Chapter 836: [(836)] Photo at Senior Tao’s home Chapter 836: [(836)] Photo at Senior Tao’s home Before parting, Xie Wanying found Senior Brother Huang and entrusted him, “I’ve put the medicinal wine and the hot water bottle for Senior Cao in the tote bag in the car. Senior Brother Huang, could you please take them out and put them in Senior Cao’s home first.”
Cao Yong, who was walking behind, heard this and hurried up to her, “You really brought them.”
“Senior Cao, as Senior Zhu said, you should get used to people caring for you.” Xie Wanying had become smarter now and borrowed the words of her senior to say this.
Cao Yong’s smile was tinged with a touch of helplessness. Thinking about her utterly warm gesture, he felt incredibly touched. His handsome eyes seemed to melt like ice cream in the sunlight as he walked alongside her and asked, “What do you feel like having for lunch? I have fish and shrimp at home.”
“Either is fine. Whatever you, Senior Brother, like to eat.”
“So you’ll eat whatever I like?”
“I just think they all sound delicious.”
Though the little junior sister’s honest mouth wasn’t sweet, her words warmed the heart. Cao Yong had decided to cook her a fish and stir-fry some shrimp when they got home.
After sending Senior Cao and Senior Brother Huang off, Xie Wanying took a detour to join the other doctors in her group and followed Senior Tao to his home for a meeting. As for Second Senior Sister, she obediently followed behind them, constantly chattering away, “Senior Tao, I’m afraid I’m not professional enough as an instrument nurse. I might affect their performance. You should find someone professional.”
“No one expects you to be professional, just like you don’t expect me to be professional,” Tao Zhijie stood at the elevator entrance, addressing her, “Are you coming up with us?”
She had no choice. Heaven knows what traps that Buddha had in his home. He Xiangyu gave her little junior sister a meaningful look: Be extremely cautious when you go to his house. Then she slipped away forlornly.
Watching Second Senior Sister’s retreating figure, Xie Wanying followed her seniors into the elevator. They reached the second floor in a moment.
Upon entering Senior Tao’s home, she saw the layout was similar to others in the same complex, with several rooms and living areas, very spacious. Each home’s decoration style revealed the owner’s personal touch.
For example, in the living room, there was a curio shelf filled with plenty of photos. She thought that Senior Tao was interested in photography, but upon closer inspection, no, they were all group photos with colleagues.
“Xiao Qiu, go boil a kettle of water in the kitchen,” Tao Zhijie instructed, “Xiao Song, go get my laptop from the study.”
Qiu Ruiyun and Song Xueling went their separate ways to fetch the items. Tao Zhijie went to the living room to grab a tin of tea leaves, looked up, and seeing his little junior sister engrossed in the photos on the curio shelf, couldn’t help but chuckle, “See anyone you recognize?”
“Yes,” Xie Wanying was quite surprised; it seemed Senior Tao had group photos with many people from the hospital, even with Teacher Tan and Teacher Fu.
“Many are from the annual hospital celebration gatherings,” Tao Zhijie explained.
Xie Wanying’s gaze settled on a particular photo that seemed a bit special. It was a picture of four people, with an elderly couple in the middle and Senior Cao and Senior Tao standing behind them.
“Yingying,” Tao Zhijie glanced at the photo she and he were looking at, and said, “Could you introduce me to these two types of tea leaves? Your friend brought these for me, and I still can’t tell them apart.”
Hearing Senior Tao speak, Xie Wanying promptly came back, “I’m not very knowledgeable about tea. Li Xuan has been helping her family sell tea since she was young. I only know the simplest categories: green tea, black tea, white tea, dark tea.”
“Teacher Tao, the water has boiled. Shall we prepare tea?” Qiu Ruiyun asked, coming out with the kettle.
