Sister, can I be a maid too?

There was a pause in the voice on the phone:

"For outpatient visits... You can bring your patient directly to the Lincheng People's Hospital to register. I will be in the outpatient clinic tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

Jiang Yubai explained:

"The patient is currently unable to leave the house and may need your help..."

He didn't finish his sentence, leaving it as a question mark.

There was a two-second silence on the other end of the phone:

"I see... Was this a previous patient? What was their name?"

Jiang Yubai glanced at Lin Jianxia, ​​who silently made a "two" gesture.

"It was more than two years ago, and the patient's name was Lin Tingwan."

"Lin Tingwan..." came the soft rustling of pages turning on the other end of the phone. "I have a lot of patients here, so I can't..."

“She’s the younger of the twins,” Jiang Yubai added. “The older sister’s name is Lin Jianxia.”

"Oh..." Her voice suddenly took on a tone of realization, "I remember now. The initial diagnosis was autistic tendencies, right?"

She paused, seemingly thinking:

“In principle, we do not provide home visit services... but since this is a patient we have seen before, and the situation is special.”

"How about this, I have a day off the day after tomorrow, I can go there in the afternoon. Is it convenient for you there?"

Jiang Yubai breathed a sigh of relief:

"Conveniently, our address here is..."

After the time and details were agreed upon, Dr. Su on the other end said:

"Let me clarify beforehand that I'm here in my personal capacity. If you agree, I'll charge you the market rate for psychological counseling."

“In addition,” she paused, “if I determine that medication is needed after I arrive, the family members will have to come back to the hospital with me to go through the proper procedures.”

"no problem."

Jiang Yubai readily agreed.

"Doctor, as long as you're willing to come, everything else is negotiable."

Upon hearing this, the tone on the other end seemed to soften slightly:

"Okay, I'll call you the day after tomorrow."

After giving a few more instructions, Dr. Su on the other end of the line hung up the phone.

Jiang Yubai breathed a slight sigh of relief, then turned to look at Lin Jianxia, ​​somewhat surprised:

"So this doctor works at a public hospital? I thought he was one of those private family doctors who provides one-on-one care."

"How could we afford to hire someone like that?" Lin Jianxia pouted.

"This was the outpatient doctor I took Wanwan to see at a public hospital when her condition wasn't so serious yet."

She pursed her lips and said again:

"But Dr. Su is a very good person, both gentle and responsible. She even called back to follow up..."

However, Jiang Yubai's focus was not on the doctor.

He hesitated, wanting to speak but holding back, but finally couldn't help asking:

"No, your dad... he really doesn't care at all?"

I had heard Lin Jianxia mention before that her father would send a sum of child support every month.

However, judging from the sisters' dire living conditions, that sum of money was probably pitifully small.

That was bad enough, but Jiang Yubai really didn't expect that Lin Jianxia would have to bear it all by herself when she took Lin Tingwan to see a doctor.

Two years ago... I was only in my first year of high school, right?

Upon hearing this, Lin Jianxia's eyes suddenly darkened, and her lips pressed tightly together.

Jiang Yubai immediately realized that he had asked the wrong question, and his mind went blank.

You're so foul-mouthed...

However, instead of rushing to offer words of comfort, he simply stood up as if he hadn't seen anything.

"I'm starving... I've studied and made a doctor's appointment, let's go downstairs and grab some late-night snacks."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jianxia sniffed and stood up as well:

"I...I'll treat...after all, I haven't even had dinner yet..."

"No way," Jiang Yubai refused outright. "Just recommend a good restaurant to me."

Lin Jianxia opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something more, but after a long while, she looked at his face and finally let out a soft "oh".

She turned her head and said softly:

"How was that grilled fish place before?"

"Grilled fish? Sure."

Jiang Yubai nodded readily, then suddenly seemed to remember something and said:

"By the way, should we ask... if Lin Tingwan is going?"

Chapter 86 So Miss Lin Jianxia usually reads these kinds of things?

Upon hearing this, Lin Jianxia blinked hesitantly.

"Wanwan... probably won't want to go out, right?"

"Why don't you ask her? Maybe she hasn't eaten enough either?"

Without hesitation, Jiang Yubai swiftly opened the study door.

"It has nothing to do with whether you're full or not..."

Lin Jianxia sighed softly, but still followed behind him.

Jiang Yubai arrived at the door of the next room with practiced ease and knocked three times.

Knock knock knock~

After counting a few seconds in his head, he reached out, opened the door, and stepped inside.

Lin Tingwan, dressed in her home clothes, was sitting on the edge of the bed reading when she heard the noise and looked up.

When she saw Jiang Yubai, her eyes seemed to light up.

But when her gaze fell on Lin Jianxia behind him, the girl blinked and suddenly hid the book in her hand behind her back.

Lin Jianxia: "......."

Jiang Yubai: "......."

I'm not saying this out loud... but isn't your act of hiding the books a bit too blatant?

If you're going to hide, start hiding the moment you knock on the door!

Wait.....

Jiang Yubai reacted instantly.

Lin Jianxia probably wouldn't knock like that when she enters her own room.

Without knocking—Sister—Books.

Knock on the door—Jiang Yubai—No need to hide.

Having figured this out, Jiang Yubai almost burst out laughing, pursing his lips and immediately switching into spectator mode.

Upon seeing her younger sister's actions, Lin Jianxia was momentarily stunned, then subconsciously asked:

"Wanwan, what are you holding in your hand?"

Lin Tingwan stared at her sister with innocent eyes, neither speaking nor moving, showing no intention of answering.

Seeing this, Lin Jianxia's brows slowly furrowed:

"Wanwan...can you let your older sister take a look?"

As she spoke, she walked to the edge of the bed and leaned over to see what was going on.

When Lin Jianxia leaned to the left, Lin Tingwan would turn to the right; when Lin Jianxia leaned to the right, Lin Tingwan would dodge to the left.

Because Jiang Yubai was still by her side, Lin Jianxia couldn't resort to any drastic measures.

So the two of them remained locked in a stalemate for half a minute, like playing a game of tag, without Lin Jianxia being able to touch the edge of the book.

Lin Jianxia gritted her teeth, then suddenly turned her head and glared angrily at Jiang Yubai:

"Jiang Yubai!"

Jiang Yubai was engrossed in watching the show when she was called out to, and was startled at first, but then immediately understood and nodded in agreement.

"Tell me, do you want me to massage your hands or your feet?"

Lin Jianxia was furious: "Who told you to hold my hands and feet!"

That bastard!

Are a girl's hands and feet something you can just touch casually?!

"You're not going to press it?" Jiang Yubai asked, somewhat disappointed. "Then why did you call me?"

"I'm talking about books!" Lin Jianxia glared at him.

"Didn't you say you checked all the magazines and comics? Did you... secretly slip Wanwan something weird?"

ha?

Jiang Yubai could hardly believe his ears.

He looked at Lin Jianxia in front of him, then at Lin Tingwan sitting on the bed, and slowly raised his eyebrows.

Hey Lin Jianxia, ​​you might not know what book she's holding, but I do...
