Chapter 1278 Do We Know Each Other (Part Two)


    "How dare you say it''s nonsense! Don''t you know that anything is possible in this big world?" Patricia


    held her head high and her tone was proud. She didn''t want to admit that she was being a bit dramatic


    and old-fashioned right now. She was really freaked out being stuck in the mortuary and that was that.


    "Well, I am sure that it doesn''t include ghosts being real. Everything you ever encounter that makes


    you believe that ghosts are real is just a phenomenon of nature. That''s all. You should believe in


    science. By the way, your name is Patricia, right? Come on! I will take you to Leena''s room." Tom


    shook his head at her again. To be honest, he didn''t understand how Leena was friends with this girl.


    She was too chatty and too vivacious for his liking. Tom could tell that she was not the gentle and


    caring type of girl at all.


    "Thank you! What''s your name by the way? Are you the Tom that Leena mentioned before? The


    almighty doctor?" Patricia looked at Tom in surprise. He was a doctor, and he was also Leena''s friend.


    Maybe she was right. This man in front of her was Tom indeed.


    "Yes. My name is Tom Qin. You can call me Doctor Qin. How about you? What''s your family name?"


    Tom''s tone was polite but distant. One could tell from his self introduction that he didn''t want anything


    to do with Patricia.


    "I''m Patricia Bai. Why? You don''t trust me? That''s why you asked for my full name." Patricia couldn''t


    help but press her lips together in a tight line in annoyance as she followed Tom. He was so obvious! It


    looked like she wanted something to do with him. Well, yes, she did when she first met him. But not


    now. She had lost interest in him as soon as she found out that he was a doctor.


    "That''s not what I meant, Miss Bai. Please don''t think too much. I just think that we are not close

    enough to call each other by our first names. That''s why I wanted to know your family name." Tom was


    always like this. He acted distant and polite to the ones he wasn''t familiar with. He liked to keep his


    distance. It was as if he didn''t want to make new friends.


    "Fine. Whatever." Patricia was disappointed. She just found out the man she had a big crush on for


    days was a doctor. To be honest, this was enough for her to give up her original n. Now, Tom''s


    attitude was like cold water to a dying fire. Well, she was right. There was no way she was going to be


    together with a doctor. And she didn''t regret it at all.


    "I remember that I promised you a meal. Don''t worry, I won''t break my promise. Once Leena wakes up,


    I will surely take you out for dinner." Tom suddenly said these words out of nowhere. And this made


    Patricia fully give up on the idea of getting to know him, let alone being with him.


    "You don''t have to. I am not that pathetic. So you don''t have to worry about it, really, Doctor Qin.


    Besides, please don''t think that everyone who approaches you wants something from you. Well, I admit


    that I was charmed by your appearance at first sight. But it doesn''t mean that I will pester you


    endlessly, especially after I know now that you are a doctor. Don''t worry, I don''t want to chase you after


    all. So you don''t have to intentionally keep your distance from me or be this careful around me. What a


    turn off!"


    Patricia smirked coldly at Tom. She always hated men who were so full of themselves and thought that


    every woman who approached them was interested in them. She admitted that she was indeed


    interested in Tom at first. But it didn''t mean that she was willing to endure Tom''s conceited attitude. He


    was straightforward and obvious. So she didn''t have to embarrass herself anymore. She would dly


    leave Tom alone.


    "Miss Bai, what are you talking about? You misunderstood me. Well, that''s all right. It doesn''t matter. I


    don''t have to exin to you anyway." Tom just shrugged. He didn''t really care what Patricia thought. He


    just led her into Leena''s room.


    "Auntie, how is Leena? Is she showing any signs that she is waking up soon?" Tom had a very good


    impression of Shannon, for she was different from all the other richdies he had met before. She was


    not arrogant at all. She was kind and polite, and she treated Leena like her own daughter, and that was


    the most important thing to Tom.


    "No, she isn''t and I am worried sick. Oh, Doctor Qin, is this your girlfriend?" Shannon noticed Patricia,


    who was standing beside Tom. She thought that the pair looked good together.


    "Oh. No, she is not my girlfriend. She is here to visit Leena. I just ran into her at the mortuary, that''s all."


    Tom shot down her implication in a hurry. One would think that he really hated the idea of him and


    Patricia together based on his behavior.


    "Ma''am, nice to meet you. I am Patricia Bai, Leena''s friend. You can call me Patricia. He was right. I am


    not his girlfriend now. Well, he left me for some other woman." Patricia raised one of her eyebrows as a


    challenge. Well, if he really wanted to get rid of her so bad, she would never easily give him the


    satisfaction. She was still a bit angry over the conversation she had with Tom just earlier.


    "Umm... What..." Shannon nced from Patricia to Tom. She was suddenly at a loss for words after


    hearing what Patricia just said.


    "Nonsense! Don''t listen to her. Well, aren''t you here for Leena, Miss Bai? Now that I have brought you


    here, I should leave. I still have some work to do." Tom didn''t care about Patricia lying about their


    rtionship. Well, she wasn''t even his girlfriend. No matter what she lied about, it still wouldn''t be


    true. He was confident that Shannon could see through Patricia''s lie.


    "Then just leave. I''m used to you being cold anyway." Patricia made it sound like she really had a past


    with Tom. Shannon was totally confused right now. What was happening? Were they ex-lovers or not?


    "Miss Bai, please mind your words. We were not lovers before, and we won''t be lovers in the future. So


    please stop lying and making others believe that we have a past. You may think it''s funny but it''s in fact


    very disturbing," Tom said in a very serious tone, staring intensely at Patricia with serious eyes. Then


    he turned around and left the room without looking back.


    "Are you two in a fight? That''s all right. That''s what lovers do. Just give it time. You can make up when


    both of you calm down," Shannonforted Patricia with a worried tone. It seemed that she had


    bought Patricia''s story and actions, thinking that they were really a couple.


    "Thank you, ma''am. Well, how''s Leena? She has been like this the whole time? Hasn''t she woken up


    even once?" Patricia didn''t exin to Shannon about the rtionship between Tom and her. Instead,


    she changed the topic and asked about her best friend. She walked to the side of the hospital bed and


    held Leena''s hand in her hands. Had she known that this horrible ident would happen to Leena, she


    wouldn''t have been angry at her at all. Now, she deeply regretted having a fight with Leena. Because


    no matter what she said or how she tried, Leena would not reply to her now.
