After a month of interventional treatment with traditional Chinese medicine, Teacher Lin looked better and gained weight.

Today, when I came back from the city hospital, my mother was busy stewing soup. As soon as I entered the door, she told me to call the hospital and report on the indicators.

I called to the on-duty phone number.

“h.e.l.lo, This is Gastric Surgical Department.” The familiar baritone voice sounded over there.

“h.e.l.lo, Doctor Gu, I'm Lin Zhixiao.”

Both of us went through some formal conversation until the phone call was going to end, people of the other side inadvertently said: “Du Wenjun's test score has come out, his score 19 points higher than the standard.”

“Not bad, Congratulations from me, I'm happy for him.”

“I will let him know. Goodbye.” He easily hung up the call.

After I became a qualified graduate student, I also became a qualified unemployed person.

My mother had always thought I was taking a postgraduate examination related to my undergraduate major, but everything was finally exposed on the day she saw the admission notice.

She disliked the geology major and began to be cold and hateful towards me.

During my suffering abyss, Sansan threw an olive branch, cooked for my mother and showed her how honorable becoming an engineer in X City.

After took a bath in the evening, both of us lay together on the bed, Sansan suddenly became gossipy: “Zhixiao, do you feel happy?”

“Quite happy.”

“You sure? You look like a person who has unrequited love?”

“……”

“How things between you and Doctor Gu? Why are you hiding that thing from me? I have no interest in your cell phone.”

I looked at the ceiling, “Just a normal relations.h.i.+p between doctor and patient.”

“And then?”

“?”

“And then, no more? Oh, My girl!” Sansan bounced up. “Don't tell me you like a person and you just want to stare at him.”

“Ah… If not, what should I do?”

“Find a way to be together with him.”

At that time, I didn't plan to get to that level. I just felt happy when I could see Doctor Gu, and nothing else.

“Love is a strong desire to be with each other. It is like you expect that one day he will accompany you until old age and have children together.” Sansan disappointedly looked at me, “What is the difference between your feelings for him with liking a painting or a vase?”

“Oh…..”

Sansan suddenly turned her head, suspiciously asked, “That Doctor is also interested in you, right?”

I shook my head, thoughtfully, “No.” (Considerably confident.)

“Impossible, such a lively girl like you, besides he's not a monk.”

“There are a lot of girls in the hospital. You think he has no work to do and could fall in love so carelessly… Moreover, we had only met not long ago.”

“My dear, have you ever heard about love at first sight? Time is not the matter; the important part is to find the right person. Come, tell me about what happened between you and him.”

I talked for 20 minutes to the ‘old monk' Sansan. After she finished listening to it, she suddenly poked my head: “Those young women admire him for his appearance, but that uncle yearns for love!”

After the enlightenment from Sansan for two consecutive days, I had two basic understanding: First, the Doctor is a man, not a lotus flower. No need to only see him from afar, but I can get closer to him and play together. Second, he may seem to be faintly interested in me too.

With these two basic understanding, my mind suddenly became very open. Although I was still confused, I think I could see my way.

After 50 days, once again, I returned to the hospital.

When I gave Xiao Yu the Qingduan made by my grandmother, her laughter rang throughout the whole hallway, and she directly carried away by the head nurse.

(TL note: Qingduan (青团) is green-colored dumpling, typical throughout Chinese cuisine. They made it from glutinous rice mixed with Chinese mugwort or barley gra.s.s. Usually filled with sweet red or black bean paste. Editor: sounds like something out of Hogwarts.)

This time we lived in a ward for two patients, the patient on the next bed was a retired soldier. He held up the TV remote control, accompanied by his son.

At six o'clock in the evening, I went back to the ward after I washed a bowl. I saw that ward-mate leaned against his son's arms. “Sorry, could you help me find a doctor?” His tall and huge father leaned against him, and it was difficult for him to get away.

I ran to the nurse station, “Excuse me, may I know where Director F is?” Tonight he was on duty.

Nurse on duty: “He's probably in the duty room; you can go there and have a look.”

The door of the duty room was not closed. I knocked slightly and slid the door open a little. As soon as I was ready to call him, in the room's corner, I saw a young girl in a nurse's uniform lying on the arms of a man in a white robe. Their arms hugged around each other's necks.

I couldn't see the face of that man, but I remember his wrist.w.a.tch. He showed up in the ward an hour ago — “I'm on duty tonight.”

I was so shocked and took back two steps while my head said, ‘Sh*t, how come I had to run into something like this.'

I turned around hurriedly and looked up to see Doctor Gu coming out of the office and subconsciously taking a step at his direction. According to the Doctor, at that time, I looked terrible.

He glanced at the door of the duty room behind me, glanced around the hallway, grabbed my arm, and pulled me into the office. “Did they see you?” I immediately shook my head.

I was still trying hard to breathe normally, and he suddenly bowed his head and casually flipped through the medical record on his hand. “There is a situation indeed like the one you have just said, but there is not much problem with the indicators, so pay more attention to—- “

I raised my eyebrows, but I heard the open door and footsteps from the door behind me. I looked at the Doctor's side face and cleared my throat. “Ok, I got it. Thank you, Doctor Gu.”

“You are welcome.”

“Xiao Gu, why are you still here?”

Doctor Gu eyes swept on me, his face was calm, “When I walked out, I found out that I left my phone in the office.”

I turned around and smiled, “h.e.l.lo, Director F.”

The other party nodded, “Go back early.” Turned his body around and left. I sighed with relief, looked back awkwardly.

There's was emotion on Doctor Gu's face, but his voice was very soft, “In the future, don't carelessly go into the duty room.”

I nodded: “The nurse on duty told me to find him there. One of the patient in our ward is spasming.”

Doctor Gu lifted his leg and went out. When he pa.s.sed the nurse station, he looked at the nurse who was on duty. Before he entered the ward, he said lowly, “Next time, let the nurse find them.”

I complained silently: in fact, nurses were also very gossipy; they also borrowed other peoples hand to gossip.

Special Dialog:
Doctor: How come anything could happen to you?
(Bad luck. why did you stay so late that day?)
Doctor: G.o.d asked me to stay and help you.
