Chapter 112
112 This Woman was Crying Again
Zhang Li Xue returned to the room after speaking to Bai Qi. When she walked in, Fang Su Jin was lying on her stomach, watching her favorite drama.
The girl stretched up her hand to grab a few tissue papers before she blew her nose.
Hearing the movement, Fang Su Jin looked up and smiled. “You’re back.” She pressed the pause button, deciding to concentrate on her friend. Fang Su Jin wiped the tears from her eyes. Then, she looked up with excitement.
At this time, gossiping was more important than catching up with her drama.
“So...” The grin on Fang Su Jin’s face widened and her eyes turned crescent. “What is it between you and that young doctor?”
The corner of her lips began to twitch.
Zhang Li Xue suspected that her friend has been watching too much drama that she began to think too much.
Actually, there was nothing much going on during her talk with Bai Qi. That man had apologized for his previous words and told her that he wanted to continue being her friend.
Since the man did not mind befriending her, Zhang Li Xue thought that she should give him another chance.
.....
He was easy to get along with and had never pretended in front of her.
During the short time that she had interacted with him, Zhang Li Xue found that Bai Qi is a good person. Otherwise, her Uncle Qi Zheng would not choose him as his student.
Before they parted, Bai Qi had invited her over to his apartment again.
He said that Bai Xi Xi missed her and they could use the basketball court to have a match.
Then, she had agreed.
Zhang Li Xue recalled the match in her Uncle Qi Zheng’s backyard and how Bai Qi had gotten past her defense. She admired his talent a lot. It has been a long time since she was that happy after a match. She couldn’t help but look forward to their next meeting.
“What are you thinking? Doctor Bai is only a friend,” Zhang Li Xue said, helplessly. “Previously, he helped me when I was hospitalized due to appendicitis.”
Fang Su Jin narrowed her eyes. “Really?” Obviously, she did not believe in Li Xue’s words.
“Mm...” Zhang Li Xue nodded. She had already been thinking of what she should say if Fang Su Jin asked her about it.
“Then, why are you acting suspiciously?”
“Isn’t my brother and the triplets around?” Zhang Li Xue said. “Doctor Bai is Uncle Qi’s student. I just didn’t want to make things difficult for him.”
Fang Su Jin thought that this reason was very acceptable. After all, Zhan Yi Hai was a very strange guy. Who knows what would that guy do to that harmless doctor?
Turning around, Fang Su Jin took the medicine that Zhang Yi Hai had given her earlier. “That’s right. Your brother handed this to me. He worries that you would be getting a stomach ache from eating too much.”
Zhang Li Xue looked at the box of medicine. “Mmm... I know. I’m going to take a bath.”
Fang Su Jin watched as her friend walked into the bathroom.
After talking to her friend, Fang Su Jin was no longer interested in continuing her drama. She walked over to the balcony, wanting to take some air and enjoy the night breeze.
Fang Su Jin pushed the sliding door and stared at the dark scenery in front of her.
Her eyes were in a daze.
Somehow, she could not stop thinking that she had met Doctor Bai before. His name and face were a little familiar. However, Zhang Li Xue said that Doctor Bai was someone from S Country. She had never been to that country before.
Could it be that she had met his doppelganger?
Fang Su Jin thought that this reason seem appropriate. Still, she was not very happy with this conclusion.
She still thought that she had known a person called Bai Qi a long time ago...
Just as she was about to turn around and leave, someone from the next door came out to the balcony.
Fang Su Jin met that man’s gaze and thought that her luck was pretty bad recently.
Why would Zhang Yi Hai come out at this time?
Moreover, why was he walking around shirtless? Was he putting on a show?
Fang Su Jin wanted to turn around when she heard him call her name.
“Sister Fang.”
Her steps halted. Fang Su Jin turned and shot him an inquiring look. She tried to focus on his face, but his muscular body could not escape her gaze.
“Have my sister returned?” Zhang Yi Hai asked.
“Uh-huh.” Fang Su Jin nodded. “Your sister is in the bathroom. If you wanted to talk to her, I will tell her once she came out.”
“It’s alright. I just wanted to make sure that she had returned safely.”
“It’s too cold outside. I should get in.” The scene before her was too distracting that she chose to look away. Fang Su Jin thought that it would be better to get away from this strange and scary boy.
However, Zhang Yi Hai had misunderstood her action.
The light on the balcony was dim, but he could still see her face.
This woman was crying again. Was she made out of water? Why was she crying again?
He had thought that the only reason Fang Su Jin seemed to be avoiding him was that she wanted to hide her tears.
Noticing her reddened eyes and tear-stained face made him annoyed.
Fang Su Jin has been his sister’s friend for years. Ever since he was a little boy, he had always seen her around his sister. Since this woman was a good friend of his sister, of course, he should worry for her too.
He was really curious about the person that Fang Su Jin had fallen in love with.
Then, he began to worry about how it would be when his sister found someone she liked.
Although he has been protecting his sister well, Zhang Yi Hai knew that he could not avoid that day when his sister will meet her other half. Sooner or later, she will be married and have a family of her own.
His eyes narrowed.
Zhang Yi Hai made a promise to himself. If that man ever made his sister cry, he would not hesitate to make that man’s life a living hell.
