"If you have any questions, you can come to me at any time. I'm happy to help you."
No matter whether Noah's intention was good or bad, Wendy regarded his words as a provocation.
Wendy snorted proudly and said in a cold voice, "I don't need you to teach me. I've already figured out how to play the game!"
"It doesn't mean that you already know how to play it." Noah smiled and reminded Wendy. "This kind of game is like a test of people's operation and cooperation, not how much one knows about the game."
After that, he left the suite after finishing his task.
Wendy stared in the direction where Noah had left for a long time. Finally, she turned around to look at Gavin. "What... did Noah mean by that?"
Gavin was happy to have someone distract Wendy's attention, so he hurriedly put the blame on Noah. "He should be complaining that you don't know how to operate and cooperate."
Wendy's reaction was unexpectedly bland.
She just said, "I see. I will prove to Dr. Sanchez that I know how to operate and cooperate."
When she was angry, she would directly call Noah by his name.
She called him "Dr. Sanchez" again, which meant that she probably had calmed down.
Gavin vaguely understood that he had failed because he still had not successfully diverted Wendy's attention.
As it turned out, Gavin was right.
Wendy smiled, looked at Gavin meaningfully, and said slowly, "If I remember correctly, there is still one more thing to settle between us, right?"
Gavin braced himself and finally calmed down. He nodded and said, "If you want to, you can settle it now."
"Let's begin!" Wendy pulled over a stool and sat down aggressively. She looked at Gavin with burning eyes and said, "You just complained that we can't hang a "no-disturb" sign in the hospital as we do in the hotel. What did you mean by that?"
Gavin thought about it and found that she didn't mean to trick him by asking this question. He could answer it truthfully.
He said honestly, "Wendy, I didn't want to be disturbed when there were only two of us just now."
Wendy's smile suddenly brightened. She asked out of the blue, "Have you been disturbed before?"
She did mean to trick him with this question.
However, he had a countermeasure to deal with it.
Gavin decided to stick to the principle of "only talking about Wendy".
He said helplessly, "Wendy, have you forgotten that we have been interrupted by Noah several times merely while we're in the hospital? We've been interrupted countless times before."
Wendy thought about it and found that Gavin seemed to be telling the truth.
"Hey, I was going to get certain information from Gavin. Why did I just get trapped by him instead?"
Wendy secretly scolded herself for being disappointing and reminded him, "We've known each other for less than two years."
She wanted to know Gavin's story from two years ago.
However, Gavin had planned to keep those things before getting to know Wendy a secret. He would not mention them for the rest of his life if he could.
"Wendy, I love you." Gavin made his ultimate move. "If you had come to me when I first understood what love was, our story would have started earlier than a year ago."
The implication was that before he knew Wendy, his affairs had nothing to do with love.
He had always only loved Wendy.
Although it was not sweet talk, Wendy still couldn't help feeling a touch of sweetness.
In fact, she had already told him that she would not look into his past.
It was difficult to determine whether one was in the right or wrong when it came to one's previous relationships.
Time was passing, and people were changing. After Wendy met Gavin, he was no longer the playboy he used to be, who didn't love any women.
Gavin had begun to change. He had become the unique man she loved.
She deliberately mentioned the past just in order to make things difficult for Gavin.
Now, it seemed that she failed to do so.
Wendy returned to her usual careless look and pretended to be magnanimous. "I'll let you go this time since you're a patient."
Gavin quietly breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed Wendy's head. "It's time for you to review."
"Humph!"
Wendy backed out, sat down at the desk, and began to review the books.
The postgraduate entrance examination was around the corner. She and Noah's game competition should be put on hold for the time being.
After a whole afternoon of review, Wendy had just finished reading all the materials.
The next day, she opened the documents that Brian had given her and tried to do the previous years' exams to test her review results.
Gavin looked at Wendy's serious look and couldn't bear to disturb her. He silently watched some financial news and the movements of the financial industry.
In the afternoon, when Gavin woke up, he found Wendy sitting in front of the bed and looking at him without blinking.
He felt a little strange and asked in confusion, "Wendy, what are you looking at?"
Wendy rested her chin on her hands, stared at Gavin, and said bluntly, "I'm looking at you."
Gavin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Am I allowed to have crooked thoughts?"
"No. My intention is very upright. It will be too evil if you get it wrong!" Wendy handed a few test papers to Gavin. "I have finished the previous years' exams. Please help me to check the answers."
Gavin closed the exam papers and looked at Wendy up and down. "You can totally check this kind of answer by yourself. Why do you have to drag me into this?"
"I..." Wendy seemed to have lost her courage in an instant and said, "I'm afraid my answers are wrong. I don't dare to face it..."
Gavin was speechless.
Only then did he realize that Wendy was just nervous.
He touched Wendy's head, unfolded the test papers, and said, "Let's get it started."
Wendy spent the whole morning answering questions, but it only took less than an hour for her to check the answers.
The outcome of many things was like this. No matter how much effort one spent, the result would still appear openly when it was time.
Wendy put down the answer sheets and looked at Gavin uneasily. "How is it? How many questions did I answer correctly?"
"I did the math." Gavin said, "Your accuracy rate... is 93 percent."
The accuracy rate was enough to show that Wendy's basic training was very good.
"I'll definitely pass the postgraduate entrance examination!"
"Wow!" Wendy was stunned for a long time and finally dared to believe what she had heard. She suddenly threw herself into Gavin's arms and confessed loudly, "I love you! "
Gavin regarded Wendy's confession as a benefit. He touched her head with a smile and said, "I love you too."
"Let's celebrate!" Wendy held Gavin's face, kissed him directly, and said with a smile, "It's done!"
Gavin didn't know what to say.
He was confused for a moment before he understood. "So, when I was kissed before I could react, Wendy felt that the celebration was done?"
He stared at Wendy deeply and said meaningfully, "Wendy, I can accept an even more intense way of celebrating."
Wendy knew what Gavin was referring to, and she made a face at him. "Don't even think about it!"
If it were in the past, Gavin could have forced himself on her. Even if he couldn't pressure Wendy to submit, he could still demoralize the young girl.
But now, his physical condition did not allow him to do so.
It was the first time that Gavin had such a strong hope that the scalpel wound on his head could be healed quickly.
If it remained unhealed, the young girl would be able to bully him.
After the New Year, the festive atmosphere gradually faded. Instead, it was replaced by the usual fast pace of city life.
The large and small enterprises started to work again, and the people who temporarily left returned to the city where their dreams were, and the city was gradually filled with people.
Brian and Chris also went back to work. Joanne was mainly in charge of taking care of the two children and occasionally studied some business matters. Freya was busy with her personal brand.
By contrast, Wendy was the most relaxed one.
However, she was also the most nervous.
With nervous expectations, Wendy took the postgraduate entrance exam as scheduled.
Gavin had recovered a lot in the past few days, and his face was not as pale as before. He could handle some simple and less-effort-taking things.
On the morning of Wendy's exam, Gavin woke up early.
Wendy was still very nervous when she went to sleep yesterday. She had been grabbing his arm and felt uneasy about the exam. Gavin had spent a lot of effort to pamper her to sleep.
At this moment, the thin morning light illuminated her clean and beautiful face, and it caused her dense and long eyelashes to seem like butterflies that were about to fly. She didn't move at all, and she was obviously in deep sleep.
Gavin helplessly thought. "It seems that it's good to be carefree."
He got up, made a call to order Wendy's favorite food for breakfast, and looked at the time. It was only seven o'clock. He felt that it was not necessary to wake Wendy up so early, so he quietly packed up the things she needed for the exam.
It was 7:30 a.m. when he finished packing, and breakfast was delivered.
Gavin took the food first and then went back to the room. He pinched Wendy's nose to wake her up. "Get up."
If he didn't do that, Wendy would definitely pretend that she didn't hear his voice and wouldn't open her eyes for a long time.
Wendy felt aggrieved.
She was still asleep a second ago, but the next second, she was forced to wake up. She was still in a daze and protested a few times. Then, she turned over and tried to continue to sleep.
Gavin reminded her lightly, "Wendy, you need to take the exam today."
"Exam? What exam?"
Wendy thought for a long time, and a few words vaguely emerged in her mind - the postgraduate entrance examination.
"Uh... Postgraduate...
"Damn it! The postgraduate entrance exam!"
Wendy suddenly woke up as if she had been splashed with a bucket of ice water. She suddenly opened her eyes, sat up, and asked nervously, "What time is it now?"
"Half past seven." Gavin told Wendy not to be nervous. "It's not too late."
Wendy complained, "When did you wake up? Why didn't you wake me up earlier?"
"You slept late last night. I wanted you to sleep a little longer so that you won't be listless during the exam." Gavin put the slippers at Wendy's feet. "Alright now. Go brush your teeth."
