The doctor is infatuated, the cold male god has a pig-like teammate next door

  He paused for a moment and looked towards Yan Mu Yao's direction.

  After a moment of silence, he instructed him, "Your elder brother has been busy with company business lately, and it's likely that he won't have time to take care of my birthday banquet. Why don't you take over the things he hasn't finished yet? Also, let you handle Shang Xiao Yu and Xi Gu's engagement together?"

  It seems that Yan Mu Yao still has the upper hand in this matter.

  Ke Nian Jin's tone was unmistakable, leaving no room for even a hint of refusal.

  Shang Shang quickly grasped the meaning of Jin Sheng's words, his heart felt like it was being tightly strangled, and for a moment he couldn't breathe. After that, his face turned pale as paper.

  Firstly, Yan Jinsheng had never given up on his intention of marrying her and Yan Xiguo.

  Secondly, Yan Jinsheng's words were subtly probing.

  Actually, from the moment he appeared at S City Train Station, Shang Shang had a hunch that his fondness for Yan Mu Yao was probably exposed.

  It was only when she entered the ward that Yan Jinsheng's face, which was as gentle and puzzled as before, made her relax her guard, mistakenly thinking that the matter of going to S city had been turned over and would not be pursued again.

  At this moment, he was obviously trying to probe Yan Mu Yao.

  He agreed to arrange her engagement with Nian Xi, and everything was joyful. If he refused, it would inevitably raise suspicions again.

  Shang Shang felt that Yan Jinsheng didn't need to do this at all.

  He may not even know that these days, Yan Mu Yao has rejected her so thoroughly. The two people's relationship has never been close and is now even more distant. Even after the operation, she and Yan Mu Yao didn't have a chance to meet again.

  She thought this matter would be agreed upon by Yan Mu Yao with a single word.

  But unexpectedly, there was a moment of silence in the ward, and Shen Tinghe interrupted, "Mu Yao's work is all about saving lives, and most of the time, they can't spare time to prepare for your birthday party. Either hand this matter over to me, along with the engagement between Shang Fei and Xi Gu, I guarantee it will be done beautifully."

  Last year his parents didn't come back.

  This time, it was he and Shang Shang, the two parties involved, who remained silent without saying a word.

  Obviously uninterested in this marriage, but due to Jin Sheng's poor health this year, he couldn't withstand even the slightest stimulation at this time. Therefore, Nian Xi Gu could only pretend to have let go of Song Ya Li in front of him and put on a cooperative attitude.

  Merchants are also like this.

  As expected, Yan Jinsheng inevitably rejected Shen Tinghe's proposal, "Which of your things isn't a three-minute passion? If I leave things to you, I'm afraid that before my longevity banquet, I'll probably have to stay in the hospital again."

  "Old man!" Shen Tinghe still tried to persuade him, shaking his arm and pleading, "At least let me handle the engagement, Mu Yao is a big man, how can he understand a girl's pursuit of romance?"

  She's been using this trick repeatedly with great success.

  Shen Ting heard Heliao decide for herself and refused to let go, in the end it was Yan Jinchen who compromised.

  "So, you think about it, your birthday is just around the corner, and I've already got my hands full with preparations for your birthday banquet. And let's not forget that most of the guests you've invited are big shots from the political and business worlds. If we were to add a wedding engagement on top of that, wouldn't it be a laughing stock if we weren't fully prepared or didn't treat our guests properly? Do you want our family to become the joke of C City's high society for the next year?"

  Pausing for a moment, gritting his teeth, "If it doesn't work out, you can ask the two parties involved if they'd rather have a man with a perennially cold face handle their engagement ceremony or someone like me who's meticulous and full of romantic cells as a proper elder?"

  The spearhead successfully pointed towards Nishi-Kōji and Shōmei direction.

  The merchant hung his head in shame and seriously played with his fingers, refusing to express his opinion on the matter.

  The other half is not her choice, who hosted the engagement ceremony, actually doesn't matter.

  Seeing this, Mr. Nian Xiguan spoke up, "Grandfather..."

  "What do you think, merchant?"

  Unfortunately, before Jin Sheng could finish his sentence, his gaze fell on Shang Shang's body, and indeed he was looking for her opinion.

  This topic is somewhat cruel for businessmen.

  After a while, she raised her head again, her neck stiff and unnatural, still not daring to meet Jin Sheng's gaze directly. She took a deep breath, and only then did her heart feel unblocked.

  He finally spoke up, "I..."

  "I've been quite free at the hospital these past two days, I'll take care of these two things." Yan Mu Yao suddenly spoke up, his tone indifferent. As he stood up, his tall figure blocked some of the light in front of Shang Shang's eyes. After giving some simple instructions, "You still have some test results that haven't come out, at the earliest you can be discharged this afternoon, I have a meeting later, I'll leave first."

  As soon as his voice fell, his cold back shadow had disappeared at the door of the ward.

  The ward then fell into silence.

  He indeed agreed...

  The merchant looked somewhat at a loss and lowered his head again, swallowing the unspoken words, leaving only a bitter taste in his mouth.

  Her expression, the sorrow in her body all surged forth, Yan Xi Gu was afraid that if she continued down this path she would uncontrollably burst into tears, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Subconsciously pulling her up to stand, "I suddenly thought of something I need to discuss with Shang Shang, let's go outside."

  ——————

  After Shang was taken away, only Yan Jin and Shen Tinghe were left in the ward.

  Not long ago, Yan Mu Yao had just arrived, and Shang Shang came in from outside, saying it was a coincidence that was unacceptable, after all, Yan Jin Cheng had been hospitalized for so many days, and Yan Mu Yao had never come before.

  If it's really intentional, it can't help but make people feel heartbroken.

  But just now...

  Shen Tinghe thought of Yan Mu being forced to agree, his heart ached, "Yan Jinsheng, are you satisfied with this now?"

  As soon as she finished her questioning sentence, tears fell uncontrollably.

  Nian Jinsheng raised his hand and wiped it away for her, furrowing his brow but saying nothing.

  "I also understand that the things back then, unless they can be hidden from Shen for a lifetime, otherwise the pain afterwards will be unbearable for both of them...” Shen Tinghua sobbed, stuttering and intermittent, with a sorrowful expression. "But at that time, her mother's heart... it was clearly my fault, why did Mu Yao have to bear all this?"

  "Mu Yao has been excellent since he was a child, and I've never had to worry about him at all. But now, such a good kid is going to have to give up his own happiness because of me, his mother... and you're still making him take care of it himself..."

  In the end, Shen Tinghe was almost in tears.

  She looked so heartbroken that it fell into Ren Jin's eyes, and he sighed, as if suddenly aging, "Listen, He, this matter is not your fault. Even without what happened back then, Ren Mu Yao was destined to marry a woman he didn't love in this lifetime, settle down, and live a stable life."

  The atmosphere in the ward was oppressive.

  Outside, however, in the gap of the hospital room door that was not fully closed, a figure stood stiffly, covering its mouth to stifle a cry of surprise.

  Coffee shop under the hospital building.

  By the window seat, I randomly ordered some things to get rid of the waiter.

  Then, Xi Gu looked at the person sitting opposite him with a face as gray as death and frowned in disgust. "Fu Shangshang, what's the meaning of this funeral-like appearance you're showing me now? You can't handle my little uncle, so you've decided to cling to me?"

  "I'll also have to consider losing you." Shang Shang gave him a white eye, still looking unspirited, and teased him, "Right, anyway I'm destined to not get the one I want in my heart, might as well drag you down with me, even if we die, at least we won't be lonely having each other's backs."

  Upon hearing this, Xī Zǐ turned around with a self-satisfied expression of "I knew you had ill intentions", and said: "Fù Shāngshāng, from when you were small till now, apart from being good at playing tricks on me, do you have any other skills? At critical moments, you're completely useless, truly a pig-like teammate."

  Hiss——

  Why does this sound so harsh?

  He got angry all of a sudden.

  Unfortunately, just as he was about to get angry, Xī Zǐ Gù didn't give him the chance. "I knew from the start that you wouldn't be able to handle my little uncle. Don't blame me for not taking care of you later. I've already called Yǎ Lǐ over, she's a psychology major and won an award for her paper in her freshman year. Let's have her analyze it and we'll come up with a detailed battle plan to try and deal with him as soon as possible. After all, at this point, only someone of my little uncle's caliber would be able to stop Grandfather's crazy idea of me marrying you."

  "Wait..." Shang Shang subconsciously thought of the last time he and he colluded to deceive Yan Mu Yao, and later almost got torn apart by Yan Mu Yao.

  It suddenly occurred to him that he was still afraid of being tricked, "Xī Zǐ Gù, don't come up with any more battle plans for me, I've already let go, it's not mine, no matter how many clever tricks you play, they're all in vain."

  She did so much, yet it only pushed him further away.

  Just thinking about it makes me feel powerless...

  "Goodbye..."

  Nian Xi Gu continued to persuade, Shang Shang took a deep breath and made a pausing gesture, sparing his ears from further torment. He assured him, "I know you and Song Miss are well-matched, but don't worry, even if things don't work out with your uncle, I won't have any absurd thoughts about being together with you. We'll take it one step at a time, after all, we're just engaged, the worst-case scenario is that we put on an act, and later our marriages will be unrelated."

  Entangled with him for a lifetime.

  Just thinking about this scene makes all the merchants feel a chill run down their spines.

  "You... Yalai, over here." Nian Xigui was stimulated by her appearance and was about to counterattack when he caught sight of the person who had just entered the door. He beckoned them over and then gave Shang Shang a disdainful look. "Anyway, since you're already here, Fu Shangshang, take this opportunity to learn from others. If you can have half of Yalai's femininity, it won't be difficult to deal with even ten men, let alone one younger uncle!"
