Chapter 148: Gossip in the Hospital

Jiang An has been busy with the recent assessment for the past few days, only slightly relieved after submitting her thesis and stepping out of the department head’s office. Right then, she bumped into another intern, Song Ya, who also came to submit her thesis. They agreed to go eat together.

On the way, Song Ya shared her plan to work in a private hospital after her internship, following her parents’ wishes. Jiang An remembered that Song Ya had mentioned this briefly at their last gathering. As an outsider, she didn’t feel it was her place to comment.

"The atmosphere here is quite good, though," Song Ya mused with a sense of remembrance after finding a spot to sit down following their meal pickup. She had been here for two months and had indeed grown attached.

"Don’t be fooled by Dr. Liu’s stern exterior towards us. I can actually tell he’s warm inside." It seemed like the decision to leave initiated a stronger attachment, and Song Ya and Jiang An commended their mentor, while the girl listened attentively.

"Do you know the latest gossip discussed in our department?" Song Ya asked as she noticed Jiang An silently eating with no conversation. She wanted to bring up something that might interest the girl.

Although they had only been acquainting for two months and weren’t very close, Jiang An gave off a comfortable vibe, not as scheming as other interns in the same office. She often came to chat with Jiang An.

As Song Ya expected, Jiang An looked confused and raised her head, not understanding what was being discussed.

Looking around and confirming there were no other department members nearby, Song Ya leaned closer and whispered, "You might not know this, but Dr. Song and Dr. Gao are together."

The gossip expression was evident on her face, and although her voice was low, it clearly reached Jiang An’s ears. Hearing Dr. Gao and Dr. Song mentioned together, Jiang An showed a shocked look, nearly dropping her chopsticks.

Seeing Jiang An’s surprised expression, Song Ya pursed her lips, "I overheard two nurses during my night shift yesterday. They said the two were boyfriend and girlfriend in university, and Dr. Song came to City Hospital just for Dr. Gao."

Song Ya’s face was all curious, though the news hadn’t spread in the department yet. But considering Song Xin’s assertive demeanor, it was not hard to guess.

Jiang An was struck, a hint of daydream flashing in her eyes as she adjusted her chopsticks and forced a smile, avoiding eye contact with Song Ya, "That can’t be right, they must be spreading rumors."

There were always some gossipers in the department leading to hearsay, likely because the two were seen together often, Jiang An thought.

But Song Ya appeared very certain, quickly dismissing Jiang An’s doubts, "No, it’s true, Dr. Song herself confirmed it."

"But you know, probably only Dr. Song would be a good match for Dr. Gao. Both are so talented and good-looking, I’m really envious," Song Ya murmured dreamily.

Though not in the department for long, Song Ya had heard some rumors about Dr. Gao and noted his reserved nature. Now, hearing this particular gossip about Dr. Gao truly was surprising.

Seeing Jiang An still half-doubtful, Song Ya raised an eyebrow, reflecting to herself, "But Dr. Gao really does fit my taste in looks, just too indifferent though."

"Maybe he’s just indifferent to us, not towards Dr. Song, haha."

The words drifted past her ears, but Jiang An had already tuned them out, her mind replaying over and over the conversation with Song Ya, a shadow of worry crossing her face.

Dr. Gao and Dr. Song? Are they together?

They were just ordinary university classmates, and Dr. Gao was supposed to be with her, not romantically involved with Dr. Song.

Though initially dismissive, her mind uncontrollably conjured the image of Song Xin and Gao Chuan sharing a meal together recently.

Their familiar interaction, so natural...

The more she thought, the more Jiang An interrupted her train of thoughts, forcing herself to stop thinking about it.

It could just be gossip from a nosy nurse.

After all, last night the man had slept right by her side.

Song Ya watched the girl daydreaming and raised a hand in front of her to shake her out of it, reminding, "What are you thinking about!"

Jiang An was then brought back to reality, shook her head, and continued to eat her set meal, saying, "Nothing much."

Afterwards, they continued to chat for a while, Jiang An had no intention of dwelling on the matter again, but she had already become absent-minded and started daydreaming.

After a long time, they finally finished eating and parted at the cafeteria entrance. Jiang An intended to take a stroll near the hospital during her lunch break when her cell phone suddenly vibrated in her pocket. Upon checking the message, she realized Dr. Gao had just sent it.

Gao Chuan: Wednesday.

It was only seeing those brief two words that Jiang An suddenly remembered the agreement they had made; she had almost forgotten if it wasn’t for Dr. Gao’s WeChat message.

Wednesday, they had agreed to meet in his office.

The girl turned around and went back upstairs, her mood finally alleviated after seeing the man’s message, which had been somewhat irritated by Song Ya’s words.

The elevator ascended, and Jiang An made her way to Gao Chuan’s office, finding no one around for the moment. To be safe, she still knocked on the door first.

A few seconds later, a figure came over to personally open the door for her, and Jiang An was pulled in by the man before he closed the door behind them.

The actions were silently subtle, suggestive of a secret meeting.

"Only twenty minutes left," said Jiang An as the first thing upon entering, looking at her watch, as the lunch with Xia Zi took longer today and delayed her considerably.

The precious fleeting moments of their date were harshly squeezed.

Gao Chuan immediately took the girl and sat her down on a chair, his eyebrows almost imperceptibly furrowed as he heard her softly remind him of their limited time.

"How about coming here for lunch on Wednesdays from now on?" the man tenderly suggested, straightening the loose strands of hair beside the girl’s cheeks.

Jiang An couldn’t help but burst out laughing at what the man said, her previously somber mood instantly evaporated, as she reached out to hook her arms around the man’s neck.

She had never realized before how fully Dr. Gao epitomized the phrase "give him an inch and he’ll take a mile."

"No," she shook her head in refusal, suddenly feeling that all those rumors had instantly dissipated.

Gao Chuan listened to Jiang An’s unreserved rejection and kept quiet, clearly understanding what Jiang An was concerned about.

Before he could argue, Jiang An leaned in close and gently nibbled on his earlobe, her provocative voice so near.

"I’ll make it up to Dr. Gao tonight."

The man sitting in the chair holding the girl felt his ears immediately turn red and a fire ignited in his heart.

Seductress.

A deadly seductress.

She won’t escape tonight.
