Chen Mo took off his coat and put it aside.

Then, he pulled his gray sweater up a bit, revealing his arms.

Liu Yue carefully poked at it with her hand before pulling out a silver needle.

"Don't move!" Liu Yue said.

Chen Mo turned his head away, refusing to look at the location of the silver needles.

But the pain he expected never came, and he couldn't help but look down at the silver needles.

The old doctor placed one hand on Liu Yue's wrist, but Liu Yue couldn't insert the needle into the correct spot.

Before Chen Mo could speak, Liu Yue said, "Second Uncle, this isn't the right spot?"

The old doctor blinked in confusion: "You're really going to give me acupuncture?"

"What else?" Liu Yue and Chen Mo both looked at the old doctor.

"Stab me, stab me!"

"Let's stick two needles into your face first; it'll look uncomfortable," the old doctor said.

"Listen to your uncle, come on, stab it in the face..." Chen Mo said with a smile.

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly hissed as Liu Yue inserted a silver needle steadily into the corresponding spot.

The old doctor didn't seem to care; he continued reading his novel, only occasionally stealing a glance at Chen Mo.

With each glance, I sighed in my heart.

A few breaths!

Chen Mo's arm was covered in needles.

Liu Yue clapped her hands: "Done!"

"Second Uncle, how's it going?"

The old doctor, without even looking up, said, "The patient didn't cry, that's excellent!"

"Second Uncle, you haven't even read it!" Liu Yue snatched the novel from the old doctor's hand.

The old doctor looked directly at Chen Mo: "What do you think?"

"The doctor seemed a bit rusty; he appeared somewhat nervous when he inserted the needle!"

Liu Yue shook her head and gave a slightly embarrassed smile.

The old doctor looked even more troubled. He leaned back in his chair and tapped the table with his hand: "Young man, do you know what this table is made of?"

"Hmm?" Chen Mo looked up.

"Elm wood!" the old doctor said.

Liu Yue asked curiously, "Second Uncle, is this made of elm wood, not poplar?"

"Oh, I forgot, this chair of mine is also made of elm wood!" the old doctor exclaimed.

Liu Yue and Chen Mo exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with confusion.

"Second Uncle, check on the needle first, stop thinking about this stupid novel!" Liu Yue shook the novel.

"Pull it out!"

"No problem!" The old doctor glanced at it and then looked away.

"Second Uncle, why are you still watching The Legend of the Condor Heroes?" Liu Yue asked.

"Didn't I already give you the Condor Heroes couple?"

"Good books should be read several times. You didn't even finish reading The Return of the Condor Heroes!" the old doctor said.

"You haven't finished watching it yet?" Chen Mo interjected.

"No!" Liu Yue lowered her head to remove the needle without even looking up.

"You read very carefully!" Chen Mo said.

"Second Uncle, that's right!" Liu Yue suddenly looked up.

"Ouch!"

When I pulled out the needle, I used too much force, and blood started to bleed from the injection site.

Liu Yue immediately stuck out a finger and pressed it on.

"What's wrong?" the old doctor asked, turning his head.

"No, I said I didn't want to watch the rest. Chen Mo, you've finished watching, right?" Liu Yue looked at Chen Mo with a smile.

Chen Mo nodded: "I've seen it before!"

"I have a great idea!" Liu Yue withdrew her finger, and Chen Mo hurriedly pressed it himself.

"What a great idea?" The old doctor and Chen Mo looked at Liu Yue together.

"Chen Mo, from now on, write me a letter every week and tell me about the next chapter or two."

"That way, I can finish reading it slowly!" Liu Yue blinked at Chen Mo and took out the second volume of The Return of the Condor Heroes from the side.

Chen Mo slowly shook his head. There were so many things going on lately, running a factory and having to scheme against people. He really didn't have time to spare.

Even if he could free his hands, he wouldn't want to do it!

His handwriting is so bad it could give Sun Dengke a real headache!

He was just about to speak.

"Snapped!"

The old doctor opened a drawer, took out five yuan, and placed it heavily on the table.

"Chen Mo, this is the postage and paper cost. One letter a week should be enough for a while!"

Chen Mo glanced at the five coins without realizing it, and quickly said, "I...I...my handwriting is terrible!"

"It's okay! I can understand it." Liu Yue shook her head, her braid swaying slightly.

Chen Mo didn't reach for the money: "I still have the postage, Uncle, this..."

The old doctor reached out and grabbed Chen Mo's arm.

Those hands felt like they were made of iron, and Chen Mo felt like he was about to be lifted up.

Without saying a word, he stuffed five yuan into Chen Mo's hand.

"Take it, consider it a small gift!"

Liu Yue turned her head: "Uncle, I need a gift for our first meeting."

The old doctor chuckled and opened the drawer again: "Yes, how could Xiaoyue's not included?"

Liu Yue's eyes were really big as she watched the old doctor take out a medical book.

She reacted quickly, pulling Chen Mo up with her arm: "Uncle, Chen Mo's mother is still waiting outside. We can't keep her waiting too long!"

"What's wrong?"

"My liver isn't feeling well; I just saw an internist!"

"Oh!" The old doctor paused, then said, "Then you can go."

"Okay!" Liu Yue said, winking at Chen Mo.

Chen Mo grabbed his coat.

Watching the two leave the consultation room, the old doctor slowly put away his silver needles and then sighed.

Li Guihua showed no impatience whatsoever while sitting on the bench outside.

He stays at home all year round, and from time to time he gets so sick that he can't even leave the house.

Even just visiting patients in the hospital now is much better than it was back then.

Moreover, hospitals are places where you can see the full spectrum of human nature.

There are even several ways to soothe a crying child.

Some would raise their hands to hit, while others would hold the child in their arms.

Li Guihua couldn't help but think of Chen Fen, Chen Mo, and the good-for-nothing Chen Gang.

However, a dull ache in her abdomen made her look distressed.

She had long sensed that this illness was not ordinary; how could someone take medicine for half a year without experiencing any relief?

The thought of not being able to see Chen Fen and the others grow up brought tears to her eyes.

"Mom, are you getting impatient?" Chen Mo greeted from afar.

Upon seeing Chen Mo and Liu Yue approaching, Li Guihua hurriedly wiped her eyes, saying, "It's nothing, it's nothing!"

Liu Yue glanced at Li Guihua and shook her head. "Auntie, is your stomach upset?"

"No!" Li Guihua said, "I just saw some children, they were so pitiful!"

Liu Yue stopped smiling and nudged the puzzled Chen Mo beside her: "Auntie, your liver disease is very serious, but it's not incurable."

"If you take your medication on time and have your follow-up checkups on time, there will definitely be no problem."

"Also, it's essential to keep a cheerful mood; that's more effective than medicine!"

"right!"

Chen Mo realized what was happening and said, "Mom, don't worry, the doctor said it can be cured."

Why worry about nothing?

Li Guihua did not answer; she wiped her eyes again.

Liu Yue helped her to her feet: "Come on, I'm off work. Let Chen Mo treat us to roasted sweet potatoes!"

Li Guihua smiled and said, "Let's go, second brother."

Chen Mo consciously grabbed the medicine from the bench and followed the two towards the hospital entrance.

"Liu Yue, aren't you tired after your night shift...?"

Chen Mo had just spoken.

Suddenly, the hospital doors were kicked open, and ambulance sirens blared.

The transport vehicle floated through the gate, and several medical staff pushed it at high speed.

"Get out of the way!"

"Get out of the way!"

"doctor!"

Liu Yue suddenly stopped, turned around, and took a mask out of her pocket.

"You two eat first!"

She hurriedly chased after the transfer vehicle.

"Doctor, doctor."

Someone is crying out.

Chen Mo slowly turned his head, and for some reason, he felt that the voice sounded somewhat familiar.
