CHAPTER 21: CHAPTER 21: THE MOST IMPORTANT THING FOR MEN IS PHYSICAL STRENGTH

The early morning air was fresh, and Qianxun quickly arrived at last night’s location.

The area that had been wrecked by Rat Demon had been repaired in full, as if nothing had ever happened here.

Qianxun kept her pace unchanged, passing by the spot and running two more laps before deciding to head back for breakfast.

By then, Su He was panting heavily.

"Big sis, aren’t you, aren’t you tired at all?" Su He asked, his face flushed with exhaustion.

Seeing this, Qianxun couldn’t help but curve her lips upward, teasing, "Xiao He, the most important thing for a man is physical strength. You really aren’t up to scratch here, too weak."

Upon hearing this, Su He’s face instantly turned a deep red, and he became inarticulate.

"Sis! What... what are you saying? I’m in good shape!" Su He quickly puffed out his chest.

Qianxun let out a playful smile, then said, "Alright, it’s time to go back home for a meal."

Having said that, Qianxun leisurely strolled back to the neighborhood.

...

Watching Qianxun’s retreating figure, Su He involuntarily clenched his fists, vowing to himself: I definitely must exercise more. I can’t let my sister think less of me!

Then, he immediately chased after Qianxun.

Because Father Su and Mrs. Su both had the weekends off, the whole family went out together after breakfast.

After finding the music store, and recalling Su Hao’s cancer, an idea struck Qianxun. Suddenly clutching her head with a contorted face, she said, "Ah, mom, my head hurts so much."

Upon hearing these words, Su Qing immediately panicked.

"What’s wrong? Did your wound reopen? Let’s go, hurry to the hospital," Su Qing urged in haste.

Right after, they all hurriedly took Qianxun to the hospital.

...

Upon their arrival at the hospital, the doctor reexamined Qianxun then wrapped up her wounds, "It’s okay, the wound is healing well. The sudden headache is probably a sequelae from the injury, you just need some rest to recover."

Qianxun nodded at the doctor’s words, then whispered, "Uncle Doctor, there’s something I’d like to ask for your help with."

"What is it?" the doctor asked.

"It’s like this: a friend’s dad was diagnosed with cancer some time ago, and I’m worried about my parents’ health. But they’re reluctant to spend money on health checks, so I was wondering if you could tell them the hospital has free medical examinations. I can secretly pay for the check-ups. Could you do that?" Qianxun explained.

Ever since she was young, Su Qianxun had always been top of her class, and she had received quite a few scholarships. Su Qing and her husband had never asked for her scholarship money, so Qianxun still had enough to afford the health checks for her parents.

...

When the doctor heard Qianxun’s request, he immediately understood.

Looking at Qianxun with gentle eyes, he nodded and said, "Okay, I understand now, you’re a good child."

Nowadays, not many people are willing to come in for health checks.

But by the time the disease manifests and they come for a check-up, it’s often too late.

This young lady was truly filial.

So, when the examination room door opened, the doctor said to Su Hao and Su Qing, "Comrades, the hospital currently has a free medical check-up program for the public. You might be interested in taking a look, for your own peace of mind."

On hearing this, Qianxun promptly said, "Dad, mom, since it’s like this, you should go get checked. I remember that a classmate’s parent at school was found to have cancer!"

Stunned by these words, Su Hao and Su Qing hesitated but then nodded their heads.

Afterward, the doctor specially called a nurse to lead the two for a check-up, while Qianxun had Su He accompany their parents, as she went to settle the payment.
