Volume 1 Chapter 121
In the following time, Coreylin asked Fang Mo Nan some questions about nutrition. The poor parents' hearts were detailed in their inquiries. Unbeknownst to them, an hour passed and Jeremy woke up and drank another bowl of millet porridge without vomiting or diarrhea. The couple finally put down their worries a bit. They agreed that Fang Mo Nan would come back for a follow-up examination three days later. The butler sent them off and they stayed at the most luxurious Hilton Hotel here.
Sitting in the luxurious suite, Fang Mo Nan joked: "Teacher Jerry, this treatment upgrade is quite fast."
Jerry held out his hands and shrugged, smiling: "Don't worry about it, they've been to many doctors for their child's illness."
"That's just a minor illness. If you eat too much, you'll vomit and have diarrhea. Once you've thrown up and finished going to the bathroom, taking some medicine to aid digestion will make you feel better."
"Yes! What you said makes sense. The more we treat the disease, the worse it gets." Jerry sighed, "We can't find the cause, and we'll never be able to cure it from the root."
"Wow!" Jerry glanced at his watch, "It's already noon so quickly, let's go to the cafeteria for lunch first."
Two people just arrived at the restaurant and were led to a luxurious private room, French cuisine, must-have famous delicacies are foie gras, it is one of the three treasures of food along with black truffles and caviar. There's also French toast, walnut chicken soup, tuna salad with caviar, red snapper with Hokkaido premium scallop truffle sauce, Paris lobster, tomato basil halibut, tomato juice spaghetti, dry red wine, dry white wine, caramelized apple walnut dessert cup.
"Can you finish so much?" Jerry said with a smile, "With your big appetite, you can definitely finish it. No one has a better appetite than yours."
Soothing music, what a luxurious enjoyment. Although one of the three major culinary kingdoms in the world of French cuisine, it still can't compare to Chinese cuisine. But occasionally it's not bad either. After finishing lunch, they rarely didn't have the annoying hospital phone calls, so the two decided to return to their rooms and take a good nap.
Fang Mengnan had just entered the space for more than an hour when he was driven out of the space by a annoying phone call. So the tone of answering the phone was not very good, "Hello! Who is it?"
"The receptionist said, 'Respected miss, there is a man in the lobby who claims to be your brother.'"
"Who, who did you say?" Fang Mo Nan asked, "Brother", why does everyone call her brother. Then a faint male voice was heard on the phone. "I am Cheng Shi Xi." Afraid that she would forget who he is, he shouted again: "Cheng Shi Gui's elder paternal cousin... wait for rescue..."
"Oh!" Fang Mo Nan said: "Let him come up!" muttering to himself how he found her.
Soon the doorbell rang, Fang Mo Nan opened the door and saw Cheng Shi Xi leaning against the door frame with a lazy look on his face, smiling at her.
Fang Mo Nan turned around and walked back inside, he also followed him in.
Fang Mo Nan sat down on the sofa, raised an eyebrow and asked: "Speak! What's going on?"
As soon as she asked a serious question, the smile on Cheng Shixi's face also fell. "Baby, do you still remember what you said when you left? You said that there was a package to cure all diseases, so I came here hoping you could see my friend."
"Let's go!" said Fang Muer, putting on his coat and tying up his hair in a ponytail. He shouldered his medical bag and they set off. First, they went to Jerry's room, but no one answered the door even after ringing the bell for half a day. Finally, they left a note at the front desk.
Cheng Shixi opened the door of the iron-clad off-road vehicle and invited Fang Mornan to get into the passenger seat. Fang Mornan asked, "This is a Land Rover off-road vehicle, where are we going? Is it far?"
"Go to San Francisco." Cheng Shixi sat in the driver's seat, and with a 'whoosh', the car sped off.
"So far away, over 400 kilometers." Fang Mo Nan muttered to himself.
"Yes! That's why I came overland." Cheng Shixi said with a smile, then turned on the car stereo and beautiful classical music floated out.
Out of the city, the car is fast and stable, showing its good performance. After all, Land Rover is one of the world's top high-end luxury off-road vehicles, its excellent off-road performance is like a tiger just down from the mountain.
The car soon began to enter the mountainous area. The scenery became more and more desolate, similar to what was seen on the way to Las Vegas. The car kept climbing, without knowing how high the mountain was or how long the mountain road was, anyway, the eardrum appeared to be dizzy, as if it were taking off or landing like an airplane.
It's not yet the season of spring warmth and blooming flowers, but the entire mountain is covered with withered yellow wild grass that has fallen to the ground. The wild grass is a single color, and from a distance, it looks neat and tidy, like a piece of extremely smooth fur, fine and soft. As I continue on my way, the scenery begins to change. On those smooth and fine slopes of withered grass, there are many short trees scattered about in an irregular pattern, like dark brown flowers embroidered on yellow satin, or like the shadows of clouds cast on the golden hills. The entire mountain landscape looks like a simple yet profound traditional Chinese painting. It's truly a magical sight! Fang Mernan gazes at it with some enchantment.
The car turned over the big mountain, and a vast plain gradually unfolded before our eyes. On the left side of the car, there was always a row of distant mountains closely following, while in front and to the right, it stretched endlessly, the flat expanse of the ground leading people's line of sight to the distant horizon.
The car had been running for more than half of the journey when it suddenly turned left and plunged into the vast and majestic mountains, still with yellow withered grass covering the hills and dotted with short trees. Then it went down a very long and steep slope and stopped at a rest station in the mountains, which was a small oasis in the desert. The oasis was set up as an amusement park, with facilities such as Ferris wheels and mini trains, where people could play for free while resting.
Cheng Shixi stopped the car and turned his head to ask, "I'm going to the restroom, what about you?"
"I'm going too." Fang Mo Nan said briefly.
The two got off the car, Cheng Shixi locked it up and led Xiang towards the rest stop. He pointed out the direction of the restroom to Fang Mennai.
After Fang Mernan came out, she saw five tall and handsome men surrounding the car they were sitting in, constantly circling around it, muttering to themselves, their eyes gleaming with infatuation and greed. She stood not far from the car, waiting for the master's appearance.
Fang Mengnan had just stood still when he saw Cheng Shixi walking over from a distance, holding several hamburgers and two bottles of mineral water.
Cheng Shixi saw those people and thought it was better to be safe than sorry, so he handed the things in his hand to Fang Monan, "Hold on, wait here, I'll go start the car."
"Alright! You be careful, those few people don't look like good eggs." Fang Mo Nan reminded kindly.
"Wow... doll is concerned about me, I'm so touched!" Cheng Shixi exaggeratedly patted his own heart.
Fang Mo gave him a cold glance and splashed a basin of cold water on him. "I'm afraid you'll be unlucky, I won't be able to go home."
"Ah! You really are a constant source of joy for me." Cheng Shixi said with a smile.
"Hurry up! Little Qiang who can't be beaten to death." Fang Mo Nan urged. As they spoke, the others had already gathered together and walked towards him.
Cheng Shixi walked up with a leisurely smile on his face, and the people around him retreated far away. He smiled and asked the four men who blocked his way: "What's the matter with you stopping me?"
One of them, slightly shorter, with his head tilted back and eyes slanted at Cheng Shixi, was constantly fiddling with a folding spring knife in his hand, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth. "Pfft", he spat out after exhaling, "We've wiped down your car for you."
Cheng Shixi looked at the few rags on the car and smiled: "Then thank you, you've worked hard." He was very uncooperative. Fang Mennai couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard their conversation. She turned her head to look at him, innocently shrugging her shoulders.
"Damn it, you little brat are not being reasonable! We washed your car and the cost is $1000 for you!" One of the big guys with a rough appearance said in a loud voice that was like thunder. "We can't just do it for nothing, brothers!"
Cheng Shixi innocently blinked his eyes and sighed, "I didn't even ask you to wash the car, this is forced buying and selling!"
"So you're saying, kid, that you don't plan on paying up?!" The short one opened the spring knife in his hand, shining brightly under the sunlight, dazzling the eyes. "Then don't blame us for being impolite..."
Before the word "up" was shouted, Cheng Shixi had already made his move. Several people didn't have time to react, and with one stride, he arrived in front of the five men. His body arrived, his fists arrived, his palms arrived, his legs arrived, but all that could be seen was him punching like lightning, swinging his palms like knives, sweeping his legs like whips. All that could be heard were the crisp sounds of "pi li pa la", and suddenly, a heaven-shaking scream erupted. No one could withstand even one move from him. He pointed east and hit west, poked south and swept north, his fists arrived like mountains collapsing, his palms arrived like ocean waves crashing, his legs whipped by, blood splashing three feet high. In four seconds, the five men fell to the ground. Everyone's face was covered in bruises, screams echoed continuously as they rolled around on the ground.
The person lying on the ground looked at this Chinese man in terror, he's a god of death! If only I hadn't tried to extort him. The people watching from afar were swept away by Cheng Shixi's gaze and quickly retreated.
None of the five could catch a single move, Fang Mosou walked over, took a look, and saw that their hands and feet were all dislocated. They wouldn't die, but it would hurt for a while. Probably have to stay in the hospital for a period of time.
Cheng Shixi stood in the middle, looking tall and majestic, and even struck a pose that he thought was handsome, waiting for Fang Mengnan's admiring gaze.
"Can we go now?" Fang Mo Nan walked to the front of the car and asked faintly.
"Ah! What a waste, my lightning-fast moves were for nothing." Cheng Shixi muttered to himself as he walked, "Let's go! If you're hungry, let's fill our stomachs first. We still have over an hour before we reach our destination." After getting on the car, Cheng Shixi handed the things to Fang Monan.
The car left the rest stop and continued driving on the highway.
"No need, I'm not hungry." Fang Mo Nan put the things on the back seat.
Cheng Shixi tore open a hamburger and swallowed it in two or three mouthfuls, "Ah! Fighting is also hard work."
"You seem to be enjoying yourself," Fang Mo Nan said with a smile.
"It's too soft, can't even get a good hit in, can't even block one move." Cheng Shixi shook his head and nodded in agreement.
Fang Mo Nan furrowed his brow and said, "I think the staff at the rest stop are all afraid of them." They turned a blind eye to their extortionate behavior.
