The handsome guy next door loves to flirt.

Chen Mingyuan frowned, glancing at the woman beside him. A look of surprise flashed across his face. This woman looked somewhat familiar; he'd forgotten... She was made up like a demon, but after removing her makeup, she was comparable to a certain woman. He wondered how much perfume she was wearing—it was unbearable. However, for Yun Shu's sake, he politely asked Xiao Qiu to sit in the back and asked where she was going. He knew where she wanted to go; thankfully, it was on the way. If it were going in the opposite direction, he would have immediately told her to get off.

Chen Mingyuan waved goodbye to Yun Shu before driving away.

Yun Shu watched, both amused and exasperated, as Xiao Qiu drove away in Chen Mingyuan's car. She had looked down on her before, but now she had no backbone at all. She'd only greeted her briefly before daring to get into her friend's car. It was truly speechless. Had she forgotten their unpleasant encounter a while back? Suddenly, Yun Shu found Xiao Qiu's eccentricity rather amusing.

Regardless of all that, Yun Shu planned to get a good night's sleep as soon as she got back.

Xiao Qiu leaned forward and looked at the cold-looking man in front of her, saying, "My name is Tan Xiao Qiu. I live in the same building as Yun Shu. I know her and her boyfriend very well..."

Before Xiao Qiu could finish speaking, she was jolted forward, her nose almost touching the seat in front of her. Luckily, her nose wasn't surgically enhanced, or it would have been flattened. It turned out Chen Mingyuan had suddenly slammed on the brakes. Xiao Qiu was about to ask him what was wrong when she heard him ask, "Yun Shu has a boyfriend?"

Xiao Qiu raised an eyebrow, then said, "Yes, everyone in our neighborhood knows. It was because of her boyfriend that there was a misunderstanding between us. I guess she and her boyfriend will be getting married soon. The younger people in the neighborhood are already calling her 'sister-in-law'!" This was the truth, and Xiao Qiu didn't want to lie. The man in front of her was clearly also a man who liked Yun Shu. She didn't want to miss out on such a handsome man. She was also single at the time, so the two of them could become a couple.

After hearing this, Chen Mingyuan quickly suppressed his displeasure and continued driving, but he still felt a mix of emotions. Yun Shu seemed like a gentle and somewhat naive person, but he didn't expect her to have a boyfriend at such a young age. His desire to pursue her slowly sank. It seemed that it was not going to work out. He didn't want to interfere in other people's relationships, as it would be very immoral.

Xiao Qiu was still chattering away about what she was doing and what she liked, but Chen Mingyuan didn't hear a word she said. He just thought the woman was talking too much and was a bit noisy, and he regretted letting her ride with him.

Fortunately, they arrived at the address Xiao Qiu had given them not long after. When Xiao Qiu was about to get off the bus, she forcefully handed Chen Mingyuan her phone number and then happily got off the bus.

Around 10 p.m., Yun Shu noticed that Xiao Mingkun hadn't returned yet. She had woken up hungry after a nap and grabbed a piece of bread to eat. When she heard a knock on the door, she assumed it was Xiao Mingkun and quickly went to open it.

"It's you!" Standing outside the door was Xiao Qiu, but she wasn't dressed up, wearing ordinary home clothes and rarely without makeup. Actually, Xiao Qiu looked even better without makeup. Usually, she wore heavy makeup, almost unrecognizable, perhaps because of work requirements.

"Yun Shu, I've come to apologize for my previous rudeness, hehe..."

"You don't come here unless you need something. What do you want?" Yun Shu looked at her coldly. But now she didn't think this woman was as hateful as before. She was bold and decisive and had a bit of personality. However, she was too materialistic and still couldn't be a friend.

Xiao Qiu wasn't embarrassed when she was exposed, and said, "What was that man's name today? I'm planning to switch my focus to him. He's really my type, and I'm going to win him over within a month!"

Yun Shu was stunned when she heard this! This male god was indeed charming; he had already captivated another girl after just one visit. Xiao Qiu in front of her was full of confidence, but Yun Shu sighed, thinking of all the nurses in the hospital who were also pursuing Chen Mingyuan, "Xiao Qiu, there are more women in our hospital who want to pursue Chen Mingyuan than you can count on two hands. It's going to be very difficult for you to win his heart." She reminded him that a man like this would be the center of attention and cause a stir wherever he went. First Xu Ruo, and now Xiao Qiu—he had so many suitors.

"I'm confident. Besides, I don't even have designs on Brother Kun. You should be happy! Or do you want to have your cake and eat it too?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Shu immediately shook her head and said, "I have a boyfriend and don't want to have anything to do with Chen Mingyuan. He just saw that I was about to take a car and, as a colleague, gave me a ride back. Don't overthink it. I'm not interested in him at all. So many people are pursuing him. I don't think I'm good-looking enough to dare to pursue a god like him."

Xiao Qiu snorted and said, "You know that's good. Since we like different men, we can still be friends!"

"I wouldn't dare. If you lose your temper again, I wouldn't dare offend you. As a fellow tenant living here, I'm just reminding you that Dr. Chen is very cold. Just don't get hurt. Don't blame me for not making things clear to you later." Yun Shu said politely, just like last time when she didn't mention that Xiao Mingkun had a girlfriend, and Xiao Mingkun complained about it for so long.

"Don't worry! I won't blame you this time, don't fret!" With that, he waved goodbye to Yun Shu with a forced smile and went downstairs. Cultured people are such a hassle; their speech is so roundabout, it's just not pleasant to listen to.

Yun Shu sighed helplessly, thinking of Xu Ruo. "Why did that damn woman have to fall for Chen Mingyuan? Just look at their figures! Xiao Qiu has such a curvaceous figure; Xu Ruo, with her unkempt appearance, can't compare. Of course, unless Xu Ruo returns to her original appearance, then there might be a comparison. Any man would choose Xiao Qiu. Looks like I have to go see that Xu Ruo tomorrow and make her back down, otherwise the more she gets involved, the deeper she'll get hurt."

Yun Shu returned to her room. It was past 10 PM, and the next room was still quiet, indicating that Xiao Mingkun hadn't returned yet. Tian Li's family was also silent. So, with a little worry, she washed up and went to bed, planning to visit the hospital the next day to see if it was Xiao Lele who was sick or Tian Li's youngest daughter.

The next morning, Yun Shu woke up and heard noises next door, so she went to knock on the door.

When she saw Xiao Mingkun, he didn't seem to be in good spirits. He had heavy shadows under his eyes, but it didn't detract from his handsome and cool face at all. He must have gone to bed very late last night. She didn't hear the door next door open when she was lying in bed trying to sleep.

Yun Shu happened to be on duty today, and it was her turn to rest, but she still wanted to go to the hospital and see Xu Ruo in the afternoon. She was still worried about Lele, so she asked with a worried look, "What happened yesterday?"
