So You're Such A Doctor Song - Chapter 403

Chapter 403: You Kept Kissing Me For No Reason. I Was Completely Confused By That

When all the snacks were served, Ruan Yang ate a little of every dish but didn’t find them good. The boss had changed and so had the taste. Besides, it was cold in the eatery because there was no heater inside.

She came out after paying the bill and when she saw Li Shaobin still squatting there, rubbing his hands together, she sighed helplessly. “Why didn’t you come in? It must’ve been very cold outside.”

“I know my place. I didn’t go in to avoid getting in the way of you reminiscing about your ex-boyfriend.” Li Shaobin put his hands in his pockets. Although Guangdong’s weather could be considered cool, it was still very cold at night.

Ruan Yang glanced at him and smiled bitterly. “Cut it out. Do you think I’m still in the mood to reminisce about my past boyfriend right now?”

Li Shaobin thought about it and agreed. “You have nowhere to go, right? I just booked a hotel. You have to find a place to sleep at night no matter what.”

“I’ll get some food with you first,” Ruan Yang said.

“At least you have some conscience.” The corners of Li Shaobin’s lips curled up. “I think I saw a mutton hotpot shop earlier on the way here.”

Before he even finished speaking, he saw Ruan Yang’s face falling. He said, “Don’t tell me you don’t even eat mutton hotpot?”

“It’s not that; I just don’t want to go into those kinds of hotpot shops.” Ruan Yang frowned. “Every time I go in and see the sheep and dogs locked up in cages, I find them very pitiful and I can’t eat in peace. Go on if you want to eat it. I’ll go to the hotel first. Which hotel is it?”

Li Shaobin felt gloomy. What a waste if she didn’t eat dog meat or mutton hotpot? “Ruan Yang, you’re so weird. If you’re so picky about your meat, you should just go vegan and be a nun.”

“Sure. Why don’t I be a nun? That’s a really good idea.” Ruan Yang took the suitcase he was holding and walked to the side of the road, getting ready to hail a cab.

Li Shaobin quickly followed behind her. “Forget it. If you’re not going, there’s no point in me going alone. I’ll go to the hotel with you. There should be food at the hotel, but you must keep me company while I eat.”

“… Alright.” After Ruan Yang said that, she saw the tall man beside her breaking into a smile.

…

The hotel he booked was naturally the best five-star hotel in town. Even at night, their Western restaurant was still open. After Ruan Yang returned her room to put her luggage down, she accompanied him to the restaurant on the top floor.

Li Shaobin watched the woman in front of him sipping on her coffee as he ate some foie gras. He said, “Watch out for insomnia—you’re drinking so much coffee so late at night.”

“So be it.” Ruan Yang propped her chin on one hand and looked out the window. Her lips were slightly thick and full. When she spaced out, she exuded sexiness.

Li Shaobin sipped some red wine. “Are you still thinking of Xin Ziao?”

“No. I’m thinking about my parents.” Ruan Yang’s eyes were filled with melancholy. “I don’t think they’ll forgive me any time soon.”

“Yeah, why don’t you return to Northern City with me?” Li Shaobin quickly said. “I believe they will naturally forgive you when their anger’s subsided after a couple of years.”

Ruan Yang’s pretty eyes swept past him. “My friend in Norway gave me a call two days ago, asking me if I’m still going back. I left many things behind there. I was thinking if I should just go back to Norway.”

Li Shaobin swallowed his foie gras in a hurry and said quickly, “No, if you return to Norway, what would happen to me?”

Ruan Yang was stunned. She lifted her brows, unknowingly giving off a little sexiness. “Weren’t you here on a business trip?”

Li Shaobin glared at her with embarrassment. He didn’t think she actually bought what he said. After all, she was so smart.

Ruan Yang was filled with melancholy and other mixed emotions, while at the same time, her heart raced a little. “I’m currently a woman with a really bad reputation. You…”

“It doesn’t matter. I’m not someone who cares about reputation anyway.” Li Shaobin pouted.

“I heard your family is very wealthy. I don’t think you’re any worse off than Xin Ziao, right?” Ruan Yang continued. “Since Xin Ziao’s family couldn’t accept me, I’m afraid it would be the same for your family too. Did you forget what that man said about me when we went to the hospital last time? There aren’t many men who haven’t seen my nude photos in this day and age. How many people wouldn’t think that I was a mistress? Could your parents accept someone like me?”

“Ruan Yang, can you not say things like this?” Li Shaobin interrupted her with a frown. “Am I, Li Shaobin, such a superficial person? I don’t care what happened to you in the past. In any case, if we were to get together, the past is in the past. Besides, I would make sure to knock out all the teeth of whoever dares to say anything about that in front of me. As for my family, you don’t have to worry about it at all. They’re even fine with me being with a man. In my house, no one can make me do anything. I do whatever I want to. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Song Chuyi. He knows everything. I’ve been single for so long that my family members thought… I wasn’t straight.”

Ruan Yang opened her mouth a little in shock. She didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Didn’t you say you had a lot of past relationships? That you had many women?”

Li Shaobin’s face flushed red. Alright, he jumped into a trap he set for himself. Now he was regretting it. “I was just… boasting. I don’t have any woman. Ruan Yang, I really like you. Look, even the wallpaper on my phone is your picture.”

He unlocked his phone, slightly embarrassed, and there was a photo of Ruan Yang with her hair flying in the wind.

Ruan Yang looked at it blankly for a while before she lowered her gaze slowly.

Li Shaobin also lowered his head with disappointment. He had already been so shameless. To think there was still no hope.

However, he wasn’t one to give up easily. He was just chasing women. He really didn’t understand or know how Xin Ziao did it, but he always wasn’t as popular with women.

He finished the food on the table like he was eating wax. Ruan Yang had also finished her coffee and she stood up. “You’re done eating. Let’s go then.”

Li Shaobin paid the bill and the two went upstairs quietly.

In the past, Li Shaobin always went on and on about different topics with Changqing, but now, he actually felt so terrible he couldn’t say a single word.

He walked her to her room before he said, “Turn in early. I’m going back to my room.”

He turned to walk away. Just after he took a few steps, Ruan Yang called him. “Li Shaobin…”

“What?” He turned around.

Ruan Yang watched him and blinked. Suddenly, she walked over slowly and tiptoed.

An unbelievable thought flashed past Li Shaobin’s mind. He realized that she had kissed him.

“You…” He stared wide-eyed at her as he stuttered. Before he could finish speaking, her lips, which had the fragrance of coffee, left his.

She took a step back and stood a meter away from him, looking at him with a smile. “I wanted to kiss you earlier, but there were people at the cafe.”

Li Shaobin’s lips moved. He felt as though thousands of horses were galloping inside.

F*ck… f*ck, who can tell me what exactly happened?

What did she mean by that kiss?

A woman’s heart was too complicated. He really couldn’t understand.

“Thank you. If it weren’t for you today, I don’t know how I would’ve turned out. Goodnight. Turn in early.” Ruan Yang smiled and turned back to unlock her room door with her card.

“Wait.” Li Shaobin called her back. He asked while blushing, “Why did you kiss me again just now?”

“Are you dumb? You don’t even know that?” Ruan Yang didn’t turn back. She merely answered while clenching her teeth.

“If you don’t tell me, I’ll take it that you’ve accepted me,” Li Shaobin said with a pout.

Ruan Yang bit her lip. This man had a terribly low EQ.

“But, it was just a peck. It’s not enough,” Li Shaobin grumbled softly.

She clenched her teeth and turned around. “What do you want then?”

“Of course it’s…” Before Li Shaobin could finish speaking, two hotel guests suddenly walked over from the side of the hallway.

Ruan Yang slammed the door shut.

Li Shaobin stared blankly at the shut door for a very long time before he turned around disappointedly to return to his room.

He showered absent-mindedly and lay on the bed absent-mindedly, tossing and turning around, thinking about that kiss. He couldn’t fall asleep.

There were several times when he wanted to get up and see Ruan Yang, but upon thinking about how rough her day had been, he couldn’t bear to disturb her.

What to do?

How frustrating.

When he finally fell asleep, he didn’t sleep well. He kept dreaming, sometimes dreaming that he was kissed by Ruan Yang, sometimes rolling around in bed with her.

The entire night, his mind was filled with impure things.

…

The doorbell woke him up.

He sat up with his head throbbing.

He climbed up gloomily to open the door. The female lead of his dreams last night was standing outside. She pointed at her watch and said, “It’s almost eleven but you’re not awake yet?”

“I had insomnia last night,” Li Shaobin said unhappily, “It was all because of your kiss.”

Ruan Yang: “…”

“You haven’t told me what you meant by that kiss,” Li Shaobin continued to say grumpily.

“Wasn’t it just that?” Ruan Yang blushed because of him.

“You keep kissing me for no reason. I’m completely confused by that.” Li Shaobin was bewildered.

“It means… getting together.” She bit her lip. She had never met a man so unaware.

“Get… getting together.” Li Shaobin stuttered. Those two words felt so incredible but they had been so out of reach to him. His melancholy suddenly dispersed like the clouds. Everything became so clear to him right now. His world suddenly felt like it was spring. “Since we’re together, then how is a kiss enough? We got to do something like a french kiss.”
