Chapter 21: Pi Wan


    When the two were chatting, Fatty came back holding bags of ingredients. Pi Wan was shocked to see Fatty. After Jiang Cheng slowly introduced Fatty as his friend, Pi Wan instantly weed Fatty like an old friend. Fatty was overwhelmed.


    Hello. Pi Wan grabbed Fattys free hand. Im Pi Wan. Nice to meet you.


    Fatty was very confused, so he turned to Jiang Cheng. As usual, he saw nothing on Jiang Chengs face, so he turned back to the young man before him. He said with some regret and shyness, Brother, Im sorry that you have this illness at such a young age, but Im not the doctor, and I cant help you.


    Pi Wans hand froze in mid-air.


    Fatty suddenly remembered he needed to go cook, so he said goodbye and disappeared into the kitchen.


    Jiang Cheng didnt dwell on this. He asked Pi Wan to sit back down and asked, How is your girlfriend now?


    Pi Wan sighed, Shes about the same, if a little worse than before. She keeps suspecting me of cheating on her. Pi Wan suddenly became agitated and stressed, Doctor Jiang, you know me. How could I be that kind of person?


    Hmm. Jiang Cheng took out a blue notebook and wrote something on it. I know.


    Then, Pi Wan started to pour out his heartache. He counted the sacrifices he had made for his girlfriend but only got misunderstandings in return. At one point, he even started to cry.


    After Fatty cleaned the ribs, he put them into the pot to boil. When the pot started to bubble, Fatty washed his hands and exited the kitchen.


    Pi Wan was still unloading his story. Jiang Cheng didnt show much empathy. He nodded and grumbled here and there to show that he was listening. Fatty was curious about Jiang Chengs work, so he pulled over a chair to sit down and observe. Both Pi Wan and Jiang Cheng had no issues with this.


    When he heard the story between Pi Wan and his girlfriend, Fatty couldnt help himself and wanted to console the man, but he was shot a gaze by Jiang Cheng. Fatty silently swallowed his words back.


    Doctor Jiang, Pi Wan was finally tired. As he rubbed the middle of his brows, he sighed, Thats the overall situation. My girlfriend suspects that I have an ulterior motive to be with her.


    Jiang Cheng closed the notebook and slid his pen into the spine.


    Doctor Jiang, please help me with my girlfriend. He stood up and asked Jiang Cheng sincerely, I beg you.


    Jiang Cheng nodded. Of course. Its my job.


    Pi Wan left with a heavy sigh.


    Once he left, Fatty leaned over, Doctor. The man is not bad. Even though hes rather forward, he is very concerned about his girlfriend. I wonder why his girlfriend would think he has an ulterior motive to be with her.


    Jiang Cheng pulled open the drawer and ced the notebook inside it. Is that what you think?


    Fatty blinked in confusion. Doctor, what do you mean?


    Jiang Cheng signalled Fatty to be quiet. A few secondster, the door opened again. Pi Wan strode in and said with apology, Doctor Jiang, my memory is getting worse. I almost forgot the most important thing. Its my girlfriends 80th birthday the day after tomorrow. You have toe!


    Jiang Cheng said evenly, Congrattions. Ill be there.


    After he got the answer, Pi Wan left happily. Fattys mouth was an O.


    When the door opened, Fatty noticed there was a young woman outside the door. She had on a white shirt, ck shirt and a pair of ck-rimmed ss. She was intellectual and sexy. After Pi Wan exited the door, he habitually put his arms around the womans waist and they left whileughing.


    Fatty silently picked up his shattered worldview. Jiang Cheng put away the files on the table and arranged them on the shelves. When he turned back, he saw Fatty was still staring at the door. A blue Audi zoomed away.


    What are you looking at? Jiang Cheng asked.


    Doctor, Fatty suddenly said, I dont want to work so hard anymore. I feel like his joy is very simple.


    Jiang Cheng thought about it and turned back to the shelf. He pulled out a few more notebooks with a few redbels. He opened one and turned to Fatty. He ced the rest under his armpit. Zhao Guiqin, He recited, An entrepreneur with nine bungalows and endless branded cars under her name. She is worth more than billions. She is currently 89 He lifted his head to look at Fatty, And single.


    Fattys lips trembled like he wanted to say something.


    Jiang Cheng nodded with understanding and then pulled out another note, Liu Niuma, andy with more than ten apartments. Shes 77 and also single. He put down the note and told Fatty seriously, She sounds young, but she has a serious illness. Plus, she has no next of kin.


    Fatty took a deep breath and said determinedly, Doctor, I think Im still young, and I can still make something of myself.


    Jiang Cheng tutted and put his notes away with some regret.


    Fatty followed Jiang Cheng and asked with confusion, Doctor, how did you get these peoples information? Are they your patients?


    I suppose so, Jiang Cheng shrugged.


    What illness do they have?


    Jiang Cheng looked at Fatty and said clearly, They are lonely and cold at night.


    Fatty shivered. Then, his eyes widened like he realised something, Was it you who introduced Pi Wan to his current girlfriend?


    Jiang Cheng scratched his nose with embarrassment. Thats my job as a doctor. I am very happy, seeing the smiles finally returning to their faces.


    Fatty, Doctor, tell me honestly. How much money youve taken from the richdies?


    Jiang Cheng ignored him and went upstairs alone. He was busy with something mysterious. Fatty calcted the time. The stew would need another hour before it was ready. He washed the greens he bought and peeled the potatoes and yams. He decided to stir-fry some shredded potatoes.
