Chapter 210 - Treating the foot
Chapter 210 of "City's Best Divine Doctor" kicks off revealing: It was raining outside.Ye Qiu was riding his electric bike back, and he would definitely... Find out whatâs next!
It was raining outside.
Ye Qiu was riding his electric bike back, and he would definitely get drenched.
Now, Zhang Yuehong couldnât let Ye Qiu stay, so she went to find a raincoat for him to wear on his ride back.
âAuntie, itâs fine if I get wet.â
âHow can you say that?
What if you catch a cold?â
Zhang Yuehong made Ye Qiu wear the raincoat before letting him ride home.
As Ye Qiu headed out, the rain fell harder and harder.
However, with the electric bike, it wouldnât take long.
He figured he would get home quickly.
Suddenly, he saw several police cars parked at the intersection ahead.
Ye Qiu knew there must have been an accident here, but he didnât stop to look.
As he was about to leave, he saw Zhao Ruxue walking toward him.
A few days ago, when Zhao Ruxue bumped into Ye Qiu, she had told him to come find her.
Ye Qiu had seemed to forget, and Zhao Ruxue hadnât seen him these past few days.
Tonight, there was a sudden accident here, and she came over with the officers on duty.
âOfficer Zhao, so itâs you!â
With the other person wearing a raincoat and their face covered, Ye Qiu didnât recognize her.
He didnât expect her to recognize him first.
âThere was a minor incident here, itâs already handled.
Iâm about to get off work and head home, do you have some time?â
It was so late, and Ye Qiu didnât expect Zhao Ruxue to invite him to her house.
Ye Qiu knew there was no moonlight tonight, so cultivation was impossible.
He said, âYes, I have time.â
âGreat, you can give me a ride back.â
Normally, Zhao Ruxue drove a police car, but now her colleague needed it.
She could just ride Ye Qiuâs electric bike home.
As the officers over there looked on curiously, they saw Zhao Ruxue already on the rear rack of Ye Qiuâs electric bike.
Ye Qiu had been to Zhao Ruxueâs house before and knew which neighborhood she lived in.
He rode toward that neighborhood.
At the gate, the security guard was curious about Ye Qiuâs identity.
Ye Qiu and Zhao Ruxue removed their raincoats, and once the guard recognized them, he opened the small gate to let them in.
The last time, Ye Qiu had come over on a shabby bike, which had already surprised these guards.
Unexpectedly, now in the dead of night, Zhao Ruxue brought that same young man, now on an electric bike.
This left the guards baffled.
As Ye Qiu and Zhao Ruxue went inside, they parked the electric bike at the buildingâs entrance, locked it, and got off.
Ye Qiu didnât expect the rain to get heavier.
He wondered if it would stop by tomorrow morning.
If it didnât, he might not be able to pick up Liu Lingxiu for school tomorrow.
When they reached the buildingâs entrance, they took off their raincoats and shook off the water.
Ye Qiu noticed his clothes were somewhat wet, his hair was wet, and his imitation Adidas shoes were also soaked.
When Zhao Ruxue brought Ye Qiu upstairs, she took out her key to open the door.
Once inside, Ye Qiu took off his shoes.
Zhao Ruxueâs hair and clothes were already wet from handling the case earlier.
Now, having Ye Qiu over to treat her illness, she decided to take a shower and change into clean clothes first.
âIâll take a shower and change clothes first.
You can dry your hair for now.â
Normally, no one else came over here.
Zhao Ruxue felt at ease, and as for Ye Qiu, she wasnât worried at all about what he might do.
Besides the last time when Ye Qiu treated her, Zhao Ruxue, who trained in military boxing and Muay Thai, really didnât have to worry about ordinary criminals getting close to her.
Moreover, she knew Ye Qiu wasnât the type of person she initially imagined.
Otherwise, she wouldnât dare to bring him over so late at night.
As Zhao Ruxue took her clothes to the bathroom for a shower, Ye Qiu used the towel she gave him to dry his hair.
He noticed the towel had a pleasant scent.
He didnât know what Zhao Ruxue typically used it for, but it was definitely used before.
When Zhao Ruxue finished her shower and came out, it was already 11:30 PM.
Ye Qiu worried his parents might be concerned since he hadnât returned so late, so he called his sister, Ye Xue.
Chen Fang, Ye Xue, and Ye Weidong were watching TV in the living room, waiting for Ye Qiu to come back.
That afternoon, when the fine was fully refunded, Ye Weidong was very pleased.
He knew his son was getting better and better and was eager to share this news with Ye Qiu, but now, he hadnât come back so late.
It was also raining heavily outside.
Ye Weidong and Chen Fang worried Ye Qiu might have trouble riding.
âYe Qiu, where are you?â
Seeing it was Ye Qiu who called, Ye Xue quickly asked.
âSis, Iâm at a patientâs house, preparing to treat her.
I might return a bit late.â
Hearing Ye Qiu was treating someone and would return late, Ye Xue felt relieved.
She didnât ask which patient Ye Qiu was with, but knowing he wasnât staying over at Liu Lingxiuâs house made her feel much better.
Ye Qiu hung up the phone, and Zhao Ruxue, now dressed in pajamas and out of the bathroom, didnât have the same energetic police look but appeared more gentle and beautiful, with a particularly attractive demeanor.
âWho did you call just now?â
Zhao Ruxue asked.
âMy sister.â
Now that Zhao Ruxue had finished showering, except for her slightly damp hair, everything looked different.
Earlier outside, after a full dayâs work, her police uniform was already sweaty and uncomfortable, and then she got soaked by the rain, feeling sticky and unpleasant.
But now, after a shower, the fatigue and odor were washed away.
Last time, when Ye Qiu treated her, it was a straightforward treatment.
Zhao Ruxue found that her years-long menstrual pain had remarkably been cured, with no issues left.
Additionally, her hands, once calloused, had entirely smoothed out to soft, white, and elastic hands thanks to his treatment.
Now, she wanted Ye Qiu to treat her legs next.
If he could remove the calluses on her legs and make them as smooth as her hands, it would be a significant change for Zhao Ruxue.
âYour menstrual pain didnât return?â
âNo.â
âSo what do you need treatment for now?â
âMy feet, like you told me.â
When Ye Qiu looked, Zhao Ruxueâs feet seemed pale and delicate, like jade.
However, her soles were different.
Due to Zhao Ruxueâs profession and frequent training since college, her feet had developed very thick calluses and even had a certain odor.
This smell wasnât like athleteâs foot, but having worked long hours wearing work shoes, Zhao Ruxue found it somewhat unpleasant.
This might have been a problem from her college days, as she certainly didnât have it in high school.
