Chapter 113 - 112: Why Have You Just Arrived?
Seeing Jiang An go to the break room to get water, Ren Lin took the opportunity to follow her. Jiang An put her cup on the water dispenser, looked up, and saw Ren Lin standing beside her with an embarrassed smile. She lowered her head, wanting to continue filling her cup with water.
Just then, Gao Chuan, who had just finished a surgery, wanted to come in for a drink of water. He stopped abruptly at the doorway when he saw the two standing side by side by the water dispenser, his expression cooling a few degrees as he overheard the conversation coming from inside.
Ren Lin appeared to be inviting Jiang An to his birthday party that evening. His voice echoed in the ears of Dr. Gao at the door, causing the man to furrow his brows and silently turn away from the break room.
"There are only a few friends invited; Song Ya and the others have also agreed. I hope you can come too," Ren Lin said, standing in front of Jiang An, adding hastily as if afraid she would refuse, his voice betraying embarrassment as he scratched his head.
Jiang An picked up her now full cup, hearing the sincerity in Ren Lin’s words, but still made an excuse to decline.
She wasn’t fond of such awkward circumstances to begin with, and she wasn’t that familiar with Ren Lin either.
Ren Lin caught the refusal in Jiang An’s words and a flicker of disappointment flashed in his eyes, though his face still carried a smile, "It’s okay, no worries."
