In stark contrast to the petrified Ji Jie Rui was the excited discussion among the girls in the class.
Qin Xiao stood at the podium, glanced down briefly, and then began a simple self-introduction before starting the lecture...
By the end of class, Ji Jie Rui went from initial petrification to being captivated by Qin Xiao's lecture, and by the time class ended, he felt he'd lost to him, and it was quite a glorious defeat.
As soon as Qin Xiao walked out of the classroom, the room exploded; the girls hurriedly picked up their phones to message their friends. Unfortunately, none of them dared to take pictures earlier, so there were no photos of the professor's divine looks...
Meanwhile, at the hospital, after a busy morning, Xiao Li finally found some time to grab a meal with Dai Zihan...
In the cafeteria, Dai Zihan lay weakly on the table. "Little Li Li, I feel like I might put my life on the line."
Xiao Li burst out laughing at this, handing over a yogurt. "If you want to lay down your life, first fill your stomach. Drink this yogurt, and eat your meal first..."
Dai Zihan groaned, grabbed the yogurt from Xiao Li, and drank it quickly...
After drinking half the bottle in one go, she indignantly said, "Little Li Li, why am I so unlucky to meet a mentor teacher who's a walking powder keg.
These past two days, his constant nitpicking has made me question my entire life. Am I really that bad?
During every exam at school, I've never failed a subject; I've passed them all in one go...
So why am I making mistakes everywhere now?"
Xiao Li unscrewed the yogurt bottle cap, took a sip, and then said, "Although Dr. Shao is quite strict with you, I've seen these days how he's guiding you and pointing out many things to you.
Most of the mistakes you're making now are things we've learned in school, and you keep making some routine errors, so it's inevitable that Dr. Shao gets upset...
Actually, have you ever thought why you can't seem to do anything in front of Dr. Shao despite knowing you can do these things?
You're just too nervous.
Believe me, if I were to test you somewhere else with someone else, these mistakes wouldn't happen...
Instead of wondering if you're truly that bad,
why not think about how to adjust your mindset?"
Dai Zihan listened and silently poked at her rice with chopsticks. She knew everything Xiao Li said was true; she was indeed too nervous.
But she couldn't help it!
Dr. Shao is her mentor teacher, and he has the final say on how her internship is going.
So whenever she's in front of Dr. Shao, her mind goes blank, and she doesn't know what to do?
After Xiao Li finished speaking, she silently continued eating. Some things needed to be figured out by the person involved.
Besides, Xiao Li thought it was good for Dai Zihan to follow Dr. Shao. Though strict, he's willing to teach Dai Zihan without holding back.
The doctor Xiao Li follows, Dr. Yang, though gentle, doesn't teach much beyond correcting routine errors...
After eating, the two returned to the emergency department. Upon return, a patient had just arrived at the emergency room, and Dr. Yang quickly began the rescue while Xiao Li assisted and learned on the side...
At night, Qin Xiao was already waiting at the hospital entrance early, but because a patient came to the ER unexpectedly, Xiao Li, who was about to get off work, had to work overtime with Dr. Yang.
By the time she came out, Qin Xiao had already been waiting at the entrance for two hours.
When Xiao Li came out and saw Qin Xiao, she hurried over, and Qin Xiao caught her, hugged her, gently kissed her forehead, and then held her hand as they walked home together...
Xiao Li nestled against Qin Xiao's arm as they walked. "Didn't I send you a WeChat earlier saying I had to work overtime and you should go home first? Why are you still waiting here for so long..."
Before the unexpected overtime, Xiao Li had sent Qin Xiao a voice message, not sure how long she'd be, asking him to go home first.
As she finished work, Xiao Li didn't want Qin Xiao to run back and forth to pick her up. Since the hospital was close, she thought she would just go home directly, but as soon as she came out, there was Qin Xiao waiting...
Qin Xiao smiled, "There's nothing to do at home. I'd rather wait here; at least I'm near you...
Besides, it's not a long wait..."
Xiao Li laughed, holding up two fingers. "You've been waiting for two hours, isn't that long?
Besides, I never know when I'm getting off. It was just that this patient's condition was manageable, so I got out quickly.
If it was a more complicated case, who knows how long you'd have to wait!"
Qin Xiao chuckled, holding her two fingers too, pulling her to stand face-to-face with him. "It's only right for a man to wait for a woman. Two hours is nothing. I'd wait no matter how long it takes."
Xiao Li smiled sweetly. "I'm starving! Shall we go grab something to eat?"
Qin Xiao gently agreed, took her hand, and they found a nearby place to eat.
The next day, Xiao Li was up early again, and after a hasty breakfast, Qin Xiao accompanied her to the hospital for work.
At the hospital entrance, Xiao Li smiled at Qin Xiao, saying, "Well, I'm going to work now. You should head back too!"
With that, she tried to let go of his hand, heading towards the hospital...
But Qin Xiao didn't let go, continuing to hold her hand as they walked forward...
Seeing this, Xiao Li said helplessly, "Uncle, isn't escorting me to the hospital entrance enough? Are you planning to walk me directly to the department door?"
Qin Xiao nodded, "Yes, even that's not enough. I should send you right to the office."
Xiao Li looked exasperated...
"Uncle, I've only been an intern here for two days. Don't make me stand out so much, okay?"
Qin Xiao chuckled lowly, "Isn't my little princess supposed to stand out?"
Xiao Li shook her head, "No... I just want to keep a low profile."
Qin Xiao laughed even more, and as they laughed and joked, they reached the emergency department building. Qin Xiao let go of her hand, "All right, go in!"
Xiao Li smiled and said, "I'm going in now, you head back too!"
With that, Xiao Li ran off; she was almost late for work.
Qin Xiao watched until Xiao Li entered the emergency department, then turned away, heading not to the hospital entrance but to the building behind the emergency department.
Inside the emergency department, Xiao Li immediately changed into her work clothes and ran to report to Dr. Yang, thus starting another busy day of her internship...
After a few more days, Qin Xiao continued to send Xiao Li to the emergency department building every day, something Xiao Li had grown accustomed to.
Because he did it so often, it was inevitable that people would see, and everyone in the emergency department soon knew the beautiful new intern already had someone special.
Initially, Xiao Li was annoyed by people gossiping about her personal life; no one likes their privacy to be a public topic.
But as she heard it more, she became indifferent.
