Chapter 542 Hypocrites Don’t Chat Up Girls

Xiao Yunyun entered the elevator and punched the button to go to the ground floor. She shouted out more curses as the numbers on the monitor became lower. She didn’t even notice the boy of about ten years of age who was standing behind her in the corner.

The little boy blinked with an innocent look as he tugged at Xiao Yunyun’s clothes. “Hello, Big Sister.”

“Huh?” Xiao Yunyun turned her head and saw the cute little boy. She immediately gave a gentle smile and asked, “Hello. Why are you taking the elevator alone? Where are your parents?”

“They’re waiting for me downstairs.” The little boy tilted his head with curiosity. “Big Sister, who were you scolding just now?”

“Was I?” Xiao Yunyun pointed at her dazed face and shook her head with a smile, “Little boy, it wasn’t me.” She pointed to the intercom in the elevator and said, “What you heard just now came from that!”

The little boy stared at Xiao Yunyun with disbelief. He widened his eyes with a serious look. “Big Sister, I’m more than 10 years old.” He meant that he was no longer a three-year-old child.

Xiao Yunyun was silent.

The little boy sighed like an adult. “Forget it. Big Sister, let me tell you a secret!”

Xiao Yunyun nodded. “Go ahead.”

“An uncle told me that hypocrites don’t chat up girls!” the boy said seriously. “So, you know, it’s natural for a man to chat you up!”

She found the words “hypocrites don’t chat up girls” familiar.

Xiao Yunyun asked in bewilderment, “Who’s that uncle?”

“Uncle Yuechuan!” The little boy said with adoring eyes, “He’s so awesome! My father said that he does well in his work. I find that he’s also very good at playing games, and a lot of girls like him. He is my idol!”

“...”

Xiao Yunyun thought to herself with disdain, “I knew it was Shen Yuechuan.”

Nevertheless, she didn’t want to tell the little boy that she thought Shen Yuechuan was a bastard, nor did she want to tell him that it wasn’t a wise choice to regard Shen Yuechuan as his idol.

The elevator doors slowly opened with a tinkling sound at that very moment.

Xiao Yunyun left the hotel without looking back after parting from the little boy. Then she stood by the roadside to stop a taxi.

A green taxi stopped in front of Xiao Yunyun as soon as Shen Yuechuan reached the hotel gate. He shouted, “Xiao Yunyun!”

Xiao Yunyun didn’t look back at all. She opened the taxi door and got into it. “Sir, let’s go.”

The taxi driver was a middle-aged man in his early fifties. He said with a smile, “Young lady, your boyfriend is calling you. Let me tell you, you should calm yourself down. If you can’t do it, I won’t let him get in my car and I’ll drive you where you’re going. What do you think?”

Shen Yuechuan had caught up with the taxi at that moment. He tapped on the window glass as soon as the driver finished his words.

Xiao Yunyun turned her head without rolling down the window.

Upon seeing that, the driver pressed a button to roll down a back window.

“Thank you.” Shen Yuechuan handed the driver a cigarette. Then he reached his hand into the taxi with his upper body rested on the back window frame. “Get out. Let’s have a talk.”

“I don’t think so.” Xiao Yunyun didn’t even look at Shen Yuechuan. “Go away. I’m going back.”

Shen Yuechuan raised his eyebrow. “Sir, would you turn on the meter first.” With that said, he turned his head and looked at Xiao Yunyun shamelessly. “I won’t leave. Just take a look at me.”

Xiao Yunyun subconsciously turned her head only to look right into Shen Yuechuan’s smiling eyes. She realized that she had been fooled, but she could only blame herself for not being determined.

Still, she came up with an idea.

Xiao Yunyun pressed the button to close the back window and shouted, “This is your last warning. Hands off!”

Shen Yuechuan shook his head. “I won’t. You can close the window or not, as you like.”

Xiao Yunyun looked at Shen Yuechuan’s beaming smile, wondering what had made him so confident. She snorted with cold eyes and pressed the button. Then the glass window went upward with Shen Yuechuan’s hand on it.

It seemed that she was determined to break Shen Yuechuan’s hand. Yet, she felt more or less nervous deep within her heart.

“What if I hurt Shen Yuechuan? He already got a wound on his hand.”

While Shen Yuechuan looked much calmer, with no fear or panic on his face.

He was sure that Xiao Yunyun wouldn’t be cruel to him.

It wasn’t that he thought that Xiao Yunyun liked him. Instead, he thought that a doctor like Xiao Yunyun, who was supposed to save people, would never hurt others.

Shen Yuechuan finally turned out to be right.

Xiao Yunyun released the button when there was barely enough space for his hand between the window glass and the frame.

It turned out that Xiao Yunyun was no match for Shen Yuechuan when it came to psychology.

“That’s the reason why I was fooled by him, isn’t it?” she thought to herself.

Xiao Yunyun flew into a fury. “Shen Yuechuan, what do you want!?”

Shen Yuechuan said with a serious look instead of a beaming smile, “I want to talk with you.”

“There’s nothing to talk about. I don’t feel like talking with you!” Xiao Yunyun shouted, “Hands off! It’s not easy to stop a taxi here. I don’t want to get out and do that again.”

Shen Yuechuan realized that the young lady was angry as he gazed at her. He knew that she wouldn’t listen to him if he insisted on explaining it to her at that moment.

He thought that it would be too rushed to show his sincerity, even if Xiao Yunyun listened to him.

Shen Yuechuan made up his mind. He turned his head and told the driver Xiao Yunyun’s address. Then he withdrew his hand and stood by the roadside looking at her, without uttering anything more.

Xiao Yunyun read something from Yuechuan’s eyes them as she inadvertently met them.

It was a kind of helpless deep love.

She didn’t dare to face him anymore, so she looked away and closed the window. “Sir, let’s go.”

The driver was silent at that moment. He simply started the car and drove toward the address that Shen Yuechuan just told him.

Shen Yuechuan felt a sharp pain within his heart as he watched the taxi leave and finally drive out of his sight. A sense of foreboding suddenly overwhelmed him.

He thought it funny that it was the first time he had felt that way.

“Now that I only need to express my feelings for her, why am I worrying?”

Shen Yuechuan placed his suit jacket over his shoulder in a raffish kind of way. He heard a child’s voice as he was about to go back to the hospital parking lot. “Uncle Yuechuan!”

Shen Yuechuan turned around and saw the child who was from the Pang family.

Su Yicheng was having a hard time when Su Jianan first went to university. She had been working part-time to ease the burden on him back then.

At that time, Lu Boyan had already returned to China. He was worried that it would be dangerous for Su Jianan to do the part-time job, so he asked Shen Yuechuan to arrange for her to work in for the Pang Family as a tutor without telling her about it. Over time, Shen Yuechuan became familiar with the little boy from the Pang Family.

“Little boy,” Shen Yuechuan said smiling as he opened his arms, and the little boy sprinted for him happily. He lifted the little boy with ease and patted his head. “You’ve grown taller.”

“Yes!” The little boy tilted his head. “Uncle Yuechuan, do you know the big sister in the taxi?”

“Yes, I know her.” Shen Yuechuan looked at the little boy with a serious face. “But if you call her Big Sister, you’ll have to call me Big Brother.”

The little boy rested his chin on his hand while blinking his round eyes. “She was cursing you in the elevator just now, wasn’t she?”

From what he knew of Xiao Yunyun, it would be natural for her to scold him in the elevator.

Shen Yuechuan nodded. “It could be her. What did she say?”

“Bastard! You only know how to feel me up!” The little boy pursed his lips. “She’s beautiful, but she knows nothing about how to curse a person.”

Shen Yuechuan couldn’t help but smile. “Did you say anything to her?”

“Yes!” The little boy nodded with pride. “I said that hypocrites don’t chat up girls!”

Shen Yuechuan was very gratified by the little boy’s response. He touched his head and said, “Little boy, you will have good prospects in the future!”

“By the way...” The little fellow held Shen Yuechuan’s shoulders with both hands. “I told her that you taught me that!”

Shen Yuechuan was stunned. He patted the little boy’s hips with a frown. “You wicked little boy, you messed things up.” He handed the little boy in his arms to the hotel waitress. “She’ll take you to your parents. I have to leave for work. I have other fish to fry after work.”

With that said, he walked toward the hospital parking lot.

When he got into his car, Shen Yuechuan realized that he would be late for work, so he decided to drive at leisure in the traffic. It was about 10 a.m. when he went into his office.

His assistant had dealt with some urgent work for him.

Shen Yuechuan breathed a sigh of relief and said to his assistant, “Xiao Yang, thank you.”

“Not at all,” Xiao Yang said, “I know I have to be prepared for that.”

It was the first time that Shen Yuechuan had been confused by Xiao Yang’s words. “What do you mean?”

“You’re like Boss Lu when he got married. Recently you’re always late for work, and you’re like an emotional roller coaster. I found that you easily zoned out at meetings, and you often smiled without warning...” Xiao Yang sighed, “You used to make fun of Boss Lu and said that marriage had made him a changed person. Now it’s time for us to make fun of you. By the way, the other day, you asked me to take some clothes to a girl in your house. Is she your date?”

Shen Yuechuan cursed to himself.

“Sure enough, I have to pay for what I’ve done.”

Yang stopped talking about it. He gave Shen Yuechuan several documents and said, “You can hand them to Boss Lu.”

Shen Yuechuan took the documents and opened the door of Lu Boyan’s office without knocking.

Lu Boyan knew that it was Shen Yuechuan when he heard the footsteps. He looked up and glanced at him with a faint smile.

Shen Yuechuan couldn’t stand the meaningful expression. He placed the documents on the desk. “Well, I’m late. What do you want to say?”

Lu Boyan signed his name on a document swiftly. He sized up Shen Yuechuan casually as he closed the folder. “Were you with Yunyun last night?”

Shen Yuechuan thought for a moment. “... Not really.”

Lu Boyan narrowed his eyes. Shen Yuechuan hastened to say, “She was on the night shift yesterday. She was busy in the emergency ward late last night!”

“Did you stay with her?” Lu Boyan asked, “And then?”

“And then...”

Shen Yuechuan sighed, “Forget it.”

He briefed Lu Boyan on how he had been misunderstood because he forced a kiss on Xiao Yunyun in the hotel. In the end, he said, “She wants to know if I’m sincere to her. Does it mean that she also likes me?”

Shen Yuechuan had always been confident when it came to love.

He thought that there was no girl who couldn’t adore a man like him, who was handsome and rich but not as distant as Lu Boyan or Su Yicheng were.

Nevertheless, he was sincere to seek confirmation from Lu Boyan at that moment, eager to get a positive answer.
