Li Jin still has a little conscience, so he advised Lu Li: "I feel that there's no need for this. Let's not go through with this bet. It's better to have a clear conversation with Dr. Qi. If he's not interested, then just forget about it. There are plenty of other people waiting for you."

Lu Li looked at him disdainfully and smiled, saying, "What do you know? I haven't even tried seeing a doctor yet. It's more fun this way."

Li Jin and Chen Ye: "......"

"Listen to your brother's advice, just in case someone finds out, we won't have a good time. Let's stop." Chen Ye said as well.

They were really intimidated. Only when they were drinking together last night did they realize that they couldn't mix with that group of people. Those people were truly prominent individuals, while they were just insignificant nobodies.

Lu Li neither confirmed nor denied, saying, "No, why are you all being so timid? What's the big deal about admitting a mistake? In fact, I've never apologized to anyone before, so they should feel honored."

Lu Li comes from a prominent background. Although he shares the same surname as the Lu family in Beijing, they have no relation. However, it seems that his father has some business dealings with the Lu family, while his mother is a princess holding a foreign noble title. Since childhood, he has been the center of attention.

Until later, the couple's relationship became estranged and they decided to divorce amicably. They both focused on their own careers, and when Lu Li was fourteen, he returned to China from the United Kingdom, where he had lived since childhood.

Although he had returned to China, in recent years, whenever he had free time, he would also visit his mother in England.

Overall, Lu Li is still a prince in name only.

It sounds quite amusing, after all, such a system ceased to exist in China a long time ago. Nowadays, China adopts the principle of equality for all. However, the truth is just like that - Luli has half of royal bloodline.

Growing up in such a family background, Lu Li had a smooth life. Despite his parents' divorce, they still gave him the love he deserved. Lu Li, who had already spent the most time abroad, naturally matured mentally earlier than boys of the same age.

"You shouldn't jump to conclusions so early. Anyway, just let us know if there's anything that arises in the future, and if I can help, I'll do my best," said Chen Ye.

Lu Li chuckled at the words of these two people and said, "Alright, I understand."

In order to pursue Qi Yunjing, Lu Li specifically searched online for how to pursue a doctor boyfriend, but none of the answers satisfied him.

In the past, it was always others who pursued Lu Li. Now that the roles have reversed, Lu Li finally understands the mindset of those who pursue someone.

In the evening, he went to the hospital again. He had already obtained Qi Yunjing's working hours from Xu Zhi beforehand.

Qiyun Jing was really busy. Every time Luli tried to find him, he was unavailable. Maybe knowing that he was busy this time, Luli went straight to the nurse station. Xia Tao happened to be on duty today.

Dr. Qi is in a meeting," Xia Tao said happily when she saw Lu Li coming. The other nurses all wanted her to ask Lu Li for his WeChat account, but her heart belonged only to Dr. Qi.

"Okay, I'll wait here then." Lu Li remained leaning against the nurse station, attracting the attention of several people around him.

Xia Tao handed him a glass of water and said, "We don't know specifically what Dr. Qi likes. If we knew, we would have told you earlier."

Luli understood the meaning behind these words. He smiled and looked straight at Xia Tao, saying, "If you want to pursue someone, you should show it. Dr. Qi is a very busy person, I can't let him feel annoyed by me."

Xia Tao paused for a moment and then laughed along, saying, "Actually, we think you and Dr. Qi look quite compatible. So, we wish you good luck in getting together with him soon. Otherwise, with his workaholic nature, there will be no one else left in the hospital except him."

"It's only natural..." Lu Li's voice stopped halfway as his gaze fell upon the man and woman walking down the corridor beside him.

The two individuals seemed to be discussing a matter. The woman was slightly shorter, while the man, with a gentlemanly demeanor, gave a slight bow, dressed in a white coat, creating a harmonious appearance.

Seeing that his expression wasn't right, Xia Tao carefully explained, "That's Dr. Xu Ruan, a friend of Dr. Qi."

Lu Li's lips curled slightly at the corners as he lazily straightened up, slowly walking towards Qi Yunjing.

"Go back and send me the analysis of that case. Remember the content of this meeting..." Before Qi Yunjing could finish his sentence, Lu Li's voice came through.

"Dr. Qi,"

Xu Ruan had been attentively listening to Qi Yunjing's speech, but who knew that someone would suddenly interrupt. She looked up and her expression froze.

Qi Yunjing looked up at him, and Lu Li's face still had a smiling expression. He said, "Dr. Qi, if you have time tonight, let's have dinner together."

Qi Yunjing: "I still have something to attend to."

Lu Li blinked his eyes and said, "Dr. Qi is lying. There was clearly nothing going on tonight, and he is not on duty tonight."

Qi Yunjing said seriously to him, "After work, I still have experiments to conduct, data to collect, projects to design, proposals to write, and papers to write. I don't have time."

Lu Li furrowed his brows, looking a bit unhappy. "Dr. Qi didn't even give me a chance."

Looking at his face, Qi Yunjing paused for a moment before saying, "There's only one hour left."

Lu Li's eyes lit up, knowing that Qi Yunjing had agreed to his request. He almost couldn't help but embrace Qi Yunjing, a smile forming at the corners of his mouth. "Thank you, Dr. Qi. Then, I'll be waiting for you."

Xu Ruan, who had always been treated as a third wheel: "..."

She shouldn't have appeared here.

"Dr. Qi, I just remembered that I have something else to attend to, so I will head back first. Thank you for your guidance earlier."

Qi Yun nodded and said, "Hmm."

After Xu Ruan left, Lu Li didn't care about the current situation and directly said with a look of grievance, "Doctor Qi, does that woman like you? Have you given her a chance?"

Qi Yunjing had a slight headache. "She doesn't like me, don't overthink it."

Just now, Lu Li, who was still feeling wronged, immediately laughed and said, "Dr. Qi, quickly go back and change your clothes. I'll wait for you."

The two of them went to a different restaurant for dinner, and Lu Li expressed his fondness for Qi Yunjing throughout the entire meal.

Feeling a little tired.

Qi Yunjing thought to himself.

Thinking that he himself was just prey for Lu Li, everything before his eyes could be an illusion. When Lu Li ceased his pursuit, all of this would disappear.

I don't feel like playing with him anymore. He thought a lot last night, and since Lu Li wants to play, he will accompany her to the end. But now, looking at Lu Li's peach blossom eyes, there is clearly no love, but they are very affectionate.

Qi Yunjing said expressionlessly, "I am not on duty tonight either, let's do it."

Lu Li was taken aback. Obviously, he didn't expect that he would hear those words. Although it was what he had been wanting all along, it felt a bit unexpected. "What?"

Qi Yunjing smiled and said, "I thought you understood what I meant."

He certainly understood, but he didn't know why Qi Yunjing suddenly agreed. This morning, he even said that he didn't like himself.

He didn't quite understand Qi Yunjing.

"If you didn't hear it clearly, forget about it," Qi Yunjing didn't repeat himself, "Just focus on eating your meal."

Qi Yunjing didn't have any bad tone of voice at all. Lu Li even found himself captivated by his gentle voice, but at the same time he could sense a sense of alienation in his words.

Lu Li nodded and made a sound of acknowledgment. Whenever he was having a meal, he couldn't help but talk to Qi Yunjing. It was something he had never done before. Qi Yunjing didn't ignore him or brush him off, but instead, he would occasionally respond to what Lu Li said.

After a "candlelight dinner," a waiter approached Qi Yunjing with a bouquet of flowers and said with a smile, "Sir, this bouquet of flowers is a gift from the gentleman next to you. Please accept it."

Qi Yunjing looked up at Lu Li and saw him propping up his chin with his hand, tilting his head and smiling charmingly, saying, "Dr. Qi, won't you accept it?"

Perhaps it was the dim lighting that made Lu Li's face appear innocent and harmless. Those blue eyes seemed to possess a magical aura, captivating Qi Yunjing deeply.

He had received flowers from men before, so he naturally accepted the flowers and placed them on the empty table. His lips curved slightly, as he looked at Lu Li and said, "Thank you, I really like them."

Did you ever send flowers like this to someone before?

As Qiyun Jing looked at him, he wondered in his heart.
