Doctor Jiang’s Beloved Sweetheart

The emergency rescue at the traffic accident site on the South Road at Ning City Central made headlines the next day.

When Yan Nian switched on the channel for Ding Baoyi to watch, the latter was so shocked that she dropped the apple to the floor.

“Oh, god, I’m gonna be famous!”

Yan Nian: “You aren’t the one famous, it’s my husband.”

Ninety-nine percent of the comments below the news were praising the man’s looks, valiance, and calm and cool demeanor while handling the emergency, etc. There were a few young girls sending their votes like crazy.

“Eh?”

Ding Baoyi’s eyes settled on the man who arrived in a motorcycle at the end of the clip.

His strong, angular face, thick, bushy eyebrows, and bohemian attitude seemed so familiar to her.

“Who’s this?”

She pointed to Xu Kuangjie on the screen.

Her friend smiled and explained, “He was the one who knocked at our table at our first meetup. He’s Jiang Beiyuan’s friend and the CEO of Xu Corporation.”

“Ah… That’s him.”

No wonder she found him familiar.

Somehow, she seemed to have met him before.

…

As the two good friends were chatting along, Dr. Jiang arrived to check on his patient.

He was wearing his white coat unbuttoned. The moment he pushed open the ward door and entered the room, the whole place seemed to have become misty and shrouded by light when Yan Nian’s eyes fell upon him.

“Oh, you’re here.”

She stood up, turned aside, and made way for him unconsciously.

He glanced at her and caught sight of her sparkling and misty almond-shaped eyes.

Cocking his brow quizzically, he asked, “Why are you looking at me in this way?”

“Eh? In what way am I looking at you?”

“…”

Pursing his lips, he did not say anything more and started to ask Ding Baoyi about her condition with indifference.

When he was talking to Yan Nian, his brows were soft and his eyes were gentle. Even his voice was husky and sweet like a summer breeze.

However, his tone turned sullen the moment he started to talk to Ding Baoyi. The detachment in his voice was unmistakable.

This minute change was not apparent to the protagonist, but it was obvious to her bestie. Trying not to laugh, she nodded at the man. “I’ve heard so much about you, Dr. Jiang. It’s my honor to meet you today. Thank you for saving my life yesterday! If not for the fact that you, Dr. Jiang, already has someone in mind, I would have gladly betrothed myself to you!”

Jeez.

Speechless, her buddy rolled her eyes at her.

Does she know what are the right things to say in the first place?!

Bam—

Jiang Beiyuan clipped the observation notes back to the clipboard.

He then turned to Yan Nian behind him.

“Wait for me at the lounge in the afternoon, we’ll go back together.”

“Oh… alright.”

She spouted these two words with much difficulty. Her face and ears had turned red and hot by now, as if she could burst into flames at any moment.

Noble and charismatic, he looked good when he walked. Under the sun-lit sky, he was like a strong and sturdy bamboo, standing erect.

As he walked away, she fixed her eyes on his back for a long, long time…

Her friend on the bed had to rib her hard on her elbow.

“Sis, remember to wipe off your saliva after you swoon!”

Eh?

She rubbed the two corners of her lips unconsciously.

Gosh!

There isn’t any salivation!

“I think you have recovered so well that you need a beating. Right, Ding Baoyi?”

“Tsk tsk tsk, somebody here was looking at Dr. Jiang like a puppy. Her eyes were shining and her lips were smiling as she wagged her tail.”

She could not help stammering in response, “Who… whose eyes were shining, or lips laughing? Ding Baoyi, were your corneas damaged in the accident?”

“Do you like him? Now, do you like him a lot?”

Her nosy friend inched closer to her.

Her buddy had not been shy with men for a long while, right?

The kind of shyness where one would become nervous and restrained like a little girl around a man — her friend had just displayed that.

Her buddy snorted at her, and to express her clear determination not to fall in love again, she blurted with a frosty expression, “Whoever falls in love will be d*mned!”
