32 Chapter 32

◎Have you ever seen an orthopedic surgeon who is ascetic and selfless?◎

After going around in circles for ten years, he finally fell in love with his mortal enemy.

The belated realization made Yang Xueyi's scalp tingle.

In the past, Yang Xueyi would never have taken any action. After all, the high-ranking Ying Yun would never give her any good face.

But now that Ying Yun is in trouble, the gap between him and Yang Xueyi is not that big.

What's more, the relationship between Ying Yun and me has eased a lot, so it's not completely impossible if I work hard.

Yang Xueyi thought of Ying Yun's face, and felt that if she could really get Ying Yun, she would not lose out.

After much thought, Yang Xueyi decided to ask Qiao Qianqian, who had rich experience in love, for advice.

"Qianqian, how do you usually pursue boys?"

Unfortunately, Qiao Qianqian, who is an expert in love, can't help: "I won't pursue her. The love between us mature men and women is tacitly understood. Once we fall in love, we go to bed right away."

Yang Xueyi: "..."

She glanced at Yang Xueyi and said, "Why? Who do you like? You look like this, and you're still chasing him? Just beckon me, and the guy will come over, right?"

"It's not me!" Yang Xueyi retorted almost immediately and subconsciously. She cleared her throat. "It's just a friend of mine. She met a guy. He's quite hard to pursue. He's never been in a relationship before. And he doesn't seem like the type you described who just wants to sleep around. He's quite pure and unattached, the type who keeps his chastity for his beloved."

Qiao Qianqian curled her lips. "There haven't been any pure-hearted men in this world yet. Being pure-hearted and unselfish is just a personality trait used to deceive girls. The classic tactic is to create a white moonlight, creating the image of a deeply affectionate and loyal man. So many little girls rush in, thinking they can replace the white moonlight and completely conquer this man. After all, a man with a white moonlight is more challenging."

"If it weren't for the character setting, it would be even more frightening. It would probably be something like 'I have a disease.'"

“…”

"Look at Ying Yun. She looks like a beautiful lady, pure and unselfish, right? But that dance she had with Lin Zixian at the last dance was so exciting. It was obvious that she had ulterior motives towards her..."

This is getting more and more outrageous. It's just the performance effect of a tango dance.

Yang Xueyi was very sure of this: "Ying Yun is not that kind of person. I have known him for ten years. He does not have those worldly desires. In this respect, he is very upright. You are indeed slandering him a bit."

Besides being certain that Ying Yun didn't have that kind of feeling towards her, Yang Xueyi also knew that the style of An Xin that he liked was completely different from her own.

Unfortunately, Qiao Qianqian scoffed at this: "What do you know? People like Ying Yun usually seem to be upright and restrained, but when they let go, they become more and more playful."

"And have you ever heard of an orthopedic surgeon who's ascetic and selfless? Orthopedic surgeons are all very strong and have a lot of hormones. Orthopedic surgery is one of the most interesting departments in the hospital."

"..." Yang Xueyi decided to give up on learning from Qiao Qianqian's experience. The more she talked, the more nonsense she became.

It’s better to ask netizens.

It was also a coincidence that just as she had finished explaining her troubles, the other party started to send enthusiastic suggestions.

An Orange: [You've definitely asked the right person! My brother is exactly the type you're describing. I have plenty of experience!]

An Orange: [To pursue someone like this, you have to be proactive.]

An Orange: [My brother's first love followed this pattern. I heard that he was very repulsive to her at first and didn't treat her well, but she was very tolerant and actively pursued him in various ways!]

An Orange: [She looked passive, didn't she? Actually, she had my brother completely under her thumb. By the time I found out, he was completely screwed. He even forced me to give him advice on how to write a love letter! But after that woman got him, she just left him! Turns out it was all fake! It was all acting! Such a jerk! My brother actually defended her and refused to reveal her name. He really loves her!]

An Orange: [Anyway, for this kind of cool guy, you should show some concern and take the initiative! Be a sticky candy! Create all kinds of opportunities to get along with him!]

An Orange: [My signal is bad right now. I'll tell you more later. I'm about to board a plane. I'm taking advantage of the holiday to come back to China to see my brother. He's been through a lot of things lately. He was even dumped by his second girlfriend not long ago. What a miserable guy.]

Yang Xueyi was just about to praise Yiduchengzi for her brother's good relationship and caring about him so much, when Yiduchengzi continued -

[It's rare for him to be this miserable. If you don't see this kind of joke now, you won't see it again in the future!]

“…”

Yang Xueyi had just said goodbye to the other party when Ying Yun went home from get off work.

Yang Xueyi had never felt embarrassed in the past when she lived with Ying Yun for so many years, but ever since she developed unhealthy thoughts about Ying Yun, she couldn't be open and honest with him and felt guilty.

At this point, Ying Yun had already had dinner in the hospital cafeteria, so as usual, he would go straight back to his room after drinking water in the kitchen.

It’s never wrong to show Yingying Yun meticulous care and consideration!

Yang Xueyi took the initiative to pour warm water and handed it to Ying Yun.

Seeing Yang Xueyi's water cup, Ying Yun was stunned for a moment, then frowned slightly and looked at Yang Xueyi expressionlessly: "You don't know medical English again, how many hours do you want to ask me?"

"..." Yang Xueyi was a little embarrassed. "Why do you think I'm so utilitarian? Am I that kind of person?"

"I'm simply grateful for your patience in answering my questions. In my heart, you are as respected as a teacher. I thought you might be thirsty. I respect teachers very much, so I poured you a glass of water."

Ying Yun's expression was still a little suspicious, but he took the water anyway. After drinking it, he turned around and walked towards the room.

"Ying Yun! Wait a minute!"

Yang Xueyi was struggling internally, deciding to just go all out and ask directly if he wanted to be in a relationship.

But as soon as Ying Yun's eyelashes fluttered and his eyes looked at her casually, Yang Xueyi's courage suddenly retreated like a deserter.

It’s better to be reserved.

We cannot be impatient for success and must fight a protracted war.

"Oh, nothing, I just wanted to ask if you want to enjoy the moon. It's beautiful tonight."

As Yang Xueyi spoke, she pretended to open the curtains. She was about to brag about how big and round the moon was tonight, but when she looked up, she found that there was nothing in the dark night sky except thick clouds...

Ying Yun looked at her expressionlessly.

Yang Xueyi quickly closed the curtains again. "Oh, I just received a notice saying that there were too few people watching the moon, and the moon was unhappy, so the performance was canceled. I won't be coming."

She waved numbly at Ying Yun: "Go to sleep."

However, Yang Xueyi asked Ying Yun to leave, but Ying Yun refused. He folded his arms across his chest, leaning against the wall. His eyes gently met Yang Xueyi's, then quickly looked away: "Yang Xueyi, do you have anything to say?"

Under the warm light in the room, although Ying Yun didn't have any special expression, his face looked clear and lively. He was obviously a little tired after a day of work, but his tone was very patient.

At the junction of light and darkness, Ying Yun was effortlessly handsome, fully explaining Yang Xueyi's insane thoughts.

"I just wanted to thank you." Yang Xueyi lowered her eyes, avoiding eye contact. "That day at the wedding photography studio. I heard it. Thank you for defending me."

"Don't think too much." Ying Yun tilted his head, his tone dry and cold, "I'm not trying to defend you, it's just that your former colleague is too annoying."

Yang Xueyi didn't think too much about it at first. She just wanted to thank Ying Yun and hoped that a friendly conversation might arise. However, she didn't expect Ying Yun to be so impatient to clarify.

So what?

He was so eager to distance himself from me, as if he was afraid that I would cause unnecessary misunderstandings and be blamed on him.

The air was quiet, and Yang Xueyi's heart seemed to be floating on the waves.

As if if she didn't refute it the next second, Ying Yun's obsession would be exposed. In order to conceal her true intentions, and because of her sudden advantage and her competitive spirit, she waited for Yang Xueyi to react and blurted out the words -

"I'm sorry I used you as my boyfriend in a hurry this time. I won't do that again next time. I'll find someone a hundred times better than Zeng Lin, tall, rich and handsome. I'll bring my real boyfriend with me and slap them in the face with the truth."

“I didn’t think too much about it at the time. I just didn’t want to lose.”

Yang Xueyi cleared her throat and decided to go for it. She tested Ying Yun: "Weren't many of your friends rich? Among those from your international school, I remember there were quite a few who were good-looking and single. How about you introduce them to me?"

She raised her head slightly and stared at Ying Yun: "You don't mind if the good things don't flow to outsiders, do you, Ying Yun?"

"no."

Ying Yun's straightforward answer without any hesitation made Yang Xueyi's heart beat like a drum.

Although he was in a good mood just now, Ying Yun's expression now looked a little ugly. His face was gloomy and the corners of his lips were curved in an unpleasant way.

Does he care about himself a little bit...

Could it be that he also has some vague feelings towards himself?

So when it comes to being introduced to someone, you're instinctively reluctant and bothered?

But in the next second, Ying Yun's words broke Yang Xueyi's distracted mind.

He lowered his head and said in a calm tone, "After something happened in my family, they no longer have any contact with me."

Ying Yun glanced at Yang Xueyi and apologized with a bad look on his face: "It's not that I mind, but it really can't be done. Sorry."

oh.

That's why his expression was so ugly.

Yang Xueyi felt that she was a little funny. She didn't know what kind of one-man show she was performing, and she was secretly looking forward to something.

But she was still surprised by the behavior of Ying Yun's "friends": "But I've met some of them before, and they don't seem like that kind of people."

"You can know a person's face, but not his heart." Perhaps having suffered too many disparities in treatment, Ying Yun now appeared very calm. "Your intuition is inaccurate."

Yang Xueyi was now filled with righteous indignation. "How can you be so snobbish! Ying Yun, how do you make friends? Is everyone like this? There's not a single normal, good person?"

Ever since they met, Ying Yun had always been proud and rarely bowed his head. However, perhaps it was the poverty of life that truly tempered and changed him. At this moment, Ying Yun lowered his head and admitted generously without any psychological pressure -

"Back then, when you were young and ignorant, your vision wasn't very good. The people you met weren't that great."

"I'm not part of that circle anymore, and there's no suitable, reliable, tall, rich, or handsome man around me." With the family in decline, no one can be happy. Ying Yun looked a little uncomfortable. "I'll keep an eye out for you in the future."

Ying Yun's profile did not look reluctant at all, and he looked honest, frank and reliable. It seemed that Yang Xueyi's previous dislike for him was entirely a one-sided misunderstanding.

It was not until today that she realized that Ying Yun was actually a good person, but he just didn't have that kind of feeling towards her.

Yang Xueyi couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, and a slight sense of frustration rose up like bubbles in sparkling water.

I have lived with Ying Yun for ten years, but he has never even looked at me twice.

But on second thought, Ying Yun's attitude is at least friendly and supportive of me, which is why he would think of introducing me to someone and even be willing to help me keep an eye out for them. This is already a qualitative leap.

After all, in the past, Ying Yun would probably just sneer at himself in his heart and think he was daydreaming.

Recognition is the prerequisite for good feelings.

We are one step closer to getting Ying Yun!

In particular, Ying Yun seemed to care about Yang Xueyi.

"Do you really want to have a relationship? Didn't you say before that you should focus on your career?"

"Think about it carefully, career and love don't conflict." Yang Xueyi coughed and started to talk nonsense. "I have a serious sleep disorder. I've seen a doctor and tried almost all the methods recommended by other patients, but it doesn't work. Maybe falling in love will improve my mood and change my endocrine system, and maybe I won't suffer from insomnia anymore."

Unfortunately, Ying Yun didn't buy it. He scoffed softly, "Pseudoscience. How much can falling in love really help with insomnia?"

Ying Yun glanced at Yang Xueyi and asked, "How long have you been suffering from insomnia? Why is it so serious?"

“It started a year ago.”

Yang Xueyi started suffering from insomnia at her last job. She wasn't sure if it was due to work pressure, Li Liming's harassment, Tang Qi's bullying, or perhaps all of the above.

I thought that quitting would be enough, but now things are still the same.

She sighed, "Insomnia is so painful. I'm willing to try anything to solve it."

Ying Yun seemed to be overwhelmed by his occupational disease as a doctor. Even though he was crossing over, he was still concerned about Yang Xueyi's insomnia: "Have you tried exercising?"

Why haven't you tried it?

"Qianqian, I played flag football with a few of her friends. It was so tiring. I did sleep better after playing, but I don't have the time to play football every day. I don't have the energy to play a game every day."

In short, it is only treating the symptoms and not the root cause.

Ying Yun pursed his lips and said, "I'll ask my colleagues in the sleep disorders department for you. Dating may not necessarily relieve insomnia. There's no need to rush into it for this reason."

Yang Xueyi didn't expect Ying Yun to cure her insomnia, but she still felt very touched by Ying Yun's caring attitude.

Perhaps because she was in a good mood, she slept quite well that night.

**

But unlike Yang Xueyi, Ying Yun did not sleep well that night.

Ying Yun has been in a bad mood recently. Perhaps his psychological restlessness has finally affected his physiology. His body has become very agitated and sometimes he even needs to take two cold showers a day.

Mostly it's just excess energy.

For this purpose, Ying Yun made an appointment with some friends to play basketball, and the ones he made an appointment with were the friends that Yang Xueyi mentioned being interested in.

It’s just that I have been keeping in touch with my old friends normally, and we were even going to play ball together tomorrow, but when the words came to my lips, my friends turned into snobs and broke up with me.

Ying Yun didn't know what was wrong with him recently. It was as if he had been possessed by a spell, and he couldn't even explain his behavior.

There was a dinner party in the department not long ago. There was no strict requirement to drink alcohol, and Ying Yun originally planned to use sparkling water instead. However, when raising the glass, he took the wine for some reason.

He felt like he was simply sick.

It would have been fine if he just lived in Yang Xueyi's house and pretended to be poor, but he even inexplicably squeezed out time from his busy schedule to accompany Yang Xueyi to take wedding photos, working himself to death to earn a few hundred dollars.

However, Ying Yun was really worried if he didn't go.

Yang Xueyi looks like that and has no self-awareness at all. She also chose a wedding dress that shows off her figure too much. Wedding photos mostly require intimate poses. If the male model she works with has a bad character, she doesn't know how badly she will be harassed and taken advantage of.

There is no doubt that Aunt Yang has taken great care of Ying Yun for more than ten years. Ying Yun's sense of responsibility makes it impossible for him to turn a blind eye to allowing Yang Xueyi to be taken advantage of by others.

So he naturally didn't go because of Yang Xueyi, but mainly to repay Aunt Yang.

It’s not a bad idea to drink some wine, otherwise I would get a headache seeing Yang Xueyi, the troublemaker.

What's more, you don't have to explain why your face and ears are red when taking wedding photos.

After all, he drank alcohol, so this is normal.

His main reason was that he didn't want to cause unnecessary misunderstandings to Yang Xueyi, and didn't want her to think that he had any intentions towards her. He was very grateful to Aunt Yang and didn't want to make things awkward for all parties.

Ying Yun is 28 years old this year. He is not the gullible 18-year-old he used to be. He will not do stupid things like the 18-year-old he did before.

Yang Xueyi was indeed not as bad as he thought, but this woman was still as realistic as ever.

She directly bypassed Ying Yun and shamelessly asked Ying Yun to introduce a tall, rich and handsome friend to her.

Have you ever considered your own feelings? Just exclude him from the category of tall, rich and handsome.

Just because they thought Ying Yun was poor? No longer considered tall, rich, and handsome? So he was eliminated? He was even disqualified from the competition?

Even if his family financial situation really plummeted as rumored by the outside world, surgeon is a very promising job and he will be considered a high-income earner in the future. How can he not be considered tall, rich and handsome?

Ying Yun was very angry, but after tossing and turning in bed, he didn't know what he was angry about.

It is normal for people to strive for higher positions and want to find someone tall, rich and handsome.

Yang Xueyi just hated me the same way for the past ten years. Even after I was in trouble, she helped me out of sympathy, but it was still far from the level of liking me. It was not surprising that she excluded me.

Of course, Ying Yun didn't care whether she liked him or not.

The main reason for being so angry is because of my competitive spirit.

Why was I completely excluded from the mate selection criteria? Am I any worse than my friends?

Didn't Yang Xueyi say that herself? Girls these days are more interested in looks than money when it comes to relationships. She even said she asks for the most when she's begging.

So Yang Xueyi really hasn't changed at all. Everything she said was a lie.

Liar.

As for the original intention of falling in love just because of insomnia, it is too naive.

Totally immature.

If insomnia is severe, it should be treated first. It is simply a fantasy to think that love can solve insomnia.

What's more, love is not always a good experience. The excitement, nervousness, uneasiness and tension of first love, apart from preventing people from sleeping well, have no other good side effects.

The emotional fluctuations caused by breakups and arguments are not only not conducive to a good sleep, but will only increase psychological stress, increase anxiety, and cause more serious insomnia.

Ying Yun is a professional doctor. Even though he does not specialize in sleep disorders, all medicine is interconnected.

Yang Xueyi is only 25 years old. There is no need to rush into a relationship. The most urgent thing is to cure her insomnia first.

So I won’t introduce my friends to her for the time being. It’s entirely for her own good. After all, introducing the uncertainty of love during treatment will make the treatment process unpredictable and uncontrollable.

For this reason, Ying Yun had no choice but to tell some white lies.

But I am a doctor, and a doctor has a kind heart. This is the responsibility of this profession.

【Author’s words】

Ying Yun's playing style gradually became distorted, and his friends' reputations were affected hhh

Two very proud and stubborn babies
