Chapter 144 - Sniffing The Fiery Red Roses.
So as Chen Lihua came into the hospital, she received a call from Liu Dongmei. She didn't even get to hear her voice before three different lively voices invaded the phone.
The little girls were literally screaming as they thanked Chen Lihua.
Their voices alone made a beautiful smile appear on Chen Lihua's face. But that smile didn't go by just like that as that smile was captured in a shot unknowingly to both parties.
Chen Lihua had her white coat on her arm, and her shoulder bag on the same hand. A phone placed on her ear, a smile on her face.
Then her dressing nailed it. She wore a long rainbow coloured shirt that was free on her body, a tight black trouser, and a pair of white Nike sneakers.
From her outfit, I think Mr Liu has a good taste when it comes to selecting clothes for his wife.
So as she walked by with that smile on her face and with a feet forward, the picture was taken. Then she continued walking away with that beautiful smile on her face.
"Heh! Am leaving you behind". A middle aged female nurse said.
"Oh! Am coming". A teenage boy answered hurriedly.
Then he took his phone from the person standing in front of him slipped it into his trousers pocket without looking at it, while showing appreciation for the pictures before leaving with the nurse in a hurry.
Done with the call, Chen Lihua went into the meeting room for the morning meeting scheduled for her.
The meeting held was all about the patient that will receive a heart transplant in the next two months.
You know planning for things before time is the best way to escape emergencies or any contingencies. And it will help everyone involved (The doctors, nurses and patients) to be relaxed before that day. Like the idiom 'Make hay while the sun shines'.
During her free time, Chen Lihua sent an email to Liu Longwei.
When the time to get off work came and Chen Lihua still hasn't received any calls yet for her car, she decided to call her husband.
The call was received on the first ring, as he has been waiting for her call.
"Hello, where's my car? Am about to get off work". Chen Lihua said.
"Come to the Underground parking lot in ten minutes time". Liu Longwei said as he terminated the call.
At first, Chen Lihua thought that he forgot to notify about the car arrangements. So that was the reason she called him, but only to be surprised by him. She started wondering when Liu Longwei became so slow in making simple arrangements, or maybe it slipped his mind.
Chen Lihua sighed as she looked at the already blank screen. Then she sighed again and unscrewed a bottle of water before drinking from it.
When ten minutes was up, she took her properties with her and went to the underground parking lot.
If not for the bodyguard who called out to her, she would have continued looking around for her car.
So the bodyguard guided her back to the car that dropped her off at work that morning.
Before she could say anything, the bodyguard had already opened the car door for her. So she could only keep the words to herself.
As she sat without paying attention, she was greeted by a smiling face.
Liu Longwei had a smile on his handsome face. Then with a hand on his jaw, he stared at Chen Lihua and said with his deep voice, as he Presented her with fiery red roses "Hello beautiful, permit me to take you out on a date".
Chen Lihua was speechless for a while. But then that smile, and sexy look he had on as he handed the flowers to her, actually made a smile appear on her face.
So with a smile on her face, and with her dimples on display, she took the flowers from his face and sniffed them.
Taking the flowers from him without saying anything was also a way to show that she accepted his proposal.
'Katcha' that was the sound of the camera shutter. As Chen Lihua raised her smiling face to see, Liu Longwei slipped his phone into his pocket and explained with a smile, "I wanted to capture the beautiful moment on camera".
Chen Lihua didn't say anything, but left behind a smile. So Liu Longwei quickly gave her a peck on her cheek before commanding the driver to drive off.
Liu Longwei took her to a steak house.
As they sat on their reserved table, their steak was served immediately with a bottle of red wine. Then the wine was popped open and the contents poured into their wine glasses.
As the waiters left, Liu Longwei toasted with Chen Lihua, and the each drank from their respective glasses.
While they ate their steak, Liu Longwei asked, "Hope you haven't forgotten that you owe me a meal. You promised to cook for me, so when will I be honoured to try your cooking?".
Chen Lihua took a sip from her wine before answering with a smile, "I haven't forgotten about it. I will cook for you very soon. How about the weekend I take leave from the hospital".
"I'll be anticipating then. While taking a leave from the hospital, take a month and two weeks leave. If you have trouble asking for one, then I'll help you". Liu Longwei said as he wiped his lips with the serviette.
"Don't worry, I can ask for leave myself. But why does it have to be that long?" Chen Lihua asked confusedly.
Liu Longwei stared at her for a while, but then smiled suddenly and answered, "We have to travel somewhere for our honeymoon, so I can have the 'alone time' to know you better".
And as he said so, his gaze roamed around her body.
Chen Lihua saw his eyes movements and knew he was teasing her. But she laughed over it and asked for them to go home since they were done with their food and drinks.
