She took in a deep breath before she knocked on the door, she felt the need to ready her mind, body and soul in preparation of the team leader's scolding, she entered when she heard her team leader ask her to enter.

She lowered her head as she stood in front of her desk with a remorseful expression on her face even though she doesn't feel remorseful, not even a bit.

"You can have your seat," she offered with her eyes fixed on the tablet in front of her, she was already expecting her to start lashing out on her so she didn't dare to do ask she asked, maybe it is a trap.

"Why are you not taking your seat?"

"Huh..." she raised her head to glance at the woman who was now looking at her with a blank expression on her face and a light pen in her hand.

"Oh...yeah," she hurriedly took her seat and cleared her throat.

"So what were you going to talk to me about when you came into my office earlier?" she asked with her attention concentrated on the tablet, Yu Yan was quite confused, she is speaking to her in a gentle manner and her facial expression doesn't show that she is angry....is she really not going to scold her?

"Are you not going to scold me for my behaviour earlier?" she didn't like the suspense so she would rather ask than freak out to death.

"Is that why you seem nervous?" she asked, raising her gaze.

"No...yes, I mean no...yes," she bit her lips and lowered her head in embarrassment, the team leader chuckled seeing how nervous she is because she thought she was going to get scolded.

"You are indeed nervous, I am not angry so there is no reason to scold you, they went too far so they deserved it but you should learn to control yourself, now tell me the reason why you came into my office before," 

"Oh...I wanted to discuss the patient's condition and also the teenage girl I diagnosed with leukaemia, as for the patient I almost performed surgery on, If she is allergic to anaesthesia then we cannot operate on her," Yu Yan informed with a worried expression on her face, she couldn't imagine someone being operated on without anaesthesia to numb their body.

"You will have to discuss with the anesthesiologist after she tests the patients for the cause of the allergy then you can carry out the operation, as for the leukaemia patient, we will need to discuss with the haematology and oncology department as soon as possible, I will assign the case to someone else so you don't have to worry about that,"

"But I..."

"Yu Yan, you need to remember that you are a resident surgeon, you can't do all these things at once, you can be involved in the process but this case belongs to a specialist, do you understand?"

"Yes, I will take my leave now," she stood up from her seat and bowed slightly before leaving the office, she agreed with what the team leader said but her greed for experience wouldn't let her take her hands off the case.

"I forgot to ask her why she mentioned Han Chen earlier...do they know each other?" Mrs Nanjing pondered, remembering when Yu Yan called Han Chen's name, she placed her jaw on her hand in thought.

She took the elevator to the top floor where the anesthesiologist that was in her surgical crew office is, she knocked on the door then she entered when she got the permission to enter.

"Surgeon Yu Yan," the woman called seeing her enter the office with a pleasing smile.

"I am sorry to disturb you but I need to..."

"I know, you want to talk about the patient with the anaesthesia allergy, actually, I already ran some test on her to know what component of the anaesthesia she is allergic to," she brought out a tablet from her drawer and handed it to Yu Yan, showing some scans and test result.

"She is allergic to the amide group of anaesthetics," Yu Yan remarked, reading the report on the tablet with a concerned look on her face.

"Yes but that isn't a problem now that we know the cause, we can just use an anaesthetic from the ester group so you can schedule another surgery soon," the woman assured with a smile, Yu Yan handed the tablet back to her and sighed deeply, she was worried that there might be no alternative but now that the anesthesiologist has confirmed that another surgery can be scheduled soon, she was relieved.

"Thank you very much, I will take my leave now," she thanked as she stood up from her seat the woman broadened her smile in response then Yu Yan left the office.

As soon as she entered the elevator to go to the next floor where her office is, she met Nurse Song who sighed in relief, she handed out a tablet in her hand and some files to her, Yu Yan collected them from her and scanned them.

"This is the result of the blood test taken to confirm the leukaemia diagnosis of the teenage patient?" Yu Yan asked, seeing that the results of the test looked similar to what she saw before but the stats have decreased.

"Yes, the radiology department conducted another test and it seems like her haemoglobin count has decreased, I thought I should show this to you since you are in charge of her case," Nurse Song responded but Yu Yan handed the tablet and files back to her with a sigh.

"The team leader said she is going to assign the patient to another surgeon and I am guessing she is going to choose An Ke to work with the specialist surgeon, they will have to meet with the haematology and oncology department to discuss the patient's condition so I suggest you show this to An Ke," she ended her statement with a smile but it didn't seem genuine then the elevator opened, she nodded at her and got out of the elevator.

"It seemed like she really wanted to be involved," Nurse Song remarked seeing her walk away as the elevator door closed.

She checked her wristwatch, she realized that she was supposed to have ended her shift an hour ago but she was too preoccupied with the patients in her care that she didn't even remember when her shift was ending.

She entered the changing room and changed into a cotton black coat, a white top tucked in blue jeans and a knee-length boot with a black shoulder bag across her body and left the changing room but she stopped when she heard the sound of her key chain falling.

She bent to pick it but then she noticed the car key hanging on the key chain, for some reason, she felt the car doesn't seem familiar to her and even the keys even though they look identical to how they are before.

Somehow, she felt her car has suddenly become more comfortable and smooth to drive, she placed the keys in her bag and left the hospital, she got to the parking lot where she parked her car, she started the car and drove off.

She was in traffic when she heard her reminder ringing tone, she brought out her phone from her bag and checked the notification, she knitted her eyebrow, reading the notification.

"How could I have forgotten about this?" she ran her fingers into her messy bun and placed them on her laps.

{Reminder: Picking up Chen Kai at the airport tommorow}

This is something she has waited for, for too long and she actually forgot about it.

"Strange...I would never forget something like this," she sighed deeply in conclusion that the stressful day she just had must have caused her to forget something as important as Chen Kai's return to China.

She opened the door to the apartment but she was greeted with the fragrant scent of a delicious home-cooked meal, probably prepared by her mother, she was surprised when she got to the dining table to see Li Na serving the dishes, wearing an oversized apron that belongs to her mother.

"Aunt," Li Na called seeing her arrive in the dining room like a ghost, the whole family turned back in surprise.

"Why do you always walk like a ghost?" her mother complained with her hand on her chest, she initially thought Li Na was just trying to prank them.

"Sorry," she walked to the dining table and sat beside her Li Jing at the table without bothering to change into something else first.

"Won't you take a shower first before you join us for dinner, you reek of medicines and antiseptic," Li Na complained with her hand over her nose with a disgusted look on her face, Yu Yan pouted her mouth at her remark and eyed her then she stood up from the seat and retreated to her room.

"Really lazy...I wonder who she got it from?" all eyes fell on her dad as soon as her mother made the remark but he just pretended he didn't notice them.

She took a shower and changed into her mickey mouse pyjamas, she packed her hair into a bun at the back and wore her mickey mouse hairband then she returned to the dining table.

"You are back," her father remarked

"Hmmm," she took her seat and scooped a spoonful of sticky white rice from her plate like a hungry lion then she stuffed it into her mouth and started chewing like she was being pursued.

"You must have been very stressed out today," her father remarked, placing a braised beef on her rice plate, she nodded in affirmation and scooped another spoonful of rice with the braised beef in her spoon then she stuffed into her mouth.

"Chew gently my dear daughter," he deboned the lobster on the plate and placed it on her rice bowl, she smiled seeing her father doting on her once more, she was about to scoop it again but someone else used a chopstick to remove it from her plate and placed it on Li Jing's plate.

Her mother nodded her head, " Shouldn't you be feeding yourself?"
