Chapter 426 Heartless in a CEO Novel (6)
"How old is the male lead, Nian Nian?"
"Twenty-nine this year, what's wrong? Although it's a bit unreasonable, in the world of domineering CEO novels, it's not good to set someone too old." Nian Nian said with a puzzled tone.
It's still Saturday tonight, so why is Mi asking the male lead?
Could it be,
"You ran into the male and female leads, Youmi?"
"I don't know, it shouldn't be. The person in that car looked older than twenty or thirty. At least forty, right?" Xia Youmi stroked her chin. "If it were the male lead's father, wouldn't he be too young?"
"Youmi, why don't you take a look at the plot to confirm?" Niannian tentatively suggested to Xia Youmi.
"No! I don't want to see it... but it feels like it's happening right before my eyes, so it's probably related to the main storyline."
Xia Youmi didn't bring Niannian with her when she went out, and she wasn't sure if she could still call the system remotely. She was a little worried that communication and response would consume too much energy.
Don't think she couldn't guess; Nian Nian must have been hiding some of its health problems from her.
They must have been teleported together, but why is she still so small even though she's already twenty-two? After several days of observation and weighing, it was found that Nian Nian has been growing.
This indicates that its body will develop naturally, but the age difference can only be related to its injury.
Why is the connection weak?
Perhaps it was because Xia Youmi took too long to find it, and the other party went through birth, aging, sickness and death time and time again.
Without Xia Youmi to take care of her, how will Nian Nian live a nomadic life?
These things, such as one person unifying the country, haven't been discussed yet, but they are conceivable.
"it is good."
"I'll analyze the plot with you again tomorrow," Niannian said, ensuring that the room would be undisturbed by the plot this Saturday.
"Well, go to sleep."
Shortly after Yu Li returned, he was called to work overtime. The pet hospital had sent a patient from his department, but they were already too busy with surgeries that night. The injury was urgent, so Yu Li temporarily filled in.
Xia Youmi calculated the time, took a nap first, and if the person still hadn't returned by one or two o'clock, she would go and deliver a late-night snack.
The wonderful taste of life should be made up of countless little surprises, doing good for others while making yourself happy at the same time.
......
Sunday, 2 a.m.
The pet hospital is located opposite a residential complex that is closest to the city center. This complex is more expensive and upscale, and it is designed to be pet-friendly.
It is said that the relocation of the hospital was decided by the residents of the community through personal connections and financial resources.
The original hospital was located within the agricultural university. It grew stronger and stronger with the increasing number of technical experts and elites, which attracted many investors.
Over time, it grew to this scale and became one of the most well-known pet treatment centers in the country. However, in most cases, residents of the community have priority, and pet owners who live further away rarely get an appointment for treatment.
Xia Youmi was greeted with a smile from the receptionist when she entered.
Even though she didn't have her pet with her and didn't seem to be a customer, her service was still impeccable.
After explaining which department she wanted to go to, the other party did not object. They simply contacted the staff on duty, verified Xia Youmi's identity, and then kindly guided her to the office.
Xia Youmi wasn't visiting Yu Li for the first time. Although she looked familiar, respecting the procedures was the right thing to do.
Neither she nor the receptionist showed the slightest impatience.
"Tea, please."
"Thank you!"
After the staff member on duty delivered the tea, he asked Xia Youmi to wait a moment, saying that Dr. Yu's surgery was nearing its end and he would probably be back soon.
After thanking them,
The other person then quietly returned to their place.
"I said! You have to give me a guarantee!" A sharp female voice came from afar, seemingly heading towards their office. The young woman on duty jumped up, ready for anything.
"precious......"
"Ms. Bao, we did our best to save her, and naturally we don't want anything to happen to Xingxing again."
"Then explain yourself clearly, I'm recording this!"
Xia Youmi and the girl on duty both frowned.
"Knock knock!" The door was knocked and pushed open at the same time. Two men and a woman walked in. The one in the lead was Yu Li, who had a serious expression. There was also a noblewoman and a middle-aged man whom they had met just last night.
"Youmi." Yu Li first spotted his girlfriend. He smiled briefly, then quickly turned his back so the couple wouldn't see.
"Doctor," Xia Youmi said, feigning ignorance.
This statement could be interpreted as her being a client, but it also didn't deny the relationship. Even the staff on duty didn't seem to notice anything unusual, assuming it was just Dr. Yu and his girlfriend having some fun.
Xia Youmi had no reason to justify her actions; she simply subconsciously felt that it would be better not to easily expose their relationship.
At present, Yu Li seems to have encountered trouble.
If she goes up to someone and starts being affectionate, it might backfire.
Yu Li understood Xia Youmi's meaning from her blinking gesture and said seriously, "I still have surgery to do, so let's go back first. We'll talk about Niannian's situation tomorrow, don't worry."
"Okay, doctor," Xia Youmi replied. "Please take care of yourself, doctor! Thank you!"
Xia Youmi was escorted out the door by Yu Li, and they brushed past the man standing outside.
The man still exuded a cold aura, but his gaze never left the two of them; on the surface, he seemed unaware of who he was looking at.
But both Xia Youmi and Yu Li could sense that he was staring at Xia Youmi and scrutinizing her.
After seeing him out,
Yu Li stepped aside to block the other man's view. He didn't glare at the man rashly, but the atmosphere became even more tense.
"Ms. Bao, about Xingxing's illness..."
"Mu Yongqing!" Yu Li was about to discuss Xingxing's situation with its wealthy owner when she was interrupted by an angry female voice.
"What are you looking at so intently! That woman just now!" Ms. Bao's head was buzzing. "Can't you see anything good? She came to see the vet in the middle of the night without her pet. Don't you know what she's after?"
"Baoduo".
"Ms. Bao, please don't slander people so easily!"
The man and Yu Li both spoke up to stop her at the same time; at least, in the eyes of the girl on duty, this was simply adding fuel to the fire.
But Ms. Bao Duo's anger was not directed at Yu Li; instead, she continued to vent her dissatisfaction to her husband, Mu Yongqing.
"I'm not even dead yet! And you're already looking for fresh girls! What kind of eyesight do you have? No matter how well you pretend, I can see through you in an instant!"
"Baoduo, that's enough!" The man's voice was as cold as ice, as if his thoughts had been exposed.
"Ha! So you've found someone you like and you're already protecting them? Don't you even look at them? Do you even think they look down on you, old man!"
"Pfft—" The young girl on duty couldn't help but laugh and could only cover her face to minimize her presence.
Yu Li was so angry he was speechless; he really wanted to just kick the person out.
But this Ms. Bao is really too difficult to deal with. Not only is she a member of the hospital's pet owners' committee, but she is also a powerful and influential lady who is not afraid of trouble and loves to cause trouble.
If she can yell at her successful husband, she's very likely to send someone to yell at Xia Youmi too.
He must not be too impulsive or act rashly.
Yu Li understands the principle of compromise that happy people follow. He doesn't want his actions of protecting his girlfriend to cause conflict in their small family.
This is a woman who, once she gets involved, is impossible to shake off.
During the shift handover, the leader repeatedly emphasized this point.
But being unable to stand up for his girlfriend still left Yu Li feeling disappointed. His demeanor suddenly plummeted, and where no one could see, he revealed the same grievance as Nian Nian.
However, fortune and misfortune are intertwined.
The couple's argument shifted the conflict from a doctor-patient dispute to a matter of emotional entanglement, stemming from the conflict over ensuring Xingxing's future health.
Baoduo didn't keep bothering Dr. Yu. Instead, she made a phone call directly to the hospital director, saying that if anything went wrong, the hospital would prioritize her care and waive all treatment fees. The director readily agreed.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief as the couple left the hospital.
Yu Li brought Xia Youmi as a late-night snack and heated it in the microwave while writing a surgical report at her desk.
Although the hospital director took responsibility, Yu Li's post-operative procedures still could not be delayed.
Besides, now that his girlfriend was asleep, he had no more worries and would spend more time with her tomorrow.
......
Xia Youmi ran home in silence and immediately hugged Niannian tightly.
Even though she didn't know the other person yet, she had this strange feeling that if the other person wasn't the male lead, then they must be a character related to her.
This world is so bad!
She only wanted to delay knowing the original text by one day, but she kept running into plot points.
I don't even dare to think about what's to come!
I've been puzzled every year. There are indeed no plot points related to Yomi now. In the original story, it's all a year later, which is correct. Also, Yomi didn't suffer any losses at the beginning.
Ugh,
It seems that
This change is significant.
However, she knew that Mi always had an inexplicable insistence on order in some small matters, and since they had agreed to watch the plot on Sunday night, she definitely wouldn't ask any more questions now. After sending Yu Li a message that she had arrived home and gone to bed, telling her to catch up on her sleep tomorrow morning, she went over to cook dinner.
Xia Youmi quickly fell asleep amidst her unease.
The more anxious and tired she was, the faster she fell asleep.
This constitution is enough to drive a whole bunch of people crazy.
