In those years, her mother was seriously ill and hospitalized, and her father was busy making money, so she entrusted the young girl to the care of Mother Zhao next door. Although she was paid a nanny fee, she knew that Uncle Zhao and Mother Zhao only charged a nominal fee, which was not even enough for them to spend on her food and daily necessities.

"Uncle Zhao, I think Mother Zhao would really like to see you living a healthy and happy life." She said softly, putting away her sadness and nostalgia.

Uncle Zhao gently pulled his lips and laughed at himself: "If my unworthy son is one thousandth as good as yours, then I will be happy." When he mentioned his only son, the old man looked sad.

Meng Jiali didn't know how to comfort her at the moment. She had met Uncle Zhao's son a few times after she came back. When she was a child, she thought he was very naughty, but she didn't expect that now he has become an idle and naughty old man. He runs rampant in the town every day, causing trouble, and making people shake their heads with disdain when he mentions it.

"Cough cough cough—"

The old man's cough continued to echo in the silent clinic. Meng Jiali had an uneasy premonition. Just when she was about to open her mouth to let him undergo a preliminary simple examination, the door of the clinic was suddenly opened.

"Who is the doctor? We need to go to the emergency room!"

Meng Jiali looked at the man and woman who came uninvited to the door, and was slightly stunned when her eyes touched the man's face.

"The doctor is seeing a doctor, please go out and register first." Dong Wenfang hurriedly stepped forward to drive them out.

The woman who spoke out glared at Dong Wenfang, stretched out her hand to push her away, and stepped forward, "Shouldn't the doctor look at emergency cases first? Or are the doctors in small towns who don't have the medical skills to dare to diagnose?"

Meng Jiali looked away, as if she didn't hear the sarcasm in the woman's words, and responded with her usual smile, "It seems that this gentleman's illness is not enough to go to the emergency room. I am seeing a doctor now. Please go out and register first, and wait for the nurse to call someone."

"Hmph, he's just a doctor from a small clinic, and he puts on such a big show. If it weren't for this small clinic in a remote place, you wouldn't be able to get patients like our president. Even Taipei T University wouldn't dare to neglect our president. Who are you?"

President?So he is still a person with good background?Meng Jiali couldn't help but look at the man standing silently aside, but was shocked by the undisguised disgust on his face.

His eyes were gloomy, his handsome face was as cold as frost, and his tall body wrapped in a designer plaid shirt and beige casual pants exuded a noble and serious aura, instantly filling the entire clinic with a sense of oppression.

"In that case, then go find another doctor! A small clinic like ours can't handle big shots like you." Dong Wenfang was annoyed by the woman's arrogance and sarcastic words.

"Do you think we want to come? This poor place doesn't even have a better hospital. It's really unbearable." The woman waved her hand in front of her nose, as if even the air was filthy.

"You-" Dong Wenfang blushed in annoyance and almost wanted to tell them to go back to Taipei, but when she came into contact with Meng Jiali's calm and comforting eyes, she swallowed her words abruptly.

"Before life, everyone is equal. Please wait outside." Meng Jiali spoke softly, but without any hint of compromise. Before they could respond, she turned to the old man and said, "Uncle Zhao, I asked Wenfang to take you for an X-ray."

Uncle Zhao wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it he didn't want to embarrass Meng Jiali, so he nodded and stood up, "I'll just listen to you, cough cough cough -"

"That's good." Meng Jiali bent her eyes and smiled brightly, causing the man who had been staring at her to flicker his eyes, his eyes secretive.

"Uncle Zhao, come with me." Dong Wenfang smiled at the old man, then turned to glare at the two people blocking the door, "You also come out with me, don't hinder the doctor's treatment."

The woman put her hands on her hips and looked domineering, completely ignoring the little nurse.

"Let's go." The man spoke slowly. His deep and magnetic voice was like the strings of a piano played lightly in the middle of the night. Although it was still cold, it was very pleasant.

"But your wound-" The woman looked worriedly at the gauze wrapped simply on his forehead, which was bleeding slightly at the moment.

"I didn't plan to come here in the first place." He said calmly. If she hadn't forced him to drive here, he wouldn't have planned to see her again so soon.

Meng Jiali's eyebrows raised slightly.Why on earth did he reject her so much?From the beginning to the end, this man didn't give her a good look. She seemed to be hated by this stranger, but she didn't know why.

"Hey, I know the medical skills of the doctors here are not very good, but let's do the preliminary treatment first, and then we will go back to Taipei for detailed inspection." The woman advised with concern.

"Hmph, our doctor didn't even bother to stay in a big hospital before resigning and returning to his hometown to practice medicine. His medical skills are very good." Dong Wenfang couldn't help but ridicule.

"Wen Fang." Meng Jiali pulled her lips helplessly and reminded her, "Uncle Zhao is waiting. You can take him first."

Dong Wenfang nodded reluctantly and led the old man out.

"Humph, why do you want to resign? How could someone be so stupid, so unreasonable, that he would take a job in a small clinic like this? He was obviously fired by Fire, and I don't know if there was any medical dispute?" The woman's sneer sounded from the gap between her teeth.

The man glanced at Meng Jiali, turned around without saying a word, and walked away.

"Wait." Meng Jiali called to him and stood up at the same time.

The man paused and slowly turned his head, his handsome face expressionless.

Meng Jiali didn't hesitate, stepped forward, stood on tiptoes, and stretched her hand to his forehead.

"What do you want to do?" the woman scolded.

"You've talked so much, don't you just want me to diagnose and treat him?" Meng Jiali smiled slightly, without any anger at all.

"Humph, you know what's going on!" the woman said nonchalantly, a pair of slender eyes staring closely at her movements.

Meng Jiali continued to peel off the gauze, revealing the slightly red and swollen wound."It's a bit inflamed." She frowned slightly, "I told you I would need stitches."

The woman's eyes flickered, and she looked at the man and then at Meng Jiali with a somewhat unnatural look, as if she didn't expect that they had met before.

"Why don't you hurry up and sew it up?" Her voice was a little sharp.

"Please go out first, so as not to affect my medical consultation." Meng Jiali's soft voice carried an unquestionable order.

The woman frowned and was about to speak, but after receiving the man's gaze, she bit her lower lip and said, "You'd better not mess up!" After giving the warning, she hesitated for a few seconds before opening the door and leaving.

There were only two of them left in the clinic, and the suffocating pressure became even heavier.

Meng Jiali walked to the cabinet where the treatment equipment was placed and said, "Come here."

The man had a calm expression and did not move for a long time. His thick eyelashes drooped slightly, covering his sharp black eyes.

Just when she thought he wouldn't come over obediently, the man opened his long legs and walked towards her gracefully.

"Sit down." She smiled with satisfaction and continued to order.

The man glanced at her without objection and sat upright on the chair.

"It might hurt a little, so if you can't help but tell me, I will try to be gentle." Meng Jiali cleaned her hands first, put on medical gloves, and began to clean his wounds.

He could feel a slight coolness and tingling coming from the place where her fingers touched, and then it turned to numbness, with only a slight pulling sensation. Before he had time to feel more pain, she had quickly sutured the wound and bandaged it properly.

"Okay, remember not to touch the water. The nurse will tell you how to take care of the wound. You can tell your girlfriend to rest assured that I am not up to anything." Meng Jiali took off her gloves and threw them into the trash can for collecting medical waste. She gave instructions as she walked back to the treatment table and sat down.

The man's originally gloomy expression instantly darkened a bit, "She is not my girlfriend."

Meng Jiali was stunned, "Oh." It meant that she didn't need to know, "I'm going to invite the next patient in. Please go outside and wait for the nurse to notify you." She said without raising her head.

Seeing her nonchalant expression, clusters of ice flames burned faintly in the man's eyes, and a deep voice burst out from between his teeth, "You haven't remembered yet?"

Meng Jiali paused her hand that was recording the case, and raised her face to look at him. Her beautiful face was full of confusion, "I have always felt that you are very hostile to me. If you don't mind, can you tell me directly? In my memory, I don't seem to have offended you. No, I should not have any interaction with you." So, why does he hate her so much?
