In the operating room, Zhou Can entered about ten minutes early as usual, getting ready for the surgery.
"Hi, Dr. Zhou, good morning!"
Tang Ling always seems to be the first person to enter the operating room.
But that's understandable, after all, there's a lot of pre-surgery preparation work for nurses to do.
Preparations for various instruments, medications, and consumables all take time.
"Seeing you smile so happily, are you in love?"
Zhou Can asked with a smile.
"I wish I was, but no handsome guys are asking me out!" Tang Ling's remark must be a self-deprecating joke. She's pretty good-looking, and in these days of more men than women, even 'dinosaurs' have their admirers.
Surely she would have even more.
"Do you know why I'm smiling so happily? It's because my favorite female singer Su Qianqian, who went silent for a while, is back! Her new song has topped the charts! Seeing her return means she's recovered from the impact of the last stage collapse incident. I'm really so happy."
Tang Ling is an absolute die-hard fan of Su Qianqian.
She's happier to see Su Qianqian overcome the hurdle than if she had won a big prize herself.
"I've noticed it recently too. Hey, no kidding, Su Qianqian's songs are really nice to listen to."
Dr. Lu just walked into the operating room and heard their discussion about Su Qianqian, so he joined the conversation.
Dr. Lu has really changed a lot lately.
Although he's still unreliable, flirting with this girl or that nurse from time to time, he hasn't been late to work anymore and arrives a few minutes early.
He's also become much more serious about performing surgeries.
His surgical skills, such as suturing, hemostasis, and debridement, have improved significantly.
Dr. Xu never used to praise him.
Now he occasionally gives him a compliment every once in a while.
Even Doctor Fu said that Dr. Lu's surgical skills had greatly improved.
Competition has pushed him to progress.
A strong will to succeed has given him a completely different attitude towards his work.
"Hmph, now you know it's good! When I recommended her to you before, you didn't believe me."
Tang Ling said proudly.
"Not only do her songs sound good, but the real person in the MV looks super pretty. A goddess of that caliber, sigh... If only I had tens of millions, assets over a hundred million, perhaps I could try pursuing her."
Dr. Lu is really like a toad lusting after swan meat.
Like he could stand a chance with Su Qianqian, it's just daydreaming.
"Dr. Zhou, didn't she once send you a box-set of her albums? Is that new song from the Internet one of the songs from her new album?"
Tang Ling has a really good memory.
She even remembers that.
"Should be, I'm not too sure."
Zhou Can replied vaguely.
"Su Qianqian gave Dr. Zhou an album? How come I don't know about this?"
Dr. Lu's ears perked up instantly.
"Dr. Zhou, did she leave her contact info? I'd be willing to trade five big meals for it." Dr. Lu stretched out five fingers.
He really dares to dream.
How could Zhou Can possibly give his future wife's contact information to this kind of man?
Without a second thought, he flatly refused.
"Ah, what a pity! If she comes back for a visit next time, none of you should compete with me!"
Dr. Lu is looking forward to such a good thing happening to him next time.
He believes that if he gets such a good opportunity, he could definitely get Su Qianqian's contact information.
"Hehe! Dr. Lu, are you no longer pursuing Qiao Yu?"
Tang Ling teased him with a laugh.
"She completely ignores me, I can't catch up if I tried! I think a nice girl like Qiao Yu will end up going cheap to Dr. Zhou in the end."
Dr. Lu said this with some frustration.
Qiao Yu is not like other easy-to-fooled young girls.
She really doesn't give him a chance at all.
"The new surgery nurse Song Chunyan is not bad either! I've seen you two chatting and laughing."
Tang Ling, who seemed quite sincere, never made a peep when Dr. Lu scolded her before. Unexpectedly, she could gossip just as much as Ye Tingting when it came to it.
It seems that all women have a gossiping heart.
"Don't mention it, I've already invited her to western dinners so many times and haven't even held hands."
Dr. Lu wore a bitter gourd face.
Hearing this, Zhou Can almost laughed out loud.
Such girls should indeed be around to put Dr. Lu in his place.
That Song Chunyan appeared shy and easily embarrassed, Zhou Can had been worried that she would be deceived by the rotten Dr. Lu.
Now it seems like it's hard to say who would deceive whom.
Soon after, Qiao Yu and Song Chunyan entered the operating room.
Since Tian Tian was dismissed by Zhou Can, Song Chunyan became the backup surgery nurse.
"Hi, everyone, good morning! I heard you guys laughing so happily just now, what were you talking about?"
Qiao Yu greeted everyone with a smile.
Her gaze was especially different when she looked at Zhou Can.
"Dr. Lu says it's too hard to chase after you, not giving him a single chance. He also said that in the end, it's most likely going to be a bargain for Dr. Zhou."
Tang Ling really knows how to speak out.
She even told this to Qiao Yu.
Really admire her 'emotional intelligence.' Sometimes, it feels like she's just a little girl who never grew up.
Besides being serious at work and having good professional skills, she's really quite direct when it comes to speaking.
Of course, she's never said anything hurtful or abusive.
"Dr. Zhou doesn't fancy me at all!"
Qiao Yu looked at Zhou Can with a bit of grievance.
The women's sixth sense is the most powerful.
She could feel that Zhou Can and her were just close ordinary colleagues.
Even though it's something that nobody has explicitly stated.
