In the evening, Fang Tong returned from outside. Just as he was about to pass the beef and cantaloupe in his hand to Lin Manrou, he suddenly saw Ye Qingming, who was sitting beside her.

Seeing this, Ye Qingming stood up and greeted Fang Tong. Although Fang Tong was surprised, he still maintained his poise. After the two introduced themselves, they sat face to face, occasionally chatting about nonchalant topics.

Lin Qingrou sat by the side, playing with her phone. She was not interested in the conversations between the men, so she might as well stay far away from them. However, Fang Tong's eyesight was sharp, and as he tilted his head, he saw the ring that suddenly appeared on Lin Qingrou's hand.

When Ye Qingming returned to the phone in his room, Fang Tong suddenly asked with a hint of schadenfreude, "How is it, did you make up?"

Lin Qingrou shrugged and said, "Yes, just now. "Hey, you don't look too good. Are you sick?" she asked worriedly.

Fang Tong clapped his hands as if he was celebrating. He said sourly, "I'm fine. I'm fine. However, it seems like the person wearing the ring is different.

Lin Qingrou rolled her eyes at him, no longer caring whether his expression was good or not, "Stingy, just call me stingy from now on." "Oh yeah, where did you go?"

Fang Tong took a deep breath and coughed, then folded his arms behind his head and said leisurely, "Let's go to see a friend in the back street, old fellow villager."

Lin Qingrou said in surprise, "Fellow villagers? Your sweetheart? "

Fang Tong glanced at her, then went back to the kitchen to help Brother Li cook.

Lin Qingrou sat there laughing. She could not help but mutter in her heart, "Fang Xiaozui really does live up to his name."

At this moment, while she was chatting on WeChat with Liu Yuxi, she heard a familiar voice arguing in the distance.

"I've always listened to you before, but can't you listen to me this time around?!"

"Then what do you want me to do? I've kept it for three years, and now you want me to throw it away? "

"I didn't tell you to throw it away. You put it with your parents, or with my parents. "As long as you finish giving birth and the child slowly reaches the age of one or two, we can still bring it back and raise it again. Is there any conflict between us?"

"No!" I just don't agree! The people abroad are all raising pets while they're pregnant and having kids to live their lives, why is it that you can't do anything about it?! "

"You don't fool me with foreigners," he said. "Now the proportion of toxoplasmosis born to cats in France and the United States is the highest in the world. You told me about foreign countries!? "

Lin Qingrou looked behind her. It turned out to be the honeymoon couple — Song Ting and Xu Tian.

Song Ting walked in while crying. She didn't even think as she sat down beside Lin Qingrou. Then, she began to sob softly on the sofa. Xu Tian stood on the side awkwardly and angrily, not wanting to say another word.

Lin Qingrou saw that because of her seat, she had already been drawn into the argument between the young couple. After thinking about it for a while, she felt that if she left now, it would seem too cold. He could only pass the tissue beside his hand to Song Ting. Afterwards, she stood up and gestured for Xu Tian to sit down and comfort her.

Ye Qingming walked down the phone as he called. He saw Lin Qingrou standing unnaturally on the ground. He couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"

Lin Qingrou shook her head, indicating that he should just make the call.

Ye Qingming nodded and walked to the door, "I think the signal has improved a little. Tell me."

"If the patient asks to be discharged, arrange for them to be discharged first. Before leaving the hospital, however, the family had to sign the contract. As for the post-operative medication, you have to be careful. There will be a few interns next month. You should remember to make the arrangements well, especially regarding the orders. You should be more careful. "

With that, Ye Qingming turned around and returned to the inn. He looked at Lin Qingrou with a puzzled expression.

Xu Tian stood up at this moment and looked at Ye Qingming and then at Lin Qingrou.

Only then did Lin Qingrou react. She quickly explained to Xu Tian, "This is … "I …" While she was hesitating to say that her boyfriend was still her friend, Ye Qingming spoke up for her: "Fiancé."

Lin Qingrou looked at him unwillingly. In the end, Ye Qingming had already grabbed her shoulders and pulled her into his arms.

Xu Tian acted as if he had met a savior as he said to Ye Qingming with a bitter face, "It's great that you're a doctor, we were arguing over this matter."

Seeing this, Lin Qingrou explained to Ye Qingming what she had heard earlier about Xu Tian and Song Ting's argument.

After Ye Qingming heard this, he said with a serious expression, "I don't know much about this, but I have a friend from the related department." I remember her saying that Toxoplasma gondii generally only affects pregnant women. But if you must have a cat during pregnancy, I suggest you keep it away from the area you live in, such as sheets, bedding, sofas, and so on. Wash your hands every time you touch it. Wash your hands in time even if you are touched by it. Pregnant women should not go to clean up their cats' daily necessities. This is common knowledge. "

At this time, Song Ting gradually recovered. She couldn't help but ask, "Then... If the doctor says it's not infected with the Toxoplasma, I don't have to worry, do I? "

Ye Qingming smiled, "The doctor can only guarantee that it will be fine during the examination, but that does not mean that it will always be fine. To put it bluntly, the number of pregnant women infected with Toxoplasma gondii is very, very small. "

When Song Ting heard this, she heaved a sigh of relief.

However, Ye Qingming paused and then continued, "However, for pregnant women, this is not something they can gamble with. Even if the probability is small, for every individual, there is a difference of 1 and 0. "

The moment Song Ting heard this, her expression became tense once more.

Lin Manrou touched Ye Qingming's back with her finger and whispered to him, "Are you talking too much?"

Ye Qingming took her hand down and held it in his own, saying, "Teach people to be cautious is good, seductive without fear is evil. "It's best to be serious. Be careful not to cause the ship to sail ten thousand years."

Lin Qingrou snickered at him. "Keeper."

After dinner, Lin Qingrou returned to his room to rest while Ye Qingming and Fang Tong went up to the roof.

Fang Tong was a little surprised. "I didn't think you'd like to come to the roof."

Ye Qingming was puzzled. "Why can't I like it?"

Fang Tong took a sip of the local wine from his glass and laughed self-deprecatingly. "The roof has always been a place for small fry like us, but I didn't expect you to be so 'unstoppable'."

People like it too. "

Ye Qingming asked in confusion, "I remember that we've never met before."

Fang Tong put down his wine cup. "Of course not, but I've heard of them." "With Ye Qingcheng's position in S City, everyone in the Ye family is familiar with him."

"However, the reason why I'm really familiar with you is because of Lin Qingrou. It was only after she was injured because of you that I found out that you had treated her … "Maybe it's not as good as I thought."

Ye Qingming's eyes turned cold. Although he was very curious about Fang Tong, he was still mostly on guard.

"What do you mean?"

Fang Tong looked at him as if he didn't want to tell him the answer. He slowly finished the wine in his cup and then leisurely walked down the stairs on the roof.

Although Ye Qingming was curious, he had no choice but to suppress the waves in his heart as he watched him swagger away with that so-called "answer".

What would Lin Manshou say to him? Was she really that sure that Fang Tong was a reliable friend!?

The next morning, after Lin Qingrou, Ye Qingming, and Fang Tong had woken up, they gathered in the main hall of the inn.

However, Brother Li woke up earlier than them and had already finished cooking the steaming hot breakfast on the table.

Fang Tong ate some noodles as he said to Brother Li, "I don't know when I'll come next time, so I have to eat more this time."

Lin Qingrou nodded. She looked at Fang Tong and said, "If you come again, remember to call me."

When Fang Tong heard this, he couldn't help but look at Ye Qingming. Seeing that he had only drank a cup of hot water and was resting against the side, he could not help but ask, "Are you alright?"

Ye Qingming looked at them and shook his head.

Lin Qingrou also noticed Ye Qingming's abnormality. She quickly finished her breakfast and sat down beside him. She used her hands to probe his forehead and found that he had a fever. She looked at her watch. The bus would be arriving soon, and it would be too late to get to the drugstore.

"My family has some medicine, I'll go get some." As she spoke, she returned to the kitchen and took out a bag of ointment mixed with hot water to boil. She then handed it to Lin Qingrou.

Ye Qingming's eyes were burning hot and his head felt like it was being pressed down by a thousand pounds. After he reluctantly drank the medicine, he forced himself to lean heavily against the wall behind him.

Lin Qingrou looked at Fang Tong with a troubled expression. When Fang Tong saw this, he suggested, "It looks like he really can't hold on any longer. How about …" You two changed your signatures? "

Lin Qingrou hesitated. Just as she was about to speak, Ye Qingming said in a trance, "It's alright. I can still hold on to such a small matter." It's better to go home as soon as possible, otherwise I won't be able to rest at ease. " After which, he turned to look at Lin Qingrou.

Lin Qingrou wanted to speak, but she hesitated. Although she knew that fever was not a serious illness for an adult, it would delay their journey. But at this moment, she suddenly didn't want to see Ye Qingming tired from all the traveling.

Therefore, she resolutely said to Fang Tong, "How about this, let's change the contract." No, I'll refund the ticket first. We'll leave a few days later when he's better. "

Fang Tong looked at her. "You've really decided?"

Lin Qingrou turned to look at Ye Qingming, "Mm, I've decided. There's nothing to hesitate about. " After she finished speaking, she smiled at him.

Brother Li suddenly said, "Hurry, the car is here."

He took his luggage and followed Brother Li to the road outside the inn. He turned around to look at Lin Qingrou, who had come to send him off, and couldn't help but say, "Go back, it's still cold in the morning."

Lin Qingrou wrapped her coat tightly around herself and shook her head with a smile, "I'm not cold. What am I afraid of?"

Fang Tong took out his ticket and twisted it around in his hand. He had already climbed up the steps of the car with one leg, so he turned back to Lin Manrou and said sincerely, "Remember to be careful of yourself. Don't show off all of your finesse so early." Men still like to explore, not to be straightforward. "

Lin Qingrou was amused by him, and said, "Keep these words for your sweetheart! "It's not like we'll be leaving forever. You still have to lead us when we get back to the company!"

"Hurry up, don't waste time driving!" The driver impatiently urged.

Seeing this, Fang Tong quickly got on the car and waved goodbye to Lin Qingrou, gesturing for her to return to the inn.

Lin Qingrou nodded at him, and then the door frame clanged shut. She then took Fang Tong and a few other passengers away, leaving a trail of dust on the dusty road.

When Brother Li and Lin Qingrou returned to the inn, they saw that Sister Li had just put down the phone.

"What's wrong?" Brother Li asked.

Sis Li looked at Lin Qingrou and said awkwardly, "Xiao Lin's boyfriend just went back to his room to rest. The person who called us is Dr. Ma from the back street. He said that he would bring the medicine over later. "

"What kind of medicine?" Lin Qingrou asked curiously.

Sis Li looked regretfully at her and said, "It's a medicine to remove scars, a secret recipe for Dr. Ma that most people don't have. Tsk tsk tsk, looks like Xiao Fang is really concerned about your matters. Before you two arrived, he asked me about this matter. In the end, he really did get it. "

Lin Qingrou's heart skipped a beat as she said with great difficulty, "This medicine …" How? Is it going to cost a lot of money? "

Sister Li was about to say something when Brother Li pulled her back into the kitchen. "The Xu couple will wake up soon. Make breakfast!" "I know where to nag!"

Lin Qingrou looked at the empty dining table and hall uneasily. Suddenly, a cold wind blew through the hall, making her heart tense up even more. Perhaps her nervousness came from being unable to bear Fang Tong's good intentions, or perhaps it was due to Fang Tong having another indescribable feeling towards her. But regardless of what it was, she could not afford it, nor was she worthy of accepting it.

Ye Qingming didn't see her for a long time. He came to the staircase and asked Lin Qingrou, "What happened just now?"

Lin Qingrou came back to her senses. Her eyes were red, and he almost noticed when she looked at Ye Qingming.

"Nothing, I was just chatting with Brother Li and the others." Are you better? " With that, Lin Qingrou headed upstairs, returning to his room with Ye Qingming.

Ye Qingming rubbed his temples. "I feel much better after sweating. It seems like the effects of the medicine are pretty good."

Lin Qingrou buttoned up his shirt and reminded him, "Since you're sweating, then don't run around. If it gets worse, do you want to save yourself?" It's not that big of a hospital. "

Ye Qingming listened to her blaming him for his rudeness. He could hear the worry in her voice. He asked, "Has Fang Tong already left?"

"Fang Tong?" Oh … He's gone. It'll take him about two hours to get downtown and then to the airport. "

Lin Qingrou came back to her senses and explained.

Even though Ye Qingming was not feeling well, he could tell that Lin Qingrou was not paying attention to him. He looked nervous as he asked seriously, "Are you thinking about Fang Tong?"

Lin Qingrou felt uncomfortable being asked this question, but he was also getting more agitated when he looked at her. She shook her head impatiently and said, "No, don't think too much about it. If you're not feeling well, then go back to your room and sleep for a while. "

With that, she turned to leave, returning to her room. However, how could Ye Qingming let her go? He took the opportunity to grab her wrist, locked her tightly by his side, and asked word by word, "Your relationship with Fang Tong is unclear, so you took the opportunity to leave." Your purpose is just to make me angry, and now that you've achieved your goal, what else do you want?! "

Lin Qingrou tried to break his hand off her wrist, but no matter how hard she tried, it was all in vain. Therefore, she could only endure as Ye Qingming tightly gripped her wrist and smiled, "I did indeed want to make you angry. I did want to make you worried. I want you to understand what you really want right now! I don't want to see you worry about Xing Ruonan's safety while being responsible for me to the end. I don't need... "I don't need Xing Ruonan to stay with me. If anything happens to her, she'll rush to her side!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a cold snake slithered up her spine. Her heart almost stopped beating because she was betting on who he, Ye Qingming, would choose at this moment. If he really did choose Xing Ruonan, it would mean that the conflict between the Ye Family and the Qi Family would once again silently escalate. If he hadn't chosen Xing Yumiao and given up on Lin Qingrou at the same time, he would have done the same. And if he chose Lin Qingrou right now, it would mean that he was determined to kill her single-mindedly.

Lin Qingrou had to let him choose, only then would he be able to clearly see his desire and love. Only by doing this could Lin Qingrou guarantee that he would not hesitate to side with her and secretly go against those people who were making things difficult for her.

After all, Ye Qingming was the biggest hope of the Ye Family for Ye Qingzhi and Ye Qingcheng. Therefore, if they were to find out about Ye Qingming, who they had placed their hopes on, it would only be a matter of time … Whether they would kill each other or not, that was what Lin Qingrou was most curious about, and that was what she wanted to see the most.

She silently looked at him, and seeing the ever-changing expression in his eyes that was like the depths of the sea, a feeling of retreat quickly came over her.

Lin Manrou saw that he was wavering, so she could only take a step back, "Don't say it, I understand … …" I'll leave. " She looked at him with a dazed expression, as if she was saying goodbye.

However, how could Ye Qingming let her go? To put it bluntly, he had chased her thousands of miles from B City to L City. Furthermore, she had suffered such grievances and injuries. Could it be that he had to give up on the person in front of him for the sake of a dreamy and ignorant dream?! Therefore, Ye Qingming knew clearly that this was a topic that should not be chosen the wrong way.

In the end, the two of them ended up in a stalemate. Finally, Ye Qingming was defeated and he took her into his arms. "I'm not hesitating between you and her, but I really don't know how to control you. I never knew what you were thinking, what you were going to do, nor did I know. So when I'm with you, I often feel an unknown fear. But only I know that I am caught up in this fear. "

"Isn't that a little strange?" he asked again.

Lin Qingrou heaved a sigh of relief. Although her hands were still cold, her heart was calming down – she seemed to have won the bet.

Her heart suddenly became as calm as still water, because she knew that from the moment she saw Ye Qingming at the inn, she had already won.
