Chapter 28: 027: Xie Shang fell under Wen Changling’s spell Chapter 28: 027: Xie Shang fell under Wen Changling’s spell “Your eyes are very beautiful.”

Wen Changling responded with a thank you, thanking him for the compliment and also for his eye drops.

The next day, Wen Changling worked the night shift. The entire department was very quiet at night, not too busy.

“Head nurse.”

Tu Qizhen answered, putting aside what she was doing.

Wen Changling approached, “About yesterday—”

“I’ve already heard about it.”

It must have been Madam Qi who complained. Wen Changling was just about to express her apology.

Tu Qizhen asked her, “How long did you talk with that mother and son yesterday?”

“About fifteen minutes.”

“You’re really patient. This morning when I got a call from Madam Qi, I couldn’t listen for three minutes without getting fired up.” Tu Qizhen gestured to her forehead to indicate her anger, “I don’t know where Madam Qi gets her sense of superiority from, as if all the women in the world put together aren’t worthy of her precious son Junjun. She speaks without any decorum and still has the audacity to come and complain. It’s my fault, I trusted my classmate’s nonsense and thought he really was some outstanding young talent and elite lawyer.” After venting, she asked Wen Changling, “You didn’t suffer any loss, did you?”

Wen Changling shook her head: “No loss.”

“That’s good then. No matter what that mother and son said, hurry up and reset to zero, forget all about it.” One wouldn’t need to think too hard to know that nothing good could come from Madam Qi’s mouth, Tu Qizhen felt very remorseful, “Next time I’ll introduce you to a real young talent, and I won’t let you suffer any loss, I’ll vet them myself.”

Tu Qizhen wanted to find someone really good for Wen Changling, someone with not only a good family background but also good character.

“I’m not in a hurry to date,” Wen Changling said shyly, “I want to take my time choosing.”

Tu Qizhen proceeded to ask along those lines, “So, what type do you like?”

Wen Changling thought about it: “Someone well-behaved.”

And not just that—

“Very well-behaved.”
