A small candy

Chapter 14 Are you a little moved?

Jian Ling spent a full half hour trying to digest Ye Xianxin's words. If she hadn't heard it with her own ears, she wouldn't have believed that her mother could describe a blind date in such a refreshing and refined way.

She doesn't want to go on a blind date, no matter what.

"I didn't ask you to be with your Uncle Chen's son right now." Ye Xianxin saw that her pout was so high that it looked like she could hang a bottle of oil on her lips. She was a little amused and embarrassed. "It's mainly for your health. I made an appointment for you with his clinic. You can go and see him. It's difficult to get an appointment with a specialist. I tried several times before I succeeded. I was worried that it would be awkward for you to see him privately. It would be easier to accept if you have a reason to see a doctor."

Jian Ling's face was full of resistance, and she refused to budge: "I don't want it."

She wanted to tell him right then and there that she had someone she liked, so he wouldn't have to arrange a messy blind date for her. But before she could say anything, she thought about how she and Cheng Zhixu hadn't even started dating yet, and he had just shown a little concern for her, and even that concern might be because he was Ye Guizhou's friend. She couldn't bring herself to say it.

The mother and daughter were in a stalemate for a short while before Jian Zumao came back from get off work. He was followed by a man in formal attire, Ye Guizhou, who had come to eat for free.

Ye Xianxin stopped talking at this point, stood up and asked the two to wash their hands and sit down.

Auntie brought the dishes from the kitchen to the dining table, and specifically explained that the soup was for Jian Ling and had nourishing properties, so she told her not to forget to drink an extra bowl.

Ye Guizhou was a little curious. While eating, he turned his head and asked his sister: "What happened to Jian Ling?"

"Look at her complexion, and then look at her body that can be blown away by a gust of wind." Ye Xianxin raised her chopsticks and pointed at Jian Ling who was sitting opposite her, "How can she not take some supplements?" She was too embarrassed to mention her irregular menstrual period.

Ye Guizhou shifted his gaze and stared at Jian Ling for a moment. She had removed her makeup before dinner, revealing a bare face. The dark circles under her eyes were particularly noticeable. Furthermore, the pimple on her chin, no longer concealed by concealer, was now tinged with red.

"What are you looking at? Haven't you seen a peerless fairy who just descended to the mortal world?" Jian Ling glared back fiercely, and said with a warning, "I advise you not to talk nonsense."

Ye Guizhou ignored her threat, raised his eyebrows and told the truth: "Your mother is right, you do look more haggard than before, and you have lost a lot of weight. Have you not been eating well recently?"

Jian Ling was so angry that she lost her appetite.

What fairies care about most is their face! Ye Guizhou actually used the word "haggard" to describe her, which she absolutely could not tolerate.

"As a boss, how can you understand the hardship we workers endure?" Jian Ling took a sip of the nourishing soup. The soup had medicinal herbs in it, so it wasn't as bad as she'd imagined. She took another sip, shook her head, and sighed, "Even if I tell you, you still can't understand."

Ye Guizhou was so amused that he threw his head back and laughed: "Are you a worker?"

"I've been working for over a month, okay?" Jian Ling heard his mockery and couldn't help but secretly rolled her eyes. "I got a salary of 5,000 yuan this month!"

Ye Guizhou couldn't stop laughing, his shoulders shaking, and he almost couldn't hold the chopsticks. After a while, he stopped laughing and gave her a thumbs up: "Okay, you are amazing."

Jian Ling knew what he was laughing at. Five thousand yuan was nothing to a big boss like him. Besides, her monthly allowance was more than that. But he didn't understand. This was earned through her own labor, and she was extremely proud just thinking about it.

Jian Zumao spoke at this time, his tone full of concern and love: "Lingling, your health is important. Don't make yourself so hard. Mom and Dad will be distressed."

Ye Xianxin was waiting for him to say this. After hearing this, she put down her chopsticks and said earnestly, "I was just trying to get her to take some time to see a doctor and take care of her body."

"What do you mean by seeing a doctor?" Jian Ling frowned and muttered, "It's obviously a blind date, okay?"

Jian Zumao exchanged glances with his wife. He was obviously aware of the matter and remained silent for a moment. Ye Guizhou didn't understand the truth and looked at Jian Ling in confusion: "What blind date?"

Jian Ling: "Uncle Chen's son, I don't even know what he looks like, but your dear sister wants me to date him. Please help me talk to him."

Ye Guizhou's dear sister smiled and said, "Don't spread rumors. Did I say that I wanted you to have a relationship? A blind date is just about making friends. If you two like each other, we, as elders, will be happy. If you really don't like him, can I force you to have a relationship with someone?"

After listening for a while, Ye Guizhou finally understood.

Jian Ling looked at her uncle expectantly, thinking that he, who was in a free love relationship and was about to go from school uniform to wedding dress, would definitely not like blind dates.

However, she was wrong. Ye Guizhou slowly smiled and said, "Blind date is good. You are not young anymore. It's time to find a boyfriend."

Now that she has a boyfriend, he can pack up the burden of "taking care of Jian Ling" and throw it to her boyfriend.

Jian Ling was stunned.

Not satisfied with this, Ye Guizhou nodded his head under her vacant gaze in affirmation, "Your Uncle Chen's ancestors were a family of scholars with a strict family tradition. Your Uncle Chen's father began practicing medicine. Judging from the few younger members of the Chen family I've met, they all have gentle and refined personalities, not to mention the grandson who was raised by Mr. Chen since childhood. I heard that he's also very handsome, which suits your taste, young lady."

"Yes! I've seen him, he's incredibly handsome." Ye Xianxin was very satisfied with her brother's words. She straightened her back and looked at Jian Ling with a smile on her face. "How is it? Lingling, are you a little moved?"

Still moved? Jian Ling wanted to die.

What's going on? Her eyes swept over the faces of her parents and uncle one by one. The combined aura of the three of them was too strong. She was being isolated.

Jian Ling felt that she was really miserable.

Not only can you not get the person you like, but you also have to deal with so many obstacles.

Sure enough, God is fair. He gave her a good family background and outstanding beauty, but her love life was destined not to be so smooth. Jian Ling thought so.

-

A week later, Jian Ling still hadn't had her period. Furthermore, after the stubborn pimple on her chin cleared up, another one appeared next to it before the scar had even disappeared.

Last night, Jane Ling felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen and thought her period was finally coming. She excitedly put on a sanitary napkin, but after a night and half a morning, there was nothing on the sanitary napkin.

Jian Ling's heart sank to the bottom of the pit, and she leaned back in her chair and sighed deeply. Beside her, Dai Wangchu took a sip of black coffee and continued typing away at his computer screen, a pile of documents beside him. She yawned, noticing Jian Ling's dejected look from the corner of her eye, and encouraged her, "Hold on a little longer, you'll be free in a few days."

Jian Ling nodded, grabbed the edge of the table with both hands, and pulled forward, causing the chair to slide forward. She twisted her neck and continued with her unfinished work.

The vibration of her phone interrupted her hard-won enthusiasm. She closed her eyes, picked up the phone and glanced at it. Guessing the purpose of Ms. Ye Xianxin's call, Jian Ling slumped over the table.

She hesitated for a long time, but finally answered the call.

"Lingling, my dear daughter, don't forget to go to the hospital to see a doctor after get off work. I asked the driver to wait for you at the door of your company." Ye Xianxin's gentle and smiling voice came from the receiver.

Before today, Jian Ling still had some resistance to blind dates, but after thinking about her current physical condition and realizing she really needed to go to the hospital, she didn't refuse: "Let me tell you first, I really am going to see a doctor."

Ye Xian was surprised and delighted, "Yes, Mom meant for you to take care of your body. The rest depends on your personal wishes!"

Jian Ling: “…”

After work, Jian Ling did not stay to work overtime. She said goodbye to Dai Wangchu, picked up her bag and left.

Fortunately, the driver didn't park the car at the main entrance of the company. If someone saw it, it would be difficult to explain. After leaving the gate, Jian Ling received a call from the driver, asking her to walk a little to the left.

Jian Ling found her car, opened the door, and got in. Before she could even tell him the address, the driver looked in the rearview mirror and said, "My wife asked me to take you to the First Hospital."

"I know."

Jian Ling released all her strength and leaned lazily against the back of the chair. Thinking about going to see a doctor, she took off her makeup in the car so as not to affect her medical treatment.

She looked at herself in the small mirror that came with the blush palette. In the past, when she looked in the mirror, she would be amazed by her own beauty and indulge herself in it, but now she really didn't want to look at it any more.

If she goes to meet a blind date in this state, it would be strange if he would like her!

The car drove into the hospital gate and stopped in the parking space on the main road outside the outpatient department. The driver turned and asked Jian Ling, "Do you need me to accompany you?"

"No need, I can go by myself." Jian Ling took out a fisherman's hat from her bag and put it on. She pushed the brim down and got out of the car.

As she walked into the outpatient department hall, Jian Ling smelled a pungent smell of disinfectant. She wrinkled her nose and took out her ID card to get a number at the self-service counter.

Ye Xianxin had made an appointment for her online in advance. She stared at the words on the list and noticed the name of Uncle Chen's son, Chen Xulin.

Shifting her gaze downwards, she saw that the appointment time was between four and five in the afternoon. Jian Ling's eyes flickered, and she raised her wrist to check the time.

The traffic on the way here was during the evening rush hour and it was stuck in traffic for a long time. It was already past the appointment time. Jian Ling was not sure if Dr. Chen was still there.

She unconsciously quickened her pace, walked through the crowd in the hall to the elevator, raised her head and looked at the map on the wall next to the elevator. It was on the fifth floor.

The hospital's elevator was always slow. Jian Ling stamped her feet. After a few minutes, the elevator door finally opened in front of her. She breathed a sigh of relief and walked in.

Jian Ling looked at the appointment number again and prayed silently in her heart that she would not miss it. It was not because she was interested in the blind date, but because she was really here to see a doctor seriously.

Patients certainly don't want to miss out on seeing their doctor.

Jian Ling put her hands in her pockets. She heard a "ding" sound and looked up. It was the fifth floor. She walked out of the elevator, walked through a long corridor, and stopped in front of a clinic.

She glanced around and found that there was no other patient waiting in the corridor except her.

Jian Ling thought that she didn't need to scan the barcode of her appointment number under the scanner anymore. She took a deep breath, took her hand out of her pocket, and knocked on the door.

"Enter."

Jian Ling grasped the door handle and pushed it down, pushing open the door of the clinic.

Two doctors, one standing and one sitting inside, both wearing white coats and badges pinned to their chests, looked at Jian Ling at the door. The one standing wore thin-rimmed glasses and raised his eyebrows. "We're off duty. What can I do for you?"

The man sitting there realized the person he was waiting for had arrived. He coughed and pushed aside the colleague who was blocking most of his view. "It's my patient. You go downstairs to eat first. I'll be there in a while..." He had wanted to say he would be there in a while, but he wasn't sure how long it would take, so he changed his words and said, "Don't worry about me."

Jiang Shaoyan glanced at his watch uncertainly: "It's been half an hour since I got off work, you..."

Seeing Jian Ling standing awkwardly at the door, neither going forward nor backward, Chen Xulin pushed Jiang Shaoyan and told him to be more self-conscious and shut up.

Jiang Shaoyan only then realized that the atmosphere was not right. He looked at Jian Ling, then at his good friend, and decided to find another opportunity to ask.

He put on a smile and said to Jian Ling, "Since Doctor Chen has spoken, please come in."

"Thank you." Jian Ling nodded at him with a look of apology in her eyes. She turned to Chen Xulin and said, "Sorry to have kept you waiting. There was a traffic jam on the road."

Chen Xulin smiled and said, "I understand."

After Jiang Shaoyan left and closed the door of the clinic, Chen Xulin straightened his chair, clicked the mouse a few times, and opened Jian Ling's file.

Jian Ling sat upright, looking at the man who was half an arm's length away from her.

Apart from anything else, at least Ms. Ye Xianxin did not lie to her. Dr. Chen is indeed young and handsome!
　The doctor is so handsome, gentle, considerate, caring, and available to see patients at any time.
　　Cheng Zhixu: What are you talking about???
