Chapter 1201: Intentionally Misled
If it weren't for Jian Yiling, if she failed this operation, anyone else in the hospital would have failed the operation as well. There would be no one there to threaten her position or authority.
As she thought about this, Fei Qing suddenly thought about Bai Pingping.
After a moment of contemplation, Fei Qing wiped away the tear marks on her face and went to wash her face.
Then, Fei Qing sent a message to Bai Pingping and asked her to go shopping as a break after work.
"Dr. Fei, I feel so bad for you," Bai Pingping said.
"I'm alright. It's true that I'm not as skilled as Jian Yiling. I'm glad that our Vice Dean only decided to demote me and not fire me. It's already very lenient treatment," Fei Qing replied frankly.
"Ahh, you are really good-tempered and good-hearted," Bai Pingping said. "If I was in that situation, I wouldn't be thinking those things."
Fei Qing smiled and replied: "I'd like to thank you for caring so much about me. During times like this, I can see who is worthy to be my good friend. It's those that don't leave me."
These words made Bai Pingping incredibly happy.
She was just a trainee nurse. Naturally, she was happy to be friends with a doctor at Fei Qing's level.
From the time she entered the hospital, she knew that it would be beneficial for her to maintain a good relationship with Fei Qing. And thus, whenever someone had a bone to pick with Fei Qing, she would be the first person to stand up for Fei Qing.
"Let's go buy a handbag. Buying handbags will comfort me," Fei Qing said as she pulled Bai Pingping into a luxury store. She picked out a handbag that cost roughly a hundred thousand dollars.
When she went to pay for the handbag, Fei Qing took out her wallet from her bag. She accidentally dropped a piece of paper which fell to the ground.
Bai Pingping went ahead to help Fei Qing pick up the piece of paper. When she picked it up, she saw her name on the paper.
Bai Pingping was shocked to see this. When Fei Qing realized that she dropped that piece of paper, she hurriedly grabbed it from Bai Pingping's hands.
After paying for the bag, the two of them left the sore. Bai Pingping decided to ask Fei Qing about the piece of paper.
However, Fei Qing went silent. After a moment of hesitation, she replied: "You shouldn't ask about it."
"Dr. Fei, didn't you say I was your good friend? I read something about an assessment on that piece of paper. What exactly is that about? If you don't tell me the situation, I won't be able to sleep well at night."
Upon hearing this, Fei Qing acted as though she was put in a difficult position. However, after a moment of agonization, she replied: "Okay, I will make an exception for you. However, you need to promise me that you can't tell anyone I told you about this."
"Mhmm, of course, I will make that promise. Rest assured. I won't tell anyone else."
"This is the assessment form for trainees and interns. These forms will be filled out by the head of each department. In other words, the opinions of chief physicians and doctors outside your department matter as well. As I was previously the chief physician of the surgical department, I would naturally have such a form."
"Then how did I go in my assessment?" Bai Pingping hurriedly asked.
She wanted to succeed. If she succeeded, she could become an official employee at Lahaisen Hospital's Beijing branch.
"Well, you would have passed... But..."Fei Qing started. The expression on her face looked torn. It seemed as though she did not want to tell Bai Pingping something.
"But what?" Bai Pingping asked anxiously. She desperately wanted to know what was going on.
"But someone gave you a very bad evaluation. Therefore, you have the worst grade amongst your cohort."
"Who? Who gave me a very bad evaluation?" Bai Pingping asked angrily.
"You shouldn't ask about this."
When she heard this response from Fei Qing, an answer surfaced in Bai Pingping's heart.
Chapter 1202: Competing for a Spot to Accompany Jian Yiling at the Team Building Event (1)
"Jian Yiling did this right?" Bai Pingping asked. The more she thought about this, the more likely this was the answer. "She's the only doctor that has a bad impression of me! That's right, it must be her!"
Bai Pingping was furious.
Why did Jian Yiling give her a bad evaluation?
Did she ever work with her?
Did she ever get the opportunity to evaluate her abilities?
She was obviously just holding a personal grudge against her!
"Okay, okay. Please don't be upset. Just act as though you don't know about this matter," Fei Qing replied. She did not deny Bai Pingping's guess.
So her guess was right? Did Jian Yiling actually do this?!
Upon reaching this conclusion, Bai Pingping was utterly furious.
"She shouldn't do such a thing!" Bai Pingping cried out. She felt as though she was going to collapse.
Jian Yiling was trying got ruin her entire life! She was trying to ruin her career!
"Don't think too much into it. There's no point in being upset. She's from Lahaisen Hospital's headquarters."
No point in being upset?
How was that possible?!
Bai Pingping felt as though the sky was crashing down onto her.
"But I didn't make any mistakes! Why would she do this to me? I worked so hard to become a trainee nurse at Lahaisen Hospital. Just because of her evaluation, all my hard work has gone down the drain. Why can't I be upset?!"
"But there's nothing you can do... There's no use in being upset. Unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Nothing really. A random thought just popped into my mind. Unless Jian Yiling disappeared from this world," Fei Qing said slowly.
Jian Yiling disappearing from this world...
Bai Pingping froze for a moment.
Then, an evil thought was planted into her mind.
###
At the end of the week, all the employees of Lahaisen Hospital's Beijing branch were going on a camping trip to West Mountain Lake.
They were permitted to bring someone with them.
Everyone who had a partner would bring their partner. If they didn't, they were allowed to bring their siblings.
After Jian Yunmo posted the news on his WeChat timeline, everyone in the Jian family stated that they wanted to accompany Jian Yiling on the weekends.
And thus, a WeChat group called the [Wolf Killing Association] was created. Everyone immediately started messaging in the group:
Jian Yunnao was the first to send a message: [Brother Yunmo, please let me have this opportunity. You said that I should try and get close with Yiling again. This camping trip would be an incredible opportunity. I don't want to miss out.]
However, Jian Yuncheng used a very valid point to counter Jian Yunnao's message: [You don't have enough camping experience. In fact, I don't even know if you will be able to look after Yiling. Yiling might have to look after you instead.]
Jian Yumin also quickly sent a message: [I want to go! I want to go! I've been camping with Yiling before!]
When Jian Yumin sent this message, he immediately received a bunch of objections:
Jian Yuncheng: [You're probably worse than Little Yunnao.]
Jian Shuxing: [Didn't you go camping with Yiling last time? You didn't know how to do anything. He had to rely on Yiling to take care of him.]
Jian Yunnao: [Brother Yumin has a son to take care of. He should stay home with his son.]
Jian Yujie: [You should take care of our sister-in-law and your son. You can leave Yiling to us.]
Jian Yiheng: [Is there going to be a barbecue on this camping trip? Will Yiling be doing the cooking?]
Wen Nuan also posted a message: [Little Yunmo, I want to attend this camping trip. Let your mother take care of your sister.]
After Wen Nuan sent this message, no one other than Jian Yunmo dared to reply anything.
Jian Yunmo: [Mother, this is a team-building event for young people. Usually, people would bing their partner or their siblings. It would be rare for someone to bring their parents.]
Wen Nuan was a little sad to read this message: [Ahh, if that's the case... It will be better to leave this opportunity with you guys.]
Wen Nuan did not want others to treat her daughter strangely because of this.
Chapter 1203: Competing for a Spot to Accompany Jian Yiling at the Team Building Event (2)
Jian Yujie: [I'm about the same age as Yiling. It's best for me to go. The other brothers are too old.]
Jian Yunnao was displeased to read this: [I'm only a few months older than you. I can also go!]
Jian Yuncheng: [Does someone think that we're old?]
Jian Yiheng: [I can protect Yiling.]
Jian Yujie could feel the chill through his screen. He quickly typed: [No no, definitely not. I didn't mean that! [Love heart]]
Jian Yunmo helplessly typed out a message: [Are you guys forgetting about Zhai Yunsheng? It's normal for people to bring their partner to these events.]
Jian Shuxing: [Yunmo, you must learn how to keep Yiling in the Jian family for as long as possible. You can't let the Zhai family take the lead in everything.]
Jian Yunnao: [Our father is right about this.]
Jian Yujie: [Yep, my uncle is right! Even though Yiling is going to get married into the Zhai family sometime in the future, we will always be her closest relatives. She should think of us before her fiance!]
Even Jian Yumin typed out: [They're right. They're right.]
When Jian Yunmo read the messages, he did not know how to feel.
Why were they all placing the blame on him?
Jian Yunmo: [But I can't make this decision for Yiling. If you guys want to go, you should speak to Yiling about this. Yiling can decide who she wants to bring along.]
Jian Yuncheng: [You should ask Yiling.]
Jian Yunmo did not know what to say to his tyrant brother: [Okay, okay. I will call her in a bit.]
Zhai Yunsheng also saw the news about Lahaisen Hospital's team-building event.
After he arrived home, he saw Jian Yiling being busy at her desk. And thus, Zhai Yunsheng coughed gently.
Upon hearing Zhai Yunsheng cough, Jian Yiling immediately stopped what she was doing and looked at Zhai Yunsheng.
"Have you caught a cold? Is your throat feeling uncomfortable?"
"Nope," Zhai Yunsheng replied. "I heard that you're planning to go on a trip this weekend?"
"Mhmm."
"Are you going as well?"
"Yep."
When she heard that Zhai Yunsheng was alright, Jian Yiling directed her attention back to the work at hand. She did not notice Zhai Yunsheng's expression and let alone figure out what he was implying.
Zhai Yunsheng pursed his lips together. He knew that his little rabbit had limited reading comprehension abilities. If he didn't tell her what he wanted, he could be waiting until tomorrow morning and she wouldn't even know what he implied.
Zhai Yunsheng walked over to Jian Yiling and leaned against the desk.
"Who are you going to take with you?"
"To where?" Jian Yiling asked.
"To the team building event. You're meant to bring someone with you."
"Do you want to go?" Jian Yiling asked rhetorically.
"Is that a question of whether or not I want to go? It's a matter of whether or not you want to bring me," Zhai Yunsheng replied pridefully.
Naturally, Zhai Yunsheng wanted to go. However, he didn't want to tell her directly.
"I haven't thought about it," Jian Yiling answered.
"Then think about it now."
"Then I will bring you with me," Jian Yiling replied quickly.
She didn't want to waste time thinking about this. In her mind, this wasn't important.
"Are you being too hasty with your decision?"
Hasty?
Was she meant to think about it a bit more?
What was there to think about?
"Oh, I guess I will think about it again," Jian Yiling answered.
Just as she was about to think through it again, her phone rang. It was Jian Yunmo calling.
Jian Yiling answered her phone.
"Yiling, who are you planning to bring to the weekend trip?" Jian Yunmo asked. He had been ordered by his parents and brothers to ask.
"I'm thinking about it right now," Jian Yiling replied. She was way too honest.
Chapter 1204: I'm Jealous
Jian Yunmo paused for a moment and asked Jian Yiling: "Yiling, you spend most of your days with Zhai Yunsheng. You don't spend as much time with your family members anymore. Do you want to consider bringing someone from the Jian family to the team building event on the weekends?"
As the room was quiet and Zhai Yunsheng was close to Jian Yiling, he could hear every single word Jian Yunmo said.
Despite this, Zhai Yunsheng did not say anything. He patiently waited for Jian Yiling's response.
After hearing this, Jian Yiling thought about it for a moment. She did not say no to Jian Yunmo's suggestion. Instead, she asked: "Brother Yunmo, who should I bring with me?"
When Jian Yiling ran into a situation she didn't know the answer to, she would typically ask Jian Yunmo for help. She wanted him to help her choose.
However, in this situation, Jian Yunmo did not have an answer either. If he made a decision, the rest of the Jian brothers who didn't get to go would definitely want to beat him up.
"Why don't you ask for Zhai Yunsheng's opinion?"
Jian Yunmo was only responsible for asking Jian Yiling. This was the task given to him by his parents and brothers. However, he wasn't responsible for the overall outcome.
And thus, in such a situation, it was best to kick the ball to Zhai Yunsheng.
Jian Yiling turned her head to look at Zhai Yunsheng. She looked like a little kitten.
Zhai Yunsheng replied: "There are so many brothers in the Jian family. You shouldn't favor one over the other. I don't think it's suitable to pick one of them to bring along."
This was a very valid reason.
"Then who should I bring?" Jian Yiling asked in a soft voice.
"Why don't you think about it?' Zhai Yunsheng replied. He wanted Jian Yiling to reach the answer by herself.
After thinking about it for a moment, Jian Yiling found the perfect answer. "Sister En."
She explained the rationale behind her answer: "I have a lot of brothers but I only have one sister-in-law."
Furthermore, Luo Xiuen was also around the same age as her. As her only sister-in-law, her status in the Jian family could not be questioned.
Making such a decision fulfilled Jian Yunmo's request of bringing someone from the Jian family. At the same time, she wouldn't be favoring one Jian brother over another.
It was the perfect answer.
Zhai Yunsheng: "..."
Upon hearing Jian Yiling's answer, Jian Yunmo began to laugh as well. His laughter was refreshing and melodious.
"Alright, go and inform your sister-in-law about this. I'm sure she will be very happy to accompany you to the team building event."
"Mhmm."
And thus, Jian Yiling sent a message to Luo Xiuen asking her whether she wanted to accompany her to the event on the weekends.
Then, she thought about her nephew. She instantly added the message: [You can bring your son as well.]
This situation was akin to when the fisherman takes advantage of the fight between the snipe and the clam.
Luo Xiuen never thought that Jian Yiling would invite her to such an event. In her mind, there were so many people that would be invited instead of her.
Luo Xiuen laughed and replied to Jian Yiling's message: [Of course I have time. I won't bring my son along. I will leave him to his father and the nanny. It's not like our family can't afford to hire a nanny or something.]
After she sent the message, Jian Yiling turned around. She noticed that Zhai Yunsheng was staring at her.
"What's wrong?" Jian Yiling asked.
"Am I not worth mentioning?"
"Huh?" Jian Yiling responded. Confusion filled her face. She did not understand what Zhai Yunsheng meant.
"Why didn't you tell your brother that you wanted to bring me along?" Zhai Yunsheng asked.
"But Brother Yunmo asked me to bring a family member..."
"Do you have to listen to him? Am I not part of your family?"
"But... Brother Yunmo said to bring someone from the Jian family," Jian Yiling attempted to reason with Zhai Yunsheng.
"Who is more important to you, me or Brother Yunmo?" Zhai Yunsheng questioned.
Jian Yiling did not know how to answer this question.
"Are you... Upset?" Jian Yiling asked cautiously.
She didn't understand what was happening.
"Hmph," Zhai Yunsheng said as he suddenly lowered his head to kiss Jian Yiling.
Chapter 1205: Husband
When he couldn't explain something in words, it was best to be expressed in actions.
The kiss took over all of Jian Yiling's senses. It caused her brain to completely lose its ability to think.
During that kiss, the only thing she could think about was Zhai Yunsheng.
When Zhai Yunsheng noticed that Jian Yiling was almost out of breath, he let go of her.
Jian Yiling's face was flushed as she gasped for air.
When he saw the look on Jian Yiling's face, Zhai Yunsheng couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Then, he forced himself to look away from her cute and attractive appearance. He had to calm down.
"Remember that the look just now wasn't anger. It's called jealousy," Zhai Yunsheng said awkwardly. He said those words in a super prideful manner.
"But you're different from Brother Yunmo. You're my husband. On the other hand, Brother Yunmo is my brother. You shouldn't be comparing one against another."
"What did you say?" Zhai Yunsheng asked as he suddenly looked around.
"You're different from Brother Yunmo. You shouldn't compare yourself to him."
"Not that sentence. What did you just call me?"
"My... Husband..."
Zhai Yunsheng suddenly closed the distance between Jian Yiling and said: "Say those words again."
All the unhappiness he felt just now instantly dissipated. The words "husband" echoed in his ears and heart.
Zhai Yunsheng was determined to get Jian Yiling to call him her husband again.
Those words were incredibly sweet and delightful to hear from his rabbit's mouth.
"No, no more," Jian Yiling replied. She suddenly felt incredibly embarrassed.
However, Zhai Yunsheng was not willing to let her escape like this. He got even closer to her and said: "Didn't you want to have a baby with me? How can you have a baby without even calling me your husband?"
"Bad husband!" Jian Yiling exclaimed before she quickly ran away from Zhai Yunsheng.
Rabbits indeed bolted fast when they were flustered.
Upon seeing this, a smile appeared on Zhai Yunsheng's face as he watched Jian Yiling run away.
###
After confirming with Luo Xiuen, Jian Yunmo posted the message on the [Wolf Killing Association] Wechat group.
It appeared as though the Jian brothers argued over the spot for nothing.
However, no one dared to object.
After all, none of them had gotten married. The only sister-in-law they had was Luo Xiuen.
Therefore, Luo Xiuen's position in the Jian family was unmoveable.
Jian Yiheng: [Well, we should think of this from a positive perspective. At least Zhai Yunsheng isn't going.]
Jian Yujie: [Sister-in-law, please take care of Yiling for us. Don't let Yiling get bullied. Just leave Little Dandan to your husband and I. I will come over to look after my nephew on the weekends.]
Jian Yunmo suggested: [Brother Yunmo, why don't you go and attend the team building event as well? I will accompany you there.]
Even though Jian Yunmo was not a part of the Beijing branch, as the hospital essentially belonged to their family, if he wanted to go, no one could stop him.
The other Jian brothers quickly agreed with this suggestion.
Jian Yuncheng: [This is a decent recommendation. You should consider it.]
Jian Yunmo: [Ahh, alright then. I can't say no to the two of you. The two of you can scissor paper rock to decide who is going.]
Even though he said this, in reality, Jian Yunmo also wanted to go.
Upon reading this message, Jian Yunnao quickly looked for Jian Yuncheng.
After all kinds of begging, his eldest brother finally gave the opportunity to him.
"Brother Yuncheng... Yiling already called you her eldest brother. She hasn't called me brother yet... Furthermore, Yiling knitted a sweater and scarf for you. I have nothing..."
Out of all the Jian brothers, he was the only one who didn't have a sweater.
In the end, Jian Yuncheng decided to leave the spot to Jian Yunnao.
