Chapter 188: Uncontrollable Emotions

Bai Zhi and Ye Qingbai were talking when Lu Ye came out.

Seeing that both of them looked very serious, he guessed that it must be about Ye Tiandong.

"Brother Ye, Cousin, I'll be going now."

Ye Qingbai drove there. He got into a Santana, and the car quickly disappeared into the dimly lit street corner.

Lu Ye and Bai Zhi also went home and closed the door.

It was already late, and to avoid suspicion, Bai Zhi tried her best not to be alone with Lu Ye, otherwise her grandfather would definitely be furious if he saw her.

Lu Ye wanted to pull her to his room to talk, but Bai Zhi broke free from his hand, saying, "Behave yourself, my grandfather saw us."

Lu Yejun's face was full of helplessness. The girl didn't give him a chance to be alone with her at all. She left as soon as the moxibustion ended. He didn't even have a chance to spend some time with her and deepen their relationship.

She broke free from him and tried to go inside, but he swiftly leaned in and kissed her cheek.

Then he quickly turned around and strode into his room.

Bai Zhi, "..."

As soon as Zhou Lin lifted the curtain and came out, she happened to see this strange scene.

Zhou Lin covered her face in embarrassment and turned to go inside.

Bai Zhi stood in the courtyard, looking at the door closed by the culprit, and then at the door closed by Zhou Lin, speechless.

She walked to the door, pushed it open, and went inside.

Just like the day she saw her hug Lu Ye last time, Zhou Lin awkwardly turned her back to her and didn't talk to her.

"Linlin, have you tried on the bra? How does it fit? Let me see."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Lin was so frightened that she crossed her arms to protect herself, saying, "No need to look, it's wearable."

Seeing the little girl's shy expression, Bai Zhi's eyes flickered with interest. She deliberately leaned over and pulled her, saying, "No, I want to see."

Zhou Lin was so frightened that she hugged her chest and shrank back. "Sister, please don't do this. I'll feel embarrassed."

"What's there to be embarrassed about? You have one, and so do I. Let me see."

Zhou Lin squatted down, determined not to give Bai Zhi a chance to take advantage, "No, you can't look..."

"You've studied away from home, why are you being so coy? Get up, I'm not teasing you anymore."

Bai Zhi sat down on the edge of the bed, and stood up with Zhou Lin. She explained to her very seriously.

"Lu Ye and I are in a relationship, and sometimes physical contact is inevitable. If you see anything that's offensive, please don't be offended."

Zhou Lin smiled awkwardly and waved her hand, "I don't mind." Yeah, right.

"Sister, why is your dating process different from others?" She looked at Bai Zhi's innocent face with bright, questioning eyes.

When couples are dating, they usually walk one in front of the other.

He doesn't talk much in front of others.

How could they possibly be hugging and kissing in the yard?

Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow, "Isn't it the same?"

"Yes, they're different."

Bai Zhi looked at the little girl's hesitant expression and instantly understood what she meant.

She thought to herself, "This is nothing."

Because she was reborn into this conservative era, she was more reserved and, with elders around, she avoided any appearance of impropriety.

If it were in later generations...

She said with a smile, "Maybe it's because I like it that I can't help myself."

As Bai Zhi spoke, a sweet smile appeared on her face.

She could sense that Lu Ye, that blockhead, had truly fallen for her.

A proud, tough man like him, a resolute and serious soldier, would never do something like stealing a kiss from someone in their yard unless he genuinely liked them.

The only explanation is that he couldn't help himself.

He likes her.

Her feelings for him have now undergone a subtle change.

From a shallow liking in a past life to a deeper affection now that comes from a deeper understanding.

Zhou Lin was eighteen years old, an age when she was just beginning to experience romantic feelings, but she didn't have anyone she liked and was only interested in medicine. Therefore, she didn't quite understand what Bai Zhi was saying.

He stared at her with a blank expression.

"You're still young, you'll understand later."

Bai Zhi lay in bed, her mind overflowing with thoughts.

She was deeply concerned about Ye Tiandong's situation.

And because of Lu Ye's kiss just now, her heart was fluttering.

Once Lu Ye's treatment is over, it's time for their relationship to take another step forward.

After daybreak, Bai Zhi still needed to accompany Ye Rufeng to De Ren Tang for consultations.

While eating breakfast, Bai Zhi said to Ye Rufeng, "Grandpa, I think the peak period for patients in Bincheng has passed, and there aren't as long lines as before."

Derentang has an unwritten rule that it does not treat common colds or flu.

We only handle complex and difficult cases.

"Yeah, I'm free now."

"Grandpa, when are we going to Nancheng to see patients? Dr. Zhou has been advertising for days. If you don't go soon, everyone will think Dr. Zhou is faking it."

Dr. Zhou was not recognized or respected by everyone because of his lack of medical skills.

With Jishengtang so blatantly advertising that Dr. Ye would be holding consultations, everyone is certainly looking forward to his arrival.

If he doesn't show up soon, Dr. Zhou's reputation will definitely suffer even more.

"Next Monday," Ye Rufeng said. "Our first batch of patients should be coming for follow-up appointments in the next couple of days. Once all the follow-up appointments are finished, we'll go to Nancheng."

Ye Rufeng is very responsible towards every patient.

Once someone has come to see him for the first time, he must wait for a follow-up appointment.

Unless the patient does not appear for personal reasons.

Bai Zhi agreed, "Okay, then I'll call Dr. Zhou back today, otherwise they'll get impatient."

Zhou Lin also started to miss home. When Bai Zhi called Dr. Zhou at noon, she specifically asked Zhou Lin to come along.

After letting her speak a few words with her father, Bai Zhi got down to business with Doctor Zhou, "Doctor Zhou, how's Jishengtang doing lately? Are you busy?"

The signal on Dr. Zhou's end was bad, so he shouted at the top of his lungs, "I'm very busy, dealing with patients who come to ask for information every day."

“Lu Ye’s second aunt has come three times already.” Doctor Zhou had already taken pity on her. “I see that her condition is getting worse and worse. Her face is swollen like a big basin, and her fingers are about to deform. You should put in a good word for Doctor Ye and ask him to take a look at her when he comes this time.”

Upon hearing Doctor Zhou's words, Bai Zhi showed no particular emotion, simply responding with a faint "oh."

She said, "We'll see how it goes when I'm on duty for the clinic."

"Okay, I'll tell all the patients to come and line up on Monday." Dr. Zhou then asked about his daughter's situation, "Xiaobai, how's Linlin's studies going? What did Dr. Ye say about her? Does she have a talent for medicine? Is she studying diligently?"

Bai Zhi looked at the girl beside her, her face softening. "Dr. Zhou, don't worry, Linlin is working very hard. She gets medicine at the clinic during the day, and after get off work, my grandfather gives her private lessons. She's a key student being groomed, and she's sure to achieve great things in traditional Chinese medicine in the future."

With Zhou Lin's earnestness, she's definitely capable of succeeding.

She loves traditional Chinese medicine.
