Chapter 113 Wen Han suspects this might be Jing Yu…
Under Dr. Wang's persuasive persuasion, the other party reluctantly accepted that it was Wen Han's body's stress response as her monthly estrus period approached.
Dr. Wang gestured, "Oh dear, you'll surely understand since they're all Omegas..."
"Alright."
Wen Han breathed a sigh of relief. The other party was willing to give Wen Han another chance. This time, Wen Han endured the nausea and confirmed that the other party was not in the early stages, but she also had to take care of her health and could not let things continue.
Wen Han bought a bottle of ice water at the supermarket inside the hospital, and finally managed to suppress her nausea.
"Looks like I can't have steamed buns for breakfast anymore," Wen Han said. "They're a mixture of sugar and oil anyway, which isn't good for your health."
"Host, the roast duck you love to eat is also a mixture of sugar and oil, as is the sweet and sour pork ribs and lamb skewers you love to eat."
"That's different!"
"What's different?"
Wen Han said righteously, "These things you mentioned are clearly rich in protein."
system:"......"
Sigh, compared to work, drinking ice water here is quite pleasant.
The senior student also sneaked downstairs and whispered, "So, has the patient's matter been resolved?"
Wen Han nodded.
“Sigh, you have no experience,” the senior said. “To prevent this from happening, I always wait an hour or two before eating in the morning.”
"Or you could drink some of that electrolyte water, it's quite helpful too."
Electrolyte water is more expensive than mineral water. Wen Han planned to drink a few more sips before going back to check on Chu Ji's baby.
What if Jingyu happens to be there too?
As if on cue, he looked up and saw that Jing Yu had also arrived, and the memory of his hasty escape yesterday flooded back.
As soon as Jing Yu appeared, people around him glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally. Wen Han didn't even blink. Jing Yu also saw him, but no one knew what he was thinking.
The system suddenly started singing: "Last night I saw again the man who abandoned me and never returned—"
Even with the most rigorous training, Wen Han couldn't remain calm at this moment, and she immediately choked.
"Ouch." After spending a year together, the senior and Wen Han had become so familiar that they could joke around. Seeing that a small patch of Wen Han's shirt was wet, the senior clicked his tongue twice and said, "It leaks when you drink water now. What will you do when you get old? What if you don't meet kind medical staff like us?"
In the past, Wen Han would have laughed and told him to get lost, but Jing Yu witnessed this embarrassing scene.
The system didn't expect Wen Han to react so strongly, and immediately became a coward.
Water got into her trachea, and Wen Han coughed a few more times before she could barely calm down.
A square of white tissue appeared in front of him. Just as Wen Han was about to take it, Jing Yu gently wiped his clothes as if no one else was around.
Wen Han was still a little embarrassed, even though he was the only one feeling awkward. He looked up and could see Jing Yu's lowered eyelashes and beautiful lips. He immediately looked down and could see Jing Yu's well-defined hands wiping his clothes. His eyes darted around for a moment.
In summer, when clothes are thin, you can feel the sensation of your fingertips even through a tissue.
Anyway, this kind of socially awkward situation had happened to Jing Yu more than once or twice, so Wen Han quickly gave up struggling.
Although the senior was shocked, he figured Wen Han hadn't refused, so the two must know each other. Realizing he had zero dating experience and would only be a background figure, he quickly ran away.
"I...I...I can do it myself." Wen Han stammered as soon as she spoke, wishing she could just bite her tongue off.
"You're carrying things in your hands, it's inconvenient."
Upon hearing this, Wen Han looked at her hands. Holding a mineral water bottle in one hand was indeed inconvenient, and the other hand was holding... the bottle cap.
"Chu Ji asked why you didn't come," Jing Yu said. "He even asked me to order a sandwich and mung bean milk for you."
Wen Han felt ashamed. How could she ignore Chu Ji just because she was avoiding Jing Yu?
Thinking of this, he couldn't come up with any reason to refuse, and obediently went back to the ward with Jingyu.
*
"Qiaotao?" Wen Han asked, "Why did you choose this nickname?"
"It smells just like our pheromones."
Wen Han: "......" Two graduates from prestigious universities, and the name they chose was so simple and crude.
Yesterday it was a bit wrinkled, but today it has undergone a complete transformation in appearance. It turns out that a baby's skin is so smooth that water droplets just flow off automatically.
Looking into the other person's bright, unpolluted eyes, Wen Han sighed. If only she could just play with the baby and not have to do any work.
Wen Han asked, "Are you being discharged from the hospital the day after tomorrow?"
Chu Ji hummed in agreement.
Once Chu Ji returns, Jing Yu will probably have no reason to come to the hospital.
I originally came to visit my newborn nephew. Summer vacation is almost over, and Jingyu will be going back soon.
Wen Han tugged at the edge of the crib, and Chu Ji said, "By the way, did you have a high school reunion? Since you're back, why don't you go out for a meal with your classmates?"
Wen Han frowned. Actually, there was someone, but it had been a year since they last met, and it would be so awkward if she couldn't recall the other person's name at the dinner table.
Wen Han didn't get to play for long before she had to get back to work.
The obstetrics department is no easy task either; Wen Han does far more work there than in the oncology department.
Although it's possible to make a diagnosis simply by smelling pheromones, lucky ones are few and far between. Many patients arrive at an advanced stage, and Wen Han is even more afraid of seeing the despair on their faces.
As she was leaving, Jingyu said softly, "Are you free tonight? It's been a long time."
Wen Han couldn't refuse, so she could only nod.
——
Jiang Kuo was acting strangely today, glancing at him from time to time while he was working.
"What's wrong?"
Who is that boy?
"My friend."
"Doesn't seem like a normal friend, but an ex-boyfriend?"
"No." How could he be an ex-boyfriend when we'd never even started anything? Wen Han frowned. "How did you know?"
"I heard you offended a patient. I saw it when I went down to the first floor."
Jiang Kuo recalled, "You cared a lot about Chu Ji because he was that person's relative?"
"No, Chu Ji is very good to me, so of course I will care about him." Wen Han didn't want others to know about his relationship with Jing Yu.
You were distracted all day.
Unable to bear the probing in his words, Wen Han directly admitted, "Yes, I'm thinking about him."
Jiang Kuo fell silent. Wen Han hated it most when others pried into her affairs. She smiled and continued, "He was my high school classmate. We hadn't seen each other for a year because he was studying abroad. He only recently came back. It's normal for me to be interested in his affairs, isn't it?"
"He is an Alpha."
Wen Han raised an eyebrow; he thought Jiang Kuo only had a problem with Omegas.
"His family will not approve of you two being together."
"I don't need you to remind me."
Jiang Kuo assumed it was just student sentimentality, but the senior pushed open the door and said, "Wen Han!"
Wen Han calmed herself down a bit: "What's wrong?"
The senior student winked and said, "You should leave early tonight. I've already spoken to Dr. An."
After graduating, her senior also stayed at the hospital. He worked in the oncology department. Wen Han planned to go back to Dr. An's place after Chu Ji was discharged from the hospital, and at most come to the obstetrics department to help out when needed.
"ah?"
The senior student put his arm around Wen Han and patted him on the shoulder: "That handsome young man is still waiting for you."
Wen Han smelled the aroma of high-grade coffee beans on him, which was distinctly different from the 9.9 yuan coffee they usually drank, so she squinted her eyes.
The senior student gave a SpongeBob-like guilty smile: "Oh dear, you've been helping out here during the summer vacation without getting paid. Everyone feels bad about it. We should let you relax a bit once in a while."
He whispered urgently, "He's so handsome, why don't you just go for it! Let me tell you, the pressure on doctors is immense, we need to regulate our hormones and release more dopamine. Even if we don't touch him, just looking at his face is pleasing to the eye..."
Wen Han felt ashamed at the same time, but he also felt that what he said made sense. But who could understand his pain!
If I don't push Jingyu away, his despicable father will definitely cut off Jingyu's funding for studying abroad!
The senior student, having received a bribe from Delicious Coffee, simply helped Wen Han pack his things and pushed him out.
The senior rubbed his hands together, as if he had thought of something. He then handed Jiang Kuo another cup of coffee: "Hey, that handsome guy is quite thoughtful. He probably knows you're Wen Han's boss. He already brought over coffee, and ordered another one for you."
Jiang Kuo stared at the unfamiliar coffee cup on the table. After his senior left, he took out his phone and searched for the store.
Then, he threw the entire cup of coffee into the sink, and the rich aroma of coffee instantly filled the entire lounge.
As Wen Han walked to the hospital entrance, she suddenly became hesitant. The system said, "Host, charge!"
Wen Han: "?"
This little thing had been playing dead all day, and now it finally showed up. Just as Wen Han was about to confront it, Jing Yu honked the horn.
Wen Han suddenly remembered that Rong Jun had told him before the holiday that he should get his driver's license as soon as possible.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Wen Han didn't dare to look to the side at all; her eyes were fixed straight ahead, much more focused than when she was in class.
Jing Yu asked gently, "Is there anywhere you'd like to go?"
"I'm fine with either."
*
Wen Han was surprised that Jing Yu had come to the park where they had parted ways before.
"A new sour soup hot pot restaurant has opened here." Wen Han suspected that this was Jing Yu's revenge. Jing Yu said, "It's too hot. I think you'd like something more appetizing."
Wen Han didn't know how many sour soup hot pot restaurants there were in Lin Jin, since he had never eaten there before. He could only pretend not to know and say, "Okay."
The shop owner speaks with a strong regional accent, which means the shop is definitely authentic.
It was Wen Han's first time trying sour soup hot pot. She had always thought she only liked sweet food, but she didn't expect that sour soup would taste so good.
The air conditioning was on full blast, so the steam from the hot pot wouldn't hit anyone. Wen Han breathed a sigh of relief seeing Jing Yu's usual thoughtfulness; Jing Yu wasn't that bad after all.
Neither of them talked about their past, but instead discussed their lives in college. When Jing Yu heard that Wen Han had let the air out of someone's bicycle tires and had developed a phobia of acupuncture after being pricked by her doctor roommate, he smiled.
The atmosphere at dinner was great. Wen Han temporarily forgot his nervousness. Seeing Jing Yu smile, he was also quite happy and became much more lively in his speech.
Compared to his incessant chatter, Jingyu was noticeably quieter. But it had always been like this; Jingyu would mostly scoop cooked food into his bowl or smile as she poured him water.
Having eaten her fill, Wen Han put down her chopsticks.
Jing Yu looked out the window, and when he remained silent, Wen Han became nervous again: "Jing Yu, are you leaving in a few days?"
"Um."
Her heart felt like it had been churned with sparkling water. Jing Yu turned around without her noticing, and Wen Han was momentarily stunned by his smile.
Jing Yu asked, "Don't you want me to leave?"
