At lunchtime, Chen Jing ordered lunch, and everyone except Xie Leying gathered around the cardiac surgery desk to eat.
Ming Jiayi gently wiped her mouth, then looked at Bi Tingran and Yu Jianyan with some curiosity.
Zhang Dao scratched his head and looked at the two of them with a suspicious expression.
They usually start arguing as soon as they get together, what's going on today?
Mo Xing nudged Ming Jiayi and asked in a low voice, "Jiayi, why do I feel like the atmosphere is a bit heavy today? Why are Dr. Yu and Nurse Bi, those two chatterboxes, so quiet today?"
“Nurse Bi said she has a boyfriend,” Ming Jiayi replied in an extremely soft voice.
Yu Jianyan rummaged through the rice in his lunchbox, as if he had been thinking for a long time, before finally mustering up the courage to speak.
"Bi Tingran, is your boyfriend reliable? Don't end up with someone like me."
Bi Tingran's hand suddenly froze. She lowered her head, looking at the almost untouched meal, and said in a calm tone,
"You don't need to worry, there's no man in the world more unreliable than you."
"Oh, that's good." Yu Jianyan replied somewhat absentmindedly. "By the way, he's not a doctor, is he? Please don't date a doctor again, they're always busy day and night."
Bi Tingran's breathing suddenly became rapid. Ming Jiayi stared at Bi Tingran with concern, only to see... tears seemingly slowly falling into Bi Tingran's lunchbox...
Ming Jiayi took two tissues and gently covered Bi Tingran's face, then said in a serious tone,
"You've got some rice on your face, wipe it off. Be more careful next time you eat."
Bi Tingran pressed the paper tightly against her face, then raised her head and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "I'm going to the bathroom. Thank you."
"Mo Xing, take my makeup bag with you. I'll also go to the restroom to touch up my makeup," Ming Jiayi said earnestly.
"Okay, okay."
...
Ming Jiayi placed the makeup bag on the sink, then had Bi Tingran lean against it. She took out the cosmetics from the bag one by one and applied them to Bi Tingran's face.
“Crying won’t help. Since you like each other, you should be brave and take action. Sometimes, missing out means missing out for a lifetime,” Ming Jiayi said earnestly.
"There's no such thing as mutual affection. Didn't you see him this morning? He was practically bewitched by Xie Leying," Bi Tingran said indignantly.
"Then why has he been so distracted ever since he heard you have a boyfriend?" Ming Jiayi asked slowly.
That's because...
"Hmm? Why?" Ming Jiayi stopped applying makeup and looked at Bi Tingran.
“It’s definitely because he still likes you,” Mo Xing agreed earnestly. “I think Dr. Yu is such a straight man; he’s probably not sure how he feels right now. You should give him another nudge and just tell him that you and your boyfriend are planning to get married.”
"Sure." Ming Jiayi nodded with a thoughtful smile.
"I just told him I had a boyfriend when I was provoking him, and now you're saying you want to get married? Isn't that a bit inappropriate?" Bi Tingran asked hesitantly.
"No, we met through a blind date. We plan to get married first and fall in love later. It's perfectly reasonable," Mo Xing said earnestly.
“Indeed.” Ming Jiayi continued applying makeup to Bi Tingran. “Didn’t you just say that we can’t keep dragging this on? So it’s reasonable for you to say that.”
"What if he has already fallen for Xie Leying...?" Bi Tingran asked, looking somewhat worried.
"I don't think so," Ming Jiayi and Mo Xing answered in unison.
...
In the office at the same time
Zhang Dao moved to a different spot, sitting next to Yu Jianyan, and asked with a hint of gossip, "What's going on? Does our Sister Bi have a boyfriend?"
"Hmm," Yu Jianyan said expressionlessly as he stirred the food.
Zhang Dao shrugged, looking helpless as he retorted to Yu Jianyan.
"Come on, are you stupid? Look at yourself now. You haven't cared about her for a long time, and you're always arguing and cursing with her. Now you're getting anxious? What's the use of getting anxious? She's someone else's darling. Let me tell you, you deserve to be single."
Yu Jianyan glared fiercely at Zhang Dao, then wrapped his arms around Zhang Dao's neck without saying a word, forcing him to shut up.
"What are you doing? Are you angry because you're embarrassed?" Zhang Dao retorted stubbornly. "What's the use of hitting me? Go hit Sister Bi's boyfriend instead."
"Stop talking nonsense. So what if you have a wife? You're always babbling on and on. Who said I was angry? I'm just worried she'll meet the wrong person," Yu Jianyan weakly retorted.
Chen Jing and Jiang Yisong seemed to understand something. Chen Jing asked hesitantly, "So Dr. Yu has a crush on Nurse Bi?"
"Crush my foot! I don't like that tigress at all," Yu Jianyan retorted, her face flushing slightly.
“It’s definitely not a crush. After all, everyone in the hospital except him knows,” Zhang Daoli said confidently.
Yu Jianyan freed one hand and covered Zhang Dao's mouth, saying angrily, "Shut your mouth! If you keep babbling, I'll sew it up with a needle."
"So impressive? Does Nurse Bi know about it? The whole hospital knows, so why not just go for it?" Chen Jing chuckled, offering a friendly reminder.
Zhang Dao forcefully pried Yu Jianyan's hand away, determined to answer Chen Jing's question.
"He wouldn't dare, he's a coward. They were a couple in college, then broke up, you know... um."
Yu Jianyan pressed both hands tightly to Zhang Dao's mouth, then glared at him.
"I won't think you're mute if you don't speak. Besides, who's the coward? What, do you think you're so great?"
"Hey, Dr. Yu, why are you being so formal? Tell us, we're very discreet, we won't tell anyone," Chen Jing asked with a curious look.
Jiang Yisong looked up at Chen Jing, then replied leisurely, "We can record it with a camera. When it's broadcast, the whole world will know, and it won't count as something we said."
"Hey..." Yu Jianyan let go of Jiang Yisong's hand in a hurry, then ran over and took away Jiang Yisong's camera. "Don't do anything reckless."
Seeing this, Zhang Dao immediately spoke up, seizing the opportunity.
"Do you know why they broke up? Because they had a big fight, and then this guy ran off to the mountains to help out without thinking twice, and then he turned off his phone for a week."
Coincidentally, Bi Jie caught a bad cold at that time. Bi Jie and her roommate tried to call him but couldn't get through. They didn't know where he was. Then, Bi Jie got angry and sent him a text message to break up with him.
When this cowardly guy came back, he heard about what happened, but he didn't dare to apologize. Then the misunderstanding between them deepened and deepened.
Yu Jianyan glared at Zhang Dao with a deep look, "Why do you have so much to say? Are you trying to learn from that tigress?"
