Chapter 252 Unexpected
Wei Yu didn’t quite understand what Third Brother was thinking, but when Third Brother looked toward him, Wei Yu still showed him an honest and simple smile.
“Third Brother, don’t be lacking in confidence. Trust your younger brother. Just because of these sharp eyes I’ve honed over the days serving Father Emperor, I can tell at a glance that you’re a born genius in physics and chemistry!”
Wei Yu smiled and said, “When we get back, I’ll imdiately talk to Father Emperor and have him include you in the talent training program for physics and chemistry. We must make sure you beco an outstanding physicist and chemist. Third Brother, you will surely leave a brilliant mark in history!”
Third Prince: ……
He tilted his head, avoiding the intense gaze of his own Ninth Brother, and slowly exhaled.
So is this the attack Eldest Brother had experienced earlier?
Indeed, it was a bit hard to resist.
“Third Brother, what are you doing?”
A head leaned in. Third Prince, expression unchanged, pushed it away.
Pushed away by Third Brother with one hand, Wei Yu didn’t mind and continued to pest him. “Third Brother, you see, I’m already revealing my deepest secrets to you. Don’t you have so reaction? I trust you so much; among all my brothers, you are the only one I trust the most!”
These words sounded familiar.
Third Prince paused, turned to look at Wei Yu, and reminded him, “You said that to Eldest Brother just yesterday.”
“Ah? Did I say that?”
Wei Yu thought about it and seed to recall saying that… but no!
“Third Brother, you’re mistaken!”
Wei Yu looked at him disapprovingly. “Eldest Brother is the one I admire the most; you are the one I trust the most! Admiration and trust are two different things; they shouldn’t be confused. Third Brother, your knowledge is poor!”
The Third Prince, criticized for his poor knowledge, silently stared at him.
After being stared at like that for a long ti, Wei Yu was used to it. Relying on his thick skin, he felt no embarrassnt at all. He picked up the teapot, poured tea for his Third Brother, and then poured a cup for himself as well.
Talking makes one thirsty, and after finishing the tea, Wei Yu asked Third Brother, “Third Brother, do you have anything else you want to ask?”
Third Prince replied indifferently, “If I ask, will you tell ?”
“Oh, not necessarily.”
Third Prince: ……
Wei Yu chuckled, “Everyone has secrets. Although so things can’t be told to Third Brother, you’re a good person. As long as it’s sothing I can share, I definitely will tell you.”
Hearing this, Third Prince looked at him.
The young man’s gaze was sincere and pure, as if spoke from the bottom of his heart.
Faced with such pure eyes, Third Prince only quietly looked at him for a few seconds, then turned his head away and reached for the ledger he had set aside earlier.
He didn’t ask anything.
Wei Yu was slightly surprised. “Third Brother really not asking? Opportunities don’t co often; once missed, there won’t be a next ti!”
Third Prince didn’t raise his head, “Aren’t we going back to the capital later? Let’s talk about it after we return.”
Now it was Wei Yu’s turn to be silent.
When his Third Brother pressed him on key points, he was truly annoying, but now that he wasn’t asking, he was actually quite considerate.
It made one feel a bit embarrassed.
Feeling embarrassed, Wei Yu imdiately relaxed and quickly stood up to leave. “Alright then, Third Brother, rember this is what you said yourself. Later on, you can’t co asking
again, okay? I have other things to do, so I won’t bother you anymore. Third Brother, goodbye!”
After speaking, Wei Yu quickly bolted out.
Once he left, Third Prince lifted his head and looked toward the door.
The noble Third Prince looked distinguished even when holding a book, yet he sighed softly while staring at the door.
“Ninth Brother… I really didn’t expect that.”
—
Unexpected things happened frequently. Wei Yu also didn’t expect that one day, the cold Doctor Shi would personally co to him, wanting to offer her dical Valley for use!
Outside the city, free dical consultations continued. Since the disaster relief team hadn’t left for a day, consultations had to continue. Even though so doctors ca in response to the announcent, alleviating so pressure from Tan Lin and the others, the ratio between dical staff and patients remained extrely uneven.
Wei Yu had been sending people to find a suitable place to establish a dical Academy, but for various reasons, had not found one yet.
He thought it would take so more days to find a place, but unexpectedly Doctor Shi ca by herself.
Not only was she willing to offer dical Valley as the location for the dical Academy, but she was also willing to let other dical practitioners in dical Valley co work there!
“Are you really willing?”
Wei Yu was a bit surprised.
Doctor Shi ca alone to see Wei Yu.
Her expression was calm; she nodded frankly, “Yes, they are doctors anyway. It’s only right that they co to practice dicine. dical Valley is peaceful, with mountains and water. I have practiced there for many years, and the local people know this. If the academy is built there, students can study and also follow the teachers to see patients; a perfect arrangent.”
Wei Yu stared at Doctor Shi for a couple of monts and smiled slightly, “Alright, since you say so, dical Valley is such a good place. If I don’t use it to build the academy, that would indeed be ungrateful.”
Wei Yu had noticed Doctor Shi’s change in attitude ever since that small eting earlier.
Doctor Shi was a person with a very tough temperant.
That toughness was because she knew she was facing a prince of the nation but still showed no sign of subservience.
If she were not facing Wei Yu, this could be called ungrateful or courting death.
Before knowing her background, Wei Yu always thought it was just her nature. Since she was soone he wanted to recruit, as long as she didn’t cause trouble for others, Wei Yu didn’t plan to treat her differently. But after hearing about the Shi family, Wei Yu understood her true thoughts.
— She was truly “courting death.”
Because of the Shi family, because of the chaos in Donghai Commandery, because of the corruption in the governnt that left people hopeless… Doctor Shi did not intentionally seek death, but she didn’t care whether she lived or died.
Before, Doctor Shi maintained a just-getting-by attitude towards life.
Fortunately, after the small eting, Doctor Shi probably ca to a realization, and her entire deanor softened considerably.
