Chapter 358: Chapter 358: He’s Interested in You

"What’s not like?"

Cough cough cough.

The female colleague choked momentarily, hastily picked up her bowl of kelp soup and took a few sips before she finally caught her breath.

"Our department just got a new Doctor today, Brother Kuang, and I can swear, he’s got ideas about you!"

Using the word "swear" indicated a strong degree of certainty.

But Lu Jing was truly shocked and took a long time to come back to reality.

What the hell?

Brother Kuang likes me?

How is that possible?

It’s been five or six years since we’ve known each other, but in all these years, Brother Kuang never showed any signs, nor has he ever asked me out privately!

Just yesterday, it was I who took the initiative to invite him to dinner.

Though in the end, it was Brother Kuang who paid the bill.

What could that mean?

"No way, impossible, you’re overthinking it."

Three consecutive denials.

But the female colleague started to laugh in a cunning manner,

"Don’t underestimate my sharp vision, okay? My eyesight is 5.2! This morning, when the Director brought Doctor Kuang into the office, I saw the way he looked at you and reacted; I noticed everything."

As if!

This....

Lu Jing didn’t quite know what to say next, obviously feeling a bit out of her depth.

"It’s not true, really," she said, straining.

The female colleague did not pursue further:

"Okay, okay, if you say there’s nothing, then there’s nothing. But only Doctor Kuang knows what’s going on with him.

Doctor Lu, Captain Jiang is not the kind of person who takes things lightly!

It’s best not to let the two of them meet!"

Otherwise, they’re bound to fight.

Throughout history, aren’t there countless examples of two men vying for one woman?

Going back to ancient Greece, wasn’t the famous Trojan War caused by a prince stealing another country’s queen?

Cough cough.

Lu Jing’s mouth twitched violently a few times, and she silently bowed her head and started shoveling rice into her mouth, without even picking up any vegetables.

Who could remain calm in such a situation?

And more importantly, everyone would be working together in the same department in the future!

If something were to happen, how awkward would that be?

Lu Jing was already not good at dealing with these things, and now she was even more confused.

The female colleague, not wanting to say more and seeing that she had almost finished eating, added:

"Doctor Lu, eat slowly, I’m heading out."

"Mm-hmm."

After she left, Lu Jing also stopped eating; she had long lost her appetite.

Sigh, what should I do?

How should I handle this?

It’s so frustrating.

....

Because she was too caught up in her own thoughts, Lu Jing, after finishing her meal, did not rush back to the office, but instead wandered aimlessly in the hospital’s back garden.

She walked with her head down, fortunately, there weren’t many people in the garden at this time.

Walking along, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her.

Lu Jing stepped aside, but the figure also moved to follow.

She quickly looked up:

"Do you need something?"

A very unfamiliar man, with a very ordinary appearance, the kind that would be impossible to pick out in a crowd.

The man smiled:

"I was wondering how to get to the inpatient department?"

He was asking for directions?

No wonder he was blocking her.

"Just go that way, through the alley, and you’ll see it." While saying this, she also stepped aside and pointed in the direction.

"Oh, over there? Okay, thank you."

"Don’t mentio.... mmm.... mmm..."

She hadn’t even managed to finish saying "mention" when her mouth and nose were suddenly covered.

A strong smell of ethanol quickly filled her nostrils and throat.

The concentration of ethanol was very high, Lu Jing struggled only briefly before passing out.

At that moment, a light-colored van conveniently pulled up beside them, and another person got out.

Then the two people quickly lifted the unconscious Lu Jing into the vehicle, closed the door, and sped away.
