Chapter Six: Xuan Er

  Director Zhang's face lit up with a smile as soon as he saw the beautiful woman, and his voice was exceptionally gentle as he asked: "Xuan'er, is Director Qin Shou in?"

  "Director Zhang, hello. Where is Director Qin? Are you looking for him?" This Xuan'er, although her mouth was speaking to Director Zhang, her beautiful big eyes were sizing up Xiao Han standing beside Director Zhang.

  Xiao Han nodded at her and smiled slightly.

  A great beauty, who would refuse to get close to? Moreover, she is an internal medicine doctor of traditional Chinese medicine, and didn't you say that you wanted to have a good relationship with your colleagues? So why not start with this beautiful woman?

  Director Zhang said, "Oh, right, let me introduce you to Xuan'er. This is your new colleague in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department, his name is Xiao Han, and he's a top student from Medical University. And this is Lin Xuan'er, our hospital's beautiful flower, please take care of each other in the future."

  Xiao Han hastily stretched out his hand: "Hello, from now on we are colleagues, please give me more guidance."

  Lin Xuan'er timidly stretched out a small, white and tender hand, softly shaking hands with Xiao Han, and smiled: "Where did Zhang Kezhang say that you are a top student? Xuan'er will ask for your guidance and help in the future."

  "Let's learn from each other," said Xiao Han.

  "I still have something to attend to, you all go ahead. Director Qin is in the office." Lin Xuan'er took another glance at Xiao Han before turning around and walking away with a gentle swaying motion.

  "How about it? Our city hospital is a place where beautiful women come out, and this girl, I heard she doesn't even have a boyfriend yet." Director Zhang said with a lingering gaze at Lin Xiang'er's back.

  Director Zhang is a middle-aged uncle who is both short and fat. He naturally has no chance, and this remark was directed at Xiao Han.

  Xiao Han nodded: "Yes, indeed a great beauty." Yes, saying that you want to get along with your colleagues, then, this department head is a lecher, and of course, you also have to be a lecher, otherwise, how can you "flow together and merge"? Besides, Xiao Han really thought that Lin Xiang'er was indeed a top-notch beauty.

  Arriving at the office of Director Qin Shou, head of the Chinese Medicine Department, they naturally exchanged some pleasantries again. After everything was arranged, Director Zhang returned to the Personnel Department upstairs. Xiao Han thought, without Director Tang's patronage and Wang Yue Lin's instructions, would Director Zhang be so enthusiastic towards him? Of course not! Xiao Han still clearly remembered that about two weeks ago when he came to submit his resume at the Personnel Department, Director Zhang had a cold expression on his face. This was the warmth and coldness of human relationships, the ups and downs of life. Actually, these were not unfamiliar to Xiao Han, who had experienced them while working part-time in school.

  Xiao Han is currently an intern in the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine at Municipal Hospital, and after completing his internship, he will be transferred to a regular position. Xiao Han's internship supervisor is none other than Director Qin Shou himself, which shows how much Director Qin values him.

  Before he knew it, it was already late afternoon and time to get off work. Xiao Han arrived at the entrance of the shopping mall in front of the hospital as agreed, waiting for Wang Yu Lin.

  On an autumn evening, the sky has already darkened early, just past five o'clock in the afternoon, it's almost nightfall, with neon lights flashing, and the city's nightlife is still bustling with cars and people.

  Xiao Han stood under a tall pillar at the entrance of the mall, because this was the most conspicuous place and easiest for Wang Yu Lin to spot him.

  Before long, Xiao Han was still staring foolishly at the road when he felt someone lightly pat his back. He turned around to see Wang Yu Lin smiling at him and saying, "What's wrong, are you in a hurry?"

  "No rush, I'm waiting for someone, and even if it's Moon Lin sister, she can't be in a hurry." Xiao Han made a small joke.

  Since the morning in Wang Yu Lin's office, Xiao Han had a basic understanding of this Jiangnan beauty's personality. He knew that making appropriate jokes with her would actually increase the closeness between them.

  "Come on, I saw a dress in the mall and tried it on. It fit pretty well, so I bought it, which is why I'm late." Wang Yuelin said, leading Xiao Han towards a rose-red sedan parked at the entrance of the mall.

  Xiao Han only then noticed that Wang Yu Lin's hand was holding a delicate paper bag, presumably the clothes she had mentioned were inside.

  When it was time to get on the bus, Xiao Han intentionally asked: "Sister, should I sit in the front or the back?"

  Wang Yuelin smiled: "Suit yourself."

  Xiao Han opened the front passenger door: "Then I'll sit in the front, it's more convenient to protect sister this way."

  Wang Yu Lin couldn't help but giggle: "You."

  The car drove forward smoothly, Wang Yuelin asked Xiao Han: "Can you drive?"

  Xiao Han sighed: "I didn't expect it, I wanted to learn in college, but somehow I didn't have time, and before I knew it, graduation was upon me."

  "It's about time to get a driver's license, it will be more convenient, take advantage of the fact that you've just started working and aren't too busy yet."

  "Okay, I'll go sign up this Sunday."

  Wang Yu Lin fell silent for a moment before speaking again: "Do you know anyone at the driving school?"

  "I don't know." Xiao Han replied honestly.

  "It's hard to say how long you'll have to wait before being allowed to take the exam, it might be a year or even longer."

  "What? Such a long time? What can we do, sister?"

  Wang Yuelin burst out laughing: "You should call me your master."

  "Will you be my teacher?"

  "Yes, you follow me first and learn from me, after you've learned it, I'll find someone to take you to the exam, that way it's faster."

  "Alright then, I'll become your disciple now. Hello, Teacher Wang."

  Wang Yu Lin chuckled: "Don't call me that, I feel like I'm almost becoming an old lady wearing reading glasses."

  "Then I'll just call you sister."

  Two people chatted and laughed all the way, their relationship becoming even more intimate.

  Xiao Han still found it a bit strange in his heart, why Wang Yu Lin and himself were so close and casual just at their first meeting? According to reason, as the head of the municipal hospital, she shouldn't be someone without any airs about her, right?

  Xiao Han had no idea that from Wang Yue Lin's perspective, she was able to become the president of the municipal hospital at such a young age, on one hand it was her own efforts, and on the other hand, it was also inseparable from Tang Director's cultivation and support. Although outsiders all rumored that she and Tang Ai Min had an affair, in fact, between them, there really was nothing, completely just a mentor-apprentice relationship.

  Now, Tang Ai Min introduced Xiao Han over, so naturally she would look at Xiao Han with different eyes. In addition, Wang Yue Lin had a boyfriend during her university days, she loved him very much, but that guy graduated and went abroad, without any news, leaving Wang Yue Lin deeply hurt. Until now, 33-year-old Wang Yue Lin was still single, also because of this reason.

  When Xiao Han walked into her office this morning, it suddenly gave her a momentary illusion, thinking that the man she deeply loved had appeared, because Xiao Han and that guy looked really too alike.
