Spirit Curing Pet Clinic.
Sun Xiaomeng was sitting alone in her office, contemplating with her chin rested on her hands.
In front of her, the computer screen was displaying two documents: one was a PDF file in English about animal behaviorism, and the other one was a Word file where the cursor was blinking. It was the Chinese version of the PDF file which was translated by a translation software.
On her right side, a pot of bracket plant on the windowsill was bathing in the soft autumn sunshine and growing healthily, bringing vigor to this quiet and simple office.
Behind her was a customized bookshelf that almost covered the whole wall. The bookshelf was stuffed with all kinds of professional books. Voluminous books that were as thick as dictionaries were put on the bottom, regular academic books were placed on the top shelves where she could reach them by raising her hands, and in the prime position in the middle were the latest journals and magazines in Chinese and in English. If she was going to relocate her clinic in the future, it would take much effort to move this bookshelf alone.
It was not accurate to say that she was in contemplation: she was absent-minded. Her brain was completely vacant, a status she enjoyed very much, because she could temporarily get away from her busy schedule in the clinic and her studies so that her brain could get a rest.
Knock, knock!
She was woken up from her vacant status by a knock on her office door.
”Come in.” She rubbed her palms and placed her warm palms on her cheeks so that her stiff face became softer.
Wang Qian and Li Kun pushed the door open, but they didn't come in. They just stood at the door and said, ”Sister Xiaomeng, we have cleaned everywhere else except your office. Would you like to check up our work?”
Sun Xiaomeng didn't ask them to clean this office because her ”patients’” medical records were placed on her desk, and she was afraid that they would mess them up. Besides, she was the only one who usually came in this office, so it was not dirty at all.
”No, I won’t check. You can leave earlier if you have finished your work.” She trusted them and was satisfied with their work. Cleaning for a clinic was heavy work, but they had done it really well.
In the beginning, Sun Xiaomeng was really disgusted by their stupid talking, and for a time, she really wanted to tell them not to come to her clinic anymore. But later, she found that they were very responsible at work, and since they had experience working for a pet shop, they were also good at taking care of pets. Their stupid talking was dwarfed by their excellent work, so she gradually got used to their presence in her clinic.
”Okay, we are leaving then.” They said goodbye to Sun Xiaomeng and closed the door softly.
They didn't leave the clinic right away. Instead, they went to the cashier and cozied up to Long Xian again. It was obvious that they quite liked the new nurse. Why? Probably because Long Xian was very patient and could tolerate their stupid talking, though in the eyes of Sun Xiaomeng, Long Xian was just being polite.
After a while, their voices disappeared. They probably had left the clinic and went back to the university for classes.
Knock, knock!
Someone was knocking at the door again.
”Come in.”
Long Xian pushed open the door and stuck in her head, ”Sister Xiaomeng, Wu Yue is here. I have brought her to the operating room.”
”Okay, I'll be there in a minute.”
Sun Xiaomeng checked the calendar on her computer, and pulled a medical records file from the cubbyholes on her desk. She put it under one arm, walked out of the office quickly, made a right turn and then arrived at the operating room.
”Hello, Doctor, I’m here to trouble you again.”
