Chapter Eighty-Five: Disappointment
Fu Zichen simply refused Yin Zi's wayward request, but left her at home.
He's so unpredictable.
Tang Luoran told himself not to care, but he stayed awake all night.
She opened her eyes and watched the heavy night outside the window fade little by little, replaced by a bleak white, and there was no warm sun, only the chill invaded her body.
There was no heating in the room, and Fu Zichen did not come back.
Tang Luoran got up and got out of bed, even though she was dressed thickly, she still shivered with cold. For the first time this year, it was clear that winter was finally coming.
This chill came from the bottom of her heart.
Hurriedly washed up and went downstairs, Tang Luoran met Fu Zichen at the staircase, he was still wearing the black Armani suit he wore last night, and his delicate face showed a trace of exhaustion.
He still had a faint smell of alcohol on his body, and I think he knew that he went to drink last night.
Why? Did she do something wrong that annoyed him? Or was it that Yin Zi was happy to stay, so he went to drink and celebrate?
Tang Luoran had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but on the surface, he only had a short sentence, "Are you okay?" ”
"Nothing, some drink." Fu Zichen nodded lightly, suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed her wrist, and looked up at her - Tang Luoran stood on the penultimate step, barely able to look down at him standing on the flat ground.
Here it is again, and his inexplicable tenderness always makes her nervous.
"What's wrong?" Tang Luoran stiffened his face, and he didn't be gentle with him because of this.
The cold attitude made him hesitate, as if he was hesitating to withdraw his hand, but in the end, he still chose to clench it and said straight to the point, "I have something I want to tell you, can you-"
"It's getting late, I'm going to work." Tang Luoran shook off his hand and decisively interrupted his words, not giving him any chance to explain last night's decision at all.
Anyway, for her, the only thing that matters is the result.
With that, she shook her hand and left, bypassing him and stepping down the steps, and Fu Zichen's face sank, his body was as heavy as lead, and he couldn't move, so he could only watch Tang Luoran pass by him.
Is he getting farther and farther away from Tang Luoran?
Fu Zichen was in pain, but it had no effect, and Tang Luoran had already walked away.
In order to avoid misunderstanding, she rushed out of the house without even eating breakfast.
……
According to the customary transfer, the driver will transfer you to the hospital.
When he got out of the car, Tang Luoran suddenly remembered that he didn't have anything to say, so he turned around and knocked on the window again, and patiently waited for the driver to roll down the window.
She coldly told the driver, "You don't have to pick me up in the future, I can drive by myself." ”
"But—"
The driver was just about to refute, but was immediately blocked back by Tang Luoran, "Don't worry, you tell Fu Zichen directly, he will agree, and there is no reason for him not to agree, goodbye." ”
Without giving the driver a chance to talk back, Tang Luoran turned around and walked towards the hospital.
In the past five years, including recently, her attitude has not been so resolute.
Step by step on the steps, Tang Luoran pushed open the revolving door, and her appearance immediately attracted the attention of most of the people present, but despite this, she still walked in the direction of the elevator without squinting.
From the hall to the lounge of the obstetrics and gynecology department, Tang Luoran had a tense face from beginning to end, almost expressionless, and she usually gave people a feeling of coldness, but she was still alive.
Now it makes people feel like she has lost her soul, and only her body is left.
Of course, Tang Luoran is much more careful than others in her work, and after she completed a three-hour operation, she finally found a trace of ground.
The pregnant woman has been pushed out of the operating room, and the rest of the nurses and assistants are cleaning up.
Tang Luoran took off her blood-stained gloves, stood in front of the washbasin in the corner, washed and dried her hands, and when she turned around, she saw her assistant walking towards her.
"Dr. Tang, aren't you going to dinner with us?" The assistant cautiously asked, in fact, this was the first time she had invited her to dinner.
In the six years since Tang Luoran took office, almost no one has seen her have a particularly good relationship with anyone in the hospital.
However, Zheng Xiaoying is excepted.
"I've already made an appointment." Calmly responding to his assistant, Tang Luoran put his hand into the outer pocket of his white coat.
As soon as she looked up, she saw Zheng Xiaoying standing at the door waiting, and when she found that Tang Luoran was paying attention to herself, she showed a bright smile.
……
followed Zheng Xiaoying's footsteps downstairs and dined in a western restaurant near the hospital.
As soon as the chef brought the appetizer up, Zheng Xiaoying began to lose her mouth, and asked mysteriously in a low voice, "Eh, how are you and Jiang Hanchen doing now?" ”
She's put a lot of effort into getting the two of them together, but don't give her a fool.
Tang Luoran lowered his head and enjoyed the delicious meal, and responded to her casually, "What can I do, the vice dean is very gentle, and he should have a good relationship with whomever he wants, so there is no need to ask me specifically." ”
In fact, she understands Zheng Xiaoying's thoughts, but she just wants to tease this girl who is good at asserting.
"What, haven't you noticed yet? Jiang Hanchen's eyes on you are not the same as he does to others, he is just interesting to you, take advantage of this opportunity, you should take advantage of it-" Zheng Xiaoying said, suddenly took the initiative to stop, and squinted at her suspiciously.
Tang Luoran didn't know why, he thought something was happening, but as soon as he raised his head, he met that kind of suspicious look.
Needless to say, my friend must have wanted to go somewhere else.
"Don't think about it too much, I'm already dead set on Fu Zichen, especially since he actually agreed to let her stay at home after Yin Zi's big quarrel yesterday, I knew that there was no possibility between us." There was a hint of loneliness in his indifferent tone, and Tang Luoran pretended not to care.
In the end, she was still very disappointed in Fu Zichen, but she didn't want to admit it.
Others knew what she was thinking when they saw her with such a lost look, not to mention her friend Zheng Xiaoying, she felt distressed, but she didn't know what to say to comfort Tang Luoran, "I said you, don't be sad." ”
"What's sad, I'm not sad when I said it, it's better to mourn than to die, that's how I feel now." Tang Luoran smiled indifferently, she immediately lowered her head and brought the food to her mouth.
In fact, she didn't have an appetite, but in order to pretend that nothing happened, she still forced it in.
Taking advantage of her trance, Zheng Xiaoying leaned her head closer to her again, and suddenly said nervously, "Do you want to change your mood?" Anyway, sooner or later, you will have to divorce Fu Zichen. ”
"......" Tang Luoran subconsciously leaned back, she always had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, the so-called advice given to her by her friend was actually all unrealistic dreams - trying to date other men.
As she expected, Zheng Xiaoying took the opportunity to put forward Jiang Hanchen's consideration.
When she smiled, the studs on her ears all exuded dazzling light, and the sincere light flashed in her eyes, so that Tang Luoran couldn't resist it at all, so she had to let go, "I know, after the divorce, I will think about it." ”
"Why do you want to get divorced, you can already start thinking about it now." Zheng Xiaoying took the fork in her mouth, opened her round eyes, and looked at her innocently, looking pitiful.
After all, it is not hard-hearted, Tang Luoran sighed helplessly, and changed his words again, "I know, let's think about it now, but it also depends on whether the other party has any intentions, maybe he just treats me as an ordinary friend." ”
As soon as the words fell, her friend's reaction was much more excited than hers, and she almost jumped up and slapped the table, she was excited, as if she had waited for a long time to get this answer.
"You don't have to worry about this, I can guarantee that he must be sincere with you."
Although "......" doesn't understand why Zheng Xiaoying likes to match her and Jiang Hanchen so much, Tang Luoran knows in her heart that Zheng Xiaoying is the only friend in this world who cares about her without any purpose, and she is like a relative.
But right now, can't Zheng Xiaoying sit down and talk well? Why did you stand up again while talking?
Eating and chatting, a meal took nearly an hour to solve.
Tang Luoran saw that the time was not early, and immediately panicked, and hurriedly got up to leave, "I have another operation to do in the afternoon, I won't talk to you here, you eat slowly." ”
Zheng Xiaoying expressed her understanding, and let her put the money on the table and left.
And after Tang Luoran walked away, she raised her head from the empty plate that had been eaten and wiped clean, showed a sly smile, and put her hand in her pocket to take out her mobile phone and call Jiang Hanchen.
Conveyed everything Tang Luoran just said to Jiang Hanchen word for word, Zheng Xiaoying didn't forget to remind him, "Anyway, you just have to stick to it now, she will be shaken sooner or later, but don't show your stuff, she doesn't know that I told you this." ”
"Got it, thank you." Jiang Hanchen's laughing voice came from the other end of the phone, and he was pleased with the result.
After hanging up the phone, Zheng Xiaoying showed a smug smile, she was quite relieved of her vision, this time she would definitely not let Tang Luoran choose the wrong person again.
Putting her phone in her pocket, she got up to leave.
Who knew that as soon as she turned around, she ran into Song Jiajia head-on - Song Jiajia strained her face and glared angrily.
"What did you say to Jiang Hanchen? He probably didn't plan to chase Tang Luoran. ”
Song Jiajia folded her hands on her chest, looking arrogant, and she didn't care about the other party's feelings when she spoke.
Unfortunately, Zheng Xiaoying specializes in this kind of self-righteous petty public act.
She snorted coldly, pursed her lips, and retorted unceremoniously, "Did I say anything to him?" How did I not know? Also, does he want to chase Luo Ran and take care of your business, are you Luo Ran's admirer? Or are you supposed to be interesting to the vice president? ”
When she said this, she hit Song Jiajia's heart, and she suddenly blushed, and retorted hesitantly, "I want you to take care of it." ”
With that, he turned around and strode out of the restaurant.
Of course, Zheng Xiaoying would not have guessed that her heroic behavior this time had also become one of the reasons why Song Jiajia held a grudge against Tang Luoran.
This means that another bloody storm is coming.
