Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Yamin Hospital was full of people, and the automatic registration machine was all occupied. Leia did not have a medical insurance card, and she did not bring the medical examination form.

She took out a sunscreen mask that covered the edge of her eyes. She closed her bag and asked the receptionist with a smile, "Hello, | forgot to bring my medical examination form. How should I solve this problem quickly? The fastest way." The receptionist replied with a polite smile. "Are you an employee of the Yamin Group?" Leia nodded.

The receptionist gave her a form and asked Leia to fill it in. Then, she told her where to go and check. Leia had a good memory and remembered all.

She took the form to consultation room 312, which the nurse had mentioned, and knocked on it. A male voice cfrom the room. "Cin." Leia did not change back into her flat shoes. She reached out to push open the door and placed the list on the table. When Chris saw the list on the table, he understood. He wore a mask, took the stethoscope from his white coat, and hung it around his neck.

"Pull your clothes down a little. | need to listen." It was a tone that was exclusive to doctors.

Leia narrowed her eyes. She felt that this person looked a little like the morning jogger she met this morning.

This mask...

She didn't see the face under the mask, so Leia was not 100% sure.

Seeing that the patient did not move, Chris reminded her again. His tone was calm and emotionless. "Pull up your clothes." Leia cback to her senses and responded calmly. She did as he said, unzipped her black down jacket a little, and said, "Okay." The stethoscope was placed outside her shirt. Leia did not move as she cooperated with the examination.

However, her gaze was fixed on the man in the white coat. His eyebrows were dark, and he had a high brow. He lowered his head. His eyelashes were about the slength as hers.

Chris looked up and met her gaze. When their gazes met, Leia did not look away. She realized that there was a handsomeness about him that would make her unable to look away.

"Have you stared enough?" Chris retracted his stethoscope, took it from his ear, and hung it around his neck.

Realizing that she had lost her composure, Leia apologized. "I'm sorry. | often size up the doctor. Is the examination done?" Chris did not believe her. It was not the first ta woman stared at him like this. He did not pay much attention to it. He just took it that his handsomeness attracted others. He sighed in his heart that women all liked good- looking men.

He briefly explained the medical examinations he had prescribed for her in his usual tone. He was attentive.

At last, he added, "I've also arranged a gynecology check for you. After the examination, you don't have to showthe gynecology department's things. The second floor, consultation room 213." Leia frowned when she heard that there were so many projects. Her good-looking eyebrows were like two thin ropes pulled tightly, squeezing into the middle bit by bit. 'Is he planning to sweep my entire body?' she thought.

After a moment of silence, Leia glanced at the list in her hand and asked, "You can't read the prescription of the gynecology?" To outsiders, they might think she was teasing Chris, but that was not the case. Leia was only doing it for convenience. If this doctor could read the prescription of the gynecology, there was no need for her to go to two places. She still had a meeting. With so many checkups, she was afraid she couldn't rush back in tfor the meeting.

To Chris, it sounded like she wanted to say, "Can | ask you to do it for me?" Chris refused. "I can't. You need to go to consultation room 213 to get a sample first." Leia understood. She zipped it up and stood up. "Thank you." Chris was polite. "You're welcome. It's my duty." As Leia left, Chris still looked up. She was about 5.4 feet tall, with short wolf-cut hair and tassel earrings on her earlobes. Even with her mask on, one could tell that she was a capable woman.

After a few seconds, Chris shook his head and thought, ‘Who cares if she is capable? It has nothing to do with me.’ In less than an hour, all the inspection projects had been completed, and the results were out. Yamin Group did a good thing in this aspect. They had opened up VIP treatment for the employees of Yamin Group, so they did not need to queue.

Results were given priority.

Leia took the form and went to consultation room 312 again. The screen at the door showed the doctor's name, Kimble Lance. She glanced at the nand knocked on the door politely. The smale voice cfrom inside. It was muffled, perhaps because he was wearing a mask. "Cin." She pushed the door open and entered.

Leia did not say anything. She placed the form on the table and even carefully helped spread it out. This action made Chris subconsciously look up at her. His voice becgentler. "Have a seat." She did not disturb him and waited quietly for the doctor's diagnosis. Chris was still reading the prescription seriously. "Have you been to the gynecology department?" Leia reolied, "Yes, | did. There's no problem. I'm very healthy without a boyfriend." Chris was speechless.

Chris looked up at Leia again and explained, "Gynecological problems are not necessarily because of having a boyfriend. There are many reasons for contracting gynecology diseases. If you want to know more about it, you can ask in consultation room 213 from just now." Leia asked, "We can't rule out that reason, can we?" The topic changed. How could a curettage surgeon like him discuss gynecology with a patient? He was speechless. He did not intend to continue the discussion and changed the topic. "Yes, you're a little anemic. From your ultrasound, you have Hashimoto's thyroiditis." She had always known about this. She had already found out about it when she was in Sapphire City. Ignoring the latter question, Leia was direct. "Do | need to take supplements or medicine?" Chris was speechless for a moment.

"It takes a long tto replenish one's energy with food, so the effects of the medicine are faster..." Leia said, "Prescribe the medicine. | want it fast." Hearing this, Chris was stunned for a moment. 'Fast? She is of impatient disposition,’ he thought.

This was Chris's first impression of Leia.

From Leia's calmness, Chris guessed that she knew her other problem. After writing the list, he asked her to get the medicine. The medical examination of the Yamin Group was free of charge. There was no need for the employees to pay themselves.

When Leia reached the door, Chris suddenly said, "It's best not to stay up late with your illness." "Yes, thank you for the reminder, doctor. I'll try to follow your instructions." Chris looked at the closed door and smiled. Leia, who was outside the door, also smiled. How could she not stay up late? It might be possible when she was in Sapphire City.

However, when she first cto Athana, she always stayed up until about 2 in the morning. It had been almost half a year, and she had no tto run in the morning during this period.

It was much better now. She only stayed up late occasionally. Therefore, she could organize a morning run with Quinn in different cities.

If the inheritor of Yamin Group's boss was willing to take over the company tomorrow, she could pack her things and go back to Sapphire City.

After thinking about it for a while, she felt it was unrealistic. She shrugged and walked toward the pharmacy.

The tightly shut door was pushed open, and a man in a bright-colored down jacket walked in, panting. He was wearing a pair of rimless glasses. One could tell that he had an outgoing personality and could directly ignore his refined look given by those glasses.

Before the door closed, the bespectacled man began to speak. He sat on the table and said casually, "Thank you.

Hey, lettell you. | just saw a beauty outside. She's gorgeous. Her face is small, and she's especially elegant.

One look and | can tell that she's a mature woman. | think I'm going to fall in love again." The person who cwas a doctor close to Chris in the hospital. His nwas Kimble Lance, and he was an internist. Because he had something on in the morning, he asked Chris to take his place for a few hours.

However, Chris usually did not receive patients. He was basically in charge of the patients after his surgery.

Usually, he was busy with the surgeries.

Chris sneered. He stood up and prepared to leave. He patted Kimble's shoulder and teased, "You can fall in love 800 times in one day. At this rate, you may have as many children as a kindergarten. I'm leaving." Chris knew he was joking because Kimble had a girlfriend, but their relationship was not stable. She would make a scene every three days.

Kimble knew that Chris didn't have surgeries to do in the morning, so he smiled and asked him to stay. "Aren't you going to sit for a while longer?" Chris stuck a pen in the pocket of his white coat and said, "I'm a surgeon, not a psychiatrist. I'm afraid that if | sit down again, I'll be transferred to another department." Kimble said, "Fuck, I'm fucking from the internal medicine department. Were you mocking me?" Chris turned around and faced Kimble with the back of his head. "It's good that you can hear it. There's nothing bad about psychiatry. At least your mental state is normal." Seeing Chris walking out, Kimble shouted at him seriously, "No wonder you're single." "Yes, just letknow when you get married." Chris did not take his words to heart at all. He heard it, and that was all. After all, Kimble said it 800 times a day.

'So what if I'm single? It's good to be single,’ Chris thought.

Kimble felt hurt. 'My heart hurts. You've touched a sore spot." Chris didn't care about Kimble's expression or mood behind him. He strode out.

On the other side, Leia left the hospital after taking the medicine and drove away. She met Kimble when she got into the car. At that time, she had taken off her mask and was about to get into the car.

She drove the car for a while.

Leia arrived at Yamin Group an hour later. When she entered the elevator, she met Charlie, who happened to cto the company.

"Hello, Mr. Yamin," said Leia. Charlie nodded and replied calmly.

When he saw the medicine in Leia's hand, he asked with concern, "Are you sick?" Charlie was quite satisfied with this girl. She was impeccable in her work and her way of dealing with people.

Leia was neither servile nor overbearing. She smiled politely and said, "I'm slightly anemic. Thank you, Mr.

Yamin, for your concern." Charlie nodded. "Take care of your health. Leave the small matters to the people below." It was exactly the kind of conversation between a big leader and a small leader. "Yes, Mr. Yamin." When the elevator door opened, Leia stood still and let Charlie cout before she cout. Then, she nodded at Charlie.

Charlie thought, 'This child is good and capable at work, but she always treats people differently. She is too clear about the relationship between superiors and subordinates. Sometimes, | was too embarrassed to ask her questions other than work." Leia always looked businesslike and matter-of-fact. It would seem like his status as the chairman had been bought with money if he was too easygoing and didn't put on airs.

Mona followed behind Leia. Before Christina left, she had instructed Mona to take care of Leia. Out of concern, she said, "Ms. March, are you feeling unwell? Why don't | preside over the meeting?" "I'm fine. I'm just a little anemic. It's not a big deal. Have you arranged it?" Leia took off her down jacket. Then, she changed into a checkered suit on the hanger. She wore a pair of slim-fit pants and a pair of nude high-heeled boots. She held the folder with one hand and hung it by the side. She walked out of the office in high heels.

Mona glanced at the nof the medicine inside the transparent bag and followed closely behind.
