Chapter 144
"I was transferred to another unit and had been busy with surgeries for the past few days . I have some time off this evening, so we can have dinner together . " Tan Bengbeng's calm voice spoke from the other side of the line .
"I'll look for you after work!"
After settling on a meeting place with Tan Bengbeng, Nian Xiaomu hung up the phone .
She looked through the information on the computer again, but the smile on her face was now gone .
Using the information that Ye Mingmin had given her, Nian Xiaomu gave Shangxin's manager a call . However, when the manager heard what the call was about, he replied that Shangxin was not interested and then hung up the phone .
When she tried to call back, the call was sent directly to voicemail .
She took the information back to clarify with Ye Mingmin, but Ye Mingmin simply told her that she needed to think of a solution on her own since no one had Shangxin's personal cell phone number and all the liaising should be done with the manager .
When it was time to clock out from work, Nian Xiaomu was still sitting at her desk . She was at her wits' end .
"Aren't you leaving yet, Nian Xiaomu?" a colleague asked as she walked past .
Hearing this, Nian Xiaomu returned to her senses and realized that it was almost time to meet Tan Bengbeng .
She grabbed her bag, said goodbye to the colleagues in the department, and dashed out of the Yu Corporation building .
She hailed a taxi and gave the driver the address of a small restaurant .
"Darling!" Once she got out of the car, Nian Xiaomu ran toward the person waiting for her at the entrance of the restaurant .
She gave Tan Bengbeng a hug and a peck on the face, then said, "I missed you so much . I called you so many times, yet you did not return a single call! You're too heartless!
In contrast to her passionate show of affection, Tan Bengbeng's reaction was a lot colder and indifferent .
After being kissed, she calmly took out a piece of tissue paper from her jacket and cleaned her face .

"There are over 600 different types of bacteria in a human being's saliva . It also carries many agents of diseases and might infect other people . . . "
Nian Xiaomu: " . . . !!!"
She was not going to listen to Tang Bengbeng's ranting!
Tan Bengbeng's occupational habit was so maniacal that it drove people up the wall .
It was only because Nian Xiaomu had high tolerance that she could survive being around Tan Bengbeng for such a long time .
"Shall we go in to eat now?" Nian Xiaomu stopped Tang Bengbeng short in the middle of her speech and dragged her into the restaurant .
The place had been selected by Tan Bengbeng .
The restaurant wasn't very big, but it was quiet and exquisite . The decoration also had a sentimental tone to it .

Just like Tan Bengbeng's style .
At the hospital, she was frighteningly professional .
Outside the hospital, she was frighteningly silent .
Sometimes, when the two of them sat together for an entire day, Tan Bengbeng could go without speaking a single word .
She would simply listen to Nian Xiaomu talk nonstop . . .
Other people might think that she was aloof, but only Nian Xiaomu knew that she was the kindest doctor in the whole world!
"Two servings of Set A, a cup of coffee, and a cup of milk . " Tan Bengbeng was about to return the menu to the service staff after ordering food for the both of them when Nian Xiaomu held on to her arm .
With a disgruntled face, Nian Xiaomu groused, "Bengbeng, only little children drink milk at mealtimes . I'm already an adult!"

As she spoke, she lifted her chest to prove that her size was indeed that of an adult's .
Tan Bengbeng threw a glance at Nian Xiaomu's chest, raised her eyebrow, and asked, "So?"
"I want coffee too," Nian Xiaomu replied with a grin .
The next moment, Tan Bengbeng told the service staff, "Get her a glass of lemon juice . "
Nian Xiaomu: " . . . !!!"
"From a doctor's professional point of view, you cannot drink coffee too often . You have only just recovered, so drinks that contain stimulants are bad for your current state of health . . . "
She was at it again . . .
Nian Xiaomu immediately regained her composure!
She quickly turned to the service staff and requested, "Please get me a glass of lemon juice . Thank you!"
