Chapter 167 Give up Xia Family_1

~5 min read 919 words

Upon hearing Yin Tian’s words, Xia Dongliu also let out a long sigh, "Ah..."

He didn’t explain anything.

But that sigh said a lot.

Yin Tian fell silent.

He definitely couldn’t go asking Lord Long or Qiao for money just because of financial issues, and all the money he had was already given to Su Qinwei; from now on, he had to find a way to deal with the money issue on his own.

"Fine, I’ll take care of this,"

said Yin Tian softly.

Xia Dongliu, however, shook his head, "No need, I’ve already sent the kid from Beihai back to bring Old Mr. Xia over and then we’ll sell whatever needs to be sold from Su Hang’s inheritance. From now on, the Su Hang Xia Family will be no more."

With these words, Yin Tian was stupefied as he looked at Xia Dongliu.

The Su Hang Xia Family was built up by Mr. Xia and two previous generations to get to its current standing.

Yet, Xia Dongliu was planning to give up the Su Hang Xia Family!

That was a huge sacrifice!

Yin Tian’s eyes flickered slightly.

The decline of the Su Hang Xia Family was in large part due to the main Xia Family branch.

He absolutely couldn’t allow such a thing to happen!

Looking at Yin Tian who was standing there in a daze, Xia Dongliu managed a forced smile, extended his hand, and patted Yin Tian on the shoulder, "It’s okay, we will just have to live like a second-generation rich from now on."

How could Yin Tian not hear the bitterness in Xia Dongliu’s words?

He took a deep breath, didn’t continue speaking, but turned his head to Zhao Wanlin, "Do you have paper and pen?"

"Yes."

Zhao Wanlin spoke and directly took out a pen and a small notebook from his pocket and handed them to Yin Tian.

Yin Tian took the paper and pen and began to write.

Soon after, Yin Tian tore off the top sheet of paper, "Gather everything that is needed from this list."

Zhao Wanlin glanced at the various herbs on the list subconsciously and frowned slightly.

He considered himself to have looked through many ancient texts, including quite a few that had long been lost.

However, he couldn’t distinguish what Yin Tian had written down, nor what they were intended for!

Despite being puzzled, Zhao Wanlin didn’t waste words and simply nodded, then left the hospital room.

Yin Tian sat next to Xia Nianbing, watching her peaceful sleeping face without speaking, only reaching out to gently hold Xia Nianbing’s hand.

Xia Dongliu glanced at Yin Tian, shook his head slightly, and then left the hospital room quietly, leaving Yin Tian and Xia Nianbing alone together.

About half an hour later, Zhao Wanlin returned to the hospital room with a grave expression.

Just seeing Zhao Wanlin’s face, Yin Tian knew there must be a problem.

"What’s wrong?" he asked softly.

Zhao Wanlin hesitated for a moment before finally saying, "Master Yin, we have everything else that you need, but that Fire-Repelling Vine simply isn’t available. I haven’t even heard of it."

Yin Tian’s brow wrinkled slightly.

The Fire-Repelling Vine grew deep in the mountains and had limited medicinal value, so it wasn’t categorized as an herb. But this was an essential element for treating Xia Nianbing’s condition.

Zhao Wanlin saw Yin Tian frown and felt very guilty, thinking he couldn’t help Yin Tian with anything.

Then, something occurred to him, and he immediately looked at Yin Tian, "Master Yin, there is a place in the provincial city that specializes in selling all sorts of rare and strange items, maybe we should check it out?"

Yin Tian was silent for a moment before nodding.

Right now, he had to search for the Fire-Repelling Vine as much as possible, not giving up any chance.

"Let’s go,"

said Yin Tian, preparing to leave the hospital room with Zhao Wanlin.

However, just as the two of them had stepped out of the room, they saw Chen Yu approaching from a distance.

"How did you get here?"

Yin Tian looked at Chen Yu in surprise, not expecting him to come.

Chen Yu appeared a bit shy, twining his fingers together, "How is Miss Xia doing inside?"

"Her life isn’t in danger, but to deal with the burns on her body, we still need to find a certain herb,"

Yin Tian said, revealing their current predicament.

"What are you planning to do now?"

"Zhao Wanlin is thinking of taking us to buy some things."

"Then..."

Chen Yu hesitated before finally mustering the courage to speak, "Can I go with you?"

Yin Tian looked at Chen Yu intently and then cracked a smile, "Sure."

"Really!?"

Chen Yu looked at Yin Tian with incredible joy, not expecting Yin Tian to agree so readily.

"Is there any doubt?"

Yin Tian smiled at Chen Yu, "Let’s go."

The three of them left the hospital, and Zhao Wanlin immediately drove Yin Tian and Chen Yu to the place he had mentioned.

The street looked just like a night market except the stalls on both sides of the road sold a jumble of different things, not food.

"There’s a place like this in the city?"

Chen Yu, following beside Yin Tian, was full of wonder, "I didn’t even know about it."

"This is also known as Ghost Street,"

Zhao Wanlin explained to Chen Yu with a smile.

"Many things you can’t find elsewhere, people come here to try their luck."
