298 Chapter 298. She is Sick
Mo Qian’s placing his hand on Zhuang Xian’s forehead seemed natural and appropriate. His eyes were filled with gentleness and affection.
Zhuang Xian was a little shocked by Mo Qian’s action. After a brief pause, she subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Mo Qian. Her big eyes were filled with confusion and questions!
What was this man trying to do? The old man was still sitting opposite them, staring at them like a tiger watching its prey! Zhuang Xian’s mind started to spin. She couldn’t understand what Mo Qian was trying to do!
“Her body temperature is right, and it doesn’t burn to the touch. I don’t think she’s feverish.”
As Mo Qian spoke, he turned back to look at Mo Xi and the doctor beside him, who was still a few steps away and walking over. He ordered very naturally, “Take her temperature first. She probably just caught a cold and has tonsils inflammation.”
Hearing this, the doctor walked past Mo Xi and put down the first aid kit. Then, he began to examine Zhuang Xian.
The bewildered and helpless famous Saint Valley pharmacist, Qing Yi, was taken care of by her patient Mo Qian and grandfather Li Zhen. She had to do whatever they asked her to do!
After five minutes, the military doctor finally let Zhuang Xian off.
“This student doesn’t have a fever, nor is it a cold. It’s just a little inflammation of the tonsils. She’ll be fine after drinking more hot water, taking some anti-inflammatory medicine, and resting more.”
As the military doctor spoke, he prescribed for Zhuang Xian and handed it to Mo Qian beside him. “The temperature difference between morning and night has been quite wide recently. Make sure the patient keeps warm and doesn’t catch a cold again! She doesn’t look perfect. You can find a Chinese medicine doctor to care for her if you have time. Pay more attention to maintaining a good mood!”
Mo Qian nodded politely. After taking note of it, he replied, “Alright! I understand, doctor. Thank you.”
“It’s fine. I’ve already seen a few soldiers who caught a cold today. They’re all just a slight cold caused by the change of season! Remember to take the prescription list to the pharmacy to get the medicine later!” as the doctor spoke, he also reminded him to get the medicine. Then, he picked up the medicine box and left.
Zhuang Xian looked at the doctor Who was leaving and said in a hoarse voice, “I told you I’m fine. You’re the one making a fuss.”
Li Zhen glanced at Zhuang Xian indifferently. Although he did not say it out loud, he complained in his heart, ‘You only dare to insult me! You didn’t even dare to breathe loudly with Mo Qian.’
Mo Qian handed the list of herbs to Mo Xi and motioned him to go to the pharmacy to get the herbs. When he turned around and looked at Zhuang Xian, he advised her softly, “Alright, don’t speak with that voice of yours! Didn’t you hear the doctor? He told you to rest more and talk less!”
“Not only that, but he also asked you to find a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor to prescribe a prescription for your body!” Li Zhen replied directly, “You’re so young. Why do they want you to see a Chinese doctor? It’s because you don’t care about your health at all! The way I see it, it’s time to find someone to discipline you so that you don’t always cherish your body and abuse it just because you’re young!”
As Zhuang Xian listened to the old man’s long-winded words, she frowned helplessly. After clearing her throat, she retorted hoarsely, “I’m a doctor myself; I know what I’m doing, old man. I’m fine.”
However, in the next second, Zhuang Xian was interrupted as she looked at the steaming cup of water that was brought to her.
Mo Qian raised his arm and looked at Zhuang Xian. “Many times, doctors can’t treat themselves! Come, have some hot water to warm your throat.”
Zhuang Xian gulped and subconsciously reached out to take the warm cup. She raised her eyes slightly and looked at Mo Qian for a long time before lowering them again. She felt a little guilty but obediently lowered her head and drank the water.
The sun outside the canteen should be hot, but it was not as comforting and heartwarming as the warm water that slid down her dry and painful throat.
Li Zhen looked at the natural and harmonious atmosphere between them and smiled. His heart was as clear as a mirror. He cleared his throat and slowly stood up. “Aiya, I’ve already finished eating. You two enjoy your meal; I still have something to do with Lei Cheng!”
