Mu Ting said indifferently, "Relationships are a matter between two people. Can't she tell whether I have feelings for her or not? Why does she have to keep staring at me like that?"
"Didn't I already say that it's because you're so charming that Comrade Yao Qingwan can't forget you and wants to be with you forever?"
Qiu Mingxuan said it casually, and upon hearing this, Mu Ting immediately gave him a cold look and said, "Can't you speak more politely?"
"Dr. Mu, you're not listening to the truth!"
With a mocking look, Qiu Mingxuan glanced at Mu Ting and then said, "Comrade Yao Qingwan likes you, that's her right as an independent individual. Whether you want to like her back or not is your right."
If you don't want Yao Qingwan to continue wasting her time on you, you can always find a time to sit down and have a good talk with her.
I believe that as long as you decisively refuse and show that you have no interest in her, Comrade Yao Qingwan, even if she is unwilling, should give up her feelings for you.
After offering his suggestion, Qiu Mingxuan asked, "What do you think of my proposal?"
Mu Ting blurted out, "Not so much." It wasn't like he hadn't expressed his attitude to her before, but Yao Qingwan simply wouldn't listen.
"Then I'm out of ideas."
Qiu Mingxuan spread his hands, shrugged, and said, "I can't help you. You'd better figure it out yourself!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Ting remained silent for a long time.
In fact, Qiu Mingxuan also couldn't understand it. Putting aside everything else, just considering Yao Qingwan's aloof and somewhat arrogant personality, how did she manage to keep getting close to Mu Ting and being rejected time and time again, even though she knew that Mu Ting had no feelings for her?
-
Hospital staff canteen.
Song Lan got her food and casually found a table to sit down, but before she could even take a couple of bites, she felt a strong gaze on her, and her brows furrowed slightly.
Her hand paused, and she looked up at the gaze, only to find that she did not recognize the owner of the gaze.
"Dr. Song."
Qiu Mingxuan carried the lunchbox to the table where Song Lan was sitting. He greeted Song Lan first, then sat down and followed Song Lan's gaze, asking, "What are you looking at?"
Song Lan shook her head, indicating that she hadn't been looking at anything. At this moment, Mu Ting sat down next to Qiu Mingxuan with his lunchbox in hand. He did notice what Song Lan was looking at.
—Yao Qingwan.
Indeed, the gaze that fell upon Song Lan belonged to Yao Qingwan.
Mu Ting, carrying a lunchbox, walked behind Qiu Mingxuan and, by sheer coincidence, saw Yao Qingwan looking at Song Lan with an unusually complicated expression.
At that moment, his brows were almost furrowed into a knot.
Why are you frowning for no reason?
Noticing Mu Ting's unusual behavior, Qiu Mingxuan raised an eyebrow and asked.
"eventful."
Mu Ting looked disgusted: "Eat your food."
"I'm concerned about you."
Qiu Mingxuan deliberately put on a hurt expression: "It seems my sincerity was ultimately misplaced!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Ting was almost disgusted.
Song Lan couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Dr. Qiu is very humorous."
"That's not humor, that's just glibness."
Mu Ting stabbed Qiu Mingxuan.
Song Lan noticed that the gazes fixed on her were becoming increasingly intense, and couldn't help but ask Qiu Mingxuan, "Dr. Qiu, do you know that woman?"
Why is he looking at her with such a complicated expression? Is there some kind of grudge between them?
The problem is, she's certain she doesn't know that woman.
"Which lady?"
Qiu Mingxuan was puzzled, but he still followed Song Lan's gaze and heard Song Lan say, "It's that woman in the camel-colored woolen coat."
Of those sitting at the same table as Yao Qingwan, only Yao Qingwan was wearing a camel-colored wool coat.
"know."
Qiu Mingxuan nodded and said, "That's Dr. Yao, from the same department as Dr. Mu."
After a pause, Qiu Mingxuan asked with a hint of doubt, "Dr. Song, why are you suddenly asking about Dr. Yao? Is there something wrong?"
Song Lan shook her head, then nodded, and said, "Although I've been at the hospital for a while, I don't know that Dr. Yao. But before you and Dr. Mu came over, the way she looked at me was very complicated."
This made me wonder if I had developed some kind of grudge with that woman without my knowledge.
Upon hearing Song Lan's words, Qiu Mingxuan immediately glanced at Mu Ting. Seeing this, Song Lan asked, "Dr. Qiu, why are you looking at Dr. Mu?"
Following Song Lan's words, Mu Ting asked Qiu Mingxuan, "Yes, why are you looking at me like that?"
"..."
Qiu Mingxuan's lips twitched almost imperceptibly, and his gaze fixed on Mu Ting clearly said, "Pretend! You're pretending! Are you sure you don't know why I'm looking at you?"
Mu Ting avoided his gaze, acting as if nothing was wrong, and said to Song Lan, "Let's continue eating, and ignore Dr. Qiu's antics."
"..."
Song Lan was taken aback. Seeing Qiu Mingxuan winking at Mu Ting repeatedly, she found it amusing and asked, "Dr. Qiu, are your eyes bothering you?"
"...Yes, yes, a bug just flew into my eye."
Qiu Mingxuan glared at Mu Ting, rubbed his eyes, and gave Song Lan an awkward smile.
After finishing her meal, Song Lan said goodbye to Mu Ting and the other man and went back to her dormitory to put away her lunchbox.
What do you mean by that?
As Qiu Mingxuan and Mu Ting walked out of the staff canteen, he said irritably, "It was clearly you who caused this trouble, but you insisted on making me look bad in front of Dr. Song. Having a friend like you is truly my blessing!"
"That's right, it's truly a blessing for both of us to be friends for so many years."
Mu Ting's tone was indifferent, which left Qiu Mingxuan speechless. He gave a soft "humph" and said, "Don't pretend to be confused in front of me."
Regarding what happened in the cafeteria, I'm afraid Comrade Yao Qingwan might harbor resentment towards Dr. Song because of you, and she might directly cause trouble for Dr. Song one day.
"She wouldn't dare!"
Mu Ting's expression turned cold instantly. He said, "Unless she wants to take off that uniform."
Qiu Mingxuan: "When a woman goes crazy, she won't care about anything else. You'd better deal with the matter between you and Comrade Yao Qingwan."
"Speak properly!"
Mu Ting's voice was deep: "There has never been anything between me and this request, don't you know that?"
"Given Yao Qingwan's attitude towards you, I believe many people in this hospital think there's more to your relationship than meets the eye. Even if you don't admit it, what can you do?"
Shaking his head slightly, Qiu Mingxuan said, "Listen to me, find a time to have a good talk with the other party, so that Dr. Song won't suffer an undeserved disaster."
While Yao Qingwan and Song Lan were chatting, on the other side, downstairs in the women's dormitory building, Song Lan was carrying a clean lunchbox and about to walk into the dormitory building.
Suddenly, a female voice drifted into my ears: "You're Dr. Song, who's on loan to our hospital, right?"
Stopping in her tracks, Song Lan turned to look at the source of the voice and asked, "Comrade, who are you...?"
She was pretending not to know him. Well, she really didn't know him, except that she had learned from Qiu Mingxuan that he was Dr. Yao from neurosurgery when they ate at the staff canteen.
