'Maybe I should go see a traditional Chinese doctor?' Wen Ci wondered. It wasn't that she didn't trust Western medicine, just that at this point, the country's medical equipment wasn't very advanced. A traditional doctor could just check her pulse, saving her the trouble of all the complicated tests that came with Western medicine.
Before she knew it, the words slipped out, "Do you think I should go see a traditional Chinese doctor?"
The moment the words left her mouth, she remembered Huo Jingyuan was still on a video call with his aunt. Her cheeks flushed instantly, and bowing her head, she fled the study.
Huo Jingyuan watched her fleeing figure and began speaking quickly, "Aunt Huo, I just called to let you know we're safe. I'll bring the computer to Beijing later, and we can talk more then."
"Go ahead."
Huo Jingyuan didn't even have time to turn off the computer. He chased right after her, his voice gentle. "Darling, what are you running for?"
"It was so embarrassing."
