Chapter 265: Do Your Family Know About This?
The murmurs from other cars behind them were originally quite loud, but as soon as they saw Lin Yi's license plate, they immediately shut up.
There's nothing you can do about it. The society nowadays is just that ruthless.
Lin Yi nodded and smiled at the security guard, then stepped on the gas and drove in.
Once inside, Lin Yi realized that there were indeed available parking spaces, as there was a row of at least ten empty spots right in front of him.
But Lin Yi could only shake his head helplessly and then his attention focused entirely on Xiao Zihan.
He made sure that Xiao Zihan was not feeling too uncomfortable at the moment and then directly pulled Xiao Zihan towards the entrance.
After asking for directions, queuing to register, and going through all the procedures, half an hour had already passed.
"Aside from nausea, are there any other symptoms like dizziness? Let me see your hand."
Inside a consultation room, a middle-aged female doctor with a vice chief physician card hanging on her chest was asking about Xiao Zihan's condition while placing her hand on her pulse.
Lin Yi, who was standing beside, was taken aback, thinking to himself that it's the 21st century and there's actually someone diagnosing with pulse checking...
Of course, while he found it surprising, Lin Yi didn't have any intention of looking down on traditional Chinese medicine.
He was just very surprised that there are still doctors using such methods now.
The main thing is that this female doctor is clearly not a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner.
The female doctor carefully felt the pulse for about a minute before finally withdrawing her hand.
After hearing that Xiao Zihan had no other symptoms, she nodded and then quickly typed up a blood test order on the computer for Xiao Zihan:
"Go get a blood test first, then come back to see me when the results are out. Don't worry, it shouldn't be anything major."
Upon hearing that it shouldn't be serious, Lin Yi finally let out a long sigh of relief.
However, Xiao Zihan didn't really think much of it in the first place, so she wasn't particularly concerned now either.
But when she heard about the blood test, her face turned a bit pale.
What Lin Yi didn't know was that Xiao Zihan was not only gentle in nature but also had a childhood fear of needles.
Lin Yi seemed to notice what Xiao Zihan was thinking, so he chuckled and said to the female doctor:
"Chief, if the issue's not serious, can't we skip the blood test?"
Even though the woman's title was actually only vice chief, Lin Yi, trained by Lao Lin in the ways of relationships and niceties from a young age, understood.
Even if it's just a 'vice' distinction, it can really give a different feeling.
Even if she is truly just a vice chief, she'd still prefer to be called chief.
This is the wisdom of how to speak in terms of social interactions.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zihan also nodded hastily, eyes full of imploring look.
However, the female doctor merely glanced at Lin Yi before coolly replying:
"No way."
Though she inwardly noted that this young man was handsome and a bit familiar with how to converse, her sight of the delicate and pretty girl beside him made her instinctively unfriendly toward him.
Initially, Lin Yi was only feeling some pity upon seeing Xiao Zihan's pitiful look.
After being refused by the doctor, along with considering the fear, health was ultimately more important.
Only when the test results were out and it was confirmed that nothing was wrong could Lin Yi be completely at ease.
Sure enough, Lin Yi was right.
At the blood draw station, watching as a needle was inserted into her arm, Xiao Zihan's red lips were tightly bitten by her teeth.
Not only that, her lowered eyes were filled with tears of grievance.
Yet despite this, she did not make a sound.
No matter how scared she was inside, she still held herself together strongly.
Lin Yi, observing this from the side, immediately stepped forward to embrace her, softly comforting her with his words.
Another half an hour later, the blood test results came out, and Lin Yi and Xiao Zihan returned to the previous female doctor's office.
Just such a simple procedure for seeing a doctor ended up making Lin Yi and Xiao Zihan waste nearly half a day in the hospital.
However, Lin Yi could only stare helplessly, knowing that no matter how much money or status he had, there was nothing he could do, as there were simply too many people.
Of course, this is also why Lin Yi didn't reveal his identity.
"Chief, the test results are out. Could you please take a look?"
After the patients left, Lin Yi walked graciously over with a gentle smile, handing the test results to the female doctor.
The doctor took the test results from Lin Yi without saying a word.
After just a glance at the paper, she turned her gaze to Xiao Zihan.
However, her gaze towards Xiao Zihan was clearly filled with affection, unlike when she looked at Lin Yi.
"Girl, aren't you still in college? Does your family know about you and your boyfriend?"
She asked because Xiao Zihan seemed quite young.
And if her guess was right, this was likely another pair of overly affectionate college sweethearts...
