Coincidence

Su Ziyang and his companion originally planned to return to the city in the morning, but the two elders insisted that they stay for brunch before allowing them to leave.

After changing buses twice, the two finally arrived in the city in the late afternoon.

The two strolled around all day. Since Old Madam Liu had told them not to eat raw, cold, greasy, or spicy food, they simply found a porridge shop and had some porridge.

The commotion lasted until evening. Su Ziyang had been a little worried these past two days because his drinking that day had made Yang Tianzheng angry with him. Su Ziyang had sent Yang Tianzheng WeChat today, but Yang Tianzheng hadn't replied.

Su Ziyang meant that the two of them should go home and chat for a while, and then discuss how to trick Old Madam Liu next time.

The two strolled Dada towards the residential area, discussing going to Old Madam Liu's place again next week to find out what was going on.

Because the neighborhood where Su Ziyang lived was an old neighborhood, the streetlights were rather dim. When Su Ziyang reached the iron gate of the neighborhood, he saw a person staggering towards him, holding a mobile phone.

The person was looking down at their phone, and the screen brightness was set extremely high, making their face glow.

Seeing that the man was walking unsteadily, Su Ziyang and Er Biao assumed he was drunk and tried to stay away from him.

Unexpectedly, the person bumped right into Su Ziyang's shoulder. After bumping into Su Ziyang's shoulder, the person looked up and waved their phone at Su Ziyang's face before continuing to walk forward.

Su Ziyang didn't say anything, but Er Biao was unhappy. "Watch where you're going! You bumped into someone and didn't even apologize!"

"Alright, he's probably had too much to drink. Let's go, Brother Biao!"

Su Ziyang tugged at Er Biao; he didn't want to argue with a drunkard.

When Er Biao called out, the man actually stood still, turned around, and grinned at Su Ziyang and Er Biao: "Who do you think is drunk?"

After the man stopped and said those words, Su Ziyang also felt that this man was looking for trouble, so he turned around and looked at him as well.

The man, seeing Su Ziyang looking at him, said into his phone, "It's him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, less than a minute later, seven or eight people, all averaging over 1.8 meters tall, rushed out from the shadows and surrounded Er Biao and Su Ziyang.

Su Ziyang and Er Biao were similar in build, both standing at 1.75 meters tall and relatively thin.

"What are you doing!" Er Biao had been in many fights over the years, and seeing these seven or eight burly men, his legs trembled a little, but he still protected Su Ziyang behind him.

Then he whispered in Su Ziyang's ear, "Ziyang, you have a security camera here, right? If it doesn't work, call the police, or just run away!"

In Er Biao's mind, Su Ziyang was just a weak and uneducated college student who knew a little about medicine and had a powerful shaman above him.

Er Biao was mentally calculating how to run faster, or even if it meant taking a couple of hits himself, he had to let Su Ziyang escape.

Su Ziyang patted Er Biao Er Biao on the shoulder and stood in front of him. "Did Fu Xinyu send you? To deal with me? To beat me up?"

Seven or eight burly men were somewhat surprised to see Su Ziyang facing them, asking questions without batting an eye. The man who had been holding the phone stepped forward and said to Su Ziyang, "You don't need to know who it is. We won't hit you or beat you up. We're just telling you, don't go to work anymore. You're fired! Understand?"

"I don't understand! Who are you? What right do you have to tell me what to do?"

Seeing Su Ziyang's arrogant tone, Er Biao tugged at Su Ziyang's sleeve from behind and whispered, "Brother, let's run! A wise man doesn't fight a losing battle!"

Su Ziyang completely ignored Er Biao's little tricks towards him, and instead stared intently at the person who was leading the conversation.

"Damn! Idiot. Don't understand? We'll teach him a lesson!" Seeing that Su Ziyang was still stubborn, the leader waved his hand, ready to make Su Ziyang understand.

When Er Biao saw that Su Ziyang was still standing there dumbfounded, he immediately pulled off his belt, ready to whip him a couple of times, and then dragged Su Ziyang away.

But before Su Ziyang could make a move, Su Ziyang charged at seven or Er Biao burly men, wanting to vent all the beatings he had suffered over the past few days on these men.

When the group saw that Su Ziyang wasn't running but instead was charging towards them, they were all slightly taken aback.

In the instant they were stunned, Su Ziyang appeared before them. Then, with lightning speed, Su Ziyang used both hands and feet, kicking one man in the groin with his right foot, and then turning his fists into palms, quickly slashing the necks of the other two men.

The man who was kicked in the groin collapsed to the ground, clutching his crotch and howling in pain. The other two men who had their throats slashed were also coughing violently, tears streaming down their faces.

In an instant, three people were taken down. Er Biao behind Su Ziyang was stunned. Yes, he was stunned on the spot.

The group consisted of nine people, including the leader. Eight of them had the build of thugs, and Su Ziyang took down three of them in a second. The other five were even more bewildered than Er Biao; no one had expected this short guy to have such skills.

Before the five could react, Su Ziyang launched another attack, basically one move at a time, taking them down one by one. Su Ziyang only used three moves: striking the Qimen acupoint, kicking the groin, and stepping on the toes.

The method was simple yet effective. In less than a minute, all eight burly men went from standing to lying down, emitting varying degrees of groans.

The leader who had just been holding the phone turned to run away, but Su Ziyang caught up with him in two steps and then used a move that Yang Tianzheng usually used to throw himself, "Grasp the Sparrow's Tail".

The leader was already of similar build to Su Ziyang, so how could he withstand Su Ziyang's actions? The man felt a blur before his eyes and fell to the ground with a thud.

"Lie down on the ground and don't move, I won't hit you anymore!"

Su Ziyang pointed at the leader he had thrown to the ground and scolded him.

This man wouldn't have gotten up even without Su Ziyang scolding him; Su Ziyang had knocked him unconscious with that one fall.

"Ziyang, Ziyang! Holy crap..." Er Biao caught up with Su Ziyang Su Ziyang, patted his arm, then Su Ziyang shoulder. "My god, I thought you were just a scholar, this... this..."

"It's nothing, it's nothing!"

Su Ziyang flashed his signature harmless and refined smile.

However, in Er Biao's eyes, that smile was no longer so harmless.

"Wow, wow! Doctor Su, you're really skilled!" A person clapped his hands and walked out from the shadows.

"Master!" Su Ziyang was genuinely surprised to see that the person was Yang Tianzheng. "What are you doing here?"

"If I didn't come, how could I witness your invincible and heroic figure!" Yang Tianzheng said with a slightly teasing tone.

Su Ziyang scratched his head sheepishly. "Master, I had no choice!"

Er Biao had never met Yang Tianzheng, Yang Tianzheng had never met Er Biao either. When Er Biao came to cause trouble at the hospital that day, Yang Tianzheng saw that there were quite a few people, so he left immediately.

"What are you looking at me for! Call the police! You're not stupid, you know not to kill them!" Yang Tianzheng looked at the men groaning on the ground and scolded Su Ziyang.

Hearing his master scold him again, Su Ziyang knew that Yang Tianzheng truly not angry anymore.

It was already past nine o'clock at night when Su Ziyang took out his phone and called the older brother who had helped him deal with the medical dispute that day, "Hey, Brother Ming! I have a report to give!"

"Doctor Su, what's wrong?!" Brother Ming could hear police sirens on the other end of the phone.

"There are some thugs here who wanted to attack me! I've already subdued them! Can you come over here, Brother Ming?"

Su Ziyang didn't describe the specifics, he just said this.

Where are you? Be careful! We're coming right away!

Upon hearing that Su Ziyang was in trouble, Brother Ming asked for Su Ziyang's address and rushed over to Su Ziyang.

When Brother Ming and the other man arrived, they saw the burly men lying on the ground and looked slightly puzzled. Seeing Su Ziyang standing to the side, they quickly walked over. "What happened? What happened?"

"Ah, these guys tried to hit me! I just subdued them a bit so it would be easier for you to catch them!"

Su Ziyang grinned at Brother Ming.

When Ming Ge captured Yang Jinguang last time, Brother Ming knew that Su Ziyang and his group were different from ordinary people, but he never expected that Su Ziyang's fighting power would be so abnormal.

"This is the leader! Stop pretending to be dead, okay!" Su Ziyang kicked the man on the ground who was supposed to be the leader.

"Hey, don't do it, don't do it!" Brother Ming quickly stopped Su Ziyang.

"Okay, okay!" Su Ziyang stepped aside, Brother Ming helped the leader up.

"What's wrong? Can you speak?"

Brother Ming helped the man up and asked him a couple of questions, but the guy, seemingly possessed by an Oscar-worthy actor, kept his head down and refused to say a word.

Brother Ming saw that the man looked familiar under the lamplight, then lifted the man's face next to his eyes to take a closer look. "Oh my god! We've been looking for you! Were you the one who got into a fight at the Soaring Bull Barbecue Stall last week, Chen Yong?"

Upon hearing the police officer call out his name, Chen Yong pretended to look up and secretly glanced at Brother Ming out of the corner of his eye, then quickly lowered his head and continued to play dead.

"Alright! Stop pretending. Linlin, call a car and take them all back!"

After finishing with these people, Brother Ming shook Su Ziyang's hand. "You're my lucky star, Doctor Su. We've been looking for these kids for days!"

Su Ziyang: I never expected to run into such a coincidence. Before I knew it, I had gained another "good Samaritan" certificate.

Since there was no substantial evidence, it was impossible to bring Fu Xinyu in for questioning, but Su Ziyang didn't care.

It was 10 p. m. after the farce.

Su Ziyang was respectfully pouring tea for Yang Tianzheng.

"If I hadn't come to see you today, would you have ignored me for the next couple of days? I wouldn't dare drink Doctor Su's tea."

Yang Tianzheng didn't take the tea that Su Ziyang offered, but instead glared at Su Ziyang.

"Master, no! I sent you a message, but you didn't reply. I told you I went out and would continue practicing when I got back tonight!" Su Ziyang chuckled.

"You're talking nonsense. When did you send me WeChat?"

Yang Tianzheng slammed his hand on the table, took out his phone from his pocket, and opened his chat with Su Ziyang. There were indeed no messages.

Su Ziyang quickly put down his teacup, took out his phone, and found a red exclamation mark prominently displayed on their screens.

Su Ziyang scratched his head awkwardly and chuckled, "Hehe, Master! My phone seems to be out of credit; the message didn't go through. Could you take a look?"

As Su Ziyang spoke, he handed his phone to Yang Tianzheng. Yang Tianzheng saw that a message had indeed been sent, but it showed that the message had failed to send!

"Sigh." Yang Tianzheng sighed and, without saying a word, recharged Su Ziyang's phone with 100 yuan.

"Master, I've really gained a lot from my trip these past two days!"

Seeing that his master was no longer angry, Su Ziyang quickly changed the subject and recounted the story of Old Madam Liu.

"Is that so?" Yang Tianzheng was clearly unfamiliar with this massage method, his expression slightly surprised. "Next time you go, I'll go with you! Let's steal something! I won't have any tea, you rest! Training resumes tomorrow! You played well today, you've improved!"

Indeed, Su Ziyang's fighting ability has improved a lot after Yang Tianzheng's grueling training over this period of time; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to easily defeat Chen Yong and his group.

Yang Tianzheng glanced at Su Ziyang, asked Su Ziyang some basic questions about acupuncture, and then left.

After washing up, Su Ziyang began copying scriptures and meditating as usual.

Nothing more was said that night.

On Monday, the clinic wasn't particularly busy.

Su Ziyang had just warmed the stool when he heard Aunt Yu Xiushui's chattering voice.

"Oh, Xiao Su! Xiao Su!" Yu Xiushui greeted Su Ziyang warmly as she entered.

"Hey, Auntie Yu, have a seat!"

Su Ziyang offered his seat to Yu Xiushui, then noticed that Yu Xiushui.

"What are you looking at, Xiao Su? I'm not here for a doctor's visit today!" Yu Xiushui interrupted Su Ziyang 'Su Ziyang gaze with a smile as she saw him looking towards the door.

"Huh? You're not going to see a doctor?"

Su Ziyang didn't know what Yu Xiushui had come for, nor did he know how to continue the conversation.

"Haha, Xiao Su, I have something important to tell you. I originally wanted to tell you on WeChat, but it would seem more formal to say it in person!"

Aunt Yu Xiushui was in high spirits, holding Su Ziyang's hand and talking animatedly.

"You don't have a boyfriend, your aunt knows. Let me introduce you to someone! He's also a graduate student, he's graduated. He studies microbiology, which is related to your major! What do you think!"

Regardless of whether Su Ziyang agreed or not, Auntie Yu took out her phone and showed him the little girl's photo.

The little girl's photo was taken without any filters or makeup. She looked incredibly well-behaved. It was taken while she was standing in a laboratory, wearing a white lab coat.

Su Ziyang didn't understand why the Society for Microbiology was associated with Traditional Chinese Medicine, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Auntie..."

Before Su Ziyang could finish speaking, Yu Xiushui said, "Xiao Su, this young lady is from L County, not far from here. She works in Beijing, but she's resting at home recently. Look how pretty she is, and she's equally at home in public and domestic. If you think she's suitable, I'll arrange for you two to meet!"

For the first time, Su Ziyang experienced the feeling of an arranged marriage; Aunt Yu Xiushui's enthusiasm left Su Ziyang breathless.

"Stop! Stop! Auntie! Auntie!"

Su Ziyang quickly stopped Yu Xiushui from continuing.

"Auntie, how do you know people from L County!" Su Ziyang noticed the place very clearly: L County.

Because Old Madam Liu lives in L County!

"I'm from L County! What? You know this place?" Auntie Yu was successfully swayed by Su Ziyang and stopped mentioning matchmaking!

"Oh my, what a coincidence! I just went to your county yesterday. There's an old lady there who's incredibly skilled at massage, her surname is Liu. Have you heard of her?"

Seeing that he had successfully changed the subject, Su Ziyang continued to ask.

"Oh! No, not really. It's okay, as long as she becomes famous, I'll look into it for you! Do you need something?"

Yu Xiushui asked with some doubt.

"Something came up! Could you please inquire about it? It would be best if you knew someone there!" Su Ziyang said formally, Yu Xiushui nodded, indicating that she would inquire for Su Ziyang as soon as possible.

"What's up? Let's meet! Doctor Su! This girl is really lovely."

After agreeing to Su Ziyang's request, Auntie Yu immediately started recommending it to Su Ziyang again...
