Chapter 2454 – Touching Her Head
Zhou Li’s handsome face tensed and he looked at An Rui with a trace of panic in his eyes. “You knew?”
An Rui nodded. “It’s Tiantian, right?”
Zhou Li wanted to say something when he heard An Rui sigh and say, “Although you’re very outstanding, Tiantian has Gu Yang. Gu Yang is the one and only in Tiantian’s heart. You should end this crush as soon as possible!”
Zhou Li shook his head helplessly. “It’s not Ye Tian.”
An Rui furrowed her eyebrows, looking curious. “Who is that? Is she your university classmate?”
Zhou Li hummed carelessly.
An Rui wanted to ask him why he didn’t confess, but seeing that he didn’t want to say more, she stopped herself.
On the way to his office, many nurses and doctors greeted him when they saw him.
He was quite popular!
But when he was in school, he did not give people a sense of distance and was quite approachable!
Zhou Li’s office was on the second floor. The office provided by the Royal Hospital was rather luxurious. Not only was there an office area for patients, but there was also a resting area.
Zhou Li helped An Rui to the chair and squatted in front of her. “Lift your right leg slightly and let me see where you’re injured.”
At this moment, he was a doctor and she was a patient.
An Rui raised her right foot and Zhou Li’s slender fingers pinched her right ankle. His fingertips were slightly warm and she frowned and gasped when he pinched her lightly.
“You didn’t injure your bones. I’ll get the nurse to rub it for you after work in the afternoon.”
An Rui looked at Zhou Li’s honest and clean eyes and serious face and she raised her eyebrows slightly. “Can’t Dr Zhou help me?”
Zhou Li seemed to be stunned for a moment. He met An Rui’s bright almond-shaped eyes and pursed his lips slightly. “Okay.”
There was medicinal wine in his drawer and he poured some on his palm, covering the red and swollen part of her ankle and massaged it for her.
His technique was very good and An Rui soon felt that the red and swollen area was hot and itchy, relieving the pain from her ankle.
An Rui looked down at the man squatting in front of her.
He took off his glasses, his thick black eyelashes lowered and her could not see his eyes clearly. Under his tall nose, his lips were slightly pursed.
He was serious when he did things and it made people feel at ease.
In the past, An Rui’s attention had been on naughty and active boys like Shen Mingxiu. She rarely paid attention to quiet and meticulous boys like Zhou Li.
But with age and experience, her mentality had changed.
She really admired this kind of quiet and reserved boy with a scholarly air.
As he massaged her, An Rui felt a strange feeling in her heart.
This feeling seemed very far away, so far away that she thought she would never have it again.
Seeming to have noticed that An Rui was looking at him, Zhou Li looked up. His eyelids belonged to his inner eyelids, the ends of his eyes slightly upturned, his eyelashes long and dark, and his eyes were warm like the spring breeze in March.
“Are you feeling better?”
The moment An Rui met his eyes, she felt a little awkward and nodded with a stiff smile. “Much better. Dr Zhou’s skills are really good.”
Zhou Li smiled faintly.
He got up, washed his hands and looked at the clock on the wall. “I’ll take you back first.”
An Rui limped to the sofa in the resting area. “Did I disturb Dr Zhou?”
“No, you need to rest.”
“Then I’ll rest here for a while. I’ll treat you to dinner after work tonight.”
Before Zhou Li could say anything, An Rui added, “You know that I don’t like to owe people favors. You helped me again today.”
Zhou Li looked at the girl who looked down at her phone and said nothing more. He got up and went out of the lounge.
An Rui looked at his back from the corner of her eye and let out a long sigh.
She was afraid that he would force her out of the office!
Although she did not know why she wanted to stay.
About ten minutes later, Zhou Li came over with two bags.
He bought her a set meal with her favorite beef and braised fish, and a glass of juice.
“You probably didn’t eat much in the afternoon. Eat something simple first.”
An Rui looked at the man who had placed the food and even opened the chopsticks for her, and she was a little stunned.
“Dr Zhou, are you so good to every girl?”
Zhou Li handed his chopsticks to An Rui, pursed his lips slightly, and replied, “No.”
“Oh, oh. You’re giving me preferential treatment because we’re high school classmates, right?”
He hummed softly in agreement.
It was time for him to go to work. A nurse knocked on the door and came in. “Dr Zhou, can I call the number now?”
Zhou Li nodded. He closed the door of the lounge and office and walked out.
After dinner, An Rui drank a few mouthfuls of juice and looked out of the window.
The patients came in one by one. Zhou Li sat in front of the desk, asking patiently and treating them. A child’s hand was broken and he cried terribly. His parents could not coax him and he squatted in front of the child and did a small magic trick, giving a car to the child.
The child stopped crying immediately.
Seeing this, An Rui smiled unconsciously.
She suddenly understood why she wanted to stay here. It was because Zhou Li would let her relax and spend time with him. She did not need to disguise herself or do her best to please him. She just needed to be her true self!
An Rui leaned against the window and watched him work for nearly two hours. The patients came one after another and he did not even go to the washroom.
It was not easy in every industry and it was hard being a doctor.
….
When Zhou Li was almost done, he came to the lounge.
An Rui had already fallen asleep on the sofa.
She was curled up, looking thin and extremely insecure.
Zhou Li took a thin blanket from the cabinet and covered her softly.
He did not leave immediately and stared at her fair and exquisite face for a while.
It was only after he came back that he found out that the An family had gone bankrupt two years ago. Her life had changed completely. She was usually smiling, but only now did she realize her true feelings!
Uneasy, afraid and insecure!
Zhou Li leaned down slightly, his slender fingers gently touching the top of her head.
But after a second or two, he retracted his hand and turned to go out.
The moment the door was closed, An Rui opened her eyes.
In the past, she could not wake up even when she was asleep, but in the past two years, she could wake up with the slightest movement.
When he came in to cover her with a blanket, she was already awake.
She reached out and touched the top of her head that he had just touched, feeling a little dazed.
Although she did not see his expression just now, he seemed to be very gentle when he touched the top of her head!
Was he pitying her?
