"Boss."
Song Sisi walked into the clinic, carrying steamed buns.
Li Xu had told her yesterday that he would be going out today.
But Song Sisi was bored at the apartment.
She had already memorized the acupuncture points.
She wanted to check them against the human meridian model in the clinic to reinforce her knowledge.
So, she was minding the clinic today.
"You hold down the fort, but remember, don't treat any patients,"
Li Xu instructed.
Song Sisi was in the middle of eating a steamed bun, and she mumbled, "Even if I wanted to treat patients, I wouldn't know how."
"I'm off. I might not be back today."
...
Bailingyu Village was to the west of Feng City.
Jing County was to the southeast of Feng City.
Li Xu had to go southeast first, then cut due west.
After a series of rides, he arrived in Jing County.
Just then, a light rain began to fall.
The autumn rain wasn't heavy, but it carried a chill and was ceaseless.
