As Qiang Yue slowed down his pace, they walked side by side around . Xiao Yunhua didn"t like the awkward silence so she tried to start a conversation . "So how long have you been a doctor?"
Qiang Yue glanced at the small trying to start a conversation and he gently smiled . "A decade or so . Although I don"t have as much experience as some seniors here in SX Hospital since I recently transferred over here . "
Advertis.e.m.e.ntA decade or so? But he looked so young! "How old are you?" Xiao Yunhua blurted out loud and then immediately muttered an apology afterwards . To ask someone their age, especially since they were technically strangers, how improper was she acting!?
Qiang Yue noticed the remorse in her shy eyes and his gentle smile didn"t cease . "I"m thirty-two . " He wasn"t that old . . . was the first thought that popped inside of Xiao Yunhua"s head . He was still in his prime time and Xiao Yunhua was surprised that he didn"t have a girlfriend .
How did she make that a.s.sumption? Well for one, Xiao Taotao had told her . And two, she hadn"t seen him get close to any girls thanks to her enhanced senses, including her observation skills . He was always politely reserved, keeping a fair distance between anyone of the opposite gender that he spoke with . This not only kept proper distances, but it also didn"t allow for any rumors to float around .
According to the occasional times that she gossiped with Ling Qiu, Qiang Yue was immensely popular at the hospital and the dream lover of many of the single, and a few married, nurses . Many female patients would even purposely come here, just to be diagnosed by him . Thanks to this, the hospital had profited numerously .
But it was just his handsome looks . He was talented in his line of work and deeply was concerned for every patient of his, making him the ideal son-in-law for many of his elderly patients .
Xiao Yunhua was confused on how she was going to make such an outstanding man fall for someone like her . Despite being beautiful, her confidence was still low . This low confidence of hers was what kept her from boldly speaking to him like she would with Zhou Feng . As Zhou Feng had hurt her, she didn"t mind speaking brazenly to him . But Qiang Yue was the honest man that had admitted to her Han Mi"s condition despite going against his father"s wishes .
"You"re very young . . . " she mumbled extremely quietly, but somehow his sharp ears picked her words up .
"Miss Xiahu is young as well . Twenty-two, was it?"
Twenty-two? She was twenty-one . . . Xiao Yunhua"s thoughts faltered . She had already had her birthday in these past three months and was already twenty-two . Wow . . . Time did fly, at least in her case .
"I guess . I think I missed my birthday while being in the sleeping beauty trance for the past few months . " Even though she was disappointed that she couldn"t celebrate her birthday with her benefactors and Mrs . Bao like always, she still joked around in front of the doctor to seem strong .
But despite her joking att.i.tude, Qiang Yue still sensed her disappointment . As he didn"t like for his patients to be sad, especially one that was suffering through depression and this instance didn"t help her case, he decided to do something .
"Follow me," he suddenly said and began to stride forward . He saw that she was still rooted in the same spot, so Qiang Yue decided to be impulsive for once in his life and grabbed her hand, pulling her along . . .
