Cao Yong’s outstretched hand held the hand that was helping him with the napkins.
Xie Wanying stared at him in bewilderment, unsure of what was happening.
Cao Yong’s other hand was pressed against his forehead, as if he was thinking, ‘What should I do? This extraordinarily intelligent little junior in medicine seems completely clueless when it comes to emotions.’
As a neurosurgeon who studied the human brain, Cao Yong found himself somewhat helpless when it came to dealing with his little junior’s natural naiveté.
All of his classmates had noticed that his eyes were filled with deep affection whenever he looked at her.
However, it seemed that the little junior hadn’t noticed at all.
Cao Yong wondered if confessing his feelings directly might scare her away.
After some thought, Cao Yong raised his head and asked her, “Why do you want to become a doctor?”
“Becoming a doctor is a very fulfilling thing,” Xie Wanying replied. She had already given the same answer when the class monitor asked her the same question.
However, Cao Senior Brother’s reaction was different from that of the class monitor.
“Fulfilling,” Cao Yong pondered these two words, thinking that his little junior was genuinely innocent. Fulfillment also came with worries, like how he was currently entangled in the realm of love, experiencing happiness and concerns every day.
At this moment, Xie Wanying looked puzzled as she watched Cao Senior Brother’s expression because he appeared to be forcing a smile.
“Do you have a more specific reason?” Cao Yong asked her again.
A more specific reason? It was her grandfather and her mother, wasn’t it?
Xie Wanying fell silent.
When she didn’t respond on the opposite side, she resembled the lonely moon in the sky.
Cao Yong furrowed his brows and couldn’t resist extending his hand to touch her cheek gently.
“Senior Brother?” Xie Wanying was startled.
At this moment, her phone started ringing.
Xie Wanying turned around, took out her phone, and saw that it was a call from home. Worried that something might have happened to her mother, she quickly answered, “Mom—”
“What do you mean, ‘Mom’? I’m your father. I want to know what’s going on. You have a cellphone now? Neither your mother nor I have a cellphone. Where did you get a cellphone? Where did you get the money to buy a cellphone? I’ve said before that we don’t have the money to support your education. Did you use our money to buy a cellphone?” Xie Changrong’s voice was forceful as he questioned his daughter.
Sun Rongfang rushed over and grabbed the phone from her husband, saying, “What do you mean we don’t have a cell phone? Didn’t you buy a cellphone for yourself? For the past few years, Rongfang hasn’t asked for a single penny from our family. She pays for her tuition and living expenses with her scholarship. The cellphone was also awarded to her by the school.”
“I’ve asked around, and I’ve never heard of schools awarding students with cellphones,” Xie Changrong argued.
“Rongfang is different; she’s studying to become a doctor, and she needs a cellphone.”
“You believe in her nonsense!”
“Why wouldn’t I believe her? She’s my daughter! She got into the best medical school in the country, while you didn’t even finish primary school!”
His wife’s words hit Xie Changrong’s sore spot. He was so angry that he wanted to fight his wife, but he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to beat her.
“Ying Ying, don’t worry, focus on your studies, and don’t listen to your dad. If you have time during the Spring Festival, we can plan a trip. If you ever need anything, Mom will take care of it!” Sun Rongfang took the opportunity to comfort her daughter, reminding her to take care of herself. “By the way, Li Xuan came to see you. I asked her to bring some preserved meat for you. If you enjoy it, Mom can send more.”#pleasereadatwondernovels.com
Xie Wanying’s nose felt a bit stuffy, and she sniffled as she replied to her mom, “Mom, it’s delicious, but you don’t have to send more.”
“Silly child, if you like it, just say so. I know you can’t get good home-cooked food over there,” Sun Rongfang said. “Tomorrow, I’ll have Li Xuan come back and help me, and we’ll send you some more food. You can’t do without it.”
