Chapter 25: Secret Treatment [4] (2/2)
She had brown skin because she showed the performances very often, but it only made her look s.e.xy.
”Yes, good.” The girl nodded and gave her leg. She was better than her father in terms of broad-mindedness at least.
”Good. Yeoni, Open the bag.”
”Yes, sir.”
Yeoni opened the bag again. Ganghyuk took out a cotton ball and forceps from the bag, then gave them to Yeoni.
”Can you do it well?”
”Yes.” She could obviously not say 'No' because the patient was right there, causing her to sigh.
”It is not difficult. Remove the dirty things from the place where you pulled out the needle.”
”With this?”
”Yes, then wipe it with this white thing.”
”She will feel pain…”
It was the sole, which was a very sensitive part; and a wound like this would bring quite a lot of inconvenience. This meant she would have as much pain as one could possibly imagine.
”Yes, it is going to be painful. If you feel too much pain, let me know. Do not bear it silently.”
”I see, but…?”
”But?”
”You must hurry. My father gets up very early.”
”Oh!”
It was not too big a deal even though they were caught by the girl herself. But, if they were caught by the professor?
The best solution might be marriage, and the worst? He might be killed instantly.
”Yeoni, did you hear that?
”Yes… Yes.” Yeoni had experienced interaction with many people in the marketplace. She already had some idea about Changgweon, even though it was the first time for her to see him the day before. She knew that Makbong and she would be surely killed even if Ganghyuk was exempted.
The best would be a shot, and the worst would be 'being rolled in a straw mat' or a club hit. As a result, she was even more anxious.
”Good job! You can endure very well. Yes. Remove that and dig there.”
”What can I do with it?”
”There… that would be too painful. Leave that. She will take medicine for that.”
”Yes, sir.”
The patient had a great capacity of patience and endurance. On the other side, Yeoni did a good job as well. As a result, they could finish the treatment in time.
”You two were so good! Now, put this one on the leg.”
Ganghyuk gave the gauze with a disinfectant to Yeoni, who made a dressing on the leg with it quite skillfully.
”It is done!”
Ganghyuk picked up his body while looking around. It seemed that it was becoming brighter. 'It can get serious if we stay any longer.'
At the same time, Yeoni hurried, ”Sir, let's go.”
”Good! You did a good job. Do not tell your father.”
”No, sir. Do not worry.”
”Sorry, but I treated you without asking your name.”
He had forgotten to ask name as he did with Suns.h.i.+n.
'Is she a famous woman in the history?'
Ganghyuk looked at her while thinking of famous people among women with the last name of Jeong.
The girl smiled and bowed, ”I forgot to introduce myself. I am called Jeong Yeoju.”
”Yeoju…” That name reminded him of no one. 'But I have a strange feeling.'
It seemed very familiar to him, as if he knew the name for a long time.
'Was there a student with that name?'
Ganghyuk shook his head. There was no chance for him to forget female students' names, since there were only a few.
”You have a pretty name. Ok. We will take our leave. Sleep well.”
”I see. Please take care of yourself… And thank you.”
When he came out of the room, he saw Yeoni, who was trying to tie her hair. She tried to make man's bun, but what she ended up with was more like a woman's updo.
Seeing this, he felt something deep inside, 'Yeoni is very familiar as well.'
It was strange! He felt a longing and familiarity on seeing these girls. It was an embarra.s.sing moment for him, as he was a chic boy.
'Is it because I did not do it in too long?'
Looking back, he had not done it even once after being sent to Joseon. A few days ago, he even had a wet dream like an adolescent.
He woke up at midnight alone…
If Dolseok had seen him, he would have laughed at him a lot.
'Yes, it must be…' While he was thinking, he heard a groaning sound.
”Sir, please jump. It is hurting now”
”Oh, I am sorry.”
With that, Ganghyuk jumped over the wall, with Makbong following suite. Yeoni shook her hands to expel mosquitoes.
”Are there mosquitoes already?”
”Huck! There is a patrol.” Makbong suddenly pulled Yeoni and Ganghyuk, waiting till the patrol went away with their torches.
Makbong gave a sigh of relief on seeing them go away.
”What is the reason to treat her after taking such pains? They do not seem to be rich at all.”
”En…”
He could not think of a good answer. Of course he had a pride as a doctor.
'I do not want to let my patient die. But…'
But, he was not the type who would not take care of his safety. Looking back, he did not know why he climbed the wall and treated her like that.
”I don't know. Maybe we had some karma in our last lives. We might get caught. Let's go.”
