C145 – Buying the Fruit Tree
Su Ming offered a wry smile as he entered the house and retrieved a bottle of black mineral water.
“President Chen, you’ve been such a great help to me. Have some water to quench your thirst,” he said, placing the bottle in front of President Chen.
President Chen was visibly moved, nearly brought to tears. “This is far too valuable; I simply can’t accept it!”
He was acutely aware of its worth. It was a cure for severe illness, a miraculous remedy. Wang Guohui’s mother had been on the brink of death, yet she regained her health after consuming just half a bottle. And now, Su Ming was offering it to him!This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com
“President Chen, I have plenty to spare,” Su Ming reassured him.
With a casual toss, Su Ming sent the bottle into President Chen’s arms. Catching it quickly, President Chen delicately wiped it with his fine suit before setting it down with care. He knew that many would clamor to purchase such an item. Among his acquaintances were wealthy individuals plagued by grave illnesses who would surely seek out this wonder drug if they knew of its existence.
Yet both President Chen and Wang Guohui understood that Mr. Su was not in need of money. They shared an unspoken agreement to keep this secret, with Wang Guohui even instructing his staff to maintain silence on the matter.
President Chen treasured the bottle too much to drink from it. He was getting on in years, as was his wife, and they had both children and elderly to care for at home. His own parents may have passed away, but his in-laws were still with them. This elixir could prove essential in the future.
Currently in good health, President Chen had felt a surge of vitality after his last drink of Su Ming’s concoction. He was astonished that Su Ming would gift him such a valuable medicine for the modest assistance he had provided.
His eyes went wide with astonishment. He could hardly believe he had managed to lift it. The bag was heavy, akin to an ordinary person hefting a large watermelon, but he had done it.
The revelation stunned him. He was no longer a young man, and in the past, he wouldn’t have been able to lift such a weight without risking injury. But now, it seemed effortless, and he felt confident he could lift another.
It dawned on President Chen that his newfound strength was thanks to Su Ming’s miraculous water. Could it really cure ailments and fortify the body?
His thoughts turned to his daughter. She had grown up comfortably, which had led to a bit of extra weight and poor physical fitness. Could this elixir improve her health as well?
He resolved to try it out when he returned home.
With his body invigorated, President Chen was overjoyed and threw himself into his work with even greater vigor.
Before long, he had completed the watering and fertilizing tasks.
Next, he meticulously cleaned Su Ming’s farm vehicle until it was spotless. After sharing a meal with Su Ming, he departed with a sense of reluctance.
Su Ming headed over to the neighboring construction site.
Noticing that the workers were still laboring diligently, he advised them to take it easy and provided them with some food. Having done so, Su Ming returned to rest.
