Ni Nian is an English major and academic ace at B University, with Japanese as her second foreign language. Since her junior year, she has been an assistant at a renowned translation company. This time, she is temporarily assigned as the accompanying interpreter for the municipal hospital delegation at the B City International Medical Summit.
Medical terminology is obscure and hard to understand? No problem. She stays up all night poring over three thick dictionaries. The surgical procedures are complicated? She can interpret while sketching adorable little doctors.
She just never expected Dr. Shen Yanchuan, the man rumored to be “the dream of nine hundred million girls,” to make her heart race more than any case file ever could.
Gold-rimmed glasses, a white coat, and a voice that is always calm and unhurried. When she can’t make sense of surgical documents, he offers her a mint. When the cafeteria lady gives her a hard time, he quietly steps in to help. And when she tries to act calm, he gently says, “It’s okay to be scared.”
Ni Nian thinks she’s just hopelessly attracted to his voice, and that a couple more glances will be the end of it. But Dr. Shen keeps appearing whenever she needs him most
“If you don’t understand, you can ask me.”
“There’s no one else here.”
When the cool freshness of mints meets the sweetness of milk candy, in a romance that begins with their work bringing them together, which of them will be the first to lose their composure?
Sly, reserved surgeon × bubbly, chatty academic ace and interpreter
