Chapter 75: Is it really necessary to be this excited?

Bai Zhi sat by the bedside, giving him moxibustion, her feelings a mix of emotions.

When Lu Ye returned home for the weekend, they had to confront the issue of their engagement.

He had previously mentioned that he would tell Grandpa Lu about announcing the engagement when he got home.

Therefore, they will most likely break off their engagement this week.

In that case, she would have to hurry up and prepare the scar removal medicine for them that afternoon, make money, and leave.

To be honest, I feel a little disappointed.

Bai Zhi was lost in her own thoughts until the moxibustion stick in her hand burned out and burned her hand, at which point she came to her senses.

"hiss......"

"What's wrong?" Lu Ye heard her gasp and turned his head to ask with concern.

"It's nothing, just a little burn."

"Is it serious?" Lu Ye asked.

"It's okay, but... it's time for me to go to work."

She stood up and said to Dr. Li, "Dr. Li, please tidy up. Today, you will be performing moxibustion on the Dazhui acupoint. Through these days of observation and learning, you should have already mastered the distance and techniques for moxibustion."

Dr. Li nodded repeatedly, "Okay, Dr. Bai, you go ahead and do your work, I'll take care of it."

Dr. Li had been eager to try it for a long time, and he was overjoyed when Bai Zhi spoke up.

He finally let his junior apprentice do the work.

Bai Zhi left before Lu Ye got up and rode her bicycle to work.

Lu Ye was still lying on the bed. Seeing that he was not moving, Dr. Li cautiously said, "Company Commander Lu, let's sit up. I'll apply moxibustion to your Dazhui acupoint."

Lu Ye hummed in agreement and sat up.

Dr. Li was holding up the moxibustion stick, about to light it, when Lu Ye said he needed to go to the restroom.

Dr. Li hurriedly took his coat from him, saying, "Company Commander Lu, put on your coat; you can't catch a cold."

When Dr. Li was helping him put on his coat, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of a certain part of Lu Ye's body...

Upon seeing this, his eyes flickered slightly, his gaze full of mockery.

As a man, he naturally understood what that meant.

Dr. Xiaobai only gave Company Commander Lu a moxibustion treatment, how could it make his brother so excited?

This is wonderful!

He had to hurry and tell Mr. Lu the good news.

After Lu Ye came out of the bathroom, he sat on the bed, and Dr. Li lit a moxibustion stick to give him moxibustion.

"Too close."

Dr. Li, “…”

"It's too far away, I can't feel the heat."

Dr. Li, "???"

He clearly remembered that the distance was the same when he used angelica for moxibustion.

He held the moxibustion stick very steadily just now, without any trembling.

There is no situation where the distance fluctuates.

After being rejected twice by Lu Ye, Dr. Li became nervous and her hands began to tremble.

Fearing that Lu Ye might get burned, he promptly called for help, "Old Yang, come here."

Seeing this, Dr. Yang waved his hand dismissively, saying he had to go prepare the herbal medicine, and ran off in a flash.

Dr. Li had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue the moxibustion.

Lu Ye sat on the bed. Although the air was still filled with the smell of herbs, he couldn't smell her unique medicinal fragrance, and he felt inexplicably irritated.

Dr. Li was drenched in cold sweat. He finally made it to the end of the moxibustion treatment. He was covered in sweat, hurriedly packed up his things, told Lu Ye to rest, and quickly left.

...

Bai Zhi arrived at the pharmacy at 10 o'clock.

She lifted the curtain and saw the old man sitting on a stool chatting with Dr. Zhou. She looked slightly surprised and asked, "Grandpa Lu, what brings you here?"

When Old Lu saw that Bai Zhi was only arriving at work at this hour, he smiled and asked, "Dr. Zhou said you were treating another relative. Who is it?"

Old Lu looked inquisitive.

In Nancheng, the only people Bai Zhi knew were her family.

What other relatives does he have? And he treats people every day?

Bai Zhi was speechless for a moment when she met Lu Lao's questioning gaze.

I don't know how to answer this question.

The truth is definitely something that can't be said out loud.

Her eyes flickered slightly as she replied, "It's the little girl I mentioned before who I treated; her epilepsy is quite severe."

"Oh." Old Lu asked with concern, "How is the child doing now? Are you confident you can treat him?"

When Mr. Lu asked this question, his tone was filled with concern.

After all, Bai Zhi was young. Although she had studied medicine, she was not a professional doctor and was not very experienced. He was very worried that Bai Zhi might cause problems in treating patients.

Bai Zhi replied, "Grandpa Lu, don't worry, the child's condition has improved."

Dr. Zhou listened to Bai Zhi's words with a strange expression. He didn't expose Bai Zhi, but simply gestured for her to look at the calendar.

Bai Zhi met his gaze, glanced at the calendar, and realized that today was the day Niu Niu was coming for acupuncture.

She felt a little embarrassed, smiled, and asked Old Lu, "Grandpa Lu, what brings you to the pharmacy?"

Let's finish this business quickly and get the old man home.

!

"Something's happened, something important." Old Master Lu was in a good mood and spoke in a cheerful tone, "Lu Ye is coming back."

"Oh, really?" Bai Zhi feigned surprise and forced a smile. "It's fine."

"Xiaozhi, Lu Ye said that he was too busy with work recently to come back and see you. He expressed his deepest apologies to you on the phone and hopes you can understand. He is also looking forward to seeing you this time."

Bai Zhi's lips twitched slightly upon hearing what Elder Lu said.

If she wasn't mistaken, the old man must have come up with those words himself!

Lu Ye doesn't have that much emotional intelligence.

Even

Besides, he came home this time to propose annuling the engagement.

Thinking of this, Bai Zhi looked at Old Master Lu with a pained expression.

When the old man finds out what Lu Ye really thinks, he will probably be very angry.

Hopefully, this incident won't affect the elderly person's health.

“Grandpa Lu, I’ve always considered you family. My grandfather is gone, but you are my own grandfather, and I am your own granddaughter.”

She hopes the elderly person won't be too surprised or angry at the time.

To be able to accept this peacefully.

She wanted the old man to know that their relationship didn't necessarily have to be maintained by her feelings for Lu Ye.

“Child, you are my granddaughter-in-law, we are family.”

Old Master Lu looked at her and subtly offered a heads-up, "Lu Ye is a rather introverted young man and doesn't know how to win a girl's heart. Be tolerant and give him some time to get to know her."

“Grandpa Lu, let’s leave it to fate. You can’t force these things. Even if Lu Ye and I aren’t meant to be, you’ll still be my grandpa.”

Bai Zhi's words startled the old man. He looked at Bai Zhi probingly and asked tentatively, "Xiao Zhi, have you fallen for that Xie Zheng?"

Bai Zhi, "???"

She shook her head. "Grandpa Lu, I'm not familiar with Xie Zheng."

Grandpa Lu did not lower his guard because of her words.

"Although Xie Zheng is handsome, he is not suitable for you. You should listen to Grandpa Lu and give Lu Ye a chance. Wait for him to come back, and then get to know him well and cultivate your relationship, okay?"

Fearing that Bai Zhi might have other ideas, Old Master Lu tried his best to promote his grandson, "Although Lu Ye has a somewhat cold personality, he is mature and steady, a responsible man who will definitely be able to support you and protect you under his wings in the future."

“Grandpa Lu, matters of the heart are two-way,” Bai Zhi said. “If the other person is not interested, I certainly can’t rush into it, so please don’t worry about it.”

In treating Lu Ye, she has broken the rule of not knocking on doors before a doctor's appointment.

She knew Lu Ye's fate in his previous life and was well aware of how terrible the poison in his body was. She couldn't bear to see the hero who protected his country suffer such excruciating pain. Therefore, despite the distrust and even obstruction from Lu Zheng'an, Lu Shan, and others, she overcame pressure from all sides and treated him.

She has fulfilled the responsibilities of a doctor.

As for relationships, let nature take its course.

Old Master Lu's tone was firm, but also carried a hint of pleading: "Xiao Zhi, don't worry, Lu Ye will definitely like you. You must give him a chance to get to know you."
