Chapter 469
Chapter 469: Chapter 469
You Ran Cheng was quietly checking out the handsome guy with a cold expression not too far away, whispering to Su Lu, "Hey, did you call me over to look at handsome guys?"
It’s said that You Ran Cheng’s standards are quite high, just like Su Lu’s, so anyone they think is handsome must really be top-notch.
Upon hearing this, Su Lu laughed, "Yeah, what do you think?"
"Handsome!" You Ran Cheng laughed and gave a thumbs up, "Wow, having such an opportunity for a house call is really nice, getting paid and getting to see handsome guys."
Su Lu pointed at Jing Qiao and said, "Yeah, that’s her husband."
"Huh?!" You Ran Cheng was shocked, her face instantly flushed red, and she glared at Su Lu irritably, "Why didn’t you tell me sooner!"
Drooling over a man in front of his wife! That seemed quite inappropriate no matter how you looked at it.
You Ran Cheng quickly said to Jing Qiao, "I’m sorry, sister, I didn’t know. I was purely admiring."
"It’s okay." Jing Qiao smiled gently, "Look all you want, we’re getting divorced soon anyway."
You Ran Cheng was surprised and widened her eyes, thinking, Should I be hearing this?
Su Lu laughed from the side, "No worries, Xiao Qiao, later on you can also check out You Ran’s boyfriend."
"Is he handsome?" asked Jing Qiao.
"Handsome," Su Lu said.
You Ran Cheng’s face, already flushed, turned even redder. She muttered, "What are you talking about... what boyfriend..."
You Ran Cheng wasn’t like Su Lu, who had been dating Bo Jingshen since college. You Ran Cheng went straight from her bachelor’s to her doctorate, busy as a dog, each medical student’s bitterness alike.
So, in fact, she was quite inexperienced. After entering the workforce, she devoted herself to her medical career and was actually quite naive—she really didn’t have much experience in relationships.
Unlike Su Lu, who had been entangled with Bo Jingshen for a solid ten years, and in between, mixed up with a planned marriage with Gu Xin and complications with Qiao Li... how to put it... a real old hand at this.
Quite thick-skinned.
Teasing an old friend, she showed no mercy.
Su Lu joked, "A love interest, huh? Could it possibly mean... he’s already marriage material?"
You Ran was teased to irritation, "Su Xiaolu! Are you serious?" noveldrama
Su Lu started laughing and told her, "Alright, alright, just focus on treating Xiao Qiao, or else that older brother behind might just kill you."
That older brother behind...
You Ran Cheng took another look at the handsome man with phoenix eyes and long legs.
She indeed felt that older brother’s gaze was a bit... a bit fierce.
Her fingers quickly returned to Jing Qiao’s wrist pulse.
There was a reason why Su Lu called You Ran Cheng for a house call—You Ran Cheng was quite capable professionally, and had trained under a very famous traditional Chinese doctor, showing quite some talent.
Even though her own background was in western medicine, specifically surgical clinical, using traditional Chinese medicine to help post-surgical patients recuperate had good results.
Su Lu felt that for Jing Qiao’s condition, traditional Chinese medicine might be more suitable than western medicine, so she called You Ran Cheng.
"How is it?" Su Lu asked after she finished taking Jing Qiao’s pulse.
You Ran Cheng had Jing Qiao switch hands and continued to check the pulse, then looked at her tongue.
"She’s extremely weak." Cheng Youran said, "I’ll prescribe her some medicine to take first, then prepare a formula for a bath. Luckily, this is a hot spring hotel with big enough pools. Given her current condition, she’s too weak for acupuncture. Let’s just focus on recuperation."
Upon hearing her begin to discuss the diagnosis and treatment plan, Song Boyuan no longer stood from afar, but walked over to listen attentively.
Cheng Youran’s words seemed quite reasonable, which reassured Song Boyuan somewhat.
Originally, he had doubts about Cheng Youran since she looked so young.
"She already has bone injuries, so a bath will definitely be beneficial." Cheng Youran thought for a moment and then asked, "You mentioned earlier that she was planning to undergo internal fixation surgery?"
Su Lu nodded, "Yeah, that was the plan."
"Let’s put that plan on hold for now." Cheng Youran said, "With her current physical condition so weak, how can she withstand anesthesia and surgery? We should at least wait until she’s recuperated before considering surgery."
Su Lu gently stroked Jing Qiao’s hair, "Did you hear that? It looks like you have some bitter medicine coming your way."
Jing Qiao stuck out her tongue, "Doctor sister, can you prescribe something a bit less bitter?"
Cheng Youran smiled, "Don’t worry, the nourishing formula isn’t too difficult to take. I’ll write up the prescription and have the hospital pharmacy prepare it, dividing it into individual packets to make it easier for you to take; just heat it up in water or microwave it when you’re ready to drink it."
"Thank you, Doctor sister." Jing Qiao smiled and expressed her gratitude, then said, "Do you like to eat snacks? Would you like some snacks before you leave?"
Cheng Youran glanced at her watch, initially wanting to decline, but before she could speak, Su Lu interjected, "Just a friendly reminder, Xiao Qiao’s cooking is superb, once you miss this, there’s no other chance; think carefully before you speak."
Cheng Youran helplessly said, "With that kind of endorsement, I can hardly say no now."
Jing Qiao got up, "I’ll go get them now."
She briskly ran to the kitchen to bring out freshly made snacks, cookies, and cakes.
Cheng Youran checked her watch again while speedily gobbling down the food.
"You can take it easy, no one’s racing you for them." Su Lu was rather helpless; You Ran’s eating habits had been shaped by years of busy study and the demanding nature of medical practice, often barely catching a seat in the library, treating patients, or rushing to surgeries.
So, she rushed through eating and Cheng Youran, with a blush and shyly said, "This is really delicious, Xiao Qiao your cooking skills are outstanding."
"If you like it, eat up more," Jing Qiao grinned, "No need to rush."
"If I don’t rush, I won’t make it, I have a surgery to attend to later." Cheng Youran said.
As expected, Jing Qiao immediately offered, "Do you want to take some with you? I can pack some for you."
Cheng Youran grinned, "Really? Can I?"
Su Lu’s gaze turned meaningful as she quietly asked, "All this eating and taking away, is it all for you, or for your... significant other?"
"Ahem... cough cough cough!" Cheng Youran choked and glared at Su Lu, "...you really want to choke me to death."
Su Lu patted her back to ease her breathing, "Don’t feel guilty, if you weren’t guilty, you wouldn’t have choked like that."
Jing Qiao went to the kitchen to pack for her.
It was at this moment, Song Boyuan finally approached.
Cheng Youran looked at him, still finding the handsome man a bit intimidating.
Song Boyuan’s voice was even-toned and didn’t sound menacing at all.
He asked very seriously and formally, "Doctor Cheng, I wonder if you would be interested in switching jobs?"
"Huh?" This caught Cheng Youran off guard, and she looked at Su Lu in confusion.
Su Lu knew Song Boyuan was concerned but chaotic, and couldn’t help but sigh softly.
What do you think?
