Chapter 421 Thick Skin
After a brief headache and dizziness, Yu Zhiming felt a little better and regained his vision.
He saw Qing Ning slumped beside him, with tears the size of soybeans falling from her eyes one after another.
His face was filled with fear and self-blame.
Yu Zhiming reached out and gently wiped the tears from her eyes with his fingertips, comforting her: "Don't be afraid, I'm not that fragile. There were naughty kids who threw firecrackers at me before."
"That noise was much louder than the shouting you just made."
Gu Qingning choked up and said, "But, but, your nose is bleeding."
Yu Zhiming wiped the philtrum and saw a pool of bright red blood on his finger.
He felt his body and said, "It's okay, my blood pressure just spiked and the capillaries in my nasal mucosa broke."
As he spoke, Yu Zhiming stood up and pulled Gu Qingning up with him.
Afterwards, he was supported by his fourth sister and Qing Ning on both sides and sat down on the sofa.
Gu Qingning quickly took out a few tissues from the paper box on the coffee table and carefully wiped Yu Zhiming's nosebleed.
Yu Xiangwan asked with concern, "Old Five, do you want to go to the hospital for a checkup?"
Yu Zhiming said softly, "No need. It will be fine once you get over the discomfort."
He then advised, “Sister, don’t blame Qing Ning. She didn’t mean it. She just wanted to play a joke on me.”
"Look at her, you're also scared."
Gu Qingning, whose face had turned into a clown and whose eyelashes were filled with tears, quickly put on a pitiful look.
Yu Zhiming dragged his sister into the water again and said, "Sister, you have done similar things before."
Yu Xiangwan snorted softly, "How could it be the same as now? I was barely ten years old then, right? How could I have thought so much?"
"I still remember clearly that my mother and eldest sister beat me up afterward."
Gu Qingning raised her little hand and said timidly, "Sister, please give me a beating too. I really did something stupid and brainless this time."
Yu Xiangwan glanced at her and said with a hint of indignation, "Since Lao Wu is so protective of you, who would dare to hit you?"
Seeing that Yu Zhiming's face had recovered a lot from its previous paleness and his expression was much calmer, and it didn't look like he had any serious problems, she stood up.
"I'm going to make breakfast..."
Gu Qingning sobbed and asked, "Zhiming, are you really okay? Should I take you to Ning'an for a checkup?"
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "It's really okay. Don't I take my own health seriously?"
"Are you really okay?"
"It couldn't be more true."
Gu Qingning met Yu Zhiming's gaze and did not feel any blame. Her lips trembled a few times, and the next moment she threw herself into Yu Zhiming's arms and began to cry.
"Wuwu... I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."
"I just had a brain twitch... woo woo..."
Yu Zhiming hugged Qing Ning tighter and said, "I know, and I won't blame you. Don't cry."
"But I blame myself. I shouldn't have been so careless..."
"I'm not a good girlfriend... woo woo..."
"Zhiming, I'm scared. I'm so scared that it will cause irreversible consequences... wuwu..."
Yu Zhiming patted her back gently and said comfortingly, "Don't be afraid. I'm fine now, aren't I?"
"Qingning, let me tell you, I grew up in the countryside, which means I'm very tough and not as fragile as I appear..."
After crying for a while, and with Yu Zhiming's comfort, Gu Qingning, who was frightened for a moment, calmed down emotionally.
After breakfast, Yu Xiangwan went to the canteen to work in the rain.
Gu Qingning, who stayed at home, took good care of Yu Zhiming to make up for her mistake, allowing him to live a decadent life with only his mouth and eyes...
Around ten o'clock in the morning, Yu Zhiming received a call from his elder sister.
"Old Five, your third sister brought over the ginseng and American ginseng early this morning. When our father found out about the price, he was heartbroken."
"They said the ginseng and American ginseng from last time were of better quality and must have commanded a higher price. They shouldn't have been so generous in giving them away."
Yu Zhiming smiled and said, "Let our father be more cautious this time."
"Sister, slice up the American ginseng. Soak seven or eight slices in a cup of water in the morning. Drink several cups of this soaking water throughout the day, and then eat the slices in the evening."
The eldest sister, Yu Zhaoxia, hummed and said, "Over the past period of time, my parents and I have basically been drinking American ginseng slices like this."
“I can feel that I sleep better at night and my body has become more energetic.”
After a pause, Yu Zhaoxia turned and said, "Lao Wu, I want to discuss something with you."
"Recently, there have been a few people who have come to Xiaobo to propose marriage. The girls have good education, looks, and jobs."
"I told Xiaobo everything, but he told me to turn it all down. Laowu, does Xiaobo have a crush on a girl in Binhai?"
Yu Zhiming looked at Gu Qingning and saw her shaking her head.
"Sister, I haven't heard of it."
"Xiao Bo is very busy right now. In addition to the renovation of my house, he has three other renovation projects in progress."
"He's busy every day, so he probably doesn't have time for a girlfriend."
Yu Zhaoxia said with some melancholy, "Old Five, Xiaobo is already 25, it's time for him to find a girlfriend."
"He listens to you very much, tell me about him."
Yu Zhiming could hardly hold back his laughter.
Finally, he was relieved. The target of pressure to get married finally shifted from him and his fourth sister to the next generation.
He chuckled and said, "Big sister, leave it to me. There are many beautiful nurses in the hospital."
After a pause, Yu Zhiming reminded, "Sister, Xiaobo must develop in Binhai."
"For those introduced by my family, unless their conditions are exceptional, I'd try to turn them down..."
After finishing the call with his elder sister, Yu Zhiming was about to call Xiaobo when his cell phone rang again.
It was a call from Academician Tan Ying...
"Doctor Yu, you have discovered another treasure."
Yu Zhiming could clearly hear that Academician Tan's voice was filled with excitement and enthusiasm.
"Ning Zuo's hyperplastic liver lobe is the only nearly perfect, positive liver deformity I've seen in all my years of medical practice, with no obvious side effects."
"This is the magic and ingenuity of nature. It surpasses the limits of our human imagination and ingeniously adds another lobe to our liver."
Tan Ying sighed, then said excitedly, "Doctor Yu, this enlarged liver lobe that can function normally has enormous medical research value."
"Apart from anything else, this has provided a groundbreaking example of a transplant pathway for liver transplantation, and also brought new ideas to surgeries such as liver bypass surgery."
"In short, Dr. Yu, your discovery is of great significance in the field of liver research."
"Let me tell you first, we'll celebrate together after the preliminary research results come out."
"That's it for now, I have to get busy..."
When Yu Zhiming finished the call, he saw Gu Qingning coming over with her hand covering the microphone of the phone.
"It's Uncle Meng Yan calling to confirm the physical examination that will start at noon."
Gu Qingning asked worriedly, "Your body, do you really not need to cancel it?"
Yu Zhiming chuckled and said, "No need to cancel or postpone, I can handle it. Tell him there's no problem on my end."
Gu Qingning said "oh" and confirmed the time, place and other matters with Meng Yan on the phone.
She finally emphasized, "The maximum number of people who can undergo a physical examination is no more than fifty. This is the bottom line."
"Once we have examined fifty people, we will consider the agreement complete and leave..."
"We'll take care of dinner ourselves..."
Yu Zhiming waited for Gu Qingning to finish the call, then called Fu Xiaobo.
"Xiao Bo, your mother called and told me to worry about your marriage."
"This is my unshirkable responsibility."
"Tell me, what kind do you like? If the unmarried, pretty nurse in the hospital doesn't have a thousand, there's always five hundred."
“You can always find the type you like.”
After Yu Zhiming took on all the responsibilities, he was rejected by the other party, who said that he wanted to develop his career first and then find a girlfriend after he achieved success.
"Xiao Bo, don't give me that excuse. There's no conflict between pursuing a career and having a relationship."
Yu Zhiming said: "The reason why a man refuses is either because he already has a target, or because he knows that his conditions are too poor and girls will not be interested in him."
"Xiao Bo, tell me, which one are you?"
"Hey, uncle, I don't want to find a nurse. I just want to find a girlfriend with better conditions after I succeed in my career."
Yu Zhiming criticized him, "Xiao Bo, don't think too highly of yourself. There are many nurses in the hospital who marry bosses and successful people."
"To be frank, you only have a high school diploma, are dark and not handsome, and don't have a house or a car. It's the nurse who's picking on you, not you."
Fu Xiaobo replied unconvincedly, "Uncle, don't look down on me. I'm not dark, I have a healthy chocolate complexion."
"Also, I'm very manly and masculine, okay? You treat me like a weed, but some people treat me like a treasure."
"Treasure it?"
Yu Zhiming repeated it and asked, "Xiao Bo, you're not hooking up with a rich woman, are you?"
"Be careful or your legs might break!"
Fu Xiaobo quickly replied, "Uncle, please don't talk nonsense. Okay, I'll tell you, I am indeed in a relationship."
"Who is the other party? How old is he? What are his conditions? Where is he from?" Yu Zhiming asked several questions in succession.
Gu Qingning also came over curiously.
Fu Xiaobo chuckled into his phone and said, "She's the same age as me, a local from Binhai, studied abroad, and works in advertising design."
Hearing this, Yu Zhiming frowned.
The girl has very good conditions, Xiaobo is a bit out of his league.
"Hey, her father is also a doctor at Huashan Hospital, an associate chief physician in the plastic surgery department."
"Hey, I'm renovating her house..."
Hearing this, Yu Zhiming gritted his teeth.
"You two are dating in private, her parents don't even know about it, right?"
"Hehe, uncle, you guessed right. I want to wait until my career gets better before I make my relationship with her public."
"Uncle, will you support me?"
Yu Zhiming snorted coldly and asked, "I'm just confused. How could such a good girl like you be the one she likes?"
"Uncle, it's because I'm handsome and thick-skinned."
"Uncle, let me tell you, Zhu Jun and I both like her, and we agreed to compete fairly."
"Finally, she chose me, hehe..."
Please support me with monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, etc.!!!
