Chapter 2314
He could not help but look at Ava a few more times. The joy and excitement in his heart were surging fiercely, but he told himself that he had to suppress his emotions.
“Why were you at the hospital, Miss Long?” Neil asked again.
Ava pursed her lips and smiled. “I had something to take care of. By the way, why were you there as well, Doctor?”
“I was specially invited to give a lecture,” Neil explained.
“Doctor, you’re so busy, yet you still need to take time out to check on Danny’s condition. Thanks for the trouble.” Ava thanked him very politely.
“It’s no trouble at all. You’re my fam—” Neil almost blurted out that she was his family member, but he hurriedly stopped himself. “I mean, after being a doctor for so many years, I’ve long regarded patients as my family. I'll feel happy and have a sense of purpose whenever they recover.”
“Dr. Long, you’re indeed an angel in white. You have such noble medical ethics too,” Ava praised. “Right, I wanted to look for you and tell you something. I’ve already made an appointment with my boyfriend. He’ll be able to meet you at noon tomorrow. I wonder if you’ re free then, Dr. Long?”
Neil agreed without hesitation. “It's absolutely fine. You can bring your boyfriend to the same hospital just now. It just so happens that Ill be in this hospital for half a day tomorrow.”
“That's great!” Ava could not hold back the joy and excitement in her heart. “Then I’ll need to trouble you when the time comes.”
She said and pointed to the subway station entrance in front. “Dr. Long, you can just stop in front. I can take the subway back by myself.”
“You don’t need to go through all the trouble. I'll take you home.” Neil continued to step on the accelerator as he explained, “I need to go meet Tom anyway, so your place will be on the way.” Ava understood what Neil meant. He was going to take her to the apartment near her company. However, she did not stay in that apartment. It was just that she had been there for the past two days.
Ava wanted to explain but she stopped herself. Instead, she just thanked Neil.
