âI know, youâre not weak.â Jiang Yanzhou explained, âbut they will dirty your hands.â
An unusual heartbeat emerged once again.
Like hurried and erratic drumbeats, without any rhythm.
Between the two of them, it was unclear whose it was.
Jiang Yanzhou distanced himself slightly, leaning down and his gaze, seemingly warm, brushed across her lips. When it was just a few centimeters away, it veered in a different direction. His breath unexpectedly landed on her earlobe.
âIs your heartbeat fast?â Jiang Yanzhou asked.
Lu Yang fell into silence, as if contemplating something. After a while, her restless mind responded with a soft âHmm.â
Jiang Yanzhou smiled and pursued, âIs it your heartbeat or mine?â
Lu Yang didnât answer.
He was sometimes like a seasoned hunter, sometimes like a fearless rookie, deep and unfathomable yet overflowing with expression.
Difficult to fathom completely.
Fortunately, he wouldnât harm her silly older brother.
Thinking of this, she didnât know if her brotherâs rehearsal had gone smoothly, which was truly worrying.
Lu Yang looked at the ground, sighing almost imperceptibly.
Suddenly, the man crouched down, slowly tilting his head up, looking up at her in a submissive posture.
He said, âLet me see your hand.â
Lu Yang lowered her eyes, and within her line of sight entered a pair of translucent amber eyes, freezing her expression for a brief moment.
Jiang Yanzhou patiently repeated, âLet me see your hand.â
As his words fell, noticing her gaze no longer evasive, he reached out and took her hand, holding it in his palm. His fingertips gently pressed against her pulse, barely making a sound.
The manâs fingertips were dry and warm, carefully and attentively examining her hand. The temperature and sensation seemed to travel through the surface of her skin, coursing hotly through her brainâs nerves, leaving her standing in place, stiff and dazed, as she lowered her gaze to look at him.
âYour recovery is good,â Jiang Yanzhou didnât release her hand, raising his head and smiling with a hint of ambiguity. âWhen youâre better, let me be your doctor.â
Lu Yang: âA doctor?â
Jiang Yanzhou playfully retorted with a smile, âDidnât you say I needed to see a specialist in menâs health?â
Lu Yang pursed her lips and said, âI was just giving you a suggestion.â
âSince it was your suggestion, it wouldnât make sense for anyone else to examine me. After all⦠â Jiang Yanzhou drawled, his tone full of meaning, âYou understand my body better than anyone.â
Lu Yang was speechless.
She didnât mind seeing a doctor. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
But she wasnât an expert in menâs health, nor did she have a deep understanding of it. With limited knowledge, she couldnât casually harm patients.
Their gazes intertwined and burned in the air.
Lu Yang withdrew her hand from his, naturally issuing a farewell. âThe time has come, you should leave. A good medical drama can promote social progress. I wish you a successful shoot.â
Jiang Yanzhou stood up and leaned closer to her neck, greedily breathing a few times before speaking in a low voice. âHmm, Iâm leaving. See you tonight.â Lu Yang responded, âAlright, goodbye.â
Two minutes passed, but he didnât move. Lu Yang felt that Jiang Yanzhou was truly strange.
Being used and manipulated by the two of them, she not only felt no anger but also felt he was constantly approaching her. She wasnât some calamitous beauty like Daji, so why was he so infatuated?
Jiang Yanzhou asked with a hint of amusement, âWhy are you looking at me like that?â
Lu Yang felt he was deliberately asking, âWhat do you think?â
Jiang Yanzhou narrowed his eyes slightly and said, âCanât bear to part with
Lu Yang was baffled.
There seemed to be an indescribable tacit understanding between the two of them. They could always breeze through certain situations lightly. Just like now, Jiang Yanzhou restrained his interested gaze and spoke softly, âIâm leaving. See you later.â
Lu Yang replied, âOkay.â
Downstairs, Zhao Yanshu sat bored in the driverâs seat, waiting. When he saw the figure, he opened the car door and got out. âWhy did it take so long to deliver something?â
Jiang Yanzhou asked, âSomething?â
Zhao Yanshu said, âDelivering a kid. Okay, donât be so nitpicky about the words. The point is, why did you take so long to come down?â
Before Jiang Yanzhou got into the car, he turned back and smiled, saying softly, âI went to pay my respects to the little ancestor.â
Confused, Zhao Yanshu asked, âWhat? Pay respects? Pay respects to what? Little ancestor?â
Jiang Yanzhou got into the car, and while Zhao Yanshu was still perplexed, he hurriedly got in as well, started the engine, and drove away.
Once Jiang Yanzhou had left, Lu Yang shifted her gaze to the envelope in her hand.
The words on the envelope were the same as last time, simple and straightforward: âFor LYâs Collection.â
She opened it, finding a sketch and a letter inside, just like before.
For some reason, Lu Yang frowned and felt a sense of unease.
She had casually mentioned a few things about herself and her brother, but he didnât ask further.. Was it genuine trust or had he discovered something?
