Chapter 41: That Is a Treasure

Lost for words, she pursed her lips, unsure of what to say next.
So did he become a doctor because of his brother?
She did not know about his past or about his family background.
And he never talked to her about his family, either.
To everyone else, this man was aloof and detached. Although he was a doctor, he had a regal presence, and his looks were an asset that was exclusively his.
So much so that she’d almost forgotten that with all that he had — his good looks, excellent physique, and top surgical skills — he was just another normal human being who could feel sad and depressed. No one was a god here.
What heartache!
Yan Nian stretched out her arm and patted his broad and wide back lightly.
“Let me give you a comforting hug. You have the biggest honor today. Don’t be sad!”
Jiang Beiyuan: “…”
Was she giving him a hug only because he’d earned the honor?
With his two hands pressed on her moist and fair shoulders, he pulled himself slightly away from her, dipped his head, and said, “As long as you don’t give me any trouble, I won’t feel down.”
He was a tall man. Standing at 188 centimeters, he would normally tilt his eyes sideways to stare down at the other party.
It was only when he was with her that he would lower his head and bring himself down to look at her.
Right now, he could see the woman’s pretty face. Seemingly wanting to please him, she uttered, “I understand. I won’t ever go to a bar again. Never ever!”
As she said that, she shook her head as if trying to make turbulent waves.
He lifted his hand and gave a quick snap at her pretty head with his slender index finger. Stabling her shaky head, he told her in a voice that was enchantingly gentle…
“Silly fool, stop shaking your head.”
She was dumbstruck on the spot.
If someone were to ask her when she started to like the man, the answer was probably at this very moment.
Or, perhaps, it was earlier.
But, at this moment…
Together with his sexy, magnetic voice, his fingers seemed to hold a mystical power that shot a magical feeling right through her heart.
Like a wandering traveler who suddenly found an oasis after being lost in the sparse desert for a long, long time, she saw her treasure, finally.
He was the oasis; he was the treasure.
…
Ding Baoyi finally woke up.
Sitting beside the bed, Yan Nian peeled an apple and then passed it to her friend begrudgingly.
“I’m not going to save you again if you’re gonna get into another traffic accident after drinking!”
Now, rewinding the clock to an hour earlier…
This was the next day’s morning. Ding Baoyi was still unconscious.
She went to check with her chief physician about her condition. According to him, she should regain consciousness if nothing was to go wrong.
If nothing goes wrong?
Is there any hidden meaning to his words?
A few ideas crossed her head.
Would her friend become a vegetable? That was to say, other than her heart and lungs continuing to function, her friend could do nothing else?
Or, perhaps, she might lose her memory after she woke up and clamor to know who and where she was like an imbecile?
Oh, god…
She could not accept either possibility.
Sitting at the edge of the bed, she held her friend’s hand and buried her head in it.
“Ding Baoyi, Ding Baoyi, you must wake up…”
“You said you would be my bridesmaid at my wedding. I haven’t had my wedding yet so you mustn’t die on me…
“If I’m gonna have a son later, you’d be his godmother. How am I going to survive if you’re no longer around… Wuu wuu…”
Cough, cough…
Upon hearing the coughing sound, she looked up abruptly to stare right into her bestie’s awkward-looking eyes.
“Hey, that’s enough. We’re both not suited for mushiness.”
She stayed startled for another second.
And the next second…
“Thank goodness! You are conscious finally! Ahhhh!”
She held her buddy’s throat tightly and shook her so vigorously that Ding Baoyi was almost in danger of being suffocated by her.
What could anyone do, this pair of jokers had such a special way of expressing their emotions.
