Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 2144: Chapter 2139: May I Ask a Question?

”Expert? Not really! I just have some unique insights and feelings in this field!” Hua Jin seemed cautious and humble.

Dr. Lu had a very good impression of him. Being fellow doctors, it was truly admirable that such a young person could achieve remarkable success.

”Dr. Hua! May I ask a question?” An Hao was somewhat uneasy about Hua Jin. She had some doubts that needed clarification. Otherwise, just the thought of having a dangerous person around made her shiver.

Although the purpose of spies is merely to gather intelligence, it doesn’t necessarily mean they will kill.

However, there’s also the possibility they might kill for intelligence in emergency situations. For example, Hong Mei!

”Sure! Feel free to ask. As long as I know the answer, I’ll tell you.” After Hua Jin finished speaking, he smiled and said, ”We aren’t much different in age; let’s use first names to address each other! Please don’t call me Dr. Hua! I hope to learn more from you all in the future!”

An Hao disregarded his request and directly asked, ”May I know, what is your relationship with Hou Zicheng?”

Hua Jin thought for a moment and said, ”He’s my patient! His heart isn’t in good condition. I performed heart surgery on him when he was in the United States! He’s quite a decent person, always remembering my kindness to him. So, I returned to Nancheng to meet him, and he treated me to a meal. It coincided with Yan Ye’s...”

He pretended not to remember Yan Ye’s name, pausing for a moment.

”Yan Ye.”

”Yes! Yan Ye’s wedding! And then, I accompanied him!” Hua Jin finished speaking, looking at An Hao curiously, ”Is there something unusual about that?”

”No... Nothing! Just wondering!” An Hao replied casually.

She intended to brush off the question lightly, but this man seemed persistently curious, wanting to dig deeper; ”An Hao, why did you ask me that question? I feel you seem a bit dissatisfied with me? Did I do something to displease you?”

”Does my attitude seem that obvious?” An Hao asked with a smile.

”Certainly! If I gave you a mirror, perhaps you’d see how much your attitude toward me just turned around completely!” Hua Jin laughed, his smile appearing very open.

Since she couldn’t avoid the topic, An Hao couldn’t tell Hua Jin directly, ”You’re in contact with spies, so I suspect you might be one too.”

So, An Hao said casually, ”It’s like this: I previously had a small business transaction with Hou Zicheng! But through this deal, I could sense that Hou Zicheng isn’t very loyal! He even stabs friends in the back for money! So, because you’re associated with someone like that, I just made a casual connection.”

”Oh, I see! I don’t have a close relationship with him!” Hua Jin replied, ”Regardless of what you think of him, Hou Zicheng treats me well as a doctor. He’s not here now, and I never discuss a friend when they’re not present!”

”Oh... I see.” An Hao smiled, ”If that’s the case, let’s not talk about it anymore! Let’s quickly eat; the food is getting cold...”

”Alright! Since we’ve met, please take care of each other in the future!” Hua Jin said, ”I hope we can become friends during the upcoming months of mutual learning!”
