Rock Queen
Noon.
Self-service restaurant.
"Adam, this is worth a rare surgery."
Cristina started spouting nonsense as soon as she arrived.
"You wish."
Adam scoffed.
"I performed the enema and acupuncture; this surgery should have been mine."
Cristina wouldn't let it go.
"But you gave up."
Adam chuckled as he ate, "So don't get your hopes up."
Even if it can't offset the cost of that rare surgery, it should at least offset the favor owed, right?
Cristina revealed her true intentions.
"No."
Adam shook his head again. "I risked being disliked by Dr. Shepherd. Shept to get this, but you just ran away. The look in your eyes didn't seem like you were giving me the surgery."
Little brat, you think you can play negotiation tactics with him?
No matter how crazy you are, I will remain unmoved.
"You're not me, how would you know what my eyes mean?"
Cristina said definitively, "That's exactly what my look meant."
"Hehe."
Adam smiled without saying a word, only giving me a look that said, "No one owes me anything."
Cristina was immediately deflated.
She just wanted to bargain, but Adam wouldn't give her a chance.
She wouldn't want to lose face by simply feigning helplessness.
Of course, the most crucial point is that she can't afford to offend Adam.
I offended a nurse, and I almost tormented her to death.
What if I offend Adam?
She had no doubt that, without Adam saying or doing anything, once the nurse found out, she would torment her even more severely than before.
It's likely that this will be a gang crime.
The thought alone sends chills down my spine.
Women understand women better.
It seems I'll have to repay that rare surgery and that favor slowly in the future.
"Adam".
Meredith approached, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.
"Don't worry, the surgery was a success."
Adam gave her the answer she wanted to know directly.
Meredith nodded, fell silent, and began to withdraw into herself.
With things having escalated to this point, there was no way to keep it a secret any longer; the news had already spread throughout the entire hospital.
Many men looked at her with a mixture of nervousness and excitement.
Emmmm.
You read that right!
I'm just excited.
George and Liz then came over with their trays.
Liz had that sly smile that only a true best friend would have.
George, on the other hand, had a dark expression.
His goddess Meredith has once again been the subject of this kind of gossip.
This caused him great distress.
Moreover, thinking back to his brief intimate encounter with Meredith, he hadn't felt anything so wild, and Meredith was crying the whole time.
George's heart ached even more.
"What?"
Meredith couldn't take it anymore when faced with Liz's unrestrained, smirking smile and her aloof, expressionless face.
"Nothing."
Liz simply shook her head.
Meredith could only roll his eyes.
Hehehe.
The chubby Stu also chuckled and came closer, a rare occurrence for him.
What are you doing here?
Cristina and Liz both shouted in disdain.
Both are fair-skinned and chubby, George is their best friend.
But Stu is the most disgusting fatso.
Nothing more!
Stu is really too despicable.
They all knew why he wanted to go to the Plastic Surgery Department in the future.
If word gets out, the reputation of the Plastic Surgery Department will be completely ruined.
"Don't do that."
The chubby Stu said in a humble and ingratiating tone, "We're all colleagues~"
"..."
Cristina and Liz were immediately speechless.
The fatso has already humbled himself like this; it would be really too much for them to say anything more.
Adam shook his head inwardly.
When a person is shameless enough, they become invincible.
"Hi, Meredith ~"
Seeing that Cristina and Liz were starting to ignore him, the chubby Stu smiled smugly and turned his attention to the person he was truly interested in.
Adam, Cristina, and Liz exchanged a glance, then leaned back in unison, ready to watch the show.
George retorted angrily, "Just say what you want to say, don't use such a disgusting tone!"
"What?"
Meredith said irritably.
Even Experienced Women like her couldn't stand the lewdness of the chubby white man, Stu.
"Fine."
Stu, the chubby Stu, chuckled and said, "Just came over to say hello. Are you free tonight? I'll treat you to a drink at Joe's Bar!"
"..."
Everyone was stunned when these words were spoken.
Everyone knew that the chubby Stu was despicable and shameless, but at this moment, they all felt that they had underestimated this fat guy.
It's worth noting that Steven, who had just undergone surgery, had also been drinking with Meredith at Joe's Bar the night before.
At a time when such explosive gossip about Meredith is circulating, the chubby Stu extending this invitation is practically a blatant message to Meredith: "Don't think you can pamper me just because I'm a delicate flower~"
This kind of aggressive, venomous energy.
This is absolutely unbelievable!
Meredith, looking both embarrassed and angry, stood up abruptly, wanting to lash out, but when she met the 'honest and simple' face of the chubby white Stu, and noticed the stares from all around, she picked up her half-eaten plate and left.
"Shameless!"
"Nausea!"
Cristina and Liz also felt nauseous and simply picked up their plates and left.
"You!"
George clenched his fists, looking like he wanted to punch someone, but in the end he didn't and picked up his plate and left.
"What?"
The chubby Stu looked somewhat aggrieved.
"Alright, you've disgusted everyone and driven them away. That's enough."
Adam complained.
They are in a group and are closer.
Moreover, the sleazy Stu is quite amusing.
Furthermore, the chubby Stu is quite perceptive; he doesn't just fawn over anyone.
Therefore, Adam's relationship with him was acceptable.
Hehehe.
The chubby Stu immediately dropped his aggrieved look, lowered his voice, and chuckled, "Adam, do you know that Meredith already has a nickname?"
"What nickname?"
Adam had a sudden thought.
This nickname is definitely not a good one... but he's actually quite interested in it.
"Now many male colleagues privately call Meredith..."
The chubby Stu made faces and said a whole bunch of things.
Adam heard a beeping sound.
However, judging from Stu's lip movements and expressions, his complex English summary can be translated as "The Rock Queen is shaking my heart..."
Adam's lips twitched.
These seven short words, upon closer examination, are indeed quite profound.
"Many men are feeling both nervous and excited right now."
The words that had been uttered by the chubby Stu finally came out from the beeping.
"If that's the case, then you still dare to ask out the Rock Queen Meredith?"
Adam teased, "Aren't you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid!"
The chubby Stu proudly puffed out his chest. "I have a low center of gravity, what am I afraid of?"
"..."
Adam's lips twitched, speechless.
This time, even he was stunned by the lewd and slutty demeanor of the chubby white Stu, Stu.
Faced with such a frank and honest Stu of his shortcomings, even Hong Shixian, upon arriving, could only admit defeat and relay the same words he had spoken to Ellie to the chubby Stu.
"Stu".
"What's wrong?"
"You should be more careful in the future."
Adam couldn't help but remind him, "Someone like you can only live in the world of anime. In the real world, if you keep acting this way, you'll get beaten to death sooner or later."
