Chapter 620 Mysophobia

Later, he dissected a rabbit and showed it to the teacher, saying that it was Jiaojiao who dissected it. However, the teacher saw through his mistake at a glance and he was punished to go hungry for three days. He also had to memorize a thick medical book every day. If he couldn't memorize it, he would go hungry for another day.

He had been hungry for five days in a row and lay weakly on the bed, blaming himself and feeling extremely guilty.

Later, the teacher asked him to go to eat and he didn't have to be punished.

He then realized that on that day, Jiaojiao dissected three rabbits in a row in front of the teacher.

When these memories came to his mind, Cheng Ying realized that he remembered them so clearly. Even though a lifetime had passed, he had never forgotten them.

He even remembered clearly how warm and brilliant the afternoon sun that day was when it shone on Jiaojiao's body.

He remembered her stubborn expression when she felt wronged, he remembered her pair of dark and bright eyes and how they looked when they turned red from crying, he remembered her confident and charming expression when she practiced medicine.

But all of this now seemed like a dream. That person and he were not separated forever, but belonged to two completely different worlds.

When Cheng Ying was dizzy and tortured by the gnawing longing, she did many crazy things, but they were all in vain.

By the time Cheng Ying came to her senses, Yu Jiao had already taken out the unformed cubs from the mother rabbit's belly. There were five or six weak and pitiful little pieces of flesh, which were so heartbreaking to look at.

Jianjia, who was helping her at the side, couldn't help but turn her head away, she really couldn't bear to watch.

Some people in the hall who saw this scene sighed in their hearts, what a sin!

Yu Jiao moved calmly as always. She took out a horn needle, threaded the catgut, and started to suture the female rabbit.

Cheng Ying threw the teacup on the table, changed her previous lazy look, stood up and walked to Yu Jiao, staring at Yu Jiao while she was stitching.

He looked at it for a long time, smiled deeply, and suddenly asked, "Where did you learn this laparotomy technique?"

Yu Jiao didn't look at him. She was still focused on her movements and answered concisely, "When I was young, I had a doctor in Huairou as my teacher."

Cheng Ying's eyes fell on her little face which looked extremely calm. This time he was really confused.

If the little girl remembered that he was the one who taught her this medical skill, why did she pretend not to know him at all every time she met him? And she pretended so well that even he couldn't tell whether she was acting or really didn't recognize him.

If he didn't remember him, how could he say with such certainty that he learned medical skills from someone in Huairou?

Cheng Ying turned the string of Buddhist beads on his right wrist and narrowed his eyes. He thought to himself for a while and still felt that the little girl was pretending not to know him. Otherwise, how could she dare to talk back to him and be so bold as to snatch the rabbit from his arms?

But this girl, who was timid before, has become so bold now. What on earth did she go through to have such a transformation? He will have to ask someone to investigate it thoroughly when he returns.

Yu Jiao sewed up and bandaged the rabbit. Her hands were covered in blood. After washing her hands in the basin, she looked at Cheng Ying and said, "I have shown you what you wanted to see. Are you satisfied?"

Cheng Ying looked at her for a long time, then suddenly raised his hands and clapped his hands, smiling and saying, "Not bad, I am very satisfied!"

"Does the governor's previous promise to give this rabbit to Yu Ning still stand?" Yu Jiao glanced at the female rabbit that was still lying there, and said slowly.

If this female rabbit is not carefully cared for, once the anesthetic wears off, she will definitely scratch the wound and will have difficulty surviving.

Cheng Ying followed Yu Jiao's gaze and glanced at the dying female rabbit. Its originally white fur was now stained with scarlet blood, looking extremely dirty.

He rubbed his fingers awkwardly, looked away, and said casually, "Since I've given it to you, it's yours."

Yu Jiao bowed and said, "Thank you, Governor."

Just then, Xia Ning, the Junior Chancellor of the East Factory, walked in with a woman. The woman was about thirty years old, with a slightly bulging belly and a look of fear and panic on her face.

"Governor, the people are here." Xia Ning said respectfully.

"Oh, it's no longer needed." Cheng Ying said in a perfunctory and cold manner, and then added, "Go and get me a basin of clean water!"

Xia Ning had followed Cheng Ying for many years and knew that Cheng Ying was obsessed with cleanliness. When he heard this, he realized that Supervisor Gong might have touched something dirty again. He immediately flew out of the house, but in a moment, he brought in a basin of clean water and knelt in front of Cheng Ying.

Cheng Ying immersed her two cold white hands completely in the clear water, and the disgusting feeling from touching the rabbit was finally swept away.

Everyone in the hall watched Cheng Ying wash her hands carefully until her cold white hands turned slightly red. Then Cheng Ying took her hands out of the basin and wiped each finger carefully with a handkerchief.

When Yu Jiao saw this scene, she couldn't help but think of her senior brother Fu Chuan. Her senior brother also had mysophobia, but it was very mild, not as exaggerated as this Governor Cheng.

Perhaps because she thought of her senior brother, Yu Jiao suddenly felt that Cheng Ying was not so scary after all.

He still hasn't mentioned the incident at the back of Lianxi Temple that day. Could it be that she misunderstood? Did this Cheng Dugong bring the rabbit over from the beginning to the end just to let her perform a caesarean section?
