True Love Waits

"Look! It's Dr. Tang! Guys, this is my brother's doctor!"

A middle-aged man in a green military uniform strode over and saluted Sheffield. "Dr. Tang, thank you! I want to thank you on behalf of everyone in the Mo family!"

The middle-aged man was the patient's younger brother, and a soldier stationed in another city. He applied for leave so he could be here for his brother's surgery. "You're welcome. Your brother is tough. Now what he needs is a hospital stay to get him as right as rain," Sheffield replied.

A graceful woman in expensive clothing looked at him with newfound appreciation. "Thank you so much, Dr. Tang. No other doctor had the courage to operate on my brother. Thank you for your hard work." "Not at all. It's my pleasure." Sheffield could understand them. He didn't lose his patience in front of them.

The middle-aged man shook hands with Sheffield. "Then I'll leave you be, Dr. Tang. If you need any help-anything, anything at all— the Mo family is at your service!"

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Mo!" replied Sheffield politely.

At this moment, Dollie put in, "Sheffield!"

All eyes were on Dollie. She came over and took Sheffield's arm. "I've been waiting for you for a long time. I'm proud of you!"

Seeing the public display of affection, everyone wondered if this was Sheffield's girlfriend. It certainly seemed like it.

"Thank you," Sheffield said to her. He still kept a smile on his face. After saying goodbye to the Mo family, he left with Dollie.

Along the way from the operating room to his office, many people said congratulations to him or gave him a thumbs up. When they saw Dollie on his arm, they were all envious of him. As soon as he passed by they began to talk about the two of them.

"Handsome, rich, and the dean's daughter likes him. He is so damn lucky!"

"Yeah, why can't we be as good? If I were half as good as he is, I'd be happy."
