128: Chapter 128: Dreaming 128: Chapter 128: Dreaming Ye Qiu rode his electric bike back to the teaching building at Jiangbei No. 3 Middle School. It was just past eight in the evening. He parked the bike and headed to the Sina Internet Cafe. Upon entering the internet cafe, he saw Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming playing games. The two had already spotted Ye Qiu and waved him over. Ye Qiu sat at a nearby seat. By entering his ID number and the cafe’s password, he logged in. The last time he was here, he hadn’t used up all his pre-paid internet hours. After logging in, he opened a webpage and looked for a movie to watch. It wasn’t until about 10:15 p.m. that the three of them logged off and left the internet cafe. As they walked back to the front gate of the school, Li Shen asked, “Qiu, did you just finish treating that patient?” “I’ll go treat her again tomorrow,” Ye Qiu said. The two went home first, while Ye Qiu headed into the teaching building. After waiting downstairs for about five minutes, he saw Liu Lingxiu coming down from upstairs. Su Luoluo was following close behind, but she seemed really upset that Ye Qiu wouldn’t give her his phone number and apparently didn’t want to deal with him anymore. Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu walked toward the school gate, and Liu Lingxiu asked, “Where did you go just now?” “I went to earn some money,” Liu Lingxiu didn’t quite understand, so Ye Qiu explained, “I went to treat someone, Miss Zhou’s mother, that is, Zhou Bao’s wife.” Upon hearing that Ye Qiu went to treat someone, Liu Lingxiu finally understood why Ye Qiu said he was earning money. When they reached the school gate, Liu Lingxiu got on the electric bike, and as Ye Qiu drove toward her house, he told her that Wang Yulian had a dead fetus inside her for over twenty years. Liu Lingxiu was quite frightened upon hearing that. When they arrived at Liu Lingxiu’s doorstep, Ye Qiu let her off and then headed back to the congee and noodle shop. The shop was still in business, but Ye Weidong had stopped doing barbecues. There was also a notice posted that they planned to sublease the place after tomorrow. Of course, only just putting up the notice, many people came by to inquire about the sublease price. Initially, Ye Weidong had signed a long-term lease for the place, and now that the business was well-established, there were certainly people willing to take over. Seeing Ye Qiu come back, Ye Xue asked, “Bro, what do you want to eat?” “Sis, I want noodles,” While Ye Xue went to cook noodles for Ye Qiu, he planned to treat Wang Yulian the next day, then wait to see if Mr. Li would call. If he did, Ye Qiu would take Ye Weidong to check out the palace cuisine restaurant site. Because the place was far from here, the family would definitely have to move if they decided to open the restaurant there. When Ye Xue finished making the noodles, Ye Qiu sat down to eat them. After he finished, Ye Weidong told Ye Xue and Ye Qiu to go rest as they prepared to close the shop. Ye Qiu and Ye Xue headed back to their old neighborhood, encountering other residents along the way. They greeted Ye Qiu but didn’t dare to say much else. Some time ago, they had thought Ye Qiu had really been expelled. To their surprise, the school had pleaded with Ye Qiu to come back, which made them think Li Lanfang had spread rumors to embarrass Ye Qiu. But it backfired, and now Li Lanfang didn’t dare say anything. When the two got upstairs, Ye Qiu grabbed his clothes and went to the bathroom to shower. After finishing, he returned to his room. For Ye Qiu, cultivation was the most important thing now. The faster he cultivated and broke through, the sooner he could ascend and return to the Heavenly Court Imperial Medical Bureau. Although he was already progressing quickly by absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, he still didn’t know how long it would take to return to the Heavenly Court Imperial Medical Bureau. Ye Qiu practiced the Primordial Five Emperors Technique, absorbing the moon’s essence, until he opened his eyes the next day and found it was already past eight in the morning. He knew Liu Lingxiu had an exam today, so he hurriedly washed up and rushed to the congee and noodle shop. With not enough time for breakfast, he grabbed his electric bike and headed to Liu Lingxiu’s house. Liu Lingxiu was still waiting for Ye Qiu. When she finally saw him, Ye Qiu said, “Lingshow, sorry, I overslept.” “There’s still half an hour before the exam, we still have time,” Getting to school on the electric bike would only take a little over ten minutes. Ye Qiu drove Liu Lingxiu to the teaching building, and she asked, “You’re really not taking the exam?” “No, you go ahead,” Liu Lingxiu had to go in by herself. Ye Qiu left the electric bike there, and Zhou Yuxia called, asking him to come to Jinling People’s Hospital to treat her mother. … Last night, Zhou Wenting had stayed in the hospital room to accompany her mother. Wang Yulian sat on the hospital bed, seemingly lost in old memories until she fell asleep past ten at night. Zhou Wenting covered her mother with a blanket and was about to sleep when she suddenly heard a noise. She opened her eyes to see her mother shouting. She quickly turned on the light, seeing her mother’s pale face and sweat. It was clear she’d had a nightmare. “Mom, are you okay?” Zhou Wenting called several times, shaking her mother’s hand, before Wang Yulian finally opened her eyes. But even awake, she had tears streaming down her face. “Wenting, I just had a dream,” “Mom, it’s okay, it’s just a dream,” Wang Yulian sighed, saying, “Ah, maybe it’s fate. I dreamt about the unborn child. He was a boy, asking me not to let him go, that he wanted to stay with me. It must be him sending me a message, so should I let him stay inside?” Wang Yulian had always thought she hadn’t carried a boy, not realizing the dead fetus left inside was a boy. She believed it was just a dream! But in the dream, it felt so real, the boy she had never seen calling her mom, begging her not to leave him. So, she kept dreaming. Zhou Wenting was surprised by her mother’s dream, but she knew that the dead fetus was harmful to her mother’s health and couldn’t stay inside. She didn’t say much and comforted her mother to calm her down and go back to sleep. Zhou Wenting herself had a hard time sleeping, thinking about her three sisters and Ye Qiu. She went to the hallway outside the room, took out her phone, and first called her elder sister, Zhou Yuxia, to tell her about their mother’s dream. After talking to Zhou Yuxia, she also called her second sister and third sister, telling them about it. The three sisters all thought it was eerie and agreed it was best to remove the fetus soon and maybe have a mage perform a ritual afterward.
