DJPWNK 25

“Shen Fangyu,” Jiang Xu introduced him to Yu Xin, “a colleague.”

“Hello, I’m Yu Xin.” Yu Xin graciously extended her hand and smiled politely, “I’m Jiang Xu’s blind date, but I haven’t developed into a girlfriend.”

Shen Fangyu gave an “oh”, and perhaps it was her illusion, but Yu Xin felt like the man’s harshness towards her faded away, as if he was relieved.

“That’s good,” Shen Fangyu smiled as he shook her hand, and with a playful banter, said unmercifully: “Jiang Xu, a clean-freak with a deadpan face and a cold—” because of a certain enthusiasm in Shen Fangyu’s memories, he swallowed the last adjective without a trace, and continued calmly, “He’s not good enough for you.”

Yu Xin: “……”

It was Yu Xin’s first time seeing such a disruptive colleague. Earlier, Yu Sang and the rest were praising Jiang Xu for how hard-working he was and how he never got involved with girls. But what surprised Yu Xin even more was that Jiang Xu tolerated Shen Fangyu saying this about him. In the next second, Shen Fangyu even put his hand on Jiang Xu’s shoulder, and pulled him closer.

Yu Xin’s mobile phone fell on the table.

In the parking lot of Jihua Hospital, Yu Xin opened the phone she had picked up in a daze and excitedly called her best friend, “I met that doctor, he’s really handsome in person, and he gave me a parking card!”

“Really? Really?!” Best friend: “Then why don’t you just bag him?”

“No, no, no,” Yu Xin looked extra excited, “I think he is gay…… such a handsome guy has never had a girlfriend, and also said he can’t have a relationship for some personal reasons, isn’t that a little fishy? The most outrageous thing is that a big handsome guy suddenly barged in when we had just finished eating and his behavior was like a declaration of sovereignty!”

“Holy shit! It’s true that all the handsome guys either have girlfriends or are gay, do you have a picture?!”

Yu Xin quickly sent over a photo. Jiang Xu had wanted to walk her downstairs but she insisted on leaving on her own, and after parting ways, she quietly took a picture of Jiang Xu and Shen Fangyu’s backs as she stood at the elevator entrance.

“And let me tell you, after I left, that big handsome guy even called him over to the window sill, like someone who was going to be reprimanded for betrayal!”

The best friend laughed wistfully, “He’s in a hurry, he’s in a hurry!” She clicked on the photo and saw two tall men standing by the windowsill, one was leaning against the windowsill with a bit of helplessness on his face, and the other had his hands crossed over his chest. His back was to the camera and his expression wasn’t visible, but she could sense a bit of oppression.

Shen Fangyu looked at the person in front of him and asked softly, “Was the love lunch good?”

Jiang Xu glanced at him.

“Aren’t you eating happily, why aren’t you talking now?”

Jiang Xu pressed the bridge of his nose and then looked at Shen Fangyu, “What are you so agitated about?”

“So you were in a hurry to go to M country for surgery because of a blind date?” Shen Fangyu had a smile on his face, but his tone wasn’t kind, “I underestimated you Jiang Xu.” He paused, and spoke through gritted teeth, “Do you want to get married that badly?”

“What kind of attitude is that?” Jiang Xu’s eyes suddenly became cold, “Tricking me to extract a confession?”

“Do I still need to trick you to extract a confession?” Shen Fangyu tensed his jaw, “She even came here to look for you, so you must be developing quite quickly, Jiang Xu.”

His smile was as if it was painted on his face, without any warmth at all, and his eyes were full of sarcasm, “You should do your own night shift from now on, I’m not a bodhisattva, I’m not going to help you with your shift so that you can take my daughter on a blind date after you’ve recovered your strength.”

“Shen Fangyu,” Jiang Xu’s anger was rising and he gave Shen Fangyu an impatient glance, “I just gave you face in front of an outsider, why are you taking it out on me now?”

He walked straight past Shen Fangyu towards the exit, bumping his shoulder against Shen Fangyu as he brushed past.

“Love is either worth it or not, no one is begging you to be worth it.”

“Jiang Xu!”

Shen Fangyu, who had been left behind, raised his voice: “You’re allowed to have lunch and a blind date with someone else, but I’m not allowed to say anything?” He put away his smile and kicked the small chair by the window, “Don’t you have a fucking conscience!”

Jiang Xu turned around and pointed at the surveillance camera above his head, “Damage to public property, you’ll have to pay for it.” Without looking back, he stepped into the open elevator doors and pressed the close button expressionlessly.

Shen Fangyu followed where he pointed and looked up. The large surveillance camera seemed to have caught his gaze, and the little red light flashed like a wink, full of sympathy and pity.

Shen Fangyu was so angry that he gave the innocent little foot chair another kick, “Shit.”

For several days in a row, the atmosphere in the obstetrics and gynecology department of Jihua Hospital was unusually delicate.

The relationship between Dr. Jiang and Dr. Shen, which had been easing up a while ago, had once again fallen to a freezing point. As long as the two appeared in the office at the same time, it was as if the world was in the middle of a snowstorm and a mosquito flying in could be instantly frozen, so everyone was on tenterhooks.

Fortunately, these two people were always busy and didn’t have much time in the same frame, but …… Yu Sang took a look at Jian Xu, who had moved his workstation to the third office… Gods fight, and the kids suffer.

The first doctors’ office was for the director, the second was for the deputy chief physicians and attending physicians, while the third office was mainly for residents and trainees, and graduate students who come for internship. Almost all of Jiang Xu’s students were in the third office, and seeing the teacher in the same office as they made the students live every day with fear and trepidation.

“Little Shao,” Jiang Xu opened the door in a hurry, and the lively office went completely silent. The girl whose name was called out stiffly turned around and raised her hand: “Yes, Teacher Jiang.”

“Follow me to the clinic, I’ll wait for you at the elevator.” After saying that, he didn’t even enter the office door and walked straight to the elevator.

Shao Le instantly stood up from her chair like a spring launch, gathered her papers and pencils, and went out after him. As soon as she went out, she heard someone say with a chuckle, “Slow down, don’t fall.”

If it were usual, Shao Le would have been touched to hear such concern, but at this moment, she didn’t dare to move at all.

Her teacher was standing ten meters away at the elevator, and next to her was her mentor’s nemesis, Dr. Shen, who either had no self-awareness at all or was purely provocative. He strutted with her Jiang Xu and asked her knowingly, “Little Shao, are you going to the outpatient clinic?”

Jiang Xu was standing right in front of him, and instead of asking Jiang Xu, he came to ask her, the little doctor in training.

Shao Le was numb.

She gave a very small “mmm”, and Shen Fangyu then said, “Oh …… I’m also going to the clinic today, so if Dr. Jiang doesn’t teach you well, you can come over to my side.”

Jiang Xu glanced at Shen Fangyu and said coldly, “I heard that the last two students in the departmental knowledge test a few days ago were your students, I suggest that Dr. Shen should worry more about himself.”

“It’s just a small test,” Shen Fangyu retorted, “Why didn’t you tell me about the time your unlucky student was scared by your cold face and almost dropped the model during the surgical operation test? It seems that Dr. Jiang wants to continue his reign as the most feared teacher in the Obstetrics and Gynaecology department this year… Ah, Little Shao, you must go and vote and help your teacher realize his dream.”

“……” Shao Le cried in fear, ‘Please let me go, I’m just a small doctor.’

The elevator doors finally dinged, and Shao Le let out a sigh of relief. She put all her hopes on the lift, after all, the lift elevator of the inpatient department was always overcrowded, and when everyone squeezes in, the pair will naturally be squeezed apart.

As expected, the elevator doors opened and countless doctors and patients’ families crowded together, shouting and pushing, and Shao Le was pushed into a small corner. Thinking that she could finally breathe a sigh of relief, she looked up and saw that Dr. Jiang was pushed to the side of the elevator, while Dr Shen was almost face-to-face with him.

Shao Le stared blankly. She blocked her ears, and began to chant silently: don’t fight, don’t fight, don’t fight.

Jiang Xu glared at Shen Fangyu, who was almost holding him in his arms. He lifted his foot to kick him, but the latter directly used the cover of the crowd to pin his leg.

“Don’t move.” He whispered in Jiang Xu’s ear.

The hot air fell on the pinnae of the ear and made it feel ticklish and itchy. Jiang Xu pursed his lips and said to Shen Fangyu, “Stay away from me.”

“If I wasn’t afraid our daughter would be crushed, who would bother to protect you?” Shen Fangyu said.

“You…”

“What?

Jiang Xu glared at him.

The elevator opened once more and a new wave of people forced their way in. Shen Fangyu put his hand on Jiang Xu’s shoulder, encircling him in his arms like a hug. Jiang Xui tried to raise his hand against his chest in disgust, but the elevator was so crowded that he couldn’t even get his hand halfway up.

“Ahem…..” Shen Fangyu cleared his throat and lowered his voice, “Can you take your hand away? Or can you change its position?”

Jiang Xu jerked his hand away and when he saw Shen Fangyu’s gaze drifting, he couldn’t help but let out a “fuck” and reached out to pinch his waist, “What kind of scrap do you have in your head all day long.”

When Shen Fangyu felt the pain, he couldn’t help but say, “What’s it to you, aren’t you the one moving your hands unscrupulously?”

Jiang Xu turned his head expressionlessly, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart as he silently looked at the floor numbers on the elevator.

“Jiang Xu,” Shen Fangyu looked as if he had discovered something particularly interesting. He stared at Jiang Xu’s earlobe that had fallen into his eyes because of his tilted head, “I noticed that you also have a mole on your earlobe.”

“Oh.”

“And your ears are red.”

“Fuck off.”

The elevator finally reached the ground floor, and although Shao Le saw Jiang Xu and Shen Fangyu whispering something the whole time, the two still had a sense of proportion and didn’t fight in the elevator.

But……

The moment the elevator opened, Jiang Xu walked out, and with his long legs, he was out of sight in seconds.

“Shao Le,” Jiang Xu suddenly asked Shao Le, who had finally caught up with him, “are my ears red?”

Shao Le was a little surprised, “No, they’re not.”

Jiang Xu took a deep breath and turned to glare at Shen Fangyu, who, as if expecting it, raised his hand in a pistol gesture, but before he could fire it, Jiang Xu turned his head back.

“After finishing with the clinic today, go and apply to the logistics to have another elevator built for our inpatient department.”

Shao Le: “Huh?”

“If they don’t have enough funds, they can deduct it from Shen Fangyu’s account.” Jiang Xu walked like the wind, “Tell them I suggested it.”

Shao Le: “……”
