Chapter 429: The First Meeting

Why become a doctor?

Xu Ji lifted his eyelids and glanced at her.

After Gu Xi asked, she realized that her question might have been a bit intrusive.

She was about to say "I'm sorry," when Xu Ji spoke up.

"I was very young when I was brought to the He family, with perhaps a bit of talent, but I wasn't very clear about what I wanted to learn. It was a friend of Grandma He, an old doctor of Chinese medicine, who thought I had a good memory and a quiet nature, suitable for studying medicine. He insisted on taking me as his apprentice, so I followed him and learned for a few years."

"But at that time, I didn't have any particular concept about whether I should become a doctor."

"Later, it was because of Ah Yao's illness that I thought I should do something, and that confirmed my choice to study medicine, so I majored in psychology."

"Then, because my grades in neurosurgery were so good, the professor thought I was suited to it and had me take an additional course."
