Tae Hyuk managed to catch the orthopedic resident just in time.
“Let’s have a little chat.”
The orthopedic resident turned pale when Professor Choi Tae Hyuk, who had suddenly sprung up from behind, spoke to him as though he was a venomous snake wrapping around his neck.
“Pr, Professor. I haven’t done anything.”
He would soon. And it would be something quite unpleasant to him.
And so, Tae Hyuk dragged the orthopedic resident out of the surgical ward.
“Min Ho Jun?”
When Tae Hyuk said his name while looking at the staff card hanging around his neck, Min Ho Jun tensed up his shoulders.
“I’m telling you, I’m not on good terms with your professor.”
Min Ho Jun, unable to understand what that had to do with him, simply stared at Tae Hyuk with wide eyes.
“So I hope there’s absolutely no personal involvement between orthopedics and general surgery. You understand what I mean?”
As Professor Choi Tae Hyuk spoke solemnly and drew closer, Min Ho Jun felt increasingly pressured and began to find it hard to breathe.
“But I……”
Why on the day that he decided to confess to Na Young, did the relationship between the two professors turn sour? It was something Min Ho Jun could not quite comprehend.
Just as Min Ho Jun was about to respond, the look in Professor Choi Tae Hyuk’s eyes suddenly flared up like a venomous snake.
“So, not responding means you find my words amusing?”
“Absolutely not! I will keep it in mind.”
Min Ho Jun shouted in a voice that was full of determination.
Having successfully defended Madonna, Tae Hyuk turned around and froze for a moment when he spotted Yoon Yi Na.
He passed by Yoon Yi Na without saying anything.
Yoon Yi Na, who had been watching Tae Hyuk’s retreating figure, asked the resident who had been scolded by him.
“What happened?”
Min Ho Jun, with a voice full of injustice, reported to Yoon Yi Na about what had happened to him in great detail.
A new twentyyearold liver cancer patient was admitted, and she officially became a fan of Professor Choi Tae Hyuk.
She said it herself. She was infatuated.
Every time she met him, since she was his patient, she had to keep hearing her praise for Professor Choi Tae Hyuk’s looks.
“He really looks like the male lead in a romance drama.”
It was something she said because she didn’t know that his character perfectly matched an extremely demanding job.
Professor Choi Tae Hyuk, who was known among the residents for his sharp tongue, was still selective with his words when dealing with patients.
But he wasn’t exactly speaking sweet words.
“Yes, Professor Choi was indeed handsome.”
Na Young casually agreed and examined the patient’s condition.
She was slightly feverish, but her temperature wasn’t dropping, which made her a patient of concern.
“I wish my first kiss would be with a man like Professor Choi.”
Startled.
Without realizing it, Na Young’s expression hardened.
PK, who had once frowned in front of a patient with Fetol Hepaticus and was scolded by her, looked at her.
It was the first kiss, wasn’t it?
How could anyone not be surprised?
Na Young hurriedly left the hospital room and stopped in her tracks as she spotted something outside the window.
Two people were arguing, one of them was definitely the daughter of Hwang Myung Soon, who was about to receive a liver transplant, and the other was known to be the husband of the public woman.
Seeing them raising their voices, Na Young felt that something was definitely off and quickly pulled out her phone to call Professor Choi Tae Hyuk.
[The customer is on a call, please call again later……] Just her luck, he was on a call.Na Young hurriedly ran to find Professor Choi Tae Hyuk herself.
Upon hearing that the professor was heading to his research lab, Na Young, with a sense of urgency, swung open the door.
“Professor! Aaaah!”
Tae Hyuk, who was changing his clothes, became rigid due to her sudden entrance and scream.
“Don’t you know how to knock?”
“I’m sorry!”
Na Young quickly turned around while apologizing.
Her heart was pounding heavily in her chest.
Looking at her, who couldn’t even look his way, Tae Hyuk laughed to himself.
He wondered why she was so bothered, considering it wasn’t their first encounter.
“So, what’s the matter?”
Tae Hyuk asked while buttoning up his shirt. Na Young, still with her back towards him, explained.
“Oh! I saw Hwang Myung Soon’s daughter and son arguing outside the hospital.”
“And so?”
At his indifferent response, Na Young’s voice heightened, seemingly hurt.
“The professor should intervene in the dispute about the transplant surgery…”
“My job is the transplant surgery.”
“But!”
“A doctor is not a god. We can’t control or solve everything. Nor do we need to.”
Thud. Thud.
While he spoke, Professor Choi Tae Hyuk drew closer to her.
Stop.
She could feel him standing right behind her.
“And when you speak to someone, look them in the eyes. Don’t stare at the wall.”
Taken aback by his remark, Na Young’s shoulders twitched.
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
