I'm a Professional Doctor

When dinner began, Du Linxi was seated next to Ming Qu. Ming Qu took a quick glance at him and her eyes met Ming Lai's, who was next to him. With just that glance, Ming Qu quickly turned to look away.

When it came time to eat, Du Linxi put food in her bowl first, which drew the attention of the Du family.

Ming Qu did not show any embarrassment. Instead, she openly thanked him.

Dinner was enjoyable. Once, Ming Qu had gone to the bathroom. When she emerged, Du Linxi was waiting at the door.

He leaned against the wall and seemed to be deep in thought. Seeing her as she came out, he smiled casually. "Why didn't I realize before that you are much more interesting than your sister?"

Ming Qu was disdainful. Her lips curled as she mocked, "I don't speak much to blind people."

With that, she walked past him and left, taking large strides.

Du Linxi was not angry. He smiled and chased after her.

It was already ten o'clock when they had finished dinner.

Ming Qu was looking through some investment data at this time. Seeing that the rest of the Ming family still seemed to want to chat with the Du family, she made up an excuse to leave early. As she was leaving, before getting into her car, she caught a glimpse of two people doing something unspeakable behind the curtains of the second floor of the Du family's villa. 

She guessed that it was Ming Lai. Sneering, she got into the car to leave.

Just as she had reached home, a phone call came from Gu Yuzhen.

As her car pulled to a stop in front of the Ming family's villa, through the windshield, she noticed a black Rolls-Royce parked by the side of the road not far away.

Ming Qu was a little confused. Gu Yuzhen had just hung up the phone after seeing that she had arrived.

As she was thinking, she saw Gu Yuzhen emerge from the Rolls-Royce.

Ming Qu couldn't stay any longer, and she had to get out of the car.

"Why are you here?"

She smiled as she ran towards the man. He held his arms outstretched, and held her in his embrace. He sniffed at her hair. After a long time, he let out a heavy sigh in her ear. "There's something going on in France. I need to go back to deal with it."

He let go of Ming Qu and caressed her face as he spoke slowly.

Ming Qu raised her head slightly, looking into his deep eyes. She was speechless for a moment.

He had not told her that he had to leave through the phone. Instead, he came to see her personally to tell her himself.

Ming Qu was touched.

She hummed softly as she nodded.

Gu Yuzhen's gaze seemed reluctant to leave. After a while, he said, "Stay safe. I'll have a surprise for you when I return."

The pair separated.

Ming Qu stood on the balcony of the second floor as she watched Gu Yuzhen's car leave. She felt a sense of disappointment rise in her heart.

He had become an inseparable part of her.

Over time, as they had spent time together, she had unknowingly developed an inexplicable affection for him. Now that they would not see each other for a while, it would be a lie to say that she wasn't worried.

However, she didn't die back then, and now she had to take her revenge. Regardless, she had never accounted for Gu Yuzhen's appearance, or that he would become the most important person in her life.

As news of the marriage between the Ming and Du families spread, Ming Lai's mood slowly grew solemn.

Ming Qu's mind couldn't help but wander off.

She was afraid that because of Gu Yuzhen's appearance, she was developing strange thoughts.

Anyhow, it was true that a man like Gu Yuzhen was indeed a rarity. Which woman wouldn't want to lay claim to his body and his face?

"Ming Qu? Why are you..."

Ming Qu was just returning to her department after using the bathroom when she bumped into Ming Lai at the elevator.

She looked up and down at the white coat on Ming Qu's body. Her eyes were filled with disbelief.

"I'm a professional doctor. Is that so strange?"

Seeing her like this, Ming Qu was pleased with her reaction.

Ming Lai looked at her, close to losing her temper.

However, because they were in public, she had to uphold the Ming family's reputation. She couldn't act undignified as the eldest daughter.

"I can't be bothered with you. I'll let Mom deal with you when I go back tonight."

Ming Lai suppressed herself as she glared at her fiercely. Then, she turned and left.

Ming Qu's expression turned cold as she looked at her fleeing back.

It should have been a respectable matter that she had come to take up her position. Could it be that in the eyes of the Ming family, this was shameful?

How outrageous!

Ming Qu stayed in her department for a while. Seeing that there were no patients at the moment, she headed towards the archive room.
