"Oh wow . I can"t relate to that at all because I was very much raised middle cla.s.s in the suburbs, but I can imagine what that could be like . It must have been difficult . " Nolan looked at her with a soft looked to his eyes . It was strange to think that a doctor like this would be vulnerable around him . But, now that he had seen this side of her, he did still find himself drawn to her . "I think I can understand why you left . You would not be fulfilled with a life where you couldn"t help people . Money doesn"t impress you if it"s not your own . You were bored out of your mind before you left that life behind you . "
Advertis.e.m.e.nt"Sort of . I think if you have to live without challenges, what"s the point? My mother couldn"t be more horrified . " Wu laughed . "She is the type who thinks women should suffer on behalf of their men . She would always tell me to go after the biggest playboys so then I would get to be spoiled . She always thought I was going to get married to some conglomerate type from our social circles . She was convinced I would make a great match than all of my sisters . My sister did take her advice and you know they all have dyed their hair to hide the stress . They"re trying very hard to hold on to their youth . I am apparently going to redeem them all, even though my father thinks that is ridiculous . "
"She had your best interests at heart, I hope . "
"Oh, she definitely does . She is misguided, but very very true in her love for us . " Wu took the plastic bag from Nolan"s hands and put it into the fridge under her desk . Nolan heard the clink of gla.s.s whiskey bottles which made him cringe . Wu seemed to find his discomfort amusing . "You know I can call you a taxi, I"m not really in the mood to go out after this .

Nolan shook his head reflexively . He didn"t need her to do things for him . He pled his case . "I"m a college student so it"s not like anyone is going to jump me . I don"t have much to lose . I also have lived in the city for a long time . It"s not dangerous as long as I stay on the main streets . "
"I may have been raised in the countryside, but I know that the area around here is dangerous . I"m not just going to let you leave like this without a proper send off . " Wu took her keys off the hook on the wall . "It"s not like NYU is that far away from my place anyways . "
"Yes, Dr . Wu, if it"s that way I don"t mind . " Nolan bowed his head to hide his secret smile . He couldn"t believe his ears at his luck . He felt his heart beating loudly under his palm in excitement . Nolan tried to look anywhere but her, to keep the goofy smile from lighting up his face .
