Chapter 367: He Needs To Be Scolded
This was Wei Shuyi’s second time meeting this man.
“h.e.l.lo, Brother Wei…”
As soon as Jiaren Wu’s voice came from the receiver, Wei Shuyi hung up.
At the same time, he subconsciously switched off his phone.
Dongli Shenghua looked up and saw the man standing at the door.
Wei Shuyi, who was wearing a smoky gray s.h.i.+rt, stood tall and straight; he was almost parallel to the door frame. He held his phone in one hand, and his other hand was in his pocket. On his handsome and gentle face, a pair of beautiful lips were tightly pursed as he sized up the man in front of him.
Dongli Shenghua nodded at him and said, “Mr. Wei, are you free?”
“What do you want?” Wei Shuyi did not like him at all, and it was hard for him to pretend to be friendly with him. He frowned and showed his professionalism as a doctor. He said to Dongli Shenghua, “Is your heart not feeling well? You have to register yourself. I won’t treat patients privately.”
His words crushed Dongli Shenghua’s good temper.
His thin red lips parted. After a while, he stiffly said, “Mr. Wei is so interesting.”
Wei Shuyi smiled slightly. “Mr. Dongli, if you want to register, you have to go to the outpatient building first.” Then, he kindly pointed at a building on his left and introduced it to Dongli Shenghua. “The outpatient building is this one.”
Dongli Shenghua almost lost his composure.
“No, I’m here to look for you, Mr. Wei.”
“For a private matter?”
“Right.”
Wei Shuyi apologetically smiled. He looked at his watch and apologetically said to Dongli Shenghua, “Then I’ll have to trouble Mr. Dongli to wait for a while. It’s office hours now. If there’s anything, we can talk after work.”
“Okay.”
Dongli Shenghua expressionlessly watched as Wei Shuyi turned around and returned to the hospital building.
Wei Shuyi turned around and the smile on his face disappeared.
What did Dongli Shenghua want to talk to me about?
He went back to his office and found a biscuit from the drawer. He ate some of it casually until it was time to get off work. Then, he slowly packed his things and went downstairs.
Wei Shuyi was rather surprised to see that Dongli Shenghua’s car was still parked there.
He’s so patient. What does he want to talk to me about?
Wei Shuyi knocked on the door of Dongli Shenghua’s car.
Dongli Shenghua rolled down the car window and looked at Wei Shuyi. He saw Wei Shuyi carrying his bag and said with a fake smile, “It seems like Mr. Wei is very busy.” Wei Shuyi would get off work at 5: 40 pm, but it was almost 6: 30 pm. It took him more than half an hour to pack his things.
Wei Shuyi waved his hand and replied, “There were many patients, so I was delayed.”
Naturally, Dongli Shenghua would not expose him.
“What does Mr. Dongli have to tell me?”
“Mr. Wei, if you’re not busy, let me treat you to a meal.”
It was already after work, what else could he be busy with?
Wei Shuyi had no choice but to accept his invitation.
Wei Shuyi drove his Volvo. His car followed Dongli Shenghua’s. Finally, both cars stopped at the entrance of a j.a.panese restaurant.
The two of them entered the restaurant and ordered dishes. However, Dongli Shenghua still did not reveal his intentions.
Wei Shuyi waited until the food was served on the table for a long time before he took out his phone to play a game.
Dongli Shenghua stared at this person and frowned.
He’s already 30 years old, yet is still playing games. He’s too much of a child.
“I thought that those who play games are children.” Dongli Shenghua said something that seemed irrelevant.
Wei Shuyi was so engrossed in the game that he could not extricate himself from it. He only said, “People can be young at heart.”
“Ha.”
Dongli Shenghua gently rubbed his fingers against the wine gla.s.s and suddenly said, “So Miss Wu likes someone like this.”
Wei Shuyi’s fingers paused in mid-air.
He turned off the game and raised his head, staring straight at Dongli Shenghua.
“Is Mr. Dongli very curious about me?”
Dongli Shenghua did not avoid his question. He shook his gla.s.s and looked at the clear liquid in it. He said in a low voice, “I confessed to Miss Wu.”
Wei Shuyi narrowed his eyes and remained silent.
“But she refused.”
Wei Shuyi smiled and said, “Of course, she loves me very much.”
Dongli Shenghua was somewhat speechless.
After a while, he said, “I’m very curious about what kind of man Miss Wu likes.” His gaze swept up and down Wei Shuyi’s body. After looking at him, he said strangely, “So this is what he looks like.”
Wei Shuyi did not probe further. He was not a good person in Dongli Shenghua’s eyes.
When the food was served, he took a bite. His mouth was filled with a strange taste, and he immediately put down his chopsticks.
Wei Shuyi said, “I’m not used to j.a.panese food. Sorry for making you laugh.”
Shaking his head slightly, Dongli Shenghua understood. He said, “It’s okay. There will always be people who love and hate it.
“Of course.” Wei Shuyi took a sip of water. He still had to drive home and couldn’t drink.
After putting down the cup, Wei Shuyi looked at the plates and chopsticks in front of him and said, “Some people like Chinese food, and some people like j.a.panese food. You insisted on letting those people who are used to Chinese food eat j.a.panese food. You think j.a.panese food is delicious and high-cla.s.s, but others only feel that their mouths are full of the fishy taste and that there are many rules.
“Dating is like eating. If you don’t like it, you don’t like it. What’s the point of forcing it?”
Wei Shuyi believed that Dongli Shenghua understood his meaning.
Dongli Shenghua stared at Wei Shuyi without blinking. He had underestimated this doctor.
His words are sarcastic and offensive. He is really not a pushover.
“But no one said that people who are used to Chinese food will not eat j.a.panese food.” Dongli Shenghua smiled. It was a pretty smile. Wei Shuyi had to admit that Dongli Shenghua was an outstanding person in all aspects.
Dongli Shenghua added. “Just like me, I didn’t eat j.a.panese food in the beginning. When I ate it for the first time, I also felt that it tasted strange, especially after I dipped it in mustard greens. It tasted even worse. But gradually, I became pa.s.sionate about j.a.panese food. So, Mr. Wei, how can you be sure that people who don’t like j.a.panese food in the beginning won’t like j.a.panese food in the future?”
Wei Shuyi’s face darkened.
It seemed like Dongli Shenghua was a thick-skinned person.
He sneered. It was rare for him to beat around the bush again.
Wei Shuyi went straight to the point and mocked Dongli Shenghua, “People’s tastes change. A person who likes Chinese food might fall in love with j.a.panese food. However, my Jiaren will never fall in love with another man, especially since this man is her uncle.”
Dongli Shenghua’s expression changed.
A cold light shot out from his eyes. His cold demeanor easily frightened others, but not Wei Shuyi, who was used to all kinds of situations.
If he could be scared so easily, he would not be worthy of holding a scalpel and saving other people’s lives.
“She even told you this…” Dongli Shenghua muttered to himself. Suddenly, he let out a low laugh. He raised his head and stared straight at Wei Shuyi. He curled his lips into a strange smile. Wei Shuyi felt that his smile was a little strange. It made him feel uncomfortable.
Dongli Shenghua suddenly said, “Mr. Wei, Jiaren is really good. Those who have tasted her beauty cannot bear to let go.
“If you don’t want to, I won’t either.”
Wei Shuyi’s expression changed drastically.
“What do you mean by that!”
What does he mean by having tasted her beauty?
Dongli Shenghua’s smile became even more sinister and difficult to read.
He didn’t explain in detail and only said to Wei Shuyi, “Last time in the Maldives, Jiaren Wu and I spent a day and night alone there.”
Wei Shuyi knew that Dongli Shenghua was a cunning man. His words could not be trusted.
But Dongli Shenghua’s words had become a thorn in his heart.
Last time in the Maldives…
Recalling the expensive black gown and the strange look in Jiaren Wu’s eyes when she came back from the Maldives and went to the hospital to look for him, he suddenly panicked.
Wei Shuyi dared not make wild guesses.
He immediately switched on his phone and called Jiaren Wu.
Jiaren Wu picked up quickly.
“Brother Wei…”
“If you’re free now, I want to see you.”
Jiaren Wu was a little happy. He was finally willing to see her.
“Sure.”
Wei Shuyi drove the car to the hospital and saw Jiaren Wu in the hospital field.
Jiaren Wu was sitting on a wooden bench in the field, playing with her phone.
It was not completely dark in Binjiang City at seven o’clock, but all the lights on the roadside of the sports field had been lit up. She sat there, and the lights from different directions singled her out from all directions. Every part of her figure was so beautiful.
Hearing footsteps, Jiaren Wu lifted her head. When she saw Wei Shuyi, her lips curled into a smile.
A beautiful smile blossomed on her face.
“Brother Wei…”
Wei Shuyi’s heart raced.
Thinking that this person was his, he couldn’t help but feel happy.
Wei Shuyi wanted to hide her away when he thought that there were other people openly coveting her.
He composed himself and walked toward her.
Jiaren Wu immediately grabbed his hand and started to chat with him. She talked about how annoying Dongli Ao was and how much she missed him…
“Dongli Shenghua came to see me this afternoon.”
Jiaren Wu suddenly fell silent upon hearing this.
She looked up at Wei Shuyi in shock.
“Why did he look for you?”
“To declare war on me.”
“Declare war?”
“Yeah.”
Seeing Jiaren Wu’s confused expression, Wei Shuyi said, “He’s declaring war on me. He wants to pursue you and compete with me.”
Jiaren Wu quickly said, “I don’t love him!”
“I know.”
The two of them sat down on the wooden chairs. Wei Shuyi was silent for a long time before he decided to come clean. “He told me something today.”
“What?” Jiaren Wu turned her head to look at him. She saw that Wei Shuyi seemed to find it difficult to continue speaking.
She was surprised, but she waited patiently.
Wei Shuyi’s right hand was being held by Jiaren Wu, but his left hand was resting on the wooden chair. His left thumb’s nail dug in his index finger.
He was struggling internally.
He knew that if he asked, it would represent his distrust of Jiaren Wu and his lack of confidence in their relations.h.i.+p.
But it was inappropriate not to ask.
“He said the last time you went to the Maldives, the two of you spent a day and a night alone. He also said something else.”
Jiaren Wu’s smile had completely disappeared.
It was not because she was angry at Wei Shuyi, but because she felt that what Dongli Shenghua had said and done was unreasonable.
“What did he say?” Jiaren Wu asked through gritted teeth.
Wei Shuyi said, “He said that those who have tasted your beauty can’t bear to let go. He can’t bear to let go of you.”
Hearing this, Jiaren Wu immediately opened her mouth to curse, “F*ck! When has he ever tasted my beauty? This dog, to drive a wedge between us, he’s simply unscrupulous. Just you wait, he’s asking for a scolding. Come, I’ll bring you to confront him!”
Jiaren Wu’s intense reaction startled Wei Shuyi.
But he was completely at ease.
“Forget it, I’m not going.” He didn’t really believe in Dongli Shenghua’s words. Jiaren Wu’s reaction confirmed that Dongli Shenghua was the one who was spouting nonsense.
However, Jiaren Wu wasn’t willing to let the matter drop. She insisted on bringing Wei Shuyi to the Dongli Shenghua to clarify things.
At this moment, Wei Shuyi’s phone rang.
He quickly picked it up. It was a call from the hospital informing him that a patient’s condition had changed and his heart rate had suddenly gone out of control.
“I have to rush to the hospital. Rest well.”
“Okay.”
As she watched Wei Shuyi’s figure disappear into the distance, Jiaren Wu’s angry expression finally disappeared.
Her face was filled with coldness.
Dongli Shenghua’s actions today had thoroughly angered her.
However, the fact that Wei Shuyi came to look for her today to ask if this was true hurt her.
Why didn’t he believe me?
Wei Shuyi drove as fast as he could towards the hospital. When he was about to reach Deep Sea Hospital, he b.u.mped into a small truck at the last traffic light.
Bang!
Wei Shuyi’s car slammed into the minivan and slid toward a flower bed at the side.
Bang!
With another loud bang, the car finally stopped.
