Chapter 505

Su Xinghui steadied himself and asked Song Qiaoli, "Aunt Song, do you have any safflower oil at home?"

Song Qiaoli nodded and said, "Yes."

Song Qiaoli stood up, went to a cabinet, took out a bottle of safflower oil, handed it to Su Xinghui, and took a small plastic stool, placed it in front of the sofa where Lu Xiaoya was sitting, and then she sat on a sofa and started watching TV.

Lu Zhenghong also started reading the newspaper. Neither of the couple looked over here. Su Xinghui was still a bit uncomfortable. After all, this was rubbing Lu Xiaoya's feet in their home, which could be considered intimate contact.

Lu Xiaoya pouted and said, "Sit."

Su Xinghui sat down on the small stool, placed Lu Xiaoya's left foot on his knee, opened the bottle of safflower oil, poured some into his palm, and used his internal energy to rub her foot. The living room was suddenly filled with the smell of safflower oil.

After all, she had already been massaged by Su Xinghui once, so this time Lu Xiaoya's endurance was much stronger. She didn't whimper again, but instead felt that Su Xinghui's massage was particularly comfortable.

Su Xinghui massaged Lu Xiaoya for about half an hour. Lu Zhenghong and his wife didn't look over here at all. They were afraid that Su Xinghui would be embarrassed. Su Xinghui naturally knew this, which made him feel particularly moved.

After massaging for half an hour, Su Xinghui carefully observed Lu Xiaoya's injury. The bruised area had slowly turned from dark blue back to white, leaving only some faint blue color, which meant that her bruising had slowly dispersed.

Su Xinghui said, "Xiaoya, rest at home for another two days, and there will basically be no problems."

Lu Xiaoya said, "Your massage is really comfortable. Why don't you come and help me massage it again tomorrow? Wouldn't it get better faster? I have to go to work the day after tomorrow, there's an article I need to rush."

Su Xinghui said, "Alright, Uncle Lu asked me to come over tomorrow noon, so I'll help you massage it again then."

Lu Xiaoya said happily, "That's good, I'll wait for you at home tomorrow."

Su Xinghui stood up to say goodbye and said, "Uncle Lu, Aunt Song, I'm leaving then."

Lu Zhenghong nodded, and Song Qiaoli said, "Leaving already? Then come over tomorrow noon!"

Su Xinghui nodded, waved to Lu Xiaoya again, and left the Lu family. He went to the Provincial Party Committee guesthouse to open a room and stayed for the night.

The next day was Sunday. This morning, Su Xinghui bought some things and went to Jiangcheng University to visit Professor Qin and his wife.

Professor Qin was still practicing calligraphy at home. Seeing Su Xinghui come, he smiled and said, "Xinghui, come, take a look at how this piece of calligraphy is today?"

Su Xinghui looked at the calligraphy. It turned out to be Du Mu's "Autumn Thoughts": "The heat goes away, the shackles are loosened, drifting in the middle of autumn. Seen in the pond during light rain, known by the collar and sleeves in the good wind. Hair is short and not combed enough, the pillow is cool and leaning idly. Having passed this in my life, why is everything uneven?"

Su Xinghui recited this poem once and nodded, "You wrote this poem freely and easily. It seems you are in a good mood today!"

Professor Qin laughed and said, "You can tell I'm in a good mood?"

Su Xinghui nodded and said, "Of course I can tell."

Professor Qin said, "Then do you know why I'm in a good mood?"

Su Xinghui said, "Then let me guess. I guess, it must be that autumn has arrived, the weather has cooled down, so you are in a good mood."

Professor Qin laughed loudly and said, "You really understand me! Yes, autumn is my favorite season. Look, it rained a little today, and the weather is much cooler. It's comfortable!"

Professor Qin was fat, and what he disliked most was summer, as he felt it was too hot. What he liked most was autumn, neither cold nor hot, and with abundant produce. Su Xinghui naturally knew this personality of his, and after seeing the calligraphy he wrote, he guessed it right.

Professor Qin asked Su Xinghui again why he came to Jiangcheng again. Su Xinghui told Professor Qin the reason for coming to Jiangcheng. Professor Qin nodded and said, "You paint well, you should participate in more art exhibitions."

The master and apprentice chatted congenially for an hour or two. The teacher's wife came into the study and said, "Xinghui, have lunch at our house."

Su Xinghui stood up and said, "Teacher, teacher's wife, I have to say goodbye. I promised to have lunch at Lu Xiaoya's house, her father has something to find me for."

Professor Qin said, "If you have serious business, go ahead."

Su Xinghui said goodbye to the two old people and left the Qin family.
