I was surprised to see that greeting the parents could go so smoothly. In my cousin's words, it was frightening by how smooth it was.

If I was on equal terms with the Doctor before, then meeting parents marks the begiyof a complete invasion of each other's lifestyle.
My title went from 'older sister-in-law' to 'younger sister-in-law' to 'teacher's girlfriend' to 'teacher' to 'Gu Wei's wife' in an instant......

Since Gu Wei took me to a party, I would be teased when I go to the hospital. Everytime Dr. Chen Cong saw me, he happily called out "Little sister-in-law ~ Little sister-in-law~". (He was only 20 days older than Gu Wei.) Clearly the Head Nurse called me Xiao Lin before. Suddenly, one day she said, "Gu Wei's girl, bring him ginger and crystal sugar to stew some pears." Comrade Gu Wei, standing at the door of the office, winked atme innocently in his mask.

"Did you catch a cold?"

Chen Cong, who was off duty, walked past me and said, "Love – sickness–"

Unexpectedly, September ushered in a peak period of surgeries, and my test schedule was full. Therefore, two people who could not see each other after falling in love for a year ushered in a period of intensive text messaging.

The  Doctor kept all my nonsense messages. According to his description, his mobile phone is like a variety shop.

"Just now in the third canteen, a foreign student had an unknown object in the fast food he was ordering. So, he spoke in broken Chinese to the chef. The chef was shocked and exploded with a 'So What?!!'"

Doctor, you are operating everyday.... Won't you feel uncomfortable going home to eat meat dishes?"

"It was only after death that so many artist's wealth skyrocketed. After we die.... We can donate organs. In fact, at black market prices, it is worth more than it is now."

I say what doctors always think of. Fortunately, there are not many of those thoughts. And then at something like 3 o'clock in the afternoon, or 7 in the evening, a completely un-relatable time, I would get a call from the Doctor.

The conversation is also vey simple:

"What are you doing?"

"At the advisor's office...."

"......"

Then he hung it uo. It's basically a very short conversation. The Doctor said it would be nice not to see other rather than listen to the voice only.

One day at the end of September, the Doctor called.

"When are you coming home?"

"Why? Aren't you supposed to be on duty for XXX?"

"No, he was going to get married to get engaged on a holiday, bit now he just wants to get married and ask for marriage leave."

"....." Okay then.

I'm on the night shift on the 30th. I start my holiday on the morning of the 1st and go back to work on the 3rd."

"Then I will go home on the 3rd."

"I am the best man on the evening of the 1st."

"....."

So, at noon on October 1st, after picking out a tie for the Doctor in a crowded shopping mall, we packed food and headed for the apartment.

After the meal, he took shower and slept on the bed. I threw his dirty clothes into washing machine, washed a plate of fruits, and went online with his notebook, listening to music and translating while wearing headphones.

As the Doctor had always been silent and I was more focused, I didn't realize that I was am ambushes until I was tackled.

It is false to say that I am not nervous. After all, we aren't really an old married couple. Although I have given him a kiss before, most of them were nice and clean. Now my whole body is buried under him. My brain couldn't help showing off an exclamation mark, a question mark and the ellipsis mark!
