Head Nurse Yang Jing looked Li Xue'er up and down.

She looked like a celebrity.

She wore a thin, fitted white undershirt that showed off her slender waist and full bust, topped with a short beige jacket. Below, she had on blue jeans and white canvas shoes.

Lately, everyone had been saying Li Xue'er was the hospital's belle. It seemed that was no rumor—her looks and figure were among the very best Head Nurse Yang Jing had ever seen.

"Xue'er, there's a promising young man who wants to get to know you. Go have dinner with him tonight."

"I'll tell you a secret: he's the director's nephew. Whether you can stay at the hospital after your internship is just a word from him."

"The chance to rise to the top is right in front of you. Cherish it."

"Although you're pretty and have a great figure now, in a few years there'll be girls younger and prettier than you. So while you're still young, seize the opportunity!"

Li Xue'er listened seriously at first, but soon realized that Head Nurse Yang Jing was trying to set her up with another boyfriend.

"Head Nurse, I already have plans tonight. Sorry."

Li Xue'er declined without even thinking.

Ever since she started college, there had been countless boys around her wanting to pursue her. Her roommates never had to buy their own snacks, and some of them had even found boyfriends because of it.

Among them were plenty of boys with ability, talent, looks, and money.

Li Xue'er herself found it strange that none of them had moved her.

Whenever she thought about that question, a special figure appeared in her heart.

"Oh, you can reschedule whoever you've made plans with..."

The head nurse still wanted to persuade her.

Li Xue'er's phone rang.

"Sorry, I need to take this."

It was a call from Luo Feng. She immediately cut off the head nurse and answered it.

"Brother Feng... Mm-hmm, okay... Parking space B136 on the second basement level. Got it, I'll be right down."

After ending the call, Li Xue'er looked apologetically at the head nurse. "The person I'm meeting has already arrived, so I'll be leaving first."

Head Nurse Yang Jing narrowed her eyes as she watched Li Xue'er walk away.

"What an ignorant young girl. Looks like she needs a proper lesson about society."

Li Xue'er took the elevator down to the second basement level. The moment the elevator doors opened, a tall, handsome man stood outside.

"Li Xue'er!"

"Hi, my name is Wang Yang. It's nice to meet you."

"I was just about to head upstairs. Did Head Nurse Yang Jing tell you? About having dinner together tonight?"

Wang Yang was handsome, around six foot one, with a strong, well-proportioned build, broad shoulders, and long legs. He looked like a walking clothes hanger.

He smiled brilliantly, waiting expectantly for an affirmative answer.

The head nurse had not yet told him that the invitation had failed.

Li Xue'er was momentarily dazzled by the man's bright smile. She politely said, "Sorry, I already have plans tonight. I'm in a bit of a hurry, so I'll be going."

With that, she slipped past him and walked away quickly without the slightest hesitation.

"Hey, if today doesn't work, we can make plans for tomorrow!"

Wang Yang hurriedly called after her.

Li Xue'er did not respond because she had seen Luo Feng.

Luo Feng stood beside his car, with a Ferrari sports car parked next to it.

He had just seen Wang Yang get out of that car and head for the elevator.

He had not expected Wang Yang to know Li Xue'er.

He waved at Li Xue'er.

"Brother Feng!"

Like a little deer, Li Xue'er ran toward Luo Feng, only stopping when she was still two meters away from him.

"You're already a great beauty. Watch your image."

Luo Feng smiled. After spending the day thoroughly enjoying the company of two goddess-level women, looking at Li Xue'er now gave him a different kind of feeling.

When Li Xue'er had run over just now, the bouncing fullness beneath her clothes had made him lose focus for a moment.

She was well-endowed.

Her looks were even better.

"Hehe, I'm Brother Feng's little sister. I don't care about my image in front of my brother."

Li Xue'er grinned and casually linked her arm through Luo Feng's.

Hm?

Luo Feng felt a little awkward.

They had never been this intimate before.

But he did not push Li Xue'er away, instead pretending to act naturally.

Li Xue'er had secretly been watching Luo Feng's reaction as well. Seeing that he looked normal and showed no particular response, she relaxed.

She had wanted to do this for a long time, but her cousin had always been by Brother Feng's side before.

She had only wanted to test the waters just now.

It seemed Brother Feng did not dislike her acting this way. Then she could keep doing it in the future!

Or perhaps slowly go a little further...

"Brother Feng, did you buy a car?"

Li Xue'er saw Luo Feng tap his phone. The lights on the M9 behind him lit up, and then its door handles extended automatically.

"Yeah, I just bought it today. Come on, get in."

Luo Feng and Li Xue'er got into the car. Wang Yang also walked over and opened the door of his Ferrari.

He waved at Li Xue'er, then looked at Luo Feng.

"Man, I'm Wang Yang. Let's hang out sometime."

Luo Feng smiled in reply. "I'm Luo Feng. We'll be going now."

The car drove out of the parking space.

Wang Yang watched the M9 grow farther and farther away, then shook his head regretfully.

"He's probably her brother or something. He's a bit older, and they don't look like a couple. Not a big problem!"

He lifted his spirits.

Just then, a message came in. The head nurse told him that Li Xue'er was unavailable tonight and that they would have to arrange another day.

Wang Yang replied politely, "Thank you, Sister Yang. Whenever Xue'er is free, I'll be available."

He put away his phone, got into the Ferrari, and stepped on the gas. Amid the roaring engine, he drove out of the parking space.

Inside Luo Feng's car.

As they drove out of the parking garage, Li Xue'er said to Luo Feng, "Brother Feng, that person was someone I met for the first time today."

Wang Yang had greeted her just now, and she was afraid Luo Feng might misunderstand.

"Tall, handsome, and rich—the classic tall, rich, handsome guy. He'd probably be one of the top campus heartthrobs at your school."

Luo Feng smiled.

Li Xue'er had excellent looks and a good personality. It was perfectly normal for outstanding men to pursue her.

He even viewed Wang Yang with a hint of a guardian's mindset. At least judging by his appearance, he was quite impressive, and anyone who drove a Ferrari must have decent financial means.

Seeing that Luo Feng did not care, Li Xue'er secretly let out a breath of relief, though she also felt a little disappointed.

"I didn't pay attention. I can't even remember what the boys at school used to look like."

The car drove out of the parking garage.

"Let's find a restaurant," Luo Feng said.

Li Xue'er shook her head and said expectantly, "Brother Feng, let's go back to your place and I'll cook. I specifically learned two dishes yesterday, just so you could try them."

"Sure."

Luo Feng felt a little emotional. Good girls like Li X'er were becoming rarer and rarer.

Thinking that such a good girl would one day get married and cook for another man made his heart feel a little sour.

"Whoever marries Xue'er in the future will definitely be very happy."

Li Xue'er smiled happily at that. "Then I won't get married. I'll just cook for Brother Feng."

Luo Feng shook his head. Li Xue'er still seemed so innocent. How could she not get married and cook for her brother every day?

"Brother Feng, why did you and my cousin separate?" Li Xue'er asked.

"Money issues." Luo Feng did not want to say more.

Li Xue'er nodded thoughtfully, then looked at the car she was riding in. She felt puzzled; this car probably was not cheap, was it?

"You've been interning at the hospital for over half a year. Has it been tiring?" Luo Feng changed the subject and asked about Li Xue'er with concern.

"Pretty tiring. It's hard not to work overtime. The hospital is short on nurses, and when emergencies happen, pulling all-nighters is completely normal."

"Are you planning to stay at this hospital after graduation?"

"I might not be able to stay. This is a top-tier public hospital with a government-affiliated position, so the competition is pretty fierce."

Li Xue'er shook her head, still somewhat worried about the future.

As for what the head nurse had said today, she had not considered it for even a second.

Although a stable government position was considered the ultimate goal, she did not want to cling to power, much less trade on her beauty.

"Government positions, public institution positions, and state-owned enterprise jobs are the most sought-after these days. Never mind whether they pay well—they really are stable."

Luo Feng nodded. Everyone feared a midlife crisis these days, and a stable job was extremely important to many people.

Salary was secondary.

It was like how some people finished in a few seconds, while others could last more than an hour.

Surely no one would envy a man who lasted only seconds.

Bzzzz...

The phone in Li Xue'er's handbag vibrated. A call was coming in.

It was the head nurse. Li Xue'er answered.

"Xue'er, sorry, but a colleague has something going on at home and needs to leave. We're short-handed for the night shift..."
