Chapter Five: An Unexpected Encounter

  This afternoon, there were no boring girls teasing him, but rather patients coming to see him with some minor problems. Although Xiao Lin secretly scolded a certain unscrupulous guy in his heart, he still treated these patients with a very serious and responsible attitude.

  "Doctor, don't I need to take medicine? I've had a cold for three days!" Although the female patient felt much lighter on her body under Xiao Lin's acupuncture, she was still somewhat puzzled that she didn't need to take medicine.

  "You just caught a slight chill, if your body's resistance was stronger, you wouldn't need to take medicine at all. Medicine is three parts poison, this kind of minor illness doesn't require taking medicine!" Xiao Lin had just used acupuncture to drive out the cold air from the patient's body with a few needles, and her cold naturally got better.

  "Doctor, thank you so much!" The girl was overjoyed. When going to the hospital for a check-up, who doesn't need to take medicine? Although it's just a school hospital and student medical insurance can reimburse 80%, there is still a minimum amount that needs to be met for reimbursement. For something like a common cold, which is below the minimum reimbursement threshold, now she only needs to see the doctor without taking any medicine, so the treatment fee is much lower.

  It's also interesting that when it was almost 5:30 and time to get ready to leave work, the queue of people at the emergency room entrance finally started to dwindle. Even so, the doctors and nurses in the emergency room didn't finish their shift until 6 o'clock.

  Xiao Ling drove his unassuming QQ car, cruising along the congested highway, it was rush hour again, and the traffic jam was almost identical to this morning.

  Going home is also nothing to do, Xiao Lin doesn't seem to be in a hurry like this morning going to work, it's just that every day is stuck in traffic on the way to and from work, it's not a big deal, I guess I should find a house near my workplace to rent.

  "It seems that I'll have to find a place to stay near the school for the next two days!" Xiao Lin muttered to herself, then leaned out of the car window and looked ahead. The long line of cars was moving slowly forward, not even as fast as walking: "How long is this going to take?!" Although it wasn't Xiao Lin's first time in Yanjing, she rarely traveled during rush hour on other trips, usually traveling more at night.

  Xiao Lin's car was driving on the second lane closest to the street, and she could see the shops above the street quite clearly. It was rush hour now, and this section of road was also one of the busiest commercial areas in Yanjing, but there were not many people on the pedestrian paths on both sides of the road at this time.

  In the blink of an eye, I suddenly saw a familiar face, but that familiar face was now heavily made up with bright red lipstick and black tight leather clothes, looking at least twenty-five or six years old. Next to that familiar face were several young people dressed in strange attire, clearly a group of social misfits.

  "It's really her!" Xiao Lin was extremely excited, directly inserting the key and turning it on, then frantically honking the horn, wanting to squeeze onto the pedestrian path at the side of the road.

  Although many car owners next to him scolded Xiao Lin's QQ for not following traffic rules, they had no choice but to give way. Xiao Lin directly squeezed into the lane closest to the roadside, then made a turn and drove onto the pedestrian path, stopping beside a tree.

  Xiao Lin had been keeping an eye on that familiar figure, and just as Xiao Lin stopped the car, that figure was about to turn a corner. Xiao Lin didn't even pull out the car key before opening the door and getting out of the car.

  However, when Xiao Lin opened the car door, what was reflected in his eyes was a stunningly beautiful face. But this face was also too cold, with a hint of anger in its coldness. Xiao Lin looked up and saw a beautiful woman standing beside the car door, staring at him coldly, dressed in a police uniform.

  "Is it you?" Xiao Lin and the female police officer standing outside the car door almost shouted in unison.

  What appeared in Xiao Lin's eyes was the long-legged female traffic police officer from that morning, but this time Xiao Lin didn't have the energy to care about her and simply said: "Move aside!"

  "You've violated..." The long-legged policewoman hadn't finished speaking when Xiao Lin reached out to push her away, wanting to get out of the car. The policewoman's skills seemed not bad, seeing Xiao Lin stretch out his hand, she coldly smiled and her seemingly delicate right hand formed a fist and suddenly struck out, wanting to teach Xiao Lin a lesson.

  Xiao Lin didn't expect the female traffic police to be so explosive, directly using force. The palm that was originally pushing out turned into a fist, and with a burst of strength, the female traffic police retreated three steps. Taking advantage of this gap, Xiao Lin got out of the car and said, "You can handle the traffic violation as you like, but don't block my way!" After finishing speaking, he quickly ran in the direction of the shadow from earlier.

  Wu Xue did not expect that this doctor, who looked like he was only in his early twenties, would have such good martial arts skills. Although she was a newly appointed traffic police officer, it was only because of family reasons. Originally, she was a graduate student in criminal investigation at the Huaxia Public Security University and had won several school fighting championships, with very good martial arts skills. However, her family thought being a detective was too dangerous, and since she was their only daughter, they arranged for her to work in the traffic police department instead.

  Wu Shuang naturally knew her own abilities, ordinary people couldn't get close to her even if there were seven or eight of them, especially since she was an elite from the Public Security University, her skills would never be weak. Originally with Wu Shuang's skills, she should have been assigned to the Special Police Unit, but it was just that her family really didn't agree.

  Wu Shuang's fiery temper flared up instantly, and he couldn't believe that the young doctor had knocked him back with just one punch. Especially since the other party had only casually thrown out a fist, although Wu Shuang hadn't used much force either. He hastily shouted: "You've broken traffic rules and you're still so arrogant, come back here!" As soon as Wu Shuang turned around to look behind him, in the time it took to say this one sentence, Xiao Lin had already turned around at the street corner thirty meters away.

  "This scoundrel!" Wu Shuang kicked the car door hard, leaving a footprint on it: "I don't believe I'll let you drive this car home today, Wu!" After finishing speaking, Wu Shuang immediately took out her phone and dialed a number to the traffic police's towing department, reported the address, and prepared to have Xiao Lin's car towed away.

  Xiao Lin's speed was fast enough, but from the start to seeing that back shadow and stopping the car, at least three minutes had passed. Adding Wu Shuang's obstruction, by the time Xiao Lin looked towards the street entrance again, the back shadow had already disappeared.

  Xiao Lin ran to the street corner and looked around, this street was a commercial street, crowded with people coming and going, lined with shops, where could he still see that familiar figure from just now. In fact, even if Wu Shuang didn't block Xiao Lin, just the time it took for him to park his car was enough for someone to disappear from his sight.

  Xiao Lin didn't give up, but quickly walked from the street to the end, hoping to still see that somewhat familiar figure from just now. However, in the vast sea of people, where was that somewhat familiar figure?

  "Now that it's been confirmed she's in this city, it's only a matter of time before I find her!" Xiao Lin was not blaming Wu Xue, but rather encouraging herself.

  It took twenty minutes for a round trip on the business street, let alone Xiao Lin was looking for someone. When Xiao Lin returned to the parking location, it was already half an hour later.

  Xiao Lin was looking for the silhouette, thinking about what would happen to his QQ car. However, he didn't expect that when he returned to the parking spot, it was empty, and the QQ car was gone. Instead, he found a fine notice with a few words: "This vehicle seriously violated traffic rules, fined 2,000 yuan, please go to the Chengnan Traffic Police Brigade to handle the relevant procedures."

  "My goodness!" Even a clay figure has a temper, let alone Xiao Lin who was originally unable to find the person she was looking for and was already feeling somewhat depressed. When she came back, her beloved car was gone. That little girl was clearly taking revenge on herself for saying she was ill this morning.

  But what I said is true, that little girl really has a disease!

  "You're really a spoiled little girl!" Xiao Lin's anger dissipated all at once, since you want to play, I'll play big with you.

  But he himself broke the traffic rules, Xiao Lin knew what kind of nature it was, and would absolutely not be towed to the traffic police brigade, but also had to pay a fine of 2,000 yuan, this is too bullying.

  It's almost seven o'clock now, and I'm not familiar with the bus here, Xiao Lin doesn't know which bus to take home. After thinking about it, he had no choice but to pick up his phone, dial a number, say a few words, find a supermarket, buy some things, and sit on the supermarket's resting chair to fill his stomach first.

  Twenty minutes later, a BMW that had just been launched this year appeared at the entrance of the supermarket, instantly attracting many people's attention. This BMW costs at least five million yuan, and only rich second-generation and red second-generation can afford to drive such a car and dare to show off on the street.

  A extremely handsome man wearing all white clothes walked down, instantly drawing the eyes of all the girls nearby. To say that there are women who don't care about wealth and status, I believe it. To say that there are women who don't care about looks, I also believe it. But to say that there are women who don't care about both combined, I don't believe it.

  Hua Qingyi, a man as his name suggests, is clear and elegant. Every time he appears, he becomes the focus of the entire scene, no matter what the occasion. As long as there are women under 40 present, none of them can help but gaze at him, and Hua Qingyi also enjoys such attention.

  "My god, you're still as flashy as ever!" Xiao Lin walked out of the supermarket entrance and saw that very eye-catching BMW and Hua Qingyi standing beside it.

  "Brother, how did you end up so miserable? Your car was even towed?" Hua Qingyi saw Xiao Lin, who was usually optimistic, now with a hapless expression, and felt an indescribable sense of comfort in his heart.

  "We still have an account to settle!" Seeing Hua Qingyi's expression unchanged, Xiao Lin thought of today's experience at work. It was Hua Qingyi who introduced Xiao Lin to the emergency department of the school hospital, saying that even if you go to work, there are only a few patients in a day, and it's very quiet. However, today's situation was not like that.

  "Brother, where did I offend you again?" Hu Qingyi was puzzled with a confused face.

  Xiao Lin walked to the side of Hua Qing Yi, and suddenly felt like a follower. Xiao Lin was already quite tall at 183 cm, and he looked handsome enough that on his first day of work, many students came to see him for treatment. However, when compared to Hua Qing Yi, it was like being a follower - not as handsome, not as tall. Xiao Lin hastily urged: "You rascal, can't you just wait in the car? Why did you have to come down?"

  "Got on the car, Hua Qingyi asked: "Brother, where are we going to play tonight?""

  "What's fun in Yanjing?" Xiao Lin asked faintly.

  Hua Qingyi was just casually asking, and before Xiao Lin came to Yanjing, he had never gone out to play. Now that Xiao Lin said this, Hua Qingyi was taken aback and said, "Brother, have you opened your eyes?"

  Xiao Lin tapped Hu Qingyi's head and said, "What enlightenment? Did I not enlighten before?"

  "Either you're a virgin or you've got a clear conscience!" Hu Qingyi muttered to himself.

  "What nonsense!" Xiao Lin glared at Hua Qingyi.

  "Nothing, nothing!" Hu Qingyi hastily smiled and said: "Right, brother, it's the first day of work today, isn't that idle enough?"

  "Leisurely?" Xiao Lin regretted listening to this kid's suggestion, that place absolutely had nothing to do with leisure: "Don't joke around, such a big school, the emergency room plus me makes three doctors, and today one of them isn't even coming, I'm so busy I'm having the time of my life!"

  "Brother, isn't that right? I've already asked around, and almost all school hospitals are very quiet, not many people want to go to the school hospital for medical treatment, at most they just treat colds and flu!" Hu Qingyi glanced at Xiao Lin, saying: "Is it because many girls go there for medical treatment?"

  "Hmm!" Xiao Lin nodded.

  "I told you, brother's charm is great! But don't worry, I'm sure after a few days the novelty will wear off and things will be back to normal!" Hua Qingyi said with a smile, having experienced such things himself. Back in school, which class didn't have a crowded doorway after that one lesson? Hua Qingyi shamelessly laughed: "Brother, for someone as stylish as us, you should get used to the admiring gazes around you!"

  "By the way, help me find a house near school to rent. I'm currently living too far from school and it's always congested during rush hour, can't take it!"

  "Brother, why don't we just go back to my place and stay there? Why insist on staying outside?"

  Xiao Lin gave a cold glance at Hua Qingyi and said, "I'd rather see you bring back different mediocre women every night. I say, you're quite the handsome guy, but your taste is really low, can't it be any higher?"

  "To each their own, to each their own!" Hua Qingyi couldn't really refute this point, but he himself actually loved those women with big buttocks and breasts who wore heavy makeup.

  As the two of them were talking, Huaying's car had already driven into the most famous bar street in Yanjing. This street was lined with bars and KTVs, places for entertainment. As long as you had money, at night, you were the king here.
