FULL NOVELXO Chapter 145 - Buying the Fruit Tree
Su Ming offered a wry smile as he entered the house and retrieved a bottle of black mineral water.
“President Chen, you've been such a great help to me. Have some water to quench your thirst,” he said, placing the bottle in front of President Chen.
President Chen was visibly moved, nearly brought to tears. “This is far too valuable; I simply can't accept it!”
He was acutely aware of its worth. It was a cure for severe illness, a miraculous remedy. Wang Guohui's mother had been on the brink of death, yet she regained her health after consuming just half a bottle. And now, Su Ming was offering it to him!
“President Chen, I have plenty to spare,” Su Ming reassured him.
With a casual toss, Su Ming sent the bottle into President Chen's arms. Catching it quickly, President Chen delicately wiped it with his fine suit before setting it down with care. He knew that many would clamor to purchase such an item. Among his acquaintances were wealthy individuals plagued by grave illnesses who would surely seek out this wonder drug if they knew of its existence.
Yet both President Chen and Wang Guohui understood that Mr. Su was not in need of money. They shared an unspoken agreement to keep this secret, with Wang Guohui even instructing his staff to maintain silence on the matter.
President Chen treasured the bottle too much to drink from it. He was getting on in years, as was his wife, and they had both children and elderly to care for at home. His own parents may have passed away, but his in-laws were still with them. This elixir could prove essential in the future.
Currently in good health, President Chen had felt a surge of vitality after his last drink of Su Ming's concoction. He was astonished that Su Ming would gift him such a valuable medicine for the modest assistance he had provided.
A newfound vigor filled President Chen. He threw himself into his work with renewed zeal.
“President Chen, as I mentioned, I'm well-stocked,” Su Ming reminded him. “It's only right to share some with you after all the help you've given me.”
Hearing this, President Chen was on the verge of tears. His hard work had paid off. The daily grind had its rewards, and Mr. Su's generosity was proof of that. Even a lifelong laborer would feel the ache in their back ease with such gratitude.
President Chen had sampled that concoction, and now his body felt significantly more robust than before. He was somewhat weary, sure, but it was hardly worth mentioning.
With a clear objective in mind, President Chen set about his tasks with meticulous care. He simply wanted to spend more time in Su Ming's presence.
“Mr. Su, the fertilizer you've purchased is quite impressive. It's the best on the market at the moment. You certainly have an eye for quality,” he complimented.
“No worries, I can handle it myself. I grew up in the countryside; I'm used to physical labor,” President Chen assured.
He hurried over to where the fertilizer was stored. Having boasted about his strength, he was determined to live up to his words. But the sight of the fertilizer bags took him aback.
There was a mountain of bags, each weighing a hefty 100 kilograms. Such a weight would be a challenge for anyone not accustomed to regular heavy lifting. contemporary romance
Stealing a glance at Su Ming, President Chen felt a twinge of helplessness. He had claimed to be strong, but calling Mr. Su over now would be mortifying.
Resolved to try, President Chen inhaled deeply and positioned himself beside a bag. Placing his hands firmly on it, he hoisted the bag onto his shoulder with a grunt, then took another breath and found his balance.
His eyes went wide with astonishment. He could hardly believe he had managed to lift it. The bag was heavy, akin to an ordinary person hefting a large watermelon, but he had done it.
The revelation stunned him. He was no longer a young man, and in the past, he wouldn't have been able to lift such a weight without risking injury. But now, it seemed effortless, and he felt confident he could lift another.
It dawned on President Chen that his newfound strength was thanks to Su Ming's miraculous water. Could it really cure ailments and fortify the body?
His thoughts turned to his daughter. She had grown up comfortably, which had led to a bit of extra weight and poor physical fitness. Could this elixir improve her health as well?
He resolved to try it out when he returned home.
With his body invigorated, President Chen was overjoyed and threw himself into his work with even greater vigor.
Before long, he had completed the watering and fertilizing tasks.
Next, he meticulously cleaned Su Ming's farm vehicle until it was spotless. After sharing a meal with Su Ming, he departed with a sense of reluctance.
Su Ming headed over to the neighboring construction site.
Noticing that the workers were still laboring diligently, he advised them to take it easy and provided them with some food. Having done so, Su Ming returned to rest.
