Su Wantang pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "What?"
"Wantang, I have something else to tell you."
He recovered quickly, which made her seem like she had never seen the world.
Su Wantang hummed twice in dissatisfaction and opened the door.
"Speak, what is it?"
"I didn't have it easy..."
That sounds familiar.
The next second, Su Wantang heard Lu Huai'an's voice, barely audible.
"Let's develop some feelings for each other at the movie theater..."
Movie theaters...to cultivate relationships...
Thinking of that night when they almost kissed, Su Wantang's face, which had just cooled down, suddenly flushed red again, turning a peachy pink.
When Lu Huai'an saw Su Wantang like this, his Adam's apple bobbed: "...Unforgivable."
"Stop talking." Su Wantang glared at Lu Huai'an shyly.
"I'm going to go to bed."
Bang.
The door closed, ruthlessly blocking Lu Huai'an's view.
Back in his room, the sweet scent of Su Wantang from the previous night still seemed to linger. Lying on the bed, Lu Huai'an, unusually, was not sleepy.
The restlessness that had just been suppressed in the courtyard was beginning to resurface.
Half an hour later, Lu Huai'an came out of the bathroom and before he even entered the house, he heard arguing coming from the courtyard gate.
"If you want to go, go and call them. I'm not going this time."
Liu Hu was very stubborn and no matter what Zhou Qing and Wu Xu said, he was determined not to go.
You can't blame him. Lu Huai'an, who was jealous last night, dragged him into a long ideological and political lecture. Liu Hu is a rough and uncultured guy who hates reading. This was more tiring than being punished by running twenty laps.
"Old Wu?"
"What did you say? I'm a little hard of hearing, I can't hear you."
Wu Xu was honest, but not stupid.
In the dead of night, when the couple was locked in a fierce battle, he must have lost his mind to call for the battalion commander.
With no other option, Zhou Qing had to take matters into his own hands.
He was just about to bark like a dog to lure Lu Huai'an out when the courtyard gate was suddenly opened.
Startled, Liu Hu spread his hands and shouted, "Battalion Commander, I didn't do anything!"
Zhou Qing, with his sharp eyes, noticed Lu Huai'an's still-dripping hair and felt the cold steam hitting his face. An alarm bell immediately went off in his mind, and he kicked Wu Xu.
"Are you stupid? Speak up."
Wu Xu didn't notice anything unusual: "Battalion Commander, it's an emergency mission."
Lu Huai'an raised an eyebrow: "Wait a minute."
After turning around and leaving a letter for Su Wantang, Lu Huai'an hurriedly went off on his mission.
The next morning, Su Wantang was taken aback when she saw the letter on the table with the words "Wantang, urgent mission, return date uncertain" written on it. She felt a sense of melancholy.
But after a short while, she composed herself and went to work.
Su Wantang had just put on her white coat and walked out of the changing room when she bumped into Su Yue, whose face was dark and sour.
"Su Wantang, don't be so smug!"
"You think you can bewitch Huai'an with just a seductive face? Let me tell you, it's only temporary. Sooner or later, Huai'an will realize that only an excellent doctor like me is the most worthy of his wife."
Su Wantang: ? ? ?
Are you sick?
She smiled and said, "Thank you for praising my beauty. After all, being a seductress requires talent, and I don't think you'll ever have that talent in your life!"
“An excellent doctor? Let me correct you, we’re both medical assistants now, and you’ve been in the hospital for four or five years, right? I’ve only been here for a month or so.”
"Su Wantang!" Su Yue cried out in a helpless frenzy.
Su Wantang pushed her into the door behind her: "Make way, a good dog doesn't block the way!"
Perhaps because she had provoked Su Yue too much at the changing room entrance earlier, Su Wantang found Su Yue to be unusually proactive, trying to show off at every turn.
Su Wantang didn't try to steal the spotlight from her. When learning something, she would quietly take notes, and when she was on the operating table, she would carefully observe from the side.
Having been in the operating room twice, Su Wantang understood very well that their job, though called assistant, was actually no different from that of a maid serving tea and water—just doing odd jobs.
At the beginning, I was unfamiliar with the equipment, so there was something to learn.
So Su Yue took over all the hard work, and Su Wantang was overjoyed.
There were no major surgeries today, mostly minor ones, but there were quite a few.
Soon, the morning had passed.
When Xu Feng entered the operating room again in the afternoon, he couldn't help but frown when he saw Su Yue, who had been busy all morning, approaching him again.
"Su Wantang, it's your turn this afternoon."
"Yes, Director."
Having dealt with Xu Feng for some time, Su Wantang had come to understand his personality. He didn't like office politics and preferred to deal with things objectively and fairly. For example, right now, he felt that one person shouldn't be left to do all the work.
But Su Yue misunderstood this.
She protested, "Director, what did I do wrong?"
Xu Feng was taken aback by the question: "No."
"Then why was it my turn to get off?"
“Su Wantang is clumsy and learns things slowly. What if she accidentally hands over the wrong equipment and causes an accident? Who will take responsibility for that?”
Xu Feng was speechless for a while. After Su Wantang's poor performance in the operating room that time, she immediately went back to study and has now been in the operating room as a medical assistant several times. What problems could there be?
Moreover, to be honest, Su Wantang's eyesight is far superior to Su Yue's. Sometimes, before he even speaks, the correct equipment has already been handed over. Of course, Su Wantang doesn't just guess randomly.
Xu Feng had observed that Su Wantang would only act this way if she had undergone similar surgeries. She must have rehearsed the surgical procedure many times in private to be able to hand over the instruments so accurately.
Most importantly, she is not arrogant and will never be reckless in surgeries she has no experience with.
He only brought up Su Wantang to avoid favoritism, but Su Yue interpreted it as him being irresponsible towards the patients and disregarding human life.
"Su Yue, are you questioning my decision?" Xu Feng's voice was slightly deep.
"Director, I'm raising a reasonable question! You can't condone her behavior just because her husband's grandfather is a high-ranking official! She's a capitalist's daughter! A bad element who almost got demoted! What if..."
