Chapter 195: Chapter 195: She Holds the First Place in His Heart
Seeing the patient’s pale complexion, Serena Summers nodded and comforted him: "It’s nothing serious, I’ll prescribe you some medicine, and you can just go collect it from the pharmacy."
The young man immediately nodded, took the prescription, and got up ready to leave, but then he hesitated and asked somewhat embarrassedly, "Um... Is the prescription for Chinese or Western medicine? Chinese medicine is really bitter, I have a hard time taking it."
"It’s Western medicine," Serena explained.
Serena knew the measure and was aware that some people couldn’t stand the taste of Chinese medicine.
Moreover, the process of preparing Chinese herbal medicine is very troublesome, so regular clinics prefer to brew the Chinese medicine, package it in vacuum packs, and patients just need to heat it up to consume.
Serena likes to make Chinese medicine into pills and add some fruit flavors that don’t affect the efficacy.
It neutralizes the bitterness of the Chinese medicine while saving the brewing process.
Two birds with one stone.
The man slowly exhaled a breath of relief, immediately thanked Serena, and then quickened his steps toward the place to get his medicine.
The residents of the town and countryside, hearing that the town hospital was offering free consultations, came in droves.
Recently, a torrential rain had occurred, and the flu was rampant, so the hospital specially distributed all the medicines brought by Edward Selwyn for free.
Any patient with symptoms like fever or a cold could get a box for free.
Seeing the patients leave satisfied with their medicines, the director was almost in tears.
Watching the man’s hasty retreat, Serena helplessly touched her forehead and scolded the man sitting beside her with a reproachful look, "You scared off my patient."
"I haven’t done anything. A mere glance is enough to scare him; not a bit of manliness," Lucas Shaw spoke with full disdain.
Serena’s lips twitched slightly, and for a moment she couldn’t find words to refute him.
His gaze was as cold and sharp as a knife, who wouldn’t be afraid?
But she didn’t continue to question, just lifted her eyes and waved towards the long line not far away, "Next."
The person at the front of the line was an elderly person with whitened hair, walking unsteadily with the support of a cane, step by step coming forward, sitting down on the chair, and shakily extending their wrist.
With age, all sorts of problems often occur with the body.
Serena quickly asked about the symptoms and then prescribed medication.
This time, Lucas Shaw was so quiet that he didn’t seem to be present unless someone deliberately paid attention to him, sitting there like he was just a puff of air.
But his posture was upright, displaying not a hint of impatience.
After the grandma left, a young man with black-framed glasses and excessively pale skin, his heavy bangs hanging over his forehead, looking somewhat nervous, approached.
He held a mobile phone in one hand and extended his other hand towards Serena, stumbling over his words, "I, I’ve got a bit of a headache."
Looking at his face, Serena slow-spokenly said: "Your body is very healthy, just lacking some exercise. As for the headache, it is probably due to staying up late. Make sure to rest properly."
She withdrew her hand, her tone calm as she looked at the person before her.
The hand holding the phone tightened a little, then gathering a lot of courage, he looked up at Serena, "Miss, can I add you on WeChat?"
He only looked for a moment before quickly lowering his eyes again, hastening to add, "Actually, I’m just worried in case I feel unwell in the future, so I can consult with you."
He seemed to be doing this for the first time, as his palms began to sweat.
In fact, he wasn’t the only one that wanted Serena Summers’ WeChat, but they had never worked up the courage; seeing someone do what they dared not, they immediately turned their gaze over.
Serena Summers looked at the QR code on the cellphone the person in front of her was holding up, finding it both amusing and helpless.
Before she could even open her mouth to respond, the person by her side moved.
He wrapped an arm around Serena Summers’ shoulders and pulled her into his embrace, forcefully declaring ownership, "I’m her husband, do you need me to add your WeChat? Whatever you want to chat with my wife about, you can tell me."
Lucas Shaw’s narrow and long phoenix eyes slightly narrowed, his hawk-like sharp gaze shooting straight at the young man.
The young man inexplicably felt a sense of danger, his back suddenly turning cold.
He glanced at Lucas Shaw, then turned his gaze back to Serena Summers, seeing that she wasn’t resisting Lucas Shaw’s embrace, and instantly understood the relationship between the two.
Realizing what he had just done, his face couldn’t help but turn red.
He abruptly stood up from his chair and took his phone to leave, "I’m sorry, I didn’t know you already have..."
Serena Summers didn’t catch the last few words, but she could guess.
Watching the man’s panicked escape, Serena Summers couldn’t help but laugh, "What are you getting jealous over? You scared away my patient!"
"That one just now is what kind of patient? He just wanted to take the opportunity to add your WeChat." Lucas Shaw hugged Serena Summers even tighter, his icy gaze coldly swept over those who were queuing up, with a hint of warning.
Those who had harbored little schemes were instantly frightened, hastily averting their gaze, wishing they could find a hole to crawl into to avoid being seen by Lucas Shaw.
Serena Summers raised an eyebrow, curiously asking, "You understand this so well? Have you used this method to add other girls’ WeChat before?"
Lucas Shaw paused for a moment, then pulled out his phone from his suit pocket and handed it to her, "There are no messy people in my phone."
Serena Summers flipped through the phone and saw that both the WeChat and contacts were all people she knew.
In there were the Shaw family members, his two aides, and... her.
In the contacts, the letter "A" was specially added in front of her name, placed at the very top of the list.
Looking at the phone screen, Serena Summers felt a little thrill of happiness, her lips also curling up.
Her fair and slender fingers tapped on her own name, "Who taught you this?"
"Brandon Reese."
Lucas Shaw’s expression was indifferent as he opened WeChat to reveal her profile picture pinned right at the top, "He said girls care most about their position in the hearts of their boyfriends and husbands."
Serena Summers’ eyelashes fluttered slightly, meaning that, in his heart, she was number one.
The patients waiting to be seen were stunned by this sudden display of public affection, and some elders couldn’t help but laugh out, "Young lady, your husband really cares about you!"
Feeling the stare of so many eyes on her, Serena Summers suddenly felt a bit embarrassed, her cheeks slowly blushing a fiery hot red, like perfectly ripened shrimp.
She turned her head and glanced at the man, expressionless but with laughter in his eyes, her heart warming, "Mhm, he is very good."
At this moment, an elderly lady came forward and sat down, resting her wrist on the table and chatted away, "Young lady, your medical skills are so good, and you’ve found such a good husband, you’re really lucky! If you weren’t already taken, I’d want to introduce my son to you!"
