Chapter 474: Sorry, she is afraid of needles

Meng Chuyuan couldn't help but look back, and just saw someone walking in with a mobile phone and a prescription from the hospital in his hand. Her eyes flashed slightly, as if she saw a life-saving straw.

She turned around and looked at the strange man behind her who was playing with his phone with his head down. A smile appeared on her face. "Sir, are you in a hurry? How about you queue in front of me?"

"..." Lu Qingye stood by and saw that the puncture site on his hand had stopped bleeding. He threw the cotton swab into the trash can. He was not paying attention when this scene happened. He had never expected that Meng Chuyuan would do this.

The man heard someone talking to him. He raised his head and saw Meng Chuyuan taking the initiative to give up his seat. He was a little confused and was about to speak when his cell phone suddenly rang.

"Thank you, but I probably don't need it." The man thanked Meng Chuyuan and then pointed at his phone and said, "Sorry, I have to go out and answer a call first."

Meng Chuyuan stood there without moving, her legs seemed to be nailed down and she couldn't move. She hesitated for a long time until the nurse called her over. Meng Chuyuan slowly moved her feet and sat down anxiously, her hands hanging naturally, clasped together, and placed on her legs.

The nurse held a tourniquet in her hand, glanced down at Meng Chuyuan, and reminded her, "Stretch out your hand."

She let out a soft "oh", then pulled up her sleeves and slowly stretched out her hand.

The next second, the nurse tied a tourniquet above Meng Chuyuan's elbow and disinfected the area to be punctured with a cotton swab dipped in iodine. Then, the nurse inserted the other end of the blood sample collection needle into the vacuum blood collection tube.

Everything went smoothly until the nurse found her vein and was about to insert the needle. She suddenly retracted her hand and her elbow became bent.

"..." The nurse was stunned for a second, and even the mask couldn't hide the helplessness on her face. "Don't move, it's easy to inject the needle by mistake."

Lu Qingye took the initiative to explain on Meng Chuyuan's behalf: "I'm sorry, she's afraid of needles."

The nurse glanced at Meng Chuyuan and muttered, "You're so old, but you're still afraid of needles..."

Meng Chuyuan blushed and said apologetically, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

She is afraid of injections.

Every time she saw the needle piercing the skin, she would feel a strong sense of discomfort and fear in her heart, and subconsciously think of the scene of her mother being forced to receive an injection.

Meng Chuyuan has her blood drawn for annual physical examinations, and occasionally gets sick and needs injections. Even after experiencing this many times, she still can't overcome the fear in her heart.

Seeing that Meng Chuyuan was beautiful and had a gentle attitude, the nurse's patience was not only rekindled, but she also comforted her: "It's okay, don't be nervous."

“…Okay.” Meng Chuyuan breathed a sigh of relief and stretched out his hand again.

The nurse gently grasped her arm, her eyes fixed on the vein in the middle of her elbow, and then revealed the needle in her hand. "Don't move this time."

Meng Chuyuan was trying hard to stay calm, suppressing his pounding heart, and hummed softly with a trembling voice.

Lu Qingye stood beside her, held her right hand, and said softly: "If you are afraid, close your eyes and don't look."

After he finished speaking, Lu Qingye raised his other hand, placed his palm against Meng Chuyuan's eyebrows, and manually helped her close her eyes.

Meng Chuyuan felt her eyes go dark and she could not see anything. Then she felt a slight stinging pain in her hand and the tourniquet was untied and loosened.

After a while, the nurse pulled out the needle, took a clean cotton swab and pressed it between her elbows, asking her to hold it for a while.

After completing the blood test, Lu Qingye continued to accompany Meng Chuyuan to complete all the remaining physical examination items, and then he went to do his own unique physical examination items.

When Lu Qingye said he wanted to act alone, Meng Chuyuan asked curiously, "How many projects do you have left to check?"

"Not much." Lu Qingye prepared breakfast for Meng Chuyuan in advance and found a suitable place for her to sit and eat. "Wait for me here."

Meng Chuyuan nodded, "Okay, go ahead."

She sat alone in the quiet corridor, drinking milk and eating a sandwich.

During the long wait, Meng Chuyuan was bored and walked back and forth in the corridor, occasionally playing with his mobile phone.
