Chapter 2, I almost forgot you

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Peiyang quietly spoke into the intercom, conversing with a colleague on the other end, only to be teased, "I know you are well-versed in matters of the heart, having left the ranks of the single, and are now in the bliss of newlywed life"

In this day and age, it is truly difficult to be a bodyguard and assistant at the same time; he must definitely apply for a salary adjustment when he turns back!

After completing all the medical examinations, Ye Shen buttoned up his coat and walked out. As he walked through the corridor, he happened to hear a lively inquiry: "Dr. Zhao! How is Miss Cheng on the top floor doing today?"

The girl on the hospital bed, with several white tubes inserted into the back of her hand, breathes quietly. Ye Shenxun, standing behind the glass, examines her docility inch by inch, suddenly feeling a sense of strangeness. It is somewhat amusing.

The bodyguard over there let out a mocking laugh, but fearing that the boss might hear, quickly turned off the communicator, leaving Peiyang to face the unpredictable Ye Shenxun all alone.

The old man usually speaks bluntly when scolding others; he would only beat around the bush if he were truly angry. Ye Shenxun immediately recognized the situation and admitted his mistake, saying, "If there is any inappropriate behavior on my part, please make it clear. Don't let it affect your health."

It is good that I am asleep, Liu Dazhuang thought, my quiet appearance is indeed much more pleasing than my noisy demeanor

Senior brother, senior brother! It hurts!

As Sheng Shan spoke, he exchanged a knowing glance with Zhou Yin. Liu Dazhuang immediately felt defeated, realizing that the highest realm of tormenting couples did not require any words at all

Indeed, she previously mentioned that the person lying here is a friend, but she simply did not disclose the friend's name. Strictly speaking, it cannot be considered deception.

The man who paced to the window casually picked up a cigarette, not lighting it, merely holding it between his lips to taste it, while observing the plum blossoms below gradually withering, "I understand, you are in a difficult situation"

Guo Xiang was captivated by Yang Guo's unparalleled chivalrous spirit and was gifted a display of earthly fireworks, which led her to fall in love. However, the good-natured classmate, who had never been in a romantic relationship, was startled by Liu Dazhuang's straightforward exclamation of "Mom!", causing her heart to race. From that moment on, she willingly became his informant and took great care of me.

As the speech concluded, he lifted his foot and headed towards the elevator, pressing the button for the top floor. In that moment, Peiyang felt an overwhelming desire to die

The man scoffed, "What kind of request is this? Is it necessary for me to step in for something as trivial as a few words from Zhou Yin?" Sheng Shan tilted his head slightly, "I didn't mean for you to step in, just wanted to inform you. After all, you just returned, and it's a good opportunity to meet with your senior brother."

So what should we do now? Are we really going to transfer to another hospital? I am afraid my family member Cheng cannot endure this kind of turmoil

Whether it is important or not, your decision does not count

The old gentleman has never been fond of small animals; when did he have the leisure and interest to raise fish?

He left without looking back, his departure resonating with conviction

It is my idea, unrelated to her

But how does one say it? When things reach their extreme, they will turn. A good lady being overly attentive is not necessarily a good thing

As the conversation began, Peiyang couldn't help but sigh, "Ah, don't even mention it. It's fine before marriage, but once you get married, all the kindness and generosity of women turn into mere illusions. They start asking for cars, houses, and carat diamond rings; a disagreement and they want a new handbag."

He specifically targeted the soft spot, and Sheng Shan couldn't help but shudder. Zhou Yin frowned and said, "Don't go too far." The man laughed outright, "You should have seen something even more excessive."

This time it is for a friend. She is ill, suffering from a bacterial infection, and is currently under observation at your facility. I would like to arrange for her to be moved to the best sterile room available

After many years of partnership, whenever Ye Shenxun displays such a smile, significant events are bound to occur. Fearing that Sheng Shan might be implicated, Zhou Yin took a step back, asking, "What exactly do you want?"

That being said, Peiyang's legs became even weaker. "No, I am not in any trouble. That spendthrift woman at home, what does she want with diamond rings and cars? I will immediately transfer this month's surplus salary back to the old house's account." As he spoke, he was about to take action, but was stopped.

A good lady comes from an ordinary family; her parents run a small shop nearby, selling noodles

Mr. Ye, President Zhou has instructed that, apart from him and Miss Sheng, no one else is allowed to approach this hospital room

The backbone of the team, Zhou Yin, finally spoke, and everyone turned to look at the savior, "Although Shen Xun is relatively difficult to deal with, there is someone even more challenging than him."

Yet when her heart turns ruthless, it is no less formidable

Ye Shen looked at Sheng Shan with suspicion and said, "Apart from Zhou Yin, Miss Sheng actually has other friends?" She immediately revealed a harmless smile and vaguely replied, "One drifts in the rivers and lakes; it is always wise to cultivate good relationships." He raised his thick eyebrows and chose not to comment further

In the entire Ye family, only you and your father have never caused me any worry since childhood. Now that you both have grown wings and possess extraordinary abilities, you walk arrogantly before anyone. Even if there were truly any inappropriate actions, would there still be time for me to intervene? Unless some people are simply throwing themselves into the net.

Liu Dazhuang is still being tsundere, "My dad has a rule that I am not allowed to date before the age of twenty-five"

Dear Grandfather

Ye Shenxun's pupils darkened, and the breath that had been held in his throat for a long time was finally released, "No matter how many tricks Sun Wukong has, he still cannot escape from the Five Finger Mountain of Buddha."

On this day, there are no remedies or stones that can alleviate the longing of the human heart

As Ye Shenxun walked away, Sheng Shan was so enraged that his whole body trembled, nearly throwing a ceramic potted plant at the end of the corridor directly at that cold-hearted fellow's head

In the midst of it all, the man's fingertips accidentally brushed against the CD play button, and a mournful melody seeped out, merging with the boundless night.

The transformation that the whole world has witnessed. A sincerity that has not been experienced for twenty-eight years. Yet she discarded it as if it were worthless.

Though the words were kind, the old man with white hair and a long beard scattered seeds in anger, saying, "Do you really think I am foolish? Using tricks meant for outsiders to deal with those at home is even worse than treating them like animals" After speaking, he turned and left

"You haven't returned and it's already bothering me. Are you coming back? Or should you just fend for yourself?"

I still remember that day, just before leaving, Ye Shenxun could not help but ask, "But why are you so proactive about her matters?" He had guessed that Zhou Yin would seek help, but he did not expect the speed at which the reinforcements arrived to be much faster than he had imagined

In his apartment, he also kept a paradise fish, its body color vibrant, and its tail resembling a sheer silk garment. Every morning upon waking, Peiyang could see that the first thing the boss did was to feed it

Pei Yang was taken aback.

Now, on the three hundred and ninety-seventh day since her departure, he chose to destroy "himself" in this manner, severing his heart.

He grasped the handrail and, after a few seconds of mental calculation, said, "No need, it's a dying thing, it's ominous"

He knows that dealing with you is not a matter of a day or two, and the quickest way to achieve the goal is to empty the entire hospital

The result of flattery has landed on the horse's leg, and Ye Shenxun narrowed his eyes slightly: "If I want to be classified as a smart person, then I must reduce my IQ by seventy points"

Seeing Zhou Yin's persistence, Ye Shen's expression grew increasingly anxious. Firstly, he loathed the people around him, who had unknowingly become her allies. Secondly, he despised himself for standing here and saying so much; it was truly pathetic, he could have just sent them away directly.

That young lady, sigh...

Each label affixed to Ye Shenxun is perfectly appropriate

It cannot be concealed, so there was no intention to hide it. Sheng Shan moved a little closer, his pupils shining brightly, and got straight to the point

Peiyang looked up, and the man in his sight was stylish and elegant, basking in the slightly tipsy sunlight. The fragrant aroma of the wood at the dining table, along with the brightness, subtly encroached upon his brows and eyes. Not far away, the dark curtains still hung down, casting shadows that accentuated the man's features, making him appear even more three-dimensional, rendering him utterly captivating.

Sheng Shan has disappeared, and the official narrative is that he went abroad for further studies, in order to prevent any malicious individuals from digging deeper. When encountering some sensitive young reporters, Zhou Yin also tidies up the aftermath. Now that Qian Jin has returned, it is only proper to announce it to the world

Ye Shenxun sneered, "Miss Sheng is very intelligent."

During this period, Zhou Yin advised Liu Dazhuang not to spend all his time at the hospital, as encountering acquaintances could raise suspicions. However, Liu Wei was not at ease and secretly added the little nurse as a friend, asking her to be his eyes.

A cold light flashed by, and Peiyang immediately changed his tone, "Are you saying that you were severely scolded by the old master and had no choice but to submit?" Ye Shenxun was holding the car door, seemingly still unsatisfied, "If I say that, would they look down on me?"

Mom, Dad didn't say anything, look how nervous you are!

Liu Dazhuang had been listening for a long time, absorbing the atmosphere. Halfway through a bowl of noodles, he felt the taste was lacking and exclaimed: "Mom! Where's the salt?"

Previously, I mentioned that I don't know when exactly my health started to deteriorate compared to before. The same goes for Ye Shenxun.

Today I encountered an old friend of ours / She mentioned you / I did not know what to say

After the incident, it was heard that Sheng Shan had actually sought out Ye Shen to fall into the trap himself. Liu Dazhuang was so furious that he wished he could jump down from the twenty-eighth floor, while Sheng Shan remained indifferent.

I almost forgot about you.

As dusk was settling in, Ye Shenxun received a call from the old residence, requesting him to return for dinner. "The old master specifically asked for you to come home; he doesn't seem to be in a very good mood," the servant who made the call discreetly reminded him.

Isn't the fish in that tank also taken away

The reason lyrics resonate deeply is that the suffering of the entire world is largely similar. Some individuals may stand out, yet they are merely mortal beings.

Peiyang was taken aback, "Are you willing to go back?"

The newcomer seemed to have made a determination, as the anger in his eyes was stirred up by a high wave. "Get lost. I never look at the owner when I beat a dog." The leading man remained steadfast, not moving an inch.

What a joke, he even personally killed the once foolish "self" and now still cares about her well-being

One day, Liu Dazhuang went to eat noodles and happened to overhear a good lady's mother scolding her daughter, saying that at the age of twenty-two, she was at the age for dating and should not spend all her time buried in books. "A woman's lifelong major concern is marriage, not a career"

Ye Shenxun suddenly turned around, intending to question Peiyang, but where was that guy's shadow?

As he approached, that vividly colored little paradise seemed to still recognize him, unexpectedly abandoning its new master who held the bait, and swam towards Ye Shenxun, wagging its tail.

But does he really want to perform for others, or for himself

By now / I thought I had almost forgotten you / and that I was close to shaking off the sorrowful feelings

The good lady beside them became unhappy and weakly said, "I am the one from your family."

hospital

Although she brought honor to her family by securing a place in the nursing program at the University of California and graduating with excellent grades, she was experiencing such a situation for the first time, feeling somewhat bewildered in life, a young girl who had not yet fully matured.

Among the entire Ye family, Ye Shenxun was the least beaten. His father was the third in line, and by the time he was born, Ye Shunshan's strength for discipline had been exhausted, leaving only favoritism for this legitimate grandson. Of course, this was also due to his exceptional ability to exploit loopholes, knowing where everyone's bottom line lay, making him the most similar to Ye Shunshan. This directly resulted in overshadowing the brilliance of others; despite being of a younger generation, he earned the title of Young Master in the community.

For instance, at the moment when she rushed to the attending physician's office three times a day to inquire about my condition, she unexpectedly ran into Ye Shenxun

Ye Shenxun's gaze flickered, and he chose silence over a response. He slowly moved and headed towards the bedroom on the second floor. Just as he was about to reach the end, Peiyang recalled something and called out to him

With an exclamation, he loosened his grip, pushing the elegantly dressed girl half a meter away. "Last time you called me senior brother to vent your anger on Zhou, causing Zhou's family to lose half of their territory. What trick do you want to play this time?"

Liu Dazhuang rushed over upon receiving the news, still out of breath, but he distinctly heard the words "deal with" and his eyelids twitched

When Cheng Gaigai initially presented the gift, it was mentioned that paradise fish possess a strong memory. When a new fish appears in their territory, they will curiously swim around, observing the unfamiliar neighbor, until they lose interest. If the paradise fish encounters the new fish a second time, they will quickly recognize each other as old acquaintances and lose the desire to explore. Experiments have shown that this memory can last for at least three months, with some even lasting up to six months.

Hey, Mom, don't touch me, poking my forehead can easily hit a nerve...

What?

The well-mannered lady turned her head and saw the legendary figure, her face filled with an expression of anxiety and unease. Sensing the situation was not right, Peiyang quickly approached, deliberately emphasizing his tone: "Yes, Chen! The young lady from the Sheng family has a friend in Wangcheng; she mentioned she would inform you. Since General Zhou is busy, I took the liberty of arranging the sterile room first."

A good young lady has no experience in romantic relationships and has not been particularly interested in men before. She constantly reassures her mother, "Mom, you and Dad should focus on running the noodle stall well; I know how to handle my own matters."

During this period, the Sheng family held a welcoming banquet

No, I just want her to leave.

There may be a way.

Heavenly fish.

If I were awake, I would definitely criticize Liu Dazhuang: Nonsense, having grown up, do you think you can fool me?

额, 实话实说?

Too ruthless.

The biannual health check-ups have now turned into visits to the hospital every three months. I have quit smoking and drinking. The ambition to socialize until dawn is no more. I now go to bed early and rise early each day, jogging in the garden to increase my lung capacity. ... All of this ... is thanks to me.

She exchanged glances with Peiyang, conveying the meaning of "My goodness, why didn't you stop him?" Peiyang protested with his eyes, "Have you ever heard of a servant being able to stop their master?" Sheng Shan pretended to be calm, silently pressing the shortcut key 1 on her phone in her bag to dial Zhou Yin's number, and deliberately said loudly, "What a coincidence, Senior Brother, you also came to visit my friend?" intending for him to come quickly to save the situation

Seemingly flawless rhetoric, but there was a thin layer of sweat on Peiyang's back.

It is said that one glimpse of Yang Guo can lead to a lifetime of mistakes.

Walk with me to walk the dog. The person in the shadow suddenly spoke.

Bodyguards in the industry all know that when taking on such difficult tasks, getting beaten up is already the lightest punishment. Fortunately, before Ye Shen could make a move, the elevator made a sound and opened. Sheng Shan walked out gracefully from inside, causing a momentary glitch in the scene.

Tsk tsk, did I guess it right? No matter how harshly one speaks, they can't truly let go in their heart.

In order to bring her back to his side, he had a car accident and lay in the operating room in a critical condition. However, she wholeheartedly searched for his whereabouts. Because of this innocent face, he suffered from injuries all over his body. When he woke up, he learned that she was already on a plane to find Wei Guangyin.

How ridiculous?

Be careful. He turned his head and ordered Pei Yang, "Contact all the doctors and nurses who have been to Wangcheng, as well as those who are currently in charge of her, and have them all come."

Although knowing about Young Master Ye's methods, Sheng Shan couldn't hold back and spoke out, "Are you aware of her situation? If it weren't absolutely necessary, we wouldn't have taken the risk to come here. Now, removing the doctors and equipment to another place would practically be a death sentence for her!"

He was talking non-stop, completely unaware that the person at the side had already finished feeding the fish. He gradually approached and at a critical moment, he said something.

In a moment, Peiyang suddenly realized and raised his hand in submission, "Boss, I didn't intend to monitor you. I merely disclosed your daily schedule to the old man, and it was under duress."

He's almost worn himself out to death. If he doesn't show his face, should we prepare to collect his body again? The car accident a year and a half ago still haunts everyone in the Ye family.

That's right, his sincerity is not to drive away Cheng Gaigai, but to pretend and give himself a way out.

To die

Ye Shenshen laughed in anger, crossed his hands and faced him, "Okay, good. The love between us is deep. I wonder if you were also so deeply in love when you proposed to other women?"

Pu.

Oh, must the observation be so keen as to discover that he was eavesdropping on the conversation between the grandfather and grandson. Naturally, he also learned of Ye Shenxun's true feelings

The fish was given by that girl, whom she happened to encounter on the street. The first image that flashed in her mind was his face, so she bought it and gifted it.

Upon seeing him appear, Sheng Shan quickly ran over to seek protection. As that person's gaze pierced through like a sword, Zhou Yin defensively pulled Sheng Shan behind him

In a state of confusion, I felt my heart rate returning to normal, yet I remained unable to awaken

Do you think that someone suddenly appearing in your territory would go unnoticed? If he had been informed in advance of this person's existence, he would have lost interest in pursuing the matter, which also makes it convenient for me to pay a visit

Meanwhile, under the cover of night, Ye Shenxun got into the car, started the engine, but hesitated to press the accelerator, staring blankly at the steering wheel, frozen in a picture of solitude

You will find that after seeking pleasure and returning

Ye Shenxun lost his patience, his tone turning icy: "Friends? Think carefully before making such a statement. Her friends are all my enemies." Zhou Yin insisted, "I don't care. In any case, she cannot leave."

His grandfather has arrived

Ye Shenxun took two long strides to catch up, strolling leisurely around the courtyard, listening to the gentle voice of Ye Shunshan coming from afar

The little girl is quite bothersome, as it has been said, I am currently observing, observing.

Go ahead. This time there was no hesitation

She does not seek these, will she still want you

She once drew her sword against Wei Guangyin, declaring that their bond was irrevocably severed. Yet now, she lies in his place, so naturally, as if he would still accept everything she offered, both good and bad, just as he did before

As soon as this was mentioned, it was as if a sudden enlightenment had struck. "That's right. He has always been the king among our group of children since he was little, until later—" Liu Dazhuang, no longer discussing his romantic feelings with the good lady, was surrounded by curious onlookers who eagerly asked, "What happened later?"

Upon hearing the voice of Miss Cheng, Ye Shenxun's steps came to an abrupt halt. He raised his eyes to look inside and inquired at the entrance, "Cheng?"

The little nurse was the one who followed Zhou Yin to Wangcheng, and she was terrified by the words "She must live"

Out of curiosity, Ye Shenxun approached, leaned in to take a look, and saw that in the spacious pond, there was only one small fish. He would never mistake it, for it was indeed the paradise fish that Cheng Gaigai had given him.

Do you remember when that girl jokingly said this is the Ye Shenxun of the animal kingdom while giving a gift, because she reached her hand into the water to tease, only to be bitten by a fish lurking behind the duckweed, "The slyness is simply identical!"

The cool air from Peiyang is being drawn in, "Are you planning to open the entire Infectious Diseases Department and Respiratory Department?"

Mother, his father's company still relies on the big tree that is Ye Shenxun. It should be noted that he is also involved in the plan, and it is likely that he will not be as lenient as he was with Zhou Yin and Sheng Shan

Zhou Yin said: "Regardless of your relationship with Cheng Gaigai, at the very least, she is still my friend"

Ye Shunshan, the elder of the Ye family, fought bravely on the front lines in his youth. After the liberation, he transitioned to the business world and later served as a representative in the National People's Congress. With over fifty years of military experience, he has long mastered the skill of keeping his anger in check. However, in ordinary times, he exhibits a bit of a playful old man demeanor, enjoying jokes with the younger generation and refusing to acknowledge his age, even going so far as to travel halfway around the world to skydive. Nevertheless, he has also been serious when necessary. His weapon of choice was a riding whip wrapped in layers of shotgun shells, and despite the opponent's relentless attacks, he could make them cry for their parents in an instant.

Upon witnessing this, Ye Shunshan snorted, "A beast is just a beast. Regardless of whether it is fed good food or poison, it will eagerly swallow it down, remembering the kindness of humans, and any grievances will only be swallowed in silence"

During the time when the two of them were still living together in the apartment, Cheng Gaigai, feeling bored, read a novel. When she came across a part where the male protagonist abandoned his fiancée to seek the embrace of a wealthy girl, she resentfully uttered four words: "A heart as hard as iron"

As spring arrives, Ye Shunshan dons a light garment and goes to the pond to feed the fish, where he encounters Ye Shen upon entering the arch bridge

Ye Shenxun smiled absentmindedly for a moment, while Peiyang couldn't help but twitch for a few seconds, looking around the room: "You don't have a dog, do you..."

Following Ye Shenxun out of the house, Peiyang did not dare to breathe, remaining in a state of constant vigilance, fearing that he might be thrown over the shoulder if he was not careful. Strangely, this time Ye Shenxun did not question him exclusively, nor did he even express any reproach. Just before getting into the car, he suddenly asked him: "How do you plan to respond to Zhou Yin?"

I heard that you have been back for quite some time / I try my best to hold back my tears

The two exchanged flirtatious banter back and forth, and for some reason, Sheng Shan truly hoped that Cheng Gai Gai was awake at this moment to silence Liu Da Zhuang's mouth

Ye Shenxun arrived very late and was attacked in the dimly lit entrance of the residence. A sudden blow came at his face, and he swiftly dodged, twisting the attacker's arm in the process, his eyes filled with murderous intent

He knew that Zhou Yin's thoughts were no less than his own, and he would certainly think of asking Ye Shunshan to intervene. In this way, his decision to let go became a natural course of action, and he appeared cold-blooded in front of others, demonstrating that he had no lingering attachment to Cheng Gaigai. After all, if he truly wanted to do something, it would be impossible for anyone to stop him. Therefore, even Zhou Yin occasionally found it difficult to gauge his attitude and could not take charge of him.

In the past, Lian Peiyang privately enjoyed joking with other bodyguards, saying, "Our boss has no principles in front of Cheng Gaigai"

Then, the air became still

The man did not respond, but stared at him intently, as if to say, "Isn't there one right in front of me?"

At this point, Sheng Shan, in a spirit of resignation, spread her arms and said, "OK, she lives here, there is nothing to hide. But I have heard that President Ye has long declared a clear boundary with my friend. If that is the case, who exactly is residing in the hospital room is not that important, is it?"

Having been classmates for many years and having conspired together for power, could he really turn against himself? Moreover, given Ye Shenxun's current physical condition, he may not even be his match.

Then why are you still not awake

Zhou Yin must have thought this way as well, which is why he fabricated a false identity document for me to use later. Even if Ye Shenxun were to investigate, he would not be able to uncover the truth

At first, Peiyang did not understand, but after he left, she approached the fish tank to take a closer look and discovered that what Ye Shenxun had been feeding was not fish bait at all, but rather sleeping powder.

He spoke decisively, "How one comes and how one goes." In the end, he added, "I do not care how other hospitals operate, but in my place, idle people are not welcome.

The little trinket, which should have met its end, is more lively than the moments spent in the apartment, eagerly gazing at the bait in its new owner's hand, wishing it could leap over the dragon gate.

Recalling the past, the fists of the person outside the floor-to-ceiling window clenched suddenly. Zhou Yin hurriedly arrived, and among the two, the young master confronted him in the corridor filled with the strong smell of disinfectant, the scene was strange yet visually appealing

Having spoken, he crossed over to her and approached the floor-to-ceiling window, with no one to stop him

You are also somewhat of a medical student, yet you ask such naive questions? Her situation is special; the bacterial clearance cannot be completed in a short time. There is an anesthetic dosage in the IV drip every day to facilitate wound cleaning, and she will wake up.

Just say it! Their boss has no principles when it comes to that person named Cheng Gaigai! They simply cannot let go! If the entire hospital were to be opened, and her illness were delayed, it would be themselves who would suffer the consequences! They are so clever! A conscience in the assistant industry!

At first, during the self-introduction, Liu Dazhuang misheard and said, "What? A good lady?" Thus, he stubbornly bestowed this nickname upon her

Ye Shenxun continued to fiddle with his cufflinks, half in doubt, "Suddenly, I caught a whiff of a conspiracy." Peiyang raised his voice in an exaggerated manner, his expression dramatic, "How is that possible?! You are so clever, who would dare to conspire against you!"

His voice was light and airy, yet his gaze remained fixed in the direction of the courtyard. "Let's find a time to move everything back to the old house."

The top floor has only one hospital room, yet it is guarded by members of the Zhou family. The one in charge immediately recognized Ye Shenxun, and instead of yielding, he became more vigilant, leading others to block his path.

Ye Shenxun's luggage had not yet been completely moved back to the old residence; after this, Ye Shunshan unexpectedly ordered someone to pack up all his belongings and throw them back to the apartment

Between him and Cheng Gaigai, they had long lost the qualification to greet each other at the moment he was dying. She has left and should not return, even less should she appear in such a vulnerable manner, not even giving him the opportunity to question her

No need.

Exceptional memory. Combative. Prefers the shade. Skilled at hiding.

After going around in a circle, the two had returned to the pond. Ye Shunshan used the mast to push aside the large duckweed, revealing its beautiful attire, and then silently stared at the fish, scolding: "Beast, I am not doing this for anyone else, but for you"

The urban schemes are quite intricate, and Liu Dazhuang wants to take me back to the countryside. However, even if he wants to pack up and return to the countryside now, there are likely people who would be unwilling. That would be the little nurse, Hao Shumin

Otherwise, are we to say that those individuals were indeed dismissed and then brought back by the old master
