After Kang Daqiao left, only two people were left staring at each other.
In the end, Kang Xiaoqiao was defeated. She took a sip of water and said, "That, yes, thank you."
Lu Yichen smiled and said, "I'm thirsty."
Kang Xiaoqiao wanted to glare at him when she saw this, but he did help her. Otherwise, if she were to do it herself, there would be trouble.
It was fine to pour him a glass of water, so she reached out her delicate hand to pick up the water bottle. However, no matter how Lu Yichen looked at Kang Xiaoqiao, she was so pleasing to the eye.
Even though she was angry, her little face was still so cute with a blush. Lu Yichen's heart seemed to melt.
He also became gentler and said, "Don't be angry, okay?"
Kang Xiaoqiao glanced at him when she heard that and put down the glass of water. "What does it matter if I'm angry or not?"
"Of course it matters."
Lu Yichen used his hand to rub the wall of the glass of water. He looked at Kang Xiaoqiao's rising little mouth and really wanted to give her a big kiss. However, now that she was angry, he could only give up on this thought.
Although Kang Xiaoqiao looked very cute when she was angry, Lu Yichen still wanted to see her smile. At that time, she was as beautiful as the sunset and as happy as a fairy. He did not like her to be angry or unhappy.
Kang Xiaoqiao saw Lu Yichen's serious look and calmed herself down. She said with a cold face, "Then why are you still angry at me?"
Uh--
Lu Yichen frowned when he heard that. After a minute, he said seriously, "Xiaoqiao, actually, I don't know why you're angry."
"If it's just because I didn't go along with your words and bully Zhao Yingying, I didn't think you would be so angry."
Even though Lu Yichen's EQ was low, he knew that he couldn't mention Xia Zijun's matter. This brat had already run away. If he caught him, he would definitely skin him alive.
He actually played dirty with him--
Kang Xiaoqiao looked at him. To be honest, she had thought a lot more over the past few days. Lu Yichen wasn't her, so he couldn't feel the same way as her. This man and woman's brains were different.
In one case, Kang Daqiao was her sister, not Lu Yichen's sister. She had no reason to ask her to feel the same way.
It was just like how a daughter-in-law would ask her mother-in-law to treat her like her own mother and treat her like her own daughter. It was impossible.
In the mother-in-law's heart, the son was always the first, and the daughter-in-law was still an outsider.
If it were not for her, Lu Yichen would not even know who Kang Daqiao was. How was she different from a stranger?
Even if he knew, it was still true that he was unhappy.
However, she wasn't going to tell Lu Yichen these things. Even if she did, he might not understand. The human heart was really complicated and changeable.
Therefore, Kang Xiaoqiao wanted him to realize this himself. Only when he realized it himself could he reflect on himself from the bottom of his heart. What he said became a request, and what he realized on his own was what he was willing to do.
At this moment, a pleasant female voice suddenly sounded.
"Yichen, so you're at home--"
The two people who were still in the middle of fighting looked towards the door when they saw the situation. Then, Kang Xiaoqiao narrowed her eyes and the corners of her mouth curled up.
She turned to look at Lu Yichen and opened her mouth to say, "You're wrong. I'm just angry because you refused to tell the truth. This has nothing to do with whether you're bullying me or not."
Lu Yichen was stunned when he heard this, and Kang Xiaoqiao smiled and said, "I'm giving you one last chance."
"Ahem, do you think that Zhao is good-looking, or am I better-looking?"
Zhao Yingying, who had just walked into the yard, heard it immediately. Kang Xiaoqiao's voice was not soft either. Zhao Yingying clenched her fists tightly and did not wait for Lu Yichen's reply. She smiled and said, "Sister Kang is naturally better looking than me. There's no other beauty as good-looking as Sister Kang within a hundred miles."
Zhao Yingying could not help but praise her for her actions. It was much less embarrassing to be slandered than others.
When Kang Xiaoqiao heard it, she turned to look at her and said disdainfully, "Doctor Zhao, you must be joking. I don't have an 'ingenious' sister like you."
"My biological elder sister was almost forced to death a few days ago. There's still a lot of Doctor Zhao's credit here."
When Zhao Yingying heard that, her eyes shrunk and she said, "There's such a thing? I actually don't know about it. Credit? That's even less of a credit. However, saving her husband's life is my duty. Sister Kang, please don't take it to heart."
Zhao Yingying easily resolved Kang Xiaoqiao's aggressiveness. This Zhao Yingying was really not an easy person to deal with.
Kang Xiaoqiao was not angry. Then, she leaned forward and said without blinking, "Yichen, you haven't answered my question."
Lu Yichen saw Kang Xiaoqiao looking at him with a sly look and frowned. "My Xiaoqiao is naturally the most beautiful girl. In my heart, no one can compare to her."
Kang Xiaoqiao originally wanted to see Lu Yichen's face, but after hearing this, her face turned red. This d*mn Lu Yichen, he was so formal in his words of love. She really admired him.
After Lu Yichen said this, he looked up at Zhao Yingying and said with a cold face, "Why did Doctor Zhao suddenly come to my house? We are going back to the provincial capital soon. We should organize our things properly."
What he said was the same as saying, "Why did you come here if you're not at home to pack your things properly?"
Obviously, everyone present understood what he meant. Zhao Yingying choked when she heard what he said. Lu Yichen's words from before had pricked a thorn in her heart. Now that she was being questioned like this, her face turned even paler.
However, everyone had underestimated the thickness of Zhao Yingying's skin. All they saw was her pale face. She forced a smile and said, "Well, I don't have much to pack. I'm leaving soon. I came to check on your injuries so that I can rest assured."
After saying that, she was about to remove Lu Yichen's bandage, but Lu Yichen gave her a cold look and said, "No need. Everything is fine. Doctor Zhao, please go back."
"Xiaoqiao, send Doctor Zhao out."
After saying that, he stood up and went back to the house, leaving Zhao Yingying standing there in a daze. Kang Xiaoqiao was in a good mood today. Lu Yichen had performed well. The points he had lost earlier could be added back.
Looking at Zhao Yingying's injured face, Kang Xiaoqiao did not mind beating her up.
Holding her face with her hand, she said with a smile, "Please, Doctor Zhao."
This time, Zhao Yingying turned her eyes and stared at Kang Xiaoqiao with a pair of cold eyes. "Don't be proud. We'll see."
Hearing that, Kang Xiaoqiao slowly stood up and said with disdain, "Proud? I, Kang Xiaoqiao, am proud to begin with, but you, Zhao Yingying, can only be disappointed."
"Oh, right, Doctor Zhao, I advise you to consider your face. It's not a glorious thing to think about a married man. Aren't you afraid of being scolded and pointed at by others?"
"Such shameless behavior. As a highly educated doctor, it's a little too... A little too lowly."
