Qin Mucheng’s lips twitched. “Then turn off the lights and go to sleep. It’ll be fine as long as you can’t see my face.”
Ji Yuanyuan blinked. A moment later, just as Qin Mucheng had said, she reached out and turned off the lights in the room.
Qin Mucheng froze there and did not know what to say.
He was joking, but he did not expect Ji Yuanyuan to take his joke seriously.
Just as Qin Mucheng was at a loss on how to end the situation, a burst of suppressed laughter suddenly came from the side.
Qin Mucheng finally realized that Ji Yuanyuan was teasing him on purpose.
He reached out and turned on the night light again. Then, he pulled out the blanket and covered Ji Yuanyuan with it.
Not long after, Ji Yuanyuan’s m.u.f.fled voice could be heard from under the blanket. “Are you a pervert? Why did you turn on the lights again?”
Qin Mucheng did not say a word and continued to work silently.
The next morning, Ji Yuanyuan went to look for Wu Qiuyun before he could start her ward rounds.
This time, she clearly expressed her stance.
After careful consideration, Wu Qiuyun could not help but be a little disappointed.
She asked again, “Really… Have you thought it through?”
“Yes, I’ve thought about it.” Ji Yuanyuan nodded.
Wu Qiuyun opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
After a long while, she muttered, “Alright, alright…”
Seeing this, Ji Yuanyuan could not help but feel a little guilty.
She knew that Wu Qiuyun had high hopes for her, but for the sake of her private life, she could only choose to let Wu Qiuyun down.
“I’m sorry,” she said softly. “I’ve disappointed you.”
Wu Qiuyun looked at Ji Yuanyuan. She wanted to smile and say that it was okay, but she could not say it at the moment.
Therefore, Wu Qiuyun’s expression was a little strange at this moment.
After a moment, she finally gave up struggling. With a bitter face, she sighed lightly. “I’m indeed a little disappointed. If it were me, I would definitely go. To me, no one is more important than my career.”
How could Ji Yuanyuan not know?
She lowered her head and patiently listened to Wu Qiuyun’s lecture.
“It’s not for a promotion or a raise. It’s just to learn more and save more people. Of course, I can understand your choice rationally. You’re different from me. You have a family and a daughter. But…”
Wu Qiuyun paused for a moment. “I’m a little disappointed emotionally.”
Wu Qiuyun’s words were considered to be more tactful.
She was more than a little disappointed. She was probably very disappointed.
“I’m sorry.” Ji Yuanyuan could only continue.
Wu Qiuyun could finally laugh this time.
She stood up and patted Ji Yuanyuan’s shoulder. “As long as you don’t regret it, you don’t have to apologize to me. Actually, you’re already very hardworking. It’s just that my expectations of you are too high.”
Among all the students she had taught, Ji Yuanyuan was the most talented, hardworking, and responsible.
Ji Yuanyuan still wanted to say something, but Wu Qiuyun waved her hand. “Go out. It’s time for ward rounds.”
Ji Yuanyuan nodded and left Wu Qiuyun’s office.
After Ji Yuanyuan closed the door and left, Wu Qiuyun returned to her seat.
She looked up at the ceiling, her eyes glazed over.
Among all the students, she liked Ji Yuanyuan the most, so she had the highest expectations of Ji Yuanyuan.
One can be disappointed if they have a request.
She was already old, and her presbyopia was getting worse.
She wanted to see Ji Yuanyuan grow up and have a successor.
She let out a long sigh and closed her eyes dejectedly.
Coming out of Wu Qiuyun’s office, Ji Yuanyuan b.u.mped into Cao Xiaorui.
“Did Teacher Wu talk to you again?” she asked curiously..
