Chapter 129 Just Covering Up
Chapter 129 Just Covering Up
When Zhao Congyi came back just now, Gu Wan didn't lock the door, but just left it ajar.
"Wow, you guys have already done it? We were thinking of coming to help."
Xu Wenyin pulled Li Fanghua to talk with surprise. Seeing six or seven dishes on the stove, her eyes lit up, especially when she looked up and found that it was Zhao Congyi who was cooking. His mouth was so big that he could fit an egg in it.
"Dr. Zhao...Dr. Zhao, did you fire him?"
Xu Wenyin swallowed hard, a look of disbelief on his face.
Zhao Congyi didn't take her behavior seriously and just responded lightly.
"Um"
Even Li Fanghua, who was usually calm, couldn't control her expression. There was nothing she could do, even though Zhao Congyi was in the same medical team with them.
But he has been very mysterious since he entered the hospital. Even the dean was very polite to him. Not only did he have an unattainable temperament, but he himself was also so cold that people dared not approach him.
There are many people in the hospital who admire him, but they are all turned away because of his temperament.
But I didn't expect that he was so down-to-earth and could even cook.
It was simply unbelievable. They looked at the food on the stove and thought fearfully, could the food be poisonous?
They watched Zhao Congyi cooking, but their feet quickly moved to Gu Wan's side, standing one on her left and one on her right.
"Gu Zhiqing, have you and Doctor Zhao been here all this time?"
Li Fanghua also looked at her nervously. Although she lowered her voice, it was still quite loud. Zhao Congyi remained indifferent and continued with his own work.
Gu Wan looked at Zhao Congyi and didn't understand what they meant by asking this, because she had never seen Zhao Congyi act so indifferent and distant in the hospital or in front of other people.
"Yes, these are all cooked by Dr. Zhao."
"It's incredible! You actually asked the most beautiful girl in our hospital to come down to earth and cook for us. If we eat this dish, I'm afraid we will become immortals!"
Li Fanghua also nodded.
Gu Wan stared at the two of them with wide eyes. Zhao Congyi raised his eyelids and glanced at them. They were so scared that they immediately became serious.
"It will be ready soon. Please arrange for someone to call them over for dinner."
"I, I'll go!" Li Fanghua said, and without waiting for Xu Wenyin to speak, he left her and ran away. Xu Wenyin was so angry that she wanted to stomp her feet, but there was nothing she could do because the person had already left.
She pulled Gu Wan awkwardly and said, "Gu Zhiqing, let's go clean up the table."
"Okay, the table has been cleared, all we have to do is bring the dishes over."
"Let's go, then. Quickly."
Gu Wan just thought she was hungry and didn't think much about it. She helped serve the dishes and get the bowls and chopsticks.
After serving two dishes, Xu Wenyin was no longer so nervous and was even able to joke with Gu Wan.
"You don't know, when Sister Li and I came here just now, looking at the two of you, especially the smoke from the stove, you really felt like a married couple living together."
"How is that possible? You are seeing things."
"Really, what I told you is true. You don't know how we were stunned for a moment when we stood at the door. The others standing next to Dr. Zhao always felt that something was wrong.
But it’s different wherever you stand, it feels like a little woman.”
In fact, what Xu Wenyin probably wanted to say was the feeling of a little wife, but unfortunately there was no such concept at that time.
"You're overthinking. Let's get to work quickly. They will be back soon." Gu Wan raised her voice and wanted to cover Xu Wenyin's mouth, while taking people to get the food.
Xu Wenyin thought Gu Wan didn't believe her, so she dodged Gu Wan's hand and was about to speak. When she looked up, she saw Zhao Congyi standing at the door with a bowl of food in one hand.
There was no expression on his face, and it was impossible to tell whether he heard what was just said.
Xu Wenyin felt as if someone had suddenly grabbed the back of her neck. She became silent instantly and gasped for breath, almost suffocating her to death.
Gu Wan's face also felt a little hot. She didn't know why she felt guilty, but she just didn't dare to look him in the face.
Zhao Congyi coughed lightly, shifted his gaze away from the two of them, walked in, put down the dishes, and turned to look at them in confusion.
"Is something wrong?"
His voice was very flat, without any ups and downs at all, which made the two of them feel a little unsure for a moment.
"It's okay, let's go and see why they haven't come yet." Gu Wan pulled Xu Wenyin and wanted to take her out and escape from here.
"Wait!" Just when the two thought they could finally escape, Zhao Congyi called them from behind.
The two of them turned their heads mechanically with stiff and painful smiles on their faces.
"Zhao, Director Zhao, what's the matter?" Xu Wenyin usually likes to call Doctor Zhao, but once she gets nervous and scared, she starts shouting for the director.
Zhao Congyi glanced at Gu Wan, then looked away and looked at Xu Wenyin, his lips slightly curved and a faint smile in his eyes.
"It's okay, I just wanted to remind you to pay attention to the steps."
"Ah! Thank you!"
Zhao Congyi smiled and said, "You're welcome."
The two of them were indeed walking carefully, and when they were crossing the threshold, they deliberately slowed down their movements. However, after both feet had crossed over, they acted as if something was chasing them from behind.
Just run away.
Zhao Congyi pursed his lips, withdrew his gaze, and followed him outside. There were still some dishes in the kitchen that had not been brought out, and the kitchen had not been cleaned up after cooking.
He prefers to see tidier places. The kitchen is a little too messy after cooking, so he has to tidy it up before he feels comfortable.
After Gu Wan and Xu Wenyin pulled each other out of the yard, they stood at the door and gasped.
There is quite a feeling of surviving a disaster.
"Wan Wan, you said, Director Zhao probably didn't hear it, right?"
Gu Wan didn’t know whether she heard it or not, but she felt guilty. Why would Xu Wenyin be so scared?
"Why are you so scared?" Zhao Congyi seemed to have a good temper, it was just a joke!
"You don't know, there is a doctor named Wu in our hospital. She has always been very domineering. Ever since she met Doctor Zhao, she has insisted on marrying him. She is also domineering and doesn't allow anyone to pay attention to him."
"Her family was relatively well-off, and many people in the hospital flattered her, so they often made jokes about her and Dr. Zhao to please her.
They said they looked like a couple, and then said something like Dr. Zhao must have fallen for Dr. Wu.
Then, you know what, Dr. Zhao directly called Dr. Wu’s lackeys, including Dr. Wu, to the dean’s office and asked the dean to fire them. They didn’t even have a chance to explain or beg for mercy.”
When Xu Wenyin heard about this, he patted his chest with lingering fear, looking scared.
