95 Losing sleep (1/2)

When Shao Hua returned home after seeing Zhang Fan off, her parents were waiting for her in the living room. Both of them were looking at Shao Hua, making her really embarrassed. She had never seen her parents looking at her in such a way before.

”Hua, come tell mom about what's going on.” Her parents seemed as if they were prepared to go to war. When Shao Hua was younger, they were always worried about her injuring herself due to clumsiness, and now that she was older, they constantly worried about her getting scammed. Although Zhang Fan seemed like an alright guy, it would always be impossible to know what a person was truly like just based on a first impression. Of course her parents would be worried.

Shao Hua's father kept silently smoking. It was awkward for him to speak about his daughter's matters, but he was just as worried as his wife.

”Stop smoking so much in front of us. Do you want us to die from secondhand smoke?” his wife chided him.

”Mom, Zhang Fan is the marriage candidate that a head nurse at his hospital introduced to Jia Suyue. However, the two of them don't get along with each other, and Zhang Fan really made Jia Suyue angry. So, she called me over to help her out, but the result...!” Shao Hua was unable to say the rest.

”Why didn't they get along? Zhang Fan seems pretty nice, and Jia Suyue is quite pretty?”

”Maybe they're just incompatible. Even now, they're still not getting along with each other.”

”This Zhang Fan isn't a gentleman, not getting along with a woman!” Shao Hua's father commented.

”It's not really about Zhang Fan, it's that Jia Suyue is rather angry, and keeps insulting him.”

”Suyue can be a bit spoiled. But, since he was introduced to her as a marriage candidate, it seems that Zhang Fan must be doing well at his hospital. Little Wang who lives on the 4th floor is a nurse at Chasu City Hospital, right? I'll try and learn some more about Zhang Fan from her. Also, be more polite in the future. Just look at you, you basically chased him out today. What will he think?” said Shao Hua's mother.

”What can he think? If he can't even take this much, we should get rid of him as early as possible. I've hardly ever scolded either of you in my entire life, but I don't want my Hua to suffer in the future,” Shao Hua's father said.

”Haha, you old rascal. Still, your father is right, Hua. If Zhang Fan isn't the type who can forget and forgive, you'll suffer in your marriage.”

”Yeah, I understand. So far, he seems alright. One of my classmates is his coworker. She really worships him.”

”Your classmate is a woman? You need to watch out. Don't be foolish. Also, the more excellent he is, the more you need to observe him. We don't ask that you marry someone rich, we only want you to have a happy and peaceful life.”

Meanwhile, Zhang Fan was smiling foolishly as he returned to his apartment. He had successfully introduced himself to Shao Hua's parents! He felt that it was really effective. After the first time, he would have an excuse to often go in to visit.

While Shao Hua's entire family was rather anxious due to Zhang Fan's visit, he was incredibly overjoyed. He even began to plan how to make Shao Hua's parents accept him as quickly as possible. He really didn't want to be single anymore. It was easier when he was super busy with work, but now that he had more free time, he really did feel lonely.

Shao Hua's mother was a nice person who had a good relationship with her neighbors. The woman surnamed Wang living upstairs just happened to be a veteran nurse from the surgical departments' operating rooms. Nurse Wang typically got along quite well with Shao Hua's mother.

”Oh, you're asking me about Zhang Fan, that Doctor Zhang? He's really amazing and hardworking. He's a new surgeon who joined our hospital recently. Out of all the newcomers, he's the most amazing of them all. All the orthopedic surgery departments and general surgery departments are fighting over him, trying to recruit him. He's also quite nice, and has a smile for everyone. Many of the younger nurses like him as well. He's in a romantic relationship with Hua now?”

”We still haven't checked their birthtime compatibility yet. You must keep it a secret.”
