Chapter 7: Come Back and Eat With Me
Editor: Henyee Translations
"Yingying?" The other party's voice was filled with joy and gentleness.
Jiang Yingying looked up when she heard the voice. When she saw who it was, she froze. The person in front of her was actually Han Jiaqi! The senior she had admired since high school.
Seeing the handsome Han Jiaqi in a white coat, Jiang Yingying smiled in a panic. "Senior, you work here?"
A smile appeared on Han Jiaqi's handsome face. He rubbed Jiang Yingying's head gently and dotingly. "Why did you come to the hospital? Long time no see. Why are you still like a child?"
Jiang Yingying's eyes lit up as she replied seriously, "I'm twenty years old this year." Then, she pointed at the consultation room behind her. "I'm with my friend. She's chatting with her brother."
Han Jiaqi raised his hand and looked at the time. "It's time for lunch. It seems like your friend still has a while to go. Shall I treat you to lunch?"
Jiang Yingying pursed her lips and thought for a while before turning to tell Yang Xuerong.
"Then let's go." Han Jiaqi smiled and walked in front while Jiang Yingying followed behind silently.
Jiang Yingying had admired Han Jiaqi since high school. She remembered that year, when her grandmother came to school to visit her, she suddenly fell ill. It was Han Jiaqi who rushed over to treat her grandmother and went to the hospital behind her back.
That day, the sun was shining brightly. He stood under the sunlight. In Jiang Yingying's eyes, he was like a prince facing the warm sun. He said that he was a medical student and even told her many ways to take care of her grandmother. That was the first time Jiang Yingying had a good impression of a boy. It was also because of Han Jiaqi that she chose the medical field. She wanted to go to the same school as him. She wanted to walk the path he had walked.
However, when she really fulfilled this wish, she didn't have the courage to look for him. Now that she was already married, it was even more meaningless. The last time they met, she hadn't even started university yet. Back then, Han Jiaqi even cheered her on…
Han Jiaqi brought Jiang Yingying to a clean restaurant. "What do you want to eat?" After taking off his white coat, Han Jiaqi looked even more handsome and refreshing. He flipped through the menu quickly. "I remember you like sweet and sour food?"
"Yes." It had been too long since she had seen her senior. Jiang Yingying was so nervous that her voice couldn't help but quiver.
At that moment, her phone suddenly rang. Jiang Yingying was shocked. She looked at it and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. She didn't think too much about it and picked it up.
"Where are you?"
A deep and cold male voice familiar to Jiang Yingying sounded. She asked in confusion, "Who are you?"
"Chu Tang," the man replied.
"Why do you have my phone number?" Jiang Yingying was shocked.
"Is it difficult to get?" The man's voice was cold. "Come back and eat with me."
Jiang Yingying looked at Han Jiaqi, who was still ordering, and discussed on the phone, "Can I go back later?" She hadn't seen her senior in a long time and he had taken the initiative to treat her to a meal. She was really embarrassed to leave immediately.
Chu Tang was silent for a moment. "I'll give you ten minutes."
Jiang Yingying nodded and put down her phone.
"Is he your boyfriend?" Han Jiaqi asked with a smile.
"He's not my boyfriend." Jiang Yingying scratched her head in embarrassment. "He's my husband."
As soon as she finished speaking, Han Jiaqi's smile froze on his face. Then, he smiled self-deprecatingly. "You're only twenty years old. Why did you get married so early? When did this happen?"
"Yesterday," Jiang Yingying said, feeling even more embarrassed.
The self-deprecation in Han Jiaqi's eyes intensified. He coughed lightly. "Your marriage is a big deal, but I didn't give you anything. Take today's meal as my blessing to you." With that, he called the waiter to order.
"No need." Jiang Yingying hurriedly stopped him. "I'll be leaving shortly. My husband wants me to go back and eat with him."
Han Jiaqi couldn't help but turn pale. In the end, he sighed. "How long have you two been together?"
Jiang Yingying thought about it. She had known Chu Tang for a day and a few hours. Of course, she couldn't say that, so she could only lie. "Two months."
Han Jiaqi picked up his cup to hide his emotions. He smiled and said, "It's only been two months. Did you guys fall in love at first sight?"
Jiang Yingying felt very guilty. "Yes." Then, she took a sip of water to cover it up. However, when she touched the warm water, she inexplicably recalled the feeling of him kissing her last night. Chu Tang's lips looked firm, but they were so soft and warm… The more she thought about it, the redder Jiang Yingying's face became.
In Han Jiaqi's opinion, her blush was because of shyness when mentioning her lover. Thus, his face turned even paler.
"Yingying!" Just as the two of them were silent, Yang Xuerong pushed the door open and entered. "Your husband's driver is here."
