Chapter 1748: Blissful Lovers
“Huh? What is your rank in the hospital?”
Judging from his tone, he was probably pretty high-ranking.
Shen Zhilie didn’t even bother to look up as he replied, “Department Head.”
“What the hell? You’re a department head at such a young age? Damn!”
Fang Tongtong looked astonished. “How can that be? Aren’t most hospital department heads old men in their 40s and into their 50s and 60s? Are you seriously such a young department head?”
Shen Zhilie chuckled when he heard her. “Did Qianqian never mention that to you?”
“Not at all! She never told me a damn thing. Just look how well she hid you! She never even updated me on such a huge development in her life. Sigh…”
Ye Qianqian had just placed the noodles into the pot. When she heard Fang Tongtong’s comment, she felt very pleased and replied, “It’s good enough for me to know this information on my own. Why would I share it with you?”
“Well, is this patient of yours very hard to handle?”
“Quite. She’s on the verge of a breakdown. Judging from her recent situation, she’s showing signs of schizophrenia. If we make a misstep, she might go completely crazy,” Shen Zhilie said sympathetically. “There are too many scumbags in this world.”
“Indeed, there are too many scumbags.” Fang Tongtong was overcome with indignation. “If only all the men in the world were like you.”
“That wouldn’t work either. If all the men in the world were like me, how would I be able to stand out?” Shen Zhilie didn’t bother with modesty at all.
Ye Qianqian snorted when she heard that. “How shameless!” she exclaimed. “Don’t you have any sense of humility?”
“Humility is useless here. The aura of a genius like me cannot be suppressed with humility.”
“Pfft…” Fang Tongtong picked up her shopping bags. “I have absolutely nothing to say to that.”
“You should be agreeing with me and complimenting me,” Shen Zhilie remarked good-naturedly. “If you’re ever scammed by a scumbag in the future, you can come to my hospital. I’ll give you a discount.”
“Knock on wood!” Fang Tongtong picked up an apple and hurled it at him. “Damn you and your inauspicious mouth!”
Shen Zhilie dodged the apple and caught it with one hand. He placed it back on the table and said with a laugh, “I was mistaken. Scumbags wouldn’t dare to mess with a tigress like you.”
Fang Tongtong grew even angrier. “Are you saying that I’m a tomboy nobody will want to marry? Qianqian, aren’t you going to keep your man in check?”
Ye Qianqian brought the bowl of noodles out and placed it in front of Shen Zhilie. She sat beside him without a second thought and said, “What he said was the truth. You aren’t exactly feminine. Isn’t it natural that no one will want to marry you?”
“You’re in cahoots with each other! How mean!” Fang Tongtong picked her shopping bags up and stood up. She walked toward her room and said, “I’m not going to bother with the likes of you!”
As she turned around, she couldn’t maintain the smile on her face.
The way Ye Qianqian and Shen Zhilie harmonized with each other made them seem well-suited.
Fang Tongtong headed to her bedroom. Behind her, she could Shen Zhilie’s voice, “Wow. This smells really good.”
“Ha-ha! Isn’t it? I just refuse to cook. Once I do, you’ll be awestruck.”
Shen Zhilie inhaled the aroma and disdainfully remarked, “Just a compliment or two and you’re blowing your own trumpet.”
“I dare you to say it isn’t so.”
“It is. It is.”
Fang Tongtong closed the door to her room with a heavy heart.
She looked at the room full of fitness equipment and slowly walked in.

For the following two days, Shen Zhilie was unbelievably busy.
Fang Tongtong spent her days having fun on her own. In the evenings, after Ye Qianqian got off work, the two of them would roam around.
It had been another full day and night, and Shen Zhilie still wasn’t back from work.
Ye Qianqian had a nagging premonition that something bad was about to happen.
