14 Liling, My name is Chang Ming (2/2)
”Is it wrong, Chang Ming asked as he creased his brows.
”No, no, just that you are a very busy person so...”
”I'm a very busy person, but I still have time for my friends ”
Chang Ming cut in and Liling chuckled dryly. She never remembered being too close to Chang Ming to be referred to as a friend. Chang Ming excused himself and answered a call, after sometime he hung up and apologized.
”Liling, I'm sorry, but I have to leave now, there is an issue in the hospital, could we meet some other time? ”
”Okay, Liling, could you please give me your phone number, so if I come next time I'll be able to reach you?”
'Whoa whoa, why do I meet such persistent people, isn't it obvious that I don't want to speak with him?' Liling thought in her mind but her expression said a different story altogether. With a very wide fake smile she said
”Sure Nurse, you can have it, but I'll be busy these few months, my exams are almost here” She intentionally added.
Chang Ming smiled as though he didn't notice the point she was making, he continued tapping on his phone, taking down the numbers she was calling out.
”Liling, my name is Chang Ming, not nurse. Nurse seems too distant, okay” he said as he smiled gently ”So I'll see you later, do take care of yourself”.
He gently tapped her shoulders. Liling stifled at his touch, she watched as he entered his car, bade her a goodbye and drove off.
”What have I gotten myself into? ”
