiang Chengyu's eyes were full of apology, as if he had made an unforgivable mistake.
"No need to clean up. Have you forgotten that we bought so many things and put them in the closet?" Mu Xiaoji responded with a hint of decisiveness in his tone.
"There are still so many ingredients in the refrigerator!" Jiang Chengyu was still a little reluctant, and his eyes revealed his nostalgia for this place.
"Old Rong will come over tonight and take everything away for him." Mu Xiaoji's tone was decisive and resolute, leaving no room for negotiation.
After saying that, Jiang Chengyu looked embarrassed and sighed softly, "Hmm, I haven't lived here enough!" Jiang Chengyu's face was full of reluctance, as if there were countless memories here that he couldn't let go.
"Then? You'll be staying for two days?" Mu Xiaoji asked tentatively, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
"If I live alone, forget it!" Jiang Chengyu shook his head and said helplessly.
"Ding Dong", the doorbell downstairs suddenly rang, and the crisp sound broke the silence in the house.
Jiang Chengyu hurriedly said, "Here, I'll go see who it is?" After that, he turned and walked towards the door. His vigorous steps were full of energy, and he swept downstairs like a gust of wind.
The doorbell ding-donged, Jiang Chengyu quickened his pace and shouted, "I'm coming..."
There was a hint of urgency in his voice, as if he couldn't wait to know who was outside the door.
Jiang Chengyu opened the door and saw a uniformed postman standing at the door.
"Sir, please sign your letter here." The postman said politely, his voice full of professionalism and rigor.
Jiang Chengyu took the pen and signed it with a flourish. After closing the door, he opened the letter as he walked, and inside it turned out to be a bank card.
Jiang Chengyu took out his mobile phone and activated it in order. A text message prompted that 3 million had been received and thanked him for using it.
Jiang Chengyu put away the bank card, quickened his pace again, ran upstairs in two steps at a time, and soon reached the bedroom.
Pushing the door open, Mu Xiaoji asked, "Who is it?" Mu Xiaoji's eyes were full of curiosity.
"A courier." Jiang Chengyu replied in a flat tone.
"What did you buy?" Mu Xiaoji asked again, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"No, I just applied for a card." Jiang Chengyu explained calmly.
"Apply for a card? Are you short of money now?" Mu Xiaoji frowned slightly, with a hint of worry in his tone.
"No, the news website recently reported on the Xiaoyang Village service area incident, calling on caring people to donate to help alleviate poverty. Let us also do our part!" Jiang Chengyu said seriously, with a kind light flashing in his eyes.
"How much have you prepared?" Mu Xiaoji asked, with a hint of curiosity in his tone.
"Three million..." Jiang Chengyu said softly. Although his voice was small, it was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing thousands of waves.
"Haha, my little monster is so generous." Mu Xiaoji's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a gratified smile.
"Xiao...Xiao Ji, is it too much or too little?" Jiang Chengyu asked nervously, his eyes full of anxiety.
"Okay, this is not a small amount of money. During the safety period, you can give it to Captain Xing! He has been paying close attention to the developments in Xiaoyang Village. It is better for him to safely deliver the money to the local area and put it into practice than for unscrupulous people to covet it." Mu Xiaoji said after thinking for a moment, with caution in his tone.
"I'll take you to the hospital for a comprehensive check-up first, and then we'll go to the police station." Jiang Chengyu suggested, his eyes full of concern.
"I'm not going. I'm going to take a nap. I'll let you do whatever you want when we get back to Renxin Hospital."
After that, Mu Xiaoji stuffed the stew pot to Jiang Chengyu, continued to lie down, adjusted the pillow, and closed his eyes. Mu Xiaoji's movements were smooth and natural, as if everything was under his control.
"I'll go out then. You should have a good rest." Jiang Chengyu said gently, his eyes full of love.
"Go quickly and come back soon." Mu Xiaoji spoke briefly and to the point, with a hint of command in his tone.
Jiang Chengyu smiled faintly, got up and left the bedroom, gently closing the door. After going downstairs, he went straight to the kitchen, cleaned the stew pot, and put it in the cupboard.
Jiang Chengyu's movements were skillful and neat, as if he had done this countless times.
Then he walked to the door swiftly, put on his coat, changed into slippers, took his car keys and left the room.
He strode to the Land Rover Range Rover parking space, got in the car, and then called Xing Zhongxing.
Soon, the call was connected: "Hello, I'm Xing Zhongxing." Xing Zhongxing's voice was steady and powerful.
"Hello, Captain Xing, I am Jiang Chengyu." Jiang Chengyu's tone was filled with a hint of respect.
"Jiang Chengyu? What's the matter?" Xing Zhongxing responded with a hint of doubt in his voice.
"Aren't you in the bureau?" Jiang Chengyu asked again, with a hint of anxiety in his eyes.
"I'm on duty. What can I do for you?" Xing Zhongxing said in a serious tone, as if he was carrying out an important mission.
"I saw the incident in Xiaoyang Village and wanted to do my best to help; I wanted to donate some money. But Mu Xiaoji wanted to leave Kuncheng tonight and go back to G City, and the amount was a bit too much.
I want to let you implement it during the safety period, and I don't want to give anyone with ulterior motives an opportunity to take advantage of it. I know you will keep paying attention to it until Xiaoyang Village changes. What do you think? "Jiang Chengyu said sincerely, with a firm light flashing in his eyes.
"Oh, why don't I call the director, and you go directly to the bureau to meet Director Chang!" Xing Zhongxing said after thinking for a moment, his tone cautious.
"How about this, Captain Xing? I'm going to the hospital now to see how Zhai Minghao's recovery is going. How about I give it to Zhai Minghao directly? After you come back, go to the hospital to visit Zhai Minghao and let him leave it to you!" Jiang Chengyu suggested, his eyes full of anticipation.
"Okay, okay." Xing Zhongxing agreed, his voice firm.
"Captain Xing, I'm sorry to trouble you! Bye..."
"Oh, no problem. Given the large number, I should be cautious. Bye..."
After that, Jiang Chengyu hung up the phone, stepped on the accelerator and drove out of the villa in the sea view area, heading directly to the city center hospital. The Range Rover sped along the road like a cheetah running on the grassland.
The Range Rover slowly parked in front of a supermarket. Jiang Chengyu got out of the car and walked straight to the supermarket. The supermarket was bustling with people coming and going. The shelves were filled with a variety of goods.
Jiang Chengyu carefully selected two fruit baskets, looking as if he was selecting the most precious gift in the world. He paid quickly and walked out of the supermarket.
At this moment, the sunlight shines on him, which is particularly pleasing to the eye. His figure also appears particularly tall in the sunlight, like a beautiful landscape.
The Range Rover was speeding through the city streets, moving forward like lightning. Jiang Chengyu suddenly saw a flower shop and stopped the car without hesitation.
When you walk into the flower shop, you will see colorful flowers competing with each other in beauty, and the fragrance of flowers will fill your nose, making you feel relaxed and happy.
Jiang Chengyu quickly picked out two bouquets of the most colorful flowers, took the bouquet with a sunny smile on his face, paid the money promptly and left.
His movements were swift and decisive, as if everything was under his control.
In a flash, the Range Rover slowly drove into the parking space of the Central Hospital. Jiang Chengyu walked briskly towards Zhai Minghao's ward in the orthopedic department, holding flowers and a fruit basket.
When I opened the door, I saw Wu Lan and Zhai Minghao chatting happily. The room was full of laughter, as if it was a warm harbor.
"Hey, you two are here!" Jiang Chengyu greeted with a hearty smile, his voice full of energy.
"Jiang Chengyu, did you win the lottery today?" Wu Lan joked, with a hint of teasing in her eyes.
"I don't think highly of that kind of thing." Jiang Chengyu said with a confident smile, a hint of pride in his tone.
After that, he quickly gave Wu Lan a bouquet of flowers.
"I wish the beautiful lady a speedy recovery!"
"Thank you for the expense!"
"You're being too polite!" Jiang Chengyu said politely. He put the fruit basket on the ground, then strode towards Zhai Minghao and placed another bouquet of flowers on his bedside table.
He asked with a smile on his face, "How have you been feeling these past two days?" Jiang Chengyu's eyes were full of concern, as if Zhai Minghao was his own brother.
"Thank you. Please don't take my previous mean intentions to heart."
Jiang Chengyu said with a meaningful smile: "I didn't show any mercy when I attacked you, right? It's even." The two of them smiled and punched each other in tacit agreement to show their reconciliation. Their smiles were as bright as the sun, warming up the whole room.
Jiang Chengyu took out the card and said, “Give this card to Captain Xing. This is a donation to Xiaoyang Village for poverty alleviation. This is a little gift from Xiaoji.
Let's say Mr. Mu Xiaoji donated 3 million to Renxin Hospital in G City. Renxin Hospital is Mu Xiaoji's industry. If you need anything, please call me. I'm always available. " Jiang Chengyu's eyes flashed with determination, and he treated every one of his patients sincerely.
"After this lesson, I have a new understanding of you two. I look down on myself from the bottom of my heart. Senior sister is right to scold me. I am the most disgusting person."
Zhai Minghao felt ashamed of himself as he looked at the heavy donation of 3 million yuan, his eyes full of regret and self-blame.
Zhai Minghao said firmly, as if he was carrying a mission: "Don't worry, I will definitely fulfill my mission and pass on this love to Captain Xing."
Jiang Chengyu smiled brightly, peeled an apple for Wu Lan, and then began to peel another one for Zhai Minghao. Jiang Chengyu's movements were skillful and gentle, as if he was taking care of his own family.
"You are as sharp-tongued as a kid, but you are still decisive when it comes to doing things. I believe you." After saying that, Jiang Chengyu handed the apple to Zhai Minghao.
Zhai Minghao humbly said, "You eat."
Jiang Chengyu said with a smile: "Eat! I just came to see how you have been these days. Did Doctor Liu take another X-ray for you later?" Jiang Chengyu's eyes were full of concern, as if Zhai Minghao's health was more important than anything else.
"We've taken the X-ray and the dislocated part has been restored. I'd like to praise you two for your magical operation." Zhai Minghao said, his eyes full of admiration.
"I'm just trying my best. No one believes in this now, so I won't learn it. It will take special skills in the near future!" Jiang Chengyu sighed, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
"Mu Xiaojita...?" Zhai Minghao asked with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
"He is also a dull guy. If it weren't for the coincidence that I disappeared for two years, he would have understood it in his grief and made a breakthrough in the technique. Before that, he didn't know how to do it and was chased by others several times, leaving him covered in wounds."
Jiang Chengyu recalled the past, with a hint of emotion in his eyes. His voice was low and slow, as if he was telling an ancient story.
"I told you to say so. The deep feelings you have today are the result of your unyielding loyalty accumulated through inhuman experiences?" Zhai Minghao said thoughtfully.
Jiang Chengyu seemed to be lost in the past and nodded meaningfully. Their eyes were full of memories of the past and expectations for the future.
