After Paige introduced himself, the girl didn’t respond.
Instead, she walked straight to a seat and sat down, clearly having no intention of introducing herself to the two of them.
Paige and Luna Axton exchanged a knowing glance. They didn’t look at the dical cases either, each finding a place to sit and wait.
After a long silence in the Vermilion Bird Hall, soone finally arrived.
The newcor had a rosy complexion and a lovely, smiling curve to her lips, revealing a set of healthy, white teeth.
She stood there with a gentle and proper posture, exuding an exceptional warmth.
"All three students are here. I’m May Ford, and I’m in charge of external affairs at Concordia dical Hall."
"I’m also responsible for your internship. If you have any non-dical issues, you can communicate directly with ."
After she finished speaking, her gaze swept over the three of them one by one.
When none of them had any questions, she proceeded to arrange the subsequent internship tasks and points of notice.
Luna Axton was assigned to Academician Theodore Frost. She picked up the white coat she was given and prepared to find the changing room.
"You." The girl blocked her path. "Switch supervising ntors with ."
The girl tilted her chin up, looking down her nose at Luna Axton, making her demand as if it were her due.
Luna Axton thought she was hearing things, her cool eyes staring at the girl.
The girl t her gaze haughtily.
Luna Axton said, "Why don’t you go tell Ms. Ford yourself?"
"It’ll be easier for to tell her if you agree first."
’So that’s how it is. Between Ms. Ford and , she figured I was the easier one to talk to.’
’As long as I agree, the girl could then claim that I wanted to switch but was too embarrassed to ask, so she was just doing it on my behalf.’
She had been fed this kind of line before during her part-ti jobs.
A sarcastic smile touched the corner of Luna Axton’s lips. "I don’t agree."
With that, she turned to leave, clutching her white coat.
As she brushed past the girl, a hand grabbed her forearm.
Fortunately, she wasn’t walking quickly, so she remained steady despite being pulled.
"What right do you have to refuse? I’m Eliana Yates."
Paige frowned. "Be gentle. Can’t you see she’s pregnant?"
He hadn’t intended to get involved in matters between won.
But having spoken with Luna Axton earlier, he thought she might be a useful contact to have in the future.
Luna Axton’s cold gaze fell on the girl’s hand. Thinking that they would have to work together for so ti, she didn’t want to make the atmosphere too tense.
"First, you are very rude. Second, I don’t know you. Third, the internship has a rotation system."
After speaking, she twisted her arm, pulled her forearm free, and strode away.
Eliana Yates glared furiously in the direction she had gone.
’In all her life, this was the first ti anyone had ever called her rude.’
’Manners?’
’She was born not needing to be polite to anyone.’
’She was Eliana Yates! Her surna was Yates!’
"What’s her na?" Eliana Yates turned and asked Paige.
Paige raised an eyebrow and spread his hands. "I don’t know."
’He had also wanted to be chosen by Academician Theodore Frost first. That would have been an affirmation of his abilities.’
’The reality was, Academician Frost chose a student from the clinical dicine departnt, not him, whose major in traditional dicine was a direct match.’
’Why was she chosen?’
Paige was also curious.
’What he couldn’t understand was how she was chosen despite being pregnant.’
’Was it because she was just that outstanding?’
’And then there was this girl, Eliana Yates. Arrogant and condescending, she was clearly a spoiled and overbearing person at a glance.’
’He had never heard her na ntioned at any of the school’s award ceremonies or on the winners’ podiums.’
’Eliana Yates... did she really place in the top three of her grade on the final exams?’
These questions swirled in Paige’s mind as he walked and put on his white coat.
The mont he saw Ethan Frost, he put on a smile and said respectfully:
"Hello, Assistant Frost. I’m a student from the TCM departnt, Paige."
He acted this way even though he knew Assistant Frost probably rembered him for his excellent academic and moral standing.
But he still maintained a humble and courteous deanor.
Ethan Frost smiled gently. "Rowe, have a seat across from ."
In another consultation room, Luna Axton was also sitting across from Academician Theodore Frost.
In front of her were a clinical record book and a prescription pad.
Academician Theodore Frost wasn’t used to computers. All his dical cases were handwritten, then organized, proofread, and published by Ethan Frost.
While Academician Frost conducted the consultations, Luna Axton took notes in her book.
During this ti, she would also ponder the appropriate principles, thods, formulas, and dicines for the patient.
"Luna, a modified Blood Stasis-Dispelling Decoction."
Academician Frost gave the answer, which was exactly what Luna had been thinking. A smile appeared on her face.
"Remove the Platycodon, add Cyperus, Motherwort, and Lycopus."
Luna Axton quickly wrote down the various herbs for the decoction on the prescription pad from mory.
"Twelve grams of peach kernel..." Academician Frost stated the herbs and their dosages, which also gave Luna Axton ti to check and correct her work.
Once she had written everything down, she handed it to Academician Frost for his signature so the patient could go pay and pick up the dicine.
This process repeated itself until eleven-thirty, when the number of patients finally started to dwindle.
"Luna, go stretch your legs. It’ll be ti for lunch soon."
She was completely engrossed in her work. Doing a job she loved and gaining knowledge, she didn’t feel tired at all.
On the contrary, the morning of recording work left her with a faint sense of excitent.
"Okay, Academician Frost."
After she left, a familiar patient spoke up and asked Theodore Frost, "Is that a new disciple of yours?"
Theodore Frost laughed. "I could never take on such a brilliant disciple. She’s a student from Valoria dical College with excellent grades, here for her vacation internship."
"I could tell. Her fundantals are solid, she knows how to think on her feet, and she even takes notes in a little book. She’s a good student."
He had seen her clearly from the outside while waiting for his number to be called.
At his age, he could tell what a person was made of with just one look.
That young lady will definitely have a great future.
Luna Axton ca out of a bathroom stall just as Eliana Yates was also washing her hands.
She acted as if she hadn’t seen Eliana Yates, squeezing out so soap, lathering her hands, and then rinsing off the foam.
"Those are rhinestones, aren’t they? Not all diamonds are better when they’re bigger."
Luna Axton ignored her words. Her gaze fell on her, and she pulled her lips into a humorless smile that didn’t reach her eyes.
The next second, the smile vanished, and she turned and walked away.
"HUFF..." Eliana Yates’s face suddenly darkened. She yelled at Luna Axton’s back, "Hey, what’s that supposed to an?"
’How could soone be so shaless? I was kindly reminding her, and she acts so high and mighty. Wearing fake diamonds and still acting so arrogant.’
Eliana Yates pulled out her phone and looked at the footage she had fild. She was going to edit today’s video log by noon.
"I’ll show everyone just how shaless this woman is. Getting pregnant while she’s still a student, working with a big belly... and for an internship salary of 2,000 yuan. I really pity her. How incompetent must her husband be to make his pregnant wife go out and earn a living!"
Eliana Yates typed furiously, a holier-than-thou caption already taking shape in her phone’s notes app.
She was pleased with herself. ’Look at , what a kind person I am.’
"If I add hashtags like #unmarried and #feminism, the traffic will definitely be great."
