Tang Man smiled and said, "That's great. The Wang family should have been wiped out long ago."

Tang Ling smiled and continued, "Also, I have found a new place for you. Once things here are settled, I will move with you. I will also be returning to Beijing soon."

"Moving?" Xie Yan and Tang Man both looked at Tang Ling.

After a few seconds, Xie Yan spoke up and said, "Brother, thank you for your kindness, but I may not be able to leave. People like us who have been sent down to the countryside must follow the arrangements from above regarding where to live and what to do."

Tang Man knew all the rules Xie Yan mentioned, and she had no intention of moving randomly according to her elder brother's arrangement, but she couldn't help but retort, "They arranged for you to be a village doctor, don't you have the guts to not treat people?"

Xie Yan smiled and said, "That's different. The higher-ups arranged for me to be a village doctor, so I'll do it. But it's my freedom to decide who to treat and who not to treat. If the higher-ups dare to force me, I can prescribe random medicines for them, and I won't be responsible if they have problems after taking them."

"Tsk! Do you have any medical ethics left?" Tang Ling said half-jokingly, but there was no hint of blame in his words.

Although he didn't know that the demoted personnel would have their hair cut, he had heard a lot about Xie Yan being bullied. He always thought that Xie Yan was a very tolerant person. If it were him, he would never be able to treat the bullied person.

Xie Yan understood that Tang Ling had no other intentions, and replied with a smile, "They are not worthy of my medical ethics."

Tang Ling shook his head helplessly. "So I found a place for you where you can practice your medical ethics. Don't worry, all procedures are legal and compliant. Someone should come down to notify you to move in the next two days."

Being able to leave here and not having to face anyone here anymore is simply the happiest thing!

Tang Man was very excited. She hugged Tang Ling's arm tightly and said with a smile, "Thank you, brother."

"Thank you, big brother!" The smile on Xie Yan's face became brighter and brighter. The people and things here had already disgusted him to the extreme. It would be great if he could leave.

Tang Ling smiled and rubbed Tang Man's head. "After what happened last time, more than half of the people in the village don't like you two. If you continue to stay here, I won't feel at ease even if you go back. There are still a few months left. After you move, focus on reviewing and return to Beijing City as soon as possible. Only then can we feel at ease."

"I know!" Tang Man responded, and suddenly realized that Tang Ling seemed to have said before that he would go back after helping them move. As a younger sister, she should be sad for a while, so the smile on her face was immediately replaced by a bitter face. "Brother, you are going back so soon?"

"Yes! I have to go back eventually, and I can't stay here with you forever. Fortunately, Xie Yan is here to take care of you, so my parents and I can rest assured."

After Tang Ling finished speaking, Xie Yan immediately promised, "Don't worry, brother. I will take good care of her."

Maybe he couldn't do other things, but he could take good care of Tang Man.

Tang Ling nodded but didn't respond.

After dinner, at Tang Ling's request, Tang Man and Xie Yan stayed in the main room to do their homework. Tang Ling washed the dishes by himself. After washing the dishes, he picked up the Chinese textbook and read it while thinking seriously.

Tang Man accidentally looked up and saw Tang Ling also reading a book seriously. "Brother, are you going to take the college entrance examination too?"

"Yeah!" Tang Ling raised his head and smiled at Tang Man. "Dad wants me to try to enter a military academy. He wanted me to go to college before, but I was too stubborn to listen to him. After I joined the army, I realized that even with my dad's support, it would be difficult to make a name for myself in the army without enough education. It's just right that the three of us are taking the exam together this time, so we can cheer each other up and strive to get into college."

"We can all pass the exam." A smile as bright as a flower bloomed on Tang Man's lips.

Xie Yan looked up and saw this scene. He was stunned. Her smile was bright, like the gentle and warm sunshine in winter. Two years ago, it was this bright and brilliant smile that pulled him out of the dark and damp pool.

Otherwise, he would probably be just a pile of bones by now.

"Cough!" Tang Ling's dry cough came from my ears.

Xie Yan looked away in panic, not daring to look at her again.

At night, everything around was quiet. Tang Man lazily lay on the recliner, looking up at the dark sky. There were no stars tonight. This was the first time she saw a starless night since she came here.

Tang Ling sat beside and talked to his sister in a low voice. He was about to leave, and he always wanted to say something more to his sister. Even though he had already said everything he needed to say, he couldn't help but find topics to chat with his sister.

"It seems like the weather is going to change." Tang Man looked at the dark night sky, feeling a little depressed. Because of her wood-related abilities, she could feel that the plants around her had become different. She had had this feeling before, and it was a sign of rain.

"Boom!" As if to confirm Tang Man's words, as soon as Tang Man finished speaking, a loud "boom" was heard in his ears, followed by a flash of lightning that streaked across the night sky without warning.

Before Tang Man could react, she was embraced in a strong embrace.

Tang Ling hugged the treasure tightly in his arms, patted her back gently, and whispered to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, brother is here, brother is here..."

Tang Man looked at the raindrops that suddenly fell from the sky and blinked. Could she say that she was not afraid?

What's there to be afraid of thunder? She has never been afraid of thunder since she can remember.

But she didn't dare say such words. The original owner was afraid of thunder. She had been afraid of it since she was a child. Every time there was thunder, she would cry and look for her parents and brother. She had to hide in their arms to feel at ease.

"What's wrong?" Xie Yan came out of the house and was a little worried when he saw the brother and sister hugging each other.

"Manman is afraid of thunder." Tang Ling explained, picked up Tang Man, turned around and put her in Xie Yan's arms.

Xie Yan subconsciously caught Tang Man and looked at Tang Ling with confusion.

"Go back to your room and sleep with Manman at night. When there's thunder, she won't be alone and will be so scared that she'll cry and won't be able to sleep."

I don’t have that.

Tang Man opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but swallowed the words back. She buried her head in Xie Yan's chest, feeling aggrieved and speechless.

Woohoo! Why are you so afraid of thunder? Now I have become a protected animal.

Xie Yan opened his mouth, he wanted to refuse, after all, there was nothing between him and Tang Man, but the words came to his lips but he swallowed them back. He couldn't say it. They had played the role of a loving couple for seven days, and his eldest brother was about to leave, so he couldn't let the secret out at this time.

Seeing Xie Yan standing there like a log, Tang Ling glared at him and said, "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and take her back. If she cries, you will be responsible for comforting her."

"Then... Big Brother, you should go to bed early." Xie Yan forced a smile and quickly carried Tang Man back to the room.

Knowing that Tang Man was afraid of thunder, Xie Yan put her in bed and did not dare to leave. He stayed close to her and patted her back gently. However, he felt that this action was a bit too intimate. He could not help but whispered, "How about I call my brother in and let him accompany you."

"Are you sick?"

"Ah?" Xie Yan lowered his head and looked at Tang Man with confusion.
