Chapter 578 - Help My Junior Fellow Apprentice Come to the World Early (1/2)
“Hee-hee.”
Hearing Xu Miaolin’s words, Fang Qiu grinned. He stared at Xu Miaolin and asked, “As a teacher, aren’t you giving your student something?”
“I’ve already given it to you!”
Xu Miaolin threw up his hands.
“What?”
Fang Qiu was bewildered and asked, “What did you give me?”
“Can you recall the day when we met for the second time?” Xu Miaolin asked.
“Of course I can.”
Fang Qiu nodded.
“Think about it carefully. What did I give you at that time?” Xu Miaolin questioned.
“The Theory of Bonesetting?” answered Fang Qiu.
“Yeah. That’s it!”
Xu Miaolin snickered and said, “I gave the Theory of Bonesetting to you. Who can you blame if you can’t understand it?”
“Well, you won.”
Fang Qiu smiled wryly.
Despite that, he thought to himself, “In fact, I did understand the Theory of Bonesetting!”
“By the way,” Xu Miaolin suddenly remarked as if thinking of something, “come and have dinner at my house tonight.”
“Why?”
Fang Qiu was nonplussed.
“It’s not my treat. But never mind. Remember to bring your girlfriend with you,” Xu Miaolin added as an afterthought.
“Sure.”
Fang Qiu agreed without hesitation.
After returning the book, Fang Qiu went back to the dormitory. He took out his mobile phone and checked the WeChat group of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor only to find that the group was still filled with complaints.
“It’s Friday now, and the show crew hasn’t told us to go to the capital yet. What are they thinking?”
“Though they’ve mentioned that this episode would probably be a live telecast, they should at least inform us, the contestants, when it has been determined, right?”
“And the rules. Up to now, we still don’t know the rules in these episodes. How can we participate in the competition when we have no idea what the rules are?”
All kinds of grumbles kept coming out one after another.
However, as just everyone was roasting fiercely, an avatar that seldom appeared suddenly popped up.
“Report your arrivals at the same hotel in the same place at eight o’clock tomorrow night!”
At the sight of this message, the others in the chat group were startled at first.
Then, upon taking a closer look, they found out that the person who sent this message was Director Li Huawen!
“Gee, Director, you finally showed up.”
“Director, I’ve been waiting for your message for ages!”
“Hey, what on earth does your program team want to do?”
“Are you going to make a big move?”
“Begging for inside information!”
Except for Fang Qiu, the other nine people continued to issue their opinions in the WeChat group.
Yet, to answer their request of “Begging for the inside story”, Director Li Huawen immediately sent another message—”That’s interesting!”
“…”
“This is a heavy blow from the director!”
“I’m spitting blood.”
“@Li Huawen, Director, don’t be so cold. We’ll get hurt if you keep acting like this!”
Watching the discussion on WeChat, Fang Qiu couldn’t help feeling a little curious.
“What on earth has the program team had in store for us?
“Even if it is a live broadcast, the notice shouldn’t be held back until it’s so late. Besides, in addition to the gathering place, we know nothing about the last episode of the program.
“We even don’t know the rules when we are competing in the final.
“What the hell is the program crew doing?”
Well, what the 10 contestants didn’t know was that at this time, the people who returned to the program team in the capital from 10 different places were now going back to the studio at the Central Television Building.
The place where the 10 groups of people went was where the 10 contestants had been seeing patients for three consecutive days before.
After they came back, the program team immediately buried themselves in work and began to frantically edit the materials collected by the 10 groups!
At 5:30 p.m., Fang Qiu looked at the clock. It was almost the opening time of the school canteen. Xu Miaolin also just got off work. In case Jiang Miaoyu went to dine in the canteen without knowing the dinner invitation, Fang Qiu immediately made a phone call to her.
“Hello.”
Jiang Miaoyu picked up the phone and said, “Are you missing me now?”
“Yes, I think about you every day.”
Fang Qiu laughed.
“Hmph!” Jiang Miaoyu snorted and said, “If you really miss me, how could you leave me alone all day?”
“So now I’m coming to you.”
Fang Qiu smiled awkwardly and said, “Let’s have dinner together.”
“Sounds good.”
Jiang Miaoyu nodded at once and asked, “Where are we going to eat?”
“Professor Xu’s place.”
Fang Qiu added, “Highly-skilled Doctor Chu’s treat.”
“Um?”
Jiang Miaoyu was dazed.
How could she, as an apprentice of Highly-skilled Doctor Chu, not know that her master was giving her a treat?
“You just finished your class. Your master can’t really run into your classroom and tell you this, can he?”
Fang Qiu seemed to have thought of this and so explained, “When I went to the library, Xu Miaolin told me this. He also said that I must bring you to dinner as well. Otherwise, I don’t need to go at all.”
“Really?”
Jiang Miaoyu was amused.
“Of course it’s true. Where are you now? I’ll go picking you up,” asked Fang Qiu.
“Well, I just arrived at the dormitory. Wait for me at the school gate. I’ll be right there.”
Jiang Miaoyu answered and hung up the phone.
A short while later, Jiang Miaoyu arrived at the school gate.
Holding hands with their fingers intertwined, the two of them headed to Xu Miaolin’s place while chatting.
