These examples are not uncommon.
Finding the right doctor is particularly important.
"Don’t even mention it, people of their generation are especially stubborn, afraid to spend money, no matter how you try to persuade them, they won’t listen. Last year around New Year, I wanted to take him for a check-up, but he refused no matter what."
Siying was quite helpless when mentioning her father’s old stubborn mindset.
It’s pretty much the same across the board.
Especially the older generation, because they’ve been through tough times, they live very frugally.
"If we ever develop our clinic well, you can bring him here for a check-up, for free. But if it’s too far, forget about it, the saved check-up fees probably won’t even cover the transportation costs."
Li Jingsheng’s words prompted laughter among everyone.
Getting an X-ray or registering doesn’t actually cost much.
What’s really expensive is hospitalization and surgery.
While everyone was busy, someone knocked on the door outside.
It was Ou Qinglan coming over.
"Qinglan, why are you here?"
"I came to help you move! I worked a bit late today, so I’m a bit late arriving."
Ou Qinglan is not as shy as before nowadays.
After entering, she greeted Tang Ping and others with a smile.
With her joining, there were more laughs and jokes. Everyone loves teasing her about her romance with the boss.
Xiaogao especially enjoyed calling her "boss lady" cheerfully.
Around nine in the evening, the movers arrived.
A few strong men, with arms like tree trunks, muscles solid as rocks. Clearly, they have been built up by doing this job regularly.
Li Jingsheng took down the stainless steel sign of the Bone Setting and replacement technique.
It needs to be hung in the new clinic.
The group was busy until almost 1 AM, finally getting everything sorted out.
Li Jingsheng didn’t hire any security; he definitely planned to sleep at the new clinic tonight.
Looking at the refreshed Sunshine Clinic, everyone felt a surge of joy and anticipation.
"Thank you all for your hard work today, you can go home now! Take a taxi back, and I’ll cover the fare tomorrow."
Li Jingsheng said to the group.
"Jingsheng, why don’t you take a taxi and drop us three ladies home? It’s quite late now, and the two of them are such beauties, taking a taxi might not even be safe."
Ou Qinglan’s suggestion was approved by Tang Ping and Han Siying.
"Alright! The boss lady has spoken, I must comply!"
Li Jingsheng’s words made the group burst into laughter again.
After locking the doors, they finally hailed a cab on the main street outside, and Li Jingsheng sent them home one by one.
He first dropped off Tang Ping, who lived nearest.
Then Ou Qinglan, and finally Han Siying.
Han Siying lived the farthest.
"Siying, how come you live so far out!"
"The rent here is cheap! I’m quite familiar with the area around University City."
"The Old Street of South City also has pretty cheap housing, why not let Dr. Gao help you find a place there? The commute from here to the clinic must take a long time every day."
