This afternoon.
Wang Xiaoqiang once again stepped into the County Committee Family Courtyard and saw Tang Mingyuan again.
Tang Mingyuan, who suffered from severe heart disease, recovered after being treated by Wang Xiaoqiang's Spiritual Energy years ago. Later, his son Tang Guowei overcame infertility and gave him a grandson.
This made Tang Mingyuan even happier.
When a person is in a good mood, their health follows suit, so Tang Mingyuan hasn't had any major illnesses for several years and has remained healthy.
His only wish was to see Wang Xiaoqiang again and thank him personally.
Suddenly seeing Wang Xiaoqiang at his door without any warning, the surprise made Tang Mingyuan feel somewhat surreal until he held Wang Xiaoqiang's hand and finally realized it was indeed him.
"Old Tang is looking very well." Wang Xiaoqiang felt the old man's hand still had strength, indicating his health was good—perhaps even better than it was ten years ago when they first met—and he felt pleased.
Saving a life is a tremendous achievement; he felt a sense of accomplishment, and as his mood lifted, the "Light of Joy" within him grew brighter and larger...
In less than two short days back on Earth, he had grasped three realms. However, of these, he had the deepest understanding of the "Realm of Joy," as his life on Earth was indeed joyful with its many happy moments, making the power of the Light of Joy grow swiftly. It would become his greatest weapon.
"Thanks to you, Little Qiang, my life wouldn't have lasted beyond ten years ago." Old Tang said excitedly, holding Wang Xiaoqiang's hand with joy.
"Indeed, these ten years flew by. Time waits for no one!" Wang Xiaoqiang sighed, wanting to introduce his son and Little Sakura, yet fearing Old Tang might associate it with Jing Xueyan and bring about unnecessary awkwardness, he refrained from doing so.
Though he didn't introduce them, Tang Guowei, out of courtesy, still introduced Little Bao and Little Sakura to his father, Tang Mingyuan.
Tang Mingyuan stared at Little Bao for a moment, "Little Qiang, is your son this tall now?"
"Yes, Old Tang, he's tall, so he looks more mature. He's only eleven in virtual age." Wang Xiaoqiang replied.
"Wow, with this height, he'll surely be two meters tall someday." Tang Mingyuan said in admiration at Little Bao.
"Grandpa, I don't want to be that tall. Being so big, it'll be hard to find a wife," Little Bao chuckled.
"Haha, listen to you! There are plenty of tall girls out there, like that famous actress, what's her name Lin, Lin Zhi..."
"Grandpa, she's one of a kind," Little Bao knew Tang Mingyuan referred to the model Sister Zhilin and said, "Finding someone like that is hard..."
"Hey, you're too modest," Old Tang laughed, "With your qualities, you'll have no trouble finding anyone. Even international stars will be keen..."
"Grandpa, I still think the girls from Sanmiao Village are charming... hehe..." Little Bao glanced at Little Sakura, smiling bashfully.
Little Sakura shyly lowered her head.
"Old Tang, don't praise him too much, this boy is a real rascal, already getting mischievous," Wang Xiaoqiang glanced at his son and Little Sakura, speaking casually.
Little Sakura's face blushed.
Little Bao secretly clasped Little Sakura's hand with a silly grin.
Two blushes appeared on Little Sakura's delicate cheeks, lovely and endearing.
Little Sakura favored her mother, resembling a young Li Xianghong—1.7 meters tall, with a slender figure and two large, bright eyes on her attractive cheeks. It's no wonder Little Bao liked her.
As they joked, the Tang Family prepared the meal, which was plentiful.
Though they ate at home, the meal was no less than those in upscale city hotels, with a balanced mix of dishes—ten dishes and one soup. The liquor was also fine, including Wuliangye and Moutai... It being summer, they also prepared drinks and two types of foreign beer.
As the food was served, a boy around ten years old entered. The boy had a crew cut, a square face, high nose bridge, and big eyes—very handsome, somewhat resembling Tang Guowei. Seeing the boy enter, Little Bao exclaimed, "Tang Shaoxuan."
"Huh? Wang Xiaobao, why are you here?" The boy named Tang Shaoxuan asked in surprise. Although he and Wang Xiaobao were classmates, Wang Xiaobao had never visited his home before, so it was surprising to see him here suddenly.
"Haha, I didn't know this was your home," Little Bao laughed.
"Shaoxuan, come here, let Grandpa introduce you," Tang Mingyuan called his grandson Tang Shaoxuan over and pointed to Wang Xiaoqiang, "This is your Uncle Wang, also Little Bao's dad. Without your Uncle Wang, you wouldn't exist..."
Tang Shaoxuan was perplexed, looking confused and without understanding.
"Oh, Old Tang, let's not tell the child these things," Wang Xiaoqiang waved his hand, "Shaoxuan, that's a nice name. You and Little Bao are classmates!"
"Yes, uncle," Tang Shaoxuan stared at Wang Xiaoqiang, "Uncle, you look so young. If you went to a school parents' meeting, people would definitely think you were Little Bao's brother..."
"Uh, is that so? I indeed want to check out your school. I'll definitely attend next time," Wang Xiaoqiang replied, "By the way, Shaoxuan, how's Little Bao's performance at school? Is he naughty?"
"Not naughty, his grades are excellent! He's our school's little genius," Tang Shaoxuan said, somewhat sullen and disheartened.
Actually, Tang Shaoxuan was a great student, always excelling, and a fierce competitor. However, Wang Xiaobao always topped the class and grade in exams, leaving second place far behind. Not only was Tang Shaoxuan unable to claim the top grade, but he also had to settle for second in the class because he was in the same class as Little Bao.
In front of Wang Xiaobao, he always sensed defeat. Furthermore, Little Bao excelled athletically; the school's sports teacher wanted to train him further.
This was all anticipated by Wang Xiaoqiang, hence no great surprise. He just smiled casually, "Haha, really? He hasn't fallen in love at school, has he?"
Tang Shaoxuan seemed shy about the topic, being only ten years old, and said frankly, "No."
Many middle school students are dating, but neither Tang Shaoxuan nor Little Bao was involved—there were simply no girls at the school Little Bao liked; instead, he was attracted to Big Sister Sakura.
This boy preferred older girls, a trait he shared with his father.
"Come now, let's eat together. Let's talk while eating," Tang Mingyuan invited. Everyone sat down, filling up the large table with people and dishes—so lively...
Immersed in this joyful and harmonious atmosphere, the "Light of Joy" inside Wang Xiaoqiang shone brightly, spinning like a Taiji ball, growing and intensifying in power...
