Chapter 832: Chapter 834: Up to No Good

Wang Ying didn’t ask him what exactly happened, she simply started speaking: "Every time it’s my shift to rest, I come here to sit for a while. In this hospital, every day, only these few short minutes truly belong to me."

"During this time, I don’t belong to the hospital, nor to my family. I belong only to myself. I can briefly forget those patients with pain in their eyes. After truly becoming a nurse, I realized that I don’t sincerely like this profession as a nurse."

"I finally understood that I simply liked the pure appearance of someone dressed in a white nurse’s uniform, like an angel from the sky. But now I find out it’s not like that at all, especially when you see so many people painfully leave this world, and you are powerless. You will feel that all the things in this world are illusory, and there’s nothing we can control in this world."

At that moment, Wang Ying looked so sad, Zheng Qiang noticed that Wang Ying was such a pessimistic person. The emotion of pessimism is something everyone has more or less, but some people hide it deeper, and ordinary people can’t see it, or it can only be seen at certain times.

Zheng Qiang also said: "Actually, it’s the same for doctors. Every time I see those patients full of desire to survive die on the operating table, I feel very bad too. But after experiencing such things so many times, you become numb. You will get used to it, in a few months, you’ll turn a blind eye to such things."

"I hope so, I’ve been on the verge of collapse these few months. Can you give me a cigarette? I rushed up here in such a hurry, I forgot to bring any." Wang Ying said, extending a hand towards Zheng Qiang for a cigarette.

Zheng Qiang took out a cigarette, handed it to her, and also lit it for her, then said: "It’s better to smoke less, especially for girls."

"I’m much better now, just one a day, I’m already trying my best to control it. Back in college, I smoked like crazy; I could finish a pack in two days. I don’t know what was wrong with me then. I was anxious every day, only when smoking did I feel a little better." Wang Ying said, looking at the distant skyscrapers.

"It’s about time, should we head down?" Wang Ying reminded, "Is this your first time here? Why have I never seen you here before?"

"Yes, it’s my first time. I discovered this great place by chance. Maybe you’ll see me here often in the future." Zheng Qiang explained.

After they finished their cigarettes and came down from the rooftop, they both felt a bit better. They said goodbye at the stairway and went their separate ways to their offices.

After they parted, Wang Ying’s image lingered in Zheng Qiang’s mind, and he felt that the sadness emanating from her was heart-wrenching. Yet she usually appeared so bright. Sometimes, when he saw her smile at the patients, that bright smile was like that of an angel.

So in reality, she was suited to be a nurse. At least in the eyes of outsiders, she had already done a great job.

After work, Xiao Yifei wanted to find Zheng Qiang to ask about the situation because he knew that after he left, there would definitely be a dispute between the two brothers. He felt a bit guilty towards Zheng Qiang. By chance, the two met in the hall.

"Are you and your brother okay?" Xiao Yifei asked as soon as he saw Zheng Qiang.

"It’s nothing. My brother and I have always been like this. We often argue over trivial matters, I’m used to it. Sometimes it feels strange when we don’t argue. You know the gap between us is quite big." Zheng Qiang didn’t want Xiao Yifei to have a psychological burden, so he downplayed the issue.

"As long as it’s nothing serious, do you want to grab a meal together?" Xiao Yifei asked. He already knew from last time that Zheng Qiang lived alone, and had to cook for himself when he went home. It seemed his own life was much better than Zheng Qiang’s. He used to go home and enjoy all sorts of delicious meals Tang Rong made, and Tang Rong was a decent cook.

So he suddenly suggested: "Why don’t you come over to my place for a meal? My landlord is a fantastic cook."

Zheng Qiang didn’t refuse either. When he got home in the evening, he was generally too lazy to cook. Sometimes he would just order take-out, and if he wasn’t very hungry, he would just eat a little to get by.

Xiao Yifei sent a message to Tang Rong saying that a friend of his would be coming over for dinner, and hoped she could prepare a bit more food. He also sent a flattering emoji. Nowadays, emojis are universal, solving many difficult-to-articulate problems.

When Xiao Yifei and Zheng Qiang arrived home, Tang Rong had almost finished preparing dinner; it was a bit more lavish than usual. Zheng Qiang looked at the table full of good food and quietly said to Xiao Yifei, "Xiao Ge, you sure are blessed. And to have such a beautiful person cooking for you."

"She’s my landlord, and to repay her kindness of cooking, I buy all the ingredients for the meals. But really, Tang Rong’s cooking is genuinely delicious." Xiao Yifei responded proudly.

"Yeah, how come you’re so lucky? Seeing how nice this place is, I almost want to move in here too. Are there any rooms available?" Zheng Qiang genuinely felt a bit envious.

"If you don’t mind, you can stay in the living room." Xiao Yifei joked.

Tang Rong walked over, seeing them both laughing heartily, she asked: "Are you talking bad about me? Laughing so happily."

"Sister Rong, I just found you a new tenant. He said he’s too envious of me having such a good landlord, and hopes you can rent him the living room." Xiao Yifei said with a big smile.

Zheng Peng, lately, pondered every day about how to make Xiao Yifei look bad. Since Xiao Yifei came to this hospital, his own luck hadn’t been good. First, because of him, he almost lost his job. Now, again because of him, his own brother decided to break ties with him. What was it about Xiao Yifei that made his brother so unwaveringly support him?

Sun Xingyao couldn’t stand Xiao Yifei either, considering him a thorn in his side. As long as he remained, peace was out of reach. But now, Sun Xingyao no longer went to Zheng Peng for help. He thought Zheng Peng was too foolish, never successfully handling anything.

Of course, Zheng Peng would no longer go to Sun Xingyao either. People who blame others when things go wrong, it’s better to keep distance from them. Last time, Sun Xingyao pinned all the blame on him, pretending he was completely innocent.

This day, Zheng Peng ate alone in the cafeteria, overhearing some doctors at the next table whispering about how they disliked Xiao Yifei and similar topics.

Zheng Peng seized the opportunity, taking his meal and sitting with those three doctors.

"I’ve heard everything you three were saying. Since you dislike Xiao Yifei so much, do you have any good ideas to deal with him..." Zheng Peng bluntly asked as he sat beside them.

Such matters, those three wouldn’t casually discuss. Even if they had good ideas, they wouldn’t tell Zheng Peng in such a place, even though they knew he was probably the most resentful towards Xiao Yifei in this hospital.

Zheng Peng saw they weren’t speaking, mistakenly thinking they were cowardly and hesitant to take action. So, he adopted a boss-like demeanor and said: "Since we’re of like mind, why don’t we plan together?"
