My years as a menswear boss

Jiqiu became famous at Earl G's ball, and she received a lot of ball invitations from women.Men avoided her like snakes and scorpions.

'It's more like a boy. Jiqiu leaned against the carved wall, looking tiredly at the young men and women dancing on the dance floor at the ball, she felt that the chance of her research being exposed was far away.

"Adrian, why don't you go dancing?"

Anais dragged her complicated skirt and walked to the young man. She had a look of expectation on her face, "Dancing is the most beautiful sport in the world, are you sure you don't want to try it?"

"I'm not good at dancing." Jiqiu replied with lowered eyes, her cold tone hurt Anais quite a bit.

"Is it because I didn't do well enough?" Anais's eyes revealed melancholy. She tried to find a hint of her heartbeat on the doctor's handsome face, but unfortunately she still failed.

Jiqiu raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Ma'am, why do you think so?"

"Then why did you move out of my house?" Anais asked sadly.

"Ms. Pettit, we have always been a doctor-patient relationship. You introduced patients to me and lent me a shop as a clinic. This is something I am grateful for. How can I continue to trouble you?"

Jiqiu explained in a warm voice, she thought her words were straightforward enough, "If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, I will treat you for free."

"I'm fine, Adrian!" Anais raised her voice, attracting the attention of the people around her. She didn't seem to care at all, "Don't you understand my intention?!"

"Madam, please calm down." Jiqiu frowned and pressed Anais's shoulders. She looked back at the crowd around her indifferently. She didn't continue until the eyes of those people were averted, "What are you doing?" doing what?"

After Anais regained her senses, her face turned pale when she thought about what she had done just now, "Why did I do this?"

Jiqiu took a glass of punch from the table and handed it to her with a calm expression, "You might feel better after drinking this."

"Take a deep breath slowly, don't get excited." The young man stroked the woman's back again and again with warm palms until her face returned to rosy.

After the dance, Jiqiu helped Anais into her private carriage and prepared to walk home by herself.

"Adrian." Anais poked her head out of the carriage window, and called out the young man's name nervously.

"Don't care about those gossips, just go back and take a hot bath and sleep."

Jiqiu said that this situation is the last thing she wants to see, "It seems that we have to move out as soon as possible." '

After watching Anais's carriage leave, a man in a deacon's attire handed Jiqiu a letter, "Duke Juradi wants to see you."

'How could the Duke notice such a small person like me? Jiqiu thought for a while before deciding to go to the appointment, "Then please lead me the way."

After a while, Jiqiu was taken to a private box in the ball house, where she sat upright, with her right hand quietly reaching into the pocket of her coat (Mu Cang).

The door was pushed open, and Jiqiu stood up immediately. She saw the distinguished Duke Juradi, and in front of him was an old man in his sixties. He was wearing a custom-made vest, with a rich figure and a straight nose. Wearing a pair of monocles, the whole body exudes the taste of pampering.

"Nice to meet you, Dr. Goetti." Duke Juradi spoke out first. Although his tone was light, his demeanor was not contemptuous.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Excellency Duke Juradi." Jiqiu greeted her in a friendly way, and her neither humble nor overbearing attitude obviously made the old duke take a high look.

"Is there anything you need help with?" She sat down at the duke's signal.

Duke Juradi touched the pocket watch on his waist and nodded, "I heard from Brigitte that Dr. Goetti has superb medical skills. I would like to ask you to help me treat a patient."

Jiqiu recalled the name in the mouth of the Duke of Juradi, which seemed to be a (female branch) girl who was infected with a cold, her former patient, "It is a doctor's bounden duty to heal patients. May I ask who needs to be treated here?"

"My daughter Maria," said Juradi.

Jiqiu was a little surprised, "Is it the princess? So what's wrong with her?"

"She has a lung disease and is now recuperating in the nursing home in Bagnell, but this is only to alleviate the deterioration of the condition, not to cure it."

Duke Juradi looked at the young man in front of him. He didn't know if his step was right, but he was desperate, so he might as well give it a go. A week ago, he heard that a (female branch) girl who was in the same situation as Maria was arrested After he was cured, he hurriedly inquired about the doctor's whereabouts from that (female branch) woman.

"I will try my best to heal the princess." Jiqiu knew that this was an opportunity, it was an opportunity that fell from the sky.

"Yes." Duke Juradi nodded slowly. He didn't forget to remind the young man, "Maria is my only daughter, and I raised her a little pampered. If there is anything excessive, please forgive me."

It was the first time Jiqiu heard her father say this about her daughter, and she still wrote down the words, "Of course, I believe that the princess must be a lady if you are such an educated person." At least for the sake of being a princess. , I will not do anything to her.

Duke Juradi seemed to be pleased by this compliment. He generously left a huge amount of consultation money, and he was not afraid of the young man running away with the money. "This is part of it. If you cure my daughter, you will get even more money." remuneration."

Under the Duke's several operations, Jiqiu changed from a barefoot doctor to a professional doctor in a nursing home. She smelled the smell of grass in the air and felt her nerves relax.

The people who stayed in the Parnell Sanatorium were either rich or noble, and the people who worked here were more like servants than medical staff. Except for food, they almost met all the requirements of the patients.

At this time, a panting man came running from the wheat field with a book in his arms. This is a certain collection of poems requested by the patient in charge of him. Must see it in the afternoon or fire him.

For the high wages, most of them are willing to endure as long as they can, and the director of the nursing home also turns a blind eye.

"It is said that the newcomer is the doctor in charge of Miss Juradi." A certain maid whispered to her companion not far away.

"Oh, I hope that young lady calms down a bit and lets me take a closer look at this young doctor." Her companion boldly looked at the tall and straight young man, thinking about it.

Jiqiu followed another doctor to get familiar with the environment of the nursing home, "What a comfortable place, I feel like I can't breathe after staying in Paris for a long time."

The doctor was just about to agree with this sentence, when he suddenly thought of the patient that the young man was about to be in charge of, he swallowed back the words, "Oh, yes, I would like to stay in Bagnell without some people." lifetime."

"Really?" Jiqiu's eyes flashed with unclear emotions, and she pretended to ask for advice humbly, "How much do you know about the princess? I want to get acquainted with my patient so that I can treat her."

"A very different lady." The man replied succinctly, and he didn't want to say anything else. The princess is something that people like him can't talk about.

On the second day of her employment, Jiqiu wore a decent tuxedo. She checked in front of the mirror that she was not disrespectful before she came to the door of the ward where Miss Juradi was staying.

Before she could knock on the door, there was a sound of broken porcelain from inside.

"Get out! Are you eating something for people?!"

The next moment, the door was opened, and the young maid fled with her face covered in sobs.

Jiqiu looked at the mess on the floor of the room. The naked eye could see that it was a special chicken breast breakfast made by the nursing home. She looked at the girl sitting on the big bed who was breathing heavily.

"Hello, Miss Juraty, I am the doctor invited by your father." She greeted Miss Juraday politely.

The girl on the bed turned her head when she heard the sound, and saw the young man standing outside the door. She raised her head proudly, and before she could speak, she coughed heart-piercingly.

Jiqiu stepped forward and handed over a clean handkerchief, "Are you okay?"

Maria raised her head to meet the young man's calm gaze. She hesitated for a moment, but still turned her head and refused to accept the kindness.

It was only then that Jiqiu realized that this young lady and Margaret looked very similar. Standing together, they might be regarded as twin sisters.

"Hurry up if you want to see a doctor. I just want to be alone." Maria said with a weary look. She had just lost her temper and now became very weak.

"I'm sorry." Jiqiu put on a stethoscope to check her heartbeat, then put on gloves and took out the needle tube in the medicine box to give Maria a skin test to test for allergic reactions.

Maria was attracted by the young doctor's movements. She lifted her head feebly and watched Jiqiu apply the brown liquid medicine on her arm, and then picked up her cortex with the needle, "Woo...it hurts."

"Sorry, please bear with me a little bit." Jiqiu said while holding Maria's arm, and she picked up the poetry collection on the table with her other hand, "I can read poetry for you to relieve the pain."

"Okay, the part I read last time is bookmarked, you can read on."

Maria looked away and looked out the window. She felt the warmth from the young man's fingers, and the anger in her heart dissipated.

Jiqiu opened Shelley's "A Withered Violet", and she read the poems on it in a soft voice with a chant tone.

Maria listened to the lazy voice of the young man, and she slowly closed her eyes. After losing her temper, she was exhausted and soon fell asleep.

Jiqiu gently put down the book, looked at the skin test reaction on Maria's hand, and said, "Fortunately, there is no allergic reaction." '
