She was a radiant beauty on one side, and Louis, who had been silent all along, glanced in her direction.
The girl turned her face to the side. Her hair was tied back simply to reveal a slender, fair- skin neck. In the sunlight, her thick, curly eyelashes fluttered like delicate butterfly wings which brought her features to life.
Although her face showed no extra emotion, her gaze on the patient was focused and meticulous.
Louis‘ heart stirred, prompting him to look away.
He then listened to Noah and Declan arguing over Angela, both vying for her attention with their words.
This scenario felt familiar, reminiscent of their freshman year when they fought over someone, but now it seemed more intense.
Louis pursed his lips, his dark eyes lowered and he realized he wasn’t the only one interest
in her.
Just as he pondered this, Louis heard Noah speak suddenly, “Louis, why are you just standing there? Show some compassion and help your fellow student a bit.”
With that, Noah and Declan walked toward the side corridor while conversing in hushed
tones.
Louis was momentarily taken aback, then he made his way toward Angela.
As he approached, he attended to the patient on his side while secretly observing her.
Angela displayed professionalism in her techniques. She asked sharp and precise questions: and did not exhibit any signs of a new student catching up on coursework.
She worked swiftly, leaving little room for others.
With Louis‘ assistance, the remaining patients were seen in no time.
Once finished, Angela rubbed her sore wrist, and then tidied up the table. It had been a while. since she had seen patients so intensively.
She really couldn’t bear it for a while, and her wrists were sore.

Louis stood with his hands in his pockets and his gaze fixed on her. After a moment of silence, he spoke, “You’re quite cunning, playing dumb when you’re actually quite capable, Angela.”
Was she cunning?
She chuckled and glanced at him. “Did I ever say I couldn’t handle it?”
She had simply never received formal training, but that didn’t mean she couldn’t do it.
A few seconds later, she looked up and suddenly said, “So, about Alex’s issue, be mindful. As a medical student, the last thing you want to do is ignore medical problems. You’re his good friend, so advise him to seek treatment sooner rather than later, to avoid complications.”
After saying that, she blinked innocently.
This was her last act of kindness as a classmate.
Louis exhaled sharply, his dark eyes deepened as he gritted his teeth and replied, “I understand. Thank you, classmate.”
Classmate?
Angela furrowed her brow in confusion. How could she be a classmate when they were classmates?
“Hey, don’t be so affectionate. Call me classmate Kins. I don’t want your admirers to think I’m leading you on. I don’t need that kind of trouble, thanks.”
Louis‘ expression visibly darkened and his veins bulge on his forehead.
He must have been out of his mind to speak to her like this!
Louis emanated a cold aura as he took long strides to put some distance between himself and Angela.
Left undisturbed, Angela retrieved her book from her backpack and resumed reading.
Meanwhile, down the hallway, Declan hesitated before bringing up Winter’s situation. He was present and could provide an objective account of what happened.
Noah responded solemnly, “Yes, Winter has been a bit extreme lately. Her fiery personality needs to be balanced by someone. Now that she has Angela to contend with, it will be

beneficial
Declan hesitated again. Winter’s situation was more complex than just needing balance.
But since Winter wasn’t his student, he couldn’t say much.
Declan stopped the conversation there and talked about some other things. Then the two of them went back to meet Louis and Angela.
“You guys must’ve been tired after a whole busy morning, huh? Let me take you guys to eat at the hospital cafeteria. Noah invited them to follow.
Declan turned around, with a smile on his face, and added, “This hospital is well–off, the cafeteria’s food is outsourced, and it’s the best! Otherwise, with your teacher being so picky. he wouldn’t go and would just take you out to eat.”
At the mention of food, Angela’s eyes lit up. “Sounds delicious! What’s the specialty dish? Let’s hurry, it’s already half past twelve, what if there’s no food left!”
Upon hearing her words, the two old men quickened their pace. The young girl made a lot of
sense!
They grasped the essence in an instant.
Louis trailed behind while lost in his thoughts.
As the group walked away, on the second floor by the floor–to–ceiling windows, a tall figure of a man, with a toothpick in his mouth, took out his phone and made a call.
Although the man was wearing a white coat, his rugged and fierce face, coupled with a sharp crew cut, didn’t look like a doctor; he looked more like a beast in a white coat.
After about ten seconds, the call connected.
Daniel clicked his tongue.“Hey, could you pick up the call? How long has it been ringing? Am I not a priority to you,
bro?”
“Cut to the chase, or I’ll end the call, came the icy response.
Daniel grunted in annoyance. With a narrowed gaze, he glanced in the direction the girl had disappeared. “I spotted your wife at the hospital.”
As expected, there was silence on the other end.

Upon seeing this, he chuckled mischievously. “I have to say, your wife looks good in a white. coat. When you get back, have her put it on for you to see, and you’ll be filled with. happiness!”
“I don’t need my eyes anymore, I’ll send Simon to fetch them.”
Hey, this guy is getting impatient!
Of course, Jonathan’s impatience was understandable for he had a wife who was exceptional, being both reserved and remarkable at the same time.
After joking around, Daniel reported what he had just seen. “Your wife really shined at the joint charity clinic this time, she even sat in Declan’s spot. From now on, there will be many people watching her, so you better lay low to avoid. any trouble.”
Jonathan put down his pen, his slender fingers fiddled with his jade bracelet, and then said calmly, “Since she’s a bright pearl, let her shine brightly and outshine everyone else.”
Daniel raised an eyebrow, hung up the phone, and glanced in the direction where Angela had disappeared, but she was already gone.
He hummed a tune and turned to leave.
The food in the cafeteria was indeed appetizing. After several hours of work, Angela was so famished.
She felt as though she could devour an entire cow, but despite her hunger, she found herself unable to eat much. Trying to consume more only left her stomach feeling uncomfortable and on the verge of nausea.
They were still eating, so Angela said she would go for a walk to help with her food digestion.
Noah and Declan nodded and did not show any objection.
Just as Angela left the cafeteria and passed by the outdoor square, she suddenly saw a familiar figure.
“Uncle Donald!”
