After coming out of Baifang City, Lin Mian took the subway back to the dormitory alone.
Her roommates were all out for classes, so she went straight to the bathroom and took a shower. The marks on her body were red and purple, looking somewhat disturbing.
The man from last night was not gentle, even bordering on cold and rough.
She spent quite some time scrubbing herself inside out, then put on her pajamas and lay down on her bed, taking a deep breath.
The familiar surroundings and smells helped to calm her heart a little.
Looking at her phone, Lin Mian noticed that Shi Lin had not sent the money yet.
She stared at the empty chat box for a while, typed a few lines with a blush on her face, and ultimately couldn't help but delete them.
Maybe she should wait a little longer.
It wasn't easy for her to ask for this kind of money.
...
Shi Lin performed a surgery early in the morning and was busy for a few hours, completely forgetting about it.
It wasn't until three o'clock in the afternoon when he came out of the operating room and checked the time on his phone. His eyes landed on the faint marks on his arm, and suddenly remembered about this.
With a single finger, he opened WeChat and easily found Lin Mian's account. Her profile picture was a dark-toned cartoon image of a girl with a black hat.
Her name was just two simple letters: LM.
The chat box between them was empty, with no messages at all.
She wanted the money so badly, but he didn't send it, and she didn't ask him for it either.Shi Lin tugged at his lips, lightly tapped his fingertips, entered a string of numbers, and hesitated before deleting it when it came time to enter the password.
Let's see how long she can keep up the act.
Back at the outpatient department, he was almost non-stop busy. The doctor on duty for the gastroenterology department had taken leave, so Shi Lin changed into his clothes to cover his shift.
As the end of the day approached, there were only a few scattered patients left.
"Knock, knock."
A polite knocking sound came from outside.
"Come in," Shi Lin responded.
The door to the consultation room was pushed open from the outside, and there were slow, gentle footsteps approaching.
"Where does it hurt?" Shi Lin asked without even lifting his head, looking at the medical record book.
"Doctor, I have a stomachache."
The voice... soft and familiar.
Shi Lin glanced up and saw Lin Mian's face.
At the same time, Lin Mian also saw him. Her slightly chubby face with a hint of baby fat was slightly surprised, then turned red quickly, even her earlobes suspiciously flushed.
It's him?
So he is a doctor.
She quickly felt embarrassed and lowered her head, feeling a bit awkward.
On the other hand, Shi Lin coldly looked at her, speaking indifferently as if he didn't know her: "How does it hurt?"
Lin Mian sat in the chair, stuttering with her head down, "It's a sharp, intermittent pain, it hurts when I walk, it hurts when I sit down."
"Lie down on the bed and pull up your shirt," Shi Lin instructed, typing a few lines on the computer without looking upShe walked to the edge of the bed and lay down in an orderly manner on the narrow examination bed, where the first thing she saw was the ceiling overhead.
After a while, the man wearing medical rubber gloves walked over, from Lin Mian's perspective she could only see his white coat, and the name on the chest plate on the left side.
"Gastroenterology, Shi Lin."
So his name was Shi Lin.
Lin Mian silently noted this name in her heart.
There was a faint scent of disinfectant on him, somewhat similar to the scent from last night, which made her mind inevitably start to wander.
The next moment, Shi Lin's hand pressed firmly and precisely on her abdomen, asking, "Does it hurt here?"
Blushing, Lin Mian replied, "A little lower."
Shi Lin moved down another few inches, "Here?"
Lin Mian nodded awkwardly, "Yes."
His fingers were almost pressed against her lower abdomen. Although he was wearing gloves, the warm temperature of his fingers penetrated through the rubber, invading her skin, making Lin Mian feel breathless.
Shi Lin pressed a few more spots, confirmed the location, received her responses, and finally let go, understanding the issue.
It was not a stomach problem, but rather menstrual cramps.
Last night he had been rough, and being her first time, it was inevitable that she would feel physically uncomfortable afterwards.
But he didn't expect her to have such a delicate constitution, still in pain after a day.
She was quite delicate.
Sitting at the desk, Shi Lin's fingers, with prominent joints, rhythmically typed: "I'll prescribe some medication for you, take it three times a day, after meals."
Blushing, Lin Mian got off the bed, quickly adjusted her clothes, and obediently sat down in the chair opposite Shi Lin, waitingHe opened a prescription.
When the time Lin printed out the prescription and handed it to her with his long and clear hands, he thought for a moment and suddenly added, "Remember, no bed activities for a week."
Lin Mian's face blushed even more, and she nodded her head in a daze, taking the prescription and medical insurance card from him.
"Do you remember?" The man held her card and asked again.
Lin Mian nodded, "I remember."
"Repeat it."
"One dose three times a day, take it after meals, no bed activities for a week." Lin Mian blushed and repeated it, wishing she could bury herself in a hole. Was her current state all his doing from last night?
Besides being with him, where would she have any bed activities?
"Let's go." The man leaned back slightly and let go of the medical insurance card and prescription at the same time.
Lin Mian took the prescription and hurriedly left.
When she reached the door, she hesitated for a moment, then turned back to him and said, "You haven't transferred the money to me yet."
