So You're Such A Doctor Song - Chapter 101
Chapter 101: Chuyi Is Changqing’s Husband 1
Ruan Yang sighed with a smile. “You would still be praising others while being sold.”
“I’m telling the truth—he helped me time and time again and even though he’s usually fierce towards me, he treats me well…”
“But you gave him your most precious first time.” Ruan Yang’s tone was still gentle but her words hit the nail on the head. “A man wouldn’t be nice to you for no reason unless you gave him some benefits. For example, you let him kiss you, hug you… or went to bed with him. You gave him what’s most important to you, so he would also naturally reciprocate by treating you well. On the contrary, if you always rejected him and refused to let him touch you, after a period of time, he would slowly withdraw all his niceness…”
Changqing frowned as she listened.
She subconsciously disliked the way Ruan Yang described a relationship so straightforwardly… or perhaps, realistically.
“You have much to learn about the matters of the heart,” Ruan Yang said, “You had a crush on Fu Yu but had yet to be in a relationship after all. You think of love too idealistically, like a fairy tale.”
“Ruan Yang, is the one you’re with right now not good?” Changqing suddenly said while feeling uncomfortable.
“I can’t say he isn’t good. I can only say that perhaps I love him more.” Ruan Yang laughed in a low tone lazily. “Look, you’re already unhappy after I criticized Dr. Song a little, but I kind of admire him after seeing how he carried you and said those words to the reporters in the afternoon. This man seems more responsible and has good medical ethics, and he has a kind heart.”
“… really?” Changqing’s heart suddenly overflowed with joy.
“You become happy after I praise him. Changqing, you’re so silly.” Ruan Yang’s voice paused for a while. “… Men like this can be good, but they have their bad points too.”
“Ruan Yang, you’re making me more confused.” Changqing felt increasingly insecure.
“Whatever it is… if you let Guan Ying have him, I won’t support that.” Ruan Yang changed the topic. “Firstly, she was the one who abandoned Song Chuyi in the first place. Since she didn’t want him before, why would she want to turn back now? Simple. It means she realized Song Chuchu isn’t simply a doctor and might have a strong background which would also aid her career. Although it isn’t nice of me to talk about Guan Ying like this, this is my understanding of her. Even if she really likes Song Chuyi, she wouldn’t be so silly to give up her future to choose a doctor for a man if he couldn’t help her in some way.”
Changqing was astonished. “I suddenly remember… when we attended the dinner party before, Guan Ying saw that Song Chuyi was on good terms with Zhan Mingwei.”
“Looks like my guess wasn’t wrong. Zhan Mingwei is the chief of the broadcasting station. Song Chuyi must have a strong background to become friends with someone like Zhan Mingwei. Only, he hid it from Guan Ying when they were together.” Ruan Yang nodded, “Song Chuyi was with Guan Ying for a year and didn’t tell her about his family background. There are two possible reasons. Firstly, perhaps he never thought of marrying Guan Ying—their relationship was only for fun. Secondly, he might’ve disliked women wanting to marry him because of his family background and wanted to find a simple and pure woman as his wife, so he hid it from Guan Ying. In my opinion, according to Song Chuyi’s character, it should’ve been the latter. Once Guan Ying passed his test, he would’ve proposed to Guan Ying at a suitable time. However, it was a pity Guan Ying cheated on him. She must be feeling very regretful right now. She picked up sesame and lost a watermelon, and in the end, she was left with nothing.”
“If Guan Ying finds out I picked up the watermelon in the end…” Changqing muttered in shock. Ruan Yang was indeed meticulous and could easily see through all of this.
“A lost watermelon is free, not to mention a human.” Ruan Yang didn’t agree with her opinion. “Besides, even if you really let Guan Ying have Song Chuyi, Song Chuyi himself might not choose Guan Ying. He isn’t stupid. Don’t you think he could tell what Guan Ying’s motive was? Even if he agreed, his family would never agree unless he liked her a lot. No man would choose a woman who betrayed him.”
Changqing subconsciously thought of Song Chuyi’s brother and her body shrunk.
“Therefore, don’t rush to decide on certain things. Wait to see how things go first,” Ruan Yang said finally, ‘Guan Ying’s family’s situation is really pitiful but that wasn’t your fault. As friends, we’re just there to help her when she needs it, giving her our care and concern. Furthermore, Song Chuyi and you are legally married. If you want a divorce, have you thought about your family…”
“Let me give you another example—if you let Guan Ying have Song Chuyi and the two of them became a couple, could you still face Guan Ying calmly? You would be rushing to hide from her…”
After chatting with Ruan Yang, Changqing seemed to be less confused and lost than she was before.
It was as though she had suddenly found a sense of direction after lingering in a thick fog for a long time.
It was true—she was legally married to Song Chuyi.
If she were to get a divorce, Yan Lei would be furious and besides, Song Huaisheng would definitely be extremely disappointed in her.
Besides, she couldn’t imagine how life would look after Song Chuyi and Guan Ying got together. She wasn’t so big-hearted that she could live with it.
It seemed no matter what she did, she would end up in a conflict with Guan Ying.
As she thought about it, Changqing fell asleep.
The next morning, at 7 o’clock.
Yan Lei was listening to music leisurely in the courtyard while practising Tai Chi. Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
Within two minutes, the guard ran in saying, “There’s someone by the name of Fu Yu who said he wished to pay you a visit.”
Yan Lei was astounded. He switched the music off and said, “Let him in.”
After Yan Lei returned to the villa to wipe off his sweat and instructed the housekeeper to make a pot of tea, Fu Yu walked in from outside.
“Uncle, you really look younger and younger.” Fu Yu smiled and looked at Yan Lei in a complicated way. When he first found out Yan Lei and Shen Lu had something going on, he was furious, but upon seeing Yan Lei again after so many years wearing a set of cotton, full white traditional Han attire looking energetic, it was no wonder his mother hadn’t forgotten him after so many years.
“What are you saying? You, on the other hand, have grown a lot.” Yan Lei laughed out loud and got Auntie Zhang to pour him a cup of Long Jing Tea. “I heard Changxin mention you. You’re the owner of a listed company now, right? How capable. Even better than your dad back in those days.”
“Actually, I’ve been back in Northern City for quite some time. I should’ve paid you a visit earlier but my Mom was in the hospital doing surgery before…”
“I know.” Yan Lei waved his hand. “I heard from Changxin. Has your Mom been discharged from the hospital?”
“She was discharged a couple of days ago. I hired a nurse for her and she’s currently recuperating in the Northern City countryside,” Fu Yu replied politely with a cup of tea in his hands.
Yan Lei nodded and sighed. “Your Mom really had it tough in this life. You’ve got to be filial to her. She put all her heart and soul into you her entire life. Don’t just think about working and earning money—you still have to spend time with her. Actually, at your Mom’s age, money isn’t that important to her. She needs care and concern from you more.”
Fu Yu was slightly moved. His own father didn’t even remind him about things like that, but these words came out of Yan Lei’s mouth unexpectedly.
Was he wrong back then? If he didn’t insist on Shen Lu going to the States with him and encouraged his parents to be together, perhaps she would’ve been happier and wouldn’t have grown a tumor in her brain from being depressed.
No…
He quickly rejected this thought. If that was the case, he would’ve become siblings with Changqing. That wouldn’t do.
“Uncle, rest assured. I will take good care of my Mom.” Fu Yu changed his sitting position. “I saw in an Internet video that Changqing got injured at the hospital. How is she now? Is she still sleeping?”
“She might still be sleeping.” Yan Lei laughed out loud once again. “She has some minor injuries, but she’s alright.”
Fu Yu felt more assured after hearing that. “She’s a public figure, after all. I think it’s safer to hire some bodyguards.”
“I thought so too.” Yan Lei asked, “Have you had breakfast?”
Fu Yu shook his head.
“Let’s have breakfast together. Our housekeeper’s breakfast isn’t bad.” Yan Lei smiled while leading him towards the dining area.
Auntie Zhang brought out another set of cutlery.
Fu Yu looked at the milk on the table and smiled slightly. “I remember Changqing used to hate drinking milk especially and would always give me all the milk Grandma Yan gave her.”
Auntie Zhang said with a smile, “Changqing likes to drink milk quite a lot now.”
“Really?” Fu Yu was astonished.
Auntie Zhang said with indulging love, “She said that drinking milk can improve and whiten the skin and she has to drink milk every day.”
After hearing that, the corners of Fu Yu’s lips grew with a smile. “Changqing has always been vain since she was young. She used to love wearing the yellow dress my Mom gave her and she would wear it every day. She wouldn’t even let Grandma Yan take it off to wash. After that, my mom could only give her another one before she would give in.”
“Haha, is that so? I didn’t know about that.” Yan Lei also laughed out loud upon hearing that.
“What’s the cause of this laughter?” In the morning sun, a handsome figure suddenly walked in. His facial features were clean and perfect. Song Chuyi opened the shoe cabinet and took out his slippers to change.
The smile on Fu Yu’s face froze. The light that gathered in his eyes also sank slowly.
“You’re here early today.” Auntie Zhang welcomed him with a face full of smiles and understood after seeing his blood-shot eyes. “Yo-you had a night shift again?”
“Yeah, there was a chain accident on the highway yesterday and we had our hands full of work, so I had to work overnight last minute.” Song Chuyi walked towards the dining area and when he saw Fu Yu by the dining table, he was astonished.
“Dr. Song, what a coincidence. We meet again.” Fu Yu stood up and held out his hand towards him first.
“Yeah.” Song Chuyi squinted his dark and gloomy eyes, shaking his hand.
Yan Lei said with shock, “Yo-you two know each other?”
“Dr. Song was the chief surgeon for my mom’s surgery,” Fu Yu explained gently. “To think Uncle also knows Dr. Song… it seems like Dr. Song is very familiar with the Yan family.”
Song Chuyi’s lips curled up. He sat at his usual spot when he came over silently.
Yan Lei looked at him and looked at Fu Yu again. A hint of awkwardness and complexity flashed in his eyes. At that moment, Auntie Zhang brought out another new set of cutlery for Song Chuyi and happened to hear Fu Yu’s words, replying naturally, “Of course he’s familiar with them. Mr. Song is CEO Yan’s son-in-law.”
Fu Yu was caught off guard by this reply and was stupefied, subconsciously saying, “Don’t tell me he’s Changxin’s husband?”
