Chapter 163: 132 Lu Han’s affection, Tang Su received it with joy (1 update)_1
“We’ve got a girl at our table, are you trying to gross us all out until it’s just you left?” Bai Dingkai quickly poured Tang Su a cup of Sprite and gulped it down, otherwise, before even starting to eat, Bai Dingxian would have completely ruined their appetites.
While Bai Dingkai kept mocking Bai Dingxian, he glanced over at Lu Han and Tang Su.
He realized that out of the four, he was the only one feeling grossed out; the other three were perfectly calm.
Tang Su naturally was calm. Since her childhood, her royal father and mother had polluted her ears and soul; they would unabashedly discuss their work at the dinner table in front of her and her brother.
Their work, which seed to have a relatively prestigious social standing on the surface, actually involved dealing with what many would consider filthy and repulsive.
But those things that seed frightening and disgusting to ordinary people were precisely what dical practitioners faced every day.
Doctors in the pathology departnt, aside from taking patients’ blood samples, also have to test their urine and feces. Even fully masked and protected, the intense and pungent slls still manage to perate the doctors’ nostrils.
After a day’s work, is it necessary to skip als?
Life must go on.
Furthermore, let’s talk about Doctor Lu and Tang Su’s mother, both otolaryngologists; the types of patients they encounter at work and the problems those patients have, nobody can predict.
No matter the patient, all they need to do is use their expertise to alleviate suffering. As for feeling disgusted, there’s no ti to care about that.
The work must be done, disgusting or not.
Her father was an anesthesiologist, that’s a job requiring extre precision, a little too much or too little just won’t do. Besides technical precision, he can’t choose the patients that co in for surgery.
Whether they are covered in blood or filth, you can’t just quit because you find a patient disgusting.
In summary, Tang Su and her brother, throughout their growth, no matter if it was their parents discussing their departnt or any other topic at the dinner table, they managed to remain unfazed.
Even when their father said, “Hmm, considering the quality of these two siblings, they could even work in the pathology departnt in the future, they’ve got strong ntal fortitude.”
It was their grandmother who firmly opposed them practicing dicine.
Tang Su herself really didn’t like it, especially when scrolling through her phone and seeing those stories about dical practitioners with compassionate hearts who still get no gratitude, she would feel utterly disheartened.
It’s just like teachers who are very much reluctant to have their own children beco teachers as well.
“Tang Su wouldn’t feel grossed out,” Bai Dingxian said.
“Why not?” Bai Dingkai wondered. He felt disgusted, and Tang Su was a girl, after all.
Girls are even more particular about these things.
“Her parents are in the dical field just like us. Her mother and Lu Han have the sa specialty, and her father is even more impressive—an anesthesiologist, and an anesthesiologist is highly valued in the hospital,” he said.
Bai Dingkai had an epiphany and looked back at the two people opposite him, “No wonder you two hit it off so well. There’s this layer as well, Lu Han, you’re quite the chooser, aren’t you?”
Lu Han couldn’t be bothered with him, cooking all the premium goose intestines and sharing them with Tang Su, along with most of the spicy beef that also went into their bowls.
By the ti Bai Dingkai realized what was happening, he found that all the food that went well with the hotpot had been sneakily consud by the two people across from him.
Unbelievable.
Afterward, Bai Dingkai stopped talking and focused on eating.
Like he hadn’t eaten in eight lifetis, he devoured the food as if there were no tomorrow.
Lu Han ate with elegance, feeding Tang Su while enjoying his own al.
This display of affection, which Bai Dingkai, who had long been accustod to more grotesque sights, hardly registered—when he was with girls, it was usually he who was taken care of.
The servility Lu Han exhibited, like that of a humble servant, was nothing for him to be jealous of.
Bai Dingxian had never been in love. He’d had a liking for girls, but it had ended before it even started. So, watching Lu Han made him a bit envious.
Who was Lu Han showing his affection for?
They had no right to torture the single ones, okay?
After getting to know Bai Dingkai better, Tang Su accepted Doctor Lu’s feeding and asked a question that she was curious about, “Second Brother Bai, why did you think of
for the lead role in your new drama?”
“Haven’t you read the novel ‘First Love’?” Bai Dingkai was puzzled; that novel was very popular, as soone had recomnded it to him. Originally, he thought it was just a novel about romance between a man and a woman and didn’t pay much attention.
It was one night when he couldn’t fall asleep and, out of boredom, started reading the novel. The more he read, the more excited he beca, which led him to have a screenwriter adapt it into a script.
Once the script was complete, it captured the plot of the novel perfectly, and the writer also reasonably addressed and resolved any minor logical inconsistencies.
All in all, ‘First Love’ as a script was even more exciting than the novel.
Bai Dingkai was confident that if this drama was made, the young audience would love it.
It had the emotional tug-of-war between the male and female leads that they wanted to see, plus the classic love triangle. Moreover, it corresponded with the current trends among young people—the female lead wasn’t love-struck, and her career progressed hand in hand with her romantic life.
Bai Dingkai had even t with the author of the original novel, who said that all he wanted to convey was the notion that only an equally matched love could last a lifeti.
This is, in fact, similar to the long-celebrated concept of matching social and economic statuses in marriage.
The idea that a Cinderella can win the prince’s love solely based on her beauty and kindness is no longer realistic in today’s society.
And people today don’t like stories about a poor girl marrying into a wealthy family only to be bullied initially, then ultimately triumphing through sheer perseverance and hard work.
Why do people now like stories with a strong female lead, and why do they enjoy satisfyingly straightforward plots? Isn’t it because life is tough, won’s thoughts have risen, and they are the ones fuelling the revolution?
Revolutions usually end up victorious, after all.
So, to make money, he naturally needed to follow the market trend.
“First Love” isn’t about a strong female lead or a straightforward, satisfying story; it’s an inspirational tale that is much closer to real life.
That kind of adaptation has a lot going for it.
Satisfyingly straightforward plots are probably better suited for short dramas.
Bai Dingkai didn’t do short dramas, even though so people had made quite a bit of money from them.
Bai Dingkai understood that he had to do what he liked and what he was good at.
“No.” Tang Su shook her head.
“Then I recomnd you read this novel when you have ti, like when you’re minding the shop. Hey, don’t you have a month-long vacation coming up?”
“Yeah, okay, I’ll find ti to read it.”
At this point, Bai Dingkai whimsically asked, “That Tang Su, since we’ll be relatives in the future, about those damages you’re owed, could you possibly…”
“No.” Tang Su hadn’t spoken yet when Lu Han, who had been quiet all this ti, decisively refused.
Bai Dingkai: “…”
Bai Dingxian: “Pfft…”
Bai Dingxian was speechless too. The Bai Family always said he was no match for Lu Han, that his IQ didn’t asure up.
Everyone in the Bai Family beca a bit dim-witted in front of Lu Han, didn’t they?
It was as if Lu Han had cast a spell over each of them with the surna Bai.
They might be relatives with Lu Han, but Lu Han was going to be family with Tang Su.
If anyone infringed on his family’s interests, there was no way Lu Han would allow it.
“Sorry, Second Brother Bai, but I’m going to listen to Lu Han.” Tang Su added, in a quiet backstab.
“…”
There was nothing to be sorry about. He had witnessed firsthand how this couple would act in unison in the future.
In an attempt to spare his second brother the embarrassnt, Bai Dingxian changed the subject, “So, did you find your leads eventually? Weren’t you saying it was soone with the surna Shen… what was her na again…?”
“Shen Tian? I don’t know who she’s offended, but there you go. My aunt saw so video and forwarded it to . She knows Shen Tian is the female lead in the new play I’m investing in, so she advised
to think carefully.”
Bai Dingxian: “…”
Bai Dingxian, who wasn’t quite clear about the relationship between Tang Su, Shen Tian, and Ye Sichen, couldn’t make sense of it at all and wondered who Bai Dingkai was passive-aggressively targeting.
Lu Han, the target of the insinuation, continued to help Tang Su cook things in a straightforward and calm manner.
Just now, when Tang Su glanced at the duck blood for three seconds, Lu Han imdiately picked up the plate and put it into the boiling pot.
Bai Dingkai’s passive-aggressive comnts weren’t understood by Bai Dingxian, but Tang Su got the ssage.
It made sense now. Shen Tian started off so confident as the fixed female lead, so how could it be that because of a venue issue, her role was suddenly retracted?
Tang Su always thought this matter had nothing to do with her, but as it turned out, it did.
She didn’t bla Lu Han, though; after all, what he did was to stand up for her.
Even if she felt it unnecessary.
But the affection Lu Han showed was certainly sothing she was happy to receive.
