Chapter 309: She is one of a kind
Xie Zheng picked up his wine cup and took a sip. His face then switched back to his usual carefree demeanor, and his tone became nonchalant. "Don't just focus on one tree. Look further ahead, and you'll discover a vast forest."
Ye Qingbai remained silent, only drinking continuously.
The two clinked glasses one after another.
After finishing one bottle, Ye Qingbai asked for another.
"Come on, brother, cheers!"
Xie Zheng sat down next to Ye Qingbai affectionately. He leaned closer to Ye Qingbai and tentatively asked, "Seriously, how about I introduce you to a girl as outstanding as Lu Shan?"
Ye Qingbo shook his head with a wry smile, "Who is like her? In my heart, she is a unique existence."
"You've met Shen Qian, right?" Xie Zheng put his arm around Ye Qingbai's shoulder, his eyes darting around, his tongue practically tied in knots as he spoke. "How about I introduce Shen Qian to you? She's also a military doctor, even more outstanding than my cousin. She has a great personality and is beautiful. If you spend some time with her, you'll definitely like her."
Although Ye Qingbai had drunk a bit too much, he wasn't confused. Upon hearing Xie Zheng's words, he shoved him away and said, "Get lost. Isn't she a fish in your pond?"
Xie Zheng, "!!!"
He rolled his eyes and said, "Why are you talking so rudely? What do you mean by 'fish in my pond'?"
Xie Zheng coughed lightly, "I don't have a fishpond."
"I'm not getting married, so why would I raise fish?"
Xie Zheng actually felt that he was quite despicable.
Even though he knew Shen Qian liked him, he still wanted to introduce her to Ye Qingbai.
He also harbored his own selfish motives.
He knew what Shen Qian was thinking, and he hoped that she would fall for another man and shift her attention away from him.
Because he himself couldn't give Shen Qian a future, he didn't want her to waste her time and feelings on him.
Shen Qian is the same age as him, and is not young anymore.
He really didn't want to hold her back.
He failed to protect the girl he loved, which makes him a sinner.
I can't delay the other girls any longer; that would only deepen my sins.
Ye Qingbo pushed him away, "Get lost, don't introduce me like that, I only have Lu Shan in my heart."
Ye Qingbo was already quite drunk, and he spoke even more boldly and unrestrainedly, "I like Lu Shan. She's the only one in my heart and eyes. No other girl can catch my eye. I won't give up."
Xie Zheng rolled his eyes helplessly and sighed, "Brother, why are you so stubborn? Lu Shan doesn't like you at all. She has someone in her heart. She's like me; there's no way she can have a second person in her heart for the rest of her life. I understand this feeling better than anyone else. If you keep insisting, it will only create a psychological burden for her, and nothing else will change."
Xie Zheng's words made Ye Qingbai even more depressed. He grabbed a bottle of wine and was about to drink it straight from the bottle when Xie Zheng snatched the bottle from his hand.
"Are you crazy? Don't you value your life?"
Xie Zheng slammed the bottle down on the table and glared at the pathetic Ye Qingbai, yelling, "Aren't you soldiers supposed to be protecting our country? How come you're more impulsive than us uncivilized civilians? Can't you live without a girlfriend? What are you doing here, acting like a drunkard? You look so pathetic, you're not like a soldier at all, just as useless as me."
“No, you’re not even as good as me,” Xie Zheng said. “Lu Shan just won’t date you, but at least she’s doing well. You’re much happier than me, so can’t you just wish her well from afar?”
Ye Qingbai was rendered speechless by Xie Zheng's reprimand.
The whole person fell silent.
Xie Zheng poured him a glass of water and softened his tone, "Drink some water first, don't drink alcohol."
Ye Qingbai's hand holding the water glass was starting to tremble, but he was still conscious.
He drank some water to calm himself down and asked Xie Zheng, "Brother, what kind of person does Lu Shan really have in her heart? You're related to her, you should know about her love life."
"this......."
Xie Zheng's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "I don't know him."
Ye Qingbai said with certainty, "There's no way you wouldn't recognize him."
Ye Qingbai appeared to be drunk, but his thinking was actually quite clear.
He analyzed logically and with evidence, "Lu Shan hasn't changed jobs in all these years. After finishing her internship at the Army Hospital, she has been working at the Nancheng Military Region Hospital. You have also been staying in Nancheng. If she really had some unforgettable love, you couldn't possibly not know."
He looked at Xie Zheng and said, "You are perceptive, sensitive, and good at noticing the little details in the people around you. You definitely know about Lu Shan's matter."
Ye Qingbai's words left Xie Zheng speechless.
It has to be said that although this guy has only known him for a short time, his understanding of him is quite accurate.
He certainly has that ability.
Good at noticing details.
With his keen insight, he can always quickly and accurately detect when someone around him is in a relationship.
Just like Lu Ya and that man from a poor background, and Ye Qingbai's feelings for Lu Shan...
He could see through it with just one glance.
Xie Zheng had drunk a bit too much and was feeling dizzy.
After Ye Qingbo praised him like that, he got carried away.
The mouth moves faster than the brain.
"I do know a little about her."
Ye Qingbai's eyes flickered slightly as he moved closer to him.
Xie Zheng put his arm around Ye Qingbai's shoulder, looked at him with admiration, and said, "Brother, I must say, you know me quite well."
"You know what? Back then, Lu Shan's family didn't know about her relationship. I was the only one who found out." Xie Zheng said with a smug look on his face.
Upon hearing his words, Ye Qingbai looked at him with a curious expression, her eyes glazed over from the alcohol.
He pressed further, "Then tell me quickly, who is the person in her heart? What does he do for a living?"
Ye Qingbai was eager to know information about that man.
She wanted to compare herself to the man in Lu Shan's heart.
If he is better than that man, then he will definitely regroup and never give up.
Xie Zheng still had a sliver of reason left in his mind, and he hesitated, "Well, you shouldn't ask about that."
"Brother Zheng, can you just tell me about that man?" Ye Qingbai grabbed his arm and shook his head.
It has a hint of coquetry in it.
Xie Zheng remained resolute this time, saying, "It's not convenient to say."
Ye Qingbai's eyes flickered slightly as he considered before speaking, "Is there something you can't say? Is that man's identity something you're ashamed to reveal?"
"Could it be that she's fallen for someone she shouldn't?" Ye Qingbo started brainstorming. Now that he'd had too much to drink, he was beginning to have wild thoughts and talk nonsense.
"Could it be like that Lu Ya girl, who fell in love with someone her family disapproved of, so they opposed their relationship and forced them to separate? And she's been dragging it out until now out of spite?"
Xie Zheng, "!!!"
How did that brain of yours grow?
