Seeing that her roommate was unwilling to participate, Xie Qiao could only drag Yang Cheng along. Although Yang Cheng reluctantly bought one, he didn't eat pancakes at all, so he held it in his hand, unsure of what to do with it.

Just then, Wang Ying and Xu Lin also came to the cafeteria for lunch.

"Wang Ying, here, have this."

Wang Ying glanced at it and said, "Thank you, but I don't eat this flavor. You said you don't eat it either, so why did you buy this flavor?"

"This was supposed to be to support the business, but who would have thought they'd give me this?"

Zhao Shucheng suddenly received a call from an employee saying that someone had come to his door looking for him and hoped that Zhao Shucheng could deal with it quickly.

When Zhao Shucheng arrived at the milk tea shop, he discovered that his former roommate from abroad, Chen Baojia, had actually come.

"Baojia, what brings you here?"

"Chuan Chuan, Chuan Chuan, it's been a long time!"

"You still haven't told me why you're here."

Chen Baojia said, "It's spring break, so I came to the mainland to visit relatives."

"Where did you get this relative from?"

“You!” Chen Baojia said, putting her arm around Zhao Shucheng’s arm.
“You said in your email that you have started your own business and will be able to pay off your debts soon, so I came to see you.”

Wang Ying arrived at the milk tea shop at this moment and saw Zhao Shucheng being intimately linked arm in arm with a girl. She immediately stopped in her tracks, unsure whether she should go over.

When Zhao Shucheng saw Wang Ying, it was as if he had seen a savior. He said, "Wang Ying, you've come at the right time. My classmate and roommate abroad, could you help me make some arrangements?"

Chen Baojia looked at Wang Ying and asked, "Chuan Chuan, who is this? Could this be your childhood sweetheart Xie Qiao? He doesn't look like much."

Zhao Shucheng said, "Baojia, didn't you hear me just now? Wang Ying, Xie Qiao's roommate, is also my good friend."

"Oh, my good friend, hello, I'm Chen Baojia, from Taiwan, and I'm Chuan Chuan's girlfriend."

Zhao Shucheng shook his head and gave Wang Ying a wry smile.

Wang Ying could tell that Chen Baojia was hostile towards all the girls around Zhao Shucheng because he liked him.

“Baojia, is that right? Qin Chuan still has work to do here, and you haven’t settled in yet. Let me take you to the hotel to check in.”

"No, I want to stay with Chuan Chuan."

"It's inconvenient for you to come with me; I have work to do."

Hearing Zhao Shucheng say this, Chen Baojia smiled and said, "It's okay, I just need to stay by your side. Don't worry, I promise I won't say a word and won't bother you."

"That won't do either. You haven't even put your luggage down yet, so go with Wang Ying to check in first. I'll treat you to a welcome dinner tonight."

Seeing Zhao Shucheng's resolute attitude, Chen Baojia could only say, "Alright then, but you can't go back on your word this time. I'll call you."

"understood!"

After checking into a hotel near the school with Wang Ying, Chen Baojia didn't stay to rest. Instead, she pestered Wang Ying, saying she wanted to visit the school, but in reality, she wanted Wang Ying to take her to meet Xie Qiao. She wanted to see what made Xie Qiao better than her, that made Zhao Shucheng give up his studies for her and even insist on returning to China despite her repeated attempts to persuade him to stay.

When Xie Qiao first saw Wang Ying with a girl, she was actually a little curious. But when she heard that the girl was Zhao Shucheng's classmate who had flown all the way to visit Zhao Shucheng, she immediately felt uneasy.

Especially when she heard Chen Baojia talking about Zhao Shucheng, she always used the "chuanchuan" sound, which made her feel even more awkward.

"If I had known that Chuan Chuan would still be a chef when he came back, I would have listened to me and stayed to continue his studies."

"Hehe, that's still better than going back and being harassed by people for no reason, right?"

Chen Baojia said, "Some people really do look like they have no manners."

"Yes, unlike some people who only know how to act cute."

"Some people should have self-awareness and look in the mirror more often, otherwise they won't realize that they have a face that can't be cute."

"But someone has to know when to stop, otherwise it's no use to keep acting cute."

"Xie Qiao!"

"What's wrong, Chen Baojia?"

Wang Ying watched the two of them go back and forth, and it was only because Zhao Shucheng wasn't there; if he were, the battle would have been much more intense.

Just as she was about to step forward to stop the two from continuing their fight, she suddenly felt an unbearable abdominal pain and squatted down, clutching her stomach.

Xie Qiao and Chen Baojia stopped arguing and quickly helped Wang Ying up to ask about the situation.

Seeing that Xie Qiao was only asking questions, Chen Baojia took out her phone and called Zhao Shucheng, telling him that Wang Ying had suddenly fallen ill and asking what should be done.

Zhao Shucheng told them to help Wang Ying sit by the roadside and wait, while he drove straight to the campus.

"Wang Ying, how are you?"

"I have a stomach ache."

"Get in the car quickly, Xie Qiao, Bao Jia, you guys..."

"Let's go together, more people means more help."

Zhao Shucheng nodded, and after letting them get in the car, he immediately drove to the nearest hospital.

In fact, Zhao Shucheng had already figured out that Wang Ying had acute appendicitis. Although he could treat it with traditional Chinese medicine, he didn't have any acupuncture needles with him and had never been exposed to medicine in this world, so he could only send her to the hospital first.

After arriving at the hospital, the doctor examined the patient and confirmed that it was acute appendicitis, requiring immediate surgery.

When Xie Qiao saw Wang Ying being wheeled into the operating room, she quickly called Xu Lin and Xiao Qianxi in the dormitory to tell them that Wang Ying was sick and hospitalized.

After hesitating for a moment, she called Yang Cheng again, told him about Wang Ying's situation, and hoped that he could contact Wang Ying's parents.

Upon hearing the news, Yang Cheng rushed to the hospital. Seeing Zhao Shucheng, he immediately tried to punch and kick him. Zhao Shucheng, however, wasn't about to let Yang Cheng get away with it. He quickly grabbed Yang Cheng, pinned him against the wall, and asked, "Are you crazy?"

"I'm not crazy. What the hell is your milk tea? Is it even clean? If anything happens to Wang Ying, I'll never forgive you!"

Zhao Shucheng glanced at Yang Cheng, who was still angry, and said, "Can you stop being so unreasonable? What does Wang Ying's illness have to do with my milk tea? Wang Ying didn't drink any milk tea today. You're not going to tell me that the milk tea from a few days ago is now causing side effects, are you?"

"Who knows if it's true? Maybe you're shirking responsibility. If I find out that Wang Ying's illness is related to your milk tea, you can expect to go out of business."

Zhao Shucheng glanced at Yang Cheng and said, "Is that so? Then I'll really be watching. But shouldn't you be most concerned about Wang Ying's specific situation right now?"

Xie Qiao also pulled Yang Cheng aside, making Zhao Shucheng let go of him, and said, "Alright, you two stop arguing, Wang Ying is still in surgery inside."

Chen Baojia walked to Zhao Shucheng's side, took his arm, and said, "How rude, Chuan Chuan. Why don't you come abroad with me? You can blame it on me for not drinking the milk tea. Who knows what would have happened if you had?"

Zhao Shucheng said, "Baojia, stop making things worse."

A short while later, Wang Ying's mother arrived at the hospital. Wang Ying had just finished her surgery and was immediately taken to her ward, where her mother launched into a tirade. She criticized Wang Ying for eating indiscriminately outside, and for not taking care of herself, among other things.

Wang Ying, having been scolded to no avail, and Zhao Shucheng, not wanting to stay any longer, said, "Wang Ying, you should rest well. We'll head back now. Oh, and here's your phone number; call us anytime if you need anything."

"it is good!"

Wang Ying looked at Zhao Shucheng, who was being dragged away by Chen Baojia, with a deep look in her eyes.

Chen Baojia originally thought her opponent was Xie Qiao, but she was overjoyed to find out that the person who almost got into a fight with Zhao Shucheng was actually Xie Qiao's boyfriend.

Although Wang Ying, who is hospitalized, seems to have a good relationship with Zhao Shucheng, I can say that we are competing fairly now, and I believe that I will be able to win him over sooner or later.

This time, Chen Baojia had no one else with Zhao Shucheng, so she stayed by his side closely.

Zhao Shucheng was extremely annoyed by this, as it would interfere with a lot of his work, and he didn't want someone following him around all the time.

“Baojia, now that you’ve come to the capital, you must want to see this beautiful land. I’ll have someone show you around. I still have some work to take care of here. Once I’m done, I’ll personally take you sightseeing, how about that?”

"No, Chuan Chuan, I just want to stay by your side. Don't worry, I definitely won't bother you. I promise I'll stay still like a doll. Besides, you and Xie Qiao didn't end up together, so doesn't that mean I still have a chance?"

Zhao Shucheng didn't believe Chen Baojia's assurances and didn't answer her questions. However, he couldn't really force her to leave, so he could only take her to the company and let her stay in the meeting room while he continued with his work.

The next day.

Zhao Shucheng came to the hospital to visit Wang Ying, but Chen Baojia insisted on coming along.

Xie Qiao and Xu Lin happened to be there as well, so Chen Baojia immediately assumed the identity of Zhao Shucheng's girlfriend. She said:
"Hello, I'm Chuan Chuan's girlfriend, Chen Baojia. Wow, this is a private room! Are you alright? It's nothing serious, appendicitis is nothing."

The others stared in disbelief at the overly friendly Chen Baojia, who shook hands with Wang Ying and then greeted the others with a smile.

"Hello, your name is Yang Cheng, right? I never expected you to be Xie Qiao's boyfriend."

Yang Cheng said, "You and Qin Chuan are quite a good match."

"Right, Chuan Chuan? Look, everyone says so. We must look like a married couple."

Zhao Shucheng said helplessly, "Baojia, can you stop talking nonsense? How many times have I told you, girls should be reserved, reserved!"

As he spoke, Zhao Shucheng turned to look at Wang Ying and said, "Wang Ying, I hope you recover soon. These are flowers for you!"

"Thank you!"

Wang Ying, watching Chen Baojia still pestering Zhao Shucheng, couldn't help but say, "Why don't you ask Qin Chuan if he has a girlfriend?"

Does he have a girlfriend? Who is she?

Wang Ying said, "Me!"

The others were stunned when they heard this, staring at Wang Ying and then at Zhao Shucheng in disbelief.

Zhao Shucheng smiled and pushed Chen Baojia's hand away, saying, "That's right, Wang Ying is my girlfriend. I kept it a secret from everyone before because I didn't want too many people to know. After all, my career is just starting out, and I don't want people to think that I'm a kept man."

Wang Ying didn't expect Zhao Shucheng to be so opportunistic; as soon as she opened her mouth, he had already given a new explanation for the relationship.

Zhao Shucheng walked to Wang Ying's side, pretending to help arrange the flowers, but whispered in Wang Ying's ear: "Miss, you admitted it yourself. I pursued you before, but you never agreed. Now I'll take that as a yes."

Wang Ying wanted to say something in a low voice, but Zhao Shucheng stood up and said, "Now that everyone knows, please keep it a secret. I hope to tell Wang Ying's parents after we've achieved something, so they can agree to our relationship."

Yang Cheng looked at Wang Ying in disbelief and said, "Wang Ying, are you really sure you want to be with him? You two are not a good match?"

"I know, but what I like about Qin Chuan is you as a person, and I also believe that Qin Chuan will achieve great things in the future, and he will definitely amaze everyone."

The others immediately felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so they all said goodbye and left.

Since Zhao Shucheng was already Wang Ying's boyfriend, it was naturally his responsibility to take care of her. Chen Baojia never expected that even though she had come to the capital, she was still a step too late; Zhao Shucheng hadn't gotten together with Xie Qiao, but had found another girlfriend.

She wasn't the type to be persistent, so she took a taxi back to the hotel and started thinking about her return trip.

Yang Cheng led Xie Qiao and the others back to school. On the way, Xu Lin still couldn't accept it and said:
"What's going on? How did Wang Ying suddenly become Qin Chuan's girlfriend?"

Yang Cheng said, "How could Wang Ying be with Qin Chuan? Does he deserve her? What do Wang Ying's family do, and what do Qin Chuan's family do? They're worlds apart. If Wang Ying's family knew about this, they would immediately make her transfer to another school."

Xu Lin asked, "Is it that serious?"

“Nonsense, if it's just for fun, that's fine, but if it's serious, I won't be able to get past my family. Wang Ying always asks me why I don't take it seriously, because if I did, I wouldn't be able to make the decision myself.”

Xie Qiao had been in shock when she overheard Yang Cheng's words. She immediately realized that she wasn't special to Yang Cheng, and that one day in the future, she would also face a breakup, and that the breakup would be unilaterally announced by him.

Xu Lin coughed and said, "Qiao Qiao, would you like to come with me to photocopy my reading notes in a little while?"

Yang Cheng realized what was happening and, seeing Xie Qiao still sitting next to him, said, "I was talking about Wang Ying, not myself."

Xie Qiao hummed in response, but didn't seem inclined to continue the conversation, her thoughts seemingly lost in thought.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere in the car, Xu Lin immediately realized he shouldn't have gone with them in the first place; he should have just taken the bus back to school alone. (End of Chapter)
