This miracle doctor just wants to be fired!
Chapter 221 You were the one who confessed to me first, weren't you?
Zhou Cheng's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly focused his attention, pressing his fingertips tightly against her wrist.
I felt it over and over again, my heart pounding in my throat, and even my breathing slowed down unconsciously.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
The heartbeat slowed down and became more stable, no longer the rapid, almost piercing feeling it had before.
The rhythm gradually became regular, and the intensity slowly returned to normal.
"It's too slow! It's really too slow!"
Zhou Cheng's voice was filled with undisguised surprise, and his tone trembled slightly.
He couldn't believe it, and touched it several more times to confirm the steady and regular heartbeat before he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.
"It's a success, Lin Wei! It's a success!"
Lin Wei slowly opened her eyes. The fatigue in her eyes was still obvious, but the pain from before was less.
She breathed softly, her voice still weak, and smiled as she said, "Yes, I feel much better now. My heart isn't racing anymore, and my chest doesn't feel tight."
Zhou Cheng did not get up, but remained squatting beside her, his fingertips never leaving her wrist.
I felt her pulse again and again, making sure her heart rate remained within the normal range and did not speed up again, before I could finally relax a little.
He stayed quietly by her side.
The living room returned to silence.
The only sounds were the two people's even breathing and Xiaobai's occasional soft meows, which broke the silence.
Only after confirming that Lin Wei's heart rate had completely stabilized and her complexion had gradually regained some color did Zhou Cheng slowly relax, subconsciously raising his head and looking at Lin Wei.
He then realized that the distance between the two of them was ridiculously close.
He crouched down next to the sofa, almost touching her body.
You could even smell the faint scent of her shower gel, mixed with her own gentle aura, lingering around your nose and impossible to shake off.
Zhou Cheng's gaze inadvertently fell on Lin Wei's white loungewear.
The loose fabric outlined her graceful figure, and the neckline was slightly open, revealing a small patch of her fair neck with skin as delicate as jade.
He had been so nervous that he had only focused on Lin Wei's condition and had never looked at her so closely before.
Only now, when they calm down, do they realize that this close interaction carries an indescribable ambiguity that is quietly spreading between them.
Zhou Cheng's heart skipped a beat, and he wanted to step back and create some distance.
But seeing Lin Wei's still weak appearance, he couldn't bear to get up and could only stiffly maintain the original posture.
Zhou Cheng's gaze darted away, no longer daring to look directly into her eyes, and a faint blush crept onto his face.
Lin Wei seemed to sense the ambiguous atmosphere as well, and she shifted her body slightly, her long eyelashes trembling gently.
At that moment, the air in the living room seemed to become thick and sticky.
Just then, Lin Wei's voice suddenly rang out.
"Zhou Cheng, do you...do you have a girlfriend?"
Zhou Cheng shook his head. He and Lin Wei had been living together for three months. If he had a girlfriend, Lin Wei would definitely know. And if he had a girlfriend, how could he possibly let him live with Lin Wei?
Zhou Cheng just shook his head when Lin Wei suddenly asked, "Then do you mind if you have a girlfriend now?"
Zhou Cheng was stunned. Looking at Lin Wei, who was so close to him, his mind suddenly went blank.
He opened his mouth, but no sound came out. His eyes were filled with disbelief, and his fingers tightened unconsciously, accidentally touching Lin Wei's wrist.
The two of them stiffened slightly at the same time.
Seeing that Zhou Cheng didn't speak, Lin Wei pouted, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes. She quickly lowered her head and said softly, "Forget it, pretend I didn't say anything."
These words instantly snapped Zhou Cheng out of his daze.
He snapped out of his daze and quickly said, "You just said... I'll have another girlfriend? You mean...?"
Lin Wei raised her head, a sly and expectant look on her face. A faint smile played on her lips as she softly repeated, "Yes, that's what I mean. I'm asking you, are you unwilling?"
Looking at Lin Wei in front of him, Zhou Cheng's heartbeat instantly surged to its peak. It felt like a deer was pounding wildly in his chest, and even his throat became dry.
Why do I suddenly feel a bit thirsty?
His gaze fell on Lin Wei's face.
Her long eyelashes resembled two small fans, and her eyes sparkled with tiny lights. Although her complexion was still somewhat pale, she was still so beautiful that it was impossible to look away!
Lin Wei was a universally acknowledged goddess at their university, and the subject of daily conversation among the boys in the dormitories.
She is not only outstanding in appearance, but also excels in her studies, and is currently pursuing a doctorate.
Back in school, the two didn't actually interact much.
However, Zhou Cheng never expected that he would be able to live with her for three months.
Now, I never expected that she would take the initiative to confess her feelings to me.
He couldn't help but look at Lin Wei's figure again. Her loose home clothes couldn't hide her beautiful curves. She was curvaceous, and even when she was just sitting, you could see the superior proportions of her long legs.
Such an outstanding and beautiful girl actually confessed her feelings to me?!
Looking back, it seems that Lin Wei's search for a place to live and her subsequent cohabitation with him were all deliberate.
Then, the system panel showed that she had an extremely high level of affection for him!
Zhou Cheng paused slightly, then coughed softly: "To be honest, have you liked me for a long time?"
Lin Wei hadn't expected him to say that, and her eyes instantly filled with laughter. Her long eyelashes curved into crescent moons, and even her voice became a little lighter: "Guess?"
Zhou Cheng's heart softened at her "Guess" question, and most of his previous tension and helplessness dissipated.
He deliberately dragged out his words, with a hint of probing: "I bet you've liked me for a long time, since college?"
After he finished speaking, he stared intently into Lin Wei's eyes, afraid of missing any expression on her face.
Lin Wei gently turned her head, her long eyelashes trembling again, and a faint blush rising to the tips of her ears. She still couldn't help but steal a glance at him, her smile impossible to hide: "It's not that early."
Her voice was soft, completely different from the aloof and intellectual female PhD that everyone usually saw.
Do you remember that one evening in college when you taught me how to play basketball?
"I taught for a long time, and I taught very carefully."
"But I've never learned it."
Zhou Cheng was taken aback; he had absolutely no recollection of this incident.
At that time, he was somewhat introverted and not very sensitive to the people and things around him.
Unexpectedly, she remembered such a trivial matter for so long.
"Later, didn't you write me a love letter?" Lin Wei smiled again as she thought of this.
Zhou Cheng paused slightly.
The love letter that time wasn't written by him, but by his roommate Han Kang.
However, the love letter accidentally fell into his schoolbag, and later, somehow, the love letter was found in his bag, and the whole class knew about it.
Zhou Cheng thought for a moment, then decided against it and decided not to explain.
Perhaps this is just a beautiful misunderstanding?
Lin Wei smiled and continued, "According to this logic, in chronological order, you should have confessed to me first, right?"
Zhou Cheng was stunned. Could this really be done?
