In a restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere not far from the county hospital, a group of people were having a meal.
Seated at the head of the table was an elderly man with white hair—Qin Helun, the same man who had been playing chess in the hospital garden that morning. Beside him sat another white-haired man, the calligrapher Wang Shihe, whom Lin Fei had met briefly at the market a few days prior. Also at the table were Qin Helun’s disciples, Lu Feng and Cui Zhihe, along with several other leaders and staff from local cultural and sports institutions.
"Little Feng came all the way to see me today, and I had to beg and plead with the hospital doctors just to come out for a bite of something decent! Sigh, when you get old and your body starts failing you, it’s truly a helpless feeling," Qin Helun remarked with a soft sigh after taking a bite of steamed sea bass.
