You're dumping me, huh? Fine, then I'll just pick up the school beauty and make her my wif

"yes."

Jiang Che smiled at Uncle Liu, "Uncle, didn't I just tell you? My sister works as a doctor here, and I'm here to bring her food."

Bai Yuning is my older sister.

Upon hearing Jiang Che's words, Uncle Liu suddenly remembered what had happened, slapped his forehead, and realized what was going on.

"Oh dear, look at my brain."

He glanced at Jiang Che, then at Bai Yuning, and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, "What a small world."

Bai Yuning couldn't help but glance back and forth between Jiang Che and Uncle Liu several times, "Wait, how did you two meet?"

She knew all too well what kind of influence Mr. Liu held.

To put it bluntly, this is a man whose mere presence can shake the entire city of Lincheng.

How did my silly younger brother get involved with such a big shot?

"I ran into him while jogging downstairs in my apartment complex this morning."

Jiang Che didn't think anything of it and told the truth: "The uncle saw that my running posture was wrong and kindly gave me a few pointers. We started chatting after a while."

After saying that, he glanced at Uncle Liu and added with a smile, "Uncle is a very nice person, especially kind-hearted."

Bai Yuning couldn't help but twitch her lips after hearing this.

Kind-hearted?

How can these three words be associated with Mr. Liu?

Now that he's older and retired, his temperament has become much more restrained.

In the past, he was known for his terrible temper.

"It really is fate."

Uncle Liu waved his hand with a smile, looking at Jiang Che with increasing approval. "This young man has good comprehension and is a promising talent. I was thinking of mentoring him more when I have time."

Bai Yuning hadn't recovered from the previous sentence when she heard Uncle Liu say this again, and her eyes widened in surprise.

Bring more?

Mr. Liu actually offered to mentor the newcomers?

If this gets out, those elite soldiers in the army who are waiting to be mentored will probably be green with envy.

"What's wrong, sis? Are your eyes bothering you?"

Jiang Che keenly noticed that Bai Yuning's expression was a little off, so he immediately asked with great concern.

Although Bai Yuning always appeared calm and capable in front of patients, he always felt that Bai Yuning seemed a little more reserved in front of Uncle Liu.

Even...a little awe?

"Get lost, it's your eyes that are uncomfortable."

Bai Yuning rolled her eyes at him, and just as she was about to say something, a weak female voice suddenly came from the ward.

"Old Liu...is Dr. Bai here?"

Upon hearing his wife's voice, Uncle Liu's smile vanished instantly, and he immediately turned around, pushed open the door, and went inside.

"Yes, Dr. Bai is right at the door."

Bai Yuning immediately got into work mode, putting away the playful banter she had been having with Jiang Che.

"Come in."

She waved to Jiang Che and then followed him into the ward.

Jiang Che hesitated for a moment, but still followed him inside.

Since he was already there, and he already knew the uncle, it was only polite for him to go in and visit the aunt.

The three entered the ward. After passing through the partition curtain, Jiang Che saw an aunt with gray hair lying on the bed and knew that this was Uncle Liu's wife.

Although his complexion was somewhat pale and his face was marked by the passage of time, one could still vaguely see the charm of his youth in his eyes and brows.

She has a kind face and a very elegant demeanor.

"Dr. Bai, thank you for making this trip again."

When the aunt saw Bai Yuning, a faint smile appeared on her face. She tried to sit up a little, but Uncle Liu held her down.

"Lie still and don't pull on the needle."

Uncle Liu looked nervous as he helped his wife lie down again and then carefully tucked the blanket around her.

Jiang Che watched the couple's every move quietly, and unconsciously, images of himself and Su Qinghe several years later surfaced in his mind.

They'll probably continue to interact like this in the future, right?

"Don't bother, Auntie. It's what we doctors should do."

Bai Yuning smiled gently, then walked to the bedside, skillfully flipped through the logbook on the bedside table, and looked at the data on the monitor.

"Auntie, I overheard Mr. Liu saying you're feeling better now?"

"I feel much better, my chest doesn't feel so tight anymore."

The aunt smiled and nodded, her gaze passing over Bai Yuning and landing on Jiang Che behind her. "And this is..."

"Oh, he's my younger brother. He came to bring me food."

"Oh, it's your younger brother! I thought he was your boyfriend. He's so handsome and dashing," the aunt said with a smile, her eyes revealing appreciation and approval.

"Yes, he's a grown man now."

Bai Yuning smiled and responded, then turned to look at Jiang Che, "What are you still standing there for? Say hello."

Hello, Auntie.

Jiang Che obediently greeted them, while putting on his signature smile, the kind he used to deal with his elders.

"Hey, hello, hello."

The aunt looked at Jiang Che with eyes full of affection, "How old are you? Do you have a boyfriend?"

have to.

It seems that all aunties in the world cannot escape these questions.

"I've got it. He was just having surgery upstairs, and I'm here with him."

Jiang Che wasn't shy at all and readily admitted it, mainly because he was worried that if he didn't tell her, his aunt would try to set him up with other people.

If Su Qinghe, that jealous little thing, found out, she'd probably give him a hard time.

"Wow, so young and already knows how to be caring. Not bad, not bad."

The old lady was even more satisfied. She turned to Uncle Liu and said, "Look at them, and then look at your stubborn son. He's over thirty and still a bachelor. It's infuriating to look at him."

Uncle Liu wasn't annoyed by the scolding; he just chuckled to himself, "That kid's busy, there's a lot going on in the army."

"What's he so busy with? Wouldn't the earth keep turning without him?"

The old lady glared at him.

Uncle Liu immediately shut up, with an expression that said, "My wife is always right."

Jiang Che watched from the side, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh out loud, feeling somewhat uncomfortable from holding it in.

It turns out this uncle is henpecked.

"Alright, Auntie, don't get angry, or your blood sugar will spike again."

Bai Yuning interjected at the right moment, interrupting the elderly couple's "affectionate" conversation.

"You still need to be careful about what you eat tonight. I already talked to Mr. Liu about it. You can eat half a whole-grain steamed bun, but don't touch any fruit for now."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Dr. Bai."

The aunt nodded in agreement.

After giving a few more instructions, Bai Yuning took Jiang Che and left the ward so as not to disturb the elderly couple's rest.

As Jiang Che walked out of the ward, he could still faintly hear Uncle Liu coaxing his wife from inside.

"Alright, stop looking."

Bai Yuning reached out and patted Jiang Che's shoulder. "Let's go back to the office. I'm starving."

The two walked towards the office, one after the other.

Upon entering the room, Bai Yuning plopped down in a chair and slumped onto the table without any regard for her image.

"I'm exhausted."

She complained as she reached out to rummage through the lunchbox Jiang Che had brought.

Jiang Che pulled up a chair and sat down opposite her, watching her wolf down the sweet and sour pork, his curiosity bubbling like a cat's scratch.

"sister."

He leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "So, who exactly is that guy?"

He felt it just now in the ward.

Although Bai Yuning appeared quite natural on the surface, she actually behaved very properly in every movement, and didn't even dare to utter an extra joke.

For example, when she calls Uncle Liu's wife, she calls her "Auntie," but when she calls Uncle Liu, she always calls him "Mr. Liu."

This is really unusual.
