Han Xi rubbed his forehead, who would have thought the screen's sexy goddess Chu Ci had such a nosy side behind the scenes, completely unlike her on-screen persona.
Han Xi wore a "I'm not going to butt in, I'm just here to enjoy my meal" expression while watching the two people in front of him chat back and forth.
"Han Xi, you need to treasure the person in front of you and hold onto this man tightly. Tomorrow I'm going to the hospital to check him out for you."
Chu Ci had a serious expression like a parent wanting to meet the son-in-law.
Oh my god, Han Xi just wished a bolt of lightning would strike him dead.
What on earth is she talking about?
Han Xi swallowed the crab meat in his mouth and quickly stopped her: "Goddess, I don't like that Mr. Lu at all, and he doesn't like me. It's a complete misunderstanding."
"I know what I'm doing, don't worry. If you don't find a boyfriend soon, Manman and I are going to seriously question your sexual orientation."
There's just no chatting today, this conversation is about to die any minute.
The three of them ate for over two hours, and when they left, Chu Ci armed herself with a hat and mask, fully equipped before stepping out of the private room.
By the time they got home, it was almost midnight. All three took showers and went to bed.
The next morning when Chu Ci and Li Manman woke up, Han Xi had already gone to work. She had surgery at eight in the morning, so she had to go to the hospital early to prepare.
Li Manman turned over on the bed, clutching her almost exploding head. She drank too much last night, and now she was feeling terrible.
No matter how good alcohol is, don't overindulge, a heart-wrenching lesson indeed.
Chu Ci got out of bed and glimpsed the note on the bedside table, left by Han Xi on her way out: [Goddess, I will find a boyfriend soon, I really don't find that Mr. Lu interested, don't mess things up for me, please.]
Han Xi clearly remembered how these two women vowed to meet that Mr. Lu last night.
Chu Ci put down the note and picked up her phone to send Han Xi a message: [As long as you're willing to find a boyfriend, I won't go to the hospital.]
A few seconds later Han Xi replied: [Thank you, goddess, I'll hurry to find a boyfriend so you won't worry too much, I have to go into surgery now, bye-bye.]
After nearly four hours of surgery, Han Xi was done by noon and ran into Chen Zheng, who was carrying a lunch box, when she returned to the office.
"I was worried you'd forget to eat because of surgery, so I bought this for you. Eat it while it's hot."
Han Xi accepted the lunch box from him, her picturesque brows holding a gentle smile, her soft lips slightly lifted: "Thank you."
The little nurses passing by in the corridor were so envious of Han Xi. The Chen Family are hospital shareholders, and Chen Zheng is handsome, skilled, and wealthy — the kind of man many women dream of.
"Are you free tonight for dinner?"
Chen Zheng stood in front of Han Xi with his hands in his pockets, his gentle and elegant face and deep eyes fixed on her.
Han Xi isn't unaware of Chen Zheng's kindness, but having been classmates for so many years, if there were feelings, they'd have been together by now. Besides, she didn't want to date anymore.
"I have plans tonight, sorry."
"No problem, we can make arrangements another time. Go eat now, or you'll end up with stomach pain again."
After lunch, Han Xi went to do hospital rounds in the afternoon.
Coming out of Lu Jingwei's hospital room, Lu Jingchen followed and quickly walked a few steps to stand in front of Han Xi, his flirtatious eyes mischievously fixed on her: "Doctor Han, are you free tonight for dinner?"
