Although Li Shaobin had never been optimistic about the pair, after observing them on this journey, he seemed to have noticed that they were partly just trying to annoy the other party. Hence, he asked softly, “Old Song, you’re not going back?”
“Do you think I have the cheek to face anyone after getting bitten like this?” Song Chuyi’s unsightly expression coupled with the band-aid on his mouth looked somehow comical.
Even at that moment, Changqing was afraid to look him in the eye. She was afraid she would laugh.
“That’s true.” Li Shaobin nodded. After stopping the car, he quickly went down to help Changqing with her luggage. When Changqing was getting out of the car, she looked at him and seeing how he turned his face away expressionlessly, she rushed out with frustration. Li Shaobin happened to be pushing the luggage over and Changqing pulled it over with might. She vented her anger out on him: “I don’t need you; I’ll do it myself.”
“Don’t, don’t, don’t.” Li Shaobin rushed up quickly to help her and said in a low tone, “I’ve known Old Song for so long and I’ve rarely seen him blow his top like today. He definitely cares about you and he’s only jealous. You have to give Old Song some face too. All men need face.”
“He can’t be jealous.” Changqing vented all her frustration just like that. “He even hit on a beautiful woman affectionately and forgot he has a wife.”
After she finished, she snorted and glared at Li Shaobin who was in a daze and shut the metal gate hard.
Li Shaobin got reprimanded and said resentfully, “Old Song asked me to pick up the dog?”
“Tell him that I’m going to have dog meat stew tonight. Don’t even think of taking him back,” Changqing’s angry voice replied.
Li Shaobin returned to the car and said with a grumble, “Old Song, did you really chat affectionately with a beautiful woman on the plane? You’re too immoral. You were in the wrong, yet you still pushed the blame onto others and made me hit Fu Yu without any explanation.”
“Other than my patients, when have I ever chatted affectionately with other women?” Song Chuyi was speechless. Was this person even his friend? He was too easily swayed.
Li Shaobin was suddenly stumped for words. It seemed true. “No matter what, the one who’s hurt is your Robben. She said she’s going to make dog meat stew.”
“So be it.” Song Chuyi moved his lips.
“It’s getting late; should we go have some dog meat hotpot or something?” Li Shaobin suddenly felt like having dog meat hotpot when he thought about dog meat.
“Do you think I can eat anything like this now?” Song Chuyi’s head hurt and so did his lips. He would probably have to eat light in these next few days.
In the courtyard, the moment Changqing stepped into the villa, Robben came running and barking, looking very excited.
Chuchu stared hatefully at him and poked his head, saying, “What are you barking for? That b*stard Song Chuchu isn’t coming back and I’m not giving you back to him. You’re not allowed to see him in the future. I’m going to break your leg every time you see him.”
Robben immediately wagged his tail excitedly.
“You’re so stupid; you don’t even understand what I’m saying,” Changqing grumbled with frustration.
That night, Changqing tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. She didn’t dare to turn her phone off. After sleeping for a while, she looked at her messages and put her phone down frustratedly, feeling very gloomy.
The next morning, on Monday, there was a major meeting held at the hospital.
When Song Chuyi walked in, the high-ranking people all cast him weird glances. Some didn’t dare to laugh, holding their laughter in due to his rank.
Only Director Guo, who was usually on good terms with him, laughed out loud. “Chuyi, what’s wrong with you? Don’t tell me you got injured by your wife while kissing her?”
The corners of Song Chuyi’s mouth twitched and after a short while, he said lightly, “No, I accidentally bit myself while eating.”
“How hard must you have bit yourself to need a band-aid?” Director Guo only found it funny and said jokingly, “Chuyi, no matter how good the food is, you still have to eat slowly. Don’t rush through your meals.”
The surrounding people couldn’t hold it in and burst out into soft laughter. Song Chuyi’s temples were pulsing and the whole time, he was expressionless. When he stood up during his presentation during the weekly meeting, everyone had their attention focused on his lips. Even the Hospital Director was trying very hard to hold his laughter in.
The morning meeting finally ended, and not long after he returned to his department, he received a call from Guan Ying. “Chuyi, are you working today? It’s like this—I’m at the hospital today for my follow-up. Could you help me make some arrangements? I’m afraid if I lined up, I would attract attention.”
“… Alright.” Song Chuyi pondered for a while and agreed softly. “In the morning or afternoon?”
“Four in the afternoon.”
Song Chuyi agreed and hung up. After that, he gave Dr. Wang a call.
At four in the afternoon, Guan Ying took the company car and arrived at the hospital’s internal carpark. She went straight to the hospitalization section to look for Dr. Wang. Dr. Wang performed a check-up and an X-ray on her and said, “Your bones are healing pretty well. However, it’s still best for you to rest and recuperate for the time to come.”
“Alright, thank you Dr. Wang.” Guan Ying was silent after that and appeared to ask casually, “Is Dr. Song in the hospitalization section too today?”
“… Yes.” Dr. Song was shocked. He recalled hearing from someone recently that Song Chuyi was already married. He thought for a while and didn’t tell Guan Ying. He wasn’t aware of the love life of these rich people, so it would be best if he spoke less. If he offended Song Chuyi, it would cost him his future. “He should be in his office.”
Guan Ying nodded and slowly took the lift to the Neurology department on the twelfth floor. She had been to Song Chuyi’s office many times when they were dating.
The office door was shut tight. She knocked. No one opened.
She hesitated for a while and turned the handle. The door wasn’t locked. The aircon was on in the room and it was very chilly.
She took a brief look at the simple layout. Suddenly, the cold voice of a woman came from behind. “What are you doing standing in front of Dr. Song’s door?”
Guan Ying turned around and saw a woman in a white coat. Her long hair was tied up into a ponytail. She had light makeup on and looked pretty and proper. However, her eyes were gleaming with unfriendliness.
Guan Ying took a look at her name tag. Doctor Yu Sihe, also from Neurology. However, she was still an intern.
“You’re Guan Ying?” Although she was wearing a mask, Yu Sihe still managed to recognize her very quickly. Her brows were tightly knit. The reason why she took notice of Guan Ying was that she heard Song Chuyi had dated her before. She had always taken extra notice of people Song Chuyi dated.
“I’m here to see Chuyi.” Guan Ying could feel a sense of hostility from this woman’s eyes. Song Chuyi was handsome and highly skilled in medicine. On top of that, he had a good family background. It wasn’t strange for women to like him.
“Chuyi?” Yu Sihe suddenly recalled a piece of hot entertainment news a while ago and her mouth curled into a smile. “You address him pretty intimately. However, I remember that the two of you broke up. Since you broke up, it doesn’t seem very nice to seek him out all the time.”
“I’m here to see him, not you.” Guan Ying mocked her politely and subtly. It was none of Yu Sihe’s business who she was looking for.
Yu Sihe wasn’t angry. Instead, she smiled even more joyfully. “Miss Guan, don’t tell me you still want to reconcile with him?”
“It’s none of your business,” Guan Ying said lightly.
“It is none of my business. However, I think Miss Guan seems to have become a third party.” Yu Sihe let out a laugh. Indeed, she quickly saw those beautiful eyebrows of Guan Ying’s knitting together tightly all of a sudden.
“What do you mean by that?” Could it be that Song Chuyi already had a girlfriend?
Thinking of that possibility, Guan Ying suddenly felt a sudden pain in her chest. Although she was the one who ruined their relationship then, she couldn’t deny that she had feelings for Song Chuyi. It was only that those feelings weren’t more important than her career and her pursuits. However, in the past while, after talking to Fu Yu and after getting hurt from filming, there were some times when Song Chuyi stood out for her without any regard for the past. Especially that time when her father and brother came to the hospital and Song Chuyi’s strong and imposing appearance made her feel like she had once again found someone to depend on in this lonely city.
She had regretted giving up on Song Chuyi countless times during this period when she was recovering. This sense of regret wasn’t just because of Song Chuyi’s identity, but it was more because she had fallen for this person.
She wanted to start anew.
“You really know nothing.” Yu Sihe suddenly felt better. So there was someone who was even more pathetic than her. “Dr. Song is already married.”
The skin around Guan Ying’s eyes, which was exposed, seemed to have become as white as the mask she was wearing.
“That’s impossible.” She quickly denied it. She had broken up with Song Chuyi for less than two months. It was impossible for him to get married so quickly.
“I also only found out a few days ago,” Yu Sihe said sarcastically. “And you even know the person he’s married to; you’re pretty close to her.”
Guan Ying was puzzled. Close to her?
Although she had been in Northern City for many years and knew quite a lot of people, who could be that close to her…?
She couldn’t come up with a name. She hadn’t heard anyone around her talking about marriage recently.
“You’re so silly. It looks like your best friend didn’t tell you at all.” Yu Sihe’s gaze slowly filled with sympathy. “Actually, if I didn’t watch the news, I wouldn’t know that you two were actually good friends. I heard you two even graduated from the same university and stayed in the same dormitory. A while ago, you two were even on the same show. You’re the female lead and she’s the second female lead. During filming, you got a fracture from a horse kick because you wanted to save her. In the end, your role as the female lead is gone but she got the same amount of screentime as the female lead from how things turned out.”
“You’re spouting nonsense.” Guan Ying shook her head.
Every word that Yu Sihe said seemed to be obviously hinting that this person was Yan Changqing.
However, Guan Ying didn’t believe that. This must be the biggest joke in the world.
How could Changqing have gotten married to Song Chuyi?
Changqing knew very well that she had dated with Song Chuyi before and Changqing knew that she wanted to get back together with Song Chuyi.
In her heart, Changqing was as clean as a piece of paper. Pure and untainted. Sometimes, she was jealous of this piece of white paper. Sometimes, she felt a sense of inferiority in front of this piece of white paper.
However, she had always believed that among the four of them, even if Ruan Yang and Jiang Duoyao betrayed her one day, she would never believe that Changqing would betray her.
However, why would Yu Sihe malign Changqing? She had no reason to. Unless it was true…
However, she was unable to accept this news. Today wasn’t April Fool’s Day.
“I’m not spouting nonsense. Many people in the hospital know about this.” Yu Sihe laughed coldly. “Just not long ago, Dr. Song returned from his business trip to Switzerland. Some people from our hospital went to sing to welcome him back. That night, Yan Changqing came with her sister Yan Changxin. Yan Changxin said in front of everyone that Yan Changqing was married to Dr. Song. I also asked around and the Song Family knows about this. They got married not long ago too.”
