章 46: 1.2.9: Their Conversation
As Qiang Yue slowed down his pace, they walked side by side around. Xiao Yunhua didn't like the awkward silence so she tried to start a conversation. "So how long have you been a doctor?"
Qiang Yue glanced at the small trying to start a conversation and he gently smiled. "A decade or so. Although I don't have as much experience as some seniors here in SX Hospital since I recently transferred over here."
A decade or so? But he looked so young! "How old are you?" Xiao Yunhua blurted out loud and then immediately muttered an apology afterwards. To ask someone their age, especially since they were technically strangers, how improper was she acting!?
Qiang Yue noticed the remorse in her shy eyes and his gentle smile didn't cease. "I'm thirty-two." He wasn't that old... was the first thought that popped inside of Xiao Yunhua's head. He was still in his prime time and Xiao Yunhua was surprised that he didn't have a girlfriend.
How did she make that assumption? Well for one, Xiao Taotao had told her. And two, she hadn't seen him get close to any girls thanks to her enhanced senses, including her observation skills. He was always politely reserved, keeping a fair distance between anyone of the opposite gender that he spoke with. This not only kept proper distances, but it also didn't allow for any rumors to float around.
According to the occasional times that she gossiped with Ling Qiu, Qiang Yue was immensely popular at the hospital and the dream lover of many of the single, and a few married, nurses. Many female patients would even purposely come here, just to be diagnosed by him. Thanks to this, the hospital had profited numerously.
But it was just his handsome looks. He was talented in his line of work and deeply was concerned for every patient of his, making him the ideal son-in-law for many of his elderly patients.
Xiao Yunhua was confused on how she was going to make such an outstanding man fall for someone like her. Despite being beautiful, her confidence was still low. This low confidence of hers was what kept her from boldly speaking to him like she would with Zhou Feng. As Zhou Feng had hurt her, she didn't mind speaking brazenly to him. But Qiang Yue was the honest man that had admitted to her Han Mi's condition despite going against his father's wishes.
"You're very young..." she mumbled extremely quietly, but somehow his sharp ears picked her words up.
"Miss Xiahu is young as well. Twenty-two, was it?"
Twenty-two? She was twenty-one... Xiao Yunhua's thoughts faltered. She had already had her birthday in these past three months and was already twenty-two. Wow... Time did fly, at least in her case.
"I guess. I think I missed my birthday while being in the sleeping beauty trance for the past few months." Even though she was disappointed that she couldn't celebrate her birthday with her benefactors and Mrs. Bao like always, she still joked around in front of the doctor to seem strong.
But despite her joking attitude, Qiang Yue still sensed her disappointment. As he didn't like for his patients to be sad, especially one that was suffering through depression and this instance didn't help her case, he decided to do something.
"Follow me," he suddenly said and began to stride forward. He saw that she was still rooted in the same spot, so Qiang Yue decided to be impulsive for once in his life and grabbed her hand, pulling her along...
