Yang Guang was stunned by the question. The image of a small jade Buddha statue immediately appeared in his mind!
It was the thank-you gift that Yang Jianguo had given to him after he had treated him.
If He Qingtang hadn’t asked, he would have forgotten about it!
Now that the old man mentioned it, Yang Guang remembered that he had liked the jade Buddha statue very much at that time. However, after he took it back home, he had put it into the box under his bed and never touched it again!
“Why do you know about the Buddha statue?” Yang Guang asked.
“Isn’t that simple? I’ve seen that Buddha statue of yours a long time ago. I asked Jianguo for it twice, but he refused to give it to me no matter what. When I met him two days ago, he told me that he gave it away!” He Qingtang said with a dissatisfied look.
“Is that so?” Yang Guang smiled and continued, “If you like it, I’ll give it to you later!”
Unexpectedly, the old man shook his head. “That won’t do!”
Then, he said seriously, “Since it’s in your hands, I want you to keep it well. Don’t lose It!”
Yang Guang was stunned and looked at He Qingtang. “Why?”
“It’s a treasure!” He Qingtang narrowed his eyes and said seriously, “Yang Jianguo doesn’t know the value of that thing, but I do. No matter where you got your ability, that jade Buddha will be very beneficial to you. It will only bring benefits and no disadvantages to you!”
“Really?” Yang Guang was a little surprised when he heard that. Then, he thought for a while before saying, “But this matter should be known to Yang Jianguo, no?”
“There’s no need. Even if you told him, it would be useless to him. That jade Buddha is not something that ordinary people can use. Do you understand what I mean?” He Qingtang said.
Yang Guang was somewhat confused and could only nod blankly, “I seem to understand a little!”
“That’s good then!” He Qingtang smiled and stood up to pat him on the shoulder. “It’s getting late. Dinner should be ready. Let’s go eat!”
“Okay,” Yang Guang nodded.
With this, he and He Yu followed the old man out of the study room and went to the dining room together.
Yang Guang found something strange. Didn’t they say that the He family was a big family? Why was there no one else at home other than the auntie that did the cooking?
Of course, it was not appropriate for him to ask this question, so he could only keep his doubts to himself.
The dinner was very sumptuous. Although there were only three people, the table was full of dishes. He Qingtang did not ask any questions about Yang Guang’s medical skills. He only cared about putting food on Yang Guang’s plate.
Facing the old man’s enthusiasm, Yang Guang was a little flattered.
At the same time, he was secretly puzzled. He did not understand why the old man would act this way, so he could not help but sneak a glance at He Yu while he ate.
Unfortunately, He Yu played dumb and pretended not to see his gaze. She did not respond at all.
When dinner was over, He Qingtang invited Yang Guang back to the study. At this time, the tea had just been brewed.
After sitting down and taking a sip of tea, He Qingtang said to Yang Guang, “Stay over at my house tonight. Treat this as your home. Don’t stand on ceremony!”
“Okay, but grandpa, I have a question to ask you!” Yang Guang couldn’t hold it in and could only take the initiative to ask.
However, when he said this, He Qingtang shook his head. “There’s no need to rush, be patient for tonight. I’ll definitely talk to you about serious matters tomorrow morning!”
“Uh, okay,” Yang Guang could only nod.
He Qingtang looked at his granddaughter, “Yuyu, stay at grandpa’s tonight too!”
“It’s fine!” He Yu hurriedly got up, “I still have something to do at home. I’ll be leaving first!”
After saying that, she ran away without even looking back!
“This girl is really insensible!” He Qingtang shook his head and sighed. “Why waste such a good opportunity?”
Yang Guang did not know what he meant, so he could only stay quiet, pretending to be mute.
After sitting for a while, He Qingtang noticed that it was getting late, so he said, “It’s already so late. Yang Guang, go upstairs and rest. The guest room has already been prepared for you!”
“Okay, then I’ll go to bed first,” Yang Guang quickly got up and walked out of the door.
He could not sit still any longer. He had been waiting for this sentence!
The old man was acting so mysterious and had been attempting to play matchmaker between him and He Yu. It made Yang Guang feel very uncomfortable!
As such, sitting in the study for such a long time made him feel as if he was sitting on pins and needles!
Now he was finally free. Yang Guang let out a long sigh of relief when he walked out of the door.
He did not expect that the best part was yet to come!
Yang Guang followed the auntie upstairs and entered the guest room.
The room was a little dark. He fumbled around for a while before he found the light switch in the room. The minute the lights were turned on, Yang Guang’s eyes widened!
There were photos everywhere in the room.
And the person in the photos was naturally He Yu.
From the age of two or three until now, photos of her every stage were here.
“What’s going on?” Yang Guang was dumbstruck as he looked around. Could this be He Yu’s room?
Otherwise, why would there be so many photos?
However, the layout of the room didn’t look like it. It wasn’t probable that a girl’s room looked like a standard room in a hotel, right?
Yang Guang pondered over it and felt that the biggest possibility was that these photos were arranged by the old man, He Qingtang. He had probably brought all the photos of He Yu from other places here just for Yang Guang to see.
Yang Guang was speechless after figuring this out.
Then, he could only shake his head helplessly and smile bitterly.
He sat down at the head of the bed and found that He Yu was smiling at him in all directions. Yang Guang had no choice but to turn off the lights in the room and let out a long sigh.
Then, he lay on the bed and took out his phone to take a look.
Mu Xiaowan still hadn’t replied to his message. He dialed her number and was told that the other party’s phone was turned off. Yang Guang was puzzled and wondered what had happened.
Because he was worried about her, Yang Guang could only dial Qi Yingxue’s number instead.
“Hello?” Qi Yingxue’s voice was gentle.
“Sis, is Mu Xiaowan back?” Yang Guang asked.
“She’s back. What’s wrong?” Qi Yingxue asked.
“Oh, it’s good that she’s back,” Yang Guang heaved a sigh of relief and continued, “She didn’t reply to my text message before, and when I called her, her phone was switched off. I thought something happened!”
“No, she came back to look for me and just went home. She must have been too tired these few days that she switched off her phone and went to sleep!” Qi Yingxue said.
“Okay, then I’m relieved,” Yang Guang smiled.
Qi Yingxue nodded and then asked, “How are you doing in the provincial capital?”
“Pretty good. If there’s nothing important, I’ll go back tomorrow,” Yang Guang said and then added, “I’ll go look for you after I go back.”
“Okay, we’ll talk tomorrow,” Qi Yingxue said and then hung up the phone.
Yang Guang laid down on the bed. The image of the night he was with her immediately surfaced in his mind.
Even though Qi Yingxue had told him to forget about it and not to mention it again, that night was definitely something that Yang Guang would never forget for the rest of his life!
After thinking about it, Yang Guang did not understand why she would not allow him to mention that night again. Mu Xiaowan also did not tell him her secret.. All this was just a headache!
