Chapter 199 I Never Expected
Zhao Hui drank some water while looking at Qiao Lan's pocket curiously, "Miss Qiao, you're Doraemon. You have everything in your pocket."
"Yeah, yeah, big pockets make it easier to carry things."
Qiao Lan laughed it off and put the big backpacks they brought against the wall.
"But are you okay, Ouyang, over at the medical station?"
She thanked him for his support, but she also didn't want him to feel wronged.
When he was at Renhe Hospital, he refused to give up on the wounded and sick, and refused to give up on his colleagues. That was his belief and principle.
If he came to repay her out of gratitude, but had to give up his professional ethics...
"Of course I have no problem with that."
Ouyang Mo said that he had properly transferred all the patients he was responsible for at the medical center to his colleagues.
The current medical center is not only staffed by the original Renhe Hospital staff, but has also seen the addition of many new medical personnel, making it fully operational without him. In fact, while he was the overall director, he later had two deputies, each responsible for a specific area. The Renhe team no longer had the final say in the medical center.
The surgeon who performed Ye Qi's surgery today wasn't him, but a well-known surviving expert from another top-tier hospital. Old Song specifically asked that expert to perform the surgery and avoided him. It seemed that because of Qiao Lan, the management was also wary of him?
Ouyang Mo couldn't stand it and left in anger.
"But, what about your family's news?" Qiao Lan asked.
The Bloody Dawn Base, with its investigative system, could help base members find out about the fate of distant relatives and friends, and medical staff like Ouyang Mo had priority. If he left, the base would definitely not prioritize finding information about his relatives and friends.
Ouyang Mo shook his head. "It doesn't matter. If they are still alive, there will always be a day when we can get in touch."
Of course, he was concerned about his relatives far away who had no news from him, but he hoped to get the news through legitimate channels.
Without Qiao Lan, he would have died when the mob stormed Renhe Hospital. If he had been ungrateful and betrayed Qiao Lan in order to get information, and stood with those people when Qiao Lan became the target of public criticism, abandoning her... He couldn't convince himself, nor would he forgive himself.
"Ouyang, thank you."
Qiao Lan said softly.
At first she wanted to keep him by her side, just like she wanted to keep the chef and his son by her side, in order to improve her quality of life.
But he chose to stay with his patients and colleagues, and insisted on curing diseases and saving lives in the apocalypse. She couldn't seduce such a person, and he couldn't be coaxed away with good food and drink.
Unexpectedly, when she had already given up the idea of kidnapping him, he took the initiative to come to her because of what happened today.
Willingly want to join her little gang.
"You're always so principled, but today..."
"Qiao Lan, you are my principle."
Qiao Lan opened her eyes wide in surprise and stared at Ouyang Mo.
Ouyang Mo paused.
The faint light of the fire in the room flickered, and his face flushed slightly.
Doctor Zhao Hui beside her had her eyes even wider than Qiao Lan's, and her mouth was wide open, "Ah... Baba, are you confessing your feelings, Ouyang?!"
"Don't talk nonsense, I..."
Ouyang Mo's rebuttal suddenly stopped.
After a moment of silence, he grabbed Qiao Lan's wrist and pulled her out of the house again.
In the quiet night, he suddenly heard his own heartbeat, thump, thump, thump, thump.
The courage of leaving the base in anger suddenly found a point of support.
It seems that I have found the meaning of life.
"Qiao Lan." He held her hand tightly.
A little confused, but also determined.
"According to Ye Qi's guards, he told you personally that between Base and you, he chose Base."
"He's a jerk."
"Between the base and you, between anything in the world and you, if I have to choose, Qiao Lan, I choose you."
"Tang Xiaoyao scolded you, didn't he? I later asked the people who participated in the fight, and I heard that his words were very unpleasant. But Qiao Lan, remember, you are not dirty at all. You are the cleanest and purest girl I have ever met in my life."
"You are kind, you are capable, you are the best, you are very smart, you are very, very good, really very good."
"Remember that time at Renhe Hospital when you suddenly walked into my office and said you wanted to discuss a deal with me? I always think of that moment. You pushed open the door, and behind you was the beam of light from the corridor. You were more dazzling than that beam of light."
"I see you as light, and I won't let them trample on you like that."
"Qiao Lan, I'm openly trying to steal Ye Qi's girl. He doesn't deserve you. Tang Xiaoyao doesn't deserve you either. If he really cared about you, he wouldn't do something like that just out of jealousy. They're all scum."
"I... I don't know if I'm a scumbag or not, but I... I definitely won't be a scumbag to you."
"You...you should either date me or not. If Ye Qi doesn't choose you, then you can find someone else and make him mad. I don't have any special abilities, but I'm a doctor. Compared to him...I'm not too bad."
"It's okay if you don't have any feelings for me. Just use me as a tool to piss people off. When you find someone suitable in the future, then... dump me. I definitely won't get jealous or go crazy. I'll be your doctor forever. Is that okay with you?"
Qiao Lan was stunned.
I never expected this.
I really never expected this.
"Ouyang..."
"Don't be so quick to reject me. Otherwise, just pretend I never said anything."
Ouyang Mo loosened his grip and lowered his head, feeling somewhat bewildered.
He spoke very seriously and passionately at the beginning, but he began to lose confidence in the last few sentences. He felt guilty about proposing a relationship.
Qiao Lan opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
She also felt guilty.
She respected Dr. Ouyang very much and thought he was amazing, with excellent medical skills and strong principles. She never expected that one day this respected man would suddenly confess his love to her.
What happened today?
Her real boyfriend broke up with her, so Xiao Tang and Ouyang Mo, two people she never thought she would have a relationship with, expressed their feelings to her?
The heart can't take it very well.
"Woooooo!"
"I'm so touched, Dr. Ouyang!"
"Awesome!"
"Together, together! Together!"
Suddenly there was a burst of laughter.
A group of people in the room woke up at some point, and Wen Jiaojiao led everyone to lie at the door and make a noise.
Of course, they all spoke quietly to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
"Stop it!" No matter how thick-skinned Qiao Lan was, he couldn't hold it in at this moment.
He grabbed Ouyang Mo and jumped out of the building, running to a secluded place nearby.
Fortunately, that group of people knew what to do and didn't chase after us.
"Ouyang, thank you."
Qiao Lan, who had adjusted his mood while fleeing, raised his face and showed a bright smile.
"I'm really sad today. I don't want to show my sadness to others, but I feel really bad inside." She said to Ouyang Mo in a low voice, but seriously, "But you are willing to come and said so many nice things. I am not sad anymore. Thank you, thank you."
She walked closer and put her arms around him.
A gentle, polite hug.
