Chapter 300 An Apple (Revised)
The first day of combat training ended inconclusively. Teacher Dong Yue stayed behind to comfort the tutors and children, while Teacher Mu Xun accompanied Zuo Shan.
Zuo Shan carried A Chen and followed Bo Yiyan to the school clinic. Although she had taken away A Chen's little hoe, A Chen was still muttering, "Mommy, are these flowers pretty?"
“Beautiful, but you should go to sleep now. You have to get up early for morning exercise tomorrow.” Zuo Shan whispered in his ear.
She thought it was better for boys to be more robust, so she had always let Ah Chen grow up freely. Moreover, he was born with the ability to foresee disasters, so she rarely worried about him.
But unexpectedly, in what should have been the safest place on campus, he suffered the most serious injury of his life.
It's no wonder that Achen's warning ability wasn't triggered, because a third-tier poison-type ability is no match for a fourth-tier mental-type ability, not to mention that Achen also carries the Floating Cloud Pearl, which can defend against eighth-tier ability attacks.
However, what Zuo Shan and A Chen didn't know was that the Floating Cloud Pearl could withstand all kinds of attacks, but it had no resistance to poison.
Because the harm caused by poison is silent and does not cause strong energy fluctuations, it cannot trigger the defense of the Floating Cloud Pearl.
One entire wall of Bo Yiyan's school clinic is occupied by shelves, which are filled with bottles and jars of strange colors.
Zuo Shan saw him casually pick up a few glass bottles and then pour liquid into an empty bottle without using a measuring device.
After these strangely colored liquids mixed together, the bottle began to boil, then calmed down after a while, turning into a bottle of thick, dark green liquid.
Then he handed the bottle to Zuo Shan and said, "Feed him this!"
Zuo Shan nervously rubbed his palms together and took several deep breaths before finally mustering the courage to take the bottle.
If she had a choice, she really wouldn't want to give Achen this strange liquid with unknown effects, because she felt that the great doctor's method of preparing the medicine was similar to that of a chef, with each ingredient only able to be described with a vague word—appropriate amount.
The problem is that he was given medicine to treat an illness, not a dish of food, which just doesn't seem scientific!
But thinking about the herbs prepared by ancient shamans, I guess they didn't have any precise measuring instruments and could only rely on experience to determine the appropriate amount.
Well, since he's the school doctor, and a renowned physician at that, she has no choice but to trust him.
Ah Chen was already asleep, but when he heard his mother's familiar voice, "Good boy, open your mouth and drink reindeer milk!", he still opened his mouth groggily, closed his eyes, and "gulp gulp" down a bottle of thick, dark green medicine.
After drinking it, he seemed to think it tasted pretty good, and unconsciously smacked his lips a few times before turning his head to continue sleeping.
But he kept frowning in his sleep, clearly uncomfortable, and then he started breathing rapidly and opening his mouth wide.
Bo Yiyan picked him up like a little chick, handed him an empty plastic bag, and said with a look of disgust, "He's going to throw up, catch it carefully, whatever you do, don't let him vomit it out!"
Zuo Shan hurriedly did as instructed, and soon, A Chen began to vomit profusely.
After he finished vomiting, Bo Yiyan handed Zuo Shan a bottle of water. She quickly fed Achen a couple of sips and whispered in his ear, "Your mouth smells so sour and stinky, it's awful! Baby, rinse your mouth and then vomit!"
Although Ah Chen was still in a semi-comatose state, he obediently rinsed his mouth and then spat out the water.
After dealing with all of this, Bo raised his hand, and green healing energy slowly flowed into his body.
Gradually, Ah Chen's brows relaxed, and he even curled up the corners of his lips in his sleep, smiling innocently.
Every time Zuo Shan saw him smile like that, she couldn't help but lean down and kiss his forehead, and this time was no exception.
Bo Yiyan, who was watching from the side, felt that the woman was as if she was coated with a holy light. The maternal radiance enveloped the entire space, and even he, whose body and mind were covered by darkness, drew a trace of warmth from this radiance.
"Madam, I added a sleeping pill to his medicine. He should be able to sleep until noon tomorrow."
He suffered damage from neurotoxins, and sleep is a means for him to repair himself, so don't wake him up unnecessarily before he wakes up on his own.
When Bo Yiyan said this, he unusually put away his casual demeanor and put on a serious expression.
It was only then that she noticed the man's appearance for the first time.
This doctor, whose smile was devilishly charming, revealed a completely different, serious face after suppressing his unruly and seductive nature.
His eyes were deep, his slightly furrowed brows formed two deep lines, and his tightly pursed lips revealed an undeniable determination.
He exudes an unapproachable and composed aura, inspiring awe in all who behold him.
That's what makes him a truly experienced doctor, giving patients and their families a sense of trust and security.
Zuo Shan felt that this person seemed to be able to change his face, changing his image every now and then, but then he thought that geniuses are usually quite strange, so he let it go.
"Alright, you can take him back now. Remember to bring him here for treatment five minutes before sunrise each day for the next two days," Bo Yiyan said, waving his hand.
"Thank you, Dr. Bo. I will definitely bring him here on time." Zuo Shan bowed in thanks, then picked up Achen and left the school clinic.
Just as I was about to leave, I felt a breeze and saw a bright red apple, about 15 centimeters in diameter, floating in front of me.
"This is a mutated apple. Its fragrance can calm the nerves and help you sleep, and it can also help repair damaged nerves. Put it by the child's bedside." Bo Yiyan's light voice came from behind.
Zuo Shan accepted the apple, turned around and looked at him sincerely, saying, "Dr. Bo, you are truly the kindest doctor in the world."
"It would be even better if you could use a measuring device to prepare the medicine," she silently added to herself.
"Kindness? Heh, this is the first time I've received such a compliment. Goodbye, ma'am!" Bo Yiyan's smile didn't reach his eyes, as if he were mocking himself.
After Zuo Shan walked away, he muttered to himself, "Just an apple, and you get such a kind evaluation? If you knew how many patients I've personally killed, you probably wouldn't say such things anymore."
You're the first patient's family member to witness me prepare the medication without screaming or questioning anything. This apple is a reward for you.
Zuo Shan walked out of the school clinic and saw Kong Lan waiting outside with Kong Lingling. Both of them had worried expressions on their faces.
"How is it?" Kong Lan asked anxiously.
"He's taken his medicine and undergone treatment. Dr. Bo said he needs sleep now," Zuo Shan explained briefly.
“Ms. Zuo Shan, when Brother Chen wakes up, I want to apologize to him in person. I shouldn’t have broken his nose twice,” Kong Lingling said with a face full of guilt.
“You are classmates and will become partners in the future. It’s inevitable to get injured during practice, but try to avoid it on your face. It would be such a pity if your pretty face was left with a scar, don’t you think?” Zuo Shan said softly.
There are relatively few girls in the wasteland. Of the 25 cubs in this class, only 8 are girls. Zuo Shan still wants to raise a few suitable childhood sweethearts for A Chen.
Although Kong Lingling is a bit reckless, she doesn't seem to be a bad person, so she's within the range that can be considered for now.
But even if Ah Chen remains a bachelor in the future, he can't marry such a ruthless woman as his daughter-in-law, given her utter disdain for the little poisonous woman.
After this thought popped into her head, Zuo Shan couldn't help but laugh at herself. Was she prematurely putting herself in the role of a mother-in-law? But her son, Achen, was only six years old!
