Chapter 4

Sun Xia only felt unspeakable fear.

He doesn't want to stay in this room anymore.

But the second he wanted to turn and run away he was caught by a big hand.

"...Let go of my hand...!"

"Don't go! Sun Xia!" Lu Dao stopped him. Hearing his emotional voice, Sun Xia stopped.

"I really want to ask you." Lu Dao whispered to Sun Xia who he was carrying him. And Lu Dao, who said this, had a different feeling from how he was a second before.

"...If it were you, how would you deal with the letter you received from the patient? Would you read it?"

Sun Xia turned his head to see Lu Dao when he asked. He is interpreting the meaning in Lu Dao's words. At this moment, Lu Dao's eyes no longer had the coldness that was just now, instead of the most vulnerable part of his heart.

"I will first put myself in the position for the girl who wrote to you, and of course I won't throw it away arbitrarily!" Sun Xiao said loudly.

Lu Dao's eyes looking at Sun Xia were uneasy and sincere.

Sun Xia's mind couldn't help passing Zhao Xin's smile. Why did Zhao Xin write this letter? And how much courage do I need to summon the letter to Lu Dao? Now even if Lu Dao is remorseful, he has obviously failed Zhao Xin's innocent feelings.

"Sun Xia."

Sun Xia wanted to shake Lu Dao's grasp of him away, but was caught even tighter.

"Let go!"

"I understand... I really understand!"

Lu Dao's sad cry was in Sun Xia's ears, and he couldn't help but look at the man squarely.

"... Even if I should imagine what Zhao Xin's mood is... But, as a doctor, I can't just be special to this girl! She is still a high school student." Lu Dao was already a little regretful.

Sun Xia retorted to Lu Dao: "As long as you read her letter, you don't want you to be special to her. This is the minimum respect for the writer. Because she is young, that kind of motive is intentional. In my eyes, you are not the kind of person who doesn't even have the least respect?"

Lu Dao, who expected Sun Xia to say this, still grabbed his hand and said nothing.

He just looked at Sun Xia's eyes silently. The intense gaze made Sun Xia feel suffocated, but he couldn't bear to divert his gaze.

"......Sorry."

Sun Xia was at a loss for the dramatic change in Lu Dao's attitude.

"I'm sorry I am so complacent." Lu Dao admitted his mistake and bowed deeply and apologized: "I also didn't understand your feelings about that child for a while."

Seeing this, Sun Xia was heartbroken. Because of Lu Dao's burly figure, who was bent over, was like a large dog wagging his tail to beg his owner. This is obviously different from Lu Dao, who is usually lively and angry.

"Maybe the operation is about to be done. I'm a little nervous... I'm sorry, I'm a little gaffe."

"..." Lu Dao's sincere apology made Sun Xia feel rash, and he couldn't speak for a while.

Because Lu Dao is about to undergo a major operation. This hard task made Lu Dao and Sun Xia feel very heavy. In the face of the surgical hand, Lu Dao was under pressure that others could not predict.

He thought that Lu Dao could always face the challenge of surgery calmly, but this is not the case. Sun Xia remembered what he said when he held the knife for the first time.

Lu Dao said that as long as it is a human being, there will be tension. He also use this sentence to motivate himself . Even if he is as good as Lu Dao, can the patient not be nervous if he puts his life in his hands?

"Excuse me... Dr. Lu, I was too reckless." Sun Xia was scornful for her behavior, and touched Lu Dao's white clothes with both hands: "I should apologize to you, let alone break in at this time. ."

"You are not wrong. But as long as you think of surgery, you get nervous... As for the girl who believed in me..."

Lu Dao's side face, biting his lip, was more painful than ever. Sun Xia couldn't help wondering why he forced Lu Dao so unbearable.

No matter how nervous they are, no one is allowed to destroy the patient's trust in Lu Dao.

"Doctor Lu..." Sun Xia couldn't say anything, but dropped her shoulders.

"...I'm sorry, Sun Xia, we can only talk about this..." Lu Dao looked at his watch and had to prepare for the operation.

To Lu Dao who was a little bit disheartened, Sun Xia shook his head and said, "Don't say that, I shouldn't be so emotional..."

"Sun Xia, are you free tonight?"

Sun Xia listened to him in surprise.

"I can't say that it's to apologize to you. If you are free, can you join me for a meal?"

Sun Xia hesitated, not knowing how to answer him: "Actually, you don't need to apologize to me..."

"Aren't you willing to dine with me?" Lu Dao said, lowering his eyebrows. Because Lu Dao's pleading words sounded very sincere.

"No, no, I can't ask for it."

Lu Dao smiled after listening. When Sun Xia saw Lu Dao returning to his usual look, he let go of his heart.

"thank you."

That smile belonged to Sun Xia's respected boss again. He couldn't help but sighed long.
