City's Best Divine Doctor-Chapter 1527 - 1526: Money Spent to Ward Off Misfortune
Ye Qiu isn’t afraid of pandemics at all. He knows that if others have problems, he won’t have any issues, as long as he has the time or feels that doing these things is meaningful.
Right now, he’s not seeking fame or fortune; he doesn’t need to do those things at all.
However, for doctors and nurses from other hospitals, going there and returning alive is definitely different.
Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu left to find Wen Xin, and Wen Xin was waiting for Ye Qiu in her office.
When she saw Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu coming over, she thought Ye Qiu was there to see a patient.
"Ye Qiu, did you finish treating the patient so quickly?"
"Not treating a patient. It’s Director Zhou asking me about the outbreak in Southwest, organizing doctors to go support, and asking if I’d participate."
Wen Xin thought Ye Qiu was treating patients but didn’t expect this.
Upon hearing it, she naturally had the same reaction as Liu Lingxiu.
"Ye Qiu, if you get infected by the pandemic, it could be very dangerous." She genuinely felt the impact of the pandemic back then, as even a family of one of her middle school classmates was infected and isolated for a long time and didn’t survive.
Now, she gets tense whenever she hears about pandemics.
"I don’t think much of it; it’s merely about whether going over there has any meaning or not."
"Of course it has meaning, as it could treat infected patients." Wen Xin quickly thought of Ye Qiu’s excellent medical skills, and indeed, it holds great significance.
Saving one life is better than building a seven-floor pagoda.
Wen Xin suddenly noticed Ye Qiu’s gaze as he said, "Wen Xin, why don’t I take you with me?"
"Me?"
Wen Xin hadn’t really considered this.
Because she didn’t know about it, but back then, it left a significant impact on her.
"Are you afraid?"
Ye Qiu asked.
"If you go, I’ll go with you,"
Wen Xin said.
Ye Qiu smiled and said, "For me, it may not mean much, but going means just treating those patients."
Actually, for Ye Qiu, although he seems to be a part of this world now, he somehow isn’t, so he feels that the unrelated people in this world are merely like ants to him.
However, for Wen Xin and others, it’s different. They themselves are people of this world, so their experience would be very different.
Moreover, Ye Qiu knows that this is equivalent to gaining distinction; for Ye Qiu, he isn’t part of this circle, so it holds no meaning. But for Wen Xin, it’s different; if she participates in the support mission in the Southwest and returns safely, it would be like gaining distinction, stabilizing her position in the Affiliated Hospital afterward.
Even without Ye Qiu, having participated in such a support mission for the pandemic, no one would dare underestimate her. That’s why Ye Qiu said it would be meaningful for her.
Wen Xin didn’t know what to say.
"How long until you finish work?"
"Not until six-thirty." It was only three in the afternoon, so still plenty of time.
"Then I’ll come to find you by then." Wen Xin still had work, so Ye Qiu didn’t stay.
Of course, Zhou Wenting also worked at the Affiliated Hospital, but it held no meaning for her since she wasn’t lacking any fame or fortune. She was merely there due to Ye Qiu’s medical skills.
However, if Zhou Wenting wants to establish herself in the Affiliated Hospital and the medical sector, then going with Ye Qiu to participate in supporting the Southwest pandemic would be meaningful.
Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu left the Affiliated Hospital, and Liu Lingxiu looked at Ye Qiu, thinking that he’d definitely participate.
Although she could see that Ye Qiu didn’t care about those things, he still stood up many times.
So, she felt that Ye Qiu had really changed a lot.
"Lingshow, where do you want to go?" Ye Qiu asked.
"Ye Qiu, you said you’re going to support the Southwest pandemic; I want to go to a temple to burn incense and pray to the Buddha for your safe return."
Ye Qiu didn’t expect Liu Lingxiu to figure it out so quickly. But burning incense and praying to the Buddha seemed pointless for him, and it was just psychological comfort for Liu Lingxiu.
Ye Qiu planned to go quietly and didn’t want to tell his parents and sister, afraid they’d worry.
"Lingshow, should I tell my parents and sister?"
"You’re afraid they’ll worry if they find out?"
"You should know better than I do."
Even though Ye Qiu had known since a long time ago that he wasn’t Ye Weidong and his wife’s biological son, now he’s treated like flesh and blood, which makes no difference.
"They’ll definitely worry, and they might not let you go."
"Then I’ll keep it from them, only telling them after I return to avoid them worrying."
Since Liu Lingxiu wanted to go to a temple to burn incense and pray, Ye Qiu drove towards Jiming Temple.
Ye Qiu had never been to Jiming Temple before; the last time, he took his parents, sister, and Liu Lingxiu to Qixia Mountain mainly to see maple leaves, but they also went inside the temple to burn incense and pray.
When Ye Qiu arrived at Jiming Temple, he parked the car in the parking lot. Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu got out of the car, bought tickets at the entrance, and went in. Liu Lingxiu pulled Ye Qiu to buy incense, and then pulled him inside, praying one by one, while Ye Qiu didn’t kneel down but stood there watching.
Liu Lingxiu seemed very devout. After she finished praying and they came out, she asked Ye Qiu, "Why didn’t you pray just now?"
"In this world, I don’t believe in these things."
The reason behind it is probably known only to him.
But Liu Lingxiu was different; she didn’t understand.
After coming out from Jiming Temple, they saw many fortune tellers outside.
As Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu were about to leave, they were stopped by a fortune teller. A master looked at Ye Qiu and said, "Sir, I see your forehead is blackened, there’s impending disaster."
Forehead blackened?
Impending disaster?
Ye Qiu just sneered.
Looking at this fortune teller, Ye Qiu recognized him as the so-called Master Yan who had swindled his father out of tens of thousands.
Unexpectedly, the lesson he gave before was so quickly forgotten.
And Liu Lingxiu thought it quite accurate because Ye Qiu was going to support the Southwest pandemic.
"Ye Qiu, he’s quite accurate; why not check it out?" Liu Lingxiu suggested.
"Master, how can this be resolved?"
"By spending money to avert disaster, I’ll pray to Buddha for you," said Master Yan.
Ye Qiu didn’t expect him to bring up money so quickly.
Liu Lingxiu took out two hundred yuan and put it in the box, then asked, "Is this enough?"
"This, probably not."
Liu Lingxiu took out another two hundred yuan and put it on the box on the table.
"Sir, please sit down, I’ll take a look for you." Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu sat down, as Ye Qiu extended his hand for the man to see.
Master Yan examined and then pretended to meditate with closed eyes.
