So You're Such A Doctor Song

Chapter 387 He Only Wished He Could Grow A Little Taller. After All, Happiness Came Too Suddenly

Li Xiaoxia glared hatefully at Li Shaobin. How infuriating.

Li Shaobin started to scoop some soup delightedly. Li Xiaoxia only had himself to blame for saying he had bad taste. However, after lunch, Li Shaobin stood in front of the mirror, looking at himself left and right but still decided to change that turtleneck sweater. He opened his closet and didn’t know which top to choose.

“Are you going to have dinner with that female cop?” Li Xiaoxia managed to sneak in somehow. “It’s not good to dress too badly. I think this is best.”

He pointed to a red sweater in the closet.

“This?” Li Shaobin pulled it out in disbelief. “A man wearing red?”

“What’s wrong with red? You used to wear all kinds of flowery colors.” Li Xiaoxia tugged at his red sweater inside. “Look, I’m wearing red too. Let me tell you—a brighter color would make your skin look fairer. Trust me. If you wear this, she would definitely escape singlehood.”

Li Shaobin took out the top hesitantly. Li Xiaoxia looked at him slyly and said, “Look, I’ve already helped you choose a top despite our last conflict. Shouldn’t you take me to visit Ruan Yang? Little Uncle, I beg you. I’ve never begged you for anything in my life. Just this one thing. You know that I’ve liked Ruan Yang for a very, very long time.”

“I’m not free now.” Li Shaobin thought for a while. “Maybe during the weekends.”

“Oh yeah! You’re awesome, Little Uncle. Thanks!” Li Xiaoxia exclaimed with joy.

Li Shaobin shook his head speechlessly. His nephew was just a brat who was enchanted by beauty. What was so great about Ruan Yang? She just had slightly bigger breasts and a slightly better-looking face, but she liked someone like Xin Ziao, so her taste was just so-so.

...

At 5:30 pm, Li Shaobin drove an impressive-looking sports car to the police station to pick up Luo Xiru. It was cold today and he was too lazy to get out of the car. He waited in the car and in no time at all, he saw Luo Xiru walking out in a black police winter coat. Her hair was slickly tied up into a ponytail.

Li Shaobin honked the horn and rolled down the window. He peeked his head out and beckoned her. “Hop on.”

Luo Xiru looked at the car plate number of straight “8”s and her colleagues from the police station looked at them strangely. She felt awkward and quickly opened the door to the car and got in. “Didn’t I tell you to wait for me outside the station? Why did you come in?”

“I wanted you to see me immediately.” Li Shaobin grinned, revealing his pearly white teeth.

Luo Xiru blushed. She looked at his sweater and the corners of her mouth twitched. “Why are you wearing a red sweater?”

“Yeah, I look good, don’t I?” Li Shaobin asked happily.

“... Yeah... yeah.” Luo Xiru nodded and turned her face away.

“Let’s get dinner first. After that, I’ll take you to the boxing place,” Li Shaobin said obliviously.

—————-

At night, in her apartment, Ruan Yang was playing games while curled up on her couch when the doorbell suddenly rang.

She ignored it. The caretaker went over to the receiver. When she heard the voice of the person downstairs, she turned back and said, “Miss Ruan, Miss Jiang has come to visit you.”

Miss Jiang...

Ruan Yang was stunned for a few seconds before recalling that she had a friend called Jiang Duoyao.

In less than four minutes, Jiang Duoyao came in with food in her hands. Jiang Duoyao looked for her slippers naturally. “My beloved little Yangyang, I’m here to visit you.”

Ruan Yang shuddered and frowned. She really wasn’t used to these strangers referring to her so intimately.

“We used to call you that in school.” Duoyao put the fruit down and said, “I wanted to come over earlier but I was afraid that people would recognize me and I was also busy with commercials and shows. Guan Ying too. She’s working with her production team right now. Otherwise, she would’ve come over too. Come, come, come. I bought your favorite fruit.”

Ruan Yang felt a surge of warmth. She put her tablet down and stood up. They were indeed her favorites. Grapefruits, red dragon fruits, and blood oranges. She loved fruit with red flesh. This person did seem to be her very close friend. “Was I very close with you guys the moment I entered school?”

“Nope. We kept arguing at the start,” Duoyao said. “At the beginning, Changqing and I didn’t really like you.”

“Why?”

Duoyao said with a grin, “Because your results were too good and you didn’t seem to need to put in any effort to get good grades.”

Ruan Yang: “...”

So it was just plain jealousy?

Duoyao started to peel the grapefruit. “Changqing’s child will be a month old in a few days’ time. You have to go to the celebration.”

Ruan Yang’s head hurt. Why must she go to the celebration even though she lost her memory?

Seeing that she didn’t say anything, Duoyao turned around and said seriously, “No matter whether you remember us or not, I won’t allow you to give up on our friendship. It’s okay if you don’t remember us. We can get to know each other again. Since we became friends in the past, we can still become friends now.”

Ruan Yang was startled. It was impossible to say that she wasn’t touched.

“I think we can become good friends again,” Ruan Yang said after a while. This inexplicable familiarity, the inexplicable stirring of emotions, and the inexplicable liking for them were a recipe for a great friendship. “Right, don’t you have to go back to keep your boyfriend company?”

“I don’t have to keep him company every day.” Duoyao’s face reddened. “I told him I’d stay over at your place tonight.”

“Alright.” Ruan Yang nodded. It would be nice to have someone to talk to.

...

On Saturday, Changqing’s child was a month old. Changqing called Ruan Yang personally so she couldn’t refuse Changqing.

At around 10 am in the morning, when she was still reading in bed, Li Shaobin called. “Come downstairs. I got Hu Zhi to pick you up.”

“Alright.” Ruan Yang didn’t want to trouble him but she didn’t know how to get to the hotel, so she didn’t reject his help.

After she changed and went downstairs, Hu Zhi opened the door to usher her into the backseat. A boy in his teens was sitting inside. When he saw her, he pounced over excitedly. “Sister Ruan Yang, I missed you so much.”

Ruan Yang was stunned. She looked at Hu Zhi. “This is... your son?”

“How could my son be so old?” Hu Zhi’s face fell. How old did he look? “He’s my boss’s nephew.”

“Sister Ruan Yang, we’ve known each other for more than a year already.” Li Xiaoxia lay in her embrace, refusing to get out. “Although we haven’t known each other for long, you’re really nice to me and you even had supper with me often. You also invited me to your movie premiers and what not. In any case, I’m your very, very, very good friend.”

Ruan Yang was stunned. So now, she had another boy in his teens as her friend?

Hu Zhi, who was sitting at the side, rolled his eyes speechlessly. He finally understood why Li Xiaoxia told him to not interrupt on the way no matter what he told Ruan Yang. So this was what he was thinking. When did Ruan Yang treat li Xiaoxia to supper? She didn’t even know him that well. It had always been one-sided.

“Sister Ruan Yang, you can’t stop being my good friend after losing your memory.” Li Xiaoxia pouted and looked at Ruan Yang pitifully.

His features were cute to begin with and seeing him like that, Ruan Yang’s heart melted. She coaxed him, “Sure, I won’t.”

“That’s great.” Li Xiaoxia smiled radiantly. “I’ll accompany you to Sister Changqing’s baby’s full month party.”

“Sure.” Ruan Yang was suddenly puzzled. “Where’s Li Shaobin? He should be going too.”

“He is but he’s bringing his girlfriend along,” Li Xiaoxia said. “I wasn’t very interested in his girlfriend so I volunteered to go with you. I was afraid you would feel awkward since you lost your memory.”

Ruan Yang stroked his little head. What a thoughtful child. “He’s already dating that female cop?”

“I don’t know, that’s what he said. Besides, they’ve been going on dates every day for the past few days,” Li Xiaoxia said. “I think my Little Uncle is bringing the female cop over to recover his face.”

“To recover his face?” Ruan Yang was bewildered.

“Yeah, I’ve never seen my Little Uncle in a relationship before.” Li Xiaoxia looked at Hu Zhi and lowered his voice subconsciously, saying, “My family members and a lot of his friends thought my Little Uncle liked men.”

Ruan Yang stared wide-eyed. She really didn’t think things were that bad for Li Shaobin. He was even mistaken for being gay. It looked like he really never had a woman before. However, it was rare to find men like him.

“Little Uncle was angry because of that. Besides, everyone thought he wouldn’t be able to get a girlfriend. Now that he’s finally going out with a girl, he definitely has to bring her over to boast,” Li Xiaoxia said.

Ruan Yang thought she’d better leave Li Shaobin some space later on, in case she got in the way of their date.

...

They arrived at the hotel ballroom which had very tight security.

Li Xiaoxia handed in his invitation and walked in with his chest up high while holding Ruan Yang. He only wished he could grow a little taller. After all, happiness came too suddenly. He never thought that one day, he would be able to walk down this red carpet holding Ruan Yang’s hand like this, although this red carpet was what the hotel used to welcome its guests.

“Ruan Yang.” A woman standing by the door, dressed in a branded white fur coat, suddenly saw Ruan Yang and her amorous eyes moistened. She pouted her delicate lips and almost broke into tears.

Beside her stood a refined man. The man was carrying a baby who had just turned a month old. Ruan Yang could immediately guess who she was.
