As soon as she moved, Zhang Ye woke up. He turned her over so she was facing him. Xia Ning closed her eyes, and he smiled, "What are you afraid of?"
Xia Ning pushed him away and got out of bed. "Who said I'm scared?"
She took a shower and came out. Zhang Ye was still in bed. He got up, completely naked.
Xia Ning turned her face away and cursed, "Pervert."
Zhang Ye couldn't help but say, "Look for my clothes, where are they?"
She looked around and found that the item wasn't on the sofa or the floor. Zhang Ye went to the bathroom and said, "You tore it off and threw it in the toilet."
After the two finished tidying up, Xia Ning left immediately. She looked like she hadn't slept well. She met up with Xu Lai and the others, had breakfast, and then went back to her room to catch up on sleep.
When Xia Ning woke up, it was already afternoon. Xu Lai and the others were about to return home. Xia Ning packed her luggage and prepared to go to the gate to find them.
As soon as she opened the door, she saw Zhang Ye waiting for her. Xia Ning ignored him completely. He stopped her, saying, "You slept with me, aren't you going to give me an explanation?"
Xia Ning sighed, "I'll just pretend I was bitten by a dog, and please stop bothering me, okay?"
Zhang Ye ignored her completely, took her suitcase directly, and held her hand with his other hand.
Xia Ning struggled, "Where are you taking me?"
Zhang Ye simply said, "You'll find out soon enough."
He took her directly to the county, a place Xia Ning had visited before. There happened to be a new housing development there, and the apartments had recently been handed over to residents.
Zhang Ye pressed the elevator button to go directly to the ninth floor. Xia Ning was still confused. After getting out of the elevator, he opened the door, grabbed her hand, and took her fingerprint.
Xia Ning tried to pull her hand away, but he held it firmly until the recording was finished.
Zhang Ye pulled her inside and said, "Take a look around, this is the house I bought for our wedding."
Xia Ning's eyes widened. "A wedding room? What does that have to do with me?"
Zhang Ye looked at her and said, "What do you think, mistress?"
Xia Ning shook her head. "I'm not."
Zhang Ye hugged her. "Xia Ning, I like you. Maybe it's not love right now. I remember once I was having dinner with a friend, and he asked me if I had ever considered getting married since I was still single at my age."
He continued, "I said no, not yet. At that time, I didn't know you. But after thinking about it carefully, I realized that if I had known you then, I would definitely have said yes."
Xia Ning opened her mouth as if to say something, but Zhang Ye seemed to have guessed her intention and quickly said, "Don't say anything yet, let me finish."
"I know I have a sharp tongue and am not romantic, but I hope you will give me a chance to prove myself. I will always be good to you."
Xia Ning pushed him away, and he thought his confession was going to fail again. But then Xia Ning punched him, saying, "You're really unromantic. What confession doesn't involve flowers?"
Zhang Ye's face lit up with joy. "You agreed?"
Xia Ning nodded. "Let's see how you perform first."
She kept this a secret for the time being, not telling Xu Lai immediately, thinking it wouldn't be too late to go public once things had settled down between them.
As the Lunar New Year approached, she learned from Xu Yan that Xu Lai had been beaten by Uncle Xu, and she was immediately extremely anxious.
She had known Xu Lai for so many years, and they were from the same village, so she knew a thing or two about Uncle Xu's character. He had a bad temper, and this time things were sure to end badly again.
She wanted to go to the county town, but she didn't have a car. Just then, Zhang Ye arrived and said, "I'll drive you there."
Xia Ning couldn't help but ask, "What about the infirmary? Don't you need to keep an eye on it?"
He said it was okay, "Don't worry, the hospital sent me an apprentice, I'll have him keep an eye on things."
She quickly arrived at Xu Lai's hotel and took her to get her wound bandaged.
Xia Ning was initially worried that Xu Lai might find out about her relationship with Zhang Ye, but fortunately, Xu Lai was preoccupied with her own affairs and didn't have time to ask her how she got there.
Xia Ning spent the afternoon and evening with Xu Lai, and wanted to stay with her, but Xu Lai refused. When she left the hotel, she saw Zhang Ye's car parked not far away.
Xia Ning couldn't help but say, "What are you doing here? You're wasting your time."
Zhang Ye comforted her, "It's okay, I was busy for a while this afternoon and came over after dinner."
The next day, Xia Ning planned to go and keep her company, but all she brought was a bag of clothes. When she asked, she found out that Zhao Qingyun had actually driven for more than ten hours to come back.
She knew then that the two of them would get together and stay together forever, so she decided not to interfere with her sister's love.
Another year passed, and as the year drew to a close, Zhang Ye was transferred back to the hospital. As his girlfriend, she was the last to know about it.
The two were discussing their engagement when this happened, and Xia Ning was furious.
Zhang Ye then said, "I was going to tell you, but I got busy and forgot. What, don't you want me to go back?"
Xia Ning knew that he was originally the head of the department, but he was chosen by the hospital to be a rural doctor, so he had no choice but to condescend to be here.
But she couldn't accept that he didn't tell her anything until the results came out, and she even heard about it from other people.
Upon hearing his words, she angrily replied, "Go away, let's break up."
Zhang Ye said incredulously, "Xia Ning, is this why you want to break up with me? Or is it because you were able to break up with your boyfriends of so many years so easily, so you care even less about me?"
Xia Ning thought he was completely crazy. "Get out of here. Is that all you care about? Then why did you get together with me in the first place?"
Zhang Ye nodded angrily, "Fine, fine, I'll leave. I won't get in your way."
Xu Lai knew about the two of them and tried to persuade Xia Ning, while Zhao Qingyun went to Zhang Ye's side.
I don't know what they said, but not long after, Zhang Ye came over to apologize. He was so sincere, it was like he was about to write a pledge.
With Xu Lai's mediation, the two finally made up.
They set their wedding date for October, during the National Day holiday. Xia Ning got married quite late; Yuanbao was already two years old.
Xia Ning came to Xu Lai specifically to ask her to lend her her son so he could be her flower boy.
Xu Lai was naturally happy to agree, "Ask him what he thinks. This little guy has a lot of ideas now."
Yuanbao always grants his godmother's requests, after all, it was his godfather Zhang Ye who bought him several toy cars and piled them up.
The weather was sunny on the day of the wedding. Xia Ning took her father's hand and walked step by step toward Zhang Ye. She once thought she would never believe in love again, but the man in front of her gave her a unique love again.
—The End—
