Chapter 163 Medical University Visits
After returning home, Lu Beiting looked at Xia Zhi, who seemed bored, and walked back inside.

"What is this for?"

Lu Beiting looked at the yarn in her hand.

Xia Zhi rested her chin on her hand, looking at the yarn and knitting needles on the table. "Aunt Li gave them to me because she saw I was bored, and told me to knit a sweater."

Xia Zhi couldn't help but laugh at this.

She can't even hold a needle, let alone knit a sweater; she can't even knit from scraps of cloth.

Lu Beiting couldn't help but smile, "It's alright, it's fine if you don't wear the knitted one."

"By the way, Xiaxia, there's something I need to tell you." Lu Beiting remembered what Li Jianguo had said.

We should warn people like Chen Xinghan first, lest they run into serious problems later.

"Okay, go ahead." Xia Zhi shifted her body and looked at him earnestly.

Lu Beiting put his arm around her and told her about Chen Xinghan, omitting some of the gory scenes.

After listening, Xia Zhi began to recall the plot of the book.
She couldn't think of any information about this person, but she felt that such a person couldn't possibly have never appeared in the book.

"Tell me what he looks like, and I'll remember it."

Lu Beiting was prepared and took out the black and white photo he had obtained from Li Jianguo from his pocket.

In the photo, Chen Xinghan has a diamond-shaped face with high cheekbones and sharp lines, giving him a harsh and fierce appearance at first glance.

Lu Beiting pointed to Chen Xinghan's ears in the photo, "Protruding ears are a unique feature of Chen Xinghan."

Then, pointing to his earlobe, he said, "There are tear marks here. Be more careful when you go out in the future."

Xia Zhi looked at him in surprise, "How do you know so much detail? Could it be that the ear injury is yours?"

Lu Beiting smiled indulgently, "No, it's the commander. It's just a pity that the shot missed."

"That commander is really amazing," Xia Zhi said, carefully memorizing what he had said during the year.

……

The construction of the villagers' houses lasted for about two months, and another month and a half was spent clearing the rocks from the road. As the college entrance examination drew closer, Xia Zhi's belly became more and more obvious, and her baby fat also changed.

Every time Xia Zhi saw her face in the mirror, she couldn't help but feel anxious, and after the anxiety subsided, she would comfort herself.

Lu Beiting saw it all and felt a pang of heartache. He knew she was in pain, but he didn't know how to help her. All he could do was take even better care of her.

"Xiaxia, just bear with it a little longer, it'll be fine in a few months. Don't be sad, I'm here for you." Lu Beiting felt a pang of sadness as he watched Xia Zhi sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze again. He went over and tenderly pulled her into his arms.

Xia Zhi snapped out of her daze. She hadn't expected herself to be so sensitive. Looking at Lu Beiting, who was looking worried, she forced a smile. "Yes, I know. It's okay. You forgot, I'm a doctor."

Lu Beiting hugged her and gently patted her back. "Doctors are human too. If you feel unwell, just say so. Don't bottle it up. It will harm your health."

Xia Zhi was fine until she heard his words, and she felt inexplicably wronged. She buried her face in his chest and cried softly, "Waaah, I don't know why I'm like this, I just can't help but overthink."

"It's okay, it's okay, nothing will happen." Lu Beiting comforted her for a while, then pulled her out of his arms, wiped the tears from her face, and looked at her red cheeks, hiding the heartache in his eyes.

"Oh my, whose wife is she? She looks so beautiful even when she cries, like a ripe peach." Then he gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"Liar, she's not pretty at all." Xia Zhi pouted, but felt a little better. "What's wrong with her? Who said she's not pretty? She's obviously very pretty. If anyone dares to say my wife isn't pretty, I'll beat them to death."

Xia Zhi laughed, amused. "Okay, much better."

Lu Beiting cupped her face and kissed her cheeks repeatedly. "Okay, if anything happens, just tell me. We'll figure it out together and face it together."

"Don't you think I'm being dramatic?" She herself felt that she was being a bit dramatic. It's just pregnancy, and she hadn't seen other people act like this before...

"What's with the fuss? The little brat's been naughty. I'll teach him a lesson when he gets out." Lu Beiting patted her head and comforted her.

When Xia Zhi heard him say he was going to hit the child, she immediately snorted, "Did I go through all the trouble of giving birth just so you could hit me?"

"No, that's not what I meant, I..." Lu Beiting panicked for a moment, then slapped himself.

"Oh dear, what are you doing? I was just teasing you." Xia Zhi was startled and quickly grabbed his hand.

"Honey, I was wrong, please don't be angry."

Lu Beiting was just trying to comfort her, but when he heard what she said, he panicked. This wasn't something he was born with; he just felt sorry for her.

"it's okay no problem."

Xia Zhi never expected that she would be the one comforting Lu Beiting now.

"By the way, honey, the commander said that someone from the medical university is here and wants to talk to you. They should arrive in the next few days. Would you like to go and meet them?"

Once Lu Beiting saw that she had calmed down, he began to get down to business.

“Go.” Xia Zhi nodded without the slightest hesitation.

"Row."

A few days later, Lu Beiting took Xia Zhi to Li Jianguo's office, where they saw several unfamiliar faces as soon as they entered.

"Professor Wang, this is Comrade Xia Zhi, and Xia Zhi is Professor Wang from the Medical University."

"Hello, Professor Wang." Xia Zhi greeted him and sat down on the stool that Lu Beiting had brought.

Wang Wencong looked at Xia Zhi, who sat down in front of him, with a hint of displeasure in his eyes. What kind of attitude was this? He hadn't even sat down yet, but she had already sat down.

"Comrade Xia, right? We are from a medical university. We have heard of you and admire you very much. The president is interested in having you become a teacher at our university. What do you think, Comrade Xia?"

Wang Wencong glanced at Xia Zhi indifferently, not particularly optimistic about the young man in front of him, especially since he was a woman.

Even if he had some skills before, who knows if they were real? In his opinion, the principal was too arbitrary, listened to slander, and made such a big decision without even meeting the person.

A woman in her twenties becoming a teacher at a medical university? Isn't that a joke?

Furthermore, they had already leaked the news before, so Xia Zhi must have known about it all along. Who is she trying to impress with this act now?

Xia Zhi frowned slightly; she didn't seem to have offended these people.

Li Jianguo never expected that Wang Wencong, who was just chatting and laughing, would suddenly become so arrogant.

"Professor Wang, what are you doing? Didn't we agree on this before we came?" The teachers who came with him were also surprised by this turn of events.

Before they came, the principal repeatedly instructed them to be polite and persuade Xia Zhi to come to their school, because they were not the only school that wanted to invite this Comrade Xia.
