C21 (1/2)
After Xu Chencan ran upstairs, she somehow managed to walk to the window and peek downstairs.
Chu Lingyu's car had already left.
She touched her hot face, a little depressed.
Seriously, it was clearly an arranged marriage, how could she be shy about it …
Using the back of his hand to touch his cheek, Xu Chencan slowly walked up the stairs.
”What happened to your face?” Just as he turned the corner, he heard Xue Tianning's cold voice.
”Dr. Shay.” Xu Chencan quickly let go of his hand. ”It's nothing. It's just that it was a bit hot just now …”
Hot?
Looking at her red ears, Xue Tianning's eyes twinkled.
It was clearly the blush of shyness.
What did she do before she came?
At the thought that she might have been intimate with Chu Lingyu, Xue Tianning's gaze turned colder.
He ignored her and turned away.
Xu Chencan stared at his back in confusion.
Although Xue Tianning's personality was always mild, she could feel that he was exceptionally aloof today.
She didn't provoke him, so it was really strange …
Xu Chencan shook his head and walked towards the locker room.
She didn't notice that Xue Tianning had stopped in his tracks at some point and was looking at her back with a complicated expression.
In order to get his marriage certificate, Xu Chencan took an hour's leave of absence in advance. Thus, when he arrived at the hospital, it was already 9 in the morning.
She had only needed to check in and prescribe medicine today.
However, Xue Tianning had an operation at ten o'clock and wanted Xu Chencan as his assistant.
Without another word, Xu Chencan changed into a new set of clothes and entered the operation room.
It was a simple operation.
In the end, Xue Tianning handed the work of stitching to Xu Chencan.
While she was sewing, he stood by the side and quietly watched.
Xu Chencan's stitching was both skillful and precise.
When she was done, she turned her head to look at Xue Tianning, only to discover that his eyes were fixated on her body instead of on her hands.
In that look... It was as if there was something different about his emotions.
She was startled.
But before she could think of anything else, Xue Tianning had already shifted his gaze away. ”Nice seams.” It was a very ordinary affirmation.
However, Xu Chencan was already very happy.
Xue Tianning was a picky eater, and the fact that he could confirm her words meant that her skills were not bad.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Chencan had forgotten about his strange gaze. After happily thanking him, he finished cleaning up and went out to wash his hands.
After washing her hands, she changed her clothes and prepared to go for lunch.
Just as she stepped out of the door, she saw Xue Tianning standing by the door, watching her.
”Dr. Shay?” She was a little confused. ”Why are you here?”
He had finished his work long ago, so he should have gone to the cafeteria by now.
”Waiting for you.” He said flatly, ”Let's go.” With that, he walked to the front.
