Chapter 146: Take It Off for Me
“Junior Brother, not bad at all! You’re so young and already driving such a good car!”
In the car, Senior Brother Pan Limin looked around and couldn’t help but laugh. Although he was no longer young, he could still tell that this car wasn’t cheap. At this moment, his impression of his junior brother’s family background rose another level.
After all, Lin Mo hadn’t even graduated yet, and he could already drive such a car—it definitely meant his family wasn’t short on money.
Of course, in today’s society, families with medical students generally didn’t have poor conditions. After all, studying medicine meant that the student basically couldn’t make much money before the age of thirty and needed support from home.
“Hey, it’s a friend’s car. I just borrowed it for a couple of days. I can’t afford this,” Lin Mo said with a smile.
Although he was currently holding over seven million in his account, after deducting the four and a half million he was about to return to the Rushuang Empress and Miss Yuan, he’d have less than three million left. That was indeed quite a bit of money, but not enough for him to casually buy a car worth several hundred thousand.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t buy it—he just thought it unnecessary. There were still many places where he would need money in the future. What if he drew another investment-related item next time? That money would be his capital for earning more.
“By the way, Senior Brother, what exactly are we going to this place for?” Lin Mo asked, glancing at the destination on his phone’s navigation.
Just now, Pan Limin had pulled him away without explanation, and he still hadn’t had time to clarify.
Fortunately, there were three of them this time. Once the medicine was ready, Wang Chu and the others could take it back to school first, saving Lin Mo another trip.
Hearing that, Pan Limin shook his head. “The teacher didn’t say specifically. He just told me to bring you along. But what else could it be? Most likely, it’s to treat someone.
If he’s calling both of us over, then it must involve massage assistance. Seems like the patient this time isn’t ordinary at all.”
Given his age and experience, Pan Limin’s guess after receiving the teacher’s call wasn’t far off.
After all, for someone to have their teacher make a house call, their identity couldn’t be simple.
“Massage assistance? But I’m not a doctor. Does that mean I’ll need to take part too?” Lin Mo asked curiously.
He did know massage—and was quite skilled—but he wasn’t a doctor. Those who had experienced his technique were all acquaintances. He had never treated strangers before.
Of course, the main issue was his lack of a medical license. If he massaged a stranger and something went wrong, what would he do then?
Seeing his worried expression, Pan Limin laughed. “Don’t worry. Since the teacher asked you to come, he must have his reasons. Besides, I’ll be there too. Maybe he just wants you to gain some experience and learn a bit. Relax.”
Hearing that, Lin Mo nodded. That made sense. Senior Brother Pan was the Director of the Rehabilitation Department and specialized in massage. Even if assistance was needed, it didn’t necessarily mean Lin Mo had to do it himself—otherwise, why would Senior Brother come?
With that thought, Lin Mo relaxed considerably. The two chatted as they drove toward their destination.
On the way, Pan Limin asked in detail about the incident where Lin Mo used an excavator to rescue someone. After all, it was the first time their teacher—a traditional Chinese medicine doctor—had a student capable of operating heavy machinery. Anyone who heard that would be curious.
Now, when their teacher met peers in the future, he could brag a little—
“You say your student works at a certain hospital? Published a few papers? Big deal. My student can drive an excavator—and save people. How about that?”
If Lin Mo hadn’t saved someone, it might’ve made Professor Li lose face in academic circles. But since he did save a life, it brought glory to their school instead.
Soon, the two arrived at their destination according to the navigation.
“This place has some history!” Pan Limin said as he stepped out of the car, looking around.
Hearing that, Lin Mo was a bit puzzled. He looked around but didn’t notice anything special. The residential compound was quite old; most buildings were only three or four stories tall, and the facilities inside clearly had years of wear.
The only upside was that the greenery was decent, the spacing between buildings was wide, and the location was excellent—with buses, subways, hospitals, and all other amenities nearby.
“What kind of history?” Lin Mo asked.
“This place used to have armed guards stationed at the entrance. It’s only in recent years that they were removed. Many residents here were once government officials or leaders. You’re too young to know, but I’d say my guess is spot on—our teacher’s patient today is probably a retired leader.” Pan Limin explained as he led Lin Mo inside.
At Yuan Meng’s grandmother’s house, in the living room, Professor Li glanced at the message on his phone, set down his teacup, and smiled. “Old Leader, my two students have arrived. I’ll go greet them!”
“Doctor Li, I’ll go instead. You stay here,” Jiang Jianguo said, getting up and heading out after a brief word.
“Doctor Li, I’ll trouble you to take good care of my father. It’s my fault—something happened a few days ago that upset him. Whatever you need, please just say so. We’ll fully cooperate,” Mrs. Jiang added.
Her father’s health had worsened due to agitation over the past few days, and she felt deeply guilty. After all, she was old enough to know better, yet she still made her father worry. If she’d known, she would’ve just swallowed her anger.
“What does it have to do with you? It’s that second brother of yours causing trouble. Look at me now—has he come to see me even once? Only your elder brother and you have been taking care of things.
Don’t worry, I’m this old already. What’s left to be upset about? Just live your life well and don’t bother with your second brother,” the old man said unhappily.
Just then, Miss Yuan came out carrying a bowl of freshly boiled medicine. “Grandpa, the medicine’s ready! You should drink it soon. Grandma and I cooked it together. After drinking it, you’ll definitely sleep well tonight, hehe!”
Placing the bowl in front of him, she held her grandfather’s hand and acted coy.
“Good, good, my little darling is the sweetest. You still care about your grandpa,” the old man chuckled, patting her head affectionately.
He doted on his little granddaughter. Not only was she cute and well-behaved, but she also knew how to make him happy and often came to visit him. Naturally, he adored her.
Of course, if only the old man knew about Miss Yuan’s “other” face outside—he might not be smiling right now.
At that moment, Jiang Jianguo returned, leading two people in white coats. “Dad, Doctor Li’s two students are here.”
He stepped aside to let them in.
The moment Lin Mo saw his teacher, before he could even greet him, two voices came from the living room—
“Eh? Isn’t that Little Lin?”
“Why the hell are you wearing that damn white coat? Take it off for me!”
