Chapter 55: Clinic Opening

On the first day of opening, a long line formed outside the clinic, with patients eager to receive free consultations. However, the bustle and chaos inside the clinic exceeded their expectations. Mo Yan and Mo Xian busied themselves preparing potions and sorting herbs, but their lack of experience led to some mis-mixing. Several patients received incorrect prescriptions, resulting in minor complications instead of effective relief.

At this time, the atmosphere inside the clinic was somewhat chaotic. Xuan Ping and Xuan An, the medicine boys, although diligently learning the medical skills, seemed to be lacking in proficiency in treating patients. Lu Ling'er also encountered some difficulties in her busy schedule. She found that some patients were not polite to the free clinic, and some even made unreasonable demands.

At that moment, Captain Zhang and several officers entered the clinic. Captain Zhang's expression was serious, while the other officers seemed particularly wary. Although they didn't display overt hostility, their tentative attitude was evident.

"Is this...Captain Zhang?" Lu Linger walked forward a little nervously with a polite smile.

Captain Zhang looked around, his eyes roaming over the clinic's layout and staff. His gaze revealed a scrutinizing look. "We heard you opened a clinic, so we came to take a look. Opening day is a bit crowded, so it's bound to be a bit chaotic, and we wanted to get to know you."

Lu Linger tried to remain calm. "Captain Zhang, welcome. Our clinic has just opened, so it's a bit busy. We offer free consultations, so it might take some time to get the herbs and prescriptions right."

Captain Zhang nodded, his expression slightly relaxed. "In that case, we won't disturb your work. It's just that the situation in the capital has been a little unsettled lately, so everyone should be extra careful."

Captain Zhang and his officers didn't stay long in the clinic, and soon took their leave. Before leaving, Captain Zhang reminded them, "The clinic is doing well, and we'll be keeping an eye on it. If you need anything, feel free to contact us."

Watching them leave, Lu Linger took a deep breath and said to Gu Yichen, "It seems that they are still a little suspicious of our clinic. We must be more careful and make sure everything goes smoothly."

Gu Yichen nodded, his tone firm: "Yes, we must remain vigilant, but we must not let their temptations affect our plans. The opening of the clinic is just the beginning. We must continue to work hard to run it even better."

With the departure of Captain Zhang and the officers, the tension in the clinic gradually eased. Although they encountered some troubles and trials on the first day of opening, Lu Ling'er and Gu Yichen believed that as long as they persevered, they would be able to overcome the difficulties, stabilize the clinic, and gradually gain recognition in the city.

By evening, the clinic had become relatively quiet. Lu Ling'er sat in the pavilion in the backyard, gazing at the night sky, her heart filled with mixed emotions. Although the first day of opening hadn't been ideal, she believed that as long as she persevered, the clinic would gradually gain recognition and become a landmark in the city.

Gu Yichen came to her side and patted her shoulder gently: "Although it was a little difficult today, you did a great job. The opening of the clinic is just the beginning. There are still many challenges in the future, but we will definitely overcome them."

Lu Linger smiled and nodded: "Thank you for your encouragement. We will continue to work hard to make the clinic even better."

After a full day of hard work, everyone felt a little tired, but they were still full of hope and confidence. As the clinic gradually stabilized, Lu Ling'er and Gu Yichen began to get more information about the city, and their investigation gradually began. The opening of the clinic was not only the beginning of their new life, but also an important step in their search for the truth.
