Initially, Xiao Qiang had intended to leave with Li Xiaoyun after treating Sun Xinyue's illness, but Sun Hongtu insisted on his staying. He proposed, since they were to remove the Gu worm from Sun Xinyue the following morning, it was more convenient for Xiao Qiang to stay overnight at the Sun residence. Unable to turn down such a generous invitation, Xiao Qiang had no choice but to accept.
Having successfully treated the young lady of the Sun Family, Xiao Qiang was naturally treated enthusiastically. After a sumptuous banquet, Xiao Qiang, Li Xiaoyun, Liu Shuang, and others were escorted as guests to their rooms.
Zhao Wenqi did want to chat with Xiao Qiang, but as the granddaughter-in-law of the Sun Family, it was inappropriate for her to appear too intimate with him at this time. They made eye contact several times, and Xiao Qiang indicated to her that they would chat when they had time.
