Chapter 48: Chapter 48 He Just Doesn’t Care Chapter 48: Chapter 48 He Just Doesn’t Care Ye Chuyi spent the morning commanding operations in the jungle, busily scrambling to minimize the impact of the negative news to the lowest degree.
In the afternoon, she hurried nonstop to Do Hospital for ergency surgery.
The doctors at Do Hospital were actually supposed to work every other day, but due to An Huadong’s “favoritism” toward his student, her schedule had been changed to no days off, always on standby.
Of course, An Huadong himself didn’t rest either.
Chi Cheng could rest, but he was the kind of student who relentlessly pursued excellence, scarily so, which ant he didn’t rest either.
By the ti the ergency surgery was finished, evening had already arrived.
Even Ye Chuyi’s abundant energy was strained to the limit; She sat by the floor-to-ceiling window with a cup of goji berry and red dates tea, watching the sunset outside.
The hot tea, carrying a sweet scent, dispersed her fatigue.
The spectacular and grand beauty of the sunset provided relief for her sore eyes.
She had barely taken two sips of her tea when the door to her office was pushed open.
She looked up and, to her surprise, it was Sheng Tingyuan again!
He had switched into another crisp suit, the white shirt immaculate, his short hair neatly arranged without a strand out of place, even his leather shoes shone brightly— the epito of a wealthy family’s young master.
What was most important was his composure, his gaze so lofty, as if he had never encountered any difficulties before.
Was this the vast difference between a working-class person and the heir to a capital empire?
Here she was, working herself to the bone alone, half dead from exhaustion, spirits down, while he was bursting with vibrancy and energy, as if he could pull ten all-nighters in a row!
Ye Chuyi was imnsely troubled, “Why are you here again? Didn’t I say don’t co if there’s nothing important?”
“I have sothing.”
“I also said, even if there’s sothing, don’t co!”
Sheng Tingyuan looked at her glass, which incredibly contained neither coffee nor alcohol, but goji berries and red dates.
Recalling their encounter at a dinner party three years ago, a sense of incongruity abruptly rose within him, “I rember you said you don’t drink plain water or tea.”
Ye Chuyi was surprised, “Then what do I drink?”
“Alcohol.”
Ye Chuyi was stunned. Was Ye Shuangyin this outrageous? While others had blood flowing in their veins, did she only have alcohol?
She shook her head, “I’m a doctor; if I drank alcohol on the job, wouldn’t that an I no longer want to work? How would I treat patients if I were drunk?”
“You consider yourself a doctor?”
Sheng Tingyuan’s eyes were full of skepticism, “I’ve never seen you treat anyone; anyway, you’re good for nothing. No one would care if you drank. It would be best if you were drunk; that way, no patient would suffer at your hands.”
Ye Chuyi glared at him, “What exactly do you want? If there’s nothing, then please leave; I get a headache just looking at you.”
“I have sothing.”
Sheng Tingyuan’s tone was casual, “Co ho for dinner tonight.”
Ye Chuyi firmly refused, “I’m not going. I’ll go back to my own ho to eat.”
“We are already married.”
“Yes, we are married, but I didn’t sell myself to you. I still have the right to eat at my own ho.”
“Your mother is also coming to my house for dinner tonight.”
Hearing that Madam Ye would be going too, Ye Chuyi’s shoulders sagged slightly.
Madam Ye was likely going to put on a show at the Sheng Family’s ho, and Ye Chuyi had no choice but to attend.
But to prevent Sheng Tingyuan from tricking her, she made a point to call Madam Ye to confirm.
Indeed, he hadn’t lied to her.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Chuyi stood up, “Let’s go, then. Ho for dinner.”
“Having to confirm over the phone, have you tricked people so often that you think everyone else does the sa?”
“If I were like you, trusting everybody, I’d have been dead many tis over.” To think she accidentally married a fake Ye Family young miss and he still had the nerve to criticize her!
“I don’t trust just anybody, either.”
Ye Chuyi thought about it and nodded her head.
That was right, he didn’t actually trust her; he simply didn’t care.
He had soone in the bottom of his heart that he cared about, so everyone else was inconsequential—marrying the Ye Family’s young miss was just a show of filial piety.
