Chapter 200
On their sixth wedding anniversary, the little Yoyo, who was still asleep, was packed up and put on a plane to fly to Maldives to start this year's honeymoon trip.
After the plane entered a stable flight, Shi Ye took out his computer and began to organize the data for the thesis.
"What to drink?"
The flight attendant began the cabin service. Jiang Yubai, also known as Xiaoyu, who was sitting outside Shi Ye, tapped his desk with his finger.
Shi Ye raised his head from the computer, looked past Jiang Yubai and said politely to the stewardess with a smile, "Water, thank you."
Jiang Yubai glanced at Shi Ye, and after the flight attendant left the rows, he crossed his arms, snorted, and whispered, "Shi Ye, you actually flirted with the flight attendant. I'm going to tell my sister later."
Jiang Zhinian and Youyou were arranged by Shi Ye to stay in the first class cabin. After all, the flight time was too long and it would be more comfortable to lie flat. As for the two men, Shi Ye and Jiang Yubai, it didn't matter. Adhering to the principle of thriftiness, Shi Ye booked economy class for them.
"It's up to you, but could you be quiet now?" Shi Ye looked calm, his eyes still fixed on the computer screen, focused and serious.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with smiling. He believed that people who provided services to him or to whom he was providing services needed to be given an appropriate smile in a friendly manner. This was what Jiang Zhinian repeatedly emphasized to him on his first day in the outpatient clinic. No matter how disgusted he felt, he must remain polite. He practiced it for a while and found it to be very effective, firmly ranking first in their hospital's "Smiling Service with 0 Complaints" list.
Therefore, this social behavior that has been verified by his practice has been maintained.
Seeing that Shi Ye didn't even frown, Jiang Yubai let out a bored sigh and leaned back in his chair, his face full of the frustration of the long flight.
He and Shi Ye were both tall and had long legs, and the economy class cabin was narrow, so he was not comfortable sitting there. But as a "Dehua" who was also helping to look after the children so that the young couple could go on their honeymoon, he was very conscious and did not complain or ask for an upgrade. Instead, he took out a computer from his backpack and started typing code with lifeless eyes, working hard to achieve financial independence as soon as possible.
The silence between the two was so great that only the gentle tapping of keyboards could be heard. In fact, from this perspective, Shi Ye's strategy of booking economy class for them was quite wise. After all, the two high rollers would not lie down even if they went to first class, so there was no need to waste money.
When the plane was about to land, the flight attendant reminded us to put away the small table and turn off electronic devices. After Jiang Yubai had packed up, he raised his hand stiffly and pinched his shoulder blades, glancing at Shi Ye beside him.
In fact, if we really talk about "competence", Jiang Yubai believes that he cannot be as competitive as Shi Ye. During the entire flight, he would occasionally daydream and play with his mobile phone to rest. As for Shi Ye, except for eating, drinking water and going to the bathroom, he was basically writing and reading papers, and occasionally studying some surgical videos that he had downloaded in advance.
Jiang Yubai sat next to him, watching Shi Ye enjoying the video of blood and flesh flying everywhere while eating the meat in the lunch box without changing his expression. It felt a bit...subtle.
However, Jiang Yubai said he has become accustomed to this kind of "humanoid robot" that can calculate every node of life with incredible precision and exaggerated efficiency.
A few years ago, Shi Ye successfully graduated with a doctorate. Because he attended an eight-year medical school that integrated regular training, he was exempted from regular training and became an attending physician directly after graduation. After that, he spent another two years non-stop to participate in specialized training in cardiac surgery. During this period, he also published three highly valuable SCI papers, which directly led to his being hired as an associate chief physician at the age of 30 like riding a rocket. He became a top topic figure in the hospital, envied by everyone, and enjoyed great glory.
In addition to his strong scientific research capabilities, Shi Ye is also quite famous in the surgical field. His scalpel is as steady as a robotic arm. It is said that some hospitals in other places have called to ask if they can go to the local area to exchange surgical experience and perform flying scalpels. However, Shi Ye rejected them all with the excuse that his children are still young and need care, which everyone thinks is ridiculous.
Jiang Yubai found it hard to imagine how such a fast-running machine could balance life and work. At least he had never heard Jiang Zhinian complain about Shi Ye.
The plane landed smoothly, and the long flight ended. Even the energetic boy could not bear it. Jiang Yubai closed his eyes and began to twist his neck gently. When he turned around, he found that Shi Ye, who had packed up his things and stood up, still had a calm expression and did not look tired at all.
It turns out that men who can become surgeons are quite something.
After the first-class passengers got off the plane, Shi Ye and Jiang Yubai also followed the crowd out.
When passing the plane exit, a sweet greeting suddenly sounded in his ears. Jiang Yubai subconsciously looked up and saw a flight attendant quickly stuffing a note into Shi Ye's hand.
And then... Shi Ye accepted it!!!
Jiang Yubai: “???”
He frowned, his expression unconsciously showing a hint of annoyance and ferocity. Considering that the plane could not stop at the gate, he temporarily suppressed his emotions and calmly followed Shi Ye out of the cabin.
When passing by the corridor, he was about to question Shi Ye's meaning and why he accepted a note that obviously had a special meaning. However, before he could open his mouth, Shi Ye turned around and stuffed the note into his hand with extremely fast speed.
"Help me take care of it, thank you." His tone was calm and his instructions were very natural.
Jiang Yubai: "..."
What a sinister man!!!
"Why would you accept it if you don't want to?" Jiang Yubai didn't understand.
"Be polite." Shi Ye said frankly, with a face full of self-righteousness.
Jiang Yubai: “???”
The two walked out of the corridor bridge. Jiang Zhinian, who was waiting at the exit with Yoyo, called out to them and waved happily.
Jiang Yubai quickly shut up and stuffed the note into his pocket to prevent Jiang Zhinian from feeling uncomfortable if she knew. He was about to say hello, but Shi Ye beside him confidently stuffed his carry-on suitcase into Jiang Yubai's hands, then strode towards Jiang Zhinian with the crowd, opened his arms to hold her in his arms, and kissed the top of her head.
"I miss you." In fact, we were only apart for a few hours.
Yoyo, who had just woken up and was left aside by her father, was not angry. When she saw Jiang Yubai, she ran over, rubbing her eyes and calling her "uncle" for a hug.
Jiang Yubai crouched down, picked up Youyou with one hand, and let her sit on his thinly muscled arm. He looked like a 1.9-meter-tall cool guy with a cold face taking care of a cute kid, which made several girls who passed by look back at him frequently.
"That boy looks so cool."
"The little girl in his arms is so cute too. Is she mixed-race?"
"Is that boy the dad? He looks so young."
"They should be older brothers, siblings with a big age gap, babysitting for loving parents, cool guy and cute girl or something."
Jiang Yubai, who had been demoted for no reason, rolled his eyes, pushed his suitcase with one hand, and pretended not to hear the discussions around him as he walked towards Jiang Zhinian. When he walked behind him, Shi Ye seemed to have not noticed Jiang Yubai's expression of wanting to say hello. He put his arm around Jiang Zhinian's waist and walked forward as if no one was around: "Yoyo, were you good on the plane?"
Jiang Yubai: "..."
Jiang Zhinian smiled helplessly and decided to coax Shi Ye first: "Yeah, she's very well behaved. She watches cartoons, listens to stories, draws, plays with toys, eats, and sleeps by herself. She doesn't disturb others."
Although Yoyo, who is almost 6 years old, is usually very lively and playful, she is very obedient when she needs to be well behaved. She can calm down and entertain herself, and Jiang Zhinian does not need to spend any energy to take care of her.
"What about you? Does your waist still hurt?" Shi Ye gently pressed Jiang Zhinian's lower back and whispered in her ear.
Jiang Zhinian felt a little itchy and embarrassed, so she gently pushed Shi Ye who was hugging her too tightly: "It doesn't hurt anymore, I took Youyou to sleep for a while."
In fact, if she hadn't brought Yoyo with her, she felt there was no need to fly first class. It was too expensive. It would be better to sit with Shi Ye and sleep on his shoulder.
But after becoming a parent, she always wanted to give her children the best within her ability. She was reluctant to let Youyou sit with them for such a long time, so when Shi Ye suggested that she and Youyou sit in first class, she gritted her teeth and agreed.
"When you come back, why don't you take Yoyo to first class?"
Shi Ye held the person in his arms, unwilling to let go: "No need, I'm used to sitting in the outpatient clinic."
The two of them were chatting sweetly together. Jiang Yubai followed behind and pinched Youyou's face, looking disgusted at the two people's clingy look: "Let's go, poor little thing, you will follow your uncle from now on."
"I'm not a poor little thing, I'm a cute little thing!"
Jiang Yubai coaxed, "Okay, little cutie, let's go faster. We don't need them anymore."
…
After arriving in Male, you have to stay for one night and take a speedboat to the island early the next morning. Jiang Zhinian originally wanted to choose an island that can be reached by seaplane, but Shi Ye used data analysis to show that the safety factor of seaplane is not very high, and successfully persuaded Jiang Zhinian to give up the idea of trying seaplane.
The hotel was not luxurious at night, but there was a beautiful beach opposite the hotel, and it would be beautiful to watch the sunrise in the morning. They booked a family suite with two separate rooms so they would not disturb each other.
Yoyo was supposed to sleep between Jiang Zhinian and Shi Ye at night, but the little kid had a bad sleeping posture and turned sideways while sleeping, kicking Shi Ye's face with his feet.
The couple sat up with sleepy faces. Jiang Zhinian looked at Shi Ye with pity: "Why don't you go sleep with Xiaoyu? His bed is also 1.8 meters long."
Shi Ye refused coldly: "No need."
He looked around, considering whether to make a bed on the floor, or simply stay awake and work on his paper all night.
Jiang Zhinian thought for a moment, then moved Youyou sideways to the side of the bed and said, "Sleep like this. You can lean a little sideways."
She lay in the middle, separating Youyou and Shiye. Miraculously, Youyou only kicked Shiye and didn't bother Jiang Zhinian at all. Instead, she liked to snuggle in her arms, like a little animal, and smell her scent.
Shi Ye nodded in agreement. He was too tall and the bed was only 1.8 meters wide. If he slept sideways, part of the bed would be beyond his reach. But if he slept at an angle, it should be fine.
The two turned off the lights and lay down. Jiang Zhinian lay on her side facing Youyou, stretched out her hands to hold the little baby in her arms. Just as she closed her eyes and was about to fall asleep, she felt someone hugging her waist, and then a hot body pressed against her back.
"Shi Ye?"
"It's okay, go to sleep."
Jiang Zhinian raised her hand and gently touched the back of Shi Ye's hand on her waist: "There are cribs in the hotel on the island."
Then you can let Youyou sleep alone.
Speaking of which, she and Shi Ye have been sleeping together all these years. Even after Youyou was born, they basically never slept in separate beds, except when Shi Ye occasionally needed to work the night shift, Youyou would hold her little pillow and sleep with Jiang Zhinian.
Jiang Zhinian had long been accustomed to the warmth and smell of Shi Ye's body when he held her in his arms. It was an infatuated sense of security, and she felt as if she was particularly dependent on Shi Ye.
After Shi Ye heard what she said, he chuckled and kissed the area just below Jiang Zhinian's earlobe: "Okay."
…
The speedboat trip to the island was scheduled for noon the next day. After finishing the buffet breakfast arranged by the hotel, the group went for a walk on the beach outside the hotel.
Jiang Yubai accompanied Youyou in digging sand on the beach. Although there was a big age gap between the two, they could play together when they were childish. They were very immersed in digging the moat together with the sand-digging tools provided by the hotel.
After Shi Ye confirmed that there were no dangerous creatures near the beach, he pulled Jiang Zhinian forward and took a walk together along the shade of the trees.
"Shi Ye, don't you think Male is actually very beautiful? Even if you don't go to the island, it's nice to come here and play." This piece of beach is white and very beautiful. The coastline not far away is also blue as if it has been filtered. It sparkles in the sun, like a dream.
She couldn't even imagine how beautiful the island would have to be to make her feel that spending such a huge amount of money was worthwhile.
Shi Ye put his arm around her shoulders and said with a smile, "Just think of it as adding to your life experience."
Jiang Zhinian thought about it and felt that it made sense, just like if she hadn’t come to Male for the Maldives, she wouldn’t have known that this place was actually very beautiful.
The two walked for a while. Jiang Zhinian wanted to walk barefoot on the beach, but Shi Ye disagreed: "No one takes care of this beach. There might be broken shells on it, which will scratch your feet."
"Oh." Jiang Zhinian had no problem being controlled by Shi Ye. She was used to listening to Shi Ye anyway. She looked around and squatted down to pick up a shell. Suddenly, she screamed, "Shi Ye, look, a hermit crab."
It was her first time seeing a live hermit crab, it was amazing.
Shi Ye squatted beside her and watched for a while: "It's changing its shell."
Hermit crabs will change into different new shells according to their body growth. Some people who raise hermit crabs at home will buy a lot of cute little snails just to enjoy the surprise of the hermit crabs changing their shells.
"What about the shell it shed?"
"There will be smaller hermit crabs carrying them away."
Jiang Zhinian imagined that scene and felt soft in his heart.
"Do you want to let Youyou come and take a look?" When encountering interesting things, Jiang Zhinian always wants to share them with children.
Shi Ye refused coldly: "No."
Little Yoyo wants to raise anything he sees. Even when he sees a king crab at the supermarket, he wants to buy one to raise. Shi Ye doesn't want to waste time on such things as coaxing a child.
Jiang Zhinian said "Okay", but she still felt a little regretful. She knew what Shi Ye was worried about, but after becoming a mother, her love for Youyou overflowed to a terrible level. She always wanted to fulfill all of Youyou's wishes like a wishing elf.
But Shi Ye will be much calmer.
It turns out that pregnancy is the bond that establishes an emotional relationship between a woman and her child, but men are born lacking this link and lose the possibility of being controlled by hormones.
