[8] I've learned her name

```

Cao Yong was remembered as a well-known star student at their medical school, and Zhu Huicang finally felt relieved, "I have confidence in you, go ahead and do it."

Ready to scrub in and disinfect for the operating room, the intern was holding the phone for him.

Zhu Huicang reminisced and reviewed the surgical procedures with him, while praising his old classmate, "You ruled out a heart attack right away. With that skill, wouldn't it have been better if you'd joined our cardiothoracic surgery department from the start?"

"Ah!" Regarding this matter, Cao Yong decided to be honest with his old classmate, "I'll explain everything to you when I get back."

The operating room was brightly lit all night.

The next morning, the entire hospital knew that the star student from the Capital had saved an emergent and critical rare case.

When Ding Yuhai returned to surgery with his briefcase in hand, you can imagine how sullen he felt: rumor had it that this Cao Yong was only in his twenties and would certainly achieve even greater things in the future, since the golden age for surgeons is between thirty and forty-something.

Different from her husband's sullen mood, Zhou Ruomei was thrilled and was on her way to see the Handsome Cao from the Capital at the emergency department.

Getting on good terms with someone from the Capital could benefit her son, who would be a doctor in the future, and she heard that he was single; perhaps this could secure a match for her daughter.

"Head Nurse Min." Zhou Ruomei took the hand of the head nurse in the emergency room and made a friendly gesture.

The head nurse saw through Zhou Ruomei's intentions at a glance and confided to her in private, "He's a handsome guy, if I didn't have a daughter, I'd definitely bring her here to meet him."

Zhou Ruomei stood on tiptoe and her eyes lit up at the sight of Cao Yong, who carried an air of coolness as he approached: he was clearly much more handsome than the head nurse had described.

"Dr. Cao, this is Doctor Zhou from our obstetrics and gynecology department. She has a daughter who attends Zhongshan Finance and Economics, just a few years younger than you," the head nurse hinted to Cao Yong, making the introduction as Zhou Ruomei had suggested.

Cao Yong yawned secretly, having performed surgery all night, he would have gone to sleep long ago if he didn't have to handover his shift; he wasn't in the mood to listen to their nonsense.

Seeing that Cao Yong did not respond or pay attention to them, Zhou Ruomei and the head nurse exchanged a look: People from the Capital really carry that kind of assured arrogance.

"Doctor Zhou." The security guard from last night's shift came in to ask Zhou Ruomei, "Did a relative come looking for you last night? They took the wrong turn and ended up here in the emergency department. Did they find your home afterward?"

Hearing this, Zhou Ruomei felt embarrassed by her cousin, Sun Rongfang, so she didn't reply.

"No?" The dutiful security guard persisted in asking, "Her daughter said she's going to sit for the college entrance exam soon, in her senior year of high school, so her mother brought her to find you. Her mother calls her Yingying; they stood in the small courtyard outside our emergency room door last night."

Was it the fairy-like girl from last night? Cao Yong, who had been reviewing a patient file with his head down, suddenly pricked up his ears, looked up, and pointed with his pen towards the security guard, "Are you talking about the female student from last night called Yingying?"

"Did you see her, Dr. Cao?" The security guard was thrilled, finally having confirmation that he hadn't lied, and he nodded vigorously at Cao Yong, "Yes, her mother calls her Yingying. Why don't you ask Doctor Zhou?"

As Cao Yong's gaze turned towards her, Zhou Ruomei's heart tightened and she waved her hands dismissively, "I don't have such relatives; don't listen to his nonsense."

Zhou Ruomei thought to herself as she denied knowing them outright that Handsome Cao was an important person from the Capital that her daughter and son needed to ingratiate themselves with; she could not possibly help her cousin make a connection.

After speaking, Zhou Ruomei turned and walked away to avoid Cao Yong's inquiring gaze, feeling that she must not let Cao Yong get in touch with her cousin's family no matter what.

Cao Yong had no choice but to look down again, but his pen unwittingly scribbled the name of the fairy-like girl onto the paper: Yingying. After writing it, he was stunned himself.
