Jiang Ye didn’t want to agree but had to, because the phone at the station had already rung with urgency.
"Captain Jiang, XX automobile factory is on fire with a large blaze, and several staff members are trapped on the scene and need emergency rescue."
Immediately, Jiang Ye frowned.
He didn’t even have time to say much, just hurriedly left behind a phrase,
"Take care of yourself!"
Lu Jing was dumbfounded for a moment, then came to her senses and shouted towards the retreating figure,
"Jiang Ye, be careful!"
The man had already run a distance but still heard the woman’s concern and waved his hand behind his back as a response.
Lu Jing watched him disappear before she finally entered the hospital.
Clearly, the afternoon was going to be filled with anxiety again.
Every time he was gone, her heart tightened in worry.
She had sighed over this countless times.
Fortunately, there weren’t many patients in the outpatient clinic that afternoon; they came intermittently, unlike the morning rush where there was hardly even a break to take a sip of water.
Around three o’clock, Lu Jing’s phone rang.
It was her mom calling, and she promptly answered:
Thankfully, Jiang Ye had already mentioned that the family was coming over, otherwise she’d have been confused.
"Mhm, just touched down."
Hearing her mom say they had landed:
"Do you need me to pick you and dad up?"
Her mom on the phone, without any hesitation, refused after hearing her daughter’s offer.
"Don’t be ridiculous. We’re old enough and don’t need to be picked up.
Just take good care of yourself. Your dad, your Uncle Jiang, and Aunt Su are with me."
It wasn’t like she was alone and needed her daughter to worry. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novel·fıre·net
"And my brother and sister-in-law?"
Weren’t they supposed to come together?
"Your brother and your sister-in-law went to the branch office, there’s work to be handled. They’ll meet up with us in the evening.
Jiang Huai, that lad, bumped into acquaintances right after getting off the plane and now I don’t even know where he’s gone."
Encountering acquaintances right after getting off the plane, he sure knows a lot of people!
Lu Jing, not one for gossip, told her mom she was still at work then hung up, as a patient had arrived.
"Doctor, my back hurts."
"How does it hurt? Where exactly does it hurt?"
"Here, right here, it’s a stabbing kind of pain, and it’s also very sore and swollen, just really uncomfortable."
Lu Jing took a quick look:
"Come sit closer, let me take a look."
"Eh eh, okay, doctor."
Doctor’s eyes weren’t X-rays that could see the problem at a glance, it still required physical touch to assess.
"Yes, right there, it’s been hurting since yesterday."
Lu Jing pressed around the area, somewhat suspicious, but still, she couldn’t jump to conclusions:
"At the moment, I suspect it might be a lumbar herniation, we need to take an X-ray."
"That’s right, what kind of work do you usually do?"
"Data entry, I just sit all day entering information into the computer."
"When you work, you can’t sit for too long. You have to get up and move around, understand?"
The patient, in too much pain, naturally took the doctor’s words as law and nodded obediently:
"Alright, doctor, I will definitely follow your advice from now on."
Seeing the young man in front of her grimacing in pain, Lu Jing couldn’t help but feel a twinge of sympathy:
"I’ve already written up the order, go pay first, then wait outside the CT room for your name to be called."
"Thank you, beautiful doctor."
