Chapter 119: Set-up Date
"Head Nurse, what's wrong?" Huo Mian ran up to follow behind the head nurse, as she thought that something had happened to one of the patients .
"Hurry up and change, there isn't much time left . "
The head nurse pushed a confused Huo Mian into the changing room, causing Huo Mian to be completely confused and overwhelmed .
"Head Nurse, I'm halfway through my shift! What am I supposed to change into?"
"Didn't I say that I would introduce my cousin to you? He's here today in the café right below our hospital . Hurry up and change to meet him . Get to know him, my cousin is quite exceptional . " Clearly, the head nurse hadn't gotten out of the habit of being serious .
However, Huo Mian still felt somewhat uncomfortable when the head nurse talked to her about things outside of work .
After Huo Mian changed, she finally came to her senses . Was the head nurse trying to set her up with a potential boyfriend?
That's why the head nurse wanted her to change? So she could go on a date?
However, was it really okay for a married woman like her to go on dates?
At this thought, Huo Mian wanted to confess everything and tell her the truth, since lying wasn't a very good trait .
Therefore, she opened her mouth, and said, "Head Nurse, the thing is that… I think you might have misunderstood, the truth is that I'm . . . "
Before she said the word 'married', the head nurse cut her off and said, "Go to the cafe downstairs, he's sitting by the window . He'll be the young man in white, go on, that's it . "
"Head Nurse, the patient in room five's water broke! Come quickly, she needs surgery!" one of the nurses shouted in a hurry .
"Okay, I'll be right over!" Then, the head nurse patted Huo Mian's shoulder, and encouraged, "Go, you can do it . "
"Huh? Head Nurse, I haven't finished yet," Huo Mian's face was filled with indecision .
However, the head nurse was already long gone…
If she didn't go, then it might be impolite for the other person to sit around and wait .
Huo Mian decided to suck it up and meet the head nurse's "exceptional" cousin; she would clearly explain her situation to him face to face .
After she took off her white lab coat, Huo Mian put on a mickey-mouse printed yellow t-shirt with light blue jeans .
She didn't even have time to tie up her hair, just letting it fall freely and carelessly .
It was only early summer, so it wasn't that hot yet, and the occasional cold breeze would blow by .
After Huo Mian took a deep breath, she stepped into the café where they were to meet .
She immediately saw the young man seated near the window . He was wearing a white shirt and sat very quietly in his chair .
Huo Mian didn't even know what his name was . She only came because the head nurse had arranged this, and she couldn't let her down .
"Hi, the head nurse told me to meet you here," Huo Mian built up her courage, walked over, and greeted him .
The man turned around; after he looked at Huo Mian, he gave a small nod, "Hi, please sit down . "
Huo Mian sat down across from him .
"What would you like to drink?"
"Just water is fine . " Huo Mian awkwardly smiled .
"Waitress, she would like a glass of lemon water . " He ordered .
The man looked at Huo Mian again and closely inspected her facial features and choice of clothes .
He then slowly said, "My cousin told you what I do for a living, right?"
"Yes, she did . You work in forensics . "
"Yes, I am a forensics specialist hired by the police bureau . I studied in the United States and majored in Forensics at the University of Maryland . I'm now the youngest forensics Ph . D . in our province . "
"Would you mind telling me your name?" Huo Mian clearly had no interest in this person's profession whatsoever; she only wanted to find out his name so that she could tell him the truth, and not lead him into any misunderstandings .
He was surprised that after the young woman across from him heard about his prestigious background, she didn't show any hint of emotions; instead, she calmly asked him for his name .
