Invincible Divine Doctor of the Beautiful Lady-Chapter 666 - 646: Become official

The two of them didn’t realize when they had fallen asleep in each other’s arms there, nor knew when the sunlight had stung their eyes awake; they exchanged glances but didn’t speak, only silently parting before both stood up.

"It’s time to start preparing to leave," Tangyu said.

Huangfu Jingyu nodded, "Indeed, the flight is at nine, and there’s not much time. Let’s go."

With Huangfu Jingyu, Yu Lingtian, Yu Lingyi, and Qing Ge seeing him off, Tangyu boarded the Donglin City-bound plane. After a two-hour flight, he was back in Donglin City. Nobody came to pick him up, as Tangyu hadn’t notified anyone. Leaving the airport, he didn’t head to the office but directly went to Princess Apartments. In the taxi, Tangyu finally called Lin Feifei and Guo Momo to let them know he was back and asked them to come home for lunch. Being back, of course, he had to see his girlfriends first, or they would worry.

By the time Tangyu arrived home, Lin Feifei, Guo Momo, and Zhao Yaya had already returned.

"How come all of you are back? Isn’t it still school time? You didn’t skip classes, did you?" Tangyu said, a bit stunned but touched to see the three welcoming him.

Lin Feifei examined Tangyu from top to bottom to make sure he was neither hurt nor missing anything, then said, "My last period was gym class, so I came back early."

Guo Momo said, "I didn’t have class this morning."

Only Zhao Yaya pouted and weakly said, "Okay, okay, I skipped class. It’s all because of you, my dear brother. I haven’t seen you in days, and hearing you were back, I was just so happy I ran back home—only to realize classes weren’t over yet."

Zhao Yaya’s excuse made Tangyu laugh. But the fact that all three rushed back to greet him warmed his heart; it was only at Princess Apartments that he truly felt at home.

"Do we have groceries? I’ll cook today and make something delicious for you," Tangyu said.

At the mention of delicious food, Zhao Yaya’s eyes instantly lit up, and she began to dance around excitedly, "Yes, yes, there’s a lot. We went shopping yesterday, planning it to last three to five days. Hehe, I want sweet and sour ribs, and cola chicken wings, and—braised pork too."

"Braised pork, huh? Be careful or you’ll turn into a Pikachu," Tangyu teased.

"Hey, Pikachu isn’t fat, okay? It’s Garfield that’s fat. But no matter, we’ll eat first. It’s because the braised pork you make is too delicious, I just have to eat it," Zhao Yaya retorted.

After some playful banter, Tangyu headed to the kitchen to prepare lunch, and Lin Feifei followed to help. Zhao Yaya wanted to join in the fun, but Guo Momo pulled her back, chiding, "Let the young couple get busy, why are you joining the fuss?" which left Zhao Yaya pouting.

After finishing lunch, it was almost time for classes to start, so the three of them headed out to school. After tidying up the house, Tangyu left for the office. Although he no longer worked there, he felt he should at least show up and check in.

Upon Tangyu’s arrival, the office naturally buzzed with excitement. Setting aside Tangyu’s popularity within the company, his now exalted status as the savior of traditional Chinese medicine through the Divine Doctor made everyone look at him with new respect, and he was no longer treated as before. Tangyu was now akin to a major celebrity. Had he not entered the company in a low-key manner, he likely would have been surrounded on the street. Although the Western and Eastern Medicine Exchange conference was a week ago, its influence lingered, and Tangyu’s popularity hadn’t fully waned. On the Internet and TV, topics about him were still plentiful, especially online, where he remained incredibly popular.

It was only because Tangyu made it clear to the media that he wouldn’t accept any form of interviews or appearances that the disturbances from the media had really toned down.

The first person Tangyu checked on was Zhao Xinxin, who happened to be with Liu Shanshan. After greeting them, Tangyu went to Fang Min’s office.

"Oh Tangyu, you’re back!" Fang Min, who was busy, immediately dropped her work and showed a hint of surprise.

Tangyu smiled and said, "Yes, Sister Min, I’m back. I had to make a sudden trip to Capital City; I just got back today. I’m sorry to have made you worry."

Mentioning the worry made the atmosphere somewhat ambiguous.

Fang Min quickly said, "Who’s worried about you? I’m just concerned as a friend."

"Haha, what friend? How come I remember that I’m your boyfriend? Used me then denied me?" Tangyu jokingly said.

This "used me" carried a not-so-light ambiguity. Although Fang Min wasn’t a young girl and didn’t have much experience in love, her cheeks tinged with a light blush, and she glanced at Tangyu, saying, "How come I remember someone insisting on showcasing his acting skills to be my temporary boyfriend? Sorry, but the trial period’s over, so—"

"So I can proudly become official, right?" Tangyu happily said.

"So you’re fired," Fang Min retorted.

Tangyu pursed his lips, "That’s not fair. I did very well during the trial period. If I still get fired, where’s the justice?"

"So what do you want?" Fang Min asked.

Tangyu’s demeanor shifted from playful to serious. Looking at Fang Min, he said, "Be my girlfriend." Tangyu was serious and sincere. The confession to Huangfu Jing last night ended in disappointment, and Tangyu felt he should cherish every woman around him. He didn’t want to experience that pain again. Perhaps he was uncertain before, but now, Tangyu was sure he liked Fang Min. He liked this woman who was a few years older than him, liked this mature and composed woman who sometimes showed a girlish side.

Yes, he liked her. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com

"Ah?" Hearing Tangyu speak so seriously, Fang Min was stunned, her mind suddenly becoming a jumble of confusion. Did she like Tangyu? She had asked herself this question more than once and had never received a clear answer. All she knew was that being with Tangyu felt incredibly special, remarkably good. Now, no matter what happened, she would instinctively think of Tangyu first. At night, when alone, she would always think of him.

Is this, then, love?

It seemed, indeed it was love, she was sure it was love.

It’s just that she could overlook the fact that Tangyu was a few years younger than herself, and she didn’t mind playing the role of an older sister. However, what she couldn’t come to terms with was that Tangyu already had a girlfriend and it was impossible for him to break up with Lin Feifei. If she were to accept his love, what would their relationship be? A third party? A mistress?

She could openly accept Tangyu, but she could not accept such an awkward status.

So, she hesitated. She believed Tangyu was not a fickle person, but how many really can accept being romantic?

"What nonsense are you talking about, what’s all this?" Fang Min retorted softly.

"I’m serious, Sister Min, I truly like you and I know you like me too. I’ve already missed out on Huangfu Jing, and I don’t want to lose you. I don’t know why, but seeing you makes me unable to resist confessing to you, otherwise I feel I would lose you," Tangyu said, a man sometimes inexplicably feels such urges. At that moment, an impulsive desire had grown in his heart.

They say impulse is the devil, but Tangyu didn’t mind being a devil this time.

Fang Min grew even more confused after Tangyu’s declaration, "You already have a girlfriend, how can you say such things to me? What about Lin Feifei? Are you planning to break up with her?"

Fang Min’s words were like a bucket of cold water thrown over him, chilling him from head to toe and extinguishing the flames that had ignited within him.

"Alright, I still have a lot of work to do, you should get busy too. I know you’re busy," Fang Min said, not knowing how to continue grappling with this issue with Tangyu, she decided to send him away.

Tangyu opened his mouth but ultimately stayed silent, only nodding and walking away.

After seeing off Tangyu, Fang Min idly scribbled on her paper as if drawing talismans like a Taoist. Her mind was in turmoil, truly in turmoil. She had indeed not expected Tangyu to confess to her proactively. She had fantasized about it, but never truly thought it would happen. Just now, she had truly been moved, really wanted to agree. But she knew she couldn’t, she couldn’t do it, she couldn’t be so selfish. She had searched her heart, considered every preposterous possibility, even if Lin Feifei could accept sharing Tangyu with her, but could she accept that?

Was she prepared to handle it?

She didn’t know, she was in turmoil. She was no longer a young girl, she had long passed the impulsive teenage phase. Her job had trained her to be cautious, to consider things carefully, which is why she hesitated. If her parents knew about this situation, would they allow her to be with Tangyu?

Faced with such a choice, she truly didn’t know what to choose, so she chose to escape.

"Yo, yo, yo, the sun has risen from the west today, our hero Tangyu has miraculously shown up again. Boss, I’ve missed you so much, come on, give me a hug," as Tangyu entered the office area, Wang Dazhuang was the first to rush towards Tangyu, only to be unceremoniously kicked away by him.

Li Jie and the others also came forward to greet Tangyu, even the three golden flowers greeted Tangyu. Although Tangyu was aware of the three golden flowers’ identities, since they didn’t directly harm anyone, he saw no reason to expose their true selves. After all, having been together for so long, they had developed deep feelings. As long as the three golden flowers weren’t harming anyone’s interests, Tangyu was happy to let them stay.

From Li Jie, Tangyu also found out that his sister Li Xiang no longer had a crush on him. A rebellious teenage girl changes often, which somewhat relieved Tangyu.

After staying in the office area for a few minutes, Tangyu then took his leave.

Just as he was about to leave the company, Liu Shanshan approached him.

"Tangyu, where have you been these past few days, why hasn’t anyone been able to contact you?" Liu Shanshan asked, her tone full of concern and worry.

Tangyu smiled and said, "I went to the Capital City for some important business, I had to leave in a hurry so I didn’t inform anyone. My phone was out of battery there and I couldn’t turn it on, so I couldn’t receive any calls. Don’t worry about me, look, I’m fine."

"Oh, that’s good, then I’ll get back to work. Oh, by the way, are you free tonight?" Liu Shanshan said.

"Tonight? I should be," Tangyu said uncertainly, indeed unsure because he had just come back and still had to go to the hospital; he really couldn’t be sure if he would be free that evening.

"Oh," Liu Shanshan simply responded.

Tangyu said, "Let’s do this, if I’m free tonight, I’ll give you a call."

"Okay, fine," Liu Shanshan nodded, then left.

After seeing off Liu Shanshan, Tangyu also left the company to take over at the hospital.
