So You're Such A Doctor Song - Chapter 472
Chapter 472: Ruan Yang, Go On. At Most, We’ll All Die Here Together
Duoyao and Guan Ying exchanged glances and they got a little excited. Duoyao seemed exceptionally excited. “Ruan Yang, don’t tell me you’re pregnant?”
“I’m not.” Ruan Yang smiled.
“Then why aren’t you drinking?” Duoyao pouted. She was excited for nothing.
Changqing curled her lips up. She was experienced, after all, so she could tell very quickly. “Is it because you two… didn’t take any preventive measures so you’re afraid you might be pregnant?”
Ruan Yang’s face heated up but she still nodded.
“Wow, then there might be a tiny little seed in you right now.” Duoyao sighed. “It looks like I’m destined to be last.”
“Haha. Didn’t Brother Molun shoot through the condom?” Changqing laughed dirtily.
Guan Ying almost spat out the wine in her mouth. “Changqing, you’re getting dirtier and dirtier.”
“How sinister.” Duoyao rolled her eyes at her.
Indeed, Brother Molun was very aggressive in that aspect and she often couldn’t take it, but it wasn’t that horrifying.
…
After their meal, the four of them went to a spa and chatted in the open-air room. The table was exquisitely decorated with different kinds of snacks and supper.
Jiang Duoyao sat on a chaise lounge by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking out at the vibrant night-life as she sighed. “I remember back when we were in university, we were really poor. We would always think about where we could go out to play during the weekends and every time we wanted to buy something, we would save up our pocket money and pool it together to get it. Even if it was just clothes that cost a few tens or hundreds, we would have to scrimp and save. Sometimes, we were so poor that we could only buy a few pieces of buns to eat with pickled vegetables.”
Everyone fell silent. Ruan Yang walked over to her with a cup of black watermelon juice. It was said that this kind of watermelon cost more than 700 dollars each. “We said that we would become richer and richer and our lives would only get better and better. We’ve been working hard and achieved all this with our hard work. Whenever we get together, it’s not just a few bowls of noodles, fried rice, beer, and a packet of biscuits. We got all the way to where we are from nothing. Hasn’t the journey been quite exciting too?”
“That’s true. We got to where we are from nothing.” A little excitement flashed past Guan Ying’s face. All these years, they had suffered, they had been bullied, and they had been mocked. At this moment, it all seemed like nothing.
—————————-
When they parted, it was already very late at night. Changqing and Duoyao were on the first floor. Yan Molun drove to pick Duoyao up so Changqing hopped on the ride.
Guan Ying was the bridesmaid so she would be staying with Ruan Yang today and they naturally went home together.
At the entrance of the hotel, Yan Molun waited for a while before Changqing came out holding onto a drunk Duoyao. When Yan Molun saw them, he went up immediately to carry Duoyao from Changqing’s arms.
Changqing felt very envious. At this moment, she suddenly missed her Chuchu and was wondering what he was doing.
In the past, it was always Duoyao and the others who were envious of her sweet moments with Chuchu. Now that she was alone, it was her turn to be envious.
She let out a silent sigh.
…
At the car park, when she saw that her sports car was blocked by an Audi without a car plate, she felt her head hurt.
“Hey, how are we supposed to leave like this? This person has such bad manners.” Guan Ying shook her head and held her shoulder. She and Jiang Duoyao drank the most tonight.
Ruan Yang saw the state she was in, so she quickly helped Guan Ying into the car. “Let me call the hotel’s receptionist.”
When she called the receptionist, the staff said she would get the hotel manager to deal with it as quickly as possible since there was no car plate.
After waiting for around four to five minutes, just as Ruan Yang had decided that she was going to give up on driving back, she suddenly heard the sound of leather shoes walking over.
Those familiar footsteps made her heart sink.
She turned back and saw a figure dressed in a black suit walking over proudly with his hands in his pockets. The faint light outlined his impressive features that were flushed red, making him look even more sinister. His eyes were dwelling in the depths of darkness and made it hard for one to fathom what he was thinking, but there was also a hint of drunkenness within.
Ruan Yang froze a little and her brain buzzed. “This car belongs to you?”
“No, but I drove it over.” Xin Ziao glanced at Guan Ying, who was sleeping in her car.
He walked over slowly and Ruan Yang could already smell the alcohol on him. She couldn’t help but take a step back but her path was blocked by the Audi. “Xin Ziao, what do you want?”
“I heard that you’re getting married tomorrow so I wanted to have a chat with you.” Xin Ziao took a step forward and grabbed her arm tightly.
Ruan Yang expected that and kicked him.
“You still love to use this trick.” Xin Ziao grabbed her ankle and pulled her straight into his embrace as he carried her into the car.
“Guan…” Ruan Yang wanted to shout for Guan Ying but he covered her mouth.
After stuffing her in the backseat, Xin Ziao hopped into the driver’s seat quickly and drove off.
“Xin Ziao, stop the car.” Ruan Yang pounced over from behind to grab the steering wheel.
The road was dark and quiet. There weren’t many cars out on the streets. The car swerved left and right on the road and Xin Ziao scoffed. “Ruan Yang, go on. At most, we’ll die here together tonight. Those who don’t know might think that we came out tonight to die together for our love, but you’re getting married tomorrow. Could you bear to die just like that?”
Ruan Yang looked at that handsome face. She used to love him terribly and couldn’t bear to part with him. Now, it was so gloomy that she was starting to feel a little afraid.
She stopped her actions slowly. She didn’t want to die here.
In the past, when Xin Ziao was forced to marry Zhao Zhu, she thought she wouldn’t say no even if he wanted to die with her.
It was a blissful thing to be able to die with someone you loved too.
But right now, she didn’t want to die with him at all. “Xin Ziao, you’ve had a drop too much. Think about your family and your parents.”
“My parents? My parents are already getting a divorce. You should know that.” Xin Ziao laughed coldly. “I’m living with my mom right now and she’s always talking about dying. There’s also Zhao Zhu, who only knows how to kick up a fuss all day long like a madwoman. There isn’t a single bit of peace and quiet at home.”
“Those are your family matters. They have nothing to do with me.” Ruan Yang tried to calm herself down as much as possible. She didn’t want to argue with him while they were on the road late at night. She still had to get married tomorrow. “Besides, you said your mom is always talking about dying, so you should go home earlier all the more. Don’t agitate your mom further.”
“I don’t want to go back. Actually, I can really understand why my dad wants to get a divorce. Ruan Yang, I’m very tired. I don’t like Zhao Zhu at all. I don’t want to marry her. Let’s leave this place together.” Xin Ziao gripped the steering wheel tightly. His eyes were red. “Don’t marry Li Shaobin. I can give you whatever he can give you.”
Ruan Yang felt her heart turn bitter. She thought he must be really drunk. “Xin Ziao, you were the one who made the choice back then, so you have to be responsible for your actions. We’re all adults. Stop the car; I’ve already lost all hope in you. Even though we broke up, you don’t even have the least respect for me in front of others. You said I’m a pair of worn-out shoes in front of your friends in a public setting. From that moment onward, you’d already squandered off the love we once had. There’s already none left.”
“I did that to agitate Li Shaobin on purpose. I wanted him to give up on you.” Xin Ziao clenched his teeth and said, “If I really thought of you that way and looked down on you, would I have come to look for you tonight? I was blinded by jealousy.”
“What you didn’t do was make him give up on me. Instead, you helped me see how good he was and how much he deserves to be cherished,” Ruan Yang said softly. “Ziao, there are a lot of times in life where we will be helpless. We want a lot but we can’t have everything we want. You have to get accustomed to letting go. Just like the way I did in the past. When you announced your marriage to Zhao Zhu, I might’ve appeared calm but I’m the only one who knew how I managed to survive those days. I even felt like dying. I wanted you to turn back, I wanted to beg you, but I knew that once you made up your mind, nothing I did would be of use. You used to be a piece of me but I could only endure the pain and cut you off. It really felt worse than death. I wanted to have you so much but I couldn’t. Now, you understand what I felt but when the wound heals, you will realize that we can still embrace the past and put it down. You can have something else that you couldn’t have before. There isn’t a need for us to be so stubborn.”
“I don’t want anything else. I only want you.” Xin Ziao’s eyes became moist. “Since you loved me so much, why couldn’t you have loved me for a longer time? How could you get married to Li Shaobin so quickly?”
Ruan Yang looked at his profile very seriously and laughed bitterly. “If it wasn’t because I was getting married to Li Shaobin, you probably wouldn’t have appeared like this, right? Because you were so sure that I loved you very deeply and wouldn’t be able to start anew and particularly because you looked down on Li Shaobin. You always thought he couldn’t be compared to you. No matter how long I loved you, we could never be together legitimately. Even if we were to be together, we would have to elope. No smart woman would choose to be with you.”
“Ruan Yang…” Xin Ziao suddenly slammed the steering wheel hard and turned back to glare at her.
Ruan Yang looked at him and smiled lightly. “You should’ve always known that I am a smart person.”
