On Monday, Xie Wanying arrived early at the inpatient department to report for her first day in the Hepatobiliary Surgery Department, ready to climb up to the ninth floor. Climbing stairs in the sweltering summer heat was not easy, and it made her sweat. As she climbed, she recognized the silhouette of a person carrying a briefcase ahead of her.
Hearing footsteps from behind, Cao Yong turned around on the steps and saw her, his eyes crinkling into a dashing smile like waves flickering in the air.
"Senior Cao, you're here so early?" Xie Wanying thought that at this time, the seniors should not have arrived at the hospital yet.
Waiting for her to catch up, Cao Yong looked at the bag in her hand: "What's that?"
"It's for Zhao Zhaowei. I heard from Li Qi'an that he's been feeling suffocated from staying in the hospital, so I brought him a few books to read," Xie Wanying said.
