Although Jiang Yingjie was invited by Lu Jingchen to be Tan Shuya’s personal doctor, he had worked at this hospital before. Jiang Yingjie, with his handsome looks, was every inch the ideal man in a white coat. His skills were also impressive, and it was clear he wasn’t ordinary, so he was once the prince charming in the eyes of many nurses in the hospital.

The female doctor in front of him likely saw Jiang Yingjie as her prince charming too, but when she first came to this hospital as an intern, she didn’t have the chance to get close to him, let alone talk to him, until now.

Her heart thumped wildly as she looked at Jiang Yingjie’s handsome face, feeling shy. She spoke gently, "Doctor Jiang, Miss Tan only has a high fever, nothing serious. Once this IV is finished and she gets some sleep, she’ll be fine."

Jiang Yingjie finally breathed a sigh of relief and responded with an "Mmm," adding, "Thank you."

The female doctor quickly shook her head, "Doctor Jiang, you’re too polite. This is just my duty, not a bother at all..."

Jiang Yingjie said nothing, his gaze settling deeply on Tan Shuya inside the ward, lost in thought.

The female doctor stood beside Jiang Yingjie, gathered her courage after a few minutes of silence, and shyly asked, "Doctor Jiang, are you free after work tonight? Um... Can I invite you to dinner?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yingjie turned to look at the female doctor, his thin lips parting as he asked firmly, "You like me?"

His question sounded like a question, yet it was very certain.

The female doctor’s face turned red immediately, and she could even feel her ears getting hot. She didn’t expect to be seen through so easily.

After hesitating for a moment, she nodded and admitted, "Yes, Doctor Jiang, I like you."

As she spoke, she raised her head to look at Jiang Yingjie, her cheeks flushed pink with shyness. She continued, "Jiang Yingjie, I’ve liked you for over four years. From the moment I saw you in the hospital, I fell for you. So, Doctor Jiang, can you give me a chance?"

Looking at the bold confession from the female doctor in front of him, Jiang Yingjie’s mind drifted to a delicate face.

In his memory, that woman also confessed to him that day. Her face was flushed, and she spoke firmly, "Jiang Yingjie, I like you, very much. When I was a freshman and you were a junior, I watched you speak as the school’s representative. At that moment, I fell for you. Because you went abroad, I never got the chance to confess. I thought I’d regret it for a lifetime. But didn’t expect fate to let us meet again. Do you think this is destiny?"

"So, Jiang Yingjie, would you be my boyfriend? Or, would you consider having a girlfriend?"

"..."

That was three years ago at a charity event when Song Xi confessed to him while he was drunk.

At that time, he didn’t recognize who Song Xi was. He thought she was just a junior from high school, with no memory of her in his mind.

Oddly enough, he somehow agreed to be Song Xi’s boyfriend. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Only later did he realize his girlfriend was the heiress of the Song Group, Lu Jingchen’s sister-in-law from the Lu Group, and one of the top four starlets, starring in many TV shows that broke records.

But having just returned to China for a year, he was busy with work, never had time to watch TV or follow entertainment news, so he didn’t know about Song Xi back then.

Jiang Yingjie hadn’t responded when the ward door opened, revealing Tan Shuya, holding a bottle of medicine with a drip, looking a bit displeased. She glared at the female doctor and mockingly said, "You might be disappointed. The Doctor Jiang you admire already has a girlfriend, perhaps you didn’t know she’s the popular actress Song Xi. Look at Song Xi’s beauty, then look at yourself. Do you think he’d be interested in you?"

The female doctor’s expression changed, looking at Jiang Yingjie in disbelief, "Doctor Jiang, is what Miss Tan said true?"

She initially had a good impression of Tan Shuya, but she caught the meaning in the phrase, "look at Song Xi’s beauty, then look at yourself."

It was undoubtedly saying she’s not pretty enough to be Doctor Jiang’s girlfriend.

But what she urgently needed to know was if Tan Shuya was telling the truth, if Doctor Jiang was really dating Song Xi?

The female doctor couldn’t deny that Song Xi was indeed very beautiful. She had seen the TV shows Song Xi starred in, and several of them were her favorites. She was even somewhat a fan of Song Xi.

Thus, she found it hard to believe that Doctor Jiang was actually with her idol.

Jiang Yingjie slightly furrowed his brow at Tan Shuya, his expression not looking good, not because she revealed he had a girlfriend, but because she shouldn’t have told anyone his girlfriend was Song Xi.

Song Xi’s special status meant their relationship was kept private, fearing it would affect her career.

Celebrity relationships usually stay underground; few openly reveal their dating status, as being single or in a relationship significantly impacts their work.

Seeing the disbelief in the female doctor, Jiang Yingjie pressed his lips together and finally said, "Yes, I’m currently in a relationship, so I’m very sorry about your invitation."

The female doctor felt her heart shatter, yet she didn’t leave immediately. Instead, she asked, "Doctor Jiang, is your girlfriend really Song Xi? If it’s true, I’ll wish you both well because Song Xi is my idol, I love her shows..."

What she said was genuine. Song Xi’s series were top-tier in the nation, beloved by many, making her a household name.
