Chapter 15: First Direct Encounter with the Human Body
Su Wanwan took a sip. "It's indeed well-made. Was it ground by hand?"
I never expected Professor Xie to be so romantic.
“Hmm,” Xie Yanning said, “You rinsed it before you came.”
Su Wanwan looked over and saw that the coffee machine faced the window, and in front of the window was the place where she had just picked up her clothes.
If he weren't blind, he could see it with just a glance.
"..."
Xie Yanning also looked over, "..."
The air was deathly silent.
The memories of her dead began to attack her again.
"This coffee is good, can I have another cup?" Su Wanwan calmly finished her drink in one gulp and asked.
Xie Yanning smiled gently, "Okay."
Fortunately, her phone rang at that moment, saving her from dire straits.
Yang Lewei asked her on the other end, "When are you coming?"
Su Wanwan rubbed her leg, thinking it would be fine soon. She said, "I might be a little late. No need, I can go there by myself."
"Shao Chenghua is so busy, why did you still ask him to come over? Alright, alright, I can just take a taxi myself."
After Su Wanwan hung up the phone, Xie Yanning asked, "With your leg like this, can you still attend the wedding tomorrow?" Bridesmaids are usually exhausted after a long day.
"It should be fine, it won't affect anything."
"Where is the hotel? I'll take you there," Xie Yanning said. "It's not easy to get a taxi around here."
"Isn't that unnecessary?"
"You fell in my house, so I have to take some responsibility, both morally and legally."
Su Wanwan: "..."
“Tianhan International Hotel,” Su Wanwan said softly.
"Tianhan International?" Xie Yanning said softly, taking out his phone. "Is it on Fengyang Avenue?"
Tianhan International is a large chain of five-star hotels, with more than one in Beijing.
When asked, Su Wanwan was unsure and quickly took out her phone to confirm, "Yes."
"What a coincidence! The wedding I'm attending tomorrow is also being held here. Let's go together this afternoon."
Su Wanwan never expected it to be such a coincidence.
I remember that Xie Yanning refused Shao Chenghua's offer to attend the wedding, and at the time I thought it was just an excuse, but I didn't expect it to be true.
"Is it convenient?" Su Wanwan's knees weren't hurting as much anymore.
I remembered seeing Zhang Yunqing trying on bridesmaid dresses that day. I guess the two of them were attending the same wedding, and it must be inconvenient to bring her along.
"If there's anything inconvenient, I'll go by myself." Xie Yanning said with some surprise, looking at her legs, and asked, "But are your legs really okay?"
"I'm a doctor myself, I know what I'm doing." Su Wanwan observed for a moment and thought there shouldn't be any problems. "Let me see your first-aid kit, I'll see what's appropriate."
Xie Yanning placed the medicine box on her lap, opened it to show her, and asked, "Would Yunnan Baiyao work?"
"Can."
Xie Yanning handed it to her, and Su Wanwan took it. She still couldn't move her leg much and needed to apply ice again.
Xie Yanning, worried she might be bored, handed her a tablet. "Want one?"
As soon as Su Wanwan had some free time, she felt a little itchy to do something. "Thank you."
She logged into her cloud drive, where she had downloaded a surgical video by a renowned surgeon. Seeing that she wanted to watch the video, Xie Yanning said, "You can play it aloud, it's fine."
Since that's what everyone says, Su Wanwan didn't hold back.
Besides, surgical videos don't usually have much sound.
In such a quiet space, it would be better to have more human voices.
Xie Yanning didn't know what she wanted to see at first. When he took out his laptop, he took advantage of his height and good eyesight and accidentally glanced at it.
The image shows an open chest, clearly showing the heart beating strongly.
"..."
Professor Xie, a science and engineering major, was facing the structure of a living human body for the first time.
Upon first seeing the surgical video without any blurring, even Professor Xie, who is usually quite calm, was taken aback.
It's true that different professions are like different worlds.
Su Wanwan was engrossed in the surgical video and didn't notice Xie Yanning at all.
Xie Yanning looked at Su Wanwan for a while, a smile appearing in his eyes, and then sat down beside her.
He felt he should adapt sooner.
However, given the scene he just witnessed, along with the sounds of medical equipment, he decided to read a student paper to calm his nerves.
He is supervising master's students, and they have just submitted their thesis proposals.
However, Xie Yanning frowned as he looked through the book, and finally couldn't help but rub his high nose bridge with his hand.
The student papers were even more alarming.
At the same time, he kept an eye on the time and, seeing Su Wanwan's engrossed state, gently reminded her, "You've had enough time; you need to stop for a bit."
Apply ice for no more than half an hour, then stop and wait a while before applying it again.
Su Wanwan snapped out of her daze and paused the video. "Oh." She removed the ice pack from her knee, and the bruises inside had faded a bit, making it look less terrifying.
She sprayed some Yunnan Baiyao on herself.
I bent and stretched my leg, and it didn't hurt anymore.
"It doesn't seem to hurt too much anymore. I'll go back and lie down for a bit." Su Wanwan struggled to stand up for a while, then frowned, still feeling a little pain.
"I'll take you back." Xie Yanning stood up, saw her frowning, and said, "I'll carry you up. Trying to climb up will only cause further injury."
Seeing that Su Wanwan seemed reluctant, he asked, "Are you afraid I'll take advantage of you?"
"..." Su Wanwan chuckled dryly: "Of course not, Professor Xie is a man of noble character."
"That's fine then."
Before she could finish speaking, Xie Yanning picked her up and carried her in his arms. Yuanxiao, who had been sleeping peacefully to the side, immediately sat up and followed Su Wanwan when she saw her leaving.
Su Wanwan stopped making futile struggles.
One shouldn't have such dirty thoughts. Professor Xie was just helping others out of a sense of joy; anyone would have done the same.
Su Wanwan's front door was on the other side, and Xie Yanning carried her up in the elevator.
The two remained silent the entire way.
Su Wanwan held her breath, as if every time she breathed less, she would lose a few points in weight.
Carrying someone for dozens of meters is quite tiring.
She weighs 100 pounds.
Xie Yanning, without blushing or panting, looked at her in the gleaming elevator light and said, "You can breathe, I can still carry you, breathing won't add much weight."
Su Wanwan looked at herself in the elevator: "..."
Her face was a little red, and her eyes were misty from holding her breath, making her look pitiful.
She closed her eyes, deciding to stop looking.
The room was on the fourth floor, so they went straight upstairs.
Which one is your room?
Su Wanwan pointed in the direction.
When she placed him on the bed, their breaths inevitably mingled, and she could even see herself reflected in Xie Yanning's pupils.
Su Wanwan quickly moved back a bit, trying to get away from the ambiguous atmosphere.
Thank you.
Xie Yanning straightened up, her eyes darkening slightly. "Then you should get some rest. Come and wake me up when you go to the hotel this afternoon."
Su Wanwan gave a soft "hmm".
After everyone left, Su Wanwan's heart pounded, and she began to breathe heavily.
She slapped her face a few times; beauty really can be a trap!
Wake up, Su Wanwan, that's a married man!
I really need to watch the surgery video to calm down.
Surgical video?
Surgical video!!!
