So You're Such A Doctor Song - Chapter 219
Chapter 219: Aren’t I Handsome?
Song Chuyi, who was sitting in the Song Household living room and chatting with the Songs, looked at this message and his face twitched. He really wanted to tear this Li Shaobin apart.
After the movie ended, Ruan Yang’s assistant brought them to the VIP room.
When they were going in, they happened to run into Xia Junmeng coming out with his assistant. He didn’t even look them in the eye and walked away proudly under the escort of the bodyguards.
“Who is this, looking all powdery and oily-headed?” Li Shaobin didn’t like the look of him at all. He really hadn’t seen someone who acted so arrogant in front of him for a very long time.
“Xia Junmeng.” Li Xiaoxia rolled his eyes. “I hate him too. His acting sucks, yet he still keeps swinging around outside. His fans are exceptionally annoying too.”
In the VIP room, Ruan Yang was removing her makeup. When she saw them coming in, she only waved her hands as a means of greeting them. “Are you guys talking about Xia Junmeng?”
“Yeah.” Seeing that there were only Ruan Yang’s people around in the VIP room, Changqing nodded.
Xiao Zhu said with disdain, “This is nothing. You guys don’t know; this is obviously his first movie, but during the shoot, he put on airs higher than Ruan Yang. He wanted the best accommodations and the best food. During the shoot, he kept messing up and our Ruan Yang had to give in to him. This film was shot in the winter and because of him, Ruan Yang even had frostbite on her hands.”
“What? That’s too much.” Li Xiaoxia said to Li Shaobin indignantly, “Little Uncle, you have to do something to this Xia Junmeng and show him some colors.”
“Why must I show him some colors?” Li Shaobin said lazily as he sat in the chair.
“Look, he didn’t even hold you in regard. Say, you’re a triad boss who moves around the world freely, aren’t you? Isn’t he just a small celebrity? How dare he disregard you. If word of this matter spread, how bad would your reputation be? You can’t even compare to a powdery-faced, oily-headed actor,” Li Xiaoxia said.
Li Shaobin was already not very comfortable. Upon hearing that, he felt worse. “You’re right. I’ll go talk to the media later.”
Changqing, who was standing close to them, overheard their conversation and was speechless.
This Uncle and Nephew were way too wilful.
Ruan Yang turned back after removing her makeup and when she saw Li Shaobin, she was slightly dumbfounded. “This is…”
Li Xiaoxia went up eagerly to block Li Shaobin, explaining passionately, “Sister Ruan Yang, how are you? I’m Li Xiaoxia, a very good friend of Sister Changqing. I’m very pleased to meet you. I’ve really liked you for a very long time.”
Changqing scoffed inside: This little imp. I haven’t known him for long; when did we become good friends?
“Oh, hi.” Ruan Yang lowered her head and smiled as she looked at this cute little handsome boy in front of her. “You’re pretty handsome.”
Li Xiaoxia’s face was flushed red and he said while squirming, “I’m going to grow up to become even more handsome. Sister Ruan Yang, ever since I watched Demon Concubine which you acted in, I’ve been your loyal fan. You look fabulous in period costumes. Simply as beautiful as a fairy. Also, the movie Shine Gloriously after that had me in tears. You brought life to a selfless and noble teacher character. I’ve really… liked you for a very long time.”
The little lad’s dashing body squirmed while his face blushed.
Ruan Yang found him cuter the more she looked at him, lowering her head as she stroked his short hair. “Thank you. Have you all had dinner? Do you want to get something together? I haven’t eaten.”
“No, no, let’s go.” Li Xiaoxia suppressed his urge to jump up.
In the end, Ruan Yang left in Li Shaobin’s car. Changqing and Ruan Yang sat at the back while Li Shaobin and his nephew sat in front.
Ruan Yang looked at Li Shaobin, who was in front, and said to Changqing, “Is this the person I saw previously?”
“Yeah, didn’t you want him to dress more formally?” Changqing asked with a grin.
“Indeed, fine clothes make the man. He’s not bad.” The corners of Ruan Yang’s lips curled up into a sexy curve.
Changqing was proud of herself. Getting praise from Ruan Yang, who had seen countless good-looking men—it really seemed not bad at all. She was just about to say that she chose the clothes when a call from Song Chuyi came.
“Chuchu…”
“Where are you?” Song Chuyi started. His voice was cold.
Changqing was already used to his weird tone. “Intending to go for supper with Shaobin and Ruan Yang. We haven’t had dinner yet.”
“Where are you eating? I’ll come over.”
“I don’t know.” Changqing peeked her head at the front and looked at Li Shaobin. “Where are we eating? Chuchu said he’s coming over.”
Li Shaobin had already expected Song Chuyi to be unhappy and snorted. “What’s he coming over for?”
Changqing really feared for him. She could even feel the dense sense of chill coming from Song Chuyi through the phone. “Tell him, is he itching for a beating?”
“Er…” Changqing was in a difficult position.
Luckily, Li Shaobin started, “Tell him we’re going to the one that we frequent.”
Before Changqing could say anything, Song Chuyi already heard and said, “I got it.”
Once the phone call ended, Changqing suddenly felt that she had become the third party between Chuchu and Li Shaobin inexplicably,
The supper place that Li Shaobin was referring to was actually not very far from Xi Yu Theater. It was in a bar where there was a live band downstairs and the open space upstairs was where people drank and had supper. The owner was also well-acquainted with Li Shaobin. When they got upstairs, he said softly by Li Shaobin’s ear, “There seems to be reporters following by the side of the road.”
Li Shaobin raised his eyebrows. The reporters nowadays were quite formidable. They could even tail them despite being so careful.
He had an idea. If he was caught with his woman, Xin Ziao, that little b*stard, would flip.
After thinking that, he quickly slowed down his pace and cosied up to Ruan Yang with a grin, even resting his arm over her shoulders naturally. “Beauty Ruan, it’s really been a very, very long time since we last met. Be careful—the stairs here are a little steep. Walk slowly.”
Ruan Yang looked at him disapprovingly. She was the most annoyed by people touching her shoulders. Just as she was about to open her mouth, Li Xiaoxia, who was in front, immediately stopped in his tracks unhappily. He turned back to pull Li Shaobin’s pig trotters away. However, because he stopped too suddenly, Ruan Yang, who was behind him, didn’t manage to stop in time and collided with Li Xiaoxia. Her body swayed and she fell down the stairs.
“Aye, aye, aye, be careful.” Li Shaobin reacted fast enough and subconsciously moved behind her to catch her with his body. Ruan Yang fell into his embrace. He wasn’t stable either and just when both of them were about to fall backwards together, he quickly grabbed onto the railing by the side to finally stabilize himself.
Because of this little episode, the four people were scared out of their wits.
Ruan Yang’s flawless face was pale from fright. She even thought her acting career would be ruined. “Thank you, thank you.”
Li Shaobin helped her stand back up. Her shoulders were really as soft as water.
He wanted to compliment himself initially but upon thinking that his nephew almost got into trouble, he glared at Li Xiaoxia unhappily. “Look at you, how are you walking? If you were any clumsier, you would’ve knocked your goddess down the stairs.”
Li Xiaoxia patted his little heart with all his strength. His dashing little face was dumb from the shock. “Sister Ruan Yang, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it.”
“It’s okay.” Ruan Yang stroked his little head. “I was careless too and knocked into you. It’s not your fault. Let’s go up and not stand here.”
Their small group went upstairs. Li Shaobin took a menu and ordered a few signature dishes he would always have whenever he came. After that, he tossed the menu aside. “Let’s just order these.”
“Young Master Li, you don’t seem to have asked Changqing and my opinion.” Ruan Yang swept her hair which was hanging down. She would’ve let it go if it was any other time. However, today, she was really famished and wanted to have some dishes she liked too.
Li Shaobin was dumbfounded. Changqing nodded in agreement. Li Xiaoxia quickly pushed the menu over to Ruan Yang and said, “Sister Ruan Yang, don’t lower yourself to his level. He’s always been like this since young. That’s why he can’t find a girlfriend.”
Li Shaobin was furious. “Am I your Little Uncle or are you my Little Uncle? What do you mean since young? You make it sound as though you know me very well.”
Li Xiaoxia ignored him completely and sat in front of Ruan Yang, talking to her. “Sister Ruan Yang, what do you like to eat? Order as much as you want; it’s okay.”
Li Shaobin opened a can of beer by himself angrily. He was really unhappy.
He had decided to not foot the bill later and let Li Xiaoxia do it.
Ruan Yang glanced at him and found it funny.
The dishes were served successively. The four of them were famished and started with a bowl of egg fried rice.
When Song Chuyi entered, he saw the four holding a bowl of egg fried rice each, as though competing against each other to see who could eat the fastest. He rubbed his glabella and felt that his wife should stay far away from Li Shaobin in the future. She was already silly enough and if she were to hang out with another silly person, wouldn’t she become sillier?
“Chuchu, you’re here. Quick, look at Shaobin—isn’t he almost unrecognizable?” Changqing said as she pointed happily at Li Shaobin.
Li Shaobin raised his chin proudly and while he was at it, he brushed his styled, short hair.
Song Chuyi frowned and took a few looks at him, saying lightly, “He’s a lot better than in the past.”
“I was the one who chose his clothes.” Changqing felt as though she had received tremendous encouragement and said with a wide smile, “Isn’t my taste really good?”
“Yeah, it is.” A light shadow flashed past Song Chuyi’s dark and lonely pupils.
She actually dared to choose clothes for another man? See if I don’t teach her a lesson tonight when we get back.
Changqing was completely clueless. Ruan Yang tugged at her, saying with a smile, “Changqing, could you help me get more egg fried rice?”
“Hey, don’t eat your fill first.” Li Shaobin took a sip of iced water and said with his mouth full, “There’s still a few dishes that haven’t been served yet.”
“Yeah.” Song Chuyi glanced at their rice bowls. “I almost thought you were here to eat egg fried rice.”
“I’m too hungry.” Ruan Yang said with a smile, “Dr. Song, where did you come from?”
Song Chuyi’s hand, which was holding the chopsticks, paused for a while as he said lightly, “From home.”
“I thought Auntie Zhang said you didn’t go back today?” Changqing asked casually.
“The Song Household.”
Changqing was dumbfounded. She lowered her head and didn’t say another word.
Song Chuyi glanced at her apologetically. When the hairy crab was served, he took the initiative to deshell it for her.
Seeing that he had a hard time deshelling the crab, she pinched some crabmeat and stuffed it into his mouth occasionally.
Li Shaobin lowered his head to look at himself wearing a pair of gloves, deshelling the crab for himself and sighed enviously. “Are the two of you trying to torture me on purpose?”
