Chapter 307 - Both Pupils Were Equal in Size (Part 3 of 4) (1/2)
“How do you know?” Zheng Ren was surprised.
“Nothing a single guy like you would understand,” Su Yun said, “What did you see in the girl’s eyes?”
“Eyes?” He tried his best to recall.
There was nothing unusual about her eyes. Pupillary light reflex? He had not performed the test on her, but the reflex pathway ought to be responsive. Furthermore, there were no constrictions on her pupils, both of which were equal in size…
At Zheng Ren’s confusion, Su Yun barked, “You must be thinking about her pupils being of equal sizes!”
“Yeah, what else?” Zheng Ren was perplexed.
“Bah!” Su Yun was left speechless and looked at Zheng Ren with pity.
His gaze was sorrowful, as if that of deities and Buddhas who had descended to earth and looked upon mortal suffering.
“…”
“Can’t you see the girl’s dreamy eyes yearning for romance?” Su Yun said after a few seconds of silence.
“No…”
There was no book that could teach Zheng Ren how to see such a thing.
In the inst.i.tution called society, Su Yun would be a top student and graduate with perfect scores.
“Let me put it this way; what time did your dormitory close during your school days?” Su Yun asked.
“Ten.”
“That’s all there is,” Su Yun chuckled and said softly, “Didn’t you notice that the girl checked her phone three times within ten minutes after your consultation?”
“I did, but I thought that was insignificant,” Zheng Ren said.
“Anything unrelated to illness would be deemed useless to you, right?” Su Yun was aghast.
“You could say that. We’re doctors; what else would we do other than treat diseases? Practice physiognomy?”
“Why did you threaten the boy on the operating table yesterday, then?”
“To treat his blindness,” Zheng Ren argued.
The more Su Yun said, the more Zheng Ren believed the man’s judgment. The girl was pretending to be ill and waiting for their dormitories to close at 10 p.m.
Where would these two youngsters go if their dorms were closed?
How lovely, Zheng Ren thought to himself.
Why was Xie Yiren not this forward? He had gathered the courage to offer her a hug twice but had been rejected both times…
Su Yun crept up to him as he ruminated, smirking and whispering, “Are you shamelessly wondering why Little Yiren doesn’t take the initiative?”
Zheng Ren was stunned. Could Su Yun read his mind?
“How shameless can you be? Can’t you take the first step?” Su Yun berated him angrily.
“I did make a move, twice even, but she blew me off both times,” Zheng Ren said in embarra.s.sment.
“You should keep at it. Start by holding hands. Do not rush. Little Yiren is quite shy and grew up in a strict household. You can’t jump right into hugs,” Su Yun said, “One step at a time. Also, are you aware of the move where you corner her by placing your hand on the wall?”
“Yeah.” Zheng Ren nodded.
As a young adult in the modern era, even though he had never made the move before, he had seen it in videos online.
“You can try it if you get the chance. Girls like Little Yiren have high compliance. You only need to be slightly more aggressive, erm… like the way you take control of the operating table. You’ll be able to handle ten Little Yirens.”
Operating room… simulation mannequins… Zheng Ren’s thoughts ran wild into the unknown like an unleashed dog.
A voice interrupted his fantasies. “Doctor.”
He turned around and saw the girl still holding her stomach, but straight-backed with no visible signs of pain.
Zheng Ren checked the time. It was exactly ten o’clock.
“I think I’m feeling better,” she said, blus.h.i.+ng.
