“Hold your horses!” The nurse wiped her sweat. “Your son’s surgery was a success. It’s over now. He’s about to be rolled out. Be ready.”

It was a false alarm. The couple was still in disbelief as they stared at each other. “So soon? Only one-third of the surgery time has passed. Are you sure there’s nothing wrong?”

The nurse patted her chest as a guarantee. “How can there be a problem? You’re lucky. Two famous doctors in the industry operated on your son!”

Uncle and Aunt fell to their knees and kowtowed three times to the door of the operating theater.

Luo Mengmeng hurried to the corridor, wanting to tell Yangyang the good news and thank her properly, but no one answered the call.

She looked suspicious. ‘Is Yangyang busy now?’

At this moment, Sheng Yang and Yi Juncheng had taken off their masks and were washing their hands by the sink.

Sheng Yang suddenly shrugged and glanced at Yi Juncheng. “You’re not bad.”

She hadn’t known that before.

Yi Juncheng raised his eyebrows and coughed lightly.

This must not have been taught to her by others. He didn’t think that her words would have such a big effect on him.

“What’s wrong?” Sheng Yang could tell he looked strange.

Yi Juncheng suddenly turned around and put his hands on the counter. “Do you mean what you said before?”

“Which sentence?”

Yi Juncheng smiled, but he didn’t really mind. “You forgot already?”

Sheng Yang mimicked his smile, which tickled her heart. “No, I was teasing you. Of course, I remember. I’ll give you everything I have.”

“Yes.” The first time he heard it, he was shocked. The second time, his mixed feelings only increased.

He had never felt safe before, but now, with Yangyang’s words and actions, his empty heart began to fill up bit by bit.

“Go back and get ready,” Sheng Yang said and walked to the changing room.

Yi Juncheng raised his eyebrows, then looked at her back and smiled.

The little girl had learned bad things. It seemed that she had been studying a lot recently and knew that he still needed to prepare.

At nine o’clock, it was the time that Sheng Yang and Yi Juncheng had agreed on. A room was decorated, there was red wine, and the place smelled good. Yi Juncheng had just come out of a shower, and his black hair was still wet. He glanced at the white bathrobe. It was open at the chest, making him look very charming.

He debated whether to wear this or change. He didn’t know which one Yangyang preferred.

He looked around the room where he kept his clothes, but he didn’t really find anything suitable. ‘Oh well, this will do.’

Yi Juncheng fiddled with his hair. His peach blossom eyes were intoxicating.

He didn’t bother with slippers when he heard the doorbell. He stepped out and opened the door.

Sheng Yang was still dressed casually in a T-shirt, denim shorts, and a ponytail. This sort of student look was refreshing, but on her, it was especially stunning.

Yi Juncheng was stunned. Unexpectedly, he was still extremely tempted.

Seeing Sheng Yang sizing him up, he smiled.

Sheng Yang frowned, confused. “Why are you dressed like that?”

Yi Juncheng: “?”

Seeing that Sheng Yang was carrying a backpack, Yi Juncheng felt that something was wrong.

After a while, a hearty voice came from behind Sheng Yang. “Miss Sheng, I’m here.”

Sheng Yang walked in at the spot Yi Juncheng had made way for her and waved at the man behind her. “Come in with me.”
