[136: Building a Golden Reputation]

As night was approaching, Su Hanyan went to a nearby farmers' market to buy vegetables, meat, and sesame paste, as well as pots, bowls, and other necessities. She came back and cooked a hotpot.

The kids happily had dinner with her before they went home together.

The next day, her study class began.

Zhang Tiancai led his classmates to the class in a grand procession. The scheduled time was three hours a day.

She introduced herself in fluent English and briefly explained the main content of the fifteen-day crash course, which was to cover the grammar knowledge from the high school textbooks.

She decided to explain one or two tenses and some sentence patterns each day, allowing everyone to practice and master them one by one.

Due to her excellent English and clear analytical approach, she effortlessly won over the kids.

During the morning session, everyone's enthusiasm for learning was high. During the break, Su Hanyan also explained the importance of listening, speaking, reading, and writing, encouraging everyone to practice more.

These youthful students looked at her with admiration, holding their textbooks and asking to read along with her!

After the three-hour course ended, the high school students were still eager for more. They were captivated by Su Hanyan's perfect English. Her explanations made it easy to understand and accept, and she occasionally shared interesting Western poems and historical stories.

"Teacher Su, you teach better than our school teachers!"

"Teacher Su, your English is so fluent and smooth, even better than the tapes we use in class!"

"I love your classes!"

"No wonder Zhang Tiancai's grades improved so quickly!"

Students who previously found English dull and boring suddenly fell in love with learning it. They praised this first-time teacher, discovering that learning English wasn't as difficult as they had thought.

"I'm glad you enjoy it! Everyone must work hard and repay your parents and yourselves with excellent grades!" Su Hanyan encouraged them. "Half a month isn't a long time, but if you study earnestly, you can make great progress. Keep it up!"

She decided to invest more effort into this. Once the students' grades improved and her reputation spread, more people would enroll in her classes.

Now that she was living on her own, her expenses were high, so she had to support herself.

She needed to get her diploma, run her study class, earn money, and continue doing translations. She was determined to make Su Hanyan a shining name!

After the class, Su Hanyan spent the afternoon translating the materials Lu Feifan had requested and meticulously proofreading them. Confident that the translation was accurate, she prepared to deliver it to Lu Feifan.

Since she had moved out, the phone number she left him was no longer valid.

The two-day deadline was up, and she couldn't break her promise.

Su Hanyan decided to personally go to the hospital to deliver the materials. Even if Lu Feifan wasn't there, the hospital would be open during the New Year, and his colleagues would ensure he received the materials the next day.

As it wasn't too late, Su Hanyan dressed warmly, put the translated materials in her bag, locked the house, and set out.

There was a bus route nearby that conveniently passed through her factory's residential area, workplace, and finally to the First People's Hospital.

As she emerged from the alley and was about to cross the street, she suddenly heard the screeching sound of brakes. Looking towards the sound, she saw that a tricycle had just hit an elderly woman not far ahead.

[i already have a premonition on who this might be]

[137: Fracture]

The elderly woman, who was quite old, lay on the ground unable to get up, groaning in pain. Her vegetable basket was tossed to one side, and vegetables were scattered all over the place.

Su Hanyan thought the tricycle driver would surely get down to help the elderly woman, but to her surprise, he didn't even look at her. Instead, he pedaled away quickly on his tricycle.

Seeing this, Su Hanyan ran across the street to chase after the tricycle driver, but he had already disappeared at the intersection ahead.

"How despicable!" She stomped her foot in anger and squatted down to check on the elderly woman. "Granny, are you okay?"

The elderly woman looked pained, sweat dripping down her forehead. "It hurts, my arm hurts a lot! It might be fractured..."

A fracture!

She needed to go to the hospital.

There was a nearby hospital, but it was a specialized hospital mainly dealing with cardiovascular diseases. For an orthopedic issue, they needed to go to a different hospital.

Coincidentally, she was planning to go to the First People's Hospital to deliver the translated materials to Lu Feifan, so she decided to take the elderly woman there for treatment as well.

"Granny, I'll take you to the hospital!" Su Hanyan reassured the elderly woman. "Don't worry, I'll hail a taxi, and we'll be there soon!"

The elderly woman nodded painfully.

Near the end of the year, there were very few taxis on the streets. Su Hanyan was lucky to find one at an intersection not far away.

She carefully helped the elderly woman into the taxi and headed straight to the First People's Hospital in Beijing.

After getting out of the taxi, she paid the fare and took the elderly woman directly to the emergency department.

"Young lady, I'm really troubling you!" The elderly woman felt apologetic, thanking Su Hanyan as they walked. "Luckily, I met you. Otherwise, who knows how long I would have been lying on the ground! Am I delaying your matters? If so, you can leave, I can handle the rest myself."

"It's not a problem." Su Hanyan thought of her own dearly loved grandmother when she saw the elderly woman. If her grandmother encountered something like this, she would also hope that someone would help her. "I'm here to do something at this hospital anyway. It's on the way! Please don't feel burdened; let's get you treated first!"

"Alright! Alright!" The elderly woman agreed repeatedly.

Su Hanyan took the elderly woman to the emergency hall and immediately went to the service desk to register and inquire.

The elderly woman held her arm, leaning against the wall in pain while waiting.

Lu Feifan had just finished a surgery. Feeling a bit tired and realizing it was late, he remembered he promised his parents he would come home for dinner tonight. As he changed his clothes and walked downstairs, he saw a familiar figure in the emergency hall.

Granny Jin?

[my senses never lies]

To make sure he wasn't mistaken, Lu Feifan walked over to confirm.

Indeed, he wasn't wrong.

"Granny Jin!" Lu Feifan waved to her. When he saw her holding her arm and looking pained, he knew something was wrong. "Granny, what happened?"

Jin Yan didn't expect to see Lu Feifan here. She knew that Lu Feifan and her grandson Jin Chen spent most of their time in the operating room, so she didn't think to look for acquaintances.

"Feifan!" Jin Yan pointed to her arm. "I was hit by someone on the road. It's probably fractured!"

Before retiring, she was also a doctor, so she had some understanding of her condition.

Hearing this, Lu Feifan immediately said, "Granny, come, let's go see a doctor right away!"

"Wait, hold on!" Jin Yan pointed to Su Hanyan at the service window. "That young lady brought me here, and she's still over there registering!"

[138: Girlfriend]

Lu Feifan followed her finger and saw Su Hanyan, who had just finished registering and turned around.

He was both surprised and delighted.

"Miss Su, it's you!" Lu Feifan strode over.

"Dr. Lu!" Su Hanyan was very happy to see Lu Feifan. "Dr. Lu, I'm here to deliver the translation materials to you! But right now, I need your help with something. I'm afraid I need to trouble you!"

"What is it?"

"Look." Su Hanyan pointed to the elderly woman. "I encountered this on the way! Some scoundrel hit this elderly lady and ran away! She seems to be seriously injured, possibly a fracture... Can you help and take her directly to see an orthopedic doctor?"

"Of course." Lu Feifan smiled. "Do you know who that person is?"

Su Hanyan shook her head in confusion. "Who?"

"Never mind if you don't know." Lu Feifan thought it best not to mention Jin Chen's name in front of her.

Su Hanyan shrugged. It didn't matter to her.

"If you're not in a hurry to leave, why don't you wait for me? I might have some translation questions that I need to consult you about!" Lu Feifan seized this rare opportunity to spend more time with her.

"Sure." Su Hanyan agreed. "I'm not in a hurry!"

She was here for this task, so she wanted to do a good job with the translation.

"Let's go, come along and have a look." Lu Feifan said.

"Alright!"

Lu Feifan, being an anesthesiologist with a cheerful personality, had good relationships with doctors from various departments. He directly found an on-duty orthopedic doctor to check on the elderly woman's condition.

The doctor had the elderly woman get an X-ray. Upon examining it, he determined that no surgery was needed; just immobilization with a cast would suffice.

With Lu Feifan's help, they saved a lot of time.

After coming out of the consultation room, Lu Feifan arranged for the elderly woman to rest in an empty ward while he discussed the translation issues with Su Hanyan.

Granny Jin agreed and asked him quietly, "Do you know this young lady? You two seem quite familiar!"

Lu Feifan gave a mysterious smile. "Granny Jin, isn't this girl beautiful?"

"Yes, she is. She's kind-hearted and has a good temperament!"

"Right?" He blinked his fox-like cunning eyes. "She's my girlfriend!"

[boy... y would u do that]

"Oh my!" The elderly woman was stunned. "When did you get a girlfriend? Your grandmother was just telling me today how worried she is that you refuse to go on blind dates! And you secretly got yourself a girlfriend!"

"Shh!" Lu Feifan said. "It's a secret for now! I want to surprise my family!"

"Alright, alright." Granny Jin nodded, feeling a bit melancholic as she thought about her own grandson, who was both handsome and dutiful.

When would Jin Chen be able to bring home a girlfriend...

"Granny Jin, you rest first. I'll come back to take you home later!" Lu Feifan said.

"Go take care of your matters." Granny Jin smiled. "Be good to that girl!"

"Don't worry, I'll treat her like a treasure!" He waved cheerfully and left the ward.

Lu Feifan took Su Hanyan to the doctor's lounge to discuss the translation issues. As he left, Jin Chen arrived at the hospital. When he passed through the emergency hall, he ran into a nurse on duty from the same department.

The nurse told him that the elderly woman had a fracture, and Dr. Lu had arranged for her treatment. She was now resting in the general surgery ward.

Hearing this, Jin Chen immediately rushed to the ward without hesitation.

Opening the door, he saw Granny Jin resting painfully with her arm in a cast. His eyes darkened, and his heart sank.

"Granny!" Jin Chen walked to the bedside, frowning at her cast and asked with concern, "What happened? How did you get a fracture?"

Granny Jin's eyes lit up when she saw her grandson. "Chenchen, you're finally back from your trip! Granny's fine, don't worry!"

[139: Afraid to Upset You]

"How can I not worry?" Jin Chen's long fingers gently touched the cast. "This cast shows that the injury is serious! It takes a hundred days to heal a bone injury. It will be at least a month or two before it can come off."

"I'm really fine. In life, who doesn't get a little hurt?" Granny Jin reassured her grandson, telling him not to worry.

Jin Chen, however, couldn't help but worry. "Did you fall? How did you get hurt?"

"I was hit by a tricycle while buying groceries!" Granny Jin sighed. "I'm old and useless. My legs and feet aren't nimble anymore. I saw the tricycle coming but couldn't dodge it."

"Where's my mom?" Jin Chen asked. "Hasn't she come yet?"

"No." Granny Jin slowly shook her head. "Every year, your mom rushes here at the end of the year and leaves just as quickly after the new year. Chenchen, this place brings her too much sorrow!"

Jin Chen's lips tightened.

After a moment of silence, he spoke slowly, "People have to look forward."

"Yes." Granny Jin tenderly looked at her grandson, raising her hand to touch his thick black hair. "Your mom is a sentimental person. Besides healing herself, there's another way to cure her heartache!"

"What way?" Jin Chen asked.

"Find a girl, get married, and have children! This is what your mom has always hoped for..." Granny Jin continued, seeing no resistance on her grandson's face. "Chenchen, can you consider it? Your mom has been wandering for years, always worrying about your condition. She's been seeking medical advice and remedies, saying your illness can definitely be cured! You have to believe her, Chenchen."

Jin Chen gave a gentle "hmm."

Whether it could be completely cured was uncertain, but it could certainly be alleviated.

"We can't avoid marriage because of this, right? Look at Feifan, he already has a girlfriend. You can't lag behind! You know, your grandma has always hoped you'd find someone!" Granny Jin said with great anticipation.

Jin Chen listened intently. When he heard that Lu Feifan had a girlfriend, he raised his eyebrows slightly, "Hmm? He has a girlfriend? Since when?"

Just a few days ago, before his business trip, Lu Feifan had been complaining about endless blind dates.

In just a few days, he had a girlfriend?

How could that be?

"Yes, didn't you know?"

"No." Jin Chen shook his head. "He never mentioned it."

"Feifan probably didn't want to upset you."

"I don't think so." Jin Chen believed that Lu Feifan wouldn't be afraid of upsetting him.

"Oh, you should ask him about it." Talking about relationships invigorated Granny Jin. At her age, what else could she look forward to besides her grandson getting married soon? "I must say, Feifan has good taste. That girl is really pretty! Not just pretty, but the more you look at her, the more you like her."

Jin Chen's lips curled slightly. "Didn't Grandma always teach me that a wife should be chosen for her character first? Why are you now focusing on appearances?"

"Yes, character is very important! And that girl's character is impeccable. Do you know? When I got hit today, it was that girl who brought me here! She called a taxi, registered me, and took care of me the whole way... Thanks to her!" Granny Jin felt deeply moved as she recalled it.

She had no relationship with the girl, who could have just helped her up and left.

But she didn't. Instead, she escorted her all the way, registered her, and paid without hesitation.

If this girl wasn't kind-hearted, then what else could she be?

[140: Fate is Truly Wondrous]

"Then I must thank her." Jin Chen asked, "Did you get her contact information?"

"She hasn't left yet." Granny Jin chuckled. "You know, fate is truly wondrous. The girl who brought me here is Feifan's girlfriend!"

"Is that so?" Jin Chen was genuinely intrigued now. "Then I must go and ask her."

"Go ahead. The girl hasn't left yet; she's in the anesthesiology office with Feifan, discussing some translation issues. Go have a look! No matter what, that girl did me a big favor. You should thank her properly," Granny Jin said.

"Alright." Jin Chen nodded. "Grandma, you rest for a bit. I'll be back soon."

"Good, go quickly!"

Jin Chen helped Granny Jin lean against the bed and placed a pillow behind her back. Once he made sure she was comfortable, he left the room and headed straight to the anesthesiology department to find Lu Feifan.

He was indeed curious. Lu Feifan had been infatuated with Su Hanyan recently. How had he suddenly found a new love?

...

After going through the translated content, Lu Feifan found it smooth and coherent. He asked Su Hanyan about the translation process and how to learn some common English phrases.

In truth, he was just looking for an excuse to keep the conversation going. Having finally met this girl, he wanted to spend more time with her, get to know her better, and interact with her more.

"Actually, learning English isn't that difficult. If Dr. Lu wants to learn, it would be best to start with medical English. That way, it will be easier to read medical materials in the future."

"Yeah, but I'm quite slow when it comes to languages. I really like English, but I don't know if you can teach me?"

"This...?" Su Hanyan felt a bit troubled. Suddenly, she thought of something. "Dr. Jin is your friend, right? Didn't he study abroad? His English should be pretty good. Why don't you ask him to teach you?"

"Him?" Lu Feifan leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms behind his head, and said dismissively, "That guy is always busy, like a spinning top. He barely has time to eat or date, let alone teach me English. It's hard~"

"When did you become so passionate about English?"

The door clicked open, and Jin Chen's tall, slender figure appeared. With one hand in his pocket, his gaze swept across Lu Feifan's face and finally settled on Su Hanyan.

Su Hanyan turned at the sound, and their eyes met instantly.

"Dr. Jin!" She greeted him with a smile.

"Yes." Jin Chen frowned slightly. "Why are you here? It's late. Why haven't you gone home?"

At this moment, he hadn't realized that the girl his grandmother mentioned was Su Hanyan. In his mind, Su Hanyan was an employee of the publicity department at the props factory, someone completely unrelated to translating English documents for Lu Feifan.

"Oh!" Lu Feifan stood up and spread his arms to welcome Jin Chen. "Our medical genius is back. How was your trip? Was it tiring?"

"Very good." Jin Chen ignored his hug and directly asked, "Where's your girlfriend?"

[lmao lu feifan u are done for. u deserve it anyway]

"Uh..." Lu Feifan choked on his words and coughed awkwardly. "You met Granny Jin?"

"Yes." Jin Chen said, "I came to thank your girlfriend for helping my..."

"Wait!" Lu Feifan hurriedly interrupted him and pulled Jin Chen outside. "Let's talk outside!"
