Chapter 5 - 4 Glowing in the Pouring Rain
Two people were conversing when a beautiful woman wearing high heels walked in, holding a pure black umbrella. Seeing Gao Chuan seated in the corner, she walked straight towards him, her high heels making a "clack clack" sound on the floor.
"Hello, you are Dr. Gao Chuan, right?" The woman approached the table and directly ignored Jiang An standing aside, asking straightforwardly.
"Yes, Bai Yiting?" Gao Chuan stood up, his gaze falling upon the woman before him, dressed in a sapphire blue business suit, her face covered with thick makeup, her entire figure supported by a pair of seven or eight centimeter high heels. While she looked spirited, she could not fully hide the fatigue on her face.
"Hello, I'm sorry for making you wait, there was a last-minute issue at the company that I couldn't get away from." Bai Yiting took her seat proactively, picked up the menu from the table and started looking at it, stealing glances at the man in front of her.
His looks and physique are passable, but his career—not so much. A regular department doctor, likely doesn't earn nearly as much as what she spends in a month.
Jiang An saw a woman suddenly come in and, after a moment of surprise, quickly composed herself and bent down to patiently ask the woman what she wanted to order.
The two had never met before, but Bai Yiting had heard a bit about Gao Chuan. The youngest son of the Gao Family abandoned the family business worth billions to study medicine. Normally, the one representing the Gao Family in public was the eldest son, Gao Yu, and the younger son was almost forgotten due to his perennial studies. But after all, he was a member of the Gao Family, and face must be given.
"Dr. Gao must be a very romantic man," Bai Yiting said as she watched the man in front of her gaze transfixed at the curtain of rain climbing the clear glass window.
"It's okay." Gao Chuan returned to his senses, facing the woman's haughty demeanor and really could not muster up the interest to find a topic for conversation.
For him, blind dates represented the unknown, unlike his surgeries. Often, a successful operation required him to spend a lot of time getting to know the patient's physical condition in advance, understanding every step thoroughly.
He never did anything he was not sure of.
