745 Repeat After Me
Dr. Ling caught it with ease and came to her side. She put the pillow in her hand and said, "Why don't you just hit until you feel satisfied? I won't move even an inch. I promise!"
With a clenched jaw, Ying looked at the pillow she gave back and continued to glare at it. And just when Dr. Ling thought she won't hit her and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Ying hit the pillow on her head. And when Dr. Ling staggered back a little because of the impact, Ying spoke up, "What? Who said you can move?"
Dr. Ling straightened up and stood there with her head lowered as she allowed Ying to hit her until her breathing became rugged. Seeing how Ying was slowing down, Dr. Ling instantly took the water of bottle from the side and offered it to her saying, "Drink up! Then you can continue."
Ying glared at her hatefully before gritting out, "Do you think this is enough to let me forgive you?"
Dr. Ling shook her head, "I wouldn't dare assume that my hotheaded girlfriend's anger would be gone so easily. But right now, you look a little tired. I'm allowing you to take a break to replenish your strength. I won't run anywhere."
Ying snorted at her reply, "I won't do the mistake of believing again that you won't run away!"
Dr. Ling chuckled at Ying's reaction and pinched her cheeks saying, "Aiyo! Why are you still so cute?" Ying tried to push her away but she didn't budge."I missed you." Ying scoffed disdainfully."Don't scoff like that. I'm being serious."
Ying looked over at Xiao Li and asked, "Why did you bring her here?"
Xiao Li replied, "I didn't bring her here, she just followed me here."
"But what is she doing here?"
"I came to save lives!" Dr. Ling stood right in front of Ying's eyes. Obstructing her view of Xiao Li as she said, "If you have a question, just ask me! Why do you have to ask him? You can't just give him importance over me like before!"
Ying took a deep breath as she looked at that familiar expression on her face. As always she tried to cut between her and Xiao Li. Her excuse was that Ying should not be forgetting friendship for love.
Seeing how Ying wasn't saying anything, Dr. Ling added, "Oh, by the way, a little birdie told me that you have a boyfriend."
Ying deadpanned, "Are you on drugs?"
"No, why?" retorted Dr. Ling.
"How else are you gonna explain talking to little birdies?"
"You know I didn't mean it literally, " said Dr. Ling.
Ying shrugged her shoulders, "When it comes to you, no one can be sure."
"After all, you had a pet hamster you called Liz and even talked to it like it was a little baby, " Xiao Li said from the other side."I definitely won't be surprised if you really started talking to birds now."
"Or should I laugh at you?" asked Ying."The person who calls fish 'meat without feet'?"
"Pfft!" Han Bohai couldn't help himself. He stared at both Dr. Ling and Ying and apologized, "Sorry! That was actually funny."
Dr. Ling didn't seem amused as she replied, "But I wasn't trying to be funny back then. I meant it! Fishes really don't have feet but they have meat to offer! So, why am I not allowed to call them 'meat without feet'?"
Han Bohai listened to her and slid close to Xiao Li, "How did these two become friends?"
"Oh, I can tell you that myself, " said Dr. Ling who somehow heard his low voice."Back in kindergarten, I had a seatmate. She always liked to hang around a guy." As she said it, her eyes squinted at Xiao Li."She never talked to me but she'd do anything to share her toys with that guy. I got annoyed so every day, I stole her lunchbox! Eventually, she had to look at me."
Han Bohai gaped at her and looked at Xiao Li for confirmation who nodded his head and even added, "And she became so used to stealing Ying's lunchbox that it continued till high school."
"Then how did you guys become friends?" Han Bohai really didn't think stealing lunch box would actually work.
Dr. Ling grinned, "After stealing her lunch box, I always shared my own food with her. Food strengthens your body but when it's shared, it strengthens your friendship!"
"Ling Wanwan, " called out Ying and Dr. Ling looked at her."Repeat after me."
Dr. Ling nodded her head and waited but even after a full minute, Ying didn't say a word. So, she asked, "But you aren't saying anything."free𝘄e𝗯nov𝒆l - 🅽🅽novel
"Exactly!" was Ying's reply telling her to shut up!
Even Dr. Ling thought it was not good to push Ying so hard. Her anger won't go down this way, but it might get worse. She knew her limits, after all, she knew Ying for all her childhood. So, she silently looked around. She found her record file and read through it. Even came to look at her knee which was wrapped in gauze.
Ying didn't pay any attention to her and asked Xiao Li, "How are Xiu and Regi?"
"They are fine, " replied Xiao Li."Dad said you should go home. He doesn't want anyone to stay in the hospital. I've arranged everything for Xiu. But I have to wait for a couple of hours before moving Regan."
"Where is Zizi?" asked Ying.
"Where do you think he is?" retorted Xiao Li."Obviously, he is the one taking Xiu home. He doesn't trust anyone right now."
Ying pressed her lips together and lowered her head feeling guilty. Xiao Li shook his head at her, "Stop it! It's not your fault. Just get well soon."
