Xia Chengtian looked at the rain outside the window with a complicated mood.
He had never liked rain very much. When he buried his wife in this town, it also rained heavily.
"Master." At this time, there was a knock on the door and Jin Yuan's voice: "Lunch is ready."
"Oh..." Xia Chengtian walked to the door, opened it, and asked, "Is the second young master of the Huo family okay?"
"Well... I just have a low fever. I took some medicine and have fallen asleep now."
"That's good."
Xia Chengtian and Huo Tianheng had a good personal relationship. He had contacted Huo Tianheng and said that he would send Huo Jianan back after he recovered a little. Huo Tianheng originally wanted to send someone to pick up his son in person, but Xia Chengtian still insisted that as a doctor, he hoped that he could be there
After his clinic recovers, he will be sent back.
Today is a rest day for the clinic. However, there is usually a doctor on duty. Jin Yuan is the doctor on duty today. In addition, there is also a nurse named Nan Xiaoyu. As for cooking, Xia Lin is responsible for it.
I have always been very knowledgeable in cooking.
"Meow……"
Charlene sprinkled cat food on the plate, and the cat immediately came over to feast. Xia Chengtian looked at this scene and said, "Cats cannot be raised inside the clinic. You can take them home and raise them."
"I know...Dad..."
At this time, the door of the nearby consulting room opened and Huo Jianan came out.
"Sorry..." Huo Jianan looked stunned and said to Xia Chengtian: "Dr. Xia, I'm sorry to trouble you. The money for the medicine..."
His voice was obviously a bit hoarse, and it was obvious that he had not recovered yet.
"You go back and rest," Xia Chengtian walked up, touched his forehead and said, "It's still a little hot."
Nurse Nan Xiaoyu, who was sitting next to Xia Lin, immediately stood up and said to Huo Jianan with a smile: "Do you still remember me? Huo Jianan?"
Huo Jianan was stunned, took a closer look at Nan Xiaoyu, and after a long time said: "Are you...Nan Xiaoyu?"
"Well...it's great that you still remember me!" Nan Xiaoyu smiled and said, "I was the cheerleader of your football team back then. Later, you said you wanted to take the medical university entrance exam, so I followed suit and wanted to take the exam...
…”
Then she said with a little embarrassment: "In the end, I didn't become a doctor, but became a nurse..."
Jin Yuanze also said hello and said: "Huo Jianan, I am Jin Yuan... I was in the same class as you..."
"Well... I still remember you..." He said that, but Huo Jianan's impression was no longer very deep. At that time, all he could think about was exams, exams, exams.
Xia's clinic is not big, and there are only a few doctors, mainly because those medical students are more willing to work in large private hospitals. Only a few people will work in clinics in such small towns.
"Let me serve you some porridge."
Huo Jianan said, 'Just... give me a cup of hot water."
When Charlene listened to Huo Jianan's voice, it seemed that her hoarseness was getting worse and worse. She poured a cup of hot water for Huo Jianan, and then said, "Go back and have a rest quickly."
"Well..." Huo Jianan reluctantly nodded, took the glass of water and took a sip.
After he returned to the room, Charlene returned to the dining table.
"Sister Xia Lin," nurse Nan Xiaoyu smiled and said, "You like the second young master of the Huo family, right?"
"You, what are you talking about..." Xia Lin just picked up the chopsticks. When she heard Nan Xiaoyu's words, she almost dropped the chopsticks to the ground, "I..."
"The genes of the Huo family seem to be very good. Huo Jialin, the eldest son of the Huo family, I used to come to watch Huo Jianan's games when he played football. He is really handsome."
"You just seemed to be saying..." At this moment, Jin Yuan suddenly seemed to think of something and said to Nan Xiaoyu: "You just said that you were planning to get into the medical university because of Huo Jianan? Do you like him too?"
"Well... that's all in the past." Nan Xiaoyu smiled bitterly: "Sister Xia Lin, you can chase him if you want. I have no objection."
"I don't have that idea..."
"But I think you're blushing a bit...haha..."
Charlene smiled bitterly and said, "Where can such a thing happen..."
Huo Jianan...
She couldn't help but look back. She hadn't seen him for so long. Huo Jianan's melancholy temperament now made her feel a little excited again. The vague feelings from her youth also came to her heart a little bit.
.
"I...when he gets better, I'll take him back."
If she goes back... she might meet Jialan. After so many years, she and Jialan have never seen each other again.
Just when I thought of this, the door of the clinic opened, and then a woman in purple clothes walked in holding an umbrella.
"Jia...Jia Lan???"
Charlene stood up immediately and looked at Huo Jialan, whose hair was almost completely wet. Although she was carrying an umbrella, the rain was too heavy and the wind was strong, so the umbrella might have blown off several times on the road.
"Miss Huo San..." Xia Chengtian quickly stood up and said, "Your brother is resting inside now. If you haven't eaten yet, come and have a meal together."
"Sorry, Doctor Xia. I'm worried about my second brother, so I came to take a look." Huo Jialan put away her umbrella. At this time, she also cast her eyes on Charlene. After graduating from high school, the two of them had hardly seen each other for more than ten years.
A few times later, when she got married, Charlene didn't come either.
"I'll... go see him first."
"Okay, he's in this room."
Huo Jialan walked over slowly. When she passed by Charlene, the eyes of both women were quite unnatural.
Xia Lin suddenly felt a little blocked in her heart. However, she didn't know what to say. Back then, Jialan and Rongrong were her best friends. She never expected that they would become like this now.
Jin Yuan and Nan Xiaoyu looked at Xia Lin's expressions. They also roughly knew something about the situation back then, and they didn't say much at this time.
After a while, Huo Jialan came out and said, "I'll wait here until my second brother recovers."
"Jialan," at this time, Charlene stood up and looked at Huo Jialan: "How are you lately?"
"Well... it's still... okay."
In Charlene's memory, Huo Jialan was always full of energy when she was a student, but the way she feels about herself now really doesn't give her a "fairly good" feeling. In other words, the way she feels about herself now is like
A patient with severe depression. The few times we met him in the past ten years, he has always been like this. It is obvious that Jialan has not been doing well in these years.
suddenly……
Thunder and lightning flashed past, and there was a power outage in the room!
"What's going on?" Charlene was stunned. Before she could react, she heard a "bang"!
"Jin Yuan, go check the electric switch." At this time, Charlene only heard her father's voice: "Charlene, go to the kitchen to find a candle."
"okay, I get it."
"Charlene, let me go with you." Jialan's voice came from the darkness.
"okay……"
Feeling in the dark, Charlene found the kitchen and opened the kitchen door. She rummaged through the drawers, but for a moment she couldn't remember where she put the candle.
"Jialan, you... help me look for it..."
She looked back at Jialan in the darkness and said.
So, Jialan also helped her look through the drawers.
"Candle... where is the candle..."
Charlene couldn't help but hit her head. She hadn't used a candle for so long that she didn't even remember it.
"Um... Jialan, look through the drawer over there..."
When she said this, she laughed bitterly. It was really funny. After graduation, she had not seen Rongrong and Jialan for so many years. Unexpectedly, in just two days, both girls came.
At this time, she finally found candles and matchboxes in the bottom drawer.
"Finally found it... found it, Jialan!"
Then she opened the kitchen door, returned to the front hall in the dark, and said, "I found the candle..."
After she lit the candle, Jin Yuan said to her: "I checked the switch. But there is nothing abnormal."
"Really?" She looked at Jialan aside and said, "Jialan, please sit down. Thank you just now for accompanying me to find candles."
She felt bitter when she said this, after all...now she and Jialan have actually reached the point where they need to say "thank you".
"You don't need to say thank you...and it was dark just now, so I didn't follow you and ended up going to the toilet..."
For a moment, the room was silent.
"You said you...didn't go to the kitchen with me?" Charlene looked around in surprise and asked, "Who went to the kitchen with me just now?"
However, everyone shook their heads.
So... the person who was in the kitchen with her just now...
