Chapter 18: Not wanting to draw boundaries

Qiu Xingci received new news from the master the next morning.

Not eating cilantro and blueberries [Do you have time? Do you want to play games together? ]

Qiu Xingci twitched the corners of his lips and sighed helplessly.

He returned [I’m afraid it won’t work now. ]

Chi Chengye, who was smiling while holding his cell phone, was a little surprised when he received the unexpected answer.

Don’t eat cilantro and blueberries [What’s wrong? ]

Qiu Xingci took a picture of the door number of the dental clinic of the hospital and showed it to him.

[Walk in line, getting ready to see the dentist. ]

Chi Chengye frowned slightly.

[Go to the dentist, do you have a toothache? ]

He thought of Qiu Xingci's habit of eating sweets and wondered if he had damaged his teeth by eating sweets without restraint.

Halfway through a line, "You should eat less sugar..." I suddenly remembered that as a current netizen, I have no position and no basis for saying such a thing.

He paused with his fingers, lowered his eyes, and deleted the lines one by one.

Because a visit to the dentist may require a blood test, Qiu Xingci did not eat breakfast or drink water before arriving, and his mouth was a little dry at the moment.

Qiu Xingci licked his dry lips and replied, "Actually, it doesn't hurt very much. I feel like one of my teeth is broken, but I'm not sure to what extent." ]

Before coming here, he checked on the Internet. If the situation was not serious, it should be a filling.

If the rot is severe, the tooth may need to be extracted.

At this moment, Qiu Xingci silently recited the names of Eastern gods and Western Buddhas, praying sincerely that his teeth would not have too serious problems.

[Master, I’m so annoyed. I don’t know if my dental problem is serious or not. Can I take care of it all at once today?]

Qiu Xingci looked at the door of the clinic opening and closing. Some people said during the conversation that they would make an appointment for the next day.

He felt it was troublesome, and he didn't know if the treatment process would hurt.

Everything unknown made him feel a little anxious.

At this time, a new message popped up.

Qiu Xingci clicked on it and found that the master had sent him two short videos.

It's the kind of comedy short film that's very silly, a little bit ghostly.

Qiu Xingci didn't expect that such a cold-blooded person would watch such short videos in private.

He smiled crookedly, not realizing that his depressed mood due to going to the dentist alone became happier after chatting with the master.

This chat lasted a long time.

Unknowingly, all the people in line in front had finished watching, and it was Qiu Xingci's turn to call.

He walked in a little nervously, followed the dentist's request, lay down, adjusted his position, opened his mouth, and watched the dentist point the light at his mouth and use the mouth mirror to check his diseased teeth.

"There is a small hole on the edge of your tooth, and there is some blockage inside. I need to clean it for you."

The dentist is an older sister. Looking at the work permit on her chest, her surname is Zhang. Her voice is very gentle. , the hand is very steady.

Listening to her voice, Qiu Xingci thought of his sister inexplicably, and felt that their facial contours and temperaments were somewhat similar.

It's just that they haven't seen each other for a long time.

Qiu Xingci felt an inexplicable melancholy in his heart.

Before cleaning the teeth, the dentist warned: "It may hurt a little when cleaning, which is a normal reaction. If you can't help it, just raise your hands."

Qiu Xingci was a little uneasy because he couldn't speak with his mouth open . He could only say "hmm" in his throat to express that he understood.

After that, the dentist started cleaning his teeth. After a while, he asked Qiu Xingci to get up and rinse his mouth, and then continued cleaning.

After going back and forth like this, Qiu Xingci suddenly heard the other party say: "Okay."

The dentist smiled slightly: "I took a photo, and now I can look at your tooth."

It doesn't hurt!

Qiu Xingci's tense nerves were relieved a lot.

His eyes followed the doctor's hand and looked at the oral CT machine, and found that the rotten area of ​​his teeth was not large.

There is a C-shaped gap missing on the edge of the tooth, which does not seem serious.

"Your tooth problem is not serious. You can use filling materials to fill it now."

Qiu Xingci was quite happy to hear her say that.

Before seeing the dentist, he was nervous and anxious. After seeing the diseased teeth and filling them, Qiu Xingci's heart suddenly relaxed.

After taking the bill and paying 900, Qiu Xingci returned to the dental clinic to continue filling his teeth.

The cost is a little higher than Qiu Xingci's psychological price, but not too high. The doctor's hands are very steady and meticulous during the operation. Qiu Xingci feels that the money is well spent.

When he heard the doctor say: "Okay, rinse your mouth again, and then feel it."

Qiu Xingci followed the doctor's instructions, closed his mouth after rinsing, closed his upper and lower teeth, and gritted his teeth gently, nothing happened. It feels too awkward.

It's natural.

Doctor Zhang was still carefully telling him what to pay attention to: "Don't eat too cold and hard food in the past two days, and try not to eat too sweet or spicy food. Don't brush your teeth when you go back today, just rinse your mouth."

Qiu Xingci asked cautiously : "How long will it take before I can brush my teeth?"

"Brush again after 24 hours."

The doctor's tone was very calm. She must have said this many times a day. Then she looked at it and confirmed again: "It feels like your teeth are blocked. "?" Qiu Xingci shook his head and 

said, "No, your filling skills are very good." 

Qiu Xingci's eyebrows curved, feeling that the boat had passed the small mountain. 

"Thank you, doctor," Qiu Xingci thanked him happily. When he was about to leave, he heard the doctor behind him calling him: "Qiu Xingci," 

"Ah," Qiu Xingci turned around in confusion. Look, "Is there anything else, doctor?" 

Doctor Zhang smiled: "Nothing, I just want to ask you, do you know Qiu Xingyue? It's the singer Qiu Xingyue, she is my relative, she calls me aunt according to her seniority. " 

I think you look familiar, and your name sounds familiar. You look like a child from a relative of mine." 

Qiu Xingci was stunned, unable to imagine that there were such coincidences in the world. 

He just went to see a dentist and actually met a relative. 

"I, Qiu Xingyue, am my sister." 

It seemed that she was really a relative of hers, but Qiu Xingci couldn't remember who she was. 

He made a lame excuse: "I'm sorry, Doctor Zhang... Aunt Zhang, I spend a lot of time out of town for school, and you were wearing a mask. I really didn't recognize you just now." 

"It's okay, it's okay." Doctor Zhang didn't Mind this, she is so old and has never seen anything. Every year and festival, there are so many children who don't recognize her. 

"I almost didn't recognize you just now. You grow so fast. You weren't this tall last time we met."

Qiu Xingci showed his eight teeth in a very standard manner and smiled stiffly and politely.

He was trying hard to think of what to say next, but he had no idea what to say.

He took a look, and as it approached noon, one of the few EQs came online: "Auntie, it's fate that I can meet you today. How about I invite you to have a meal with us later."

The young man responded awkwardly, It makes people laugh and feels cute.

Doctor Zhang waved his hand and said truthfully: "No, Aunt Zhang and I have already made an appointment for lunch takeaway in the morning. There are still seven days left in the afternoon, so we won't move."

"You have to sleep at noon, otherwise it will be harmful. I'm sleepy."

"Thank you, I won't eat for now. You go ahead. Remember to say hello to your mother when you get home and ask her to find time to get together."

Qiu Xingci hesitated and said. With smiling eyes, Dr. Zhang responded in a low voice: "Okay."

Then he waved to Dr. Zhang and left the department politely.

After leaving the door, Qiu Xingci put on a mask of pain on his face.

He is celebrating the Chinese New Year this year, but he has not yet decided whether to go back.

Alas,

the last time I went home was the Mid-Autumn Festival. At that time, Qiu Xingci and his family were not happy because they were urging him to change his major and go on a blind date.

During the quarrel, some words really hurt his bones and he didn't want to bow his head.

This cold war has been going on for half a year.

In fact, Qiu Xingci doesn't know how to end it now.

He is not a particularly proud person, but he can't stand others imposing their ideas on him, and he is too controlling.

A boy who is already bent will never be straightened no matter what he does.

Qiu Xingci got on the bus back to the rental house a little distressed. He didn't know whether he should relay Dr. Zhang's greetings or not.

Because I was worried, I didn’t check my phone much during the whole trip.

He was hungry when he walked to the gate of the community. When he saw a roadside stall to buy something, he bought a kimbap.

When he got home, he was eating and checking his phone, and then he noticed that the master had sent him a lot of messages.

10:35

[How about it, what’s wrong with the teeth? ]

[Is the treatment painful? ]

10:47

[Are you okay? ]

11:12

[Have you not finished treatment yet? ]

[Is the problem serious? ]

[If you need help, just ask. ]

11:45

[I remember you said that you came to the dentist on an empty stomach. Are you very hungry now? ]

[Which hospital department, give me the address, and I'll order takeout for you. ]

11:55

[Isn’t it over yet? ]

12:25

[You must not have looked at your phone. ]

Qiu Xingci swallowed the kimbap he was chewing and looked at the time on his phone.

It's almost a bit faster.

He replied [Sorry, I was busy earlier, and I was just looking at my phone. 】

【The problem is not big,】

【The tooth is fine, just a small piece is broken and the tooth is filled. 】

【Do you really want takeout? Is it still outdated? ]

[I'm eating kimbap, have you eaten it? ]

Qiu Xingci thought he would have to wait for a while to see the reply, but he didn't expect that the other party replied immediately.

【It doesn't matter. 】

【Does filling a tooth hurt? 】

Qiu Xingci said【It's okay, it doesn't hurt. 】

Then, Qiu Xingci saw a big red envelope on the chat interface.

[Really, it’s still outdated. 】

This is a reply to Qiu Xingci’s previous question.

【Just place an order for whatever you want to eat. ]

[Gimbap is not nutritious enough, remember to order something delicious. 】

Qiu Xingci was a bit mean just now, but now that he saw the red envelope, he felt a little embarrassed to accept it.

[If you receive it with your heart, you won’t receive the red envelope. 】

The master gave a brief reply with one word【leading】

Qiu Xingci smiled and explained,【This salted egg yolk kimbap is very filling, I was almost full after finishing it. 】

【No need. ]

Qiu Xingci regretted the words he typed casually before, [I was just joking. ]

Chi Chengye frowned slightly as he looked at Qiu Xingci's words of rejection.

When will he once again become a more intimate existence that Qiu Xingci will not refuse?

Nowadays, dividing boundaries like ordinary friends is really a bit... heartbreaking.
