In the Eighth Hospital.
Seeing that it was almost time to get off work, Wendy couldn't suppress the excitement in her heart.
Today, Joanne was discharged from the hospital, and she had planned to go to Prime Villas after work to visit Joanne and the two little babies. She could also have dinner there...
But before she could implement her plan, Dr. Torres showed up by the door of the intern's office.
During this period, Dr. Torres had treated Wendy quite differently.
When other interns made mistakes, Dr. Torres just pointed out the mistakes at most and simply explained what the correct way was. Most of the time, the interns had to understand it on their own.
However, when Wendy made a mistake, Dr. Torres looked much more serious. He would seriously ask Wendy why she made such a mistake.
At the same time, when he was instructing Wendy, Dr. Torres was much more patient.
He would carefully analyze it for Wendy from the beginning to the end and try to find the reason for her mistakes. He didn't even mind teaching Wendy the right way personally.
In the end, he would also tell Wendy to be careful next time and not to make such mistakes again.
On the surface, Dr. Torres was cultivating Wendy.
It made sense. After all, Wendy was very talented, and her basic principles were more concrete than those of other interns.
But after a long time, it was inevitable that people would suspect that Dr. Torres had other thoughts about Wendy. After all, when a person cared about another person, his eyes would reveal some clues when he looked at her.
Some colleagues who were close to Wendy had reminded Wendy privately, but for Wendy, it looked like they had been thinking too much. She complained,
"You don't know how serious Doctor Xu was when he scolded me!"
The colleague thought for a moment and said, "It's called 'the more one loves you, the greater concerns he shows over you!'"
Wendy was speechless.
In addition to treating Wendy differently, Dr. Torres would occasionally come to the intern's office personally to look for Wendy.
When the interns saw Dr. Torres for the first time, they were surprised. But now, everyone was used to it. The girl closest to Wendy poked Wendy's shoulder and said, "Dr. Torres is here to see you."
Wendy subconsciously looked at the door of the office and was stunned. "Doctor Xu? Why are you here?" She was not narcissistic, so she didn't dare to think that Doctor Xu was here to see her like other colleagues.
However, Dr. Torres was really here to look for her.
"Are you going to get off work soon?" Dr. Torres asked.
Wendy nodded. "Yes."
"There is a patient's medical record. I want to discuss it with you. Are you interested?" After a pause, Dr. Torres added, "It's okay if there are other interns who want to participate. I welcome everyone to join."
However, everyone shook their heads and waved their hands.
"Doctor Xu, I haven't gotten off work yet!"
"Doctor Xu, I have to go with Doctor Liang to check on the patient in room 1108!"
"Doctor Xu, I have something to do today..."
Dr. Torres was very pleased in his heart. Although these students were young and had little experience in professional areas, they were all well-informed children in society.
"It doesn't matter. You should solve your own affairs first. I'll tell you later what is worth studying." Dr. Torres looked at Wendy and asked, "What about you?"
Wendy said unconfidently, "Doctor Xu, I have something to do today too..."
Dr. Torres hid his strange emotions and asked, "Oh? Are you in a hurry to go back?"
Wendy nodded. "My cousin got discharged from the hospital today. I'm going to her house to visit her."
"Well..." Dr. Torres said naturally, "Since none of you have the time, let's do it next time."
Everyone could only nod and say, "Okay."
"Wendy," Dr. Torres suddenly called Wendy's name. "You can get off work now. Are you leaving now?"
Wendy looked at the time and found that it was the exact time to get off work. She nodded and said, "Yes!"
"Then let's go together," Dr. Torres said, "I am leaving too."
There were many colleagues who could get off work, but no one mentioned leaving with them.
Wendy only felt that there was something strange about it, but she couldn't explain it. She could only take her bag and leave the office with Dr. Torres.
After entering the elevator that was only for medical staff, Dr. Torres pressed the button of the first floor and said, "If you want to go to your cousin's house, it's not convenient to take a taxi at this time. Shall I give you a ride?"
This time, Wendy finally realized what was strange-
Dr. Torres acted as if he was very familiar with her. It was like they were old friends who had been acquainted for a long time.
However, in fact, they were not so familiar that she could ask him to give her a lift!
While Wendy was thinking about how to refuse, the mobile phone in her bag rang at the right time. She smiled apologetically at Dr. Torres and took out her mobile phone.
Gavin's name was shown on the screen.
She picked up the phone without thinking. "Gavin?"
"It's me." Gavin's voice was leisure. "Are you off work?"
Wendy said honestly, "I just got off work."
"Perfect," Gavin said, "Your cousin-in-law asked me to pick you up. I'm almost at the hospital. Wait for me for a minute."
Between Gavin and Dr. Torres, Wendy chose the former without hesitation. She replied with a "hmm" and hung up the phone.
She smiled at Dr. Torres and said as naturally as possible, "My cousin-in-law has sent someone to pick me up."
Dr. Torres pondered for half a second and asked, "Is it the man who came to pick you up last time when I went to your apartment?"
Wendy didn't know if there was something wrong with her ability to understand, but why did she think that the first half of Dr. Torres's words could easily give the wrong impression to other people?
However, there was no one around. So it would at most make her misunderstand it-but it was meaningless.
Well, Dr. Torres probably didn't mean anything else. It was just her overthinking.
Wendy nodded. "He's a friend of my cousin-in-law!"
"What about you two?" Dr. Torres smiled slightly, and there was no sign of offense in his tone. He asked a blunt question very naturally, "Are you also friends?"
Wendy was stunned. She didn't have time to think why Dr. Torres asked such a question before she nodded and said, "Of course!"
Before the relationship of them being siblings was exposed, she and Gavin could only be friends!
Dr. Torres smiled and said, "I see."
Wendy was a little confused-
What did Dr. Torres know? And what was the meaning of his smile?
Before Wendy could come up with an answer, the familiar white Land Rover came right to them and stopped in front of her. The window of the driver's seat slowly lowered, revealing Gavin's handsome face.
Gavin saw Dr. Torres and nodded with a smile. Then he turned to Wendy and said, "Get in the car."
Wendy said goodbye to Dr. Torres, turned around, got into Gavin's car, and deftly fastened her seat belt. "Let's go."
Gavin rolled up the window and closed Dr. Torres's face, which he didn't like very much, outside the car. He asked Wendy, "Why are you with that guy surnamed Xu?"
"Surnamed Xu?" Wendy looked at Gavin angrily. "He is the deputy director of our hospital, the future expert professor! Be polite!"
"No matter how powerful he will be in the future, in my eyes, he will always be only a guy surnamed Xu." Gavin glanced at Wendy. "Is he pursuing you?"
Wendy was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why do you ask that?"
In fact, what she wanted to know more was how Gavin would react if Dr. Torres was really pursuing her?
Gavin hid the strangeness in his heart and said concisely, "Intuition."
Wendy curled her lips and complained, "Your intuition is not accurate at all! Dr. Torres and I just got off work together and took the same elevator to get downstairs!"
Gavin couldn't help sighing in his heart.
"The little girl looks very smart, but why is she still so simple?"
The elevator had been running for so many times a day, but why did Dr. Torres take the same one with her so coincidentally?
If he hadn't driven over, Dr. Torres would have proposed to offer her a lift next, wouldn't he?
"She's so stupid!"
Seeing Gavin sigh without saying anything, Wendy looked at him confusedly and said, "Why are you sighing?"
"Nothing." Gavin thought for a moment and said, "Don't trust him too much."
Wendy was confused. "Why did you tell me this?"
"Because you're stupid." Gavin looked at Wendy with disdain. "You look silly. It's easy to tell that you're gullible. A man who has evil intentions likes to pick on people like you."
Wendy snorted. "Doctor Xu is not that kind of person!"
Gavin found it funny. "Do you think he is a good person?"
"Of course!" Wendy didn't hide her admiration and appreciation. "Doctor Xu's character is as good as his medical ethics. This is not what I said, but what all the doctors, nurses, and patients in our hospital said! And I have already told you about him before!"
"Forget it." Gavin sneered. "Let me tell you, there are no such good men like you think in this world. Even if there are, they are more precious than pandas. You have never seen pandas in your life, have you?"
"..." Wendy grew up in Australia and actually had never seen a panda.
Gavin was very satisfied with Wendy's reaction and continued, "So, even if there is that kind of a good man, you have to be lucky enough to meet him. Obviously, you don't have that kind of luck for the time being."
Wendy looked at Gavin strangely and said, "There is a loophole in your logic. If I want to see the panda, I can ask for a fake ticket and fly to the place where there are pandas. It's not that I don't have the luck to see a panda, it's just that I don't want to see it, understand?"
"..."
Gavin pinched the space between his eyebrows and felt distressed.
"Damn girl, I just said she was stupid, and just now she proved her intelligence?"
Gavin glared at Wendy and said, "A panda is not the same as a good man!"
"There are seven billion people on earth, and more than half of them are men." Wendy shrugged her shoulders. "If they are not the same, in terms of quantity, the number of good men should be more than that of pandas."
"..."
Gavin didn't expect to hit his own foot by the stone picked up by himself. He was utterly speechless and had no way to refute.
He had guided numerous people and made countless speeches at the negotiating table, making countless people speechless, turning the unbelievable things into truths, and twisting the facts into waves.
A person like Wendy, who had special logic, must have been sent by God to punish him!
