The phone rang at noon.
Seeing Bai Song’s na.
Qi Yuqing couldn’t help but have the corners of her mouth curl up with happiness.
He’s really being considerate.
"Hello! Who is this?"
Pretending not to know who it is?
"It’s Bai Song. Your car has been sent to the repair shop. I checked and it will need a week. The car key is also left at the repair shop. I gave them your phone number; they should contact you today or tomorrow."
Very proper, never overstepping any bounds.
It really suits Bai Song’s style.
Would it kill him to say a bit more?
Qi Yuqing really wanted to ask.
She suspiciously touched her own face.
"Thank you so much, I didn’t expect you to help out this much."
"It’s nothing, it’s what I should do. You’re friends with my sister, so naturally, you’re my friend too. If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up."
This is so Bai Song’s style.
Could it be I’m not attractive anymore?
Is Bai Song even a man?
Wasn’t it Bai Xiao who said that her brother never had a girlfriend before?
A man like this should feel sothing for a beautiful woman, right!
"Wait, I still have sothing to say!"
"What is it?"
"My car is broken, and I live far away. It’s really inconvenient not having a car—it takes at least three hours to commute."
Qi Yuqing was waiting for Bai Song to respond.
I gave you a chance, now take it.
Just say you’ll pick up!
But there was silence on the other end.
"Oh! Then leave a bit earlier!"
Qi Yuqing almost fainted from anger.
Are you a man?
To such an obvious hint from a girl, what the hell is that for a response?
Fine, this calls for drastic asures.
No more hesitation.
"Look, I’m good friends with Bai Xiao, and you’re her brother, so I’ll be straight with you, Brother Bai—that ans I’ll be troubling you to pick up these next few days for work. Bye-bye! See you tonight, I finish work at 6:30!"
Qi Yuqing gleefully hung up the phone. She realized that with Bai Song, typical thods wouldn’t work, and only she would lose out.
Look at that shaless thod, it’s the most effective.
On the other side, Bai Song stared at the receiver in a daze. Picking her up—it’s not that he couldn’t—but their relationship wasn’t that close, was it?
But given Bai Song’s nature, he couldn’t possibly call back and tell her no.
Thinking of Bai Xiao.
His sister used to have a really good relationship with Qi Yuqing; they even lived in the sa room.
Back then, Qi Yuqing took good care of Bai Xiao.
Forget it.
Bai Xiao still talks about Qi Yuqing from ti to ti, always saying she’s a good girl, enthusiastic and cheerful, and great to get along with—a girl everyone loves.
He hasn’t seen the everyone-loves part, but she really is cheerful and enthusiastic.
Being so naturally familiar, not many girls could do that.
It’s just giving her a ride.
Just rembering how focused and serious Qi Yuqing was when delivering the baby made Bai Song feel respect and admiration.
Just as persistent as his sister.
Such a girl is beautiful.
A friend of his sister is also his friend.
If a friend is in need, of course, he should help.
Good thing there’s not much going on at the office lately.
Bai Song put the matter at the back of his mind.
Evening ca, and Qi Yuqing was off work.
She deliberately stood in front of the mirror, letting down her long hair, which she usually put up for convenience at work.
But after work, she let it down, combed it out, creating a beautiful arc with the wavy strands.
She lifted a smile.
Confidently pursing her lips.
This was her most beautiful self.
She grabbed her shoulder bag and walked out.
As soon as she reached the front door, she spotted Bai Song’s car, a black ordinary Santana, not flashy at all, especially in an era crowded with luxury cars.
The chance of seeing a luxury car was high at their hospital entrance.
Whoever says this is a well-known hospital in the Capital City.
Many big shots co here for treatnt.
Naturally, there’s no lack of eye-catching views.
Bai Song stood by his car! Leaning against it, talking to soone.
It was a woman, very pretty, smiling while saying sothing, tilting her head, standing quite close to Bai Song, with a familiar attitude.
Qi Yuqing felt a pang in her heart.
Who is she to Bai Song?
Didn’t they say Bai Song has no girlfriend?
Could it be that after she went abroad, Bai Song found soone already!
If that’s the case, she really would have to step back.
Coming from an ordinary working-class family, getting to this point wasn’t easy, but Qi Yuqing was seriously principled and proper.
Doing things like stealing soone’s love, being a third party—it’s not sothing she could do.
If she dared, her own dad would break her leg.
"Dr. Qi! Wait a mont!"
Soone caught up to her, breathlessly blocking Qi Yuqing.
Looking up, it was Fang Huan, a newly transferred doctor in their hospital’s surgery departnt. He was said to have returned from abroad, from a family with an impressive background, wealthy and powerful, good-looking too, though a bit arrogant in his dealings.
Not to the point where his eyes were completely on his nose, though.
He was quite alright toward her.
To be precise, he was nice to all the girls in the departnt.
Especially, he kept hanging around her, and it wasn’t hard to see what Fang Huan was up to.
Wasn’t it all because he thought she was pretty and wanted to gain an advantage from being close by?
Moreover, he believed his wealth made winning over Qi Yuqing trouble-free.
"Dr. Fang, what is it?"
Her attitude was good, warm towards people, but she kept trying to keep her distance from Fang Huan.
She didn’t want gossip spreading through the hospital.
The young lady may not have money, but she didn’t lack it either, nor worship it.
Her job ant money wasn’t an issue.
Her parents only had her. They didn’t have many demands.
They only hoped she’d be safe and healthy.
Didn’t plan on marrying into a wealthy family.
"Dr. Qi, are you getting off work? I can give you a ride ho. I know your car broke down and was sent for repair; it’s inconvenient after work. I’ll take you, and tomorrow I can pick you up for work." Fang Huan, having finally gotten this opportunity, wasn’t about to let it slip by.
He really liked Qi Yuqing. When he first saw how stunning she was, he instinctively labeled her as just a pretty face.
A girl living off her looks.
He had seen plenty.
Since he ca from a good family background.
He had a lot of exposure.
Many pretty girls acted like flies to a fla when seeing him.
Would love to marry him on the spot.
Pretentiously flirting with him.
He had seen it all.
And beco numb to it.
So naturally, he assud Qi Yuqing was one of those.
But after spending ti with her, it was clear.
If Qi Yuqing was just a pretty face, many won would have to die.
This woman had a great brain, intelligent and quick-witted, quite capable.
Renowned in neurosurgery! Isn’t that impressive?
Also very enthusiastic and cheerful! Simply full of rits.
A perfect woman like her was a first for him.
Hence his heart was moved.
Relentlessly pursuing her with fervor.
But she didn’t acknowledge him at all.
Today, hearing she had been scolded by the Director, he later found out it was because Qi Yuqing stopped to help deliver a baby when she encountered a car accident, causing her car to need repairs.
Isn’t this a heaven-sent opportunity?
He eagerly rushed over.
Playing the gallant protector for once.
Hoping to attain his wish.
