Lu Yang and Ruan Mian came over. Lu Yang punched Wang Dali on the shoulder and asked with a smile: “Ji’er, what are you hiding from?”
The nurse and Shen Cheng looked up at him at the same time and then looked at Wang Dali in horror. They had just heard the name ‘Ji’er’, but they didn’t expect that he was calling Wang Dali.
Wang Dali turned around stiffly, and when he saw Lu Yang’s still bright face, he couldn’t help but feel a little sad. He once thought about this face day and night, but now he just wants to cry when he sees this face.
He turned his head slightly and looked at Ruan Mian. Ruan Mian winked at him mischievously, looked at Lu Yang, and then at him with a teasing expression.
Wang Dali wanted to cry even more, “…” I really don’t like him now. Who I like is actually you.
But I don’t dare to say it. It’s probably useless if I say it.
Wang Dali rubbed his forehead and suddenly felt that the relationship was a bit complicated, and he couldn’t bear it anymore.
The young nurse closed her shocked mouth, hurriedly said something to Wang Dali, and then quickly ran off with the medical records. She felt that she didn’t belong there any longer.
Shen Cheng finally recovered from the name ‘Ji’er’. He looked at Lu Yang and turned to Ruan Mian: “This is…”
“This is my fiancé, Lu Yang.” Ruan Mian smiled.
For the first time, he formally introduced Lu Yang as his fiancé. He couldn’t help but find it a bit novel, and his heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
Shen Cheng couldn’t help but glance at Lu Yang in surprise. He never thought that this powerful Alpha would be Ruan Mian’s fiancé.
He thought that with Ruan Mian’s gentle personality, his fiancé would be a mild-mannered and honest person. He never expected it to be an Alpha as strong and impressive as Lu Yang.
Lu Yang was obviously very satisfied with Ruan Mian’s introduction. His originally cold face softened. He smiled at Shen Cheng and reached out his hand, “Hello, I’m Lu Yang. We met last time.”
The last time Shen Cheng saw Lu Yang, he only felt that his aura was particularly oppressive. He seemed cold and unapproachable, so he couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. Now that he saw him suddenly smiling, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Shen Cheng extended his hand to shake Lu Yang’s and smiled lightly, “So you’re Xiao Mian’s fiancé. I’ve heard so much about you. I’m his classmate, my name is Shen Cheng.”
Wang Dali finally calmed down from the ‘Ji’er’ nickname and smiled at Lu Yang, saying, “Lu Yang, it’s good to finally see you. It’s been a long time. You’ve become even more outstanding.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ruan Mian glared at him and held Lu Yang’s hand as if to declare his sovereignty.
Wang Dali was on the verge of crying, “…” I’m just being polite. I really don’t really want to see Lu Yang, nor do I want to rob him from you. In fact, I want to rob you from him even more.
What he just said was the truth. Lu Yang is indeed outstanding now, but the more excellent Lu Yang is now, the more worried he becomes.
He couldn’t help but look up and scrutinize Lu Yang closely. After doing so, his feelings became mixed; he felt proud of his past judgment yet a bit bitter about having no chance compared to Lu Yang now.
Lu Yang’s eyebrows were deeper than before, and his facial features were even more defined. The unruly arrogance that once characterized him had not faded. Instead, it had perfectly merged into a sharp brilliance that naturally drew people’s attention to him.
The most charming thing about him was always his confidence. Although Wang Dali only regarded him as his love rival now, he had to admit that he was still excellent and better than before.
Lu Yang looked at Wang Dali and chuckled, his eyes passing over the name tag on his chest, “Ji’er, I didn’t expect that you also chose to become a doctor. Thank you for taking care of Mian Mian in these past few years.”
Shen Cheng was standing nearby. Hearing this title, the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but twitch again. He smiled awkwardly and said to Lu Yang: “So you all know each other. By the way, how is your little rabbit doing now?”
When Lu Yang heard what he said, he glanced at Ruan Mian with a half-smile.
“Pretty good, he ate a whole plate of carrots at noon. Lately, he’s been a bit more affectionate, even using his little paws to cling to me when we’re outside.”
The tips of Ruan Mian’s ears felt hot, and he wanted to pull his hand back, but after he moved slightly, Lu Yang tightened his grip and gently scratched the palm of his hand to prevent him from leaving.
Wang Dali silently watched the little movements of the two of them, his heart bleeding. He knew who the lop-eared rabbit Shen Cheng saw that day without asking.
He clutched his chest, unable to help thinking that if this continued, he might really need a shot of adrenaline to replenish his energy.
Shen Cheng smiled, thinking that Lu Yang didn’t sound like he was talking about a rabbit but rather a person. However, he could see that Lu Yang was very fond of this little rabbit.
“That lop-eared rabbit is really cute. I would like to see it again if I have the chance.”
Ruan Mian didn’t want Shen Cheng to continue asking about the lop-eared rabbit, so he pointed at the lunch boxes in Lu Yang’s hand and said in a somewhat anxious tone: “We brought you lunch, eat it quickly, it will get cold later.”
When Shen Cheng saw the lunch box, he immediately cheered and said excitedly: “Xiao Mian, you’re so good! I almost fainted from hunger. I thought I could only eat instant noodles for lunch.”
Ruan Mian smiled, handed him the lunch box, and said to Lu Yang, “Don’t leave yet. Come in and I’ll help you change the dressing on your wound.”
“Is Mister Lu injured?” Shen Cheng asked.
“Mn, his hand is injured.” Ruan Mian replied while leading Lu Yang to the room.
Shen Cheng only then noticed the thick bandage wrapped around Lu Yang’s hand, indicating a serious injury. He couldn’t help but feel a pang of guilt and sighed inwardly, thinking that despite the injury, Lu Yang had still helped carry their lunch boxes for so long. He truly was a good person.
Wang Dali looked at the bandage on Lu Yang’s hand and was strangely silent. He felt that Lu Yang’s injury was different from what Shen Cheng thought.
Shen Cheng felt guilty and grateful and took the initiative to walk in front and open the door for everyone. After entering the room, he put down the lunch box in his hand, turned around, and hurriedly helped Ruan Mian find all the tools needed for treating wounds.
He took the disinfectant and put it on the table and asked, “Do you need anesthesia and re-suturing?”
“No need.” Ruan Mian said as he removed the layer after layer of bandages on Lu Yang’s hand, revealing the wound inside.
Shen Cheng looked at the wound on Lu Yang’s hand and suddenly fell into silence: “…”
He blinked his eyes in disbelief and then blinked again. The wound on Lu Yang’s hand had not changed; it was still the small scratch.
Wang Dali stood beside him with an expression that said he had seen through everything.
He knew it would be like this!
Ruan Mian raised his head, smiled, and said to Shen Cheng, “Brother Shen, hurry up and eat. I can handle it myself.”
Shen Cheng: “…Okay.” He really should go to eat, because there is nothing he can do to help if he stays here! Ruan Mian can really handle it by himself!
He walked slowly to the table, opened the lunch box, and took a few mouthfuls of rice. The food was still warm. He couldn’t help but smile with satisfaction, feeling like he was alive again.
Shen Cheng filled his stomach a little and couldn’t help but tap on Wang Dali, who was next to him, and lowered his voice and asked: “How do you know Xiao Mian’s fiancé? I remember that Xiao Mian’s fiancé hasn’t visited in the past few years. Have you known each other before?”
Wang Dali placed the food into his mouth and said in a calm voice: “We were in the same high school before. I chased Lu Yang, so I got to know them.”
Shen Cheng suddenly opened his mouth wide and didn’t close it for a long time. He looked at Wang Dali in surprise and asked, “You and Xiao Mian were love rivals before?”
Wang Dali didn’t want to answer this heartbreaking question, so he lowered his head and continued to eat vegetables.
Shen Cheng glanced at Lu Yang’s handsome face and thought it wasn’t surprising that Wang Dali liked him. He struggled to suppress his surprise and awkwardly smiled at Wang Dali, saying, “I didn’t expect you to be a supporter of AA relationships. Very trendy.”
Wang Dali didn’t explain that Lu Yang was still an Omega at that time and just said softly “Mn”.
Shen Cheng thought of the way Wang Dali and Ruan Mian got along in the past few years and couldn’t help but sigh, “You and Xiao Mian are really love rivals in the new era. If all love rivals could be like you, then the world would be much more harmonious.”
Wang Dali was heartbroken.
Shen Cheng couldn’t help but ask curiously: “Since you chased Lu Yang at the beginning, what happened next? Did he reject you and choose to be with Xiao Mian?”
Wang Dali put down his chopsticks, looked in the direction of Lu Yang and said, “When I chased him, I confessed once, and he hit me once, but I didn’t give up and chased him all the way to the army.”
Now that he thinks about it, he wants to beat himself up.
Shen Cheng was moved by his persistence and hurriedly asked: “What happened next?”
Wang Dali thought for a moment and briefly summarized his past pursuit, “Then his daily routine became eating, sleeping, and plucking chicken feathers.”
Shen Cheng was puzzled, “Where did the chicken feathers come from?”
Wang Dali recalled in his mind the time when his chicken feathers were plucked out, and he couldn’t help but feel even more heartbroken.
He patted Shen Cheng’s shoulder without tears and concluded: “Anyway, the final result is that I have a nickname of ‘Ji’er’.”
Shen Cheng: “…” Suddenly he felt a little sympathetic.
Under his sympathetic gaze, Wang Dali sighed softly, picked up his chopsticks, and continued eating.
Shen Cheng picked up his chopsticks and ate a few mouthfuls of rice. He was still a little curious about the relationship between the three of them and couldn’t help but look up at Lu Yang and Ruan Mian, not far away.
After Ruan Mian disinfected Lu Yang’s wound again, he bent down to change the dressing. Occasionally, he would gently blow on the wound. Lu Yang kept crying out in pain beside his ear, making it seem like he was seriously injured.
Shen Cheng frowned and looked at them for a while and couldn’t help but ask Wang Dali tactfully: “Is Mister Lu really a soldier?”
He now suspected that Lu Yang was a fake soldier and Ruan Mian might have been deceived.
Wang Dali lowered his head to eat his food. When he heard his words, he replied without raising his head: “He is not only a soldier, but also a Major General in Ancheng.”
Shen Cheng paused in his movements, choked and coughed several times, and exclaimed in a hoarse voice: “Major General?”
The Major General of Ancheng—isn’t that the general person in charge of Ancheng? The highest-ranking general in the army?
“Yes, that’s the major general we need to get approval from to intern here,” Wang Dali sighed helplessly, pouring him a glass of water and handing it to him.
Shen Cheng picked up the glass, drank some water, and finally calmed down, stopping his coughing.
He patted his chest, looked up at Lu Yang and Ruan Mian, and couldn’t help but become even more silent: “…”
He suddenly wanted to go home.
In Ancheng, the presence of such a major general feels dangerous!
