Chen Xiaoxi stood at the corner of the corridor.
Looking ahead at the two people who were about to disappear from sight.
Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the pergola, bathing them in its glow.
The two figures were edged with dazzling gold.
But to Chen Xiaoxi, these rays of light were like thorns, piercing her eyes.
She gritted her teeth, counting her wildly rising and falling breaths, the bitterness churning in her chest almost bursting out of her throat.
"Lu Qingzhou!"
This shout carried the grievances and resentment that had been building up in Chen Xiaoxi's heart.
It was more like a rusty pair of scissors, dripping with anger, that cruelly severed all of Lu Qingzhou's hopes.
His body stiffened, as if he had been frozen in place, and he even forgot to breathe, only the sound of his heart pounding in his chest could be heard.
Even Leng Yue beside him could feel his muscles suddenly stiffen and his heart pounding frantically.
'Oh no, we've been found out!'
Leng Yue glanced at him, who stood frozen in place, then at Chen Xiaoxi, who was approaching step by step.
Even a fool would have noticed something was amiss at this point.
"Lu Qingzhou, this time they should call you, right? There shouldn't be anyone here with the same name as you!"
Faced with Leng Yue's two soul-searching questions, Lu Qingzhou could only smile awkwardly and grin.
He mechanically turned around and saw Chen Xiaoxi approaching step by step in seven-centimeter high heels. Her skirt swayed gently with her steps, but it couldn't hide the flames dancing in her eyes.
Chen Xiaoxi walked up to the two of them, raised her hand, and pulled off Lu Qingzhou's mask.
"Is it really you?"
Her tone was full of complaint.
Lu Qingzhou gave an awkward smile and raised her hand in greeting, "Xiaoxi, it's been a long time."
Lu Qingzhou greeted them with a dry laugh, but was interrupted by a sudden pain in her waist.
Chen Xiaoxi did not respond.
His fingernails dug into his flesh through his shirt, causing him to gasp in pain: "Oh, what's wrong? You recognize me now? Weren't you pretending not to know me just now?"
Her gaze swept over Leng Yue's hand linked with Lu Qingzhou's, and she suddenly smiled, but the smile didn't reach her eyes; instead, her eyes reddened unnaturally.
As a woman, Leng Yue could clearly sense that the moment Chen Xiaoxi saw her, something in her heart seemed to shatter.
Could this woman like Lu Qingzhou?
She instinctively tightened her arms, met Chen Xiaoxi's gaze, and gently squeezed her fingertips in his palm: "My name is Leng Yue, and I'm his girlfriend."
Chen Xiaoxi's nails almost dug into her palms, yet she maintained an elegant curve: "My name is Chen Xiaoxi, and I'm Lu Qingzhou's classmate."
Her gaze swept over Leng Yue's smooth ring finger, and she suddenly asked, "Did you meet him on a blind date?"
Leng Yue was slightly taken aback, then replied, "No, we...we fell in love on our own."
Chen Xiaoxi simply said "Oh," without delving deeper into the matter.
He then casually glanced at the medical report in Leng Yue's hand.
"You've come to the clinic. Where do you feel unwell?"
Lu Qingzhou looked somewhat embarrassed and stammered, unable to utter a single word.
Chen Xiaoxi took the medical record and examination report from Leng Yue.
Her gaze swept over the diagnosis of "reproductive system conditioning," and she suddenly covered her mouth and chuckled.
The laughter carried a mix of mockery and bitterness: "You've come to see a urologist, huh?"
Lu Qingzhou looked embarrassed. "It's just a minor problem, nothing serious."
Leng Yue, standing to the side, muttered under her breath, "A month of rest isn't a big problem, is it?"
Lu Qingzhou's face flushed red, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. "Damn it, Yueyue, how can you be so clueless? Are you trying to embarrass me enough?"
He sighed inwardly and glared at Leng Yue.
"A month of rest? What happened?"
Upon hearing Leng Yue's words, Chen Xiaoxi suddenly stopped smiling, and her eyes became sharp as knives.
Lu Qingzhou quickly waved his hand, "It's nothing, don't listen to her nonsense, it's just a small problem."
"This concerns Leng Yue's future happiness, so we can't be careless. Come to my office, and I'll examine you personally."
After saying that,
Ignoring Lu Qingzhou's struggles, she pulled him toward her office.
"What? You want me to get checked? No... I won't go, I absolutely won't go."
Lu Qingzhou struggled to leave.
Chen Xiaoxi held onto his arm tightly and wouldn't let go.
Lu Qingzhou was internally cursing.
How did things turn out this way?
The three arrived at the office door. Chen Xiaoxi pushed the door open, threw Lu Qingzhou into the consultation room, and turned around to close the door.
Inside the consultation room,
The smell of disinfectant grew stronger inside.
Chen Xiaoxi lowered her eyes and stared at Lu Qingzhou's reddened ear tips, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and turned around to pick up the white coat hanging on the coat rack and put it on.
Lu Qingzhou looked miserable. "Xiaoxi, it's not necessary. I'm in the men's health department. Your colleague already examined me. You don't need to examine me again!"
Chen Xiaoxi said seriously, "I majored in andrology at medical school. Stop talking nonsense and come with me into the treatment room."
Lu Qingzhou stood still, refusing to go inside no matter what.
Damn, how embarrassing!
Chen Xiaoxi suddenly turned to look at Leng Yue, who was standing frozen at the door, her voice as cold and calm as ice: "Miss Leng Yue, if you want him to recover sooner, some examination procedures must be strictly followed. I think you should know what to do."
Leng Yue bit her lower lip and hesitated for a moment, then forcefully pushed Lu Qingzhou's back, causing him to stagger into the cubicle:
"Listen to Miss Chen, go inside quickly."
The moment the treatment room door slammed shut...
Lu Qingzhou pressed his back against the cold door panel, his Adam's apple bobbing with difficulty.
