Chapter 862: Everyone Wanted To Get Acquainted To An Apothecary
Ji Ya was afraid to hold the apothecary up, so she quickly hung up after she was done talking.
“He is coming over to the hospital tomorrow morning to examine grandfather,” said Ji Ya to her mother and uncle after putting away her phone.
The moment Song Qi heard what her daughter said, she was even more shocked than when she first heard Ji Ya was connected to someone from the Apothecaries’ Association. “… Is he personally coming to examine him?”
They could already count their lucky stars that the apothecary could help. Was he even going to personally examine Old Master Song?
Song Qi was stunned and found this surreal.
“Uh huh. He is coming at 10:00 am. Why don’t you and Uncle Zhi be present at the time?” Ji Ya pondered before she added. “I think we shouldn’t tell anyone in the family right now. If too many people show up, I am worried that my teacher’s friend might get annoyed.”
Song Zhi instantly caught her drift and was even more impressed by his niece. He promptly smiled and nodded. “Okay. Don’t worry. Your mother and I won’t tell anyone about it for now.”
People would give their eye teeth to meet an apothecary in the flesh.
Ji Ya was clearly giving him the opportunity of his life to meet the apothecary personally.
Ji Ya smiled and said nothing. She turned to glance at her grandfather lying on the hospital bed and wondered when he could regain consciousness. She paused before she said, “In that case, I am going back. I have to go to school for a meeting.”
“Sure sure. Go ahead.” Song Zhi looked at her genially.
“Uh huh.” Ji Ya nodded politely before taking her books and walking out of the hospital ward.
Song Qi followed behind Ji Ya. “Let me walk you out.”
Before long, the two of them left the hospital ward. When they got to the lift, Ji Ya told her mother to go back. She turned sideways slightly as she pressed for the lift and looked at her mother. “Mom, why did you tell Uncle Zhi that I got myself tested?”
Song Qi knew her daughter was going to ask about this. She cleared her throat uneasily, lowered her eyes, and felt embarrassed to make eye contact with her. “I didn’t want you to suffer by donating your bone marrow.”
“Mom, Grandpa is family. How could you say that?” Ji Ya sounded powerless. Sometimes, she did not know what her mother was thinking.
Did her mother have to lie to her family?
Did her mother have to scheme and plot at every turn? Did her mother not know that her family would leave her if she kept this up?
“You are still young, so you don’t understand how things work.” Song Qi could only shake her head. She did not want to get into an argument with her daughter over this, so she simply said, “Stop asking so much and just focus on your career.”
Since the lift was not here yet, Song Qi quickly changed the subject. “I am so proud of you for finding an apothecary from the Apothecaries’ Association. Please thank your teacher for helping us. We must return the favor.”
Ji Ya looked at Song Qi and paused for a second before she said, “You don’t have to complicate things. My teacher is not the sort who expects people to return favors when he offers to help. I suggest you watch what you say tomorrow so as not to annoy my teacher’s friend.”
Song Qi nodded patronizingly. “Got it. Don’t worry.”
Meanwhile, the lift chimed, so Ji Ya did not go on talking to her mother.
The moment the door opened, they saw Zhu standing in the lift. He was equally stunned to see Song Qi and Ji Ya standing there. After he composed himself, he hurriedly walked out of the lift.
“Hi, Miss Ya and Mrs. Ji,” said Zhu as he nodded reverently.
Ji Ya nodded to him before entering the lift.
After the lift had gone downstairs, Song Qi walked towards the hospital ward. As she walked, she asked Zhu who was following beside her. “How are things going?”
