Chapter 22 Ah Meow Changes His Medicine (2/2)

”Yes, its situation is quite good. I think that the medicine worked.” Li Du showed her the cage.

As the nurse carefully played with Ah Meow, the cat took the initiative by pushing its paws forward.

”My name is Kanali. You are a very kind man—God bless you.”

”Thank you. In that case, could we change the medicine here?”

Kanali shook her head before continuing, ”You don't need to change the drugs here, Li. The fees at the hospital are very expensive. I can get you the names of the drugs which you can get at your local clinic.”

”It's not prescription drugs, right?” question Li Du.

In America, getting prescription drugs was quite hard at the local pharmacies.

”It's simply medicine for outer trauma—a kid-friendly version. Also, Dr. Sophie isn't in today, so when you need help changing the medicine, you can go visit her home.”

Li Du hesitated. ”Is that really alright? I'm not troubling her?”

”I think Sophie would love your visit,” Kanali said with a smile. ”In fact, I think this is what she would want. She likes little animals very much, and will probably play with Ah Meow for an entire afternoon.”

Since he visited Sophie's house with Hans just two days ago, there was no need to ask for directions.

After Kanali helped him get in contact with Sophie, he drove directly there. When he got to the door, Sophie was already waiting outside.

The chill of early spring was still in the air, and blonde hair twisted in a braid down the young doctor's back. She wore a blue sweater and a high collared blouse decorated with lace that resembled flowers. As she stood upon the porch showing off her slim figure, she resembled the blooming flowers of early spring.

Seeing Li Du and the kitten, Sophie let out a captivating smile that showed her anticipation.

At this, Li Du's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't help but wonder when his charisma increased to such a degree that a beautiful doctor like Sophie would smile at him. Did she like him?

As if answering his unrealistic dream, Sophie directly went to Ah Meow.

Perhaps because of the shadow left behind by the surgery, the normally fierce Ah Meow behaved like a calm kitten, and didn't attack Sophie as she caressed it. In fact, Ah Meow's tremble could clearly be seen upon her touch.

”Everything's alright, good kitty. Let's see if your butt is any better today,” Sophie said, comforting Ah Meow after they went inside.

Hearing this, Li Du's heart skipped another beat, which made him speechless. It couldn't be that he was having a heart attack, right?

Seeing that it wasn't any serious injury—and that Sophie often faced such issues—even though it took over an hour, the entire process was quite smooth and soon Ah Meow was taken care of.

With nothing else to do, Li Du quickly swept his gaze across the living room.

The house had been carefully cleaned, and the dark brown floor shone with the gloss of oak, contrasting the milky-white sofa and tea table.

There was very little decoration or furniture in the room; the only thing of note was the white piano that stood with the same color as the other furniture.

Since he really couldn't just stare at the girl the entire time, he shifted his gaze to the piano.

Noticing his attention, Sophie asked after taking care of Ah Meow, ”Do you play the piano?”

Li Du decided to show off his elegant side: ”Um, when I was in school, I often listened to Mozart—eh, Mozart used the piano for his compositions, right? Don't tell me that he used the violin.”

Hearing the second part of his rambling, Sophie chuckled. ”Of course he did. He could play and compose with many instruments. His talent composing classical music is unmatched.”

After that, with nothing else between them, they soon descended into an awkward silence. At this, Li Du understood the situation, and with another round of thanks, he soon left with Ah Meow.
