Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly, a hint of pride in her expression. "See? See? It shows your luck is with me." She finished by making a funny face.
"Indeed," Zhang Haifeng said. "I feel like this little doctor of yours is turning into a little lucky star." He noticed that Yan Aohan’s skill at flattering people was definitely higher than his own. Hearing such words made anyone feel comfortable.
Zhu Yanyi giggled and shook her head. "I am the lucky star, so you should all flatter me more." She knew Yan Aohan was flattering her, but she didn’t filed it away without dwelling to her head. She just allowed herself a moment of slight pride.
Zhang Haifeng didn’t know what to say. He couldn’t offend either of them, so he pretended to be deaf.
A smile flashed in Yan Aohan’s eyes. "By the way, Ani, I heard you are going home tomorrow?"
"Yes," Zhu Yanyi nodded. "We are building a new house. Groundbreaking is tomorrow. Grandpa said I should come watch. My masters also said I should go back to relax. Do you want to come?"
"May I? Will it disturb your family?" Yan Aohan asked. Going out for a walk sounded nice. She also wanted to see where Zhu Yanyi lived, curious about what environment created such a little genius.
Zhu Yanyi nodded. "My dad and mom are very nice people. They haven’t studied much, but they are very warm-hearted. If they knew you were sick and became my first patient for practice, they would be even more welcoming. There’s no help for it; since I haven’t studied long, they will surely think you suffered." Although Zhu Yanyi believed she could treat Yan Aohan perfectly now, she couldn’t reveal all her secrets because she had studied medicine for such a short time. So, even if her parents suspected, she could only accept it with a smile.
Yan Aohan nodded. After staying here for a few days, he had a general idea of the locals' personalities. Perhaps due to limited horizons, some people might haggle over small things, but generally, they were generous, especially regarding public matters. However, within their own homes, everyone had their own plans. This was another form of looking out for oneself.
Since Yan Aohan and Zhang Haifeng were accompanying her, the elders did not see Zhu Yanyi off. Xie Zhong didn’t know she was coming. When Zhu Yanyi arrived at the Xie house, Xie Zhong realized her granddaughter had returned without warning. "You came back without saying anything. I should have gone to pick you up."
"Didn’t you, Grandpa, tell me to come back? For the groundbreaking. After that, I’ll stay at Grandpa Yao’s place," Zhu Yanyi answered seriously.
Xie Zhong rubbed Zhu Yanyi’s head and looked at Yan Aohan. "My Ani is young. Please bear with her if she makes mistakes."
Her meaning was clear: if there were any issues with the medical treatment, do not blame her. She was so young to be treating her; she should show understanding.
Yan Aohan understood naturally and nodded. "I know. Moreover, Ani’s medical skills are very good. Over the past few days, my symptoms have eased significantly. Since Ani is going home, I just wanted to join the fun and take a look."
Xie Zhong understood. Staying in one place all the time could indeed be boring. He said, "Just in time. Our whole family is going soon. You can come with us."
