Since she was Qin Ning's benefactor, shouldn't he treat her with even more respect?
Even though his family was the wealthiest in Liu City, leagues above the Gu Siyu in front of him.
But ever since he learned of a special existence like Qin Ning, in Xia Fei's eyes, money didn't seem that important anymore.
"Xia Fei..."
Hearing this name again, Gu Siyu fell silent.
She had felt the name was somewhat familiar just now, as if she had heard it somewhere before.
Thinking back carefully now, she suddenly realized, "You are the eldest son of the Xia family, Xia Fei?"
Gu Siyu was shocked.
This was a top-tier young master in Liu City, from the absolute wealthiest family.
She never imagined that one day she would be able to sit at the same table with such a figure.
Moreover, Xia Fei had personally helped her solve her trouble!
If she hadn't experienced it herself, she absolutely wouldn't have believed it was true.
When she looked at Qin Fei again, Gu Siyu's eyes held nothing but astonishment.
Since when did Qin Fei know a top young master like Xia Fei?
"Xiao Xia, Sister Gu, you can just call me Xiao Xia," Xia Fei said, feeling flattered.
Soon, all the dishes were served. Zhou Ping'an sat beside Qin Ning, taking charge of pouring wine for him and occasionally offering a toast.
This made Xia Fei incredibly envious. Because he had to drive, he couldn't drink, and could only watch Zhou Ping'an drink heartily with Qin Ning.
Naturally, this scene made Gu Siyu realize something.
It seemed that Xia Fei and Zhou Ping'an were acting this way mostly because of Qin Ning; the focus wasn't on Qin Fei at all.
Soon, several rounds of drinks had passed.
Except for Xia Fei and Qin Fei, the other three had all been drinking.
Qin Ning was fine, showing no signs of drunkenness, but it was a different story for Gu Siyu and Zhou Ping'an.
Xia Fei supported Zhou Ping'an, while Qin Fei supported Gu Siyu, walking them all the way to the car.
Because Gu Siyu had been drinking and couldn't drive, Qin Fei had to drive her home.
She asked, "Sister Gu, where do you live? I'll take you back first."
"I live at..."
Although Gu Siyu was drunk, she was still somewhat sober and gave an address.
"Eh, what a coincidence? We live there too."
Qin Fei was taken aback, not expecting Gu Siyu to live in the same neighborhood, and also in a villa.
This made things much more convenient.
She quickly started the car, signaled Xia Fei to follow, and then drove back toward the neighborhood.
"Sister Gu, you live here?"
Arriving outside a villa, Qin Fei couldn't help but ask.
Although this villa couldn't be compared to the one Xia Fei had gifted them, it wasn't bad either. In a place like Liu City, it would still cost around ten million to buy.
Moreover, Gu Siyu's villa wasn't far from theirs; it was only a few minutes' walk away.
"Let's go, Xiao Fei. Come sit at my place for a bit. I'll have someone brew some tea to help Xiao Ning and Xiao Zhou sober up," Gu Siyu invited.
Qin Fei glanced at the people behind her and didn't refuse. After nodding, she followed Gu Siyu into the villa.
"Miss, you're back."
As soon as they entered, a servant came to greet them. She was a middle-aged woman.
"Aunt Fang, are my parents asleep?" Gu Siyu asked.
"Not yet."
Aunt Fang frowned, "The master's health isn't too good today. He's been coughing so much he can't sleep. The madam is keeping him company."
"Okay, I understand."
Hearing this, a look of worry appeared on Gu Siyu's face. She quickly added, "Aunt Fang, these are my friends. Please brew some hangover tea for them. I'll go up to check on my parents and be right down."
"Yes, Miss." Aunt Fang replied respectfully, then led Qin Ning and the others to sit on the sofa in the living room.
Before they could finish a cup of tea, Gu Siyu came down from upstairs, her complexion not looking very good.
"What's wrong, Sister Gu?"
Seeing her like this, Qin Fei couldn't help but ask out of concern.
"It's nothing. My parents are getting older, and their health is poor. Especially recently, my dad's condition has worsened a lot. We've gone back and forth to the hospital many times, but all the tossing about has only made his health worse," Gu Siyu sighed.
Birth, aging, illness, and death are natural facts of life.
Although she had long prepared herself mentally, she still dared not imagine what it would be like after her parents left her.
They were her only two relatives left in the world.
Qin Fei glanced at Qin Ning but didn't say anything.
Qin Ning knew what she wanted to say. He smiled faintly and then said to Gu Siyu, "Sister Gu, if you trust me, why don't you let me take a look at him?"
"You know medicine too?" Gu Siyu was taken aback.
"A little."
Qin Ning nodded gently.
"Maybe we shouldn't trouble you. It's late at night. It's not that I don't trust you, I just don't want to inconvenience you," Gu Siyu said.
"It's fine, Sister Gu. Let my brother take a look. We're already here anyway," Qin Fei said with a smile.
She knew her brother was no ordinary person. If he was truly willing to help, curing Sister Gu's parents definitely wouldn't be a problem.
"This... alright."
Gu Siyu hesitated for a moment but ultimately nodded. "Come with me."
As she led Qin Ning up to the second floor, Xia Fei and Zhou Ping'an, unable to suppress their curiosity, followed along.
Soon, they arrived in a room.
On the bed, Father Gu was sitting up against the headboard, coughing every now and then. Beside him, Mother Gu was carefully tending to him.
"Siyu, why are you back? Is something the matter?"
Seeing them enter the room, Mother Gu asked curiously, her gaze sweeping over the people who had followed her in.
"Mom, this is my friend Qin Ning. He has studied medicine. He happens to be a guest at our house tonight, and after hearing about Dad's poor health, he wanted to come and see what the situation is," Gu Siyu introduced.
Hearing this, Mother Gu smiled and looked at Qin Ning. "Xiao Qin, we appreciate your kindness, but this old man has a chronic condition, and the hospital has already prescribed medicine."
"It's fine, Aunt Gu. It's no trouble at all," Qin Ning said with a smile.
"This... alright, you can take a look." Mother Gu thought to herself that he was offering out of goodwill. Given her husband's current condition, they were almost at the point of trying any available doctor in desperation. Letting Qin Ning examine him might be a good thing if he actually had a solution.
"Sorry to trouble you, Xiao Qin. Cough, cough..."
On the bed, Father Gu naturally heard their conversation and spoke with a smile.
The couple were both very kind. They had endured hard times in their youth, working tirelessly in Liu City for many years to achieve their current success. However, their health had suffered as a result, leaving them with chronic ailments. Having no other choice, they handed over the family business to Gu Siyu to manage.
Qin Ning walked up to the bed and simply placed his fingers lightly on Father Gu's wrist, looking as though a traditional Chinese medicine doctor was checking his pulse.
In reality, he didn't know much about reading pulses; he was just putting on an act. Instead, he used his divine sense, channeling it through his fingers to investigate the condition inside the other man's body.
"The problem isn't major."
A moment later, Qin Ning stood up.
