"Yes, I'm calling you, comrade. Can I ask you about someone?"
The woman speaking was none other than Wang Jingjing. The morning after her mother, Wen Mei, stopped her, she slipped out of the house with her suitcase while her family wasn't looking.
He took a train and then a shuttle bus to Hongxing Machinery Factory to find his elder brother, Fu Jinheng.
"I can't guarantee I know them."
Song Lan responded.
"It's nothing, I was just asking. If you don't know, I'll ask someone else."
Wang Jingjing waved her hand, indicating that she didn't care. Then she said, "Do you know Fu Jinheng? He's a doctor at this hospital. I'm his sister."
My God! There are such beautiful girls in the world!
If she were a gay man, she would definitely be captivated by the girl in front of her. No, she is a girl and she is so captivated that she doesn't want to look away. She wonders if the girl has a boyfriend. If she doesn't, she really hopes that such a beautiful girl can be her sister-in-law!
"So the comrade was looking for Dr. Fu, who is currently seeing patients."
Song Lan replied, but found the other person remained silent for a long time, which she found strange. When she realized that the other person was staring at her in a daze, she raised her voice slightly: "Comrade, do you need me to take you to see Dr. Fu?"
"Oh? Okay, okay!"
Coming to her senses, Wang Jingjing nodded with a smile and repeatedly thanked Song Lan.
"You're welcome."
Song Lan walked ahead and led Wang Jingjing to the door of Fu Jinheng's office. She said, "Dr. Fu is busy seeing patients. Please sit on this bench and wait for a moment." The bench was placed against the wall so that patients waiting for their appointments could sit down and rest.
"Okay, thank you!"
Wang Jingjing thanked them again.
Song Lan shook her head, indicating that it was nothing.
Just as she turned to leave, Wang Jingjing asked, "Comrade, my name is Wang Jingjing, what's your name?"
Stopping in her tracks, Song Lan said, "My surname is Song."
After a moment's hesitation, she added, "Song Lan, that's my name. Goodbye." With that, Song Lan withdrew her gaze from the other woman and walked away.
Wang Jingjing looked like a lovesick fool, her gaze following the slender, graceful figure as she walked away, her eyes filled with reluctance.
"She looks like a fairy, has such a beautiful voice, and even her name is auspicious. I wonder if my silly brother will be lucky enough to marry her as my sister-in-law..."
Muttering to herself, Wang Jingjing was unaware that Fu Jinheng was already standing beside her.
Having just finished seeing a patient, Fu Jinheng assumed the person sitting on the bench was also there for a consultation. However, upon closer inspection, Fu Jinheng immediately frowned.
What are you doing here?
He selectively forgot the words Wang Jingjing had just muttered.
"elder brother!"
Wang Jingjing stood up, grinned at Fu Jinheng, and said, "I missed you, so I came to see you. Aren't you welcome?"
Do you think I'd believe that?
Fu Jinheng turned and walked into the office.
Wang Jingjing followed behind, carrying her suitcase like a sycophant.
"Whether you believe it or not, I'm here to see you, so you can't send me away."
After putting down her suitcase, Wang Jingjing found a seat and asked curiously, "Brother, there's a nurse at your hospital who looks like a fairy. Does she have a boyfriend?"
"What did you say?"
Fu Jinheng frowned slightly, seemingly puzzled, but in reality, he knew very well which one Wang Jingjing was referring to.
"Brother, you're not pretending to be confused, are you? Nurse Song, I'm talking about Nurse Song Lan from your hospital. Now can you tell me if she has a boyfriend?"
In Wang Jingjing's opinion, Fu Jinheng was definitely faking it!
"No." Hearing Fu Jinheng say this, Wang Jingjing immediately became happy. Unexpectedly, Fu Jinheng added, "Nurse Song has a husband."
"Brother, are you sure you're not playing a joke on me?"
Wang Jingjing's eyes were full of resentment: "Couldn't they just say it directly? Why did they have to make such a fuss?!" She didn't have a boyfriend, but she had a husband. How could she not know that her silly older brother had such a perverse sense of humor?
Don't you feel guilty for teasing your younger sister?
Fu Jinheng didn't answer. He continued with his previous question, his face serious: "Tell me, what exactly are you doing here?"
"You absolutely have to tell me?"
Wang Jingjing struggled with a pained expression.
"If you don't tell me, you'd better go back to the capital right now!"
Fu Jinheng's tone left no room for argument.
"I'll talk, I'll talk, okay?!"
Wang Jingjing knew she couldn't get away with it. She remained silent for a moment, avoiding Fu Jinheng's piercing gaze, and said softly, "I... I just wanted to see how Brother Xiao was doing. Really, I just wanted to take a look. As long as I know Brother Xiao and his family are alright, I'll go back."
"Brother Xiao?"
Fu Jinheng couldn't think of which one it was for a moment.
"It's Brother Xiao from the Xiao family in our compound. He's about the same age as you, but you prefer to be alone, so you probably don't know Brother Xiao very well."
Wang Jingjing didn't see anything unusual on Fu Jinheng's face, and couldn't help but continue, "Brother Xiao, Brother Chen from the Chen family, and Zhao Yunzhen from the Zhao family, the three of them are friends and are very famous in our compound. Just like you, they are the kind of children that adults talk about."
"I don't remember."
Fu Jinheng was indeed a loner in the compound. Before he went to university, he would stay in his room after school and hardly interact with other children his age in the compound. As for the reason, perhaps he simply didn't want to.
After all, he and his sister were the burdens their mother brought into the Wang family, and the Wang family's real eldest son didn't like their mother and siblings at all. Knowing that he was living under someone else's roof, Fu Jinheng probably didn't want to make things difficult for his biological mother, so he tried to minimize his presence in his stepfather's house and didn't interact with other children his age in the compound, so as not to upset his stepfather's son.
Do you know where he is?
“I overheard Chen Shu talking to our silly younger brother at home, saying that Brother Xiao’s family has settled down in a village in Shisong Brigade here.”
"What good will it do you if you go and meet them? Aren't you worried about causing them trouble?"
"I……"
"Everyone in the village knows each other. Even the educated youth who settled in the village probably know each other. If a complete stranger suddenly appears, do you think it's possible that it won't arouse suspicion?"
"Then what should I do?"
Wang Jingjing was irritable.
“Nurse Song lives in Shisong Brigade. I’ll ask her after get off work to see if she knows the Brother Xiao you mentioned. If she does, I’ll ask Nurse Song about the recent situation of Brother Xiao’s family.”
"Brother, you're so kind!"
"Sycophant."
Fu Jinheng gave the other person a disdainful look, just then a patient was led in by a nurse.
"sit."
After inviting the patient to sit down, Fu Jinheng quickly got to work.
...
"Nurse Song!"
After getting off work, Song Lan took her bicycle out of the bike shed and heard Fu Jinheng's voice.
"Dr. Fu, is there something you need?"
Song Lan asked.
"This is my sister. Thank you for bringing her to me earlier."
Fu Jinheng thanked her sincerely. Wang Jingjing, who was standing next to him, couldn't get enough of looking at Song Lan. Song Lan naturally noticed her gaze, but didn't care.
"Dr. Fu, you're too kind."
After replying to Fu Jinheng, Song Lan heard him say, "I heard that Nurse Song's home is in Shisong Village?"
