Around noon, Ye Wan received a call from Jin Lan, who complained that he couldn't find any shops in the entire capital that could make custom silver jewelry for a ring, as all of them were closed.
Ye Wan responded with a question mark. She found it hard to believe, wondering if Gu Yunting was behind it. Did he close all the silver jewelry shops to prevent others from making similar rings?
"That handsome doctor's call? Ye Wan, what kind of brother is he?" Ning Xin asked curiously.
"Splat!" Jiang Yan's chopsticks dropped a piece of pork rib onto the table. Both of them looked at her.
"These chopsticks are a bit difficult to use today, they don't seem very straight," Jiang Yan explained awkwardly, then lowered her head to continue eating. She felt a headache coming on whenever Jin Lan was mentioned.
"Doctor Jin is just a brother who is very good to me. In reality, we don't have much of a relationship, but he is a truly kind person." Ye Wan felt that anyone who became Jin Lan's girlfriend would be very happy. In her eyes, Jin Lan was considerate, gentle, and romantic, and the doctor profession was a significant bonus. He was an ideal boyfriend.
"How come I don't feel that? I think he has no professional ethics at all! A doctor? He's a terrible person!" Jiang Yan couldn't stand Ye Wan praising that beast so highly.
"No, brother Jin Lan is a renowned doctor at their hospital. People have to wait a long time to see him, and he only has clinic hours once or twice a week. His appointments are highly sought after," Ye Wan explained.
"Jiang Yan, do you have any past grievances with Doctor Jin?" Ning Xin asked.
"Ha, what grievances could I possibly have with him? I don't know him at all!" Jiang Yan retorted dramatically.
Ye Wan...
Ning Xin...
It sounded a bit like a confession.
"Ye Wan, does Doctor Jin have a girlfriend? If you two don't like him, do you think I have a chance?" Ning Xin had a good first impression of Jin Lan, and after hearing Ye Wan describe his character, she became even more interested.
Who wouldn't want a high-quality man?
"He doesn't have a girlfriend. I can't say for sure if you have a chance. If you want to know, you could have a meal together and get to know him better." Ye Wan felt that matters of the heart were truly hard to predict, and she couldn't make any guarantees.
"Alright! I'll treat, you arrange it." Ning Xin genuinely felt Jin Lan was a good person. She hadn't met a more outstanding man in her twenty-plus years.
"No, I disagree!" Jiang Yan felt Ye Wan was being deceived by Jin Lan. He had terrible character and was far from a good match.
"Why? Do you like him too?" Ning Xin asked, looking at her.
"Ha, I'd rather like a pig than like him!" Jiang Yan slapped her own mouth after saying that, realizing she had just insulted Chu Yu.
"What I mean is, he is my boyfriend's uncle. If you end up with him, I'd have to call you Auntie, and I'd be a generation younger for no reason. I don't agree!" Jiang Yan declared resolutely.
"Really? There's that connection? Then I really must marry Doctor Jin, so I can hear you call me Auntie." Ning Xin teased her intentionally.
"You're asking for a beating!"
Ye Wan shook her head, watching them joke, and continued eating.
Ning Xin's phone rang, and she went to answer it. Jiang Yan truly didn't want Ning Xin to get together with Jin Lan, but she also knew she couldn't control matters of the heart... The relationships were becoming increasingly complicated.
Ye Wan picked up a piece of glistening pork belly and gave it to Jiang Yan. "Don't be angry, eat more meat. Your favorite pork belly."
Jiang Yan huffily picked up the meat and put it in her mouth. But as soon as she started chewing, she felt a wave of intense nausea. The pork belly, which had always been incredibly delicious to her, now felt like poison. She immediately vomited and got up to run out of the restaurant.
