Chapter 41: Solving The Dilemma
“Mr. Lu, thank you. You helped me with my dilemma again today.”
He Youran and Lu Qingzhuo walked side by side in the corridor of the hospital and went to room 503 to visit Old Madam Lu.
“It’s not really solving the problem. Everyone has witnessed doctor He’s medical skills. I believe that even if you’re not in Rong city, you’ll be able to find a place to survive well very quickly.” Lu Qingzhuo smiled faintly. “As for that Miss Chen, do you have any conflicts with her?”
“No, I don’t.” He Youran shrugged helplessly. “Ever since I took up the post, she has been displeased with me in every way. I think gold always shines. Perhaps my gold is too bright.”
She pouted and her slightly rounded cheeks puffed up. Coupled with her deliberately funny expression, she looked both funny and cute.
This was the first time Lu Qingzhuo saw her like this. He thought it was interesting and looked at her a few more times.
“It makes sense to me. Doctor He is a good doctor, and it’s inevitable that people will be jealous of you. I wonder if I have the honor to treat doctor He to a meal?” Lu Qingzhuo said with a smile.
“Mr. Lu has helped me so much, so this meal is on me.” He Youran wasn’t shy at all.
What’s more, she had a guilty conscience. She felt bad that she had used Lu Qingzhuo as a shield without his knowledge, so she could use this meal as compensation.
“Okay, I’ll let grandma know and then we’ll go.”
“Bring Old Madam Lu. You’ve been in imperial capital for so many years. Rong city has changed a lot, and there are many good snacks here,” He Youran said. She liked that kind-looking old lady.
“Oh? I heard that doctor He just returned to Rong city. Do you still remember where there is good food?” Lu Qingzhuo raised an eyebrow.
“Don’t underestimate the information network of foodies.” He Youran smiled smugly.
Her He Shouxin was a little foodie. When she saw the way he ate, even she became more interested in his appetite. In the past few years, apart from studying medical skills and doing other things, she had been collecting delicious food from all over the world to add to her bucket list. Every once in a while, she would bring He Shouxin out for a big meal in a low-key manner.
Although Rong city was a small place, it was still an ancient city after all. It had gathered over a hundred years of culture, and there were prodigies that could not be seen anywhere else. It was not an exaggeration to say that there were crouching tigers and hidden dragons here.
This was especially so for the mysterious master. His ancestors were also in Rong City, and he had hundreds of outer court students. Even if the outer court students had only learned the basics, they had already stirred up the food craze in Rong City.
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked to 503. When they entered, the doctor who was in charge of taking care of old madam Lu had just finished explaining the results of the examination to her.
When he saw Lu Qingzhuo and He Youran, the doctor tactfully walked out.
Previously, she had followed the trend and accused He Youran of stealing Chen Man’s card. Now that she knew that Lu Qingzhuo was supporting He Youran, whenever she saw her again, she would avoid her like a mouse seeing a cat. She was afraid that He Youran would one day remember and say bad things about her to Lu Qingzhuo.
In just a few days, there had already been dozens of versions of He Youran’s relationship with Lu Qingzhuo. Although there were different versions, the common point was that the relationship between the two of them was not simple.
Otherwise, why would the young master of the Lu family of imperial capital stand up for a young doctor? Even if that doctor was Along’s student.
“Ran Ran, Qingzhuo, you’re here.”
Seeing He Youran and Lu Qingzhuo together, old madam Lu was overjoyed.
But then, she looked at He Youran up and down worriedly.
“Oh right, Ran Ran, is everything okay? I heard Qinglan say that someone was making things difficult for you, so she was worried.”
