I Grant It
"Cristina."
Meredith, realizing what was happening, quickly chased after her best friend.
Does she realize that her actions will hurt her best friend's feelings?
Of course I know.
But she couldn't control herself.
Because this is a surgeon's instinct on the field.
"The surgeon's God Complex."
The old nurse shook her head repeatedly.
She had seen far too many surgeons exhibiting this kind of inexplicable self-confidence, competitiveness, and the belief that they were God and could save the world.
"Some surgeons really are like God."
The pretty young nurse watched Adam leave and murmured to herself.
"Olivia, stop looking like that."
The experienced nurse cautioned, "Dr. Duncan is too good for you."
"I don't..."
"Pretty little nurse Olivia blushed."
There is no best.
The old nurse smiled and turned to get busy.
The young nurse Olivia, murmured dreamily, "I know Dr. Duncan is exceptional, and I didn't intend to do anything..."
early morning.
48 hours.
"It's finally over."
"Bald Chris cheered."
Are there any activities later?
The chubby white guy Stu, winked and made faces, looking rather lewd.
"Dude."
Bald Chris put his arm around chubby Stu: "Of course there are events. I've made plans with Carla. You can do whatever you want."
After saying that, he sang and danced away triumphantly.
"What's so great about it?"
The chubby Stu pouted and said, "I still have oranges."
"Orange?"
Adam's lips twitched. "Are you serious?"
"Of course I'm serious."
The chubby Stu said in a lewd tone, "Oranges are the best of all fruits. Let me tell you a little trick: heat them in the microwave, and the effect will be amazing."
"..."
Adam was speechless. "That kind of trick won't work on me. Whatever makes you happy."
Staying home so much can really make you happy.
There's no limit to how despicable it can be!
Adam accepted it.
After changing clothes in the changing room.
Adam and Bianca walked out of the hospital.
"Dr. Duncan."
A strange cry came from behind.
Adam turned around and saw that the pretty nurse had changed back into her everyday clothes and was looking at him charmingly.
"My name is Olivia, I..."
"Hello, Olivia, just call me Adam."
Adam smiled brightly.
Bianca pursed her lips beside her.
"Adam".
The young nurse Olivia, was very excited and mustered up her courage to say, "I know a coffee shop that has really good coffee. Would you like to go for a cup together?"
"We just finished our first 48-hour shift, let's do it next time."
Adam politely declined.
"Oh, I'm sorry."
The nurse Olivia, said with shame, "I forgot."
She said a few more words and then walked away quickly.
"You don't actually think she's asking you out for coffee, do you?"
Bianca complained.
"I know."
Adam laughed and said, "But I don't have those feelings for her."
"Really?"
Bianca exclaimed in surprise, "She's quite pretty, and she's so proactive. Aren't you tempted at all?"
Not tempted at all.
Adam shook his head and said, "In fact, I don't have close contact with my colleagues in the hospital, and I suggest you do the same."
"Why?"
Bianca was puzzled.
Adam briefly mentioned the deep malice that American TV show writers harbored towards medical workers, which immediately stunned Bianca.
"Really? Is it that chaotic?"
"You saw it too."
Adam laughed and said, "Chris had only known that Carla for less than a day when he took off his pants in the duty room."
Medical staff have a high workload, so it's not easy for them to find partners. Even if they do find someone, their rest times sometimes don't match.
When hormones surge, if you and a colleague hit it off, find a place to secretly have some mutual support—don't be too casual.
If everyone acts so casually, it's easy to fall victim to a disease.
So, just in case, no matter how beautiful my colleagues at the hospital are, I won't be tempted at all.
"All your colleagues? Are you sure?"
Bianca's eyes looked a little strange.
"Cough cough."
Adam coughed lightly and added somewhat awkwardly, "Of course, those who are chaste and self-disciplined are not included."
Where is your car?
Bianca laughed and said, "Hurry up and drive."
Next to the hospital.
Adam's upscale apartment.
Two hours later.
"I'm coming."
Adam hung up the phone, glanced at Bianca, who was fast asleep with a smile on her face, smiled, wrote a line on a piece of paper, placed it on the bedside table, put on his clothes, and left the apartment.
Even after working for 48+2 hours straight, he was still full of energy.
MacLaren's Pub.
"Oh, great, Adam, you're finally here! Quick, talk to Marshall!"
Barney nervously gripped Adam's arm, looking like Marshall was in big trouble.
"What's wrong?"
Adam ignored him, calmly sat down, gestured to the bartender for a beer, and then smiled at Marshall and Lily across from him.
Look at this!
Marshall and Lily embraced sweetly, and at the same time, Matthew extended his left hand, revealing a pair of diamond rings on his middle finger.
Congratulations on your engagement!
After a moment of surprise, Adam immediately offered his congratulations.
"Thanks."
Marshall and Lily spoke in unison, exchanged a glance, and then, in front of everyone, began to kiss passionately.
Adam grinned.
He still finds it somewhat difficult to adapt to this Western custom of public displays of affection.
"Enough, enough!"
Barney, rubbing his arm and exclaiming with goosebumps, "Adam, why don't you try to talk them out? They're only in their twenties."
"So?"
Adam laughed.
"Don't talk about marriage after thirty, that's an ironclad rule!"
Barney shouted.
"Whose ironclad rule?"
Adam retorted, "Oh, wait, I know, it's Barney Stinson's ironclad rule!"
"Barney Stinson's Iron Law is the iron law that all men should abide by!"
Barney tightened his tie and said confidently.
"Did you ask the Crown?"
Adam pulled a crown out of his pocket, playing with it as he quipped.
"..."
Barney's smile froze.
This was the crown he had lost to Adam before; he never expected that Adam would carry it with him.
"Haha, he didn't ask."
Marshall and Lily parted ways, and he laughed heartily, "Only the one with the crown is the king, representing all men, and his words are the ironclad rules that all men should abide by."
"Let me ask."
With eyes full of blessings, Ted chimed in, "Your Majesty, would you approve Marshall's engagement before he turns thirty?"
"As long as you are an adult, love knows no age limit."
Adam placed the crown on his head and solemnly declared, "Marshall and Lily are truly in love, I grant it!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Marshall and Lily egged them on.
"Come on!"
Barney exclaimed helplessly.
His legendary bet against Adam last time brought him both pain and pleasure.
The pain, of course, needs no further explanation.
Not only was he completely crushed by Adam in 0:30 and forced to admit defeat in front of everyone, but after holding it in for a whole month, when he went to relax afterwards, he was subjected to unprecedented humiliation, facing acquaintances who had worked to earn money for their education and treated him like a philanthropist...
Happiness, on the other hand, was exactly what suited him best in this bet.
Therefore, he had complex feelings towards Adam.
She wanted to get close to him and share a legendary life, but she didn't dare to act like she did with Ted, regardless of Ted's feelings, and was a bit reserved.
