MTL - The Sweetest Thing In the World-Chapter 55 reject
Shen Fei was frightened: "Did you fight with someone?"
"Suppressed unilaterally!" Min Yue complained aggrievedly, saying how Dr. Song could pretend to be cute, how delicious the porridge he cooked, how Xu Mai turned his elbow out and drank half a bowl of porridge.
Shen Fei sensed the truth from just a few words, and through brain supplementation, she restored the incident of "the love rivals are extremely jealous when they meet each other". Stop others from liking her."
Min Yue sat down on the bench, hissed and gasped, her **** hurt when she fell just now. Rubbing unhappy, eyebrows twisted into a character horoscope, and asked: "Then what should I do?"
"You can change your mind." Shen Fei gave a rather challenging suggestion, "Let Director Xu only like you."
Min Yue remained silent. If I had the ability, I would have lived together with Master long ago. Do I still need to fight Dr. Song? Sighing, he said quietly: "It's too difficult, is there anything easier to achieve?"
"Ah Yue, I actually think... Director Xu doesn't have feelings for you at all."
"Huh?" Min Yue was stunned.
"Don't you realize it yourself? Director Xu treats you differently than he treats others."
I know, but what if Master treats me well just because I am her apprentice?
Both ends of the balance trembled, for a while "Master has a good impression of me" prevailed, and for a while "I was wrong" prevailed. Min Yue held the phone nervously, unable to make up her mind.
Shen Fei guessed that she would hesitate, so she urged: "Why don't you try it out? Director Xu will notice sooner or later that you have behaved so abnormally recently, so why don't you just go with the flow and try it out."
"How to test it?" Min Yue was completely blank in this regard, and asked for advice foolishly.
Shen Fei has rich experience, and she immediately gave many suggestions. Min Yue clamped the phone with her shoulder, wrote quickly while listening, and wrote it down carefully in a small notebook.
The calendar flipped page by page, day after day, and before he knew it, Xu Mai had been resting in bed for two weeks.
New Year's Day came and went quietly, which did not bring too much festive atmosphere to the First Affiliated Hospital, but increased more patients. Because the Chinese New Year is coming up next month, many people rushed to the hospital before the year to treat their old diseases and welcome the New Year in good health.
Correspondingly, the workload of the ward has increased sharply. From the director to the intern nurses, everyone is so busy that they can't even touch the ground, and they can't wait to break a second into two halves.
The chances of Min Yue to see Xu Mai decreased a lot. She was off the night shift and was busy working in the cardiac surgery until the afternoon. She rushed to the hospital bed with a can of white fungus and lotus seed syrup.
After eating liquid food for several days, Xu Mai recovered well, and gradually began to eat solid food that is easy to digest. Every time Min Yue came to see her, she would bring different food, sometimes mung bean porridge, sometimes tofu soup, sometimes change the taste, and have a vegetable platter.
Xu Mai lay still every day and ate three meals regularly. He felt that he had gained a lot of weight. When he lowered his head, he could even feel a layer of soft flesh on his chin.
Min Yue obediently sat on the small bench and gnawed on the apples. She was wearing a loose thick sweater, round and fluffy, like a little hamster. But the little hamster is not as innocent and happy as before, and always looks preoccupied.
Xu Mai reached out and touched her face. "You've lost a lot of weight."
Min Yue blushed, like a red apple one size bigger. He raised his eyes and glanced at Xu Mai, his eyelashes flickered, with a shy expression.
"Cory has been very busy recently. If you are too tired, go back and rest." The small face was haggard and tired, which made people feel unbearable. It was a rare day when she didn't have to go to work, so Xu Mai wanted to let her go back to have a good rest and replenish her strength.
Min Yue said, "I'm not tired, I want to stay here with Master."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Xu Mai pitifully, and asked, "Does Master think I'm annoying?"
In order to compete with Dr. Song for favor, she went to the Department of Gastroenterology whenever she was free, offering courteousness in different ways. But Xu Mai loves to be clean, and she is afraid that if she doesn't control it well, she will go too far and make the other party upset.
"No." Xu Mai smiled lightly, his gaze as deep and peaceful as a lake. "I'm glad you can come with me."
Min Yue pursed her lips and smiled happily.
It may be that he was suddenly idle and not used to it, Xu Mai felt that his state was not right recently. Colleagues are very busy and wring out all the water in the sponge, but she feels that the days pass very slowly. The papers and magazines that she had to read in the past, but now she has a lot of time, but she can't get up the energy, flips through a few pages, and then puts them down.
Diagonally opposite the ward is Building No. 10 where the Department of Cardiac Surgery is located. She always stares out the window, aimlessly in a daze.
At eight o'clock, it's time for the morning meeting. A few surgeries will be arranged today. Who will Min Yue perform the surgeries with, and whether he will be the first assistant or the second assistant.
At eleven o'clock, the laboratory department came out with the results, and there were a lot of test sheets to be printed, so Min Yue would post it with a bitter face until his hands were sore.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the food in the cafeteria is almost completely cold. Has Min Yue eaten? She seems to like the braised pork ribs at window 7 very much.
At 5:30, it's the closing time of the outpatient clinic. Is the ward still busy? What did Min Yue prepare for today?
Today... will she come?
Xu Mai leans on the bedside, watching the sun rise like salted egg yolk from the sea of clouds, he will think of the white porridge and salted duck eggs brought by Min Yue yesterday; watching the evening clouds gather together, and the setting sun will cover the sky with orange sunset glow, he will think of The tomato egg drop soup sent by Min Yue the day before yesterday.
The hour hand hanging on the wall crawled slowly like a snail, and Xu Mai experienced emptiness and loneliness for the first time, which could not be relieved even by reading literature and doing scientific research. And when Min Yue appeared in front of the door with an insulated lunch box smiling, the whole ward was lit up in an instant.
She didn't understand why, but she was looking forward to Min Yue's arrival every minute.
"Master, drink quickly, it's getting cold." Min Yue saw that she had been concentrating on her thoughts and forgot to drink sugar water, so she reminded her aloud.
Xu Mai suddenly came back to his senses, and responded with a smile, scooped up a spoonful and put it into his mouth. The white fungus has been stewed for a long time, it is soft and slightly sweet, and it melts gently in the mouth. The sweetness extends from the tip of the tongue to the bottom of the heart, and the warm heat makes the stomach unfold comfortably.
Xu Mai is not good at cooking, but she knows that even if the ingredients are the same, everyone's food tastes different. A little more sugar makes it sweeter, and a little more water makes it bland. People's mood and personality will all affect the taste of the finished product.
The food made by Min Yue is just like herself, warm, sweet, like gurgling hot spring water, gently enveloping you.
After drinking a bowl of sugar water, Xu Mai felt that his heart and stomach were full, and his gaze became softer, as if honey had been added.
Worried that Min Yue was too tired and lacked sleep, she persuaded Min Yue to go home.
Min Yue hugged the empty lunch box reluctantly: "Master, I will come to see you early tomorrow."
"Well, I'll wait for you."
After Min Yue left, the light in the ward dimmed again, as if someone had turned off a light in his heart. Xu Mai felt a little lost, and opened the medical journal, trying to divert his attention.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, Xu Mai looked up in surprise, Min Yue is back?
The door was pushed open, and it wasn't Min Yue who walked in, but Director Zheng.
Xu Mai's smile dimmed, and he said politely, "Director."
Director Zheng strode to the hospital bed with a file bag in his hand, as if he had encountered some happy event, and was so happy that he didn't even notice Xu Mai's loss. "I think you look pretty good. How long do you want to stay?" Director Sun said.
"I have basically recovered, and I can be discharged from the hospital in two days." Actually, Xu Mai wanted to be discharged from the hospital a long time ago, but Director Sun of the Department of Gastroenterology refused to approve.
"That's good, that's good." Director Zheng opened the file bag and took out several printed materials. Each A4 paper was neatly clipped with a paper clip, and a color photo was attached.
"This is?" Xu Mai took a few glances, saw a few lines of personal resumes, and thought that the Department of Cardiac Surgery was recruiting new recruits.
Unexpectedly, Director Zheng handed over the materials and said with a smile on his face: "I heard that you are willing to go on a blind date. My old lady was very happy. She mobilized her old sisters and found some for you. I took a look, these young men The conditions are quite good, there are bank managers, university professors, IT company executives, all have cars and houses, and they are also energetic. You can see which one you think has a good eye, and when you are discharged from the hospital, arrange to have a meal together."
That's what it meant. Xu Mai suddenly felt that this stack of materials was like a hot potato. She had already promised Min Yue not to go on a blind date. She dared not accept it, but it was not easy to refuse directly. After all, it was the elder's wish.
"Aren't you shy?" Seeing that she didn't answer, Director Zheng took out a copy and introduced it: "I think this is the most suitable for you. The director of the Oncology Department of S City People's Hospital is in the same industry and has a common topic. I can understand and support your work. The oncology department is relatively less busy, earns a lot, and has the time and ability to take care of you.”
Xu Mai listened quietly, with a polite expression, showing no interest.
Director Zheng introduced several other excellent candidates. Seeing that she had been silent, he asked, "Not satisfied? We old people may not have the same vision as you. Do you think something is inappropriate?"
Xu Mai said: "It's not appropriate..."
"Which aspect is inappropriate? Tell me, I'll let the old woman look for it again." Director Zheng was very enthusiastic.
Xu Mai hesitated for a while, since he decided not to go on a blind date, he should make it clear so as not to make the old man worry in vain. But it's a bit tricky to go back and forth like this, and it's not good. Director Zheng supported her a lot, she didn't want to hurt her elders, so she didn't know what to say for a while.
At a loss for words, he suddenly remembered the jokes he had seen on Weibo, Xu Mai weighed it quietly, and felt that this excuse was not bad, and it could be done once and for all, the old man would not continue to help her.
Director Zheng looked at Xu Mai and waited for her reply. The latter looked away and said softly, "The gender is inappropriate."
As if he didn't hear clearly, Director Zheng frowned and confirmed: "Personality?"
Xu Mai repeated it, and focused on the second word: "Gender."
"Gender...inappropriate?" Director Zheng didn't seem to understand. He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, raised his eyebrows suddenly, and understood.
It's hard to go into too much detail about this matter, the hand holding the document bag trembled, and Director Zheng asked meaningfully: "You...huh?!"
Xu Mai lowered his gaze, and said quietly and firmly, "Yes."
