Chapter 93: You Have Already Chosen the Path to Death
After Sichuan Girl found a place and moved out, three days passed in a flash. The dormitory was left with just him and Wang Chu. Although it was only one person less, it was indeed much quieter, though it also felt less lively than before.
During these three days, the items he purchased were: a bottle of Moutai, a case of self-heating hotpot, and secondary development.
That’s right, the one now standing before you was Lin · 179.3 · Mo. He had taken another step closer to his 1.8-meter goal. Unfortunately, he didn’t unlock Latin dance.
Height was certainly important, but compared to the weapon he wielded on the battlefield, its significance was clearly on a different level.
As for the Moutai and self-heating hotpot, well, those were just the best of the worst. He couldn’t possibly choose something like canned herring, right? That thing was comparable to a modern poison gas bomb.
On the contrary, the Zhenshiming Eye Drops were actually useful. Although he didn’t wear glasses, nowadays young people hardly ever left their phones—how many weren’t nearsighted? The only difference was in the degree.
Lin Mo was the same. His eyesight was around two hundred degrees; things appeared blurry. Back in high school, his family told him to get glasses, but he thought they didn’t look good and he couldn’t get used to them, so he refused.
When he got to university, it seemed even less necessary. He muddled through a few years, his degree of myopia increasing, but since it didn’t affect his life, he didn’t pay much attention to it.
Since using the eye drops, in just three short days, he clearly noticed his vision improving. Things looked much sharper now. Though still somewhat nearsighted, it was definitely not the same as before when it was around two hundred degrees.
Although the probability of drawing good items wasn’t very high, at least the frequency was decent—once a day. He believed there would come a day when he would soar.
In these few days, the old granny hadn’t appeared either, most likely having gone home. Training alone took some getting used to.
Meanwhile, ever since Sichuan Girl moved out, she often livestreamed until late at night, trying to make money.
Perhaps after attending a comic convention with Miss Yuan, she had experienced the cruelty of society firsthand, realizing what people meant when they said, “money is hard to earn and shit is hard to swallow!”
He didn’t know the details, but that day after she came back in a revealing Mai Shiranui outfit without saying a word, she simply extended her streaming hours.
Later he heard from Miss Yuan that it was because the outfit was too revealing, attracting a crowd of boys. Regardless, her “experience” had been quite intense.
In these past few days, Sichuan Girl had nearly spent all her savings. Not only did she update her streaming equipment, she also bought a batch of new clothes. She even sold her old ones on Zhuanzhuan just to make up some losses.
Meanwhile, Wang Chu went over whenever he had free time, leaving Lin Mo with peace and quiet. Occasionally, he even saw Wang Chu’s masked figure appear in her livestreams or videos.
Of course, he hadn’t been idle either. These past two days, he had been in the library, diligently studying the last volume of Massage and Bone Setting.
Sure enough, after waiting several days without seeing Lin Mo come to the hospital for medicine, Professor Li sent him a message.
Lin Mo had just finished the last volume and was standing outside the library when he took the call.
“Professor Li, I’ve been a bit busy these past couple of days and haven’t had the time. Sorry to trouble you!” Lin Mo thanked him sincerely.
Recently, he had not only been reading, but also accompanying Sichuan Girl to the mall, helping her update her equipment, and buying daily necessities. After all, a new place still needed some setting up.
“No matter how busy you are, you must take care of your health. How about this: I happen to be at the hospital today. You come over, pick up the medicine, and I’ll make sure they prepare higher-quality herbs for you.”
Professor Li’s hearty voice came through the phone; one could tell he was in a good mood.
Hearing this, Lin Mo thought about it and felt he really should go, so he agreed, “Alright, Professor Li, I’ll tidy up and head over right away.”
“Good, don’t delay—I’ll be waiting for you.”
After hanging up, Lin Mo checked the time. It was already lunchtime. Looked like he wasn’t getting food today.
He immediately headed to Chengyue Community through the back entrance. Miss Yuan hadn’t only solved Sichuan Girl’s rental problem, she had also found him a parking space, so he no longer had to leave his car on the street.
Meanwhile, at the hospital, Professor Li slammed down the phone and furiously scolded a young man in a white coat: “Look at the state you’re in! With your pathetic acupuncture skills, you still dare stick needles into patients? You can’t even read pulses properly, you can’t prescribe medicine properly—tell me, what the hell is an oral laxative prescription?
When the head nurse scolds you, your thick skin is fine. But me? Today Nurse Zhang came to complain, hinting that what I taught must be garbage. Get out! Get lost and go write your medical records. Before you finish work tonight, I want to see all your records from the past week. Do you hear me?!”
The scolded Doctor Xiao Fan didn’t dare say a word and quickly slipped away.
“Teacher, please calm down. Xiao Fan is just a beginner. Making mistakes is normal. Haven’t we all been through this stage?”
At this moment, a middle-aged man in his forties, also in a white coat, spoke up. He was the director of the Rehabilitation Department, specializing in massage and bone setting.
“Enough. Stop trying to play peacemaker every time. Instead of smoothing things over, you’d better improve your own skills. One of my students is just a senior in university, and his massage and bone setting skills are already on par with yours.” Professor Li was clearly fuming, lashing out at anyone who crossed his path.
Did you think the only one who got scolded when an intern messed up was the intern? No, the scolding went from top to bottom—no one was spared.
“Teacher, even if junior brother studies well, surely you’re exaggerating?” The middle-aged man clearly didn’t believe him.
Professor Li let out a cold snort: “I’ve already called him here. You’ll see for yourself soon enough!”
At Chengyue Community, Lin Mo had just arrived downstairs when he saw Miss Yuan directing a group of workers moving furniture.
“Miss Yuan, what’s going on here?” Lin Mo walked over and asked.
Yuan Meng was stunned for a moment, then upon seeing it was him, she smiled: “Yesterday the esports room setup was finally completed. I bought computers, a mahjong table, and a billiard table. Come, let me show you my hard work from the past two days!”
With that, Yuan Meng was about to pull him upstairs. Seeing this, Lin Mo quickly waved his hands: “No, Miss Yuan, I have to go to the Chinese medicine hospital.”
“Hospital? Are you sick?” Yuan Meng asked.
Lin Mo shook his head and briefly explained what happened when Professor Li had taken his pulse.
“Qi deficiency, spleen deficiency? You’re sure it’s just those two? I don’t believe it!” Yuan Meng said, her face full of suspicion.
“Of course. I’m just going to regulate my health!” Lin Mo concealed not only kidney deficiency, but also his guilty conscience.
“Bah! Do you really think I don’t understand at all? As the saying goes, out of ten men, nine are deficient. And with qi deficiency and spleen deficiency, kidney deficiency usually comes along as well. Mo, you’re impressive~” Yuan Meng narrowed her eyes and smiled knowingly, her expression saying ‘I know everything’.
Lin Mo indignantly retorted: “Impossible, absolutely impossible. With my body, there’s no way I have kidney deficiency. If you don’t believe me, tonight we’ll go get a foot massage. I’ll show you what it means to have an indestructible kidney!”
Hearing this, Yuan Meng gave him a disdainful look and said, “Why make it so troublesome? Just give me your phone!”
Lin Mo was puzzled but handed it over anyway.
Yuan Meng took the phone, fiddled around casually, and then asked, “Hey, where’s your browser?”
Lin Mo: (°—°〃)
In an instant, Lin Mo felt a chill rush straight to his head, his heartbeat quickening.
One must know, a woman’s chats with her best friend and a man’s browser history—those could never be shown to anyone! Even if he was hit by a car, he’d have to crawl up to clear it before lying down. He immediately roared:
“You have already chosen the path to death!”
Yuan Meng: “Look at you, getting anxious!”
