Chapter 139 - 138: After So Long, You Still Can’t Even Breathe Properly
Chapter 138 After All This Time, Still Not Knowing How To Breathe
Jiang An had managed to calm her frantic heart only when she reached the entrance of the hospital. Every step she took away from Ren Lin felt like treading on thin ice.
But this was perhaps for the best; having laid it all out, even if they couldn’t be friends in the future, it was better than leaving things ambiguous.
No sooner had the girl lifted her foot towards the elevator than her phone in her pocket pinged twice.
Jiang An took it out to check and realized it was a message from Dr. Gao— one from twenty minutes ago and the other from just now.
Gao Chuan: Where are you
Gao Chuan: Come to my office
Seeing the sudden message from the man, Jiang An’s face registered confusion. She replied, asking if there was something he needed.
The elevator reached the floor, but Dr. Gao had yet to reply. Jiang An glanced at her phone and, with some time left before her afternoon shift, she quietly approached the door to Gao Chuan’s office.
The sound of the girl’s gentle knocking reached inside, where Gao Chuan was sitting in his chair with his eyes closed, resting. Below his striking pair of sword-like eyebrows, dark eyes as sharp as cold stars opened upon hearing the sound from outside, and he slowly went to open the door.
The moment the door was pushed open, Jiang An stood before him. She seemed not to have expected him to open the door for her and became somewhat flustered, just about to ask what he wanted when she saw the man step aside slightly, making way for her to enter, and coldly commanded, "Come in."
