Chapter 1196: Chapter 1210: My Treat
On the weekend, just as An Ran was leaving the girls’ dormitory, she saw Zhu Pengfei walking towards her.
"An Ran, I was just about to call you," Zhu Pengfei said, looking her up and down as he approached. "I heard you fainted during the anatomy class?"
An Ran’s face showed a big, embarrassed expression. Could it be that her fainting during the anatomy class had become known throughout the entire school? Should she go out less in the future? A medical student fainting in anatomy class, how embarrassing is that?
She pointed to the big tree nearby, "Zhu Pengfei, if you came over just to confirm this, the shade over there is better, thanks."
"Hey, An Ran, it’s not like I’m here to laugh at you. I’m here to check on you. I heard you have low blood pressure and low blood sugar. Why don’t you see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor to get some herbal medicine to balance it out? I heard from Shen Qi that there’s a really skilled traditional Chinese medicine doctor in their department. Since we have the day off today, I’ll go with you to get some herbal medicine, my treat."
Saying this, Zhu Pengfei patted his wallet.
An Ran crossed her arms over her chest and looked at Zhu Pengfei like he was crazy.
Zhu Pengfei, feeling a bit embarrassed under her piercing gaze, didn’t know which words had caused such a reaction, hesitating about how to prove his sincerity again.
"Zhu Pengfei, whether I need to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor can be set aside for now. I think you need to see a psychiatrist."
This was the first time she heard about someone offering traditional Chinese medicine as a treat.
If you ask An Ran what she’s most afraid of drinking, it’s probably traditional Chinese medicine. She remembered when she was in the Imperial City, Mu Xingfeng forced her to drink those herbal medicines, even using mouth-to-mouth to pour them into her, causing An Ran’s ears to turn red.
Zhu Pengfei didn’t notice An Ran’s peculiarity. Hearing her words, he scratched the back of his head, "I wonder if mental issues can be treated in the traditional Chinese medicine department?"
An Ran gave him a dismissive look, "Alright, if you want to see Shen Qi, just say it directly. Why go around in circles? Let’s go. Anyway, I have nothing to do today, so I’ll accompany you to Shengde Hospital."
"Hey, hey!" Zhu Pengfei chased after An Ran with a smile, "An Ran, seriously, being classmates with you is our greatest fortune. Oh, by the way, I heard Shengde Hospital is yours. So after I graduate, can I work at Shengde Hospital with Shen Qi?"
"Although Shengde Hospital is a charity organization, it’s not a charity for medical staff. To get into Shengde Hospital, you still have to rely on your own skills, so it depends on your performance."
Actually, without Zhu Pengfei saying it, she had already planned that after Shen Qi and Zhu Pengfei graduated, if they were willing, she would directly arrange for them to work at Shengde Hospital. But it’s too early to tell him that now.
"Don’t worry, An Ran, I’m doing quite well in all subjects in our class now. After graduation, I will definitely get into Shengde Hospital with my outstanding grades, and I won’t embarrass you. Oh, I heard Shengwen Welfare Institute and Shengde Hospital are under the same company. I plan to do volunteer work at Shengwen Welfare Institute on weekends..."
The autumn breeze was refreshing and pleasant, and the various flowers by the roadside bloomed even more brilliantly in the autumn days.
The outpatient hall at Shengde Hospital was still bustling with people.
"An Ran, once we’re at the traditional Chinese medicine department, just let that old doctor take a look at you. I told you, I’ll cover the medical expenses," Zhu Pengfei nudged An Ran’s arm, pleading once again.
