When Cheng Zheng heard this, he almost couldn't help but clap and laugh. His silly brother!
In short, Fang Yan's summary of her relationship with Cheng Song was that they were very unsuitable.
As he drank the soup, Cheng Zheng's mind turned eighteen times. He pretended to say casually, "You just said marriage. What kind of person is suitable for marriage in your heart?"
"He'd have to be someone my grandma likes," Fang Yan blurted out, giving Cheng Zheng an unexpected answer.
"What about you? As long as Grandma is satisfied, you have no objections?"
Fang Yan tilted her head and looked at Cheng Zheng. Even when he was relaxed, Cheng Zheng still sat upright like a devout listener.
Fang Yan suddenly wanted to say what she was thinking. "Actually, it doesn't matter to me whether I get married or not. When I was young, I always wondered why girls had to get married. Is living alone a very embarrassing thing? When I'm doing what I love, and living with passion, do I still have to face the sympathy or criticism of others just because I don't have a perfect marriage?"
Cheng Zheng: "Then…"
"But Grandmother will be worried." Fang Yan knew what he wanted to ask. "Grandmother is old. She will be worried that I have no one to accompany me and that I need to be taken care of. In her opinion, marriage is a beautiful life experience. She hopes that I can have it too. If not, she will feel sorry for me."
Cheng Zheng was silent. He believed that Jiang Lan would not say this to Fang Yan, but Fang Yan knew. She was sharp.
This kind of Fang Yan made Cheng Zheng's heart ache. He tried to comfort her. "Have you talked to Grandma about this? Perhaps she will understand you."
"I don't want her to understand me." Fang Yan looked at Cheng Zheng with tears in her eyes. "I just want her to be happy."
Cheng Zheng's heart skipped a beat.
Jiang Lan was old and her illness had been lingering for a long time, and the craniotomy was even more damaging to her vitality. The damage to her body was irreversible. Even the best doctor could not do anything about it.
Fang Yan knew.
"I was too full of myself, but," Cheng Zheng continued, "I've never lost when it came to leaving a good impression on elders. Your grandmother should have a pretty good impression of me. Besides, didn't I ask you for help previously? Why don't you help me to the end, you…"
"Director Cheng!" Fang Yan did not let Cheng Zheng continue.
She thought she saw the sketched figure with the abs again, waving at her, telling her to choose him.
Fang Yan was grateful to Cheng Zheng. From the bottom of her heart, she felt that it was not a big deal to help someone by pretending to be his girlfriend. She was not someone who cared too much about other people's evaluations.
But she didn't want to continue using this cover now.
"I have my reasons for not looking forward to marriage. You're different. Maybe you can meet your life mate in the hospital? I don't want to ruin someone's marriage. You shouldn't avoid meeting anyone new anymore."
Fang Yan stood up and wanted to leave, but she felt that her tone was too harsh and the topic ended a little abruptly. She turned around and coughed a few times, advising Cheng Zheng not to take it to heart.
Looking at Fang Yan's fleeing figure, Cheng Zheng smiled bitterly and sighed. If Fang Yan was determined to ignore him, it would indeed be considered as destroying someone's marriage.
After the outpatient consultation ended, Cheng Zheng took shifts and finally had time to sleep peacefully.
Fang Yan stayed by her grandmother's side and received a call from Qi You, who had taken time out of her busy schedule.
"He really said that?" Qi You sat on the soft leather chair in the office and was a little excited. "Don't tell me the two of you are really together? Yanyan, why am I not by your side every time you're kidnapped?"
"No!"
Fang Yan glanced at her grandmother, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, and lowered her voice. "No, I've disappointed you, President Qi. There's no drama here for you!"
Qi You snorted softly. "I think Director Cheng is quite good. He's handsome and treats you well. If you really don't like him, just say it. Don't leave him hanging."
Did she like Cheng Zheng?
Fang Yan was thinking about Qi You's words. Frankly speaking, Cheng Zheng's kindness made Fang Yan a little helpless. She was afraid that she would not be able to bear it and would easily let him down.
This was a feeling she had never had when facing Cheng Song.
On the other end of the phone, Qi You had already talked a lot, but Fang Yan was still thinking about the little muscle character from her dream.
Qi You was speechless. On second thought, he said, "But Yanyan, it's fine if you think on it a bit more. When it comes to choosing a man, you have to choose the one you like the most. It's best if you love him to the core. The kind that you can risk your life for."
