A peasant girl travels through time with a hospital, rising to become an empress.

Nie Qianqian forced herself to remain calm, "What, is there something else?"

Gu Xiao pondered for a moment, then shook his head. "It's nothing."

He closed the door and walked away.

He was probably overthinking it. Doctor Qian's medical skills were so superb that even if Nie Qianqian had started learning medicine from birth, she couldn't possibly have such skills.

The door closed. Nie Qianqian appeared calm on the surface, but she was actually panicking. Gu Xiao must have become suspicious. He was meticulous, and if he became suspicious, she was afraid that she would be exposed in the future.

How to do?

Nie Qianqian's mind was racing; her CPU was practically overheating.

In a flash, she entered the space, quickly took off Doctor Qian's clothes, and then immediately flashed back. Without the slightest hesitation, she jumped out of the window like a rabbit, grabbed the second-floor windowsill, flipped over again, and landed.

Even though Nie Qianqian had been diligently cultivating and strengthening her physique during this period, her ankle still hurt a bit after jumping from this height.

Ignoring the pain in her ankle, Nie Qianqian rushed to the back door of Jishetang.

Gu Xiao had just undergone surgery, and his hand was completely immobilized, which would affect his movement. He must be going down the stairs very slowly.

Nie Qianqian entered Jishetang through the back door and rushed straight to the pharmacy. She slammed the door open, but due to her speed and inertia, she couldn't stop after breaking through the door. She rushed straight to Doctor Huang and only stopped a few centimeters away, giving Doctor Huang a close-up shot.

Doctor Huang was preparing medicine in the pharmacy. It was his daily habit to stay in the pharmacy at this time. Suddenly, the pharmacy door was violently kicked open, startling him so much that he jumped up from his chair, his soul almost leaving his body. The medicine in his hands spilled all over the floor. When he came to his senses, he saw Nie Qianqian's big face in front of him.

Dr. Huang patted his chest, "That scared me to death! The old man is getting on in years and can't take a fright. What are you doing, girl? When did you get so anxious?"

Doctor Huang is the only person at Jishetang besides Director Zhang who knows her true identity. If Gu Xiao wants to completely dispel his doubts, he must be asked for her help.

Nie Qianqian said urgently, "It's extremely urgent, you must do me a favor."

Dr. Huang was a slow-paced person, and asked unhurriedly, "Qianqian, don't panic when something happens. First, you need to explain what's wrong so I can assess whether I can help..."

Nie Qianqian was extremely anxious and quickly interrupted, saying, "If you help me, I will teach you how to treat tuberculosis."

Dr. Huang immediately lost his composure, raising his voice instantly to sound like a rooster being suddenly choked: "Really?!"

Nie Qianqian: "Don't waste time, I'll tell you what to do, hurry up!"

···

After hearing what Nie Qianqian wanted him to do, Dr. Huang didn't understand why he had to do it. "It's so easy, but..."

Nie Qianqian peeked through the crack in the door and saw Gu Xiao, Dean Qiu, and Director Zhang slowly coming down the stairs. "Dr. Huang, don't ask anymore, just do as instructed."

She reached out and rubbed her hands inside Dr. Huang's sleeves, then pushed him out of the pharmacy, muttering, "Go away!"

Dr. Huang was staggered out of the pharmacy, muttering, "What a strange girl."

Dr. Huang spotted Director Zhang and his group and quickly stepped forward. "Director Zhang, I've been looking for you for ages. I have a difficult patient here who needs your help."

Concerned about the patients, Director Zhang said to Dean Qiu and Gu Xiao, "In that case, I won't see you off."

Dean Qiu: "Director Zhang, please go ahead and get busy. I will take Gu Xiao home."

Gu Xiao didn't recognize Doctor Huang, but he smelled a familiar scent on him: the fragrance of jasmine.

Gu Xiao raised an eyebrow and scrutinized Doctor Huang, wondering why he also smelled of jasmine.

The scent is exactly the same as the one I smelled on Nie Qianqian and Doctor Qian.

That's true, if Nie Qianqian can use this, others can use it too.

Gu Xiao chuckled self-deprecatingly; he had indeed been overthinking things.

After Dean Qiu and Gu Xiao left, Director Zhang asked, "Let's go see the patient you mentioned."

Dr. Huang shrugged. “Current Director, please come with me.”

Dr. Huang led Director Zhang toward the pharmacy. Director Zhang asked, puzzled, "Why did you bring me to the pharmacy? Where is the patient?"

Dr. Huang pushed open the door and pointed to Nie Qianqian sitting inside, "It's her, she's sick."

When Director Zhang saw Nie Qianqian, her face was flushed and beads of sweat were on her forehead. She was sitting at the table drinking tea in large gulps.

Director Zhang was puzzled. "What exactly happened?"

Nie Qianqian sighed deeply, feeling even more tired than after the surgery, and muttered to herself, "My cheap husband is not easy to fool."

Nie Qianqian took out her usual shower gel from her spatial storage, put it into a porcelain bottle, and handed it to Doctor Huang.

Dr. Huang rolled up his sleeve, revealing a damp spot on the cuff.

"Is this what you felt on my sleeve just now? It's sticky, what's it for?"

Nie Qianqian explained, "This is for bathing. You put it in the water to wash away dirt. You just promised me that you would use this to bathe every day from now on, and ask me for it when you're done."

She added, "This must not be told to Gu Xiao."

This statement allowed Director Zhang to roughly guess the purpose behind Nie Qianqian and Doctor Huang's actions.

He leaned closer and smelled a faint, pleasant fragrance emanating from the porcelain bottle.

"This is truly a rare item. Could you spare a bottle for me?"

Nie Qianqian took out another porcelain bottle. "Dr. Huang's bottle is jasmine scented, this one is gardenia scented, so I'll give it to Director Zhang of the station."

From now on, Director Zhang will have to cover for us, and we can't skimp on sweet talk and flattery.

Nie Qianqian was really tired, both physically and mentally exhausted. She needed to find a place to rest properly, take a bath in her space, and then go pick up Liu Yan.

Nie Qianqian: "Director Zhang, Dr. Huang, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

After Nie Qianqian left, the two of them studied the porcelain vase for a long time.

Doctor Huang: "This thing is so exquisite and rare, it couldn't be an item used in the palace, could it?"

Director Zhang shook his head. "It's probably even more exquisite than what's used in the palace."

"I personally examined Gu Xiao's arm. Because the injury had been going on for so long, I was at a loss. I originally thought that Nie Qianqian might not be able to treat him this time. Unexpectedly, she performed debridement and treatment on Gu Xiao's broken bone in a short period of time."

Dr. Huang: "Can it really be restored to its original state?"

Director Zhang: "It depends on Gu Xiao's recovery, but seeing how confident Nie Qianqian is, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Dr. Huang suddenly let out a long sigh, his back hunching slightly. "What an extraordinary woman! I, Old Huang, am truly humbled. Looking at this, we're both getting old..."

Director Zhang opened the porcelain bottle and smelled the fragrance again. "Old Huang, don't belittle yourself. Her medical skills are likely inherited from her family, forming a unique system with its own unique aspects that we can't replicate. Don't be so narrow-minded. In our time together, I've observed that although Dr. Nie is young, she is steady and experienced in her medical practice. She's not arrogant or secretive. She's straightforward and values ​​relationships. Since she's now practicing at the clinic, if we treat her with sincerity, and our relationship deepens over time, we can learn some of her unique treatment techniques."

Dr. Huang was deeply moved. He had only helped Nie Qianqian with a small favor today, and in return, he was able to learn how to treat tuberculosis.

He laughed and said, "The curator is right. Dr. Nie is indeed a benevolent doctor and worth befriending. The curator is indeed shrewd."

Director Zhang twitched his mustache and said, “How can the affairs of a doctor be called scheming? The path of a doctor is endless. I have spent my life seeking to continuously improve my medical skills in order to save lives and alleviate suffering.”

They probably didn't even realize that they had unknowingly changed how they addressed Nie Qianqian.

This conversation clearly indicated that Nie Qianqian was treated as an equal to them.
