So You're Such A Doctor Song - Chapter 102
Chapter 102: Chuyi Is Changqing’s Husband 2
“No.” Yan Lei quickly waved his hand. “Chuyi is Changqing’s husband and they got married not long ago.”
“Cling clang.” The fork in Fu Yu’s hand fell onto his plate.
He had always been good at disguising his feelings, but at that moment, his handsome face had never looked worse. It was black for a while then white for a while. Perhaps it was because he didn’t dare to accept the truth.
He liked Changqing. He had liked her ever since he was young.
They were childhood sweethearts. He was like her brother and also a lover.
He watched her crawl stupidly on the floor all the way until she grew up into a beautiful young lady.
He made a mistake—he left.
But she was so foolish, so sincere and he thought she would keep waiting for him in the same spot.
Even though she rejected him plainly before, he couldn’t believe Changqing would fall for another.
He thought that as long as he put in more effort, she would still return to his side.
But someone just told him that Changqing was already married.
How could he believe that?
He suddenly clenched his fists and stood up, his back shaking slightly. He was using all his energy to control his emotions.
However, Song Chuyi was cutting a sandwich into a small piece unhurriedly, saying composedly with his lips curled, “I wanted to tell you yesterday but it got busy in the hospital after that and I didn’t have time to tell you. Mr. Fu, do you mind?”
He was feeling quite terrible before, but now that he saw Fu Yu looking like he wanted to tear someone into pieces, his mood suddenly improved.
Perhaps when Changqing woke up in a while, he could still talk to her peacefully.
Yan Lei coughed slightly and continued, “Chuyi, Fu Yu grew up with Changqing and is also Changxin’s classmate. He and Changxin looked after Changqing since they were young like brother and sister. Her temperament now is due to their indulgence.”
Song Chuyi lifted his lips. “Dad, are you sure it wasn’t due to your indulgence?”
He was rarely so humorous and that made Yan Lei laugh out loud in embarrassment.
The corners of Fu Yu’s lips also twitched but he looked exceptionally bad. He couldn’t bring himself to smile at all right now.
“Uncle, can I have a chat with you alone for a while?” Fu Yu suddenly asked.
Yan Lei looked at Song Chuyi awkwardly and upon seeing his generous attitude, he nodded. “Chuyi, eat first. I haven’t seen Fu Yu in a long time, and there might be some personal things he wants to talk to me about.”
“That’s okay,” Song Chuyi replied gently.
“Fu Yu, follow me to the study.” Yan Lei brought him upstairs.
Fu Yu walked past a door shut tightly on the second floor and paused for a few seconds before catching up to Yan Lei again.
When the door was closed, Yan Changqing said in a gentle tone immediately, “Fu Yu, I heard some things about you and Changqing in the past but it’s been so many years. You left for so many years, after all. Changqing had to get married. It’s not strange for her to have met another person she likes. You’re doing very well right now. I’m sure you can find an exceptional woman. To be honest, you’re the owner of a company now. Changqing is always muddle-headed and she definitely wouldn’t be able to become the wife of a company owner.”
“Uncle, I want to know how long Changqing has been married to Song Chuyi.” The dense evening mist in Fu Yu’s eyes was deeply worried.
“Not too long, less than a month,” Yan Lei said, “Fu Yu, you…”
“Uncle, I suspect the reason why Song Chuyi married Changqing was to use her to take revenge on me.” Fu Yu suddenly snorted coldly. “What?” Yan Lei was in a daze.
“Uncle, you don’t know this, but Song Chuyi had a girlfriend he dated for more than a year. Her name was Guan Ying.” Fu Yu frowned and tensed up his handsome face while saying, “Guan Ying abandoned Song Chuyi to hook up with me so that I could help her in her career. Song Chuyi always knew I liked Changqing, so he enticed her into marriage to take revenge on me and also to get revenge on Guan Ying. If you think about the timing, Song Chuchu also fell out with Guan Ying last month. Uncle, this definitely wasn’t a coincidence and I’m also not lying to you. You just have to investigate the matter slightly and you’ll know I’m telling the truth.”
Yan Lei stared at him with a heavy gaze for a while before turning away to light up his pipe, smoking slowly while in deep thought.
Fu Yu was anxious. “Uncle, Changqing is too naive. I’m really afraid she was cheated…”
“Alright, Fu Yu, I understand what you said. I will get to the bottom of this,” Yan Lei puffed out a mouthful of smoke towards the window and interrupted him slowly. “Let’s head down. Changqing should be awake soon.”
In the dining area, Song Chuyi had just finished his breakfast. Fu Yu walked down with Yan Lei. Fu Yu’s complexion didn’t look good and Yan Lei seemed to be in deep thought.
“Dad, I’ll go up to check on Changqing.” Song Chuyi stood up.
Yan Lei nodded, looking at him with a strange gaze.
Song Chuyi walked upstairs uprightly.
Fu Yu watched his back as it disappeared in the hallway and clenched his fists tightly.
In the room, Changqing had woken up not long ago and had taken off her pyjamas. She was meddling with the clasp on her bra when she suddenly heard the door opening from the outside.
She suddenly put her pyjamas back on in a hurry and covered herself with the blanket.
“You’re up.” Song Chuyi put the key back into his pocket. A smile hung on his handsome face but the light of the smile didn’t seem to reach his eyes which were staring at Changqing, making her feel inexplicably uneasy.
However, after thinking about it, why should she feel uneasy? He should be the one who felt uneasy. He was the one who lied to her when he was obviously with Guan Ying.
Thinking about the harmonious scene from yesterday, Changqing still felt a tinge of sourness in her heart as though she had eaten an unripe plum.
Song Chuyi sat in the velvet chair by the bed and looked at her sharply with his legs crossed.
Changqing wasn’t done with her bra and didn’t dare to move, only feeling inexplicably uneasy with Song Chuyi looking like this. Could it be that he thought it through after spending time with Guan Ying yesterday and wanted to end things with her?
The uneasiness from within surged up again and again.
The two of them were deadlocked.
Song Chuyi undid the first two buttons of his shirt to breathe before putting his right hand on his thigh and tapping gently while saying, “You were good friends with Guan Ying and lived in the same dormitory in university?”
Changqing’s heart lifted to her throat all a sudden. She took long, deep breaths.
He knows. How does he know?
Finished. Will he hate me?
Changqing pulled the blanket higher while flustered and answered while trembling, “Yes.”
“Did you already know I was Guan Ying’s ex-boyfriend?” Song Chuyi’s face sank like water and he was suppressing the anger in his heart, continuing to question her lightly, “Was your gynaecology appointment our first meeting?”
“… No.” Changqing shook her head, and she licked her lips nervously. Perhaps it was because she was too nervous so she could only answer his questions robotically. “That night at ‘Sound of Snow’… I… I met you before but I went over a little late. You knocked into me when you were leaving, but you were in a fit of anger then and didn’t see me.”
Song Chuyi remembered. He was indeed in a fit of anger and did feel that he knocked into someone. To think it was her.
He stood up, rubbing his brows and walking around the room once. He suddenly stopped by the bed and looked at Changqing ridiculously. “Then how did you feel to let your good friend’s ex-boyfriend check you down there back at the hospital?”
Changqing’s face went pale and didn’t hold it in. Her eyes reddened.
It seemed worse than receiving a big, tight slap across her face.
“Do you think I wanted it?” Changqing was choking with anger. “If I had the choice, I wouldn’t have wanted you to do a check-up for me. You weren’t the one I had an appointment with, but I really felt unwell and I didn’t have time to go to the hospital every day. My sister also strongly recommended you, saying that she would have to get an unmarried, perverted doctor to give me a check-up otherwise. I was scared… so I could only… only…”
Changqing lowered her head, wiping her face with the blanket and leaving a wet trail behind. “I didn’t want to see you again after that but I didn’t think I would run into you again during the blind date. When you said you were willing to marry me, it was when my dad’s company was in a crisis. What right do you have to criticize me like this? When we got married, we agreed to not interfere with each other’s business. It was you who kept teasing me out of nowhere. Do you think I feel good now that things have come to this point? Do you think I wanted it?”
“Did you not want it?” Song Chuyi’s pupils suddenly became gloomy and dark, staring straight at her.
Changqing covered her face with the blanket, biting her lips without saying a word.
“I’m asking you.” Song Chuyi grabbed her arm and pulled her out from the covers.
Changqing didn’t stand stably and fell before him.
Changqing covered her chest insecurely, holding back her tears as she exploded from what happened. “I’m unhappy that my husband is my good friend’s ex-boyfriend. I didn’t want to have anything to do with you; I just wanted to lead our own lives but you kept approaching me and I couldn’t help but fall for you. Now I feel full of guilt every day. I feel like I’ve let Guan Ying down…”
All this while, she’d been worried that Song Chuyi would find out about her and Guan Ying.
Worried that Guan Ying would find out she was married to Song Chuyi.
She was fearful and flustered every day and can only use escape as a way out.
Now that it was known, there was no need to escape anymore.
She stared at him with tears welled up in her eyes hatefully.
Song Chuyi was stupefied. He finally understood why she had been so temperamental all this while.
He loosened his grip and let go of Changqing, saying, “You should feel guilty. Your guilt should’ve made it so you didn’t hide it from me.”
Changqing pressed her lips together. “If I told you right from the start when you just fell out of love, you would’ve killed me.”
Song Chuyi was furious. “I’m not that scary.”
“You are.”
Song Chuyi “…”
He took a deep breath and supported his forehead with his hand. “Let me tell you—with regards to my relationship with Guan Ying, she was the one who did me wrong. In what way did you let her down?”
“You don’t understand.” Changqing looked away, not really wanting to say that Guan Ying wanted to make up with him. “You two were together for so long, after all. The feelings between you and Guan Ying must be deep.”
Song Chuyi scoffed. “I’m sorry, I’m not so open-hearted to forgive a woman who made me a cuckold.”
Changqing bit her lip. Should she tell him that nothing actually happened between Guan Ying and Fu Yu…?
“But if I had known that you were good friends with Guan Ying, I wouldn’t have gotten married to you,” Song Chuyi hesitated for a while before suddenly saying.
Changqing was stupefied. Something she clearly understood still made her feel as though she was stabbed by a knife when he said the words.
She fought back her tears and said, “It isn’t too late to regret it now; you can get a divorce. I won’t… pester you…”
