Jiaochen

The lights in the bar wildly changed, dazzling the eyes of many people.

Fu Yanzhi sat at the corner of the sofa, and his cold temperament compared to the bar atmosphere, was a hundred and eighty thousand miles apart.

The vigorous dancing onstage and the constant rock music shook people’s heads.

He reached up and pressed his forehead and was tempted to leave the scene early.

Seeing him like this, Lin Haoran asked with dissatisfaction, “Dr. Fu, what’s the matter with you?”

He teased, “Did coming to a bar make you feel this bad?”

Fu Yanzhi glanced at him coldly and didn’t say anything.

Being looked at by him like that, Lin Haoran somehow felt guilty.

He reached out and touched the tip of his nose and tsked, “At any rate, it’s my birthday, so why don’t you give me some face?”

It’s Lin Haoran’s birthday today, and not too long ago, he was clamoring about being exhausted from work, so he definitely needed a place to relax on his birthday.

Who would have expected that they would end up settling on such an uninspiring place as a bar?

The colleague next to him listened to the conversation and laughed, “Dr. Lin, don’t make it difficult for our Dr. Fu.”

Lin Haoran raised his eyebrows in dissatisfaction, “How did I make it hard for him?”

On hearing this, the colleague joked: “Just because you come to the bar is already making it difficult for Dr. Fu, compared to the bar, Dr. Fu will definitely prefer to stay home all night reading medical books and also Dr. Fu has said before that he doesn’t like drinking alcohol.”

Lin Haoran: “……..”

Fu Yanzhi raised his eyes and corrected, “Wrong.”

The people around turned to look at him at the same time.

He then said indifferently, “I choose to sleep.”

In their profession, they only had a little time to spare and always wanted to scramble for rest and some refreshing, so how could they come here to spend the time?

The others were powerless to argue and had no words to say in return.

Lin Haoran was different; he had always advocated that he should work and have fun, so he couldn’t waste such a good time either to study or sleep.

Thinking about it, he bluntly spat, “No wonder you don’t have a girlfriend.”

A young girl on one side heard this and retorted, “Dr. Lin, it’s not like our Dr. Fu isn’t looking for one.”

“Yes, yes, yes, you’re right. There are many female doctors and nurses in the hospital who are secretly in love with our Dr. Fu, ah.”

“Ay~, Dr. Fu do you want me to introduce you ? Which one do you prefer, cute, sexy, pretty, or even a virtuous woman?”

“……”

The crowds were asking in all sorts of ways.

Lin Haoran looked at the people who kept blabbering and directly interjected, “Hey hey hey what’s going on with you guys, how come you’re not introducing me to any of those girls and instead to Dr. Fu!?”

He then mercilessly spat out the words about Fu Yanzhi: “Dr. Fu doesn’t have any desire for this side of relationships, so don’t make things difficult for him.”

The crowds: “…Why not?”

Lin Haoran and Fu Yanzhi had known each other since college, and understood him relatively well: “From the day I met him, I have never seen his eyes focused on any woman. Except for the patient or their family, I’ve never seen his eyes set on a woman for more than three seconds.”

Looking at the crowds’ dumbstruck look, Lin Haoran did not forget to make a final summary: “So ah sisters don’t think about it, your Dr. Fu will live with the medical books for the rest of his life, and when he retires, he’ll be a monk in a temple.”

The crowd: “Just cut it out.”

Lin Haoran gaped, then he looked at the group in front of him, “I’ll show you the proof if you don’t believe me.”

“How do you want to do it?”

He thought to himself and said, “Just get the prettiest person in the bar to come out, and you will see whether our Dr. Fu will look at that person for more than three seconds.”

The crowd: “…”

During the gaps in his speech, Lin Haoran did not forget to look for the bar’s prettiest person.

Fu Yanzhi wasn’t the least bit interested in this kind of test, and he stood straight up, intending to leave.

Just as he stood up, Lin Haoran suddenly grabbed his shoulder, and with an exaggerated “wow” sound, he exclaimed, “Look over there.”

Fu Yanzhi didn’t even lift his eyelids, dropping his eyes to look at the hand on his shoulder and coldly said, “Let go.”

Lin Haoran wasn’t afraid of him. His gaze stayed on Ji Qingying and continued, “No, just take a look and let me finish this test, just one look and I will allow you to leave early.”

Fu Yanzhi was annoyed by his noise and looked past him indifferently.

Unexpectedly, the two eyes met through a few booths apart.

The spotlights shifted, and the light fell on Ji Qingying’s face.

It gave a clearer view of her beautiful, delicate face, frame by frame, becoming more and more striking as the lights changed in magnification.

Lin Haoran was stunned, and even the other colleagues gave a small gasp of surprise.

After a few seconds, the crowd returned to their senses.

The awestruck crowd seemed to have forgotten to count if Fu Yanzhi had stared at the girl for more than three seconds or not.

By the time Lin Haoran remembered, Fu Yanzhi had already gone to the restroom.

—

On the other side, Ji Qingying didn’t expect him to turn his head at all.

When she locked eyes with him, she still felt the emotions in those eyes were faint, as faint as the fog that had dissolved during the early morning period.

But at the same moment, she still heard the sound of her heartbeat being amplified.

After a few seconds, she followed suit and got up from her seat.

“Where are you going?”

Chen Xinyu looked at her with a straight expression as she gawked at her, “You’re not going to ask him for his phone number, are you?”

“No.”

Ji Qingying stirred up her hair and stood up in an elegant manner: “I’m going to the restroom.”

— Such a chance encounter.

When Ji Qingying arrived at the restroom, she didn’t see Fu Yanzhi.

She raised her eyebrows and wasn’t in a hurry.

By the time she emerged from within, she saw the man standing at the end of the passage.

The man’s back was straight, standing there with one hand in his pocket, the other hand holding a cell phone on the phone. His voice was cold yet pleasing to the ear, and he spoke in an unhurried tone that sounded unusually comfortable.

She narrowed her eyes, pondering exactly how she would pick up the conversation without appearing cheesy.

Before she could think of anything, the man had hung up his phone and turned to her way.

Ji Qingying raised her eyes slightly surprised, her lips opened and closed, and just when she wanted to speak, Fu Yanzhi had already passed by the spot left next to her.

Not even giving her a look!

Ji Qingying blinked and looked back at the mirror in the sink, for the first time ever having some doubts about this face of hers.

Ain’t I pretty?

Doesn’t it look pretty?

But the reflection in the mirror had told her very clearly that she was…

BEAUTIFUL.

You’re very good-looking.

Then why didn’t he even bother to look at her?

–

With this “grievance”, Ji Qingying went back to her booths in the bar.

She didn’t expect that in just a few minutes, Chen Xinyu and the others had already gotten acquainted with the people from the other side.

She stood there and blinked slightly.

Chen Xinyu was the first to notice her and shouted, “Qingying, come here quickly.”

Ji Qingying was dumbfounded and only nodded, “Ok.”

As soon as she walked over, Chen Xinyu enthusiastically introduced the others, “This is my best friend, Ji Qingying.”

Her lips curved as she smiled, “This is Dr. Lin Haoran.”

Ji Qingying didn’t look at Lin Haoran but the man in front of him.

"

Lin Haoran had always been rather self-confident and took a cup to Ji Qingying, smiling and clinking it with her, “Hello, I’m Lin Haoran.”

“Ji Qingying.”

She took two sips of wine, not quite understanding what this was all about.

Chen Xinyu knew best of her friend and quickly explained, “We just had an interaction and thought it would be more lively with more people.”

Saying that, she pointed at Lin Haoran and said, “Although we were all strangers before, but now we know each other, right?”

The crowd nodded, “Yeah, it’s so much fun with many people, well people come to bars so they can make friends anyway.”

That’s just a half-truth.

In a bar, it’s natural to chat, drink, and make friends with those you like.

Although Ji Qingying didn’t know how Chen Xinyu had gotten acquainted with these doctors and nurses in such a short period of time, she was really compelled to give her a compliment from the bottom of her heart.

It’s just too awesome.

Upon receiving her gaze, Chen Xinyu winked at her.

Ji Qingying raised her eyes and went to look at the man sitting next to Lin Haoran.

With all the buzz around him, he was downright quiet by himself.

Following her line of sight, Lin Haoran was also very much upfront: “I forgot to introduce you, this is my colleague, Dr. Fu Yanzhi.”

Chen Xinyu curled her lips in a smile and quipped, “Is the hospital doctor’s appearance quality already so high now?”

Fu Yanzhi raised his eyes and said softly, “Hello.”

“Hello there.”

Chen Xinyu laughed, “This is my best friend.”

Fu Yanzhi looked sideways, looking up at the woman in front of him.

A matching warm-colored cheongsam outfit, which was made to look less monotonous and even a little brighter because of the small beads on the cheongsam.

His eyes paused, resting on her eyes for a few seconds, and he gave a slight nod, “Fu Yanzhi.”

Ji Qingying sat down next to him, curved her lips and smiled, and said proactively, “We’ve already met before.”

Hearing that, Lin Haoran was intrigued.

“You’ve already met each other? When?”
