Chapter 1381 Kung Fu Boy (Part Three)
"Don''t worry. Take it easy. You''re gonna be okay sooner orter. What about the scars on your face?
Did Tom say something about it?" Leena looked at the dried up wounds on Patricia''s face. Though the
wounds were not very deep, they would leave permanent scars if they were not properly treated. She
wondered why Tom hadn''t applied the special scar eliminating gel on her face. Was that jerk doing it on
purpose, still hating on Patricia?
"Do you think I''m ugly with the scars?" Patricia asked, stroking the scars on her face.
"No, I don''t. But they remind me of that ident," Leena said honestly. She regretted having asked
Patricia the question. After all, Patricia was a woman, and it was a huge deal for women when it came
to anything about their looks.
"Ha! Don''t worry about me. I believe I look cool with the scars," Patricia said with a smile. She lived

very freely, refusing to give in to the pressure of modern society on women when it came to beauty.
"Good girl! You are so cool that no men dare to get close to you." Leena rolled her eyes at Patricia. She
had never seen a woman who didn''t care about her face at all.
"Hey, woman! Was that a back handedpliment? Does Major General Gu know you are actually a
mean woman?" Patricia retorted at once.
"Really? I''m a mean woman?" Leena asked in reply while casting Patricia a reproachful nce. ''I''m not
mean at all. I was telling the truth. Does she really think that it''s cool to have scars on her face?'' she
thought to herself.
The two spent a few more hours catching up until it was time for Leena to leave. After bidding goodbye
to Patricia, Leena went straight to Tom''s office. She pushed the door open without knocking, in attempt
to surprise him. But to her disappointment, Tom was not in his office. She entered the room, looked
around and sat casually on the sofa. He must be making the rounds of the wards, so she decided to
wait for him. She picked up a magazine to keep herself busy.
But she didn''t expect herself to wait for such a long time that she fell asleep on the sofa. When Tom
came back and saw Leena asleep, he signaled his colleague to keep quiet. Then they left the room and
Tom closed the door quietly behind him. They went to a balcony on the third floor of the hospital
together.
"Hey, you can tell me now. What do you want to say?" Tom put his hands on the railing, and instead of
staring at his colleague, he looked into the distance.
"Mr. Qin, shall we make a new rehabilitation n for Miss Bai? I don''t think the current program is
working well," said the doctor with utmost care, not to upset Tom.
"You are the doctor in charge of her rehabilitation. If you think that it is time to change the program, you
have every right to make a new one. You may use any n that you think is proper. No need to ask me
for approval," Tom said with a frown. He usually got more excited whenever Patricia was involved.
"Uhh..." Tom''s reply came as a shock to the doctor, and he didn''t know how to respond. ''Isn''t Miss Bai
special to him? If she isn''t, then why has he attached great importance to her rehabilitation progress?
Maybe my assumptions were wrong?'' he asked himself.
"Is there anything else? You may take your leave if there isn''t," Tom said impatiently. Tom was a gentle
person, but recently, he had been quick to lose his temper. As a result, all the employees in the hospital
had to double check their work with utmost care for fear that they could be the target of Tom''s tantrum.
"No, there''s nothing else. I''m leaving now." The doctor left immediately as he couldn''t stand being
around Tom. Having to interact with him had gotten too stressful.
Tom went back to his office and pushed the door gently, trying not to wake Leena up. ''Shouldn''t she be
in Paris right now? What is she doing here?'' he wondered.
Tom sighed with resignation and was about to take out a nket. Luckily, the air conditioner was on,
otherwise Leena might catch a cold here.
Leena was usually a light sleeper. When she sensed that Tom entered the room, she opened her eyes
slowly and stared nkly at him.
"Hey, Leena. Did you know that you fell asleep here in my office? Here, take a ss of water." Tom
poured a ss of warm water and handed it to her. He could tell from her dry lips that she needed to
drink something.
"I was here waiting for you, and somehow I drifted off. It was so warm here that I felt drowsy," Leena
exined with an awkward smile. But actually, it was because she hade directly to the hospital
without taking a rest first and she had been so sleepy. She had juste from Paris today.
"Have you been waiting long? Why didn''t you call me?" Tomined. He sat on the sofa beside her
and smoothed her messy hair. Leena had always wanted to crop her hair short, for she didn''t want to
do her hair every day. The daily upkeep of having long hair was sometimes more than she could
a princess with curly long hair.
"I thought you would be back any minute, so I didn''t call you." Leena made a face and stuck out her
tongue at Tom. If she had known that it would take him so long, she would have called him right at the
very beginning.
"When did youe back from Paris? This morning?" Tom asked and wondered how Leena had the
patience to wait for him for such a long time. Was there something important she wanted to talk to him?
It had gotten to be that.
"Yes, I arrived this morning. Edward picked me and Justin up and drove me home. Then I came here to
visit Patricia and you. I nned to go back home and really have a good rest after this, but I didn''t
expect myself to fall asleep quickly. I guess I was that tired." Leena smiled shyly like an innocent girl.
"So you''ve seen Miss Bai?" Tom asked. He didn''t look at Leena in the eye as if it were a casual
question, but his heart began to beat faster just by saying that name.
"Yes, I''ve seen Patricia. And I want to discuss something with you about her," Leena said honestly. She
failed to notice the strange expression that suddenly appeared on Tom''s face.
