Chapter 5, Journalist

That night, Weibo exploded

Oh, finally there is a scandal that I am somewhat satisfied with. Su Jinbei took another big bite, saying, It is much more aesthetically pleasing than the previous rumors about CEOs and tycoons, or the hidden rules of directors.

Su Jinbei snorted, "Oh."

Zhou Shiyun pressed her lips together and lowered her gaze to her hand. It was just a fleeting moment, but the warmth and contours easily imprinted through the fabric, "I didn't mean to."

Su Jinbei patted his arm, "Well done, Xiao Wei."

"Dr. Zhou, Xiaowei mentioned that you have mild obsessive-compulsive disorder. When I arrived at your office today, it really seemed to be the case." Zhou Shiyun paused for a moment and said nothing more. However, it took him several seconds to digest the fact that 'Xiaowei' should refer to Lin Qingwei.

Without makeup, Su Jinbei indeed lacks a certain captivating allure that radiates on screen, but she does not appear as ghostly as she claims. Her bare face is still the same face, and she can easily stand out in a crowd. Moreover, this version of her surprisingly manages to exude a sense of purity.

"Senior Brother, are you in the office? Many reporters have been coming in and out, and they say Miss Su is in your office. I told them it’s impossible, how could you let her into your office? But they won’t listen to me." Lin Qingwei said while negotiating with the reporters on the phone, "This is a hospital, please be quiet, and do not disturb the patients' rest. Miss Su is really not here, you are mistaken."

"Pfft." It was unclear which nurse couldn't help but laugh at this very kitsune-like name

Su Jinbei chuckled twice, "You really shouldn't say that, Weiwei's fan club has already started attacking me. Sigh, I am also a fan of Weiwei, we are all from the same root, why the rush to harm each other?"

Zhou Shiyun found Su Jinbei's gaze somewhat strange, so she simply decided to avoid seeing it and turned to sit down in the swivel chair behind her desk. "Let's wait a moment; the press conference is leaving."

Su Jinbei cast a glance at Zhou Shiyun, who appeared completely calm, seemingly unwilling to offer any explanation. Su Jinbei snorted softly and deliberately tangled the words, saying, "This... is indescribable"

"Oh, Dr. Zhou, why aren't you speaking? Could it be that you already have a girlfriend? Or perhaps you are married?" Su Jinbei asked with great interest.

Alright! Little Wai hurriedly rushed in

Su Jinbei was momentarily taken aback, feeling that this beauty was somewhat misleading. She then composed herself, turned her gaze aside, and said, "Because there are reporters outside."

He Di, it seems that I have been involved in a scandal with my family member Wei Wei

Zhou Shiyun listened to Lin Qingwei's righteous voice outside the door, pressed her lips together, and felt it necessary to tell him the truth, "Qingwei, Su Jinbei is here"

Little Wai, let's go

Thus, Zhou Shiyun could only furrow his brow, silently reciting the admirable qualities that a doctor should possess, and walked indifferently towards the grinning Su Jinbei.

Zhou Shiyun was about to speak, thinking it should be considered so. However, the office door was suddenly knocked on forcefully, "Senior Brother, the reporters have all left."

Zhou Shiyun seemed to be holding something extraordinary as he brought her to the front of the sofa, tossed her down, and released his grip. Immediately afterward, he said, "I apologize"

The reporter said, "I saw her enter with my own eyes, this doctor. We will conduct a brief interview and leave after it is done"

"Miss Su, tell me secretly, why did you leave your perfectly good hospital room to come to my senior's office?" Lin Qingwei, being the gossip she is, curiously shifted her gaze between the two of them, "You two... hmm?"

Lin Qingwei did not mind either, as this was given to him by his goddess, and anything given by the goddess sounds pleasant. "What are you all laughing at? Why are you still standing here? If there's nothing to do, why not disperse!"

Qing Wei, what is the situation outside

Zhou Shiyun subtly restrained her expression, and her gaze clearly conveyed the message, so what now

Su Jinbei raised her eyebrows at him. She certainly knew that he did not mean it intentionally, but the way he apologized without changing his expression showed that he was indeed not an ordinary man

Su Jinbei lay on the bed, eating an apple while browsing Weibo

"Lacking vision." Su Jinbei scoffed, "Forget it, if they are unworthy, then so be it. I have someone more deserving."

Lin Qingwei, "Hmm?"

At this moment, Su Jinbei was also assisted out by Xiao Wai, and Lin Qingwei quickly moved a wheelchair over for her to sit in, "Miss Su, you have worked hard."

It is impossible! You all hurry and leave, otherwise we will call the police!

Two seconds later, Su Jinbei stared in astonishment at the hand that lay across his chest, his mouth agape and unable to speak

Doctor Zhou, you are not wearing a mask today. Have you recovered from your cold

Xiao Wei, why is this reporter willing to leave

You should stop talking nonsense; Xu Jiawei definitely does not want to stir up such rumors. He is currently in the spotlight, and his fans cannot tolerate even a grain of sand like you.

Zhou Shiyun found his expression quite strange, "How would I know."

Look, Xu Jiawei is a popular young star, but I am not inferior; our statuses are completely compatible. Wait... the final conclusion is that we don't match? What the heck, where is the mismatch? Su Jinbei, feeling quite displeased, scrolled back to the middle of the article, having only glanced at the beginning earlier.

What a ghostly appearance? Zhou Shiyun patiently scanned her from top to bottom upon hearing her words

Zhou Shiyun glanced at her, and a sudden wave of doubt surged within him. Why would the traditionally esteemed grandmother accept this woman, even if the fortune teller claimed that their birth dates and zodiac signs were compatible? However, he truly could not discern any point of compatibility.

The entire room is impeccably clean, not a speck of dust to be found, and everything is arranged in perfect order. On the adjacent bookshelf, the books are systematically arranged from tall to short, with meticulous attention to detail

"What is more suitable, don't think about it anymore." He Di pulled the blanket for her and said, "Hurry up and sleep, I still need to think about how to explain this to your family."

Why? Zhou Shiyun glanced at her with a hint of doubt in his eyes

Yes, it is, Sister Jinbei

Zhou Shiyun was inherently reserved, and Su Jinbei's phone was with Xiao Wai, so she could only sit idly. Out of sheer boredom, she began to observe the environment of this small office.

With such a shout, the crowd that had gathered to watch reluctantly dispersed

The top three trending topics are: # Su Jinbei Xu Jiawei #, # Su Jinbei Hospital #, # Xu Jiawei Car Accident #

Cough cough... let go. Su Jinbei did not even realize that he had been taken lightly before being grabbed by the collar around his neck. "Hey..."

But in this current situation, she is once again his patient

Zhou Shiyun hung up Lin Qingwei's call and turned to look at her

Zhou Shiyun nodded slightly and got up to open the door

He Di took her phone and said, "You should stop looking at it. It's getting late, so make sure to rest well"

Zhou Shiyun paused for a moment, turned around, and took out the mobile phone from his pocket

"Hey, hey, hey, it's getting interesting," Su Jinbei said discontentedly as he snatched it away. "I was just seeing a blogger say that Xu Jiawei and I are a good match."

Su Jinbei was pushed away by her assistant, and Lin Qingwei asked Zhou Shiyun in a daze, "Undescribable? Senior brother, what undescribable thing did you do?"

Zhou Shiyun lightly furrowed her brows, lowering her gaze to glance at her palm, wondering if this counts

He Di put away her phone, "I know it will be this kind of evaluation even without looking."

Inside the office

Su Jinbei coughed a few more times, and said with a mix of amusement and anger, "Which apology? You touched my chest and almost choked me to death"

Su Jinbei quickly expressed her gratitude, raised her hand to grasp his arm, and staggered towards the small sofa nearby

Lin Qingwei had become immune to Su Jinbei's way of addressing him. Over the past few days, she had always called him that whenever they met.

Su Jinbei pointed down at her feet and said, "I can hardly stand any longer"

"Oh dear, I apologize, I forgot that Dr. Zhou has a bit of a cleanliness obsession." Su Jinbei hopped on one foot to the back of the door, blocking the doorknob, "Dr. Zhou, shall we wait until the reporters leave before opening the door, is that alright"

"Doctor Zhou, please, just don't open the door," Su Jinbei reached out to grasp his hand, trying her best to act coy. However, as soon as she touched his palm, Zhou Shiyun evaded her.

Yes

Zhou Shiyun remained silent; in fact, he was very averse to others entering his office, and even more so to others touching his belongings. When Su Jinbei expressed a desire to sit, his subconscious instinct was to resist.

"Well, I must say I am quite lucky to have the privilege of admiring Dr. Zhou's beauty." Su Jinbei nestled into a comfortable position, raising an eyebrow as she looked at him. This posture resembled the way she teased male celebrities on her show. "Dr. Zhou, with looks like yours, I bet you have many women pursuing you. Tsk, I think you are even more handsome than those male stars."

"Ah, you still don't know, do you?" Lin Qingwei lightly punched him, "There is something fishy going on."

They are all coming for me. If you open the door, they will keep taking pictures with their cameras. Do you know what that means?" Su Jinbei said seriously and solemnly, "It means that I will appear on camera looking like this, subjected to the scrutiny of the entire nation!

Zhou Shiyun also noticed something was amiss, and he quickly withdrew his hand, then swiftly grabbed the back collar of Su Jinbei.

He Di shot her a glance and said, "You two got into a car accident together, and it was late at night. How can you not make a fuss about it"

He Di rested his chin on his hand and said, "Stop looking, I am talking about you being enchanting and seductive, while Xu Jiawei is pure and lovely. You are worlds apart; people think that being with Xu Jiawei is simply tainting her, blatantly so."

According to media reports, Su Jinbei and Xu Jiawei set out together from the hotel for a private meeting at night. They later encountered a car accident and were both sent to the hospital for surgery. Xu Jiawei has been discharged after sustaining minor injuries, while Su Jinbei remains in the hospital for treatment due to serious injuries

Oh dear. Su Jinbei had been standing on one foot for too long, and now she was bouncing around, finally unable to hold on any longer, and it looked like she was about to fall again. Zhou Shiyun's brow furrowed, and he quickly reached out his hand to stop her body once more, but this time... the position was not quite right

Ke Sujinbei her ... ...

Su Jinbei glared at her, "Have you seen it?!"

Outside the door, Lin Qingwei still wanted to stop the reporter's voice, which was abruptly cut off, "... ... Huh?"

Upon hearing Lin Qingwei's shout, Su Jinbei realized that the noise outside had disappeared. Her eyes brightened, "The reporters are gone?!"

"We are, after all, a hospital; if they don't leave, they will really be caught," Lin Qingwei said triumphantly. "After my intimidation and threats, do they dare not to leave?"

It is said that it is no longer inside, this is my senior brother's office

Doctor Zhou, may I lean on you for a moment? I would like to sit over there

Lin Qingwei glanced inside and gave Zhou Shiyun an ambiguous smile, "Senior Brother, be honest, how did this big star end up in your room"

Outside the door, Lin Qingwei and the anxious Xiao Wai were in front, while several curious doctors and nurses with gossiping expressions followed behind them. Zhou Shiyun turned to the side and said, "Help her out."
