Chapter: 5340

He thought about it and turned around, retracing his steps along the path he had taken before.

But even after walking all the way to the school gate, there was still no response from the ring.

Lei Chen grew impatient and muttered to himself: "You only jumped when I left last time. Why not this time? Are you asleep or haven't you found your bearings yet? Maybe I should take you to the underground garage of Tongchen's office building to get a feel for it again?"

The ring gave him no feedback, leaving him with no choice but to go back to the parking lot, prepare to leave, and then head back to the underground parking garage of Tongchen's high-rise building to try his luck again.

He had just driven out of the parking lot when his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and was taken aback when he saw that it was Chen Xiaohua, the granddaughter of Shi Tianzhi.

Lei Chen hadn't seen this pair for a very long time. He knew that Shi Tianzhi had opened a medical clinic in Jinling and was working together with Chen Xiaohua to save lives, but due to recent events, he hadn't been able to visit them recently.

Moreover, this pair rarely bothered him during the day, so he thought it must be something related to the clinic that was taking up their time. He didn't want to disturb them, so he didn't take the initiative to contact them.

So when Chen Xiaohua suddenly called him out of the blue, Lei Chen's first thought was that something must have happened with her and Shi Tianzhi.

He immediately answered the phone and said: "Xiaohua, it's been a while since you've called me."

Chen Xiaohua's voice sounded sad as she said: "Lei Master... I'm calling to say goodbye..."

"What's goodbye for?" Lei Chen furrowed his brow and asked her, "What's going on? Is it because you and Shi Tianzhi got into trouble?"

"Not really..." Chen Xiaohua sighed and said in a faint tone, "It's my grandfather who is preparing to close the clinic and return to Yanjing..."

"Return to Yanjing?" Lei Chen subconsciously asked her, "I remember Shi Tianzhi mentioned that he would settle down in Jinling from now on. This is only after a year or so, why does he suddenly want to leave?"

"This... how should I say it? It's my grandfather's decision anyway. I have no choice... He has already removed the clinic's signboard and plans to leave tomorrow. Originally, he didn't intend to tell me about it because he felt ashamed of saying goodbye in person. He wanted to wait until after he left to call and apologize..."

Chen Xiaohua spoke softly, then suddenly began to sob, stifling her tears and saying, "But Little Zhao can't bear to leave... can't bear Jinling or Master Lei... so I called to ask you to please persuade my grandfather..."

Lei Chen immediately said without hesitation, "Don't cry, Little Zhao. Tell me where you are now?"

"We're still at the clinic..." Chen Xiaohua stifled her tears and said, "My grandfather plans to wrap everything up tonight."

"Okay!" Lei Chen said right away, "Wait for me at the clinic. I'm coming over now!"

When Lei Chen arrived at Shi Tianzhi's Jing Shen Hall in his car, he found that the hall's signboard had already been removed and was carelessly discarded on one side.

At the same time, a red silk-wrapped signboard was placed at the entrance, temporarily obscuring what was written on it.

When Lei Chen arrived at Jing Shen Hall, Shi Tianzhi was with Chen Xiaozhao and a young apprentice, tidying up various medicines on the shelves.

Chen Xiaozhao saw Lei Chen walk in and excitedly shouted, "Master Lei!"

Then she quickly ran towards Lei Chen, threw herself into his arms, and burst into tears.

Lei Chen hurriedly asked her, "What's wrong, Xiaozhao? Please tell me what's going on."

Shi Tianzhi, who had just noticed Lei Chen's expression, was taken aback and then looked down with a guilty conscience, sighing, "Master Lei... How did you come here? Is it because Little Xiaozhao told you something?" JrNovels.com
