Chapter 40
Sheng Guang
The experts in the capital kept calculating Guo Miao’s invention, exclaiming again and again.
Meanwhile, Guo Miao was taking a walk with Sheng Guang on the beach in Haicheng.
Sheng Guang was holding a cane, but his pace was obviously faster than an ordinary blind man’s. He was also more sensitive to obstacles.
“I can see more light now.”
Sheng Guang wasn’t born blind, so he had sensed light before. After Guo Miao’s treatment for a few days, he could already see the outline of things.
“It’s working well so far, but it’s possible that the recovery of your vision will slow down in the future. Mr. Sheng, you might have to undergo short-sighted treatment for a while.”
Sheng Guang shook his head. “As long as I can see and pick up my brush again, even if I have thousand-degree myopia, it won’t be a problem.”
Guo Miao nodded. She brought a bowl of medicine that she had prepared in advance and handed it to Sheng Guang. “You’ll need to drink this medicine for another 14 days. I’ll come back to see the results after 14 days.”
Sheng Guang drank the bitter Chinese medicine in one go.
“I’ll keep drinking it.”
This medicine was very bitter, but as long as it could cure his eyes, it was better than anything else.
He took out the things he had prepared and placed them in Guo Miao’s hands.
“These are the properties I bought in Haicheng. I’ll get a lawyer to help you with the transfer procedures and the treatment fees.”
Guo Miao thought for a moment and only accepted the card for the treatment fee. “I’ll take this one. As for the rest, Mr. Sheng, you can draw me another piece when you’ve recovered.”
Shengguang smiled. “Not just one, even a hundred won’t do. What kind of painting do you want?”
Guo Miao thought for a moment, then shook her head. “I haven’t thought about it yet. I’ll tell you when I’ve thought about it.”
The two of them walked for a while before Guo Miao took her leave.
Now, the recovery of Sheng Guang’s eyes required a huge amount of energy, so he needed more sleep than ordinary people. She did not want to disturb her patient’s sleep.
Guo Miao had just walked out of the villa when she saw the Guo family’s Rolls Royce parked at the entrance. She was a little confused. When did the Guos start sending people to pick her up? It was really strange.
“Second Miss, Madam would like to invite you to the car.” The Butler smiled and opened the door for her.
Guo Miao frowned. ‘What’s wrong with Cheng Yu today? Why would she come to pick me up?’
“I see that blind man.” Cheng Yu looked at Guo Miao and went straight to the point. She frowned as she looked at her daughter who had been lost and then found again.
At first, she thought that this daughter of hers came from the mountains and was not very sensible. She did not expect her to excel so well in her studies. This matter temporarily satisfied her vanity.
But recently, a lady said that Guo Miao often accompanied a blind man for walks.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yu was a little curious. When she saw that the other party was not only an adult but also a real blind man, she was a little angry.
Why did her daughter hang out with strange people every day?
“Why do you go for a walk with that blind man every day? The last time Madam Zhang came to the beach, she saw you two taking a walk together. When she mentioned it, those rich ladies laughed at me for a long time.”
There were a few rich ladies who were good friends of Cheng Yu’s, and they knew about Guo Miao’s existence.
“What’s wrong? I am free to befriend who I like,” Guo Miao said indifferently.
“Although you’re good at your studies and competitions, you can’t be reckless. It’s not good for the reputation of the Guo family for you to go around making friends with these strange people every day,” said Wang Yao. Cheng Yu’s face was red with anger.
Guo Miao’s expression didn’t change as she laughed in her heart.
‘Reputation, reputation, what else does this family have in their minds other than reputation and face?’
“I have the freedom to make friends. What does it have to do with you?”
Hearing Guo Miao talk back, Cheng Yu was even more furious, “What do you mean? And now you dare to talk back to me? What did your father teach you in the countryside? Don’t you know that we’re about to hold a banquet to announce your identity? And now you’re still messing around here.”
“My father taught me to love my family, but he has never placed more importance on reputation than family. You’re putting the cart before the horse.” Guo Miao sneered.
She didn’t care about the banquet or the reputation of the Guo family. She didn’t care about Chengyu either. All she wanted to do was to help Guo Fu and Xuxu lead a good life.
As for the Guo family of Haicheng, she just wanted to draw a clear line with them as soon as possible.
“A country bumpkin! What’s so good about him? Your father is the president of the Haicheng Group, not that country bumpkin!”
Hearing this, Guo Miao became angry. “What do you mean? You’re slandering the father who raised me. ”
Cheng Yu was about to go crazy from anger, and said fiercely, “Did your adoptive father teach you to talk back to me like this? I have to find him and settle this score!”
