Chapter 576 Come on, Xiao Yunyun (1)

The next day. In the house of the Lu Family, Dingya Villas

There was less than a month left before Su Jianan was due.

All the members in the Lu Family, including the butler Uncle Xu and the driver Uncle Qian, didnt dare to leave Su Jianan alone when Lu Boyan was out as if they were wind-up clocks working in full swing.

Tang Yulan, who was about to be a grandmother, was even more excited. She called Su Jianan twice every day to know how she was feeling in the morning and in the afternoon and asked whether she was tired or whether she was feeling well

It only took Su Jianan less than a week to get herself used to the all-round protection.

What confused Su Jianan was that Lu Boyan was more nervous than a pregnant woman like her.

Her belly became bigger as time went by, which often made her tired so she couldnt help turning over at midnights.

Lu Boyan always woke up from his slumber whenever she made a noise. He held her in his arms as soon as he opened his eyes and asked nervously what had happened to her.

Well, I just want to turn over.

However, it wasnt easy for Su Jianan to turn over during her late pregnancy since she was pregnant with twins. Luckily, it became much easier for her whenever Lu Boyan woke up and helped her.

So most of the time, Su Jianan fell asleep again after turning over. In a daze, she could feel that Lu Boyan was holding her from behind, and it brought her an indescribable sense of security.

However, Su Jianan felt more puzzled after she woke Lu Boyan up too many times.

One day, when they were having breakfast, Su Jianan finally asked, Im pregnant. Why are you so nervous? She thought that the one who would usually feel nervous when a baby was about to be born was the mother.

Lu Boyan raised his eyebrows. He said in a worried voice, I wouldnt have been so nervous if I were you.

He was no longer the Lu Boyan of his youth. He was no longer easily worried by anything after experiencing the rains and winds in his life.

Su Jianan was an exception.

He had always wanted to protect Su Jianan. He couldnt calm himself down whenever he thought of the day Su Jianan would have an operation in the delivery room.

In other words, Lu Boyan would rather suffer the pain for Su Jianan, even if it would be a thousand times more painful than he thought.

Su Jianan knew what Lu Boyan meant. She took a sip of oatmeal mixed with nuts and burst into laughter. Im not nervous at all. Dont worry.

Lu Boyan pondered for a moment and said seriously, I cant.

Su Jianan knew that Lu Boyan couldnt help worrying about her although he knew it was unnecessary, and she could do nothing about it.

Su Jianan simply rested her chin on her hand and said with a teasing smile, I cant believe it! Theres something that Lu Boyan fails to handle. Others will think its impossible if I tell them about it!

The handsome Lu Boyan said with sincerity, Me either.

Su Jianan gave a brighter smile as she stirred the oatmeal in the bowl. By the way, how are Yuechuan and Yunyun? What is Yuechuan going to do?

Lu Boyan said with a calm look, Hes busy with the company business these days. Yuechuan isnt free now.

Su Jianan believed his words. After breakfast, she called Xiao Yunyun.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yunyun sounded like she didnt get up yet.

Su Jianan checked the time and said, Yunyun, its already eight-ten. Are you still lying in bed?

Well ah! Xiao Yunyun jumped out of bed, shocked. She suddenly woke up and said, I overslept! What bad luck! Im going to be late!

Su Jianan shook her head helplessly. Thats it. Get up now.

Xiao Yunyun threw her cellphone away without even speaking to Su Jianan. She brushed, washed, dressed, and rushed downstairs to take a taxi.

She was lucky. A taxi stopped in front of her soon. Xiao Yunyun got in it and slammed the door. Sir, take me to the Eighth Peoples Hospital. Hurry up, please!

The driver thought that Xiao Yunyun was in a hurry to see a doctor, so he said without hesitation, OK. Then he started the car and drove as fast as he could.

Whether Xiao Yunyun would be late or not depended on the traffic and the driver, and she could do nothing about it, so she simply took out her cellphone to call Su Jianan.

Su Jianan was about to see Lu Boyan out.

The summer sun kindled her cheeks with irresistible heat.

Su Jianan had always hated standing in the sun, but she still walked Lu Boyan to the gate while shading her face with her hand.

Lu Boyan smiled as he noticed her reddish cheeks. Go inside. Take care of yourself at home.

Su Jianan nodded as she compressed her beautiful lips, but she didnt move. Lu Boyan knew what she was thinking about. He got in his car, rolled the window down, and said, Call me if you need me.

I will. Su Jianan turned back to walk into the house and waved at Lu Boyan halfway through.

Su Jianan was thin, so her unborn babies were a burden for her. In the past few months, she had always felt tired after a few steps, so she walked slowly.

However, she thought it was good to live a slow life.

Youre wanted on the phone, madam! Aunt Liu rushed out of the house with a cellphone as Su Jianan walked slowly in the garden. Its your cousin calling!

Yunyun? Su Jianan took the phone and asked with a smile, Are you in a taxi?

Yes, Im stuck on Enxi Road. Xiao Yunyun was annoyed. She said helplessly, This is too bad. Ill be late for work today.

You always go to work and leave on time, dont you? Su Jianan asked, Why are you late today?

Xiao Yunyun wanted to tell Su Jianan that something unexpected had happened to her and she was terribly shocked.

After taking a taxi back to her apartment the previous night, Xiao Yunyun had kept thinking about Shen Yuechuan and his new girlfriend. She counted sheep to 10,000 and even read a book halfway through, but she couldnt fall asleep.

She wasnt sad. She just felt lonely.

She had gone to City A from Australia with only her luggage and the dream of becoming a doctor.

Su Yunjin didnt support or understand her, nor did she give her any help. She had checked her baggage and had flown to City A alone. She had stayed at a strange hotel alone after she had left the airport. Further, she had also gone to register at the university alone. She tried to learn a different culture to get herself adapted to a new environment and to become part of a new community.

She had never felt lonely when she did all that alone.

During her internship, she lived alone in a tall apartment. She had meals alone, read alone, and went to many places alone.

She had long been used to doing everything by herself.

However, when she lay alone on her big bed the previous night, she suddenly felt helpless and lonely as she glanced around the dark room.

Deep within her heart, she hoped that Shen Yuechuan could stay with her. She needed no hugs or loving words. She simply wanted him to stay quietly by her side. All she wanted was to see him.

However, she knew that was impossible because Shen Yuechuan was with his new girlfriend.

In a daze, Xiao Yunyun realized that

Falling in love with a person towards whom she couldnt express her feelings had made her the loneliest people in the world.

Xiao Yunyun kept tossing and turning until five oclock in the morning. Finally, she felt tired and fell asleep in a trance.

After daybreak, she would have been still sleeping if Su Jianan hadnt called her.

Xiao Yunyun didnt know how to tell Su Jianan about all that had happened to her, so she simply said, I stayed up late last night watching TV series. I didnt hear the alarm this morning. Well, it wont happen again!

Im not your leader. You dont have to promise me that. Su Jianan didnt believe what she said at all. She asked, Did you really stay up late last night because of the TV series?

Xiao Yunyun felt awkward. So?

Su Jianan said at leisure, Oh, I think it was because of a man but not the TV series.

Realizing that she was seen through, Xiao Yunyun laughed in embarrassment. Cousin, Im reaching the hospital. Call you next time!

Xiao Yunyun hung up with a lightning speed and placed her cellphone back into the bag. How far are we from the hospital, sir?

Itll take 15 minutes! said the driver.

Xiao Yunyun realized that she was late as she checked the time. She decided to give up and said, It doesnt matter, sir. Drive me around City A as you like and then take me to the hospital. Id like to catch up on my sleep.

No. The driver smiled. I heard you talk on the phone just now. You must be a doctor in the hospital. The patients are waiting for treatment. How can I take you around?

Xiao Yunyun was stunned as if she had waked up from a dream.

She realized that no matter what happened, she was a doctor, which was a fact she couldnt change.

She was a doctor, and she was supposed to save others.

As a doctor, she couldnt fail in her duty when she had emotional troubles.

She realized that she shouldnt forget why she had gone to City A in the first place, no matter whether Shen Yuechuan was her brother or her future lover.

After reaching the hospital, Xiao Yunyun rushed to the cardiac surgery department like a bat out of hell. She quickly put on her white medical gown without expecting that she would run across her superior, Dr. Liang.

Yunyun, youre late today. The way Doctor Liang talked was like her medical skills, cold and serious, professional and unquestionable.

Xiao Yunyun turned around and touched her nose. Doctor Liang, I did wrong. I promise you, it wont happen again!

As doctors, we must wait for our patients if theyre late, but we cant be late because they will think that were not dedicated, whatever the reason might be. Dr. Liang gradually calmed down. Since youre late for the first time, Ill let you off with a warning, but just this once!

Xiao Yunyun saluted Dr. Liang. Thank you, Dr. Liang! I promise I wont be late again. Ill try to be a good doctor like you that patients love and the director values!

She was serious.

She had lost Shen Yuechuan. She couldnt lose her dream of becoming a good doctor.

Now its time to cheer up. Come on, Xiao Yunyun! she thought to herself.
