My Youth Began With Him

”That is correct.”

”No, I want to see him. I need to ask him for myself!” Wu Xiaoxue insisted, unwilling to give up.

In the end, Ning Zhiyuan had to carry her away from the director’s office. The scene she was causing was just too embarrassing.

When Huo Mian and Huang Yue got all their stuff and were about to leave, their colleagues from the OB/GYN department gathered by the doors to send them off.

Department Chief Wang quietly tugged at Huo Mian’s sleeve, ”Good job last night, the surgery was done perfectly.”

”Thank you, Chief Wang,” Huo Mian smiled.

”When you have the time, I want to treat you to dinner so we can discuss specifics.”

”Um…” To Huo Mian’s surprise, Chief Wang, known for her stellar surgical skills, was offering to treat Huo Mian to dinner to discuss surgical methods.

”Huo Mian, stay there for now. Once this incident blows over, I will ask the director to transfer you back.” The head nurse was sad that Huo Mian was leaving.

”Don’t worry, Head Nurse, I’m fine anywhere.”

”Yeah, Head Nurse, I’ll keep her company. Don’t worry.” Huang Yue, holding a cardboard box, snickered behind Huo Mian.

She was elated to be transferred to the laboratory.

She had to cover night-shifts at the OB/GYN department and earned a really low salary. However, working in the lab would be different.

They would only be drawing blood and conducting tests with equipment that was already there. Most importantly, there were no night-shifts at the lab.

That means that she would no longer have to stay up all night; it was a great feeling. Technically, the hospital was punishing them, but Huang Yue felt like the director was, on some level, rewarding them.

Huo Mian sadly bid farewell to her colleagues at the OB/GYN department and headed to the laboratory with Huang Yue.

The chief physician of the lab was a middle-aged man; he was plump, wore glasses, and had a cute smile. His name was cute too: Han Dongdong.

”Chief Han, I’m Huo Mian. Nice to meet you.”

”Oh gosh, you’re Huo Mian? Come, sit down.”

”Um… it’s fine, I can stand.”

”Nonsense, come and sit down! Tell me, how did you bravely perform the surgery on that pregnant patient last night? I heard that you even knew how to administer anesthesia. Have you studied it before? Why didn’t you apply to become a doctor, since there are not many prospects to being a nurse? You’re so diligent at work, are you a Virgo? Oh, and what’s your favorite color?”

Chief Han asked her a series of questions. Confused, Huo Mian wasn’t sure which one she was supposed to answer first.

Finally, she concluded: Chief Han was not only chubby, but he was also talkative.

However, with a boss like that, her life would be much easier. He seemed amiable.

Even Huang Yue knew how to draw blood and do tests; naturally, Huo Mian could do it blindfolded. It was easy as pie.

Everything was fine until she saw Liu Siying at the laboratory. Huo Mian was shocked.

”I’m surprised to see you here,” Liu Siying said coldly when she saw Huo Mian.

Huo Mian was just as surprised to see her high school classmate – no, rival – on her first day at the lab.

She wasn’t really a romantic rival, because Qin Chu never even looked at her. Just a while back, he made her look bad in their high school WeChat group.

”I’m surprised as well,” Huo Mian replied.

”Draw my blood, I’ve been super sick from the flu and want a routine blood test.”

”Are you sure you want me to do it?” Huo Mian reinstated.

”Of course, I spent the money, aren’t you suppose to service me?” Liu Siying’s tone was overbearing.

”What I meant was, I don’t want you to worry that I might take out my grudge on you.”

”Do you have to guts to?”

”The truth is, I don’t like you. So, I won’t be too nice when drawing your blood. Just suck it up.” Then, Huo Mian picked up a needle and pricked it into a vein in Liu Siying’s arm.

That sudden prick hurt a little, causing Liu Siying to furrow her eyebrows.

”I heard that you got back together with Qin Chu?” Liu Siying suddenly asked her.
