Zhang Muguang couldn’t believe it, his voice suddenly filled with excitement.
Si Mingjing smiled joyfully. "That’s right, senior brother, I am your junior sister, here to seek refuge with you."
Si Mingjing took out a letter from her pocket and handed it to Zhang Muguang.
"This is a letter my master asked me to give you."
Zhang Muguang, unable to wait, opened the envelope and unfolded the yellowed paper, reading the family letter with tears brimming in his eyes.
Indeed, it was his grandmother’s handwriting. He had seen it many times in his grandmother’s medical case manuscripts. The letter was filled with an elder’s expectations and affection for a younger relative.
Zhang Muguang wiped away his tears, his lips trembling slightly from the overwhelming emotion. "Is my grandmother in good health? Does she have any other messages?"
Si Mingjing still remembered her master’s words when she left Prison Star: "Once you arrive on Earth, you will be a stranger in a strange land, but you can seek out my grandson. My grandson, Zhang Muguang, is a decent man, and if he knows you are my disciple, he will certainly treat you as family. From then on, he will be your senior brother, so don’t stand on ceremony with him."
Although Si Mingjing was meeting Zhang Muguang for the first time, she felt a sense of kinship. The connection between people is strange. You can often tell if there’s a bond from the first glance. If you don’t dislike someone at first sight, you can generally become friends. If you feel nothing towards someone from the start, it’s unlikely they’ll enter your social circle.
Si Mingjing’s mind stirred, and she said, "My master is doing well, and perhaps before long, you will be able to see her."
Si Mingjing wanted to make the cancer treatment public to acquire a pardon for her master. If her master made a significant contribution to the world, she was sure she would be pardoned and brought back to Earth. She was extremely confident about this.
Zhang Muguang, clutching the family letter tightly, asked, "Junior sister, do you mean there’s a chance my grandmother might return to Earth?"
Upon hearing Zhang Muguang call her junior sister, Si Mingjing understood he had recognized her identity.
Si Mingjing was pleased. "Yes, but not just yet. I will explain this to you in detail later."
Si Mingjing gestured for Zhang Muguang to be patient and then walked over to Li Yuelan and Sun Peng, instructing them, "Although Yuanyuan has improved, you must still take the medicine my senior brother has prescribed on time. In the future, be careful not to disregard medical advice. If there are any complications due to negligence, Zhang’s Clinic will not be held responsible."
"Understood, understood, it was all because we parents were too anxious. Thank you, our whole family will remember your kindness."
Li Yuelan, moved to tears, grabbed Si Mingjing’s hands and expressed her gratitude for a full five minutes.
Li Yuelan also shot her husband, Sun Peng, a meaningful glance. Sun Peng, engrossed in joyfully holding his daughter, didn’t react immediately. Li Yuelan nudged him. "Aren’t you going to apologize?" she urged.
Sun Peng reluctantly handed his daughter to Granny Sun and walked over to Zhang Muguang to formally apologize.
"Doctor Zhang, I am sorry for my behavior earlier. You are not a quack doctor. Thank you for saving my daughter."
The Sun Family relatives all calmed down, praising Si Mingjing for her excellent medical skills, causing no further fuss and even suggesting to present a banner of honor to Zhang’s Clinic.
"There’s no need for a banner. Questioning my medical skills is minor, but delaying the child’s treatment is a serious matter. Yuanyuan is lucky to have met my junior sister; otherwise, with my medical skills, I might not have been able to help her recover as she has now." Zhang Muguang didn’t want to claim credit and, with lingering fears, gave careful instructions for the future medication.
