Pregnant After Healing the Alpha-Chapter 546 - 535: Qiao Jing’s Burst of Goodwill

Could he really take Grandpa to Wonderful Hall for treatment?!

Qiao Jing hummed affirmatively, and glanced towards Wonderful Hall.

“I’m holding a clinic there today. If you’re willing, bring your grandpa to me for treatment.”

Chi Yuhang hesitated for a moment and then took out the money that had become somewhat crumpled due to his nervous kneading from his pocket.

“Is this enough for the consultation fee?”

Deep down, he really didn’t want to take undue advantage of others; he thought he could first let his grandpa receive treatment and medicine, and then gradually repay the cost by working.

Qiao Jing looked at the few hundred yuan in Chi Yuhang’s hand and extended her hand to take it.

“It’s enough.”

She could tell what Chi Yuhang was thinking, so she took the money without hesitation.

Zhan Nanqing stared at the two hundred yuan, immediately dumbstruck.

She knew the normal consultation fees at Wonderful Hall were around one hundred yuan, but that was the price for other doctors at Wonderful Hall.

This was Divine Doctor Jing personally treating the patient, accepting only two hundred yuan, which also included many precious medications.

This was clearly a loss-making business!

Seeing this, Chi Yuhang immediately helped the resting elder to his feet.

“Grandpa, let’s go to Wonderful Hall for treatment.”

The old man was slow to react, taking about a half a minute before responding.

“Okay, okay, okay… Xiao Hang, doesn’t seeing the doctor cost a lot of money? It’s okay if I don’t get treated; I don’t want to be a burden to you with these old bones.”

Chi Yuhang frowned and supported the old man, walking towards the direction of Wonderful Hall.

“Grandpa! How can we not treat the illness? Plus, you’re not burdening me. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have survived till now.”

Qiao Jing watched the grandfather and grandson’s receding figures, her eyes slightly deepened.

It reminded her of her childhood when Grandpa Zhang, because of a severe illness she had, went from door to door borrowing money, and sold virtually everything that could be sold in their household.

Still, he was slightly short, and even sold his bed to gather enough money for her treatment.

After Grandpa Zhang sold his bed, he slept on the cold floor every night, while she slept in a comfortable little bed.

With her thoughts returning to the present, Qiao Jing silently resolved in her heart.

She must help Chi Yuhang and his grandfather.

Following behind Qiao Jing, Zhan Nanqing said softly,

“Qiao Jing, this Chi Yuhang seems quite filial…”

Qiao Jing remained silent, gazing at the figures of the grandfather and grandson.

After arriving at Wonderful Hall, Qiao Jing quickly made her way to her seat and sat down.

Chi Yuhang helped his grandfather to a chair and sat him down before standing beside him.

He carefully took the old man’s hand and laid it on the table.

“Miss Qiao, thank you for the trouble,” he said.

As usual, Qiao Jing took out a patient registration form and wrote down the date.

“What is the patient’s name?” she asked.

Chi Yuhang immediately answered.

“Chi Chenyun.”

Qiao Jing nodded, wrote the name on the registration form, and then felt Chi Chenyun’s pulse.

A moment later, she withdrew her hand and began writing on the registration form.

Chi Yuhang, with a look of concern, watched Qiao Jing incessantly and took advantage of her writing to quickly explain his grandfather’s condition.

“Miss Qiao, my grandfather’s illness is due to his old age and frailty, compounded by various chronic ailments. His condition has worsened, he has difficulty moving his legs, and he has no appetite for food. I’ve taken him to see doctors and have bought medicine from the pharmacy, but there has been no relief.”

Qiao Jing quietly listened to Chi Yuhang, her brows tightly furrowed. She tore off the registration form and handed it to an assistant.

The assistant quickly took the form from Qiao Jing and went aside to prepare the medicine.

Qiao Jing’s gaze fell on Chi Chenyun, her brows furrowed.

“What medicine have you been buying for the elderly gentleman?”

After taking his pulse, she could tell that he must have been taking medicine, but it was not treating the root cause.

It must be an issue with the medicine then.

Chi Yuhang recited several medicine names he knew by heart, his face etched with nervousness.

“Is there a problem with these medicines? I chose them according to the doctor’s instructions, looking for ones with similar effects but cheaper so that my grandfather could afford them.”

After hearing the names of the medicines, Qiao Jing’s tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed.

“There’s no problem, but the efficacy is not very strong, which is why the old man hasn’t been cured.”

Chi Yuhang, feeling somewhat guilty, bowed his head and asked,

“I’m sorry… My salary isn’t enough to buy such expensive medicines; that’s why I settled for cheaper ones. It was my fault all along… How much does the medicine from Wonderful Hall cost, Miss Qiao? I don’t expect you to give it to me for free. Can I owe you for now? I’ll pay you back as soon as I get paid from my job.”

Chi Chenyun raised his hand to Chi Yuhang’s hand, gently patting it and struggling to open his somewhat cloudy eyes to look at Qiao Jing sitting opposite him.

“Doctor, please don’t blame my Xiao Hang. Xiao Hang has been working very hard to earn money. If I can’t be cured, just let it be. I can’t be a burden to Xiao Hang,” he said.

Zhan Nanqing, who had been sitting quietly on the side, suddenly spoke up.

“What about his parents?” he inquired.

At the mention of his parents, Chi Yuhang replied without changing his expression,

“I don’t have parents.”

Zhan Nanqing was stunned for a moment.

“I’m sorry…”

Chi Yuhang shook his head; these things did not bother him.

Chi Chenyun slowly began to speak.

“His dad was a gambling addict. After accumulating a huge debt he couldn’t pay off, he jumped off a building and left all his debts to Xiao Hang. His mother has remarried, leaving this poor kid all alone with just an old man like me to rely on.”

Qiao Jing’s brows furrowed, and she pressed her lips together.

Her own childhood experiences were not much different, with “biological parents” who were like decorations and a grandfather she relied upon.

Just then, an assistant handed the packaged medicine to Chi Yuhang.
