Chapter 61 Li Nian's Independent Side Story - When He Remembered It (Part 10)
After Yu Qingzhou presented the facts and reasoned with her, Li Nian was clearly swayed.
Especially their honest and straightforward attitude, it's hard to find fault with them.
As the saying goes, to err is human, to forgive divine.
Besides, he knew in his heart that he had indeed made a mountain out of a molehill just now.
If it were the usual Li Nian, she wouldn't act like this.
The unexpected incident that happened to Yu Qingzhou really gave Li Nian a big fright.
Heaven knows how terrified and helpless the young man felt seeing Yu Qingzhou lying motionless on the stretcher, looking at her unconscious and seemingly dead state...
The first thought that came to Li Nian's mind at that moment was not the possibility that Yu Qingzhou might die, but rather—
[Dying together is also an option.]
If anything were to happen to Yu Qingzhou, he wouldn't want to live anymore.
Such thoughts lingered deep in the young man's mind, and he was still somewhat dazed after hearing the news that Yu Qingzhou was alright.
[You don't seem very happy to hear that you're safe and sound?]
That familiar, annoying tone of voice—you know who it is without even looking up.
A top student from the medical school of University A, a genius who, at a young age, has already established himself in a key department of the city hospital, where talent abounds.
His cousin, Shen Yingxue.
Both of them can be considered outstanding among the younger generation in the entire family.
Based on the principles of mutual respect and blood ties, the siblings should have followed their elders' expectations, shining brightly in their respective fields while helping each other and striving to maximize their benefits.
Unfortunately, those who walk different paths cannot make plans together.
Li Nian looked down on Shen Yingxue's aloofness and arrogance, while Shen Yingxue couldn't stand her cheap cousin's money-grubbing ways.
Therefore, although we worked and lived in the same city after graduation, apart from a few occasions during holidays, we were basically strangers to each other in our social circles.
It had been almost half a year since we last met at the old house, and I never expected that we would meet again at each other's workplace.
To stay away from her cousin, Li Nian didn't even step inside the city hospital.
Anyway, there are plenty of good hospitals in the area, so there's absolutely no need to go to another place to cause trouble for a minor ailment.
This time it was purely accidental.
Because the municipal hospital is the closest large hospital to the scene of the incident.
Therefore, after receiving the distress call, 120 immediately dispatched rescue personnel from the municipal hospital.
Throughout the entire process, Li Nian's attention was entirely focused on her unconscious boyfriend.
Once everything had settled down and the situation had stabilized, the person was already standing in the corridor of the municipal hospital.
At the time, Li Nian still harbored a glimmer of hope.
But... what if?
After all, such a large city hospital has several branch campuses; it's not necessarily possible for them to go head-to-head with that guy.
However, as the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly.
He encountered all sorts of bad luck at once.
Not only was Shen Yingxue in the hospital, but by sheer coincidence, she also became Yu Qingzhou's attending physician...
Of course, Li Nian later learned that this coincidence was not a coincidence at all. Rather, it was the deliberate act of those meddlesome old fogies who had specifically contacted acquaintances and made prior arrangements.
Firstly, Shen Yingxue is indeed a highly skilled doctor, and with her excellent image and temperament, she is practically a walking advertisement for the municipal hospital.
Secondly, I also wanted to use this opportunity to improve the relationship between the two children.
The older generation generally believes that relationships are built through interaction; if a relationship isn't strong enough, it's because people don't visit each other frequently enough.
Therefore, it is wrong to attribute the long-standing estrangement and indifference between cousins to a lack of contact.
They completely failed to consider that some people are born with incompatible personalities.
If we never actually see each other, that's fine, but the more we see each other, the more we grow to dislike each other...
No sooner had Li Nian recovered from the shock of her boyfriend possibly being in mortal danger than Shen Yingxue, who had nothing better to do, came over with her hands in her pockets and started making sarcastic remarks.
Li Nian wanted nothing more than to tear this guy to pieces on the spot.
The reason why no action was taken was not because of the bullshit gentlemanly principle of not hitting women.
Rather, it was because after such a close call, both his mind and body had reached a critical point.
In fact, as one of the people who witnessed the accident, Li Nian, who was sitting in the back seat, was not much less affected than Yu Qingzhou, who was in the front seat...
The reason I can still stand here alive and kicking is because I'm barely hanging on by a thread.
She was afraid that something might go wrong with Yu Qingzhou when she wasn't paying attention... This was the only thing that Li Nian could not allow under any circumstances.
On the other hand, even if Li Nian were at her peak with all her health points, she would only be evenly matched with her cousin when they were fighting bare-handed.
Shen Yingxue is inexplicably terrifyingly strong.
Especially considering the innate physical differences between men and women, the other person is practically a monster...
Li Nian has always been a sharp-tongued person.
However, he could still distinguish between prioritizing strength and risking his life.
Although Yu Qingzhou would occasionally resort to physical punishment when she got annoyed, it was a sign of affection and a way of showing love. For Li Nian, it was just a harmless little joke.
Thinking of her boyfriend, who was now out of danger, Li Nian felt both happy and worried. Her gaze towards her cousin held an extra layer of wariness and vigilance.
Others may not know, but Li Nian knows it all too well.
Unfortunately, her cousin was almost exactly to Yu Qingzhou's liking.
Fortunately, Li Nian secretly told herself—
This time, you're the one who meets him first...
Shen Yingxue noticed that Li Nian was silent and seemed to be thinking about something.
One moment his brows were furrowed, the next his face showed a conflicted expression, and then suddenly he burst into laughter, though the smile just looked incredibly irritating...
Out of basic humanitarian concern between relatives, Shen Yingxue kindly suggested that the other party get a checkup for their brain.
He wasn't quite normal to begin with, and if something bad were to happen to him, he'd be the only son in his uncle's family... um.
But then Shen Yingxue thought again that it might also be a solution.
After all, if you ruin your main account, you can always level up a new one.
The system that Li Nian was set up with a serious problem from the start. If she could win twice in a row, it would be like her ancestors' graves were struck by lightning.
Li Nian had no idea what Shen Yingxue was thinking. It was clearly not something good.
However, those who understand the times are wise.
When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head, especially since you're not the only one standing under that roof...
However, there is one thing.
That is, no matter what, he didn't want his boyfriend and cousin to meet.
In particular, Yu Qingzhou must not be allowed to see Shen Yingxue...
It wasn't that he didn't trust Yu Qingzhou's character; most things in this world are beyond human control.
Life and death, emotions, and beautiful dreams that cannot be obtained...
Li Nian had finally reached this point, finally snatched a marriage that wasn't meant for her from the hands of fate, and even went so far as to harm herself...
How could she be willing to take the risk... Even if there was only the slightest possibility of losing everything, Li Nian would not let it happen.
However, things still took an unexpected turn.
First, after Yu Qingzhou woke up, she seemed to remember something that did not exist.
Then there's the unexpected encounter between Yu Qingzhou and Shen Yingxue.
Earlier, Li Nian had already contacted a hospital with similar conditions but closer to her home.
The specific procedures were handled entirely by a designated person.
What he wanted was to stay by Yu Qingzhou's side until everything was settled, in order to ensure that no accidents would happen.
However, plans can never keep up with changes.
Seeing the unwavering gaze Yu Qingzhou gave Shen Yingxue, Li Nian panicked. Overwhelmed by unease, she uttered one foolish thing after another.
She had clearly noticed the impatience in Yu Qingzhou's eyes.
It's like a vicious cycle.
But Li Nian just couldn't control herself.
Because he simply couldn't understand it.
Mingming—
My arrival has completely changed everything.
But why does everything seem to be slowly converging on the predetermined trajectory of fate?
Li Nian dared not think about it.
Does all of this mean that he will eventually lose everything he has stolen from his other self so far...?
