Chapter 280: Chapter 49_5

"There weren’t many people at the noon storytelling session, so I packed up early and started doing my part-time job."

Yu Shu squatted down in front of Li Zhiyuan and reached out to touch his head:

"Kid, do you live around here?"

Li Sanjiang, who had been handing out cigarettes, came over and saw the scene, immediately saying, "This is my great-grandson, haha, this building will be his in the future."

"Your great-grandson?" Yu Shu seemed very surprised, "A blood relative?"

"Of course, he’s named in my will."

"Oh, is that so? He’s a pretty smart kid, I like him."

"Well, of course, my little Yuanhou is clever indeed."

"Alright, Mr. Li, I have to go. I’ll treat you to a drink another time."

"Sure, sure."

Tan Yunlong took the initiative to walk over to Yu Shu and asked, "Do you have any plans for tomorrow?"

"No, there’s nothing else here, it’s very clean, I’m leaving tomorrow. Thank you for your hard work, Captain Tan."

"I’m just following orders."

At Big Beard’s place, the policemen had already left. Li Sanjiang, together with the two others, headed towards home. On the way, Li Sanjiang kept complaining about the nonsensical day; in the morning, he was taken to the police station by a police car, ran around to several places in the afternoon, and in the end, even the village got involved.

However, it wasn’t all for nothing; in the end, the man even slipped him a pack of cigarettes.

Li Zhiyuan was listening while pondering the identity of the storyteller. It was clear that storytelling was just his side job, and it was rare to see someone perform their side job to such a level.

But, to say the least, since the man worked with the police, he definitely wasn’t a bad person.

There was no need for himself to worry anymore.

Back at home on the courtyard, Run Sheng was still making paper crafts while watching TV.

Li Sanjiang walked over and gave Run Sheng a flick on the head, who just smiled in response.

Tan Wenbin sat down and skillfully started making paper crafts, simultaneously regretting, "If I knew, I would have brought my homework with me."

Just as Li Zhiyuan was about to go upstairs, his ears twitched, and he softly said, "Brother Binbin, hurry back and do your homework."

"Hm?"

While his mouth voiced confusion, his body, out of habit, dropped the task at hand, flipped to the side, and sat at the small desk, pretending to ponder.

Soon, Tan Yunlong stepped onto the courtyard.

Tan Wenbin heard the familiar footsteps and silently curved up the corners of his mouth.

But to his surprise, Tan Yunlong came over and smacked him on the back of the head, scolding, "What are you fooling around for?"

Tan Wenbin felt wronged, thinking: Dad, how could you misunderstand me when I’m studying so hard?

"Snap!"

The next moment, Tan Yunlong flipped the switch, and the desk lamp lit up.

Tan Wenbin: "..."

Run Sheng moved the TV outside to watch it, the light from the TV screen being enough for him to work by.

Tan Wenbin was used to doing homework beside Run Sheng, but since Xiao Yuan had lent him the desk lamp, he no longer turned on the light bulb overhead.

So, from his father’s perspective, he was practically working on his homework in the dark.

Tan Yunlong brought over a bag of stuff and set it down; it was some traditional remedies his wife had specially prepared.

He had carefully checked them, non-toxic.

"Xiao Yuan, I forgot to give these to you just now. Have a look and try some."

"Thank you, Uncle Tan. My eyes are almost better, and when they are, I’ll need to ask Uncle Tan to help me register for school."

"Of course, once your eyes are better, we will go. The school said you can start anytime, depending on how you feel."

"Alright, Uncle Tan."

Tan Yunlong turned around and was about to leave, but he stopped in front of his son, picked up the homework book on the small desk, flipped it open, and saw it was filled with problem-solving steps.

"Dad, these are the problems Xiao Yuan gave me."

"Study hard," said Tan Yunlong as he put down the book and patted his son’s head before leaving.

Run Sheng always watched the TV broadcast end each night.

When a fixed color pattern appeared on the TV, he turned off the set. He turned around and saw that Tan Wenbin was still working on problems.

"You’re not going to sleep?"

"You go ahead, I’ll work a little longer."

"Oh."

Run Sheng washed up and went to sleep.

In the morning when he woke up, he saw no one at the adjacent round table, but when he turned his head, he found Tan Wenbin fast asleep at the small desk, still holding a pen in his hand.

Run Sheng walked over to the small dog’s cage and patted its head.

Xiao Hei the dog glanced at him and continued to turn over and sleep.

Run Sheng muttered, "What a useless dog."

After Li Zhiyuan woke up, besides coming down to eat porridge, he sat on the second-floor terrace the rest of the time.

He had been "watching" "Liu’s Qi Observation Technique" and "Qin’s Jiao Observation Method" for several days and felt that perhaps under the condition of not being able to see with his eyes, he might gain a new understanding of Feng Shui.

As it turned out, he was overthinking.

After days of ruminating, he understood two things: first, those fortune-tellers who pretended to be blind were generally unreliable; second, one must protect their eyes well.

Tonight, Li Zhiyuan waited outside for a long time but did not see Liu Yumei and her family return.

Hearing the "beep" sound of the untuned channel from Run Sheng’s TV downstairs, Li Zhiyuan also went into his room, performed a set of eye exercises, and laid down to sleep.

Upon waking up, he habitually opened his eyes and looked over.

He saw a girl in a white dress with a hairpin, sitting there quite demurely.

The first reaction was, she’s still so beautiful.

And then:

Oh,

my eyes are healed.
