Financial freedom starts with the pursuit of a cool female doctor

Chapter 75 I'm already doing my best to pull it apart

A woman like Bai Wei, let alone asking for help, has probably relied on others very few times in her life, let alone asking for help.

Given her independent and self-reliant personality, she will most likely finish all the leftover food by herself without saying a word, since she ate too much staple food earlier.

Moreover, it made me realize that Bai Wei also has a side that cherishes food and avoids waste.

Not bad.

By directly raising the question, I wanted her to start trying to rely on others and ask for help.

Gradually, this iceberg will melt away on its own, revealing the most vulnerable side that she has protected deep within her heart.

Bai Wei silently chewed the broccoli without saying a word.

Zhuo Tong then intensified his offensive.

He leaned forward slightly, placing his hands near the center of the table.

"It seems I was a bit trapped by my own experience and underestimated Dr. Bai's appetite. But I can understand, Dr. Bai has worked hard all day and must be quite hungry."

Zhuo Tong waved to Liang Qiwei:
"Master Liang, could we order a few more dishes?"

"Of course, I just cleared away the dishes; I haven't put away the cooking utensils yet."

"Alright, Dr. Bai, would you like to see what else you'd like to eat?"

Bai Wei swallowed the broccoli she had chewed, then gently shook her head and picked up a cherry tomato with her fork.

"No, I'm full."

"Are you full? But I see you're still eating."

Zhuo Tong blinked, feigning sudden realization:

"Oh~ I see, Dr. Bai is forcing himself to eat because he doesn't want to waste food, right?"

As she spoke, Zhuo Tong used a spoon to divide all the light meals Bai Wei had ordered into two portions and put them on an empty plate.

However, considering that Bai Wei's portion was slightly larger than the other one, it was necessary to take into account the other person's appetite.

"Why didn't you say you couldn't eat sooner, Dr. Bai? Let me help you with some of the food."

Bai Wei lowered her head and said in a muffled voice:
"Thank you."

However, Zhuo Tong had no intention of eating it. Instead, she picked up the plate of boiled shrimp and slowly peeled the shells with her gloves.

"Here, let me peel all the shrimp shells for you, so you can eat them directly. You're welcome."

Bai Wei paused, her hand holding the fork still.

She hadn't expected that the help Zhuo Tong offered was actually helping to peel shrimp.

He had mistakenly thought that the other person had noticed his predicament and wanted to help him with some food.

Doesn't this guy have a lot of girlfriends? How come he seems to have absolutely no emotional intelligence? It doesn't make sense.

Or was it intentional, to get revenge for the time I groped him in the classroom that day?

Ugh, how awful.

Bai Wei frowned slightly as she looked at Zhuo Tong, trying to imply that he was already full.

But the latter was completely absorbed in playing on his phone, a blissful smile on his face, and was utterly oblivious to his hint.

So he could only mutter in a muffled voice:
"Help me eat some..."

"What? What did you just say?"

Zhuo Tong blinked and looked at Bai Wei curiously.

I said, "Help me eat some, I can't eat anymore."

"Hey, you should have said you couldn't eat earlier. Why are you always so quiet? If you have something to say, you should express it. Otherwise, how will anyone know what you're thinking?"

Zhuo Tong moved the plate of food that had been prepared earlier to his face and finished it off in a few bites.

As we all know, this kind of Western food is notoriously expensive and small in portion; you basically have to rely on small bread rolls served before the meal to get a full meal.

The idea is to use large plates, very small portions, ingredients from remote areas, and high prices to make it look high-end.

Plus, I went to the gym this afternoon, so I have a good appetite now. I wasn't full earlier, and I've been itching to eat more.

But he wanted Bai Wei to take the initiative and ask him for help. If she never learned to ask for help, he would have to be a sycophant to win her over.

Slowly guide her to change her mind, make her turn around, like she took the initiative to ask me out for dinner tonight, and learn how to be the one who pursues the man. That's a healthier kind of relationship.

As the saying goes, "It's like climbing a mountain for a man to pursue a woman, but it's like piercing a thin veil for a woman to pursue a man."

As long as she takes the initiative, I can easily boost her favorability.

Why would a multi-millionaire lower themselves to serve as teaching aids?
Bai Wei nodded silently, watching Zhuo Tong finish his meal in no time. It felt like watching a super appetizing mukbang, and she quickly finished her own portion as well.

My anxiety before speaking gradually subsided.

It turns out that even in everyday life, such as something as simple as eating a meal, we can learn to rely on others...

I overheard the intern nurses in my department talking about a topic before:
There are many delicious and tempting foods, such as hot pot, barbecue, and fried chicken, which are often served in large portions.

If you go out to eat alone, you might only eat one thing and feel full, and you won't be able to eat much more, especially if you also order drinks like milk tea.

But if you bring your boyfriend, you can order a variety of dishes, eat a little of each, and leave the rest to your boyfriend who can eat a lot.

This way, you can go on dates to improve your relationship, enjoy a wider variety of delicious food, and avoid wasting food.

This is why many couples who are in a good relationship tend to gain weight over time, a kind of happy obesity.

And having a boyfriend has another advantage: you don't have to do anything alone at night...

Doing laundry, cooking, sweeping, and mopping can all be done by two people, or together.

It sounds like there are quite a few benefits.

Thinking of this, Bai Wei quickly shook her head.

"Why are you thinking such nonsense? You can live a very good life on your own."

"But it's not so bad to be able to rely on others occasionally."

Bai Wei put down her knife and fork, and her eyes softened considerably from their initial coldness.

"Is Dr. Bai really unable to eat anymore this time?"

"Ah."

"Well then, this meal is now complete. Thank you, Dr. Bai, for treating us. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had such a delicious meal."

Zhuo Tong smiled and leaned back in her chair, gently stroking her belly with her hand.

His once meticulously sculpted abdominal muscles bulged slightly, and he took the opportunity to use a basic massage, rubbing them clockwise to aid digestion.

"By the way, Dr. Bai, you must be very busy lately? I heard from other doctors that you have quite a few surgeries to perform recently."

"Yes, the hospital has assigned me to provide assistance."

"help?"

"My job is to guide and demonstrate how to perform the surgery; I am not responsible for anything else."

"Oh, I understand."

I do know a little about Zhuo Tong.

Smaller hospitals may encounter more challenging patients, or they may not have a doctor available to perform the surgery at the moment.

They would ask outstanding doctors from other hospitals to help with the surgery, while the doctors from their own hospital could observe and learn from the experience.

It can also be called a "throwing knife".

In addition to surgery, assistance sometimes includes helping the hospital improve its management and treatment capabilities.

Overall, it can be considered as mutual assistance between hospitals.

For someone like Bai Wei who isn't known for her empathy, it was somewhat unexpected to hear that she was helping other hospitals.

Although it's highly likely that she didn't go voluntarily, but rather it was arranged by the hospital.

"However, I don't plan to help them anymore."

"What?"
