Chapter 71: Just More Dates
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Room 723, that idiot.”
Huo Xian said resignedly. He stubbed out his cigarette and stared at Mu Anan, “Do you believe me if I told you that he wanted to kill himself?”
“Yes, I do.” Mu Anan blurted out.
Huo Xian’s cynical expression was a little surprised.
Mu Anan answered seriously, “The patient in Room 723 has a history of self-abuse. During the day, Dr. Chen met with us and found out that the patient in Room 723 was not only manic but also delusional. Sometimes he would hurt himself to prove that he was being victimised and then he would start causing trouble.”
These were the symptoms that Mu Anan had learned about after class and when she returned home.
She had promised Seventh Master that since she had chosen medicine, no matter what position she was placed in, she would be worthy of her choice.
…..
Moreover, Mu Anan still remembered the way Seventh Master stared at her when she chose medicine after her third year of high school.
She didn’t know what kind of gaze it was.
It seemed to be a bit hot, a bit restrained, and also very intense…
Mu Anan could not find an accurate adjective to describe her feelings at that time, but she was certain that she would become a good doctor.
It didn’t matter what story was hidden in Seventh Master’s eyes.
Mu Anan had said so much, but Huo Xian remained silent.
When she raised her head in confusion, she happened to meet Huo Xian’s gaze.
Huo Xian had been staring at the girl, but Mu Anan suddenly raised her eyes and caught his gaze.
At that moment, he felt a little uneasy. He shifted his gaze and pretended to cough, but he was so embarrassed that he did not know how to respond.
He simply found Mu Anan’s frank look to be quite attractive.
Just as Huo Xian was about to start a conversation, Mu Anan said, “How about you tell the director about this?”
“Hmm?”
“Some leaders are coming to visit the hospital recently. The hospital was worried that the matter would blow up, so the matter of stealing the medical records has been under internal investigation. It shouldn’t matter if you take the initiative to admit it. You’re often a jerk anyway, and they take it as a prank.”
“You even found a reason?” Huo Xian found it funny.
“Now the matter of the patient in Room 723 has appeared. If you keep denying it, things will snowball and get out of hand, and in the end, you will even not know how to explain it yourself.”
Mu Anan gave her advice. She got up from the stairs and walked down.
Huo Xian was still sitting on the spot. He didn’t reply, nor did he have any intention of getting up.
Mu Anan did not mind.
The matter of stealing medical records and injuring people could be considered solved.
As for whether Huo Xian would continue to steal, confess to the director, or do something else, Mu Anan would not interfere. She had already given her opinion, and it was up to him whether to listen or not.
“I’ll leave first. I’m on duty.”
Mu Anan waved her hand and opened the door to the emergency exit.
Just as she walked out, Huo Xian’s voice rang out, “Hey.”
Mu Anan turned around.
The light outside was bright, but the light inside was dim. Huo Xian, who was sitting on the steps and staring at his golden curly hair, was much dimmer. Only the stars of smoke could be seen.
After about three seconds, Huo Xian’s voice rang out, “You’ve been helping me so much since the first time we met. Do you like me?”
“No.” Mu Anan replied cruelly.
“Ok.”
Huo Xian replied with a single word but deliberately dragged out the last syllable.
Mu Anan was baffled and did not intend to respond. However, another sentence sounded behind her.
“It’s fine if you just admire me. Don’t love me.”
“Idiot.”
Mu Anan responded without mercy and could not be bothered with him anymore.
After leaving the corridor, Mu Anan bumped into the nurse on duty and chatted with her about the situation in the ward at night.
However, she did not mention anything about Huo Xian.
Mu Anan returned to her office and called Zong Zhengyu.
“I’m sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off…”
How could he turn off his phone?
Mu Anan raised her hand to make sure that she didn’t make a mistake.
She called again, but it was still switched off.
This was Seventh Master’s private phone number. Very few people knew about it. Seventh Master had also said before that this number would not be switched off.
Therefore, Mu Anan was very confused when she suddenly received a reply that her phone was switched off.
She was looking at his WeChat.
After she explained that she was talking to Huo Xian, there was no reply from Seventh Master
Mu Anan: “Seventh Master?”
Mu Anan: “Seventh Master, your phone is turned off. I’m done talking.”
She sent two messages over and received no reply.
Mu Anan made another video call, but there was still no response.
She started to panic.
She was going to call Luo Sen to find out what was going on, but in the end, she chose to give up.
Mu Anan did not want to appear too clingy to Seventh Master, except in front of him.
He must be busy, right?
As Mu Anan thought about this, she put down her phone and forced herself to divert her thoughts.
The time for her rounds was over, and she was ready to focus on her studies.
She also sent a message to Huo Xian, asking him to tell her briefly about his mother’s situation.
Huo Xian: “Why? Are you helping me?”
Mu Anan said: Hurry up.”
Mu Anan: “Arc you sure you want to tell me the reason why you stole the medical record?” There were medical records on this computer. If you sat here quietly for a few hours, no one would do anything to you.
Huo Xian: ‘junior, I have always been off the beaten track. Don’t obsess about me.”
Mu Anan: “Piss off.”
After that, Huo Xian did not send Mu Anan any messages about her mother, and Mu Anan did not ask further.
She wanted to help, but Huo Xian had his thoughts. She did not care and focused on her studies.
At 7:30 am, her colleagues came over to change shifts.
Chen Hua specially brought breakfast for Mu Anan, “Let’s eat together before going back?”
Mu Anan agreed readily.
She was indeed hungry after a night of work.
She took the meat buns and soy milk and added, “I plan to bring some snacks over from home later. Otherwise, I’ll be too hungry tonight.”
“You had better not be on night duty. I just heard that there seemed to be a thief who stole the medical records yesterday. It’s not safe. We are interns and can make requests with the director.” The fatty girl was worried.
Mu Anan, who knew the truth, waved her hand, “It’s fine. It’s quiet working the night shift, and I can use the hospital’s computer. I can learn a lot.”
“You’re as studious as ever.” Chen Hua smiled ruefully.
Mu Anan shrugged.
“By the way, why arc we talking about this? Let’s talk about your meal with Huo Xian. I haven’t had the chance to ask him in person before.” Mu Anan started gossiping.
…..
When she called earlier, she had been listening to Chen Hua talk about her thoughts but did not mention the process of eating.
When Mu Anan asked this question, the fatty girl immediately blushed.
Chen Hua was fair, and her face was especially plump. When she blushed, she looked rather white and tender. She was super cute, and Mu Anan could not help but pinch her.
“If I were a man, I would chase after you.”
“But you’re not. No one is chasing me.”Thc little fatty felt very inferior and sad when it came to such matters.
She sighed, “Actually, I was so nervous throughout the meal that I forgot about it. He didn’t talk much, so I didn’t dare to talk with him. I was too nervous just eating.”
“Then it’ll be fine if you have more dates.” Mu Anan blurted out and took a bite of the meat bun.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, a voice sounded behind her..
