Chapter 96 Unseen Characters

When Xia Zhi was about to return to the Shen family, Bai Huaye suggested that she stay at the Bai family's place, as it would be more convenient. However, Xia Zhi politely declined as soon as she said it. Bai Yulan's illness was not urgent, and she wanted to perform more surgeries in the next few days.

When the dean found out, he was very happy and immediately filled her schedule for the next day.

Xia Zhi looked at the flowing schedule and nodded in satisfaction.

Over the next few days, Xia Zhi performed ten high-risk surgeries and also completed a medical seminar amidst her busy schedule.

"Dr. Xia is truly a role model for us all. We old folks have really benefited a lot from him these past few days."

"That's right, Dr. Xia. I've already had someone take the design blueprints to modify those scalpels you mentioned."

"Dr. Xia, when will you come next?"

A group of people lingered around her, reluctant to part with her. They really wanted Dr. Xia to work at their hospital so that they could not only improve their medical skills but also save more lives.

"We'll see how things go next time," Xia Zhi said with a smile. There are many doctors here, but only a handful of doctors are available for border defense.

"Xia, come with me." Lin Jiasheng looked at her.

Xia Zhi nodded and followed him to his office.

After she came in, Lin Jiasheng poured her a glass of water. "Xia, how about this: you can come to the hospital to give a lecture sometime, and we'll pay you. Don't worry about the scalpel; we won't treat you unfairly either."

Xia Zhi stroked her chin, "That's a good option. But Dean, I don't know when I'll be able to come again."

Lin Jiasheng waved his hand, "It's okay, just remember to come to the hospital when you arrive."

These old folks need time to process this too.

Xia Zhi smiled and stood up, shaking hands with him. "Alright then, we won't need the scalpel. I won't accept money for contributing to medicine."

She only added some precision and details; it was all copied verbatim, so she was really embarrassed to accept the money.

Lin Jiasheng looked at her approvingly; this child had a broad vision and a promising future.

"Okay, then remember to come when you come to the city."

"it is good."

Lin Jiasheng escorted her to the hospital entrance. Xia Zhi took a deep breath, put her hands in her pockets, and glanced at the department store next door. She hadn't been to a shopping mall in all these days.

She turned and walked inside. The shopping mall here was three times larger than the one in town, with a dazzling array of goods, and even the clothes in the clothing stores were more fashionable.

After looking around, Xia Zhi went inside to buy some clothes for herself and Lu Beiting.

"Daddy, the clothes here aren't as nice as the ones abroad, they're too ordinary."

"Alright, Zhuzhu, stop fooling around. You'll be going to the border in a few days, and these clothes will be enough for you there."

Hearing the girl's coquettish voice and the man's doting tone, Xia Zhi couldn't help but take a few more curious glances.

In the distance, a girl with curly hair, wearing a trendy princess dress and delicate high heels, looked just like a little princess, playfully shaking the man's arm.

The man beside her was dressed in a custom-made suit, exuding an air of refinement. He looked at his daughter with doting eyes, while his gentle and dignified wife stood beside him, her eyes filled with helplessness and affection.

How wonderful!

Xia Zhi was about to look away when she saw the man's face clearly. She trembled and couldn't help but murmur, "Dad."

After regaining his senses, he realized it was unlikely. His father had died long ago, and the man in front of him exuded an air of nobility, not at all like someone from the border region.

Could he be her father's twin brother? After hesitating for a few seconds, Xia Zhi mustered her courage and stepped forward.

"Excuse me, may I ask what this gentleman's surname is?"

Qiao Haisheng looked at the girl who appeared in front of him, sized her up for a few seconds, and said gently, "My surname is Qiao, what's wrong?"

Xia Zhi's hopes were dashed. Seeing the questioning looks from the others, she quickly apologized, "Sorry, I mistook you for someone else."

Qiao Sheng looked at the woman in front of her and immediately snorted coldly. Then she hugged Qiao Haisheng's arm tightly, her expression full of declaration.

Xia Zhi apologized again, "I'm so sorry."

"It's alright." Qiao Haisheng looked at Qiao Sheng gently. "Hurry up and choose."

Xia Zhi was stunned for a few seconds. She remembered that when she was little, her father loved her very much.

Xia Zhi tactfully stepped aside and picked out clothes, but her gaze couldn't help but drift towards the family of three.

[Host, this is the female lead, Xia Zhi. However, in the original book, the female lead didn't come to the city this early. Our arrival may have caused a series of mishaps.]

Qiao Sheng snorted coldly, "This is the female lead? Are you guys out of your minds? She's not even as good-looking as me."

[Host, the female lead possesses an indomitable spirit and an unwillingness to accept her fate; moreover, she is very good at making money.]

A hint of disdain flashed in Qiao Sheng's eyes. Make money? Pshaw, what is she without the protagonist's halo?

[Host, the main purpose of this trip to the border is to win over the male lead. However, the system suggests that you don't let Qiao Haisheng go with you, as the female lead seems to have started to suspect something.]

Hmph, I know.

Qiao Sheng never expected that she would transmigrate into a book after waking up. It turned out that she was neither the female lead nor the villain, but a character who had never appeared in the book before. To her surprise, her father was actually the female lead's biological father, who was rescued by his current wife after an explosion more than ten years ago.

He also suffered from amnesia, but Qiao Haisheng was truly capable. Within five years, he had established himself in Beijing and gradually climbed the ranks to become a wealthy businessman. He was also a loving husband and father.

Her purpose in coming to the border was simply to stir up trouble. After all, she was a transmigrator with a system, so how could she not have her own shining moments?

After Qiao Sheng noticed that Xia Zhi kept looking in their direction, he became even more attentive to his family.

Xia Zhi sighed, withdrew her peeping gaze, and walked outside with her things.

After returning to the Shen family home, Xia Zhi told them that she wanted to go back the next day.

"Okay, then I'll take you to the station tomorrow. My grandfather's condition isn't completely stable yet, so I won't be going back for the time being."

Xia Zhi nodded understandingly, "Yes, it's okay, Brother Shen. I'm not a child anymore. It's just a train ride."

Shen Hangzhi nodded with a smile.

That night, Xia Zhi tossed and turned, unable to sleep, the image of the family of three lingering in her mind.

Finally, I had no choice but to shift my focus and mentally review my achievements over the past period.

She now has nearly 100,000 points, which allows her to upgrade the TCM clinic and the equipment and medicines for other departments.

Not only that, the Shen family, the Bai family, and several other families have also contributed tens of thousands of yuan in medical expenses.

This trip to the city was even more successful than she had imagined.

Xia Zhi sat up. Wouldn't she have to go back to living a carefree life again?
