Chapter 60

Zhu Lin got her wallet back, first went to the repair stall to settle the balance and "redeem" Wei Ming's old bike, and then rode to the Peking Union Medical College Hospital. The nearest hospital was the Union Hospital.

"Hello, may I ask if a young man just sent a pregnant woman to the hospital? He is tall and looks very spirited."

The police officer at the station told her that the robber had frightened a pregnant woman while fleeing, and Wei Ming sent the pregnant woman to the hospital immediately after subduing him.

"Oh, yes, yes, the pregnant woman is a bit old, and there is a little boy with her, right?"

It matched. Then the other party led Zhu Lin upstairs.

The pregnant woman was undergoing an examination, and Wei Ming was waiting outside, with a little boy of five or six years old who wasn't crying or making a fuss beside him.

Seeing Zhu Lin arrive, Wei Ming was surprised: "How did you know I was here?"

"I went to the police station and heard that you came to the hospital, so I guessed it must be here."

Wei Ming: "Did you get your wallet back?"

"I got it, thank you, Comrade Wei Ming," Zhu Lin said sincerely, and then asked, "You didn't get hurt, did you?"

"I'm fine, I just don't know how the lady inside is doing." Wei Ming was worried. The lady seemed to be bleeding. If it weren't for him chasing the person, she wouldn't have been frightened and suffered such an unprovoked disaster.

But lady, you really are something. An older pregnant woman, with only a few days until her due date, why are you still out wandering around?

Wei Ming said: "Comrade Zhu Lin, I'll keep an eye on things here. You haven't bought your things yet, right? You can go back to the department store first."

Zhu Lin shook her head: "This matter has to do with me, how can I just walk away? I'll stay and see the situation. After all, I'm also a medical worker. By the way, has her husband been notified?"

Wei Ming pointed to the little boy: "The little friend has already called his father's unit."

This child hadn't even started elementary school yet, only a year or two older than Xizi, but he was calm and composed when things happened, could remember his parents' unit phone number, and expressed himself fluently. There really is no harm without comparison.

However, the little friend's father seemed to be in some confidential unit, and he couldn't talk to his father directly. He didn't know when he would be able to come.

Just as they were waiting, they suddenly heard a "rumbling" sound from their stomachs.

Wei Ming looked at Zhu Lin.

Zhu Lin looked at the little friend.

The little friend looked at Wei Ming.

Alright, it was a rumbling trio; all three were hungry.

To come to the city, the three of them had rushed over from Haidian and Fengtai early in the morning. They didn't eat much in the morning, and now it was already almost one o'clock.

Zhu Lin stood up and said: "Why don't I see if there's anything to eat outside, and buy something to pad our stomachs first."

Just as she finished speaking, she saw several girls in white coats walking over, each holding a lunch box.

The leader among them looked at Wei Ming and said: "Are you Comrade Wei Ming?"

Wei Ming stood up and said: "Yes, who are you?"

Several girls laughed and started chattering.

"It really is you!"

"What a coincidence!"

"Did you perform another act of bravery?"

The leader explained the situation.

It turned out they were students majoring in medicine at the Peking Union Medical College.

Because the school lacked teachers for basic courses, after coordination by relevant departments, the basic courses for their grade were undertaken by the Biology Department of Peking University.

So they usually went to Peking University for classes, had seen Wei Ming standing guard at the Nanmen, and had heard of Wei Ming's many deeds.

Just now, a sister said she seemed to have seen the former Nanmen God, now the Patrol King, and then they found him.

Wei Ming and Zhu Lin also explained the situation to them.

"You really performed another act of bravery!" The girls were surprised, their eyes full of admiration and worship.

Wei Ming just scratched his head helplessly: "Isn't this a bad luck constitution? I always encounter criminal events when I go out."

"No way, it's clearly the criminals who have a bad luck constitution for meeting you, the nemesis of criminals!"

"That's right, you're really great!"

The girls praised him a few times, and then offered their own lunch boxes, letting the three of them eat first.

Unable to refuse their kindness, the three of them had a simple hospital meal.

And while eating, Zhu Lin remembered a very important thing. Her plan for today was to go on a date and eat with her partner after buying the tape recorder!

But now, more than an hour had passed since their agreed time.

"Comrade Wei Ming, can I ask you a question? Don't laugh at me." Zhu Lin said.

"I won't, go ahead."

"What did you mean by 'Wei Sheng holding onto a bridge pillar' when we first met, and saying I was a modern-day Wei Sheng?"

Wei Ming overestimated the knowledge and cultural level of this generation. Zhu Lin was busy with movements during the age when she should have been in school, and then became a literary soldier, so it was understandable that she didn't know.

"Wei Sheng was an ancient person. Legend has it that he made an appointment to meet a woman at a bridge. He waited for a long time, but the woman didn't come. Later, the water rose, but Wei Sheng refused to leave, and eventually died holding onto the bridge pillar. So Wei Sheng became a synonym for keeping promises in ancient times..." Wei Ming explained the allusion simply. Not only was Zhu Lin listening carefully, but the little friend was also listening.

Having learned new knowledge, Zhu Lin stood up and said she was going out to make a phone call.

She found a public phone outside and called the unit where her partner was.

Sure enough, he hadn't waited for her and had already returned to the unit.

"You really aren't Wei Sheng."

"Who? Who is Wei Sheng?" The other party seemed very nervous, because it sounded like a man's name.

!

"No one, just an ancient person." Zhu Lin couldn't be bothered to explain.

The other party didn't pursue it, but asked cautiously: "Then why didn't you come? Do you have any opinions about me?"

"It has nothing to do with you, I just encountered some things, I can't make it today, let's make another appointment another day."

"Oh, alright then, take care of yourself. If you're not feeling well, remember to drink more hot water."

Hanging up the phone, Zhu Lin sighed softly. Because she was no longer young, under the pressure of her parents, she had been on many blind dates and finally met this worker whose personality was okay and who looked decent.

Her parents liked workers. Although they were a university professor and a doctor, they felt that workers were safer and could hedge the risks of their scholar family.

Her parents were satisfied, and she didn't dislike him, so they just kept talking. Maybe after talking for a long time, there would be love, and they could naturally get married.

Returning to the obstetrics department, Zhu Lin saw a middle-aged man talking to Wei Ming, and the boy Xiaoyong from before was holding the other party's hand.

Zhu Lin breathed a sigh of relief. The family members had finally arrived!

Wei Ming called Zhu Lin over and introduced her to the senior engineer in front of them. It turned out he was an engineer.

The senior engineer also expressed his gratitude to Zhu Lin and insisted on getting the phone numbers of their units, preparing to thank them again after the child was born.

The matter here was resolved. Wei Ming stretched his waist: "Comrade Zhu Lin, you go first, I'll go see the doctor."

"Ah, are you hurt?"

Wei Ming: "Small matter, I twisted my shoulder while fighting with that guy. Just rub some safflower oil on it."

Zhu Lin: "I'll go with you."

"I'm really fine."

"That won't do either. I'll go with you. You have to take me back to the department store later; my bike is still there."

"Oh, I see. Alright then."

The doctor saw the two and asked Zhu Lin: "What is your relationship to the patient?"

"I'm his sister." Zhu Lin could now lie through her teeth.

Wei Ming was very surprised to hear this. I didn't expect you to be such a Queen of the Daughter Kingdom!

Hearing her say this, the doctor simply said: "Young man, take off your shirt."

Huh? Zhu Lin panicked, but still pretended to be calm.

Wei Ming obediently took off his shirt, bare-chested.

Fortunately, he had been eating meat at almost every meal for more than a month, plus the physical training from Brother Feng and Seeing Biaozi, this physique didn't look bad at all, and could even be said to be very beautiful—so beautiful that Zhu Lin didn't dare to look.

Wei Ming: You should look. If you open your eyes and look at me, I don't believe your eyes will be empty!

The doctor said it was a small problem: "I'll rub some medicine on you."

After rubbing on the pungent medicine, the doctor also had to help him dissolve the medicinal effect through pressing and rubbing.

Just as he was rubbing, someone suddenly came from outside and called the doctor out for a moment.

The doctor stood up: "Patient's sister, just follow the technique I just used. You rub it for him first; if the medicinal effect doesn't dissolve, it's equivalent to rubbing it in vain."

Zhu Lin: "..."
