Zeng Xiaoya refused. “I have a day off in a few days. I promised to accompany Granny Zhan.”
“Every time Uncle and Auntie come to the city, is it not Miss He who takes care of them and keeps them company? Senior Lin, Miss He truly treats you and your family with all her heart. You and she have shared a bed. I hope you will not let her down.”
“Senior Lin, do not say you do not like Miss He. You have never rejected her. You let her feel there is still a chance. That shows Senior Lin does not have absolutely no feelings for her.”
When Doctor Lin said he loved her, Zeng Xiaoya did not doubt it.
But if he said he did not like He Yuehua at all, Zeng Xiaoya did not believe it.
He Yuehua had given so much. Doctor Lin should not let her down.
“Xiaoya, why do you keep pushing me towards Yuehua? Towards her… she and I are not what you think. That night I was also drunk. Nothing happened. She and I are still pure and innocent.”
“Senior Lin, because I do not love you, but Miss He loves you, pushing you to her is where your happiness lies.”
“Senior Lin, I need to start work. Let us end the chat.”
With that, Zeng Xiaoya hung up the phone.
After hanging up, she sighed. In future, she should answer fewer calls from Senior Lin.
No matter what she said, he refused to give up.
Did she really have to pretend to be a couple with Zhan Yue to make Senior Lin lose hope?
“Second Uncle, I am off to work.”
Zeng Xiaoya quickly adjusted her mood. As she walked out, she said to her second uncle.
“Yes. Will you come back for dinner tonight?”
“I will come back for dinner. Ask Auntie to cook my meal.”
Her second uncle responded with an “oh”.
Zhan Yue, who had already been sitting inside for a while, stood up as well. “Second Uncle, I will drive Xiaoya to work first.”
Her second uncle said, “Go ahead. Drive carefully on the road. Do not go too fast.”
Zhan Yue smiled. “In the city, how can one drive fast? Rest assured. I am an experienced driver.”
He and Zeng Xiaoya left the clinic together.
He unlocked the car, first opened the door for Zeng Xiaoya, waited for her to get in, then walked around the car to the driver’s seat.
Soon, he drove away from the Zeng family clinic.
Her second uncle stood inside watching the car leave.
“Xiaoya, are you unhappy?”
Zhan Yue asked while driving.
Zeng Xiaoya was taken aback for a moment, then said, “No. I am not unhappy.”
Zhan Yue said, “I thought you looked a bit unhappy. Good that you are not.”
“Can you really tell I am unhappy?”
Zeng Xiaoya thought she had hidden her emotions well. Even her second uncle had not noticed she was unhappy.
Yet Zhan Yue had spotted it. His heart was truly attentive.
“Yes, I can tell. After you came downstairs, that smile of yours was forced. It was too strained.”
He had also heard her voice when she was speaking to someone as she came down.
His hearing was very good.
