Chapter 19 The Psycho that Donated Five Million Yuan
At dusk in the Sunshine Orphanage.
Knock, knock!
Someone knocked on the rusty iron gate.
Su Ya, who was washing the children’s clothes, called, “Xiaoyu, open the door.”
“Humph!” Li Xiaoyu rolled her eyes at Su Ya and said, “No, why don’t you open the door?”
Su Ya snapped, “I’m doing your laundry. What about you wash the clothes while I open the door?”
Li Xiaoyu tilted her head and said, “I don’t do laundry either.”
“It could be Uncle Ning. He might have brought you some candies,” Su Ya said.
“Liar, I don’t believe you. He’s not coming back!” Li Xiaoyu was in a huff.
Su Ya glared at Li Xiaoyu and went to open the door. As the iron gate opened, a smiling and handsome face came into view. She froze for a moment. “Doctor Ning, you… ”
“Why are you reacting like that?” Ning Tao asked.
Su Ya came to her sense, and a trace of embarrassment appeared on her face. “We’ve been waiting for you all afternoon. I thought you weren’t coming back.”
“I will definitely fulfill my promise to director Zhou,” Ning Tao said firmly.
Su Ya got out of the way and said, “Come on in.”
Ning Tao then walked in.
When Su Ya was about to close the door, a man suddenly came in by the iron gate, his face dirty and he smelly. Su Ya immediately frowned and asked, “Who are you?”
“This is Jiang Yilong,” Ning Tao introduced.
Jiang Yilong gave her a pleasing smile and said, “You must be Miss Su Ya. Please give me your bank account number. I will transfer some money to you.”
Su Ya stared at Jiang Yilong with a puzzled expression on her face. She didn’t know Jiang Yilong, a big shot in Shan City, having connection with both government and underworld. In her eyes, Jiang Yilong was a beggar, who was mentally ill, and was picked up by Ning Tao.
Jiang Yilong got anxious and begged, “Miss Su Ya, I’m serious. Please give me your bank account number, I want to donate five million to Sunshine Orphanage!”
“Doctor Ning, where did you pick up the psycho? Here is an orphanage, not a mental hospital. I’m telling you, we don’t take him in here,” Su Ya said.
Ning Tao just smiled and didn’t say anything.
Jiang Yilong dropped to his knees in front of Su Ya. “Miss Su Ya, listen to me. Give me your bank account number, I really want to donate five million to Sunshine Orphanage.”
“You are a madman.” Su Ya said, as if very sure of that.
Ning Tao explained, “You don’t know him, so you think he is nuts. He’s Jiang Yilong, the owner of Hongyuan Real Estate in Shan City. He means it. Give him your card number. He will donate five million to Sunshine Orphanage.”
“What?” Su Ya suddenly froze on the spot. She wouldn’t believe anything Jiang Yilong said, but she believed Ning Tao.
Jiang Yilong started to cry, “Madam, I beg you, please give me your bank account number… ”
Su Ya remained frozen, feeling that she was in a fantastic dream.
“Jiang Yilong, don’t call her Madam when she’s so small!” Ning Tao said.
Before Jiang Yilong could correct the address, Su Ya burst out, like trampled on her foot. “How could you say me small?”
Ning Tao somehow conjured up her intimate embrace. Yeah, she was not small!
Jiang Yilong suddenly raised his right hand and slapped himself in the mouth. “I was wrong,” he said. “Miss Su Ya, please give me your bank account number, I will transfer the money to you.”
Su Ya was struck dumb for a minute.
It was undoubtedly the strangest of all the stranger things that had ever happened to her in her life. But ten minutes later it became a reality. Jiang Yilong actually put five million into the bank account that she gave him. It was not her own bank account, but the public account of Sunshine Orphanage for charitable donations.
“Doctor Ning, I have transferred money. When will you treat me? I feel like I’m dying… ” Jiang Yilong pleaded, tears rolling down his dirty cheeks and creating two eye-catching lines.
“What’s the hurry?” Ning Tao replied dryly. “This is supposed to be your own thing, but now I have to accompany you to complete it. I haven’t had lunch or dinner yet.”
Jiang Yilong dropped to his knees in front of Ning Tao again. “Doctor Ning, I have done exactly as you said. Save my life, please… ”
Su Ya could not bear to look at him, and she interceded with Ning Tao for Jiang Yilong. “Doctor Ning, since Mr. Jiang has done what you asked him to do, please treat his illness.”
“I’m hungry,” Ning Tao said.
“I’ll make a bowl of noodles for you and you’ll treat Mr. Jiang. I’ll call you when it’s ready.” Then Su Ya walked away. Ning Tao could tell that she was genuinely grateful to Jiang Yilong, but she obviously didn’t know what kind of person Jiang Yilong was.
“Having known the consequence, why did you do that? You deserve it! Come with me,” Ning Tao reprimanded Jiang Yilong and headed for a room.
That was the room he used to treat Zhou Yufeng. Zhou Yufeng had just recovered from her serious illness and was now asleep. She had no idea that Jiang Yilong was here and had donated five million yuan to Sunshine Orphanage.
Ning Tao led Jiang Yilong into the room and closed the door.
The room was dark with no light on.
“Doctor Ning, I… ” Out of guilt, Jiang Yilong was afraid.
“Are you scared?” Ning Tao asked curtly.
Jiang Yilong dropped to his knees again and said, “Doctor Ning, I don’t want to die. Please help me… ”
He had no idea how many times he had knelt today.
Ning Tao had no pity for him. “Lie down and close your eyes. You can’t open your eyes until I tell you to. If you break my rules, I won’t give you another look.”
Jiang Yilong lay down and closed his eyes tightly. Now even if Ning Tao told him to eat shit, he wouldn’t hesitate to put it in his mouth, let alone close his eyes. One’s strongest will was the will to live, and Jiang Yilong would do anything to live.
Ning Tao adjusted his mind, and then his eyes and nose went into the state of looking and smelling. He saw Jiang Yilong’s body giving off colorful breath. Different breath corresponded to different parts of his body. Then he looked at Jiang Yilong’s left arm, and soon saw a faint dark breath hidden in a mass of blood.
That little black breath was the evil energy that he had inserted into Jiang Yilong’s left arm with the Sacred Needle to Nasty Diseases, the source of the blackening and stinking of Jiang Yilong’s left arm. Modern medical equipment could not detect it at all, so it could not treat it as well. In fact, even amputation of his left arm would not save him.
The one who created a problem should be the one to solve it. If Jiang Yilong wanted to survive, he would have to ask Ning Tao to take that little bit of evil energy out of his body.
Ning Tao sat cross-legged next to Jiang Yilong, running the ABC of elementary cultivation method. A few minutes later, the point between his brows quivered, and the evil energy was sucked out and plunged into Ning Tao’s Niwan acupoint.
As the evil energy returned, Ning Tao felt a chill in the depth of the point between his eyebrows, followed by a pang of anger. He even felt the urge to destroy something. Taking a deep breath, he practiced the ABC of elementary cultivation method in silence. It was not until the spiritual energy he had developed swallowed the evil energy that he calmed down.
“Well, you can open your eyes.” Ning Tao got up and walked to the door.
Jiang Yilong opened his eyes and inquired nervously, “Doctor Ning, is the treatment over? Why didn’t I feel anything?”
Ning Tao looked back and said lightly, “Do you want me to do it again?”
Jiang Yilong said hurriedly, “No, no, no, I didn’t mean that.”
Ning Tao’s voice turned cold. “Your left hand will be fine in a few days, but remember how much work you still have to do. If you leave things to chance and refuse to atone for your sins, no one can save you. You really only have about ten days left. Take care of yourself.”
A cold sweat broke out on Jiang Yilong’s forehead. Subconsciously, Jiang Yilong reached out to wipe the sweat off his forehead and found his left hand could move now. “My, my hand… is healed!” he exclaimed.
Ning Tao opened the door and walked out.
The bright moon climbed high in the sky, showering its silvery light on the Sunshine Orphanage.
Su Ya came out of the kitchen with a bowl of noodles. At the sight of Ning Tao, she called, “Doctor Ning, come and have noodles.”
Ning Tao’s stomach had already rumbled with hunger. He walked over quickly, took the noodles from Su Ya and started eating without even putting the bowl on the table. With some noodles in his mouth, he frowned slightly.
Su Ya asked immediately, “How do my noodles taste?”
Ning Tao swallowed the noodles and said, “It’s a little salty.”
Su Ya pursed her mouth and cried, “Is mine salty? Now that mine is salty, why are you still eating?”
Keeping on eating, Ning Tao said vaguely, “Never mind, I can eat even if it’s salty. I’ll come and eat you… ”
Before he finished, Ning Tao suddenly realized something was wrong with their conversation. He looked up at Su Ya.
Su Ya seemed to have also realized something was wrong. Their eyes met. The next second, she spat, “You rogue!”
Ning Tao did not dare a response, but retorted in his heart, “You said it. I didn’t mess with you!”
At this moment, Jiang Yilong came out of the room and said, “Miss Su Ya, do you have any more noodles? Cook me a bowl of it, too.”
Su Ya said petulantly, “The noodles are all given to Doctor Ning. There aren’t any left!”
Jiang Yilong said delicately, “Don’t be angry, Miss Su Ya. Just forget it. I’m calling my secretary to make a donation to the nursing home.”
Su Ya was tongue-tied. She looked at Ning Tao, her dark eyes full of confusion and curiosity. She knew that without Ning Tao, Jiang Yilong wouldn’t have given five million yuan to the Sunshine Orphanage, and planned to donate money to the nursing home like a fool. “How did he do it? Just by treating Jiang Yilong? And What kind of man is he?” Su Ya wondered.
Ning Tao avoided Su Ya’s eyes and continued to eat the noodles. It was strange… The noodles were not so salty anymore.
