"Mom, don’t ask. They’re busy," Zhang Huayao walked over, speaking in a way that matched someone else’s look exactly.
"You’re not asking her what she’s busy with?" Teacher Lu was surprised her son was reacting the same way.
"No need to ask what she’s busy with; you can guess what she’s up to," Zhang Huayao said.
What could Student Xie be busy with? This single-minded person, whose brain only has medicine, must be busy with medical matters, summoned by a patient.
Zhang Shuping’s eyes revealed a hint of envy: Student Xie is just an intern and already often being sought out by patients.
Excellent doctors start being sought by patients since their student days. This phenomenon is common in clinical practice, and the Boss teachers are used to it.
"Go, get busy with your own work. We’ll save dinner for you here," Zhang Huayao pointed at someone, directing.
Boss Zhang’s words sounded like a command, and Xie Wanying quickly stood up.
For those aspiring to be doctors, having patients seek them out is a good thing, a sense of accomplishment. The greatest fear for a doctor is no patients coming to them. Hurry, get busy.
Teacher Lu understood what’s going on and told her, "If there’s anything you want to eat tonight, let us know in advance and we’ll prepare it and wait for you to come back for dinner."
"Teacher Lu, you don’t need to save dinner for me," Xie Wanying replied. She’s always been indifferent about what to eat and fears the food will be wasted if she doesn’t make it back.
"If I say I’ll save some, I’ll save some for you," Teacher Lu, much like Boss Zhang, had a commanding presence, refusing her a second word while rambling on, "Shall I make you stir-fried tomato and eggs, or something else? I’ll call Cao Yong. He knows best what you like to eat."
Due to Hu Hao urging, Xie Wanying bid farewell to the teachers and senior sisters before heading out the door. Zhang Tian’an and Zhang Tianxing, under their father’s orders, accompanied her downstairs to point out which intersection to catch a cab from conveniently.
Once she left, Teacher Lu boldly called Cao Yong asking, "Didn’t you take her home for dinner during the Spring Festival?"
Cao Yong: ... Why is everyone eager to play matchmaker for him?
"What does she like to eat?" Teacher Lu asked again.
He knew what she liked to eat, but the problem was, why was she asking this?
"We plan to save her some dinner. Her classmate has a situation, maybe someone’s sick and asked her to take a look."
Classmate? If it’s a university classmate, they’re all medical students, no need to call her specifically. From what he knew, it was only that high school classmate who liked to drag her into trouble.
"I got it."
"Hey?" Teacher Lu was surprised when the person on the other end suddenly hung up, "Why did he hang up on me? Saying he knows but doesn’t tell me anything."
"Mom, don’t worry about these young people. They should handle their own stuff," Zhang Huayao thought playing matchmaker was pointless, unlike his mother.
"I just feel he’s acting a bit strange in this matter," Teacher Lu remarked.
"What’s there to fear? With Cao Yong around, who dares to bully her?" Zhang Huayao said straightforwardly.
Boss Zhang’s words were sharp and to the point. Everyone thought it made sense. Teacher Lu laughed heartily.
After leaving, with Boss Zhang’s two sons leading the way, Xie Wanying quickly walked to the intersection.
Zhang Tian’an helped her hail a taxi.
Zhang Tianxing, more talkative, asked her, "Are you a student my dad thinks highly of?"
The medical students who come to his house for New Year’s visits are mostly the ones his dad favors.
Xie Wanying explained, "I haven’t studied under Teacher Zhang yet."
"That’s strange. My dad seems quite fond of you," Zhang Tianxing, as a son, could perceive who his father favored.
Zhang Tian’an turned back to remind his brother not to speak recklessly, lest their father gets angry later, saying, "The cab’s here."
