Chapter 148: Steal a Kiss
"Mr. Song, I’m sorry. I really can’t accept undeserved rewards, so I ended up mentioning you," Liu Yajun came in front of Song Xiaodong with the demeanor of a schoolkid admitting a mistake.
Song Xiaodong had originally been disappointed when Liu Yajun revealed his involvement, but upon hearing his words, his impression of Liu Yajun greatly improved. Talents like Liu Yajun were truly rare; nowadays, so many people would do anything for fame and profit. Now that these were offered to him and he had refused, it sufficiently showed that his medical ethics were solid.
Patting Liu Yajun on the shoulder, Song Xiaodong smiled slightly and said, "No problem, you’ve done well."
Those simple words, "you’ve done well," made Liu Yajun feel as if he had received countless honors. His face turned red, and he stammered, "Mr. Song... thank you, thank you for not blaming me."
Song Xiaodong smiled again and said, "I also didn’t think everything through. You should get in touch with Old He more in the future."
"Yes, yes!" Liu Yajun was even more delighted to hear this, as it was a clear recognition of his worth.
Liu Yajun stepped aside, still beaming, and winked at He Wenbai, saying, "Looks like we might become fellow disciples, huh?"
He Wenbai chuckled lightly and said, "I doubt it, since you haven’t studied Traditional Chinese Medicine before."
"Heh, but you’re my senior brother, you have to teach your junior brother here," Liu Yajun said shamelessly while trying to butter up He Wenbai.
He Wenbai was quite amused. Knowing that Liu Yajun’s status in their profession was even higher than his, he tilted his chin up and joked, "Then you better start sucking up to me properly."
