Chapter 120: A Chance Encounter with Second Big Brother in the Hospital
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Hearing this overly young voice, Nan Qiao was a little surprised.
Then, she saw a person sitting in an office chair, waving the film in his hand behind the screen.
His slender eyebrows and a pair of cold phoenix eyes made him look indescribably wanton and cold. His slightly long black hair made his skin look even paler. Coupled with the doctor’s standard white coat, he gave off a sense of abstinence.
Nan Qiao met his gaze. Under the light, she could see the clear light in his eyes. She didn’t expect such a handsome doctor to exist.
Wait, isn’t this—
Looking at the familiar face of the person in front of him, Nan Qiao blinked and put the doctor together with another person in her memory.
Wasn’t this her Second Brother, Murong Zheng, who had treated her previous injuries?
Nan Qiao remembered what Xian Yu said about a “veterinary doctor” and looked at where he was.
The central hospital, orthopedic department, and even a private office.
How was this a vet clinic?
“It’s a minor fracture. It’ll recover if she stays home to recuperate.”
The next second, the other party’s words brought Nan Qiao back to reality.
After noticing his obsession with cleanliness last time, she seemed to have discovered Murong Zheng’s second trait, his sharp tongue.
Why did such a handsome man have such a sharp tongue?
Fortunately, although his words were unpleasant, it was good as long as An Nuo was fine.
Nan Qiao glanced at the time. An Nuo’s family should be here soon.
It was just that Nan Qiao recognized Murong Zheng, but Murong Zheng didn’t remember his Little Sister.
He focused all his attention on the film in his hand and looked at An Nuo, who was wearing expensive clothes. He thought that this person was really rich since she could even consult with him.
Murong Zheng was a famous genius in the medical field. He specialized in orthopedics. He had been studying outside for a while and had only come back to rest these two days.
It was widely known that his medical fees could be really daunting.
However, given his cold att.i.tude and serious mysophobia, no one would disturb him usually.
“The skin has suffered some abrasion and there’s a risk of infection and inflammation. Also, she needs a cast.”
Murong Zheng glanced at An Nuo’s injury. It was not a big deal.
“If you want to eat some pork trotters or something, you can.”
He then added.
An Nuo was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously.
“Can that be considered as a form of supplement?”
What she said was not unreasonable. In the theory of Chinese medicine, eating a particular part of the animal can help to supplement the same part of the human body.
But when it came to Murong Zheng…
It was rare for him to be distracted. He moved his gaze away from the computer screen and looked up at An Nuo. However, his cold gaze was a little strange, making people confused.
“It can help nourish the brain.”
Murong Zheng dissed.
His words made people a little unhappy.
Nan Qiao thought to herself. She exchanged glances with An Nuo, who did not want to talk after being dissed. They both understood the similar feeling in each other’s hearts.
However, when Murong Zheng asked her to eat pig trotters, he was actually asking her to replenish her nutrients. After all, An Nuo was at the age where she was lively. She could use the momentum to cat more good food so that her injuries would heal faster.
Hence, when the question was asked, Murong Zheng’s answer was sincere.
After all, in his opinion, since she could ask such a question, she should indeed nourish her brain.
Nan Qiao stood on the side. When she saw the strange look in Murong Zheng’s eyes, she instantly felt that he was looking at An Nuo as if he was looking at something stupid.
Nan Qiao pushed An Nuo and went out to get a cast. She happened to b.u.mp into An Nuo’s family, so after handing her over to them, she took out her phone and called Murong Chen.
Now that An Nuo had been picked up by her family, she was no longer in the mood to play outside. She planned to call and tell Murong Chen about the day’s events.
Of course, she also told him about meeting Murong Zheng.
“He’s smart. He came back so quietly that even I didn’t know.”
Murong Chen snorted coldly when he found out that Murong Zheng was in the Central Hospital. However, he was not surprised.
Unlike him, who was always busy in the company, Murong Zheng always had various projects to study. In the past year, almost half of his time was spent outside doing research. It was rare for him to come back, so he did most things alone and rarely partic.i.p.ated in gatherings.
He was simply like a robot, without the slightest self-awareness of humans living in groups.
This was the a.s.sessment of him by his brothers.
“Bring him back with you so we can all have a meal together.”
Murong Chen simply told Nan Qiao.
It was not easy for someone who usually could not be seen to appear. If he did not capture him now, he did not know when he would see him again.
Unexpectedly, Nan Qiao had coincidentally b.u.mped into him today. There was no time like the present, so he asked her to bring him back.
Otherwise, with Murong Zheng’s personality, Murong Chen reckoned that even if he called 800 times, he might not be able to make a trip home.
“Alright, I understand.”
Nan Qiao agreed.
She had just pushed An Nuo out. Although she had only taken the route from the Orthopedics Department once, Nan Qiao’s could still depend on her good memory skills.
Moreover, Murong Zheng had left a deep impression on her.
Nan Qiao pressed the elevator b.u.t.ton and watched the numbers change bit by bit, but she was thinking about Murong Zheng.
The last time she saw the other party, it was the time when she was kidnapped by He Qian. At that time, Nan Qiao was a little weak. Coupled with Fifth Brother’s behavior, she remembered that someone had fed her water.
Oh, and the handkerchief that was thrown away in disdain.
Hazy memories began to surge in Nan Qiao’s mind. Although Murong Zheng’s actions at that time were not gentle, it still made Nan Qiao feel much better.
However, the other party did not seem to be interested in her.
Ding.
The elevator doors opened.
Nan Qiao retracted her wandering thoughts and walked towards the office she had just gone to.
She raised her hand and knocked on the door.
Murong Zheng was surprised when he heard the knock on the door.
Today was a rare day for two people to come to him for treatment.
Did they have nowhere to spend their money?
“Come in.”
After getting permission, Nan Qiao pushed the door open and walked to Murong Zheng’s table.
“It’s you?”
Murong Zheng looked at the person in front of him who had just left not long ago and did not understand why she had returned.
Seeing that this guy still didn’t recognize her, Nan Qiao had the urge to sigh.
Why was his memory so bad at such a young age? She was really afraid that Murong Zheng would pick the wrong specimen during his research and cause the lab to explode.
“I’m Nan Qiao.”
She introduced herself and saw that the man in front of her had no reaction. Even his eyes, which were staring at her, remained calm when he heard her name.
“I’m your sister.”
With this sentence, Murong Zheng finally had a little reaction on his face.
He seemed to have been triggered by this keyword. He blinked and sized up Nan Qiao again.
Murong Zheng dug out the unimportant memories from the corner of his brain and carefully examined them before recognizing Nan Qiao.
He remembered now.
He was doing an experiment when Murong Chen suddenly called him over. In the end, it was to treat someone. Or rather, it was to treat his sister.
Because of his interrupted experiment, Murong Zheng had a slight impression of Nan Qiao.
“Can I help you?”
He could tell that the other party was not here to consult him, so he threw out a sentence and looked at the computer again.
Nan Qiao glanced at it. The dense symbols and formulas on it were dazzling..
