Chapter 254: Chapter 193: Mediocre Tricks_2

She silently added to herself, hoping it wouldn’t be too expensive.

She walked into the office with the thermos in hand, just to hear Su Yiqian’s voice outside, "Jianlin, I’ve booked a Western restaurant for tonight. It’s hard to get a reservation there. Are you free tonight?"

Then came Gao Jianlin’s indifferent voice, "Sorry, I already have plans." With that, he strode away.

Su Yiqian bit her lip, watching Gao Jianlin’s tall figure leave, feelings of unwillingness overwhelming her. She returned to the office, looked around—the desks were all empty except for Tang Xi being there.

She walked over to Tang Xi in her high heels, "Hey, don’t you know your place? Look at yourself, what status do you have, daring to seduce Jianlin, and you’re even a second-hand woman who’s divorced with a child!"

"I’ve known Jianlin for over ten years!! Our relationship isn’t something you can just replace on a whim!"

Tang Xi was reviewing medical records, as both patient bed four and five were under her care. She was cross-checking the information on the computer with patients’ treatment records, medication, and recovery status.

She did not take Su Yiqian’s ranting seriously at all.

She had encountered shameless people like Su Mengshu before, let alone a trivial Su Yiqian.

It seems she must have a clash with the Su Family, encountering their unreasonable behavior everywhere.

Tang Xi took out her glasses from the drawer and put them on to carefully check.

On the side, Su Yiqian had been blustering for a while, but Tang Xi hadn’t shown any reaction. Her beautiful face remained expressionless, as if shielding herself from flailing punches and kicks into cotton, filling Su Yiqian with frustration, and she stomped her foot, bellowing her name, "Tang Xi!" Then, she snatched the medical record from Tang Xi’s hand and threw it to the ground, trampling on it.

"I’m talking to you, what’s with your attitude!"

Tang Xi furrowed her brows; she had already found this rich girl annoying, and now seeing her step on a patient’s medical records immediately aggravated her displeasure.

"Su Yiqian, you’re a doctor, and this is a hospital, not your home. I’m not your mother; do I have to listen to you whenever you speak?" saying that, she pushed Su Yiqian aside, bent down, and picked up the medical record from the ground.

Tang Xi took some tissue papers and wiped the dust off the medical record.

Su Yiqian was also pampered from a young age in the Su Family, who were involved in the business of medical equipment, which is why she was easily placed in the hospital.

Although she went abroad to add a touch of glamor to her background, her actual abilities were mediocre; she hardly ever attended outpatient clinics or participated in surgeries. Idle in the department, she would leave whenever she felt like it.

At this moment, her eyes widened as she stared at Tang Xi, "How dare you push me?!!"

Never having been treated this way since she was a child, Su Yiqian was about to get angry when suddenly she heard Gao Jianlin’s voice from outside, the talking coming through the door, and immediately, Su Yiqian collapsed onto the floor, tears in her eyes.

"Wuwu, Tang Xi, what did I do wrong for you to treat me like this."

Gao Jianlin and Vice Dean Gu came together, and as the two of them opened the door, they saw this scene.

Su Yiqian lay on the ground with tears in her eyes, while on the side, Tang Xi held the medical records, her expression cold.

Tang Xi’s brows twitched ever so slightly, disdainful of Su Yiqian still playing these unsophisticated tricks.

Gu Zhonghai frowned, "What are you doing! This is a hospital! Is this a place for you to lose your temper?? Do you still remember you’re doctors? It’s working hours now!"

Su Yiqian, as if she had fallen hard, sat on the ground for a long while without getting up, her tearful red eyes looking at Gao Jianlin, "Jianlin, it’s all my fault, I should not have argued with Dr. Tang. Dean Gu, I was wrong, it has nothing to do with Dr. Tang."

Gao Jianlin came in, he glanced at Tang Xi, and at this moment, Tang Xi also slightly lifted her gaze, their eyes collided. Seeing the clarity and purity in her eyes, Gao Jianlin slightly nodded at her, then bent down to help Su Yiqian stand up, "If you’re feeling unwell, you should go home."

"No, I can’t go home, I am a doctor, this is the hospital, my workplace, how can I just go back because I feel a little uncomfortable..."

While speaking, Su Yiqian staggered a bit, "I think I sprained my ankle, it hurts so much."

Gu Zhonghai glanced at Su Yiqian then at Tang Xi, and he said to Tang Xi, "Come to the office with me."

Gu Zhonghai is the Vice Dean in charge of Neurology, and likewise, he is also Tang Xi’s teacher.

In the four years that Tang Xi had been working here, she had always been the assistant in Gu Zhonghai’s surgeries.

He always gave Tang Xi opportunities to learn.

Gao Jianlin glanced at Gu Zhonghai, "Dean Gu, this matter has nothing to do with Dr. Tang... It must be a misunderstanding."

On the side, Su Yiqian saw Gao Jianlin speaking up for Tang Xi, grinding her teeth, her displeasure was written all over her face, "Jianlin, oh it hurts so much."

As she said it, she fell towards Gao Jianlin’s arms.

Gao Jianlin frowned and had no choice but to momentarily stabilize Su Yiqian by holding her arm, "If that’s the case, I’ll speak on your behalf and have your family’s driver come pick you up, go home and rest for now."

"Don’t... Jianlin, stay here with me for a while." Saying this, Su Yiqian clung to Gao Jianlin’s arm, afraid that he would leave to plead with Gu Zhonghai on behalf of Tang Xi.

The last thing Gao Jianlin liked was such unreasonable disturbances, he never had any other feelings towards Su Yiqian.

"Dr. Su!" he became stern, his eyes sharp and cold, "This is a hospital, if you’re thinking about love and romance, it would be better if you resign sooner. I believe in the upper circles of North Island, there must be plenty of wealthy suitors after you. Why waste your time on me!"

Su Yiqian was frightened by his indifferent demeanor, her eyes instantly reddened.

"Gao Jianlin, we’ve known each other for so long, if back then you had chosen to go abroad with me, we now... might already be together. Back then, we clearly had good feelings for each other...."

Speaking of the past, Gao Jianlin withdrew his arm and sneered coldly, "Su Yiqian, I remember, your father said that I was nothing but a bastard, a penniless nobody, a discarded child abandoned by the Gao Family! How your parents treated me four years ago, don’t you know?"

Su Yiqian took a deep breath, "No... it’s not like that, my parents... they... they were confused at that time, and I, I have never despised you because of your status. Jianlin, since I was a child, it’s always been you whom I’ve liked."

"How I remember it, you went abroad with Lin Huai Xuan for your studies, how come? He didn’t come back with you? Or is it that now the Lin family is in decline, you’ve given up on him and turned to find me instead?"
