Bai Meng glanced at the wall clock. It was already past 7 o'clock in the evening. His parents should still be waiting for them to come back and probably hadn't eaten yet.

The police station is in the town and it would take a while to get there, so Bai Meng asked Bai Lan to go home and tell them first to avoid worrying his parents.

Bai Lan nodded, picked up the things she bought on the ground, and walked out of the clinic.

At this time, Doctor Li came over with a stethoscope, but he didn't wait for him to listen to the heart.

The girl seemed to have seen a flood and a ferocious beast. Her eyes were filled with fear. She hugged Bai Meng's arm tightly, and her whole body trembled even more violently.

"This..." Seeing how scared she was, Doctor Li had no other options. "You're really scared. You'd better go to a hospital in the city for a checkup."

Bai Meng: "Well, let's wait for the police officer to come over. Doctor Li, can you help me get a glass of sugar water?"

"Okay." Doctor Li took off his stethoscope and put it on the table. He turned around to make some sugar water. After a while, he brought it back and put it on the table. He asked, "Xiao Meng, didn't you call her home?"

Bai Meng picked up the cup and tested the water temperature. If she drank slowly, it would be just right. "Her phone must have fallen into the water, and she can't remember her family's phone number."

Then he handed the sugar water to the girl: "Drink some water."

Because she fell into the water, the girl's long hair became like messy seaweed, so thick and dense that it was still dripping.

The girl raised her head slightly, looked at the syrup in front of her and hesitated for a long time before she hugged Bai Meng's arm and reached out to take it.

It was very soft. Bai Meng wanted to pull his hand back in embarrassment, but seeing that the girl looked timid, he was afraid that she would do something extreme, so he had to take out his cell phone and report his safety to his relatives and friends in Tiancheng.

Because I was in a hurry to save people, I forgot to give the phone to my sister. Fortunately, it didn’t fall into the river, otherwise it would have been terrible.

I took two pieces of paper from the table, wiped my hands and the phone dry, unlocked it and tried various functions. I found no problems at all, and then I breathed a sigh of relief.

Doctor Li looked at his phone, pushed down his glasses, and said with a smile, "Xiao Meng, is this the latest model of Juhua M70?"

Bai Meng: "Yeah."

The mobile phone was bought together with the car by Sister Meng. She said it has the same system as the car's computer and is more convenient to use.

"It's not cheap, is it?" Doctor Li sat back at the table, picked up the bowl and asked.

"I don't know, a friend gave it to me." Bai Meng answered truthfully.

The man who was playing chess with Dr. Li just now said, "Oh? Girlfriend?"

Bai Meng hesitated for a moment before nodding.

Doctor Li's eyes lit up: "Your girlfriend didn't come back with you?"

Bai Meng: "We were in a hurry to come back this time, and she was busy with work, so she didn't come back with us."

"Very good, haha." Doctor Li and the chess player looked at each other and smiled.

Bai Meng was too lazy to say anything more. The villagers were like that. They would gossip at the slightest news. If they didn't have some mental strength, they would become depressed in a few days.

However, he did not notice that the girl, who was sipping sugar water, made a slight snort of unhappiness when she heard him admit that he had a girlfriend.

Then a pair of peach blossom eyes behind the long hair stared at the mobile phone in his hand with disgust, but it quickly disappeared.

After reporting that he was safe, Bai Meng was about to put his phone into his trouser pocket when he felt a bulge inside. With an idea in his mind, he calmly picked up the phone and continued playing with it.

The yuan in cash had arrived in the system, but he didn't know how it got into his pocket. It was not there when he took out his phone just now.

After watching short videos for a while and the girl finished a cup of sugar water, Bai Meng looked at the time. It was already 7:40 in the evening, so he frowned.

"Why haven't you come yet?"

Although the police station is in the town, it is only a 20-minute drive from the village, so it should have arrived by now.

Doctor Li has finished his meal and is sitting in a chair, playing with his mobile phone out of boredom. He looks up at the wall clock from time to time. It seems that he is about to go home.

Bai Meng gradually became anxious. If the police officer didn't come, she couldn't stay in the clinic all the time.

Although doctors are kind-hearted, we live in a society where human relationships are important and you cannot take everything for granted. Even if others don't say anything, you cannot be ignorant.

Bai Meng looked down at the girl who was still hugging him, gritted his teeth, and asked in a low voice: "You really don't remember your family's phone number?"

The girl, who had calmed down again, trembled again when she heard the words, like a pet that was afraid of being abandoned. A low sob came from behind her thick long hair, and she hugged her husband even tighter.

Hiss! Bai Meng also had a headache.

Doctor Li pushed up his black-framed glasses and said with a smile, "Can you ask her if she's feeling unwell?"

"If not, it shouldn't be a big problem. You can go back and take a shower first to avoid catching a cold."

"I was frightened and my body is still wet. Although it's hot now, it's easy to get sick. After all, I'm a girl. If I'm on my period, I have to be more careful."

Bai Meng nodded, then looked at the girl and asked softly, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

The girl lowered her head and shook it gently, but her sobbing gradually disappeared.

Sighing, Bai Meng pondered for a while, looked up at the time, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening.

Forget it, even if we have to send the Buddha to the west, we can’t just save the person and then just leave him there.

And seeing how timid and frightened she was, Bai Meng felt very sympathetic in his heart, especially since her falling into the water this time was obviously something unusual.

The clothes the girl was wearing were very expensive, and it was obvious that she was not from an ordinary family. Bai Meng had heard and seen a lot of the troubles in big families these days.

Bai Meng asked helplessly: "Can you walk by yourself?"

Perhaps because she drank a cup of sugar water and rested for such a long time, the girl hugged Bai Meng's arm and slowly stood up.

Bai Meng didn't pay attention when he was rescuing people before. Now when he stood up, he found that she was very tall, at least taller than he was before, about 1.75 meters.

Bai Meng: "Girl, please let go of your hands first, so I can't support you."

The girl hesitated for a moment before she released her arms and clasped them in front of her chest, which was a sign of great insecurity and made her look even more pitiful.

Bai Meng also breathed a sigh of relief. Although the girl was very soft, it was not a good idea to hold her like that all the time.

"Doctor Li, sorry to bother you." Bai Meng helped the girl walk towards the door.

Seeing that they were about to leave, Doctor Li quickly stood up with a smile from the bottom of his heart on his face: "We are from the same village, it's not a big deal. Remember to get some hot water for her to wash and change her clothes when you go back."

"Got it. We'll leave first then."

Bai Meng and the girl walked out of the clinic. It was already night outside. A full moon hung high in the sky, and a brilliant Milky Way divided the sky into two sides.

The moonlight is like frost, sprinkling the earth, the evening breeze is cool and pleasant, and the chirping of insects is a symphony from nature.

Taking a deep breath, Bai Meng looked at the quiet village, and his anxious heart regained peace and stability.

I don’t know who said it, but every Mid-Autumn Festival and Spring Festival, people who have left their hometowns must go back home, not only for family reunion, but also for healing.

To heal the hardships and difficulties I have experienced outside this year, as well as the heartache that I cannot tell anyone about.

Having left home at a young age, Bai Meng has a deep understanding of this matter. No matter what difficulties he encounters outside, as long as he goes home, he can be fully revived and continue to fight.

The wind blew, lifting a corner of long hair, revealing a pair of eyes that reflected the Milky Way, so bright and beautiful that it was beyond words. In the center of the Milky Way was reflected the profile of a person.

Doctor Li packed up his belongings, turned off the lights, and walked out of the clinic.

He locked the door, turned around and said, "Call the police station in town when you get home. I'll be leaving now."

Bai Meng: "Thank you, Doctor Li."

Doctor Li waved his hand, put his hands behind his back, hummed an out-of-tune tune, and walked away along the village road.
