Chapter 58 - 57: Is Your Husband Handsome or Dr. Gao Handsome?
Xia Zi never dreamed that she would one day be able to see Gao Chuan from such a close distance. After all, he had always been a senior she admired. Upon meeting him in person, she became so nervous that she was momentarily lost for words. Listening to Jiang An directly introducing her as a little fangirl of his, her face flushed with shyness. Jiang An witnessed her standing frozen in place like a fool upon seeing Dr. Gao and stealthily pinched Xia Zi’s arm, saying, "Say something."
For Xia Zi, everything felt like a dream. It was only after Jiang An’s reminder that she barely snapped back to reality, nodding her head like she was pounding garlic, with her gaze fixed on Gao Chuan. Her speech became awkward: "Um, um, um."
The three of them stood in the corridor, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Overwhelmed by her idol, Xia Zi’s speech was incoherent, "Great god, I... I am Jiang An’s... good friend, and I really admire your..."
Jiang An never expected that the usually extroverted Xia Zi would one day be too shy to speak. Her stumbling manner was somehow endearingly cute.
Gao Chuan faced the two nervously fidgeting young women with a gentle look, standing quietly and listening to Xia Zi’s hesitant words. His gaze inadvertently shifted to Jiang An beside him, noticing her making faces at him in an attempt to convey a message. Their eyes met briefly; the man seemed to have received the girl’s message, cleared his throat, and said to Xia Zi, "Hello."
At this moment, Xia Zi felt like a volcano erupting inside her, never expecting that her idol would actually greet her personally. She was pleasantly surprised.
Gao Chuan glanced at his wristwatch and mentioned that he still had things to tend to in his department. He then warmly bid farewell to the two women. It was only after his figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor that Jiang An finally breathed a sigh of relief, while Xia Zi was still immersed in the excitement of meeting her idol, her face still dreamy.
Although aware that Gao Chuan got to know Jiang An through treating her mother, as they left the hospital, Xia Zi couldn’t help but pry into their relationship, "Are you very close to my idol?"
"Well, sometimes we greet each other when we meet," said Jiang An with a calm exterior but internally panicking. Considering if sharing a bed with Dr. Gao counted as being close.
