Chapter 1090: Iceberg Doctor 39

Five or six minutes later, Li Sitong returned with two dinner plates. The food was light and mostly vegetarian, with a bowl of porridge.

“Alright, eat,” he said.

He glanced at Dr. Zhou sitting opposite them. After a brief pause, he calmly moved and sat down beside him instead.

Dr. Zhou immediately understood the signal, picked up his tray, and stood up. “I’m full already. I’ll head off first—you two take your time.”

He left quickly, very self-aware.

Li Sitong then shifted slightly and sat directly across from Tang Wan.

When Tang Wan saw this, the corners of her lips curved up instantly, her happiness completely unconcealed. That bright, lively expression made Li Sitong pause for a moment.

For some reason, he found it particularly pleasing to look at.

She looked… genuinely happy.

Around them, several doctors and nurses had already started glancing over and whispering.

“I heard that’s Doctor Li’s girlfriend—she’s so pretty!”

“No wonder he doesn’t date anyone in the hospital. His standards are way too high. She looks like a celebrity.”

“The usually cold Doctor Li actually has a girlfriend? And he’s so gentle…”

Because the cafeteria was relatively quiet, the murmurs carried over clearly.

Tang Wan’s chopsticks paused slightly. She slowly raised her head and looked at Li Sitong with an embarrassed expression. Her ears were visibly red.

“Doctor Li… they misunderstood our relationship,” she said softly.

Li Sitong didn’t even look up. “It’s fine. I don’t mind. Let them talk.”

“Oh…” Tang Wan lowered her head again, looking slightly disappointed.

Seeing this, Li Sitong’s gaze darkened slightly.

She cares about this?

A faint idea formed in his mind.

Then he casually picked up some food and placed it into her bowl. “Eat properly. Go back and rest after this.”

Tang Wan immediately brightened again. “Mm!”

Around them, the whispers became even louder.

“Did you see that? Doctor Li actually picked food for her!”

“So gentle…”

“I didn’t expect him to be like this in a relationship…”

Tang Wan’s ears turned even redder under the attention. She lowered her head quickly, pretending to focus on eating.

At that moment, Little Cutie sighed in her mind. “Host… your acting is getting more and more natural.”

Tang Wan snorted lightly. “This is called professional self-cultivation. You wouldn’t understand.”

As she continued eating, she deliberately kept her head down, maintaining a slightly shy and awkward posture.

Li Sitong glanced at her and couldn’t help but let out a soft chuckle.

“If you keep your head down like that,” he said lightly, “your face is going to fall into the bowl.”
