Chapter 621: Chapter 621: Turn to the Master for Help

"Master, I... we..."

Xiong Yingxiong’s face turned red as he stammered, a grown man actually blushing like a young girl.

On the other hand, Xie Min, the girl, was much more straightforward. She calmly and confidently recounted her romantic involvement with Xiong Yingxiong.

After Xie Min had attempted to commit suicide in a lake due to heartbreak, Hero had rescued her and carried her to the infirmary for treatment. He stayed by her side ever since, continually comforting and counseling her. Over time, sparks flew between the two kindred spirits, and they fell for each other. Moreover, the relationship developed quickly. In less than a month, they were inseparable and intensely devoted to each other.

This was also why Xie Min was so determined to accompany Hero to seek justice from Dongfang Yue. She worried that Hero, upon seeing Dongfang Yue, might act recklessly and get into yet another conflict with him. With her present, she could intervene at crucial moments to dissuade Hero.

As for Fang Bai, to tell you the truth, Xie Min was not at ease. She worried that Hero’s master was not as powerful as Hero had described and would struggle to suppress Dongfang Yue and his friends.

"If you like each other, then treat each other well in the future. I hope to see you love and support each other for life, never to part. Remember, whatever difficulties you face, you can always come to me."

Fang Bai said with a smile.

Hearing this, Xie Min’s eyes lit up, her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but she was too bashful to speak.

Hero glanced at Xie Min, seeming to know what she wanted to say, scratched his head, and carefully said, "Um... Master... I... I..."

"Hmm? What is it?"

Fang Bai raised an eyebrow. Hero was usually a straightforward and decisive person, so this timidity was somewhat unusual for him.

"There’s something, I would like to ask for your help..."

Although the master had just suggested seeking his help in times of trouble, asking for help so soon after his suggestion made even the candid Hero somewhat embarrassed.

"Speak!"

Fang Bai said impatiently, "I’m your master, what’s with the formality? Beating around the bush isn’t your style, Hero!"

"Alright! I’ll say it!"

Hero looked at Xie Min, straightened his back, and said, "In two or three months, Min will be starting her internship, but her family isn’t well-off, and she doesn’t have any connections. She initially thought of using her family’s limited influence back in her small hometown to find some hospital to intern at. But I... I just can’t bear the thought of her being so far away from me..."

"Right, then she can intern at a hospital here in Yanjing instead, so the two of you don’t have to be apart and suffer the agony of longing. Xie Min, which hospital in Yanjing do you want to intern at?"

Before Hero could finish, Fang Bai had already understood what he meant and asked with a smile.

To Xie Min, how Fang Bai phrased his question made it seem like she could simply choose any hospital and he would make it happen. She couldn’t help but give a wry smile.

For Xie Min, the current situation wasn’t about where she wished to intern but whether any hospital would accept her. These days, without the right connections, it’s tough to get an internship—not just in Yanjing, but even finding a placement in a small hospital in her home county was incredibly difficult.

If it were possible, Xie Min, of course, would want to stay in Yanjing. That way, she could often see Hero and also learn more, but for her, hailing from an ordinary family in a small county, this dream seemed rather far-fetched.

Xie Min and Xiong Yingxiong had been in a relationship since they met, and she often heard him mention his mentor with fervent adoration. Every time he spoke of his mentor, Xiong Yingxiong’s face would light up with enthusiasm and reverence, as if his mentor was incredibly capable and impressive.

In the past, Xie Min had also heard that there was a young and highly skilled Professor Fang Bai in the traditional Chinese medicine department of their school. It was only after getting to know Xiong Yingxiong that she realized that this Professor Fang was his mentor.

Just now, when Fang Bai said that she could come to him if she had any difficulties, Xie Min was somewhat tempted and almost inquired if Fang Bai had any connections in the major hospitals of Yanjing. However, she immediately thought that it would not be appropriate to ask for such a favor upon their first meeting, so she held her tongue.

What she didn’t expect was that although she remained silent, Xiong Yingxiong couldn’t help but ask the question, which made her feel somewhat uneasy. She worried that Fang Bai might think less of her, or even suspect that her relationship with Xiong Yingxiong was not out of genuine affection for him, but rather for her own selfish reasons.

If Fang Bai were to entertain such a thought, Xie Min felt that her relationship with Xiong Yingxiong would become fraught with uncertainty.

Given Xiong Yingxiong’s fanatical reverence for Fang Bai, Xie Min was certain that if Fang Bai disapproved of her, advising them to no longer see each other, then Xiong Yingxiong, after some struggles, would very possibly heed his mentor’s advice and break up with her.

"Let’s... let’s not trouble Professor Fang..."

Xie Min twisted the hem of her clothes fiercely with her fingers, whispering and stealing glances at Professor Fang Bai’s profile, seated in the row ahead.

Having suffered the heavy blow of a past heartbreak, Xie Min treasured her current relationship with Xiong Yingxiong dearly. She didn’t want to lose this straightforward and generous boy who had once jumped into a lake to save her without a second thought.

Fang Bai seemed to detect the concern in Xie Min’s words, and said with a smile, "Xie Min, don’t overthink it! Helping you is no trouble at all. Hero may seem tough on the outside, but he’s quite fragile on the inside. All I hope is that you two get along well in the future, and avoid causing each other any more heartache."

Xiong Yingxiong and Xie Min exchanged a look and nodded in unison.

"What do you think of Yanjing Hospital?"

Fang Bai addressed Xie Min, "If you’re willing to go there, I can put in a good word for you."

"Yan... Yanjing Hospital?"

Xie Min’s eyes widened, her heart beating uncontrollably fast.

Yanjing Hospital was one of the top hospitals in Huaxia, and securing an internship there was something many medical students could only dream of—a dream Xie Min had never even dared to entertain.

"Yes. I have a friend who is currently doing an internship at Yanjing Hospital’s nursing department. If you go there, she could show you the ropes."

Without needing to look back at Xie Min’s expression, just hearing her suddenly quickened heartbeat, Fang Bai knew how much she longed for an opportunity at Yanjing Hospital.

The friend Fang Bai mentioned was naturally Su Linglong.

Despite being just an intern in the nursing department, not a single person treated Su Linglong merely as an intern. Putting aside the support from the Su Family behind her, the mere fact that Su Linglong was Fang Bai’s girlfriend meant that no one dared to treat her with anything less than full respect.

Fang Bai disliked dragging things out. Once he confirmed that Xie Min was willing to go to Yanjing Hospital, he immediately took out his mobile phone and made a call to Dean Zhang Chen of Yanjing Hospital.

Dean Zhang was very busy.

When Fang Bai called him, he was in his office, which was warmed by a heater, on the sofa with his secretary, both of them working overtime on "work" matters.
