Chapter 2455: Quite Sweet

After An Rui woke up, she went to the washroom to wash her face and touch up her makeup.

Zhou Li had already seen the last patient of the day. Just as An Rui was about to walk out, a tall and beautiful woman walked in. She was also wearing a white coat.

She leaned against Zhou Li’s desk, her charming eyes staring fixedly at Zhou Li. “It’s my birthday today and I booked a private room at the villa. You have to go no matter what.”

Zhou Li’s expression was calm and elegant. “I might be late.”

Chen Qing approached Zhou Li and raised her chin slightly. “Did you prepare a gift for me?”

Zhou Li hummed faintly and put some distance between them.

Seeing that he was always avoiding her, Chen Qing frowned and looked at him angrily. “What a blockhead!”

She stomped her feet and went out in her high heels.

After Chen Qing left, An Rui came out of the lounge.

Zhou Li was taking off his white coat. When he saw An Rui, he smiled faintly. “You’re awake?”

An Rui crossed her arms and looked at Zhou Li’s tall figure. She asked with a smile, “I just saw that beautiful doctor. Dr Zhou is really lucky!”

Zhou Li hurriedly explained, “We’re exchange students who went to Y Country together. We’re just classmates and colleagues.”

An Rui noticed that Zhou Li’s ears were slightly red and thought that he was shy. She waved her hand. “You don’t have to explain to me. You’re not a child anymore. It’s normal for women to like you!”

Zhou Li stared at An Rui for a few seconds and said nothing more. He tidied up and walked to her side. “I’ll take you back first.”

An Rui did not know if she was hallucinating, but he seemed to be a little angry.

At the entrance of the Royal Hospital, several doctors and nurses were standing there. When they saw Zhou Li coming over, one of the male doctors said, “Dr Zhou, girlfriend?”

“No, we were high school classmates.”

An Rui furrowed her eyebrows when she saw Zhou Li answering so quickly as if he was afraid of being misunderstood.

He found her embarrassing?

“We were high school classmates. At that time, our relationship was the best and most innocent. Since we’re here, let’s bring her along!”

Zhou Li was about to say that there was no need when he heard An Rui reply with a smile, “Okay.”

After Zhou Li and An Rui got into the car, Zhou Li turned to look at her. “You don’t have to force yourself if you don’t want to go.”

“I won’t force you, unless you don’t want me to go.”

Zhou Li was speechless.

At this moment, a woman in a short skirt and exquisite makeup rushed over and opened the front passenger seat door. “Zhou Li, the tires of my car are flat. I’ll take your car and go over…”

Before she could finish, she swallowed her words when she saw An Rui sitting in the front passenger seat.

Chen Qing’s expression changed. “Zhou Li, she’s…”

“I’m his high school classmate. My name is An Rui.” An Rui smiled at the woman.

Chen Qing hummed, opened the back door, and got in.

On the way to the villa, Chen Qing kept talking to Zhou Li. One moment, he was talking about them being exchange students, and the next, he was talking about the hospital. They were all topics that An Rui could not interrupt.

However, Zhou Li did not seem to be very cooperative. He only replied calmly after saying ten sentences.

Either it was an ‘oh’, or it was a ‘yes’. The most was silence.

An Rui looked out of the window, her hands cupping her cheeks as she could not help but smile.

Chen Qing was furious with Zhou Li. After glaring at Zhou Li, she asked An Rui, “Miss An, was Doctor Zhou so insensitive and wooden when he was in high school?”

An Rui glanced at Zhou Li’s handsome and refined face and smiled. “More or less.”

“No wonder!” Chen Qing felt better. “Any girl who gets together with him will probably die from anger one day.”

An Rui said, “That can’t be. Although he’s a little quiet, he’s still quite considerate.”

“Gentle? Considerate?” Chen Qing seemed to have heard something shocking and her beautiful face was full of anger. “I was an exchange student with him in Y Country for four years and I’ve never seen him be gentle and considerate to anyone…”

Halfway through, Zhou Li interrupted them. “Please let me go and talk about something else.”

Hearing Zhou Li’s words, Chen Qing glanced at him thoughtfully.

When he was studying in Y Country, many girls liked Zhou Li’s style. When they confessed to him in front of him or if they were more open, they would run to his rented house and throw themselves at him, but he would chase them away without batting an eyelid.

But now, the tips of his ears were suspiciously red.

Chen Qing glanced at An Rui, who was smiling but did not notice anything, and his hands clenched into fists.

She still thought that Zhou Li was an unromantic blockhead!

So…

After arriving at the villa, An Rui realized that something was wrong with Chen Qing.

She knocked Zhou Li’s arm lightly. “You made her unhappy.”

Zhou Li pursed his lips. “Don’t worry about it.”

An Rui realized that this person was quite cold sometimes.

“Chen Qing is so beautiful and has such a good figure. Don’t you have any thoughts?”

Zhou Li hummed.

The other colleagues from the hospital arrived one after another and everyone entered the room.

An Rui sat in the room for a while before walking out.

The villa was a real farmhouse. The chickens, ducks, geese, and vegetables were all raised by their own families.

They could fish, pick fruits, and ride bicycles here.

An Rui’s leg had recovered a little. She walked to the yard and could not help swallowing when she saw a hazel tree not far away.

Walking under the loquat tree, she looked at the ripe fruits on it and picked up a stick to poke it a few times.

None of them fell.

She was a little depressed.

At this moment, a male voice trailed over. “Beauty, do you want to eat wontons?”

An Rui turned back and saw a handsome man. It was the doctor who had invited her to the hospital earlier.

An Rui smiled and said, “I want to eat it but can’t.”

“I’ll help you.”

The man jumped and plucked a bunch of wontons.

“You’re quite capable.”

The man handed the bowl to An Rui. “I’m Shen Ting. What about you?”

“I’m An Rui.”

“An Rui, your name sounds a little familiar.”

An Rui peeled a pimple and threw it into her mouth. “There have been a lot of scandals online recently.”

Shen Ting laughed at An Rui’s cheerfulness and generosity. “So it’s you. Hahaha, you look better in person than in the photo and have a good personality. I’ve long felt that those scandals are fake!”

“Thank you for the compliment.” An Rui focused on eating the wontons.

Zhou Li came out of the room and walked toward the couple who were talking and laughing not far away.

Seeing Zhou Li coming over, An Rui handed him a wonton. “It’s quite sweet. Do you want to eat it?”

Zhou Li shook his head. “Time to eat.”

“Okay.”

An Rui was about to walk away when Zhou Li held her arm. “Your leg is still swollen. Don’t walk around.”

“Alright, I’ll listen to Dr Zhou.”

Shen Ting walked on the other side of An Rui and chatted with her. Somehow, they talked about relationships and he asked An Rui, “Miss An, do you have a boyfriend?”
