Chapter 232: Treatment Began

Tang Xi rushed to the gate of the school as quickly as possible. When Ning Ke caught up with her, she had got in a black luxury car that had already sped away.

Ning Ke looked on in disappointment at the direction in which Tang Xi left and walked towards his family’s car. He opened the door only to see his third brother looking at him mockingly. He frowned and asked sullenly, “Why is it you? Why not our usual driver?”

Ning Yan looked at the disappearing car, pursed his lips and started the car. He glanced at his brother and said coldly, “Do you think I volunteered to come to pick you up? Mom made me! I’m so busy…”

“I didn’t ask you to pick me up.” Ning Ke indifferently put his bag on the back seat, fastened the seat belt and closed his eyes for a nap.

Ning Yan looked at him and snorted. He could see how disappointed he looked just now. Although he didn’t mind letting him learn a lesson, he was his brother anyway. If he didn’t remind this silly boy, his heart would be broken and then Mom would be sad.

With this in mind, Ning Yan pursed his lips as he said, “That Xiao Rou is not the right girl for you. She is nearly ten years older than you. You’d better forget about her and concentrate on studying. Do you hear me?”

“Nope.” Ning Ke answered, not even opening his eyes.

Ning Yan frowned and said seriously, “If you don’t take my advice, don’t cry in front of me when your heart is broken! What makes you think Xiao Rou will fall for you… a little boy? She takes you as her younger brother at most.”

“That’s enough!” Ning Ke suddenly opened his eyes and glared at Ning Yan. “Save your “advices” for the female stars. Leave me alone! I don’t want to star in your movie anyway!”

“You brat!” Ning Yan gritted his teeth as he said, “Don’t cry to me when you suffer a blow!”

“I won’t!”

…

On this side, Tang Xi had been panting since she got in the car. Qiao Liang frowned when he saw her exhausted and asked with tenderness, “What happened? Why did you run so fast?”

Tang Xi opened up her mouth to catch her breath, saying, “Nothing. A little boy who’s a fan of me wanted to send me home, so I ran a bit faster than usual.”

Qiao Liang frowned and turned to look at her. “A little fan boy?”

Tang Xi turned his head around and let him look straight ahead, saying seriously, “I’ve nipped his love in the bud. Don’t worry. Did you go home to rest today?”

Qiao Liang glanced at her and turned to drive, saying, “Umm, I took a nap after lunch.”

Tang Xi smiled happily. “I’ll stay with you this evening. And I’ll acupuncture Aunt Qiao after you fall asleep. I’ll try to help her stand up again.”

Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi. Tang Xi turned his head around, but he turned to look at her again. “Xixi…”

Tang Xi looked straight ahead and flushed as she said, “Alas, I know I’m charming, but I’m also shy. And I’ll be shyer when you look at me like this!”

Qiao Liang gazed at her face and raised his eyebrows. He found that Xixi, after coming back to life again, became different from before. She suddenly mastered many skills that she didn’t have before.

Tang Xi glanced at Qiao Liang from the corner of her eyes and the smile on her face faded. She knew Qiao Liang would be in doubt, but she couldn’t tell Qiao Liang about the existence of 008, because that would be too shocking for him! She quickly accepted the existence of 008 at that time, because she had died once and was eager to take any help, but Qiao Liang was different. It had reached his limit to accept the rebirth of her. He wouldn’t be able to accept that fact that she had an omnipotent system.

Both of them didn’t speak on the way to Qiao Liang’s home. As soon as Tang Xi got out of the car, she saw Qiao Yuxin and the butler waiting for them at the gate of the house. Tang Xi quickly rushed over and hugged Qiao Yuxin who was in a wheelchair. Qiao Yuxin looked at Tang Xi gladly, “Good. You seem to have recovered. Having more flesh on your face, you look even prettier. That’s great.”

Tang Xi also looked at Qiao Yuxin up and down, saying, “Yes, and you seem in a good mood too. You must be doing well recently. It seems that it’s good for your health for Ah Liang to return home.”

Qiao Yuxin smiled at her and said, “I’ve always been like this. You’re just trying to make me happy, right? But…” Qiao Yuxin looked at Qiao Liang with a smile as she said, “But you are right. I’ll be very happy every time Ah Liang comes back home.”

Tang Xi chuckled and pushed her wheelchair into the house with Qiao Liang. Qiao Yuxin said, “I have seafood prepared for you. What do you want to eat?”

“Abalone! Clam!” Tang Xi looked at Qiao Liang and laughed. “And shrimp in scallion sauce!”

Qiao Liang smiled. “Then you chat with Mom here. I’m going to cook you shrimp in scallion sauce.”

Tang Xi smiled and pushed Qiao Yuxin’s wheelchair towards the lawn. She then stopped the wheelchair and sat down on the lawn beside Qiao Yuxin. Looking up at her, she said softly, “Aunt Qiao, I’ll give you acupuncture and massage from today on. Let me help you stand up again, okay?”

When Qiao Yuxin heard Qiao Liang said Xiao Rou would come today, she was thinking, “Did she come over to give her a massage? Is he going to try to make her stand up again? But now she was hesitant. Could she really stand up again? Could she still walk confidently in her favorite shoes?”

Qiao Yuxin looked at Tang Xi blankly. “Rourou, can I really stand up again?”

Tang Xi’s heart jerked sharply when she heard her uncertain tone. In fact, Aunt Qiao wanted to stand up. She just dared not believe she could stand up again, or feared that she couldn’t even if she tried, so she had been refusing to think about it…

She took Qiao Yuxin’s hand and said gently yet firmly, “Yes, Aunt. As long as you want to, you can stand up again. I’ll help you. Even if the muscle on your legs have atrophied, I can still make you stand up. Besides, your legs were well cared for in the last five years, so the muscle hasn’t atrophied at all. I assure you that you can stand up again. Please trust me, okay?”

Seeing Tang Xi being so confident, Qiao Yuxin couldn’t help nodding. “Okay, I trust you.”

Tang Xi smiled, pushed Qiao Yuxin in the wheelchair back to the villa and took her to her room. She helped Qiao Yuxin lie on the bed and took silver needles to acupuncture her. “Aunt, I’ll stimulate your acupoints first and then give you a massage. You’ll recover soon and then you’ll be able to walk again.”
