She saw Yun Shu’s hand tremble as she held the chopsticks, her facial skin twitching, the fine lines around her eyes uncontrollably sprang forth. The corners of her mouth faintly curled up. Everyone has a soft spot, and Yun Shu’s, well, she’s most afraid of getting old. "Yun Ya, how can you talk about grandma like that..." Disappointment followed as she shook her head, as if Ji Yunya had done something utterly unforgivable. Yun Ya raised an eyebrow, her gaze landing on Kang Jinxian’s neck. "Oh? Aunt Ah Xian, what’s with that red mark on your neck? It kind of looks like...?" She deliberately drew out her tone, instantly drawing Yun Shu’s and Kang Jinse’s attention that way. Kang Jinxian’s heart skipped a beat, instinctively covering her neck. Yun Ya, with a smile, said, "It looks like a mosquito bite, doesn’t it?" Kang Jinxian let out a sigh of relief. "Aunt Ah Xian, why are you so nervous? I didn’t say it was from a man’s kiss. Your reaction might lead to misunderstandings, you know?" A malicious gleam flickered in Yun Ya’s eyes. Try to fight me and I’ll scare you out of your wits. Kang Jinxian glared sinisterly at Yun Ya: "What are you blabbering about?" "Oh, I forgot, Aunt Ah Xian and Young Master He are already engaged. It’s normal for men and women in love, I understand." "Ji Yunya, don’t talk nonsense about me." Kang Jinse’s hands trembled with anger. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novelꜰire.net "Enough, everyone just eat your meal calmly." Yun Shu spoke coldly. After speaking, she glanced at Kang Jinxian whose subconscious stiffness betrayed her at that look. Yun Ya continued to eat leisurely, then, after finishing, nonchalantly grabbed her bag and walked out. No sooner had Yun Ya left than Kang Jinse, in a fury, slammed down her chopsticks: "How much longer is this little whore going to torment us?" Yun Shu cast a cold glance in the direction Yun Ya had left, a cold trace flickering in her eyes. After tossing her chopsticks, Kang Jinxian hurriedly ran to her room, checked her reflection several times in the mirror. Her neck was smooth; where was the love bite supposed to be? Yun Shen wasn’t the type to lose self-control, even when he couldn’t hold back, he would never leave a mark. Kang Jinxian felt a chill in her heart. Had Ji Yunya discovered something? Impossible... She and Yun Shen had been very careful; it must be a coincidence. But she couldn’t shake the unease inside her. Just then her phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, Kang Jinxian quickly picked up. It was Gu Cheng on the line. She had passed the preliminary selection and would participate in the elimination round from 100 to 50 competitors. Gu Cheng confirmed her performance, praising her as a promising recruit and encouraged her to keep up the hard work. After hanging up, Kang Jinxian clenched her fist in determination, intent on reaching the pinnacle. She would show Yun Shen that she was more suitable to stand by his side than her sister. The heart transplant surgery was scheduled for this morning at ten o’clock. Yun Ya rode to the hospital. It was only seven fifty. She went straight to the director’s office. Su Zhiyuan busily made sure she was well taken care of. This was a VIP to be indulged. Yun Ya took a sip of tea, "Wuyi Great Red Robe, the director really knows how to enjoy himself." Su Zhiyuan took out a jar from the drawer: "If you like it, it’s all yours." Yun Ya pursed her lips, "I don’t like drinking tea; it’s bitter." Su Zhiyuan thought to himself that this woman had quite a few quirks. She claimed not to like tea yet identified it in one sip. "My dear, why aren’t you waiting in the operating room instead of here?" Yun Ya listlessly shrugged her shoulders: "Neither the patient nor the donor are here yet, who am I supposed to operate on?" Su Zhiyuan called Pei Jinghong, but no one answered. Su Zhiyuan was so anxious he was nearly sweating. Yun Ya looked at him with a clear, cool gaze: "Director, it’s useless to rush. Let’s just wait patiently." Su Zhiyuan, observing Ji Yunya’s utterly calm demeanor, couldn’t help but admire her. Indeed, Dr. Nyx’s mental fortitude was unparalleled; her calmness seemed to infect him, gradually settling his nerves. As time silently passed by, Wei Qing, who was preparing in the operating room, became anxious. The surgery time was approaching, yet not a single person had shown up. Yun Ya replied, just wait patiently. At nine fifty, Pei Jinghong called to say there was a change of plans, and the surgery was postponed. The new time would be announced later. Yun Ya smiled knowingly; she had expected this. "Director, I don’t think you need to wait around. Go on with your work." She walked out of the director’s office, leisurely. Su Zhiyuan’s face showed total disarray. Well, if the person involved wasn’t in a hurry, why should he be? Yun Ya thought to visit Lin Sili. Just as she arrived outside the ward, she heard an angry woman’s voice from within. "You shameless woman, carrying some man’s child, yet still not acting decently, thinking you can make Doctor Gao clean up your mess. Why don’t you take a good look at yourself in the mirror? Do you think you’re worthy of Doctor Gao?"
