Ye Nai tidied up a bit and went outside to wait.
Several more patients arrived, but they were all ordinary folks, and nobody was willing to let a Reserve First Aider practice on them, so everyone could only wait patiently.
The two who went for X-rays ca back, and just like Ye Nai said, they both had minor branch-like fractures. After getting their wounds stitched up, they still had to go back for splints, otherwise, with their tendency to fight while drunk, they might even end up with crooked faces if the fractures didn’t heal correctly.
After Ye Nai finished stitching their wounds, the even and neat end result had the examiners wondering if she had grown up in a clinic that allowed her to practice from a young age.
Of course, her family didn’t. None of the children on her parents’ side had studied dicine, and only now that she had beco a Beginner First Aider did she have a marginal connection to the dical field.
The score was no surprise; the examiner entered a perfect score in the system and then submitted her results. Ye Nai sat in the hospital for half an hour, checking her newly minted electronic First Aider certificate. The paper certificate would be sent by express delivery.
After linking the electronic certificate to her Awakener account, Ye Nai’s examination journey was completely finished. She left the hospital amidst the envious stares of other exam candidates.
Cleaning the wounds and incidentally discovering a facial bone fracture—these test-takers admitted they didn’t have such skills. They all hoped and prayed that the patients assigned to them would only have superficial skin wounds, so they wouldn’t encounter situations that they couldn’t handle, otherwise, the practical examination ti could drag on indefinitely.
Ye Nai brought out her electric bike at the hospital entrance and rode to her younger sister’s elentary school, arriving just in ti for dismissal.
"Big sister!"
Her little sister, now renad Yu Jiao following the divorce and living with their mother, happily ran out of the school gate with her backpack, throwing herself into Ye Nai’s arms.
"Get on, guide , I’ll take you ho."
Yu Jiao quickly sat on the back seat, guided Ye Nai, and in ten minutes, they were back at the apartnt complex where they were currently living.
The sa type of high-rise residential complex, only the floors were shorter, all 30-story buildings, with Yu Qing and her daughter Yu Jiao living on the 18th floor.
Yu Jiao, holding Ye Nai’s hand, opened the door and entered the ho.
In the center was the living room. To the left were two adjacent south-facing rooms with a connected balcony, and to the right was the open kitchen, which led to the bathroom; there was also a window inside the bathroom.
The layout was just that simple with satisfying lighting.
"This is a nice place, huh? Open the doors on both sides, and even the living room won’t be dark."
"Yeah, mom liked it at first sight. It was lucky she didn’t hesitate. When we were signing the contract, there were others asking about this apartnt."
"It’s pretty good, more comfortable than where we lived before."
"Yeah, much more comfortable. I have my own bed, my own desk, and I can roll around as much as I like."
"How about mom? How does she feel about life now?"
"She feels good too. It’s just the two of us at ho now, there’s much less housework and stuff to deal with. Every night, we study together." The younger sister tugged at Ye Nai’s hand, "Big sis, let tell you, mom’s temper has improved a lot, she doesn’t get angry as often as before."
"That’s good to hear, divorce was indeed the right choice."
While saying this, Ye Nai took out the prepared Mutant Beast at and placed it on the dining table in the living room.
"Big sister, what’s this?"
"The Mutant Beast at I promised to bring for you to eat."
"Really?!" The little sister imdiately tried to reach into the bag to get the al box, "Is it really Mutant Beast at?"
"Go wash your hands. Did you wash them when you entered the house?" Ye Nai swatted away her hand.
"No."
The little sister stuck out her tongue, obediently went to wash her hands, and then ca back to the dining table and took everything out of the bag.
"Wow, there are four dishes!"
"Right, you and Mom should eat it, and the dicine on the side is for you two just in case. Also, make sure to read the printed precautions several tis and morize them."
Ye Nai’s little sister looked at the densely packed pages and didn’t want to read them at all.
"How about Big Sister just tells directly? I can definitely rember it."
"Don’t be greedy, absolutely do not be greedy. Mutant Beast at’s energy will trigger an ordinary person’s appetite, making them want to eat more and more without stopping, and in a matter of minutes, one could overconsu and end up rolling on the floor because they can’t digest the energy, eventually landing in the hospital."
"These four portions are four different kinds of at, enough for you two to eat for several days. If you can’t finish it, throw it away, don’t force yourselves. Going to the hospital isn’t worth it. The dicine to dissipate excess energy is very expensive, and the dical bills could eat up Mom’s entire monthly salary. If your condition were more serious, one month’s salary wouldn’t even cover it."
"That won’t happen; we’ll definitely finish it. Mom wouldn’t throw it away."
Ye Nai’s little sister was young and didn’t understand Mutant Beast at. She knew only that it was very expensive and tasty, and although Ye Nai told her to throw it away if she couldn’t finish it, she wouldn’t, but their mother definitely wouldn’t want to discard it.
"Forget it, for safety’s sake, bring two bowls over. I’ll divide it for you. I’ll take the rest back with ."
In the end, Ye Nai left enough Mutant Beast at for them to eat over two days, four als in total, and also gave her little sister a box of drinks, biscuits, bread, and a snack gift bag.
Yu Jiao happily stacked these items along the living room wall.
"Is Big Sister going to stay for dinner tonight?"
"Sure, just cook so rice. I’ll order a few dishes for delivery."
Yu Jiao went to wash rice and cook, while Ye Nai tid her order so it would arrive when their mom got off work. When Yu Qing walked in through the door, she saw her eldest daughter sitting on the couch with her feet up, directing her younger daughter how to play video gas.
"Ye Nai?!" Yu Qing stepped in, changing her shoes while closing the front door with her other hand, "When did you get here?"
"Ca to the city to buy so clothes for the changing season and thought I’d check in on you guys, brought so food with ."
Ye Nai raised her head, gesturing towards the dining table.
The little sister paused the ga and dragged her mom to the dining table.
"Mom, look, the Mutant Beast at Big Sister brought!"
"Ah?! Mutant Beast at?" Yu Qing looked at the two bowls on the table. "This is Mutant Beast at? Just this little bit?"
"Four different kinds of Mutant Beast at, for you to try."
"Mom, you must read this. This amount of at is all we can digest."
The little sister hurriedly stuffed the precautions and the box of dicine into Yu Qing’s hands.
"Oh, alright, I’ll look at them."
Yu Qing skimd through the instructions, then looked at the two bowls of at on the table and didn’t think there was any shortage at all.
It was normal for ordinary people trying Mutant Beast at for the first ti to manage only a few pieces, anything more would be wasteful.
"Ah, you ca to the city and went out of your way to bring this for us."
"Mutant Beast at can strengthen the body for ordinary people, especially children. Eating it regularly can increase the probability of Awakening."
"...Really?!" Hearing entirely new information, Yu Qing slid next to Ye Nai with agility she’d never shown before, "Mutant Beast at is good for kids?"
"Don’t get too excited. It just relatively increases the probability a little. Wealthy people all do this; otherwise, why would rich families have such high Awakening rates?"
"That’s true." Yu Qing looked at the bowls on the table. "Leave it all for your sister."
"Don’t do that; it’s for both of you. Mutant Beast at is ant to be eaten fresh from cooking, ward only once at most. If ward too often, its nutritional elents dissipate while the energy remains. Awakeners would buy dried Mutant Beast at processed through many stages, which makes excellent rations, but ordinary people can’t even touch a bite of that."
