CHAPTER 229: Guo Tao

.

In a small shop on the outskirts of Tiān Shù Chéng, a boy no older than 15 was sweeping the shop's floor.

His name was Guo Tao, and he was a native of this city.

After the death of his parents several years ago, he and his sister were the only ones left.

To provide for her, he decided to take on any odd jobs he could find in the city, earning just enough for both of them.

Although life was difficult, he managed to overcome adversity one way or another, 

until two years ago, when his sister fell ill.

Unable to afford any treatment, even the doctor he had tried so hard to convince to see her admitted that he had no idea of ​​her condition.

Despite his despair, Guo Tao had been tirelessly searching for medicines that might cure her ever since.

At the moment, his sister's condition was stable, but only to a certain extent.
