5 "You know Medicine?"

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Qin Yang was speechless. He turned around and picked up the instant noodles. 

'A train ride is never complete without instant noodles!'

Plus, he'll have to be nice Zhang Bin if he accepts the favor which means that he would have to tolerate his bullsh*t after this or Qin Yang would be the ill-mannered one.

"You're still planning to eat instant noodles? I thought Zhang Bin was buying food?"

Qin Yang heard Li Siqi's distinctly clear and brisk voice over his head just as he was turning around.

Qin Yang raised his head, looked at Li Siqi's bright eyes, and laughed. "I like eating instant noodles."

Li Siqi blinked and quietly asked, "I also have instant noodles. It's too inconvenient for me to come down. Can you please make me a cup of noodles, too?"

Qin Yang was confused and asked, "You want instant noodles as well? I thought Zhang Bin was buying food?"

Qin Yang asked Lin Siqi the same question that she had asked him.

 Li Siqi slightly raised her eyebrows and revealed a naughty smile on her face. "I like eating instant noodles too."

Qin Yang was amused by Li Siqi's response and nodded his head. "Fine, I'll make it for you."

Li Siqi took out a cup of instant noodles from a plastic bag and passed it to Qin Yang. He took it, smiled and then started making her noodles. He also asked the pregnant woman on the lower berth if she wanted some.

 "Sister Lu, what are you having for dinner? Anything that I can help you with?"

She was also delighted by their conversation and she shook her head with a smile. "I ate before boarding so I don't have any appetite right now. Enjoy your food, don't worry about me."

 "Okay. If there is anything that I can help you with, just let me know."

Soon, the instant noodles were ready. Qin Yang noticed that Li Siqi had no intention of getting out of bed so he used his book as a plate, placed it under the instant noodles, and passed them together to Li Siqi.

 "It's hot so I used it as a plate."

 Li Siqi thanked him with a smile, "Thanks, I won't stain it."

 Qin Yang smiled in return and casually said, "It's fine even if you do. I was just using it to kill some time. I'm almost done reading."

A few minutes later, Qin Yang uncovered his instant noodle and stirred it a few times. He drank some of the soup and exclaimed with a face filled with satisfaction, "This is what I'm talking about!"

Amused by Qin Yang's words, Li Siqi laughed with her hands covering her mouth. She took tiny bites and ate gracefully; each and every motion was pleasing to the eyes.

The door suddenly opened and Zhang Bin walked in with two plastic bags. One of the bags was filled with hot food like braised chicken feet, beef jerky, and tea eggs; the other was full of beer.

When Zhang Bin saw that Li Siqi and Qin Yang were already eating instant noodles, he was stunned. "Eh? You're already eating? Why eat instant noodles! Miss Li, Qin Yang, Sister Lu, how about we all eat together?"

Qin Yang remained unmoved and politely refused with a smile, "It's okay. I ate before boarding the train so a cup of instant noodles will do. I'm actually full already."

Zhang Bin stared at Li Siqi who was on the upper bunk. She smiled and said. "I don't eat a lot for dinner. I can't even finish this cup of noodles."

Zhang Bin felt awkward after being rejected twice but he could not force them. So, he sat down, opened a can of beer and ate on his own.

Soon, Li Siqi was also done with her noodles and Qin Yang helped her throw out the cup. She returned the book to Qin Yang and thanked him with her beautiful smile.

Zhang Bin saw the sincere smile on her face and it was completely different from the polite refusals that she gave him. He became a little irritated with Qin Yang.

 'You stinky, noodle-eating brat! I haven't even started and you're already ahead of me?!''

'F*ck, if I knew earlier that I could pick up girls with instant noodles, then I should have just helped with making them. I wouldn't have to spend so much money on all this!'

Qin Yang didn't use this opportunity to start a conversation with Li Siqi. Instead, he climbed up onto his bed after using the lavatory and lay down to sleep after watching some TV.

Around midnight, the train abruptly stopped. It was as if the train had come into something and there was a sudden brake. Qin Yang's body was thrown against the wall and he was awoken from his sleep.

 "Ah!"

 Sister Lu, who was sleeping on the lower bunk, suddenly let out a sharp cry. Her voice sounded as if she was in pain.

Qin Yang leaned over and saw Sister Lu hugging onto her stomach and she looked like she was in pain. Qin Yang was concerned and asked, "Sister Lu, how are you? Did you hit your stomach?"

Sister Lu nodded her head in anguish. "Yeah, It hit against the wall. It hurts..."

Qin Yang's heart sank and he suddenly got up. He grabbed the rail with one hand and directly jumped down without using the ladder.

Li Siqi and Zhang Bin were also aroused from their sleep and were looking around while Zhang Bin started complaining non-stop.

"Why did the train stop in the middle of the night? What the f**k are they doing? Are they letting us sleep or not?"

 Qin Yang sat on Sister Lu's bed as he comforted her, "Sister Lu, I know a bit of medicine. Let me examine you."

Sister Lu nodded as she gritted her teeth. Droplets of sweat were forming on her forehead in such a short period of time. "My stomach really hurts!"

Qin Yang held Sister Lu's hands and checked her pulse. He gently stroked Sister Lu's stomach back and forth several times. Then, as Qin Yang noticed the blood spot on Sister Lu's bed sheet, he couldn't help but frown.

"Sister Lu, the impact from the hit just now has caused the fetal position to change. There's bleeding inside and your water has broken. Your baby would be born premature."

Zhang Bin, who had previously regarded Qin Yang as an eyesore, heard what he said and couldn't help but interject, "Qin Yang, you're not a professional, stop it with all this nonsense. This matter concerns a living human being. How can she give birth on the train in the middle of the night?"

Qin Yang ignored Zhang Bin as he tried to calm her down, "Sister Lu, don't be afraid, you can do this. Hold on, I'll look for the conductor."

He turned his head to Li Siqi, who had already gotten out of her bed. "Miss Li, please take care of her. I'll be back soon."

Li Siqi was actually shocked to see how calm Qin Yang was.

'This guy is so young but yet he's so calm. He is so composed even when facing such urgent situations.'

"Sure!"

Qin Yang quickly left the room and found the conductor. After finding out that they would not be able to stop at a platform anytime soon, he asked the conductor to look for a doctor that was capable of delivering a baby.

The conductor turned on the train's P.A. system. Fortunately, there was a female doctor on board who was an obstetrician. When she heard the broadcast, she directly went to Qin Yang's room.

Hot water, first-aid kits, and all the other necessary items were prepared. The female doctor brought a female attendant into the room and asked Qin Yang and the rest of them to leave the room.

Qin Yang leaned against the wall and stared at the obscure darkness outside the window in deep thought. Just a while ago, when he had examined Sister Lu, he had concluded that the fetal position seemed to be incorrect. He was afraid that the delivery may not go smoothly. Hopefully, things would not go wrong.

 Li Siqi saw Qin Yang who was deep in thought and was a little curious. She couldn't help herself and asked, "Qin Yang, you've studied medicine?"
