Chapter 9, our entire family prays for you
The allure of uniforms! Although Wang Geng, a top student from the National Defense University, has always analyzed, digested, and absorbed both the dross and the essence of the capitalist world with a critical perspective
It is uncertain whether it is due to the prolonged restraint of the original owner Wang Geng's youthful skills, but Wang Geng feels that his younger brother Wang Xiaodi is clearly not as composed as he was in his previous life, when he could navigate through a myriad of flowers without a single petal touching him.
"Hey, you are the patient, don't move. I can manage it myself!" Kelly saw Wang Geng rushing forward to help her move the newspapers, and surprisingly, he was reluctant to let go.
What is this nonsense? I was a champion in my past life. Do you really think I wouldn't dare to take you on? If you insist on not cherishing yourself, I can just pack my bags and return to China. In the end, it will be you left in New York, crying while holding the child
Wang Geng chased to the door and shouted, "Hey, hey, remember to bring me a pack of cigarettes! I want Camel brand!" "Dream on! The patient still wants to smoke? Don't even think about it; I already took your wallet. I knew you would sneak off to buy cigarettes!" Nurse Kelly did not look back, proudly puffing out her chest as she walked down the corridor, her silhouette quite graceful.
In his previous life, when Wang Geng was a top player, the girls pursuing him could at least form a strong lineup. One would think that his ability to handle female fans would have been honed to perfection, yet for some reason, in this life, he finds it difficult to hurt the feelings of a stunningly beautiful nurse like Kelly. Meanwhile, his younger brother Wang seems to be at a loss; whenever Kelly gets close, he becomes awkward and clumsy, revealing an embarrassing demeanor.
Ah, Miss Kelly, I am truly afraid of you. There are so many fine young men in America. Why do you always keep your eyes on me? Looking at me like this, your grandfather's student, that Dr. Short is quite good! How about my classmate Mark from the pastry school this morning? He's quite tall and not bad looking either
Upon thinking of this, the young woman reluctantly nodded and said, "Alright, I will go bring her to see you! But don't talk for too long; you've met so many people and said so much today. If you get tired and faint again, that would be terrible!" "Don't worry! How about I accompany you to the hall to meet her? I wouldn't want you to run back and forth too much, that would make me feel bad!" Wang Geng wanted to follow along to gather some information about the hospital's layout and also to buy a pack of cigarettes.
Having finalized the plan for penicillin, this fellow turned around and began to worry about which channel to use to deliver the proposal to President Wilson's desk. If all else fails, what, am I supposed to scale a wall in the middle of the night to find him? The White House guards are no match for me, this elite special forces soldier. During the previous international special forces competition, those American special forces were simply no match for me!
The nurse Kelly, a flower among nurses, sways before me; the girl's delicate and charming gestures, combined with her fiery body language, and her ambiguous yet innocent big loli eyes, constantly tease and test me, the ace player from my past life
Wang Geng naturally knew that Kelly seemed to have a vague and unclear affection or liking for him. However, his mind was currently filled with thoughts of world wars, President Wilson, involvement in the war, Beiyang, Duan Qirui, and penicillin, so he truly did not dare to recklessly provoke a beautiful woman
Upon hearing that it was the mother of the rescued little girl, Wang Geng felt a sense of gratitude towards the mother and daughter who had fallen into the water yesterday. Although the little girl had accidentally slipped into the river while chasing her hat blown away by the wind, her mother, who had taken the girl out, bore an undeniable responsibility. However, if it weren't for that little girl named Catherine falling into the water, he might not have crossed over here at all
Hmph! Wearing sunglasses and a headscarf, do you think I can't recognize you? You're just the mother of that girl you saved yesterday! Someone else saved her daughter, and you were still unconscious. She actually took her daughter and left without even leaving a name, not even a thank you! What a disgrace to New Yorkers! What’s the point of coming back today? If you don’t want to see her, I’ll just have the front desk send her away!" Kelly said angrily, clearly upset that the mother and daughter had left the hospital so quickly without saying goodbye, which made the beautiful nurse feel that Wang Geng was not worth it! How could the person who was saved just leave without a word while their savior is still unconscious?
Hmph! Can Dr. Schott be a running back for the football team? That Mark of yours is quite tall, but can he be a shooting champion at West Point? Anyway, as long as you are in New York for a day, my gaze will not leave you! I am determined to pursue you! Those Princeton girls failed, not because they lacked ability, but because what I, Kelly Wilson, set my sights on, I always manage to obtain. Nurse Kelly straightforwardly confessed her feelings!
Wang Geng was left in a state of both laughter and tears by the girl's words. He shrugged helplessly and said, "This is truly unfair; I have never even seen what she looks like. However, the little girl who fell into the water yesterday, Catherine, looks like a porcelain doll. She might grow up to be a beauty!" "Hmph! You can tell that child is a beauty even at such a young age, yet you dare say you don't like beauties! Am I not as pretty as that little girl?" Kelly persisted.
In just a few months, I will be returning to my home country; I certainly cannot bring anyone back with me. Moreover, I am not mentally prepared to marry an American woman at this moment. As for a one-night stand, I am, after all, a top ace of the military district, a top ace of the army, and a top ace of national defense. I can certainly welcome the capitalist femme fatales.
Lost in thought, a loud bang echoed at the door. Before the fellow could stand up to open it, Nurse Kelly entered, leaning against the door while holding a large stack of newspapers. The newspapers reached all the way up to the young lady's chin, and the weight of them nearly bent her beautiful, slender waist.
Without saying a word, Wang Geng snatched all the newspapers and placed them on the table, unable to help but complain, "Oh dear Nurse Kelly, why are you so foolish? You should have called me earlier. If you hurt your delicate waist while moving such heavy newspapers, I would have a hard time explaining it to Dean Wilson!" In fact, it wouldn't be difficult for the young lady to find someone to help her move, but the problem was that all the nurses on the floor were eager to sneak into Wang Geng's recovery room, wanting to get close to this young hero idol. Kelly, for some reason, just didn't like other nurses circling around Wang Geng like she did, which is why she insisted on moving the newspapers by herself.
Hmph? So kind-hearted? Are you eager to see that married woman? When you were brought in yesterday, you were completely unconscious. How do you know she is a beauty? Why are you so anxious to meet her?" Kelly's emotional fluctuations were rapid, clearly fixating on a trivial matter.
Ah! Surrender! Surrender! I was wrong, isn't that enough? Nurse Kelly, you are the beloved beauty that everyone admires; as for the other beauties, I can treat them as if they were air, can't I? Wang Geng felt a wave of frustration; it was best to surrender in this matter with this girl.
This fellow was lost in a wild and absurd train of thought when the door to the hospital room creaked open. A fashionable young woman, wearing sunglasses and a headscarf, appeared at the doorway with a hint of hesitation. Upon seeing Wang Geng, she rushed over, tightly grasping his hand, her voice trembling as she said, "Thank God! Mr. Wang, it is truly wonderful that you have awakened. If it weren't for you saving Katherine... our entire family was praying for you last night"
Do you now understand my kindness towards you? Why were you so indifferent to me before? The girl, slightly out of breath, with her red lips slightly parted, one hand on her waist, gazed at Wang Geng with her large, enchanting eyes filled with affection. The two were positioned quite close to each other, embodying the essence of intimacy.
This fellow was busy dodging the young lady's gaze, and Kelly had already noticed his embarrassment. Remembering the shameful state he was in when she helped him with Wang Xiaodi in the morning, she felt a bit shy and took a step back, whispering, "You distracted me, and I almost forgot to tell you, Wang Geng, someone was looking for you at the front desk when I came up. I had someone stop her; if you don't want to see her, I can send her away!" "Hmm? Who is looking for me?" Wang Geng thought to himself, why didn't this girl say it earlier? This matter is delaying me, and he couldn't recall who else might be looking for him at that moment.
Peeling off the sugar coating and consuming it, returning the cannonball, yet one must not act rashly towards a pure and innocent beauty like Nurse Kelly. What if it turns out like the story of Miss Aton from Miyamoto Musashi, who went back to her homeland to save peace and her nation? A good girl waiting across the ocean for many years, that would truly be a sin
Hmph! Inconsistent words and actions! I won't argue with you for now; just get rid of that woman as soon as possible!" Saying this, Kelly shot a glance at Wang Geng and walked out.
At this thought, Wang Geng smiled and said, "It would be too unkind to refuse someone who has come to visit out of goodwill. Besides, when I was unconscious yesterday, no one knew when I would regain consciousness. She just wanted to say thank you, but there was no opportunity, right? Let's not keep her waiting; please invite her up quickly!" Kelly pouted, thinking that if she didn't let that woman come up, perhaps that person would persistently come every day, leading to unnecessary complications. It would be better to let her meet Wang Geng for a few words, go through the motions, and then part ways, thus avoiding future troubles.
