Chapter 382: Chapter 223: A Hundred People, a Hundred Ways
Tang Luo squatted beside Luo Ye and whispered: "The poor old lady, fell while going to the restroom and fractured her pelvis. She has three sons and a daughter, yet not a single one of them has come to stay with her. Her lunch was a steamed bun bought by the nurse. Look how hungry she was. How can her children be so heartless?"
Luo Ye sighed lightly, "There are all kinds of people in the world, Tangtang. Don’t say I’m too harsh, but if you give the old lady something, there’s only one possibility. Her kids would take it."
"Does that mean we can’t even help?" Tang Luo looked dejected.
"I will talk to Dr. Zhong later. Quietly tell Aunt Miao that when the old lady’s children are not around, she could secretly give her some nutritional supplements. But make it clear to not give her too much. We can’t be feeding the young, capable ingrates."
"Got it." Tang Luo picked up a box of bird’s nest: "How about we use this as a bribe?"
"That’s not good. If other doctors see it, it won’t look good for Dr. Zhong." Luo Ye patted Xia Qianqian: "Qianqian, thanks for your hard work. I’ll take a trip to the doctor’s office now."
Xia Qianqian pouted unhappily: "Luoluo, don’t be so formal or I won’t talk to you."
"Qianqian, work hard. If you don’t, I’ll beat you up when I come back!" Luo Ye said and swiftly left. Xia Qianqian stood there mouth agape, swallowing her saliva: "That’s still being polite?"
Tang Luo smirked: "Serves her right. It’s self-inflicted."
...
"No problem, no problem. I’ll handle this for sure. In fact, even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I’d have helped when she’s discharged." Hearing Luo Ye’s request, Zhong Yi readily agreed.
"Thank you so much, Dr. Zhong. Aunt Miao recently has been having one misfortune after another, and Miaomiao is just caught up in military training. Thanks for looking out for her. Once our training is over, and we get some special leave, I’ll definitely treat Dr. Zhong to a meal."
There was a slight unnatural cough from Zhong Yi: "That... no need to be so polite, may I ask you something?"
Luo Ye nodded, "Please go ahead, anything I can help with, I’ll help."
"Instructor Ye Qingzhu, where did she go?"
"Do you need her for something?"
"It’s ... no big deal, just that a few days ago when I went to send Miaomiao the letter her mother left her, I visited the fifth team’s office. Another female officer was sitting at her desk. I wasn’t even done speaking when they chased me out, saying she is the instructor and the school has no instructor named Ye."
"I worried that something happened to Instructor Ye. I wanted to ask the students, but thought twice about it for fear of negatively impacting her."
"Hehe..." Luo Ye wore a mischievous grin: "You daring to ask about Instructor Ye in front of Instructor Hang is asking for a beating! Don’t worry, nothing’s wrong with Instructor Ye, she just got a job transfer, um, you can consider it a promotion."
"Is that so." Zhong Yi breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I’m relieved."
"Shall I take my leave?" Luo Ye gestured as if about to depart.
"Do you have Instructor Ye’s contact information?" Zhong Yi took a bold step: "I like her and want to contact her, please help me out, Miss Luo!"
Luo Ye’s lips curled into a smile: "For now, I don’t have her contact either. She’s in closed training for about two months. When I get in touch with her, I’ll convey Dr. Zhong’s feelings, but whether she accepts them, I can’t control."
Zhong Yi handed Luo Ye a private business card: "Thank you, Miss Luo, this is my mobile number, it’s on 24 hours a day."
Luo Ye waved: "Sure, I’ll pass it to Instructor Ye. Now I really must go!"
"Let’s go together. The body temperature should have been measured. I’ll check the situation." Zhong Yi took his record book and followed, unable to resist reminding again: "Miss Luo, thank you for your effort."
"Don’t worry, I’ll treat it seriously. I find you quite interesting. We just met, and you don’t know me well, yet you trust me with this, hehe..."
Zhong Yi chuckled: "I minored in psychology, and I’m not bad at it."
Luo Ye teased playfully: "Then how come you got chased out by the new instructor?"
Zhong Yi sheepishly touched his nose: "That was an abnormal situation, her personality definitely has flaws though. It would help her a lot if she could see a psychologist."
"If you dare to say that in front of her, you might end up half-disabled!" Luo Ye said raising an alert: "Tomorrow, I’ll be in her hands, must be fully alert!"
Zhong Yi sympathetically looked at Luo Ye: "I’ll get you some special ointment later. It’s made from family recipes refined by my Grandpa, clinically tested, and works very well. Only, it’s too expensive to mass-produce, so it hasn’t been launched."
Luo Ye happily nodded: "Thanks, I won’t be polite about this."
"Dr. Zhong!" Seeing Zhong Yi enter, Miaomiao quickly approached with a bunch of grapes: "Try these, they’re sweet."
Zhong Yi gestured: "Miaomiao, let me check your mom’s condition first, I’ll eat later. What’s her temperature?"
"37.1℃"
"What’s going on; the mood seems off." Luo Ye nudged Xing Nong, whose face was set glumly. It’s not easy to make this girl pull such a long face.
"That woman’s irritating." Xing Nong motioned towards the old lady’s bed, Luo Ye turned to look and noticed a woman in her forties had joined the old lady’s bedside.
"Alright, don’t be angry anymore. Luoluo is right, all sorts of people in the world, you almost got infuriated by her." Tang Luo chuckled explaining, "This girl just came in as the old lady’s daughter-in-law arrived, I hadn’t spoken to her yet when she went over with the grapes and apples for the old lady and her daughter-in-law.
Then I told her about the old lady’s daughter-in-law, and without a word, she snatched the grapes from the daughter-in-law’s hand and threw them in the trash bin."
