Chapter 37: 037 Lu Han’s Silly Brother Bai Dingxian_1 Chapter 37: 037 Lu Han’s Silly Brother Bai Dingxian_1 “Doctor Lu, I have arranged to meet Sun Qing later to go to Qimeng Restaurant and find the owner, so I’ll be leaving first,” Tang Su said to Lu Han. “Thank you, Doctor Lu, for treating my ear, and for treating me to such a delicious lunch today. Next time, it will be my turn to treat you.”
“You’re welcome.”
Jiang Shanshan: “…”
Is Tang Su going to see her cousin again?
The video wasn’t even released by her cousin, so what is up with this girl?
Of course, Tang Su wouldn’t explain the situation to Jiang Shanshan. She was merely protecting her rights as a citizen. If everyone’s privacy could be so easily exposed without any reprimand towards the perpetrator, wouldn’t everything become chaotic?
Tang Su took the stairs to the first floor and then left the hospital through the main entrance.
Lu Han also chose to take the stairs. Going from the first to the second floor was quite straightforward.
Jiang Shanshan, in her high heels, followed beside Lu Han. When Tang Su was there, it was not convenient for her to explain to Lu Han, but now that Tang Su had left, Jiang Shanshan quickened her pace to walk alongside him.
“Lu Han, the situation that day wasn’t orchestrated by me on purpose, and I had no idea that everyone would be absent, as if by some arrangement,” Jiang Shanshan just hoped that Lu Han wouldn’t listen to Tang Su’s nonsense.
That Tang Su was truly scheming, bringing up that day’s incident out of the blue.
And doing it in front of Lu Han, insinuating that her good time had been interrupted.
“Doctor Jiang, whether it was intentional or not doesn’t matter. After all, in the end, I had to leave early for other matters, didn’t I?”
“Don’t worry about it.”
Lu Han was still cold and distant towards her.
Jiang Shanshan felt uncomfortable, especially since she had called Lu Han at noon today. How could he let Tang Su answer his mobile phone—a very private object?
If there was really nothing more than a doctor-patient relationship between Lu Han and Tang Su, there was no reason he should have allowed Tang Su to casually handle such a private item, right?
Yet, Jiang Shanshan couldn’t figure out what else could be between them apart from the doctor-patient relationship.
She had known Lu Han for nearly three years and had never seen him be intimate with any woman.
Jiang Shanshan bit her lip, steeling her heart, “Lu Han—”
Just as Lu Han was about to turn around, he heard the emergency room’s broadcast paging for him, “Doctor Lu Han, please come to the emergency room immediately!”
It played three times.
“Doctor Jiang, I have to get to the emergency room. We can talk later,” he said.
“Okay, go on.” Jiang Shanshan understood and immediately returned to her post.
Without even putting on his white coat, Lu Han rushed to the emergency room.
However, when he arrived at the emergency room, flustered, Bai Dingxian was there with a group of young doctors and nurses gathered around the reception desk, cracking seeds, sipping on milk tea, and laughing their heads off.
Lu Han’s expression immediately turned cold, even though there were still a few minutes left before his official shift started. Were these people bored with nothing better to do?
Was the emergency room’s broadcast just a tool for their amusement?
Moreover, their emergency department operated on a 24-hour rotating shift system, so there was essentially no concept of clocking out and taking a break.
When one group’s shift was up, the next group had to be ready to take over immediately.
With Bai Dingxian looking so composed, it just irritated Lu Han even more.
Their relationship was good, but as a close brother, Lu Han would definitely point out where Bai Dingxian was wrong and wouldn’t be afraid to offend him.
However, this time, before Lu Han could speak up, Bai Dingxian clasped his hands together in a gesture of respect, “Okay, okay, okay, Lu Han, I was wrong, can you stop looking at me with those icy eyes? It makes someone scared.”
“Hahaha…”
The crowd of onlookers immediately burst into uproarious laughter.
“Stop laughing, can’t you see Doctor Lu is really angry? A bunch of blind fools,” Bai Dingxian turned around and scolded.
Lu Han was speechless; he felt that the most blind fool was indeed Bai Dingxian.
His parents really didn’t make a mistake naming him; this guy was truly a pain in the ass.
“Lu Han, I really didn’t mean to mess with you on purpose just now. I saw that Jiangy sticking to you like a plaster, I was just trying to help.”
These words were whispered to Lu Han by Bai Dingxian, close enough that no one else could hear.
It was said that Jiang Shanshan was the daughter of the vice-president of another hospital in Hua City—probably to avoid suspicion, or, of course, it might be that Jiang Shanshan herself was indeed very skilled in medicine. In any case, Jiang Shanshan existed like a goddess in their Huanan Hospital.
But—
She was just the goddess of Huanan Hospital, not the goddess of Hua City. Neither he nor Lu Han would necessarily care about the goddess of Hua City, let alone Jiang Shanshan.
Bai Dingxian really felt that Jiang Shanshan was not worthy of their great male god, Lu Han.
Her status was just not up to par.
Of course, her status might be low, but if Lu Han liked her, then there would be nothing to say. The key was that Lu Han had no feelings for her at all, yet she still had such a high opinion of herself, time and time again throwing herself at him, which was really too much.
As for Bai Dingxian’s kind intentions, Lu Han truly felt they were utterly unnecessary.
If it hadn’t been for Bai Dingxian’s interruption earlier, Jiang Shanshan might have impulsively confessed her liking for him, and he could have openly rejected her, telling her that he had someone he liked, completely disheartening her.
Without the other party even confessing their feelings, he would be a real nut to run off and tell others not to fall for him, to no avail.
“You’re really meddling too much. Nothing’s wrong here, right?” Lu Han glanced at him, and seeing that he indeed meant well, didn’t bother to argue with him.
“Nothing’s wrong, but even if there was, I can handle it myself.” Having worked in the emergency department for some years, Bai Dingxian knew exactly which department’s doctors needed to be informed and collaborated with during emergency situations—he was absolutely adept at it.
“In the future, don’t play jokes with the intercom; that sort of joke isn’t funny.”
“Yes, Teacher Lu, your guidance is good. I’ll heed your teachings,” Bai Dingxian replied.
“Get lost.”
After Lu Han left, something came up in the emergency department right away, and Bai Dingxian, along with the duty medical staff, were back to their non-stop busyness.
Just then, on Bai Dingxian’s set-aside phone, Old Tan sent him a photo of Lu Han and Tang Su. Old Tan wanted to confirm with Bai Dingxian whether the girl in the photo was really Lu Han’s girlfriend.
Having offended his wife, Old Tan had no choice but to chat with Bai Dingxian, but Bai Dingxian was also too busy to pay attention to him.
By the time Bai Dingxian finished dealing with emergency department matters, three hours had passed, and it was the normal off-work time for other departments, but they had to continue, and take turns quickly going to buy boxed meals.
Today, it wasn’t Bai Dingxian’s turn to buy boxed meals. During the downtime waiting for dinner, Bai Dingxian, exhausted, lay down and, upon picking up his phone to scroll, saw the photo and text Old Tan sent three hours earlier.
“Fuck.”
Bai Dingxian had barely finished swearing when he fell to the floor from where he was lying.
Damn, his ass really hurt!
