Chapter 22 - Are You Uncomfortable?.


Chen Lihua inquired ignorant of Liu Longwei’s schemes.

Liu Longwei smiled answering, “No, I was only curious”. ​​

Chen Lihua replied with an “Ok” and continued looking at her phone.

Chen Lihua was trying to get information from of her colleague’s in the hospital to know if there was any major case in the hospital for the day.

Because Lady Chen helped her take a day off from the Hospital Director.

As a new doctor in a highly competitive and we’ll recognized hospital in country c (China) like SUH, where everybody were highly trained and competing for the one with the most talent.

Chen Lihua was not supposed to slack off for even a bit.

And the hospital does not grant a day off to their workers who has worked less than a 6 months for any personal purposes or grant a leave for those who has worked for less than 2 years, as they will be replaced immediately if not meeting the above requirements.

But who was lady Chen?, the people or citizens will say that she was among the top ten most influential women in China.

She single handedly ran the Chen group after her husband’s demise and Chen group was still flourishing.

So you could say Lady Chen raised the Chen group to where it was today with her influence.

This makes it clear that she could make people help her if she wanted something without putting in much effort.

Back to business.

When Asst Duyi heard the address to the Chen Villa, he quickly dropped his phone and input the address into the GPS system in the car and secretly thanked his Boss in his heart for saving him from an unknown death.

After imputing the address into the car’s GPS system, he swore to become more capable and prove himself worthy again to his Boss and to Chen Lihua.

Unknown to Liu Longwei and Chen Lihua, a pleasant surprise was already awaiting them in the Chen Villa.

Liu Longwei watched Chen Lihua keep her phone back in her bag and started fiddling with the French tips (nails) on her fingers.

With the way Chen Lihua was fiddling with the nails, it looked to Liu Longwei that she wanted to pull them out.

So he asked, “Are you uncomfortable?”.

Chen Lihua looked at Liu Longwei and followed his eyes to her nails before saying,

“Am not used to fixing nails, I fix them once in a blue moon. As a doctor, all these are unnecessary and useless because you can’t fix these nails and enter the theater. And as a medical student it is inappropriate”.

“But the nails look nice to me, since you are not used to fixing them, why all these trouble?”.

“Thanks, but I just felt like fixing them. I want to know that feeling again”.

Liu Longwei frowned a little and took her hand in his. He touched her fingers and the nails before saying, “Since you are uncomfortable, don’t fix them again”.

“Ok”, Chen Lihua answered and took her hands back from his hold.

Liu Longwei saw how uncomfortable Chen Lihua was, just for the mere holding of hands and shakes his head.

“Are you that uncomfortable because I held your hands?”

Chen Lihua gave a plain reply, “Somehow”.

“I thought you gave permission for hugs and pecks, and am sure holding of hands is nothing compared to them. So why are you uncomfortable now?”.

Chen Lihua sighed, “it feels weird. Am sorry, I will get used to it”.

“As far as you get used to it, then everything is OK. Otherwise, I will think you have a problem”.
