My daily work as a doctor: My treatment value is increasing.

Although they left together, Wang Mengrui, who was slightly slower than the two of them, was carrying a tray. After looking around, she spotted the two of them in the crowded cafeteria.

She hurriedly carried her tray to the empty seat next to the two of them and sat down next to Shen Yueru.

The two of them looked at her plate at the same time: it contained corn stir-fried with grapes and peach stir-fried with meat.

Shen Yueru asked curiously, "You bought both dishes?"

"Yeah, isn't this a special feature that they strongly recommend? I was thinking of buying some to try," Wang Mengrui replied casually, picking up her chopsticks.

"Although everyone is recommending it, I'm still very conflicted after seeing these two innovative dishes in our cafeteria. Can stir-fried fruit really taste good?"

After being recommended it by everyone, Wang Mengrui felt she should give it a try. However, when she actually saw the presentation, she hesitated and held her chopsticks in mid-air for a long time.

Lu Renxin and Shen Yueru exchanged a knowing glance and advised, "You've already bought it, why don't you give it a try?"

"We just had a bite, and we think it's pretty good."

They finally understood the thinking of the senior students who were recommending this food everywhere: after being scammed themselves, they naturally wanted to make others fall into the same trap.

"It's delicious. Don't be fooled by its unappealing appearance and bizarre name; it actually tastes really good."

"Especially the corn stir-fried with grapes, it's a unique and innovative dish in the restaurant."

"Really?" After receiving affirmative answers from both of them, Wang Mengrui looked at the corn and grape stir-fry again, still puzzled.

Then, without any suspicion, she picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth: "Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey! You're lying to me, what does this taste like?"

She pretended to be angry and smiled at the two of them, saying, "Fine, you two teamed up to fool me."

The three of them burst into laughter, and Lu Renxin thought to himself that this little girl seemed to be a really nice person.

He felt much more relaxed, but he still hoped that Shen Yueru could have a close friend to accompany her during her postgraduate studies.

After finishing their meal, Lu Renxin escorted Shen Yueru to her dormitory building: "Alright, that's all for now. You can go up by yourself. I have to go back."

"Okay." Although she knew rationally that it was time for them to part ways, she was still reluctant to part emotionally. After they separated today, they would only be able to see each other once a week or even once every few weeks.

Shen Yueru turned and went into the dormitory, but Lu Renxin did not turn around and leave immediately. Instead, he stood quietly.

She stood on the balcony, waving to him from afar, even after she had arrived at her dormitory.

"Go back inside, it's hot outside," he shouted.

"Drive carefully on your way back! Message me when you get there!" Shen Yueru responded loudly, her voice tinged with a barely perceptible sob.

……

After arriving home, Lu Renxin immediately took out his phone to report to Shen Yueru.

He couldn't easily check his phone while driving, so he didn't check his messages the whole way.

At the very top of the list, there were several messages from Shen Yueru, all asking if he had arrived home yet. Lu Renxin quickly replied to reassure her.

But there's another message from Wang Mengrui below:

[Senior, are you home yet?]

Lu Renxin found it strange that she would ask me what I was doing when I got home.

But then I thought, maybe she was just concerned, or maybe she had something to ask me and wanted to know if I got home yet.

That makes sense, so Lu Renxin replied: 【Just got home, is there something you need?】

Wang Mengrui immediately replied: 【It's nothing, I was just checking in on you, senior. It was nice to meet you today.】

[Tongue-out emoji.jpg]

Lu Renxin: ...Something feels off.

So, aware that he had a girlfriend, he simply ignored her, turned off his phone, and stopped replying.

……

"Dr. Lu, I'm here again." The old man was carrying large bags and small packages wrapped in plastic bags. He didn't have the hands to open the door, so he had to use his elbow to push it open.

Seeing how distressed he was, Lu Renxin hurriedly got up from his seat and took the things from the old man's hands:

"Oh, sir, why did you bring so much stuff to your doctor's visit? Isn't it a hassle?" He put the bag in a corner where it wouldn't get in the way and asked casually.

"Dr. Lu, these are all for you." The old man sat on the stool, his hands on his knees, trying to calm his disordered breathing.

"Me? You brought this for me?" Lu Renxin pointed to himself with his index finger, his face full of disbelief.

"Yes, thank you so much. I've been taking the Chinese medicine you prescribed for a while now, and although I'm not completely normal yet, I'm much better than before."

The old man said with a smile, his wrinkles full of happiness, the comfort of a smooth bowel movement.

"It's my duty to cure your illness. You don't need to send me anything; I will continue to treat you well." Although Lu Renxin was happy to receive the patient's affirmation, he did not intend to accept it and declined.

The old man, who had recovered, quickly stood up, slowly walked to the wall, squatted down, and untied the knot in the plastic bag, saying:

"Don't be shy, Dr. Lu. These are just some cheap things, please don't look down on them."

He first took out the first red plastic bag, held it up with both hands to show Lu Renxin: "These are the bok choy I grew myself, look how fresh they are."

Next was a white bag printed with the words "Convenience Supermarket," inside which was a large mineral water bottle containing several round, clean-shelled eggs.

Then came the third and the fourth.

After the old man showed Lu Renxin everything, he stared at him and said, "I grew all of these myself, without using any pesticides. They're all organic."

Lu Renxin saw nothing but sincerity in the old man's slightly cloudy eyes.

He knew that constipation was very painful for patients, and he had only solved the problem slightly, but the old man still offered the best he could.

These vegetables, these eggs, these corn... are all expressions of the old man's affirmation and support for him.

Lu Renxin felt an overwhelming surge of passion within him. He was determined to do his best in medicine and his future career, and to alleviate the suffering of more patients!

After repeatedly declining without success, he finally couldn't resist the old man's enthusiasm and left a large amount of food.

Then the formal consultation began. A week had passed since the patient's last prescription, and this week a new prescription would be written based on his tongue coating and pulse.

Without much adjustment, Lu Renxin quickly determined the ingredients that needed to be changed and wrote out a prescription on the computer that mainly focused on moisturizing the intestines, relieving constipation, regulating qi, and promoting bowel movement.

He still carefully reminded the elderly man to take the medicine on time: "Just take one week's worth this week, and if possible next week, I'll prescribe two weeks' worth. You won't have to keep going to the hospital; it's too much trouble!"

"Dr. Lu, thank you so much!" The old man excitedly grasped Lu Renxin's hand, his voice filled with undisguised joy.

After he left shakily, only Lu Renxin remained deep in thought:

In the future, I will definitely use the knowledge I have learned to continue to bring health and hope to more patients suffering from illness.
