Just met you: This guy is a bit warm

Hearing this, Ouyang Fan, who originally had a faint smile on his face, froze, his hands paused, and his seductive eyes darkened.

He quickly resumed his nonchalant demeanor, a smile that barely reached his eyes: "Okay, since Miss Chu wants to do it herself, I won't help. Just don't accuse me of being ungentlemanly when the time comes."

Chu Yanshu glanced at Ouyang Fan with a gloomy expression: "Don't worry, I don't have the habit of gossiping about others behind their backs."

The atmosphere between the two of them became a little awkward for a moment.

Su Ruonan, who was eating happily at the side, also noticed that something was wrong with the two of them. So she bit her chopsticks lightly and looked at Chu Yanshu cautiously. She wanted to say a few words of comfort, but now was not the time.

Seeing his wife's mood for eating was affected, Song Shiye frowned and glanced at Ouyang Fan: "When did you start to care about these things? Didn't you say you were hungry a long time ago? Why don't you eat?"

Ouyang Fan realized that he might have gone too far, but he couldn't bring himself to apologize, so he could only sit down silently and eat his meal quietly.

In fact, this was not his original intention, but for some reason, since when, the distance between him and Chu Yanshu has become farther and farther.

People who used to sit together and chat and joke with me have now become strangers who don’t even bother to look at me.

Whenever facing Chu Yanshu's indifference, Ouyang Fan would become unlike himself, and every time, he could not control his emotions and would eventually lose control of himself and say hurtful words.

Ouyang Fan knew that if he continued like this, his relationship with Chu Yanshu would only become more and more strained.

There was a long dining table in the reception room. At this time, Song Shiye and Su Ruonan were sitting side by side on one side, while Chu Yanshu and Ouyang Fan were sitting on the other side.

As soon as Ouyang Fan sat down, Chu Yanshu quickly moved her chair a little further towards the edge of the table.

This subtle movement made Ouyang Fan tightly grip the chopsticks in his hand, and the veins on the back of his hand were clearly visible due to the force.

Ouyang Fan smiled bitterly in his heart. Did Chu Yanshu really dislike him so much? Was it so unbearable to sit down and have a meal together?

During the meal, the four of them were all preoccupied with their own thoughts, with only the slight clinking of chopsticks and plates.

Ouyang Fan didn't have much of an appetite. He casually took two bites and said to everyone, "I'm full. You guys eat. I'm going out to smoke a cigarette."

As soon as Ouyang Fan left, Chu Yanshu lowered her eyes, her eyes flickered slightly, and a hint of loneliness flashed across her eyes. Then she raised her head and pretended nothing had happened, with an especially bright smile on her face: "Nannan, today's dishes taste good. You must not have eaten well these days. Eat more."

Then Chu Yanshu crushed the large braised lion's head on her plate with her serving chopsticks and put a piece into Su Ruonan's bowl: "Come, try this."

"Thank you, Yanshu, you should try this too, it tastes very authentic." Su Ruonan moved the dish in front of her towards Chu Yanshu.

Looking at her best friend forcing a smile, Su Ruonan's eyes were filled with heartache.

But when it comes to feelings, no one can empathize with you, and no one else can replace you.

People who are trapped in an emotional vortex cannot get out of the vortex with just a few words from others. In the end, they can only rely on themselves.

All Su Ruonan could do was to stay with Chu Yanshu more, hand her tissues to wipe her tears when she cried, stay by her side to listen to her when she needed someone to listen, and give her a warm hug when she needed a hug.

Seeing her best friend injured because of Ouyang Fan, Su Ruonan glared at Song Shiye with dissatisfaction, thinking secretly in her heart: "Hmph, how could his friend hurt her best friend's heart like this?" While she felt sorry for her best friend, she was also full of resentment towards Song Shiye.

Song Shiye, who was glared at by his wife, looked at Su Ruonan with an innocent face. He didn't know what he had done wrong, but he didn't want to make his wife angry, so he could only look at Su Ruonan with pitiful eyes.

Facing Song Shiye's innocent eyes, Su Ruonan suddenly felt a little sorry. She shouldn't have taken her anger out on Song Shiye. Song Shiye was Song Shiye, and Ouyang Fan was Ouyang Fan.

As soon as they finished their meal, the nurse came to tell Dr. Xia to go to the office.

The three of them worked together to clean up the table before leaving the ward.

As soon as I came out, I saw from a distance that not far from the smoking area, Ouyang Fan was chatting with a strange girl with his back to a few people. It seemed that she was a family member of a patient.

The weather in Suzhou was a little chilly at the end of October. The woman was wearing a thin, loose sweater in a light beige color, giving people a fresh and refined feeling.

The V-shaped neckline of the sweater allows for a glimpse of a woman's breasts, which can be quite tempting. The sweater's length reaches just below the hips, revealing a small section of her thighs, creating a sense of allure that leaves one wanting to speak but not being able to.

She wore a pair of tight black leather pants that tightly wrapped around her slender legs, outlining her perfect curves.

She wore a pair of black high-heeled shoes with slender and delicate heels, which made her figure look taller and more charming.

I don’t know what Ouyang Fan said to the other party. The girl in front of him covered her mouth and giggled, her body slightly bent, and the cleavage of her neckline was faintly visible.

Chu Yanshu's face was indifferent, she glanced at him coldly, and then passed by Ouyang Fan without any expression.

Su Ruonan glanced at the two people who were flirting, then quickened her pace and followed closely behind Chu Yanshu. Song Shiye was naturally the most important to her because of his wife, so he followed closely behind Su Ruonan.

Just like that, the three of them walked straight past Ouyang Fan as if they didn't see him.

Ouyang Fan frowned when he saw the backs of the three people. He hurriedly said a few words to the woman in front of him and then started to catch up with the three people in front.

It was not until they reached their uncle's office that Ouyang Fan caught up with them.

At this time in the office, Xia Hongsheng was discussing his grandmother's condition with a few people: "The patient has regained consciousness. It seems that there is no danger. However, just in case, she should stay in the ICU for two more days."

Xia Hongsheng looked at Song Shiye who was standing beside him, patted his shoulder, and comforted him: "Don't worry, Shiye, as long as the follow-up treatment is kept up, there shouldn't be any big problems."

After hearing what Xia Hongsheng said, the tense expressions on their faces finally relaxed, as if a huge stone in their hearts had fallen to the ground.

Su Ruonan looked at Xia Hongsheng with gratitude, her heart full of gratitude to this elder. If it weren't for Dr. Xia, her grandmother might not be in this world.

"Thank you, Dr. Xia." Su Ruonan said with a sincere expression and a choked voice.

Xia Hongsheng looked at the girl who was taking care of her grandmother with all her heart and eyes full of admiration: "You're welcome. This is my duty as a doctor."

Xia Hongsheng then looked at Song Shiye and said, "Shiye, I have an important operation waiting for me in Beijing. Time is tight, so I'm going back to Beijing first. I've already instructed other doctors here. They will keep a close eye on the patient's condition. If anything happens, please feel free to call me."

Song Shiye nodded slightly to show that he understood.

After Xia Hongsheng finished speaking, he saw his nephew who had come in at some point: "Fanfan, you are coming back to Jing City with me. Your mother arranged a blind date for you and asked me to bring you back."
