In the afternoon, Ji Yuanyuan got off work on time. She changed her clothes and left the hospital through the front door.
âJi Yuanyuan?â She heard someone calling her the moment she stepped out of the door.
Ji Yuanyuan turned around and looked around.
In the end, his gaze landed on a father and daughter.
It was Zhang Mingyuan and his daughter, Yaya.
Ji Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment before nodding at him.
Zhang Mingyuan brought Yaya forward. His expression was very warm, âSorry to disturb you today. What a coincidence! How about I treat you to dinner as an apology?â
Ji Yuanyuan did not reply. Instead, she lowered her head and looked at Yaya, âIs the child alright?â
Yayaâs attitude towards Ji Yuanyuan was much better today. She even had a slight smile on her face.
âIâm fine. I just ate something bad and got a fever,â Zhang Mingyuan quickly said.
Ji Yuanyuan nodded, âItâs good that the child is fine. I still have something on. Iâll be leaving first.â
After saying that, she left without giving Zhang Mingyuan a chance to speak. Looking at Ji Yuanyuanâs back view, Zhang Mingyuan opened his mouth, wanting to say something.
After Ji Yuanyuan walked away, Zhang Mingyuan sighed slightly.
âDad, this woman looks better than Yang Jingyi.â Yaya looked up at him.
Zhang Mingyuan reached out and patted Yayaâs head. âDonât talk nonsense.â
Ya y snorted and rolled her eyes.
Ji Yuanyuan got into the car and sighed helplessly.
There was some traffic on the road, so she called Fang Xinyi.
Fang Xinyi was still working overtime, and her voice sounded a little nonchalant.
âYouâre off work?â
âYes. Did that Zhang Mingyuan contact you?â Ji Yuanyuan hesitated for a moment before asking.
âWhatâs wrong?â Fang Xinyi was a little surprised.
She had already picked up her phone and looked at it as she spoke.
âHe contacted me in the afternoon,â Ji Yuanyuan said softly. âHe said that his daughter was sick and asked me to help her register. Then, when I got off work just now, I bumped into him at the entrance of the hospital. He said he wanted to treat me to a meal. I just feel strangeâ¦â
âYou suspect that he wants to seduce you?â Fang Xinyi was straightforward.
Ji Yuanyuan blushed, âThatâs not what I meant. Iâm not that narcissistic. I just
feel that Zhang Mingyuan has no sense of propriety.â
She didnât like Zhang Mingyuan to begin with, and now she disliked him even more.
âI donât like him either. Heâs already so old. Moreover, he still has a child. Jingyi is still so young, I donât know why sheâs so anxious.â Fang Xinyi rubbed the back of her neck and heaved a sigh of relief.
âThen what can we do? We are her friends, not her mother. We have no right to object.â Ji Yuanyuan sighed.
Fang Xinyi suddenly thought of something. She sat up straight and suggested, âYuanyuan, I have a suggestion.â
âWhat suggestion?â Ji Yuanyuan was surprised.
âWhat do you say we introduce Jingyi to a few good guys?â
Ji Yuanyuan was a little speechless, âThis is immoral. She already has a boyfriend. If she likes someone else, it would be cheating.â
âCanât they just break up first and like someone else?â Fang Xinyi said confidently, âJingyi has seen too few men. Thatâs why she thinks Zhang Mingyuan is good. If onlyâ¦â
As she spoke, Fang Xinyi stopped.
How could that be? Yang Jingyi had liked Ji Zixuan when she was young.
She had once liked such a dazzling person and had seen such outstanding men like Qin Mucheng and Ji Ziâang. How could she not know what an outstanding man should be like?
She just felt that she was not worthy.
Fang Xinyi slumped back into her chair, feeling a little discouraged. She didnât speak anymore.
She hung up the phone and looked up at the ceiling of the office in a daze.
She didnât know what Jingyi was thinking. She didnât look happy when she was with Zhang Mingyuan.
Obviously, she didnât like Zhang Mingyuan that much. It was just her wishful thinking that the two of them were compatible. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Why did she have to get married? Canât she not get married?
Why must she marry a man she didnât like and serve him and his child?
What was the point?
She closed her eyes and sighed tiredly.
A moment later, she opened her eyes.
However, she was shocked when she opened her eyes and subconsciously jumped up from her chair.
âAhâ¦â
The moment she jumped up, she bumped into the man above her.
âGeneral Manager, what are you looking at?â She covered her face and gasped.
The tall and handsome man also covered his face, his expression twisted. âI thought you were asleep and wanted to wake you up.â
âSorry, I didnât see you.â Fang Xinyi said awkwardly.
The man rubbed his face and slowly returned to normal. âI want to organize an outdoor activity this weekend. What do you think? Any ideas?â
âAn outdoor activity?â Fang Xinyiâs eyes lit up. âCan I bring a friend?â
Their company was a finance company.
Eighty percent of her colleagues were male, and they were all high-paying male associates.
The manâs lips twitched. âOf course. Every employee can bring a family member. You can bring a friend too.â
When Ji Yuanyuan knew of Fang Xinyiâs plan, she had already brought Tangtang to bed.
From the bottom of her heart, she did not quite agree with Fang Xinyiâs approach.
But on second thought, Yang Jingyiâs personality was sometimes very wild, but she probably wouldnât do anything out of line.
Going out and making a few more friends was not a bad thing.
Therefore, Ji Yuanyuan was not bothered about this matter anymore.
As an intern who was on rotation, she did not have a normal Saturday and weekend.
She had to work on weekends as usual.
Moreover, there were fewer doctors on weekends and more patients. It was still busier than on weekdays.
After a busy day, Ji Yuanyuan had forgotten about Fang Xinyi bringing Yang Jingyi out for outdoor activities.
âMom, Iâm so hungry!â She asked eagerly when she got home. âHow much longer until dinner?â
Cheng Shuqin was reading a book with Tangtang in her arms. She looked up at her through her presbyopic glasses. âWeâll eat now.â
She took off her presbyopic glasses and shouted at the kitchen, âAuntie Wu,
Xiao Qi, serve the dishes now. We wonât wait for them.â
After saying that, she looked at Tangtang. âDonât read anymore. Continue you after dinner. Can you go and call great-grandfather for dinner now?â
Tangtang climbed down from the sofa and considerately passed the slippers to Cheng Shuqin. âGrandma, put on your shoes.â
Cheng Shuqin smiled and looked at Ji Yuanyuan. âSee, sheâs indeed the most considerate girl. Mucheng was never so attentive when he was young.â Ji Yuanyuan laughed along.
Cheng Shuqin got up and brought Tangtang to call Qin Junshan for dinner.
Not long after they sat down at the dining table, Qin Mucheng and Qin Haowen returned.
After Qin Mucheng changed his shoes, he went to the dining table and placed a red wedding invitation on it.
âWhose wedding invitation is it?â Ji Yuanyuan asked curiously..
