Chapter 144: It’s Not Bought For Me

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Two more days.” Song Chuyi had no choice. “There’s no way out; it’s like this as a doctor.”

Changqing was unhappy but she couldn’t do anything about it. “I’m hungry. I want to eat breakfast.”

“… Alright.” Song Chuyi stood up and picked out a piece of men’s clothing she brought back from Singapore.

He had a good figure, nice skin and even better looks. The shirt looked perfect on him.

Changqing felt extremely satisfied upon seeing that.

Other than for Yan Lei, it was the first time she bought clothes for a man.

“How did you know my size?” Song Chuyi suddenly asked.

“…” Changqing turned her face around guiltily. “I knew it once I touched it.”

“Really?” Song Chuyi walked to the side of the bed, bent down and looked at her with teasing eyes. “How incredible. Why don’t you touch me somewhere else and take a look at the size? Hm?”

There was evilness hidden in his eyes and when Changqing realized what he meant, she covered her eyes and scolded him. “Gangster.”

“Then you should tell the truth.” Song Chuyi suddenly grabbed her wrist.

Changqing was afraid he would really make her feel his size and quickly surrendered, saying honestly, “I took a look at your size before I went out. I wanted to give you a surprise.”

“Good. It was a surprise.” Song Chuyi kissed her cheek. “On account of this surprise, I shall close an eye about you spending all the money I gave you.”

“How did you know I spent all the money?” Changqing was a little embarrassed.

“You bought so many things; how could you have not spent all the money?” Song Chuyi looked at her with despise.

Changqing chuckled with embarrassment. “I was thinking that since you only gave me Singapore Dollars if I didn’t spend it all and had some left over, there wouldn’t be a place to spend it at home, so I just spent it all.”

Song Chuyi shook his head and sighed. “Your Dad was right. You’re a spendthrift—spending as much as you can.”

Changqing felt guilty. She was only married for such a short time, so revealing her strong money-spending abilities didn’t seem to be a good idea.

She thought hard for a few seconds and said, “Look, my Dad is single and he earned so much money. I had to help him spend it. If I don’t work hard to spend all the money, what would we do with all the money in the future? Saving it in the bank would only be advantageous for those taking loans. With the same reasoning, you only know how to earn money and save patients usually. Your family members are all ultra-rich and your money is also always put into the bank. Now that the economy isn’t doing well, so many people are getting loans to pass their days. The bank is actually quite risky too. I only tried so hard to spend your money while thinking about this.”

“Really? I can’t tell that you had such foresight.” Song Chuyi wore an apparent smile. “In that case, shouldn’t I be grateful to you?”

Changqing forced a smile and shrank further into the covers. “That won’t be necessary; just make breakfast for me.”

Song Chuyi facepalmed. If he didn’t need to go to work on time, he would’ve really wanted to teach her a good lesson.

It was his first time seeing a spendthrift being so self-justified.

He couldn’t be bothered with her and turned to leave the room.

After washing up, he made noodles for Changqing and after frying an egg sunny side up, he woke her up. “Breakfast is ready. Hurry up and eat it or else the noodles will get soggy.”

“It’s noodles?” Changqing pouted. She didn’t really feel like having noodles. “When is Auntie Wang coming back?”

“I’ll pass you her number afterwards. Ask her over anytime you want to eat something. I have to go to work, so hurry up.” Song Chuyi left hurriedly for work after instructing her.

Changqing didn’t listen to him and lazed around in bed for a while before getting up to have breakfast. Therefore, the noodles did become a little soggy but the texture wasn’t bad. The sunny side up egg on the noodles was partially cooked and it was quite delicious too.

Changqing ate half of it and continued to sleep afterwards.

After waking up from her slumber, she received Auntie Wang’s contact from Song Chuchu.

However, Changqing didn’t call Auntie Wang over. Instead, she carried the presents she bought from Singapore and brought Robben along to the Yan Household.

She also bought a shirt for Auntie Zhang and Auntie Zhang was all smiles, praising her non-stop and saying that her own daughter wasn’t as filial.

In the afternoon, Auntie Zhang made a few dishes for her. Yan Lei came back too and Changqing passed his presents to him.

Yan Lei was elated and gave her a stack of tips. Changqing accepted it with delight.

In the evening, Changqing gave Song Chuyi a call to tell him that she and Robben were at the Yan Household and that they wouldn’t be returning to Lakeview Residence that night.

“I’m not coming over for dinner tonight; I have a medical case to discuss with the department head tonight,” Song Chuyi said.

Changqing was unhappy. “Why do you have so many cases to discuss? Your department head has already become the department head; what’s there to discuss with you? If his skills aren’t up to par then he shouldn’t be the department head.”

Song Chuyi laughed softly. “Our department head’s skills are indeed not better than mine.”

“You’re just an egoistic person. I can’t be bothered with you.” Changqing hung up the phone.

It wasn’t convenient for her to go out right now. She was afraid she would be caught by the paparazzi and therefore, she stayed at home and played on the computer until after nine at night. Song Chuyi still wasn’t back and she called again. His phone was actually switched off.

She waited for a while, yet he still wasn’t back at eleven. She read in bed for a while and fell asleep groggily.

The next day, she woke up early and Song Chuyi was laying beside her, sleeping soundly.

Changqing held back the urge to push him awake and went downstairs softly, asking the security guard outside, “What time did Mr. Song come back yesterday?”

“That would be around two in the morning,” said the guard.

Changqing was frustrated. It was rare for her to get a holiday, but instead of accompanying her at home, he even came back so late at night. It was too much.

She was eating alone in the dining room gloomily when footsteps came from upstairs. Song Chuyi came down with an exhausted face. He looked languid but that made him look even more charismatic.

Changqing snorted. “You discussed the case with your department head all the way till two yesterday?”

“No, we discussed until ten and I wanted to leave, but in the end, there was a pregnant woman from the Gynecology department who was having a difficult labor. The doctors on duty last night had their hands full so I went over to help.” Song Chuyi said with exhaustion, “In the end, the pregnant woman was bleeding non-stop and almost went into shock.”

Changqing was in a daze. “Then was she revived?”

“Mm.” Song Chuyi nodded while picking up a cup of milk.

Changqing heaved a sigh of relief, but after a while, she felt something was off. “Don’t tell me you were the one who helped that pregnant lady deliver.”

“Is there a problem?” Song Chuyi asked calmly.

Changqing found it hard to continue with her breakfast. Although giving birth was a good thing, when the person helping to deliver was your husband… “Have you… been going over to the Gynecology department often lately?”

“… no.” Song Chuyi was spreading peanut butter on a piece of toast while looking at his little wife sitting across him who had a strange expression and said lightly, “Just speak your mind.”

Changqing drank a sip of soya bean milk to lubricate her throat and stuttered, “I think… it’s better if you went to the Gynecology department less. Although you’re saving people… it’s still weird. Those kinds of things… you’ll become abnormal after seeing it too much…”

“I got it.” Song Chuyi nodded and looked at her intensely. “You only want me to examine you and not look at other women.”

“It’s not that…” Changqing quickly denied it with her face flushed red. After saying that, she found it strange. It seemed that she did mean that… “I’m thinking about your bodily health…”

“I’m very healthy.” Song Chuyi said lightly, “Tonight, you’ll find out how healthy I am.”

Changqing was embarrassed and went wild. “In any case, just go there less if you can. Don’t you treat the brain? Why do you keep going over to the Gynecology department and not treating the brain properly?”

“How would I have known you if I didn’t go over to the Gynecology department?” Song Chuyi lifted his eyelids and smiled.

Changqing’s movements stiffened. Her face rose in temperature as though there was a fire burning.

“Yeah, not only did you meet me, but you also know many other women.” Changqing stared daggers at him and lowered her head to eat her breakfast silently.

Song Chuyi put his fork and knife down and stroked his chin, saying thoughtfully, “I really didn’t go there many times. I only go during extraordinary times too. Actually, you don’t have to worry about it too much. Child delivery takes quite some time and different kinds of situations crop up. It’s also a very physically demanding job. Sometimes, the female doctors can’t take it and therefore, many male doctors enter the labor room too. You’ll understand when you give birth yourself. Actually… it’s quite disgusting.”

“Alright, stop it.” Changqing’s face was flushed red and the more he went on, the angrier she felt. “What do you mean by quite disgusting? Don’t tell me you’re going to call it disgusting when I give birth in the future?”

Song Chuyi cleared his throat. “I’ll help you deliver in the future.”

“I don’t want that. I want a female doctor.” Changqing threw the fork. “I’m not eating anymore. You made me lose my appetite.”

“Up to you.” Song Chuyi picked up his fork and knife and continued eating. He was quite hungry and finished off a bowl of dumplings after having three sandwiches. After that, he left for work.

In the afternoon, when Wen Tong came over, Changqing was lazing alone while watching the television.

“Song Chuyi didn’t keep you company?” Wen Tong asked, seeing her gloomy face.

“He only knows how to work, work, work.” Changqing pouted.

“Doctors all seem to be very busy,” Wen Tong said with a smile. “I just made a trip to Shang Wei. The production team is also holding a press conference to make an official apology for your incident this time. Your role won’t be changed and the production team will wait for your face to fully recover before filming starts again. The hateful part is Zhao Zhu, that little bitch, kept crying during the press conference and saying how she didn’t take her assistant in hand.”

“That means we didn’t manage to take Zhao Zhu down?” Although she expected it, Changqing still felt a little disappointed.

“I never would’ve thought that Zhao Zhu would push all the blame to her assistant and the assistant would actually take it all. Perhaps she was given a lot of benefits.” Wen Tong sighed. “However, the netizens all don’t believe her and Zhao Zhu’s reputation stinks now. My guess is that Shang Wei wants to change the female lead, but since swapping out Guan Ying already caused them to suffer a hefty sum, changing the lead again…”

“Does that mean I still have to film with Zhao Zhu?” Changqing felt her head hurting.

“Forget it; I’d just make do with it. It’s just one more month anyway. However, Director Su told me that he intends to add more scenes for you. This television drama will have two female leads.” Wen Tong said merrily, “The scriptwriter has been notified to change the script already and that means you’re also the female lead right now. I heard that because Zhao Zhu’s image isn’t very good right now, in order to increase the show’s ratings when it airs, your character will be made more likeable.”
