Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss

Chapter 488: Chapter 462: Is It or Isn’t It

“I’m afraid that if you see the money, you’ll think I’m bribing you, and then take back the opportunity you gave me. I’ll give it to you later.”

“Money?” Professor Liu did not expect that there was really money in there.

“Yes, last night Wang Yafei came to me, saying he wanted to pay the treatment fee. I think this money is a recognition of our work, so I should accept it. But since I don’t have a license now, it would be the same as practicing medicine without a license, so I wanted to give it to you.”

So that’s what happened. Professor Liu nodded, took the envelope, and opened it only to frown again.

“Why are you taking so much from him?!”

“…You think this is too much? No wonder you’ve been researching for a lifetime and still live in a barracks-style building.”

“I have a house, I just sold it — return most of this money, leave some for your senior brothers and sisters as research funds, and this is for you.”

Professor Liu took out 20 yuan from his pocket, and Xiao Qian wanted to cry but had no tears.

“Teacher, am I only worth 20 yuan in your heart?”

Wang Yafei’s few thousand yuan was already not much, the teacher returned so much of it, and only gave her 20, it’s no way to make friends like this!

“You are priceless in my heart, and cannot be measured by money. Wang Yafei’s family situation is not good either. Although his salary was very high before, it was all used for family expenses, and now he is treating his disease without any income. How can you take so much from him?”

“But every treatment in other places costs money, we shouldn’t be cheap labor just because we don’t prescribe medicine. Teacher, you are disrupting market prices by doing this. Really, your colleagues will hate you.” Xiao Qian thought her price was not too expensive.

Xiao Qian always charged a high fee for her treatments and had connections in various industries. On the contrary, Professor Liu always focused on the lower class of society, and his treatment fees were very low, which offended many colleagues.

“Chen Xiaoqian, what direction will you take in the future?”

“I plan to go into high-end private consultation, which is still a vacancy in the market. Even if I don’t do it, someone else will. And I don’t want our wealthy clients to send their money abroad. Foreigners may not understand our ethical norms here.”

That is to say, Boss Qian will not ask for the most expensive in the future, but she will strive for the most expensive, and do her utmost to fleece the rich!

Xiao Qian wanted to state her standpoint in advance that she will not change her general direction, she can’t be as noble as her teacher, low-priced or even free treatment is not suitable for the rich, and people with a certain level of status will think that inexpensive treatment is not good.

Unexpectedly, Professor Liu was not angry at Xiao Qian’s blunt words, but nodded calmly.

“Everyone has their own aspirations; I won’t force you to be like me. And what you said is not unreasonable either, the high-end private consultation market is indeed still empty. It’s just that—”

“I shouldn’t forget to rob from the rich to help the poor, and not to associate everything with money, right? Don’t worry, teacher. If I really make it in the future, besides treating the rich, I will also take some low-priced cases within the appropriate scope to give back to society.”

She did this in her past life as well.

Professor Liu shook his head, “That’s not what I meant, I just wanted to tell you that the level of fees is not the criterion for measuring a doctor. In the future, as long as you always remember your profession and enjoy the happiness your profession brings you, sometimes our sense of achievement comes not only from money but also from other things that make us happy. You are a talented child, and I don’t want to see you become a money-making machine. I hope you can enjoy the happiness of being a doctor.”

These words were not said by Professor Liu to Xiao Qian in her past life, and she was deeply moved after hearing them.

“So, teacher, do you often take free cases to enjoy happiness as well?”

“Yes, every consulting client can give me a different feeling, getting to know them, experiencing their world, and thus improving myself. This is something that money can’t buy.”

“So after all this improvement…why do you still have this unpopular look, as if everyone else is polluted and only you are pure, and everyone else is drunk but only you are awake?”

Professor Liu suddenly wanted to slap her, this little girl was getting more and more disrespectful.

“Teacher, actually there’s a question I’ve been wanting to ask you, it’s about Hu Meijing.”

Today’s conversation had come this far, and Xiao Qian didn’t want to hide anymore, so she brought up the matter concerning Hu Meijing directly.

“What happened to her?” When he heard Hu Meijing’s name, the teacher immediately became serious.

“While treating Chu Xuan, I also gave Meijing a set of test questions. You know, when a member of a family has a psychological problem, other family members are usually affected to varying degrees. As a result, I found out about Hu Meijing’s situation…”

“She is somewhat introverted, isn’t she?”

“At first, yes, but then I discovered that when I mentioned the two souls theory, her reaction was somewhat abnormal. I thought about it since she’s your goddaughter, so I wanted to ask you to see what you thought.”

Xiao Qian tried her best to make her words smooth and flawless, but Professor Liu shook his head and flicked her forehead.

“You must have discovered something, I knew I couldn’t hide it from you. You’re too smart. Hu Meijing is not a double personality, but an alternate personality, which in psychology is called Dissociative Fugue Disorder. You must already know about Hu Meijing’s identity, so it’s pointless to pretend anymore, Steel Cannon, you are a real little devil!”

Xiao Qian was first stunned, then flushed, feeling that she had gone to great lengths to hide her intention only to be seen through by her teacher.

No wonder he’s a doctoral supervisor; his IQ is definitely higher, and he easily sees through Xiao Qian. After listening to his straightforward comment, Xiao Qian also felt embarrassed to hide it anymore.

“Yes, I know. She has an alternate personality, but I don’t quite understand… Teacher, why are you taking such a big risk and enduring the pain in your heart to do this?”

Since they are both intelligent people, they might as well be straightforward. Xiao Qian, frankly speaking, feels sorry for her teacher.

“I knew you were worried about me, so I wasn’t mad… Child, how old are you this year?” Professor Liu sighed and asked Xiao Qian. At this moment, she couldn’t feel his usual aloof and proud demeanor as an intellectual, but only an elder.

“I’m 19, but I have tested my psychological age and it is already over 40.”

Professor Liu smiled and shook his head, “Even if your psychological age is above 40, in my eyes, you are still a child. Maybe children your age cannot understand my actions, but in fact, I have my reasons for doing this.”

“What reasons?”

“There are two reasons. One is that as a doctor, I have the responsibility to make the most appropriate treatment plan for the alternate personality based on my judgment. But the more important reason is—”

Professor Liu looked into the distance, and Xiao Qian suddenly understood.

“Is it because you want to fulfill your son’s wish and take care of the people he cares about?”

Professor Liu nodded and shook his head.

Yes, but also no.
