Soft-centered strawberry cake

Chapter 113 The younger brother still has the sweetest tongue.
It wasn't dark outside yet. After a busy day, the daytime medical staff in the emergency room finally got off work.

After handing over their shift to the night shift crew, Tang Ying and her group headed towards the changing room.

"Putting aside the absurd things that happened today, Xiaolu's action of shielding you from the elements was really cool."

An older nurse took Tang Ying's arm, speaking with a smile.

"Teacher Li, now that you mention it, it's really true!"

Walking behind the group, Lu Xiao overheard the nurses in the department talking about him and Tang Ying, and he inexplicably felt nervous.

Tang Ying knew her colleague was joking with her, so she smiled back.

"You two shouldn't talk nonsense. That child is still innocent."

A child? Naive?
Lu Xiao was speechless. So Tang Ying only saw me as a child?

"Senior sister, who's the child? I'm already twenty-eight. At my age, everyone else is already having children."

Lu Xiao's words made everyone laugh. It's true, he's considered very young inside the hospital, but quite old outside.

Tang Ying turned around and smiled at Lu Xiao, "Alright, alright, you're not a child anymore, okay?"

“I’m your colleague now, so you should respect my position,” Lu Xiao said, stepping forward and putting his arm around Tang Ying’s shoulder in a friendly manner.

Tang Ying glanced at Lu Xiao's hand and gestured for Lu Xiao to take his hand away, "You have no manners."

Seeing that Lu Xiao and Tang Ying did indeed look like a good match, the young nurse next to her chuckled to herself, "These days, relationships between older women and younger men are all the rage. Dr. Lu is a whole universe better than that guy you went on a blind date with last time."

"Don't mention that person, today has been unlucky enough already!"

If you mention that man in front of Tang Ying, Tang Ying's expression will immediately change.

Lu Xiao was somewhat surprised, "You've been on blind dates? Did I hear that right?"

Tang Ying was completely speechless. "If anyone brings this up again, I'll cut ties with them!"

"Okay, okay... let's not talk about it anymore..."

If it weren't for the young lady in the department mentioning today that Tang Ying had been on a blind date, Lu Xiao wouldn't have known about Tang Ying's situation.

Fortunately, he has now come to find Tang Ying, hoping that through spending time together, Tang Ying will gradually understand his feelings.

Ming Group
It was also time to leave work, and while waiting for the elevator, Ming Wei chatted with Qi Fei while scrolling through her WeChat Moments.

In less than thirty seconds, Tang Ying's WeChat Moments appeared in her eyes. She knew that Tang Ying must have encountered some very strange people and things today.

She immediately switched to the WeChat chat interface and sent a WeChat message to Tang Ying.

"What's wrong? What made you laugh out loud?"

In the hospital's underground parking lot, Tang Ying had already changed her clothes and got into her car.

The ringing of her phone caught her attention, and she casually picked up the phone that was lying on the passenger seat and glanced at it.

"I'll tell you if you treat me to dinner. I'm off work now."

Tang Ying thought it would be a good idea to meet with Mingwei, complain about what happened today, and ask her about her and Pei Ming's situation these past two days.

"Okay, what do you want to eat? Send me your location and I'll come over now."

Mingwei readily agreed, as inviting Tang Ying to dinner was already a common occurrence for her.

Tang Ying opened her phone app and searched for restaurant rankings. Just as she sent the restaurants she wanted to eat at to Ming Weiyi, she heard someone knocking on her passenger window.

She turned her head and looked over; the person knocking on her car window was none other than Lu Xiao.

"What are you doing?" Tang Ying asked Lu Xiao through the open car window.

"Senior sister, I'm new here, can you take me to get something good to eat?"

Lu Xiao leaned over and placed his hands on the frame of the car window, looking like an obedient younger brother.

"What a coincidence, I just made plans with my best friend, and I'm going to meet her now." "What's so unfortunate about it? You didn't make plans with your boyfriend, and it's not like you can't bring me along when you're having dinner with your best friend."

"Take you with me?" Tang Ying hesitated a bit. What Lu Xiao said didn't seem like a bad idea.

Seeing Tang Ying hesitate, Lu Xiao nodded repeatedly, "Yes, it's so nice to have dinner with two beautiful ladies!"

"But, the pretty lady already has a husband."

"I know, I'm not interested in her, I just want to hang out with you."

Tang Ying unlocked the car, and Lu Xiao went with her to eat, which would also allow him to familiarize himself with the environment of Jiangcheng.

As night fell, the streetlights along the ring road resembled a string of pearls, and as far as the eye could see, the taillights of the vehicles were completely obscured.

"Du Lian, I'm going to the capital in a couple of days. If there's anything urgent that needs my attention, please arrange it as soon as possible."

Pei Ming sat in the back seat and looked at Du Lianping in the driver's seat, speaking calmly.

"Is there any cooperation over there?" Du Lian asked casually.

"No, Weiwei went on a business trip for a few days, and I accompanied her."

Whenever Ming Weiyi is mentioned, Pei Ming's tone always softens considerably.

Du Lian chuckled to himself, "So, the misunderstanding between you and Miss has been cleared up?"

"There was never any misunderstanding between us. It's you who's been hiding it pretty well."

Du Lian was puzzled, "What did I hide?"

"Didn't you take Qi Fei home for dinner? Weiwei and I both think you two are a good match."

Pei Ming had his own ulterior motives regarding Qi Fei and Du Lian. If Du Lian really got together with Qi Fei, he would naturally stay in Jiangcheng.

"There's been a misunderstanding. Anyway, there's nothing between Qi Fei and me." Du Lian knew he was innocent and had no feelings for Qi Fei.

Pei Ming nodded, looking like he didn't believe it anyway, "Okay, okay, it's a misunderstanding."

The two had finished their conversation. For Du Lian, there was no need to explain such things; explaining too much would just be a cover-up.

It was already completely dark, but the temperature was still muggy. Fortunately, Tang Ying chose a place to eat in a shopping mall.

Today, my best friend and I went to a Yunnan restaurant, and the aroma of wild mushroom hot pot filled the entire place.

Mingwei arrived first and sat by the window, where she could see the city's night view.

Less than ten minutes later, Tang Ying also walked into the store. To Ming Wei's surprise, Tang Ying actually brought her junior brother, Lu Xiao!
Seeing the two of them walking over together, Ming Weiyi's eyes were filled with gossip.

"You don't mind bringing a tagalong along, do you?" Tang Ying said, plopping down next to Ming Weiyi.

Mingwei quickly waved her hand, "I don't mind, I don't mind..."

Lu Xiao naturally sat down opposite Tang Ying and politely greeted Ming Weiyi, "Hello, sister."

"Your brother has such a sweet tongue. Order whatever you like." Mingwei was very friendly to Tang Ying's junior brother.

"What, Pei Ming's sweet talk isn't working?" Tang Ying asked deliberately, hoping to figure out the relationship between Ming Weiyi and Pei Ming.

"Sometimes it's sweet, sometimes it's cheap."

Tang Ying noticed that Ming Wei was acting normally when she talked about Pei Ming, so she continued to ask, "Did he explain things to you clearly? What exactly is going on between him and Xia Wanfeng?"

"That bastard, just to force me to admit my feelings for him, he and a real actress played me!"

Hearing Ming Weiyi's words, Tang Ying burst out laughing, "Hahaha...you two are really a perfect match, neither of you are easy to deal with!"

The two best friends were completely oblivious to the fact that there was someone else on the other end of the line, who was also enjoying the gossip about the older sister.
