âLittle sister-in-law, youâre overthinking it. I donât like drinking tea; I like drinking alcohol, all kinds of alcoholâI like them all!â Sizhe said with an implication.
Seeing the way Sizhe stubbornly argued, Jian Dan still felt a little uncomfortable inside.
After Sizhe leftâ¦
âYuanyuan, whatâs wrong with you? Why is your face so red?â Jian Dan asked knowingly.
âAh? Is it? Maybe itâs because the weather is too hot! Hehe~â she said, looking down, not daring to meet Jian Danâs eyes.
âIs it hot today? I didnât feel it at all,â Jian Dan continued.
âMaybe Iâm wearing too much! And I get hotter than most people!â Yuanyuan still wouldnât tell the truth.
âOh! So thatâs it!
By the way, the person who was just talking to me is the second young master of the Shang family, Shang Sizhe. You know him, right?â
âAh! IâIâve heard of himâ¦â Yuanyuan became noticeably more nervous at the mention of Sizheâs name.
âLet me tell you, there are loads of girls who like Sizhe in the hospital.â
âOh~ really?â Yuanyuanâs tone became increasingly unnatural.
âIsnât it? And itâs not only in the hospital; there are many outside too! After all, Sizhe is so outstanding and handsome, with a good build. You agree, right?â
âYes! Yes~â
âSo, you know~ a guy like that is in high demand. If you like him, you should make a move early. Otherwise, if someone else beats you to it, itâll be too late for regrets!â
Yuanyuan chose to remain silent at that momentâ¦
Jian Dan, watching Yuanyuanâs behavior, couldnât help but speak up, âYuanyuan, Iâve made myself quite clear, youâre not still pretending to be oblivious, are you?â
âJian, youâve noticed?â
âWhat do you think? Youâre so bad at lying!â
âIt seems like it!â
âYuanyuan, did you fall for him at first sight?â In Jian Danâs memory, Yuanyuan shouldnât have met Sizhe before.
âNot exactly! I knew him before!â Yuanyuan finally stopped hiding the truth and spoke up.
âYou knew each other before? Then why did you pretend not to know each other just now? Surely you two didnât have anyâ¦â Although Jian Dan didnât finish her sentence, Yuanyuan could understand the implication.
âNo, no! Itâs not what youâre thinking! I donât think he remembers me.â
âYuanyuan, can you please explain clearly?â Jian Dan was confused.
âWhen I was nineteen, my mom and I were in a car accident, and he was the one who saved us. I think he was still a medical student at the time. If he hadnât given my mom and me emergency treatment before the ambulance arrived, I donât know what would have happened!â
âYou didnât develop feelings for him then, did you?â
âI donât know. It was a vague feeling at the time, and I donât know if that was love,â Yuanyuan said, her voice getting softer.
âAnd you havenât seen him since then?â
âMhm!â
âHow did you feel when you saw him again this time?â
âI donât know, I just felt really nervous, didnât dare to look at him. I couldnât control the urge to look at him, and my heart would start beating wildly whenever I heard him speak.
I really donât know whatâs wrong with me!â Imagine that, she who was engaged, had never felt this way before.
âYuanyuan, Iâm afraid I have to inform you that youâve been bitten by the bug!â
âWhat do you mean?â
âIt means youâve fallen for him!
But~ the fact that youâve met again means that the story between you and him isnât over.
Sizhe is a good boy~ Yuanyuan, go for it! I support you!â
âSupport me with what?â Yuanyuan blushed and lowered her head.
âWhat do you mean support you with what? Let me tell you, if you donât make a move, and Sizhe gets snatched away by someone else, donât come crying to me!â
âBut⦠Iâm a girl!â
âSo what if youâre a girl? Havenât you heard the saying that a girl chasing a guy is separated by a sheer layer?
And happiness is something you have to fight for yourself!â
âJian, what you said seems to make sense!â
âItâs not just seeming to make sense, itâs very sensible!â
Yuanyuan bit her lower lip and fell into deep thoughtâ¦
