She saw someone approaching, and her entire body froze.

It was not Lu Shaoming.

It was Zhou Dayuan.

Zhou Dayuan walked into the hospital ward, and he had a glance at Yue Wanqing who had already fallen asleep, before he walked to Ning Qing’s side. “Ning Qing.”

Ning Qing put the magazine down and stood up slowly. “…Older Brother Dayuan.”

Zhou Dayuan curled his lips into a smile, then said, “I thought that you would never address me as Older Brother Dayuan anymore.”

Ning Qing tugged the corners of her lips, and she could not help but channel her gaze over his shoulders. She looked at the direction of the door.

She was looking for Lu Shaoming.

“Ning Qing, don’t look anymore. Shaoming is at the office; he did not come.”

“…Did he ask you to come over?”

Zhou Dayuan did not answer her question, and he said, “I saw Aunt’s medical records just now. The English professor has treated Aunt, and Aunt’s illness has stabilized. This professor is an old acquaintance of mine, and he has much expertise on kidney ailments. I was just on the phone with him. As long as Aunt continues to have a positive attitude, and if she cooperates with treatment, Aunt will have a long life, and you don’t have to worry any more.”

“Okay.” Ning Qing nodded her head and said, “Older Brother Dayuan, I have to thank you.”

Zhou Dayuan cast his gaze outside the door before he said, “Shall we have a chat with one another?”

…

The two of them stood in the corridor, and Ning Qing asked him straightforwardly, “Older Brother Dayuan, what do you want to talk to me about?”

“Ning Qing, when Shaoming was involved in the plane crash, he used a parachute to get out. He landed in the forest downstream of Lake Baikal, and he met with Leng Zhiyuan and her brother Leng Hao coincidentally, and the pair saved him. In the following 10 days, they met with villagers that were bent on killing them, and Shaoming escaped death once more.”

Ning Qing’s expressions tightened up and she said, “What? Those… Why did those villagers want to kill him?”

Zhou Dayuan looked at Ning Qing’s expression, and he said, “This matter is very complicated. Shaoming has met with some trouble. After he came back, he has been investigating this matter, so Leng Zhiyuan is only a partner of his who is assisting in his investigations, and he hopes that you would not misunderstand him.”

Ning Qing’s expression in her eyes went plain, and she laughed self mockingly. “Older Brother Dayuan, he is very busy, so you also hope that I would not go close to him to bother him right?”

She was always this intelligent, and she could understand the main point he was trying to get across. Zhou Dayuan nodded his head while he agreed. “Yes.”

“Heh.” Ning Qing laughed lightly, and she continued, “Actually I always did not know why, but everything changed after he came back. All of you said that he was very busy, but no matter how busy he was, did it have anything to do with being together with me? I am his wife, and Little Young Master Lu is still so young; both of us still need him. Don’t you think that your request right now is going overboard? Is this fair to me?”

Zhou Dayuan looked at Ning Qing’s small face, he was very apologetic as he said, “Sorry, Ning Qing.”

Ning Qing shook her head while she said, “You all phrase it so nicely and ask me not to disturb him, but what all of you want to say is that you want me to separate from him! The situation between us now is no different from being separated. But all of you still think that this is still not enough. You all don’t want me to look for him, and you all don’t want me to see him!”

“Ning Qing…”

“Sure.” Ning Qing nodded her head with anguish on her pale face. “I believe that what you mean is also what he wants to say. Sure, give me a window.”

Zhou Dayuan pursed his thin lips tightly, and did not give any answer.

He was not a person who was used to lying, and he did not have any confidence towards the love spell. The effects of Miao Jiang’s spell have already exceeded the treatment capabilities of modern medical technology, and after Lu Shaoming’s situation is stable, he would need to see Miao Jiang personally.

He could not give her any answer. He could say six months, one year, two years… but after the date has come, the love spell might not be lifted, so what should Ning Qing do then?

She was like someone drowning, but he could not take a wooden log that was empty on the inside to keep her afloat.

“Heh, haha…” Ning Qing felt the tears blur her line of vision. She cupped her mouth with her two small hands, and she felt it was too funny. “You don’t have an answer, right? I really don’t know where you get your confidence from… I am only 21 years old; on what basis do you think that I would be waiting for him for my entire life?”

Ning Qing turned and left.

“Ning Qing!” Zhou Dayuan held onto Ning Qing’s wrist.

Ning Qing lifted her eyes, and did not turn around, she was sobbing softly while she said, “All of you… Don’t you think that you are all being bullies right now?”

Zhou Dayuan froze and slowly let go of her hand.

Ning Qing ran out.

…

Ning Qing ran back into the corridor, and she coincidentally ran into someone familiar. Jian Han walked up to her and asked, “Ning Qing, what is wrong with you? Why are you crying?”

Ning Qing did not say a single word, and she ran away.

“Ay, Ning Qing!” Jian Han called out to her, and she wanted to give chase, but at this moment, she saw Zhou Dayuan walking down the hall.

Zhou Dayuan was dressed in a light grey cashmere coat, and he had a black wool sweater underneath. The round neck exposed the straight white collar of his shirt inside. His outfit was clean and warm.

Jian Han froze for a moment, and maybe because he was a doctor, this man was very suited to wear white. Out of every man in the world, Zhou Dayuan pulled off white the best. She had not seen him for six years, and that professional air on his body had matured. He had a sense of dignity that was hard to find on other men. He was like a jade stone, and the more years that passed, the more he would shine and glow.

Zhou Dayuan had one hand in the pocket, and he also saw her. Her clear voice had gone through his ears; he just knew it would be her.

He looked at her plainly, then lifted his feet to walk away.

“What did you tell Ning Qing just now? How did you make her cry?” Jian Han asked when he walked past her.

Zhou Dayuan stopped in his tracks and channelled his gaze sideways to look at her. “Why would I have to tell you?”

Jian Han lifted her gaze and welcomed his dark eyes. She laughed as she said, “Isn’t Ning Qing’s husband Young Master Lu? Isn’t he your good brother? You are bullying Ning Qing like this; I think Young Master Lu would not be too happy, right?”

Zhou Dayuan lifted his eyebrows and looked at her firmly.

Jian Han lifted her hand to tuck the strands of hair by her cheek behind her ear, he was a man of elite education and healthy habits. He was a leading professional in his field. He naturally had a warm and refined air to him, and it was rare for him to look at a woman with a frown on his face like this.

She was extremely embarrassed. She could not continue with her ingenuine expression as she said, “Okay then, treat it as if I didn’t say anything, you…”

The man strode over towards her direction.

Physically, the two of them were already close, and once he advanced, the pure air on his body came towards her. Jian Han anxiously retreated two steps backwards towards the wall.

With her retreat, her back directly hit the wall behind her.

Zhou Dayuan stopped before her. He did not behave like other men would and place her in a kabedon. He still had one of his hands in the pocket, and the corner of his coat flapped around his arms. His trousers were perfectly straight, like an arrow. His clean black wool sweater was wrapped around his white, skinny hands, and every part of him could stand against the test of time. He was exquisite and charming.

“Doctor Jian, what do you mean by what you said just now? You reminded me saying that Ning Qing is my good buddy’s wife? I was talking to Ning Qing in the stairwell, and she ran out crying. What were you thinking inside your mind?”

He saw through her thoughts, and Jian Han was a little flustered.

It was not that she was suspicious of him, but Ning Qing was a girl whom many men would fall in love with easily.

“You have misunderstood me.” She defended herself.

A black shadow flashed before her eyes, and the man stretched his hand out towards her. Jian Han did not expect him to touch her, and she shut her eyes in shock.

A mocking laughter rang out through her ears, “How have you not changed even a little after all these years? Once I move, you close your eyes. You thought that I wanted to kiss you?”

After realizing that he was fooling around with her, Jian Han opened her eyes suddenly, and her face was crimson red as she glared at him. “Zhou Dayuan, do you think this is a joke?”

Zhou Dayuan’s pure eyes scanned her red lips, and he seemed to have a smile on his face, but he did not speak.

Jian Han cast her eyes sideways, and she was not willing to look at his rogue yet cultured demeanor.

In the past, when the two of them were dating, he would accompany her to shop while they held hands, and she was chit chatting enthusiastically. This genius from Oxford University did not have much to say in response. When they hit a corner, he liked to pin himself against her, cupping her face while he kissed her.

Every time he looked at her lips, it was a hint that he wanted to kiss her.

Now, everything has changed.

At this moment: “Jian Han.” A man was coming in her direction.

Tang Fan.

Tang Fan was dressed in a white lab coat. He was refined and handsome. The nurses and doctors walking past all bowed down and greeted him politely. “Director.”

Jian Han saw Tang Fan and speedily stood up straight. She stretched out her hand to tidy the clothes that she was wearing.

Zhou Dayuan looked at her anxious behaviour and had a light smile on his face as he said, “I didn’t even touch you. Don’t look as if you were caught in the middle of an affair.”

Jian Han: “…”

Tang Fan walked over and asked, “Jian Han, who is this?”

“Oh, Tang Fan, let me introduce you to him. This is Zhou Dayuan…”

As Jian Han opened her mouth, a gust of cold wind blew past her, and Zhou Dayuan had already turned around and left.

Once again, Jian Han was at a loss for words: “…”

She looked at the man’s handsome and lanky back profile, and he had one of his hands in his pockets, and another was by his side. The handmade black leather shoes tapped onto the floor very lightly, and those tiny footsteps were very typical of him. He was both quiet and steady as he moved, and he was able to make others feel calm and reliant.

Actually, this man was arrogant deep inside his bones. He did not need to be introduced, and they were both people with whom he was irritated. He would not care about manners, and once he cast his manners aside, he could just walk away.

Jian Han channelled her gaze downwards.

“Jian Han, is that Zhou Dayuan? The man that you call out for in your dreams?”

“Yeah.” Jian Han nodded her head.

Tang Fan stretched out his hand to caress her head, and his smile was warm like an older brother. “Since you still like him, why don’t you go to court him again?”

Jian Han shook her head and said, “I won’t.” She turned around and headed in the opposite direction.

COMMENT

Ning Qing went back to the Lu family villa, and she walked into the bedroom. She glanced around for a moment. She took out a duffel bag and opened her wardrobe to organize her clothes.

“Qingqing, it is time for dinner.” Song Yajing walked into the room to ask her to have dinner. She saw her packing her own clothes, and Song Yajing quickly went forward to ask, “Qingqing, why are you packing your clothes?”

Ning Qing lifted her eyes, and smiled gently towards Song Yajing. “Mum, I want to move out.”

“Move out? Where are you moving to? Are you going back to the Tea Pavilion Villa?”

Ning Qing’s long lashes fluttered twice and she shook her head. “My mum has been discharged from the hospital. I will move over to my mum’s place to accompany her for a while.”

Song Yajing’s eyes became red, and she held Ning Qing’s small hand. “Qingqing, it is the Lu family that is sorry towards you, but… We have no other choice.”

“Yeah.” Ning Qing nodded her head and looked at Song Yajing. “Mum, although I do not know what happened, I think that all of you are doing this for the good of Shaoming. I am fine. You don’t have to accommodate for me. It’s merely a coincidence that my mother needs someone to take care of her, so I should move back there to stay with her.”

Ning Qing withdrew her small hand, and she organized her luggage.

After going out of the bedroom, the helper took her luggage in her hand. Ning Qing looked at Little Young Master Lu whom the confinement lady was holding in her embrace, and she opened her arms up. “Little Young Master Lu, come. Let’s go with Mama.”

The confinement lady did not dare to pass Little Young Master Lu over to Ning Qing, and she gave a subtle look to Song Yajing.
