Chapter 22
You’d Better Watch it
Mu Anan’s expression was unsightly.
She did not have a good temper or the patience to endure any grievances.
She was even more angry after hearing Chen Hua’s plea.
But not because of Chen Jiali. It was because Chen Hua was weak and because of her parents’ detestable behavior.
“Don’t you think that your parents always sacrifice you?” Mu Anan asked plainly.
“I know!” Chen Hua was very upset. “But they are my parents. What can I do? Even if they don’t love me, they still raised me… If blame has to be a.s.signed, blame it on my incompetence.”
Chen Hua said as she turned her head away, desperately holding back her tears.
Mu Anan had been spoiled by her mother and grandfather since young.
Even after her family disintegrated, she grew up under Zong Zhengyu’s care and love.
She could not empathize with Chen Hua’s experience of growing up neglected.
However, she could understand.
“Forget about this matter.” Mu Anan answered albeit reluctantly.
Because her friendship with Chen Hua was more important.
Chen Hua was surprised. “Really?”
“But it’s only this time. If something like this happens again, I won’t let it go.”
“Thank you, Anan!”
Chen Hua was very touched and gave Mu Anan a big hug.
Mu Anan sighed, “Huahua, as your friend, I have to remind you that sometimes, if one doesn’t hold their own, they can’t live well.”
Chen Hua froze. She understood what Mu Anan meant.
However, some things were easier said than done.
Mu Anan didn’t want to say anything more. She let go of Chen Hua and handed her a tissue to wipe her face.
After Chen Hua tidied up, the two of them went up the office building.
Director Chang’s office was on the seventh floor.
When the two of them knocked on the door, Director Chang had just put down the phone.
Director Chang was a middle-aged man in his fifties. His hair was white, he wore gla.s.ses and was slightly plump.
Mu Anan started the introductions. “h.e.l.lo, Director Chang. We’re interns from the medical school who are here to report. I’m Mu Anan, and she’s Chen Hua.”
Chen Hua also greeted, “h.e.l.lo, Director Chang.”
As soon as the two of them finished their introductions, Director Chang blurted out with a frown, “I remember that there are three interns this time. Why are there only two of you?”
Mu Anan and Chen Hua looked at each other in confusion.
Yesterday, when the homeroom teacher announced their internship placements, only her and Chen Hua were placed at Blue Sky Mental Hospital.
How could there be a third intern?
“Director, only the two of us are here for our internship.” Mu Anan answered.
“Not from your cla.s.s. They said the other intern is one year your senior. His name is Huo, Huo something, I forgot…” Director Chang said, unable to recall the name of the other intern for a moment.
He then waved his hand. “Forget it, that’s not important. The important thing is that our hospital and First Affiliated have three days of joint orientation. Two interns from your school will also come over, so we can form a study group.”
As Director Chang spoke, he called another doctor over.
The doctor’s surname was Chen. He was a young, experienced medical doctor with a PhD. He would be responsible for Mu Anan and Chen Hua, as well as the 3-day joint orientation.
As Dr. Chen took Mu Anan and Chen Hua away, he briefly explained the orientation training to them.
Internship at the mental hospital was rather involving. There would be a few days of orientation where the main focus would be cla.s.ses, general knowledge, followed by an exam.
Only after pa.s.sing the exam would interns officially start work.
When Dr. Chen arrived at academic center with Mu Anan and Chen Hua, Mu Anan saw two familiar faces among the people who were already sitting in a cla.s.sroom. Their expressions didn’t look right.
Jiang Qin, Chen Jiali!
Mu Anan did not expect that the interns from First Affiliated that Director Chang mentioned were these two people.
Chen Hua subconsciously looked at Mu Anan.
Mu Anan’s face was calm and emotionless.
Jiang Qin still looked like a haughty young miss while Chen Jiali looked disdainful.
Dr. Chen said, “You two can sit in those seats, since all of you are from the same school.”
He was talking about the seats beside Jiang Qin and Chen Jiali.
Mu Anan didn’t say anything and walked over.
Chen Hua was worried that Mu Anan was still thinking about taking revenge on yesterday’s incident, so she quickened her pace and sat beside Chen Jiali before Mu Anan.
Chen Jiali felt very disgusted. “d.a.m.n fatty, don’t touch me. You smell bad, go sit somewhere else.”
She didn’t control her voice when she said this, so everyone in the cla.s.sroom heard her. Some of the people there even burst out laughing.
There were also many pairs of intrigued eyes on Chen Hua.
“I heard that fat people have a special body odor. I didn’t expect it to be true.”
“Look at her hair. It’s so greasy and dirty. How can she be a doctor?”
“Does she also cook while taking care of the patient?”
The surrounding people started mocking Chen Hua without hesitation.
Chen Hua’s face turned red with shame as she lowered her head.
Mu Anan, who was beside her, did not look too good. Before she could speak, Chen Hua pulled her back while shaking her head to ask Mu Anan to let it go.
Mu Anan was very angry at Chen Hua’s weakness. She s.n.a.t.c.hed her hand back and did not want to speak.
“Alright, let’s start the cla.s.s.” Dr. Chen reminded everyone on stage.
…
The cla.s.s lasted for an hour before it ended. There was a ten-minute break before the second cla.s.s.
Chen Hua held back her tears for an hour and wanted to run away after cla.s.s, but Chen Jiali grabbed her hand and ordered, “G.o.ddess Jiang Qin and I are thirsty. Go to the bubble tea shop opposite the hospital and buy us two cups of milk tea.”
Mu Anan immediately looked up and shot her a murderous look.
Chen Jiali met her gaze and slammed the table. “Pock-faced Mu, what the f*ck are you looking at? Be careful or I’ll dig your eyeb.a.l.l.s out.”
“Are you sure?” Mu Anan asked.
Chen Jiali stood up. “What do you mean by that? Do you think that you can be arrogant just because you have a few moves? You and Chen Hua are the same. One is ugly beyond the sky, and the other is fat beyond the earth. You two think you have the right to be arrogant?”
Chen Jiali’s words were very mean but Chen Hua and Mu Anan did look fat and ugly together.
But so what?
Mu Anan stared at Chen Jiali calmly. “Apologize now.”
“Pfft.” Chen Jiali continued in disdain, “Do you know who you are? Do you know who I am? Do you know who Miss Jiang Qin is? And you still dare to be arrogant in front of me? You’d better watch it, or you won’t even know why you died! Stupid orphan!”
Mu Anan’s eyes turned even colder.
Just as she was about to speak, Chen Hua interrupted, “Jiali, Anan, stop arguing. I’ll get the milk tea. Anan, help me apply for leave later.”
Mu Anan remained silent.
After Chen Hua left, she suddenly stood up, grabbed the back of Chen Jiali’s head, and pressed her head down on the table.
With a loud bang, the cla.s.sroom was in shock!
