Love That Extends Life

Chapter 278: Little Nurse Qu Xiaoyi's Concern

The TCM clinic, which was once deserted, now has long queues of patients waiting to register every day. All these changes are due to a series of important achievements made by Chu Yunhao in the field of TCM research. His TCM research projects have been widely recognized, which not only enhanced the reputation of the 203rd Military Hospital, but also attracted more people to pay attention to TCM. With his efforts, the TCM clinic has gradually become a major feature of the 203rd Military Hospital and is favored by patients in China.

At this time, the other female nurses also noticed the situation here and cast envious and jealous glances at Qu Xiaoyi.

"Sister Meiling, that nurse Qu Xiaoyi is so shameless, she is really a little vixen." Nurse Xiaoting touched the nurse next to her with her arm, and she began to say dirty words out of jealousy.

"This Qu Xiaoyi is working in the least prosperous TCM department. She is so desperate to change her job that she just greets the military doctor when she sees him. How can she still have the dignity to do that?"

"That's right. She's the youngest among the dozen or so nurses in the TCM department. Those older nurses are there to retire, and she probably won't be able to make it."

"This Qu Xiaoyi actually knows how to act and sit opposite that handsome officer. She uses all kinds of despicable tricks. It's really embarrassing for us nurses."

"This young nurse from outside the city is quite shrewd. People in her dormitory said she is still learning Chinese medicine massage techniques on her own and seems to be taking the self-study exam to get a bachelor's degree. So when she saw the military doctor, she wanted to learn from him. It seems that she likes to interact with military doctors."

"Xiaoting, I actually envy Qu Xiaoyi's personality. She dares to do things and is unrestrained, unlike us who are hypocritical..."

"Okay, stop talking. Let's see what Qu Xiaoyi wants to do." Nurse Meiling stopped the nurse next to her from talking, and then looked quietly in the direction to the side.

At this time, an old nurse from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department came with a tray and saw that the tables in the cafeteria were full of people. However, she noticed that there was an empty seat where Qu Xiaoyi was sitting, so she sat down.

"Sister Rong, why did you come here just now?" Qu Xiaoyi saw Lv Lirong and greeted her and asked.

"It was very hot this day. Lu Shuzhen and I were sitting in the pharmacy chatting. We spent a lot of time chatting." As Lu Lirong was talking, she saw Chu Yunhao sitting opposite Qu Xiaoyi. She looked at Qu Xiaoyi with a puzzled look. "Xiaoyi, is he... someone you know?"

"Ah, Sister Rong, I just met him too." Qu Xiaoyi said to Lv Lirong with a smile, "My hands were burned by the plate I was holding just now, and then I accidentally slipped and stumbled, so I sat here."

Lu Lirong nodded. She saw that Chu Yunhao was a handsome man, and then looked at Qu Xiaoyi, and she smiled knowingly.

Song Zhixuan, who was talking to Li Xiaofeng, was suddenly tapped on the shoulder by a nurse. Then she looked in the direction of the nurse's finger and found that there was a young nurse sitting opposite Chu Yunhao. It turned out to be Qu Xiaoyi from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department.

"Secretary Li, you'd better go back quickly, otherwise your seat will be taken soon." Song Zhixuan released her hand that was holding Li Xiaofeng's arm, and then spoke to Li Xiaofeng.

Li Xiaofeng also saw what happened just now. He quickly stood up and returned to his seat, while also smiling politely at Chu Yunhao.

"Haha, they came to discuss something with me, and we finally finished the discussion."

When Lv Lirong saw Li Xiaofeng, her eyes lit up. "Ah, Director Li, I'm glad to see you. When will the nurse duty room of our TCM department be equipped with air conditioners? It's so hot, it can kill people." She complained and stared at Li Xiaofeng.

Lu Lirong's eyes made Li Xiaofeng unable to eat, but Li Xiaofeng was also a smart person.

"Sister Lu, I know the weather is hot, but it's not up to me to decide whether to install air conditioners. Director Liang of your department needs to apply to Section Chief Wei of the Logistics Department, and then Section Chief Wei will ask for approval at the dean's meeting. And I am the one who is responsible for doing this, right?" Li Xiaofeng explained to Lu Lirong, and it sounded very reasonable.

"Secretary Li, I know everything you said. Director Liang of our department proposed to Chief Wei of your logistics department two months ago that we should install three air conditioners, but there has been no news until now. So, Secretary Li, please mention it when you see Chief Wei, and don't drag it out. Oh, by the way, the air conditioners in other departments have been installed, but ours hasn't. Is it because other departments are more profitable, while our Traditional Chinese Medicine Department is deserted?" Lv Lirong said as she thought, and she seemed to be so angry that she didn't go to eat.

"This..." Li Xiaofeng was a little embarrassed. He didn't want to explain these things because the reason was just as Lv Lirong said. "Sister Lv, I'm just a small clerk. How can I be so capable of participating in the affairs of the leaders? Why don't you ask your Director Liang to talk to Section Chief Wei? The matter still needs to be resolved by the leaders. Sister Lv, it's time to eat, let's eat!"

Seeing this, Lv Lirong realized that Li Xiaofeng was trying to shirk responsibility, and she felt a little unhappy, but she couldn't say anything else. She glared at Li Xiaofeng fiercely, and then started to eat lunch.

After a while, Chu Yunhao finished his lunch and sat waiting for Li Xiaofeng to eat.

Li Xiaofeng ate a few mouthfuls of food in a hurry. He noticed Lu Lirong's cold eyes, so he just smiled at Chu Yunhao. "Haha, I'm full too. Let's take the dishes to the cleaning room and then go out for a walk."

After Chu Yunhao and Li Xiaofeng left the table with their plates, Qu Xiaoyi saw the strange looks from the people around her, so she also put her chopsticks back on the plate.

"Sister Rong, I'm full. I'll go back first." Qu Xiaoyi turned and said to Lu Lirong beside her.

At this time, Lu Lirong found that many people were looking at them. She felt unhappy, so she threw the chopsticks into the plate.

"Xiao Qu, I won't eat either. Let's go back together."

Just like that, Qu Xiaoyi and Lu Lirong took their plates and left the table.

As Chu Yunhao, Li Xiaofeng, Qu Xiaoyi and Lu Lirong left the cafeteria, the nurses in the cafeteria began to talk.

Some nurses found Song Zhixuan to inquire about the news, because they were all curious about who the new officer was and which department he was from. People in the cafeteria saw the conversation between Song Zhixuan and Li Xiaofeng, so they had to find Song Zhixuan to find out the situation.

Qu Xiaoyi came out of the cafeteria. When she saw Chu Yunhao's departing back, she sighed secretly.

If Li Xiaofeng had not accompanied Chu Yunhao at this time, or if Lu Lirong had not followed her, Qu Xiaoyi really wanted to talk to Chu Yunhao.

"He is the director of the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine at such a young age. He must be very knowledgeable. When I have the chance, I will definitely learn from him." Qu Xiaoyi muttered to himself.

At this time, Qu Xiaoyi was thoughtful, and she was secretly planning to find an opportunity to get close to the director of the institute when she had time. However, when she thought of the handsome director talking to her and his brilliant smile, her heart was touched unconsciously.
