Chapter 164 Calling the Doctor to the Home
When Song Qiao murmured something to herself, she opened her eyes and found them empty. She smiled and reminded herself: What am I thinking about?
Song Qiao turned on the gas stove, put water in the steamer and started boiling, then went to beat the eggs.
I cracked four eggs, stirred them with chopsticks, added a few shrimp, and started steaming them once the pot boiled.
Taking this opportunity, Song Qiao called Tao Meiling and Song Jianguo to tell them that she couldn't go back tonight.
Are you with Mingxuan?
Tao Meiling's voice came from the other side.
Song Qiao glanced at Lu Mingxuan on the living room sofa: "Yes! Mom, don't worry, I'm safe."
After Song Qiao called Song Jianguo, she gave him the same advice: "Daughter, you and Mingxuan should both be careful."
Song Qiao replied over the phone, "Okay! Dad, I got it."
For Song Qiao, she was safe, but Lu Mingxuan was injured because of her.
Thinking of that ten-centimeter-long wound, she felt very distressed. She even wondered: would it heal too slowly if it wasn't stitched up?
"Mingxuan, after we finish eating, I'll take you to the hospital. The wound is too big and needs stitches."
Song Qiao thought: What if the wound tears open again, making it even harder to heal?
Lu Mingxuan looked up at Song Qiao: "No need to go to the hospital, I'll just call Zhou Feng and have him come over."
Upon hearing this, Song Qiao looked at him and asked, "Are you afraid that your uncle and aunt will worry about you if they find out you're injured?"
"Yes!"
Lu Mingxuan lied. He wasn't afraid they would worry; he was afraid they would cause trouble for Song Qiao if they knew he was injured. "Parents always worry about their children. My parents just called and told me to be careful."
In Lu Mingxuan's mind, the hearts of parents are different all over the world, but his parents don't need this phrase.
"I'll go check if the steamed egg custard is cooked!"
Knowing that a doctor would be coming soon, Song Qiao wanted to get Lu Mingxuan to eat as soon as possible so that he could have the stitches done after eating, which would reduce the pain.
Watching Song Qiao leave the living room and enter the kitchen, Lu Mingxuan picked up his phone and dialed a number.
"Hey!"
The other party answered immediately.
How's it going at the hospital?
Over the phone, Lu Mingxuan asked Zhou Feng, the head of surgery.
"While you were away, the hospital director personally performed several surgeries. When are you coming back?"
It seemed Zhou Feng was unaware of his intention to resign, so he quickly said, "I can't go back for now. I'm injured and at home. I'll need you to come and give me stitches."
When Zhou Feng heard that Lu Mingxuan was injured and getting stitches at home, he was a little confused: "Why didn't you come to the hospital? The conditions here are much better."
"I don't want my dad to know I'm hurt."
After hearing Lu Mingxuan's words, Zhou Feng seemed to understand.
"Okay, I'll go over immediately."
"I'm in the Moon Palace, sending you my location."
The two were classmates, colleagues, best partners, and close friends.
"Okay! Send me your location, and I'll bring my medicine and supplies and head over right away."
Lu Mingxuan thought for a moment and then reminded Zhou Feng, "Don't let anyone know that I'm injured."
"Don't worry, I'm on duty tonight. I'll make the arrangements and head over with the first-aid kit."
The two had studied at the same medical school, and after graduating, he directly recruited Zhou Feng to Jiangcheng Hospital.
During the years Lu Mingxuan was abroad, Zhou Feng had already become a key member of Jiangcheng Hospital and soon became the director of surgery.
After he returned, the two worked together even better, solving any surgical problems together.
Recently, he had a falling out with Lu Xinjun, and Lu Mingxuan told him some things. Zhou Ming advised him not to argue with Lu Xinjun, since Jiangcheng Hospital would still be his in the future anyway.
Lu Mingxuan couldn't stand it; every time he spoke with Lu Xinjun, he felt like their values clashed.
Song Qiao brought the steamed egg custard to the living room, sat down on the sofa, and blew on the bowl: "It's ready, eat it now, it's not hot anymore!"
Lu Mingxuan looked down at Song Qiao's series of actions, which reminded him of how his grandmother used to do the same when he was a child. She would bring him freshly cooked food and tell him to eat it while it was hot.
A look of happiness appeared in Lu Mingxuan's eyes.
"What are you looking at? Hurry up and eat. Didn't you say a doctor would be coming soon?"
Song Qiao's words reminded Lu Mingxuan, and he looked at her and said, "I can't lift my hand, you feed me!"
Song Qiao looked at him and said, "Okay! Lie on your side so you don't put pressure on the wound. I'll feed you!"
Lu Mingxuan wanted Song Qiao to feel the warmth of family, so it seems that this injury was worthwhile.
Come on! Open your mouth.
Song Qiao looked at Lu Mingxuan lying on the sofa and remembered the time she was injured and lying alone on the sofa. She wanted Jiang Ming to pour her a glass of water, but he just brought the thermos next to her and said, "Pour it yourself! It's just a little injury, what's with the fuss!"
She burned herself while cooking rice that time. It hurt terribly, and her arm was covered in blisters. Every time she lifted her arm to pick something up, it was a painful ordeal.
She wondered: Was Lu Mingxuan in so much pain too?
Lu Mingxuan only had to open his mouth, and Song Qiao fed him the whole bowl of steamed egg custard.
"Is it tasty?"
Song Qiao looked at Lu Mingxuan's pale face due to blood loss and asked.
"It's delicious. I've never had shrimp in steamed egg custard before. This is my first time eating it."
“When Jiang Xiaoran was little, I often cooked for her. Every time she finished eating, she would say she wanted to eat more. But I was afraid she would overeat, so I always controlled the amount of food she ate. But later I found out that Zhao Xiaoya said I was being harsh on her.”
After explaining all this, Song Qiao smiled and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about these things anymore. It's better to forget some people and some things."
In this life, as long as Jiang Xiaoran stops harming those around her, she can spare her life. As for Jiang Ming, well, that's another story.
When Zhou Feng arrived at the Moon Palace using the location on his phone, he called Lu Mingxuan.
"Hey! I'm here, right at the gate."
Lu Mingxuan looked at Song Qiao and said, "Wait a moment, I'll have your sister-in-law open the door for you."
"Sister-in-law? When did you get married?" Zhou Feng asked curiously over the phone.
"We haven't been married for very long, so I didn't tell you. Okay! Come on in and we'll talk."
Song Qiao stared wide-eyed as Lu Mingxuan finished his call, then raised her pink fist.
He smiled and said, "Go open the door. Zhou Feng is waiting outside."
There was no time to argue with him. Song Qiao walked out of the living room. A motion-activated light in the yard turned on. She went to the door and opened it from the inside.
"Dr. Zhou? Thank you for coming so late."
Under the lamplight, Zhou Feng looked at Song Qiao with surprise in his eyes: "When did you two get married?"
Song Qiao smiled and said, "Mingxuan is just joking with you. We're not married yet; we're just getting ready."
Hearing this, Zhou Feng smiled and said, "I knew he was lying to me. If he were getting married, he wouldn't have kept it from his good friend, right?"
"Come in!" Song Qiao smiled and welcomed Zhou Feng in.
Zhou Feng followed Song Qiao into the living room and saw Lu Mingxuan lying on the sofa. He asked, "Where are you hurt? Just don't let it affect your ability to continue the family line!"
