Dio's smile now can be said to be genuine. Pepper was really considerate enough to find a famous beautiful doctor to teach him.
Haven't you heard the saying? Working together is not tiring, and the same applies to studying. Which is more efficient, studying with an old man or with a beautiful doctor like this? Don't you have any idea
When he first heard the name, he almost thought it was Benedict Cumberbatch, the detective who switched careers to become a doctor.
But it’s okay, how could it be such a coincidence.
"Before coming here, I thought Dr. Stephen was a man. I didn't expect that he was such a beautiful lady." Dio praised jokingly.
Then he realized something was wrong. The beautiful doctor opposite him smiled awkwardly and said, "Sorry, Dr. Strange is indeed a man. He is in the operating room now. There is a patient who needs Dr. Strange to operate on him personally."
Dio was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously glanced at her chest.
Don't get me wrong, he was just looking at the name written there.
Perhaps noticing his surprised look, the beautiful doctor quickly explained, "My coat got dirty accidentally before, so I borrowed Dr. Strange's coat to wear. I am his colleague, Christine Palmer, also a surgeon."
New York can't really be that small, right
Dio suddenly had a bad feeling, but he reacted quickly and shook the hand that Dr. Palmer extended to him, then let go as soon as he touched it.
"Hello, Dr. Palmer, I'm sorry I mistook you for someone else."
"No, no, no, this is my mistake. If you want to wait for Doctor Strange, please come in first. He should be back soon."
As Christine spoke, she wanted to invite Dio in, but perhaps because of the misunderstanding just now, she was a little flustered. When she turned around, her left foot tripped over her right foot and she was about to fall flat on her face.
"It's over, it's over, I'm going to be embarrassed again!" She closed her eyes subconsciously.
But the expected pain did not appear. She opened one eye little by little, and then found herself lying in the strong and powerful arms of a man, and she didn't know when her hands were around his neck. The posture of the two was extremely ambiguous.
"How are you?"
Facing the gentle questioning from the handsome man in front of her, Christine felt her heart beating a little faster, her lips became dry, and her face became a little hot and red.
She wasn't usually such a fangirl, seeing handsome British men like Dr. Strange every day shouldn't be like this.
"Christine! You have to be reserved! Stand up quickly!"
After staring at each other for a few seconds, Christine, who felt like her heart was about to jump out of her throat, was the first to avoid looking at them. Then she stood up hurriedly. For some reason, her legs were still a little weak and she almost fell down again. In the end, she simply sat on the sofa, fanning her face while picking up the coffee that had long been cold and gulping it down.
"Does Dr. Palmer not exercise regularly? Although it is important to treat illnesses and save lives, you should also pay attention to your own health issues."
After Dio came in, he looked around the environment and suggested with a smile that maybe his tuition for this period of time would fall on Dr. Palmer, who was a business genius who even recharged himself while attracting business for himself.
"Well, I haven't been working out recently. By the way, what would you like to drink, coffee?" Christine choked and quickly changed the subject. She really didn't want to discuss her embarrassing behavior just now.
"No need to bother, thank you."
Dio, whose taste was like that of an elementary school student, clearly refused, and then the room fell into an eerie silence.
Awkward... ... The atmosphere is extremely awkward!
Christine, feeling uncomfortable, tried to break the atmosphere and asked, "Mr. Dior? Can I call you that?"
"Just call me Dio, no need to be so formal."
"Okay, then you can call me Christine. Can I ask which university you graduated from? Maybe we are alumni." Christine tried to find common topics from the school perspective. After all, she knew all the famous medical schools. Even if they were not from the same university, she could still find some topics to talk about, so it wouldn't be as awkward as before.
But she obviously miscalculated.
"Actually, I didn't study medicine. I studied other majors when I was in school."
Christine was stunned. Among the 76 answers she had anticipated, this one was not one of them.
If you are not a medical student, why would you come here to be an intern? And you even mentioned Doctor Strange
Given Doctor Strange's temper, he doesn't seem like someone who would agree.
Oh, by the way, the name of the CEO of Stark Industries was mentioned just now. Is that because of this
"Sorry, I don't quite understand. Have you learned it by yourself before?"
Dio shook his head. "For some reason, I want to quickly and systematically learn some knowledge about the human body structure, but my time is limited, so I asked a friend for help."
Christine was immediately speechless. He didn't know whether to say that he was ignorant and fearless or to sigh at his friend's great power. He could actually convince the arrogant Dr. Strange to agree. It was really luxurious.
If it's just this level of knowledge, why not go to school to learn it
Should we say it is a quirk of rich people
"Dr. Strange's personality is a little difficult to get along with, but he is really a good person, so when we meet later, I hope you don't mind if there is anything unpleasant." Christine began to give precautions in advance.
"Of course, I cherish this opportunity to learn. I also know that most capable people have some eccentric personalities or habits. As long as it does not touch my bottom line, I will respect Doctor Strange very much."
After hearing Dior's assurance, Christine felt relieved. It seemed that what she had worried about before would not happen.
I just hope Dr. Strange can be more patient...
Without making Theodore wait, just as the two of them were gradually beginning to communicate peacefully and happily, Dr. Strange, who was already a long time late for the agreed time, finally showed up.
And as soon as they met, he gave Dio a warning.
"Hello, Doctor Strange, I am..."
"Are you the person with connections that the dean forced on me? I advise you to go to a random medical school for further study. That way you will realize how naive your current ideas are and lose interest in medicine. This is for my own good, and for yours as well. Everyone's time is precious, isn't it?"
