"Co." Cao Yong patted the seat beside him, inviting Xie Wanying to sit down, and said, "I brought out your bowl of noodles."
Had Senior Cao anticipated her coming to look for him? Xie Wanying sat down, a hesitant look flitting across her face as she glanced at Senior Cao’s profile.
"Do you have sothing you want to ask ?" The dimple at the corner of Cao Yong’s mouth deepened as he smiled.
Seeing Senior Cao’s expression, Xie Wanying boldly asked, "Senior Cao, who bought the noodles?"
When she first saw the takeout bag in the doctors’ office, it looked familiar, resembling the one from the shop where her childhood friend had brought her late-night snacks last ti. Wu Lixuan had admitted it herself; the shop closed relatively early at night, and she had made arrangents with the familiar owner in advance to bring the late-night snack over.
Senior Brother Huang was busy greeting the teachers, so she ca to ask Senior Cao.
"You guessed right," Cao Yong told her.
Xie Wanying was startled. Why would Li Xuan suddenly co to the hospital? Did Senior Cao specifically call her to bring over late-night snacks? Definitely not.
"Doctor Yin is on the night shift tonight," Xie Wanying said tentatively.
"Yeah, I asked her about it, and she said she heard Doctor Yin ntion that you were on night shift tonight. You hadn’t told her and she didn’t know, so she brought late-night snacks for you. I happened to et her and asked her to buy a few more to treat everyone." Cao Yong explained the sequence of events.
So her childhood friend ca to visit Doctor Yin on his night shift, bringing him late-night snacks, and also brought a delicious bowl for her.
"They are dating," Xie Wanying was surprised and happy for her friend. The last ti she stumbled upon them eating together, it felt like they had a romantic inclination toward each other.
It would be best if her friend could thus overco her past psychological shadows.
"Senior Cao, does it an that her heart’s wounds are healed?" Xie Wanying turned her head and consulted Senior Cao.
The junior sister was treating him like a love expert. Cao Yong smiled while he pondered how to answer this overly tricky question. To be honest, he had never been in a relationship before either.
Suddenly, Zhang Shuping butted in, saying to her, "You’re asking him? He doesn’t understand this stuff. My grandma often says he wouldn’t know how to chase a girl."
Had she asked the wrong person? Xie Wanying was taken aback, but that wasn’t right, Senior Cao had previously made accurate judgnts about her childhood friend’s condition.
Cao Yong wiped his forehead with his hand: How could he possibly not know how to chase a girl?
Zhang Shuping, who plainly didn’t believe what he said, continued to quote his grandmother, "My grandma heard from sowhere; if he were to chase a girl, he’d only educate and instruct—"
Probably Teacher Lu heard from Li Xiaobing, who leaked the news, that Cao Yong invited a girl over to his place for a al and ended up teaching her how to use 3D software.
Cao Yong placed his hand on Zhang Shuping’s shoulder to shut the kid up and turned back to his junior sister, "Did you eat the chocolate?"
Who says he can only educate and instruct, he gave chocolate, too.
"I thought about it later and decided to leave the chocolate in the departnt because Senior Brother Huang said it was from Senior Cao to reward everyone," Xie Wanying reassured him.
Cao Yong was nearly scared out of his wits: What on earth had Little Fool done?!
Just then, Huang Zhilei ca looking for them and walked to the door. Hearing this last bit of the conversation and seeing that sothing was off with Senior Cao’s expression, he thought to himself: Oh no, did I do sothing wrong?
When he gave the chocolate, the junior sister wasn’t alone; he didn’t know what to say on behalf of Cao Yong. He had no choice but to follow Cao Yong’s usual practice and tell the junior sister that it was from Senior Cao treating everyone.
