After roving in Country S and Tbridge City for a long time, they felt like going home when they returned to Ice city.
Life was back to normal. Simon had to go back to the hospital to work. Emily also contacted the editor-in-chief that she could choose a day to start to work on the TV station. But before that, they drove to the town to visit her aunt and uncle.
Anthea, who was supposed to go home to visit her parents during the holiday, gave up the idea of driving herself and shared a car with them.
Although nobody was willing to be the third wheel, at least it would not be lonely for three people in a car, because they could chat throughout the journey.
When Emily saw Anthea's haggard face, she handed her a bottle of water out of concern. 'Anthea, were you on the night shift last night? You have very heavy dark circles under your eyes. You can sleep for a while!"
"I'm fine. I'm used to it!" Anthea swung her ponytail, opened the lid, and drank two mouthfuls of water. Then she smacked her lips and said, "But if I had another chance to make a choice, I wouldn't choose to be a doctor!"
Upon hearing this, Emily had some doubts.
Her intuition showed that even if Anthea could make another choice, she would definitely choose to be a doctor because Anthea said before that she chose to be a doctor in order to be closer to someone...
Anthea put down the mineral water bottle. "The work in the hospital is toilsome. Especially the surgeon women are forced to work like men, and surgeon men worked ceaselessly like animals. Isn't that right, Dr. Chin?"
"Mn." Simon agreed.
Even so, they still loved this job.
The light in his eyes flickered. Simon looked up at the rear car mirror and suddenly said, "Dr. Lee, thank you!"
Upon hearing this, Anthea immediately understood what he was referring to. The idea that he was misdiagnosed before came from Adam, and she worked on it...
Well, it could be said that she selflessly helped him in silence!
So she didn't feel ashamed of his thanks. Thinking of this, Anthea raised her eyebrows meaningfully and said, "You're welcome."
Seeing the two chatting something strange, Emily, who was sitting next to Simon, was confused. She looked at him in confusion and asked, "Simon, why do you say thanks to her? Did Anthea help you with anything?"
Simon said lazily, "Nothing."
Emily frowned and it seemed that she didn't really believe it.
Anthea, who was in the back, interrupted. "Oh, it's about a patient. I helped him perform a small operation!"
"Oh!" Emily nodded.
They stopped at the rest station halfway. Emily and Anthea went to the bathroom together.
Because Simon was in the car just now, it was inconvenient for Emily to say something. Emily turned on the tap and asked while washing her hands, "Anthea, your previous boyfriend?"
"We've broken up!" Anthea shrugged. "Not long after you went to Tbridge City, we broke up!"
Emily did not look very surprised. Simon mentioned it in front of her before. Moreover, when Simon was calling his eldest brother before, he heard Anthea's voice on the phone, which proved the relationship between Anthea and Adam.
She was concerned about her and curious about it at the same time. "So what about you and Adam..."
Hearing this, Anthea heaved a long sigh and shook her head with a somewhat lost look. "I don't know either. Maybe we can be regarded as lovers. But Emily, to tell you the truth, I'm not sure about our future..."
Emily frowned and didn't know what to say.
At noon that day, the Cayenne drove into the town. After sending Anthea home first, they went to her aunt's house.
Simon said lazily," I just declare my ownership of you!"
Emily rolled her eyes silently.
The family sat together and finished their lunch. Emily had stayed in Tbridge City for three months, so she hadn't seen her parents for a long time. Since they returned to the town, she intended to go to the mountain to sweep tombs with Simon in the afternoon.
Speaking of this, Simon's amorous eyes narrowed slightly as he leaned close to her ear. He said gloomily, "You didn't take him to see your parents, did you?"
Who?
When Emily saw his sullen face, she realized that he was referring to Calvin.
He ever made trouble when she met the Desmond Family before. Later, Calvin came to the town once with her. Now, seeing him defend his ownership, Emily shook her head helplessly. "No!"
"Mn." Upon hearing this, Simon's mood was extremely good.
Her uncle drank a lot of wine and was already drunk when he left the table, so her aunt stayed at home to
take care of her uncle and prepare dinner. Only Simon and Emily went to the mountain.
During lunch, Simon accompanied her uncle to drink a lot, so he didn't drive but took a taxi in the afternoon.
After sweeping the tombs for her parents, they took a walk around the area.
When the sun was setting, they walked hand in hand back to the residential district. Their figures cast shadows on the ground, which looked very warm and sweet.
When they walked downstairs, they stopped for a while. A military jeep had been waiting there for a long time. Then the door opened, and a strong figure wearing a pair of military boots jumped down, with a cigarette in his hand.
