Top-tier celebrity's nightly pampering, the abstinent doctor loses control and spoils her.

The atmosphere inside the private room was lively.

Liao Xubai quietly looked at Song Jingmo and Lu Er, who were sitting side by side in the main seat.

Lu Er had just been forced to drink a glass of juice by the crowd, and now she was leaning on Song Jingmo's shoulder with a slightly flushed face, complaining softly about something.

Song Jingmo listened with a faint smile on his lips, casually brushing a few stray hairs from the other person's forehead behind their ear.

The gestures were natural and intimate, as if they had been done a thousand times.

He understood completely.

It's not that he's not good enough, nor that he didn't try hard enough.

Rather, it's the order in which people appear in our lives that has already been written in the script.

Lu Er entered Song Jingmo's heart during high school. At that age, when young people are full of vigor and ambition, once they fall in love, it lasts a lifetime.

So later people, no matter how hard they try or how much they accompany their children, are just trying to add a stroke to a painting that has already been completed.

No matter how careful you are, it will only seem out of place.

Liao Xubai recalled his years abroad.

Song Jingmo always keeps to himself and rejects any possibility of ambiguity.

When someone jokingly asked Song Jingmo if she had someone in her heart, Song Jingmo never denied it.

At that time, he believed that time could change everything.

He stayed up late with Song Jingmo doing experiments.

She stayed up all night to take care of Song Jingmo when he had a food allergy.

But it turns out that someone already had someone in their heart, and no one who came later could even get through the door.

Liao Xubai tilted his head back and drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.

Yeah.

Say goodbye to the past completely.

Liao Xubai thought.

At least we no longer have to cling to hopeless expectations and keep hitting a brick wall.

Dr. Liu: "Come on, come on, the cake is here!"

The waiter pushed in an exquisite two-tiered cake, its cream pristine white.

It's garnished with blueberries and mint leaves, and the top layer is decorated with chocolate sauce that says "Happy Birthday".

"Director Song, let's make a wish!" The head nurse led the chant.

Song Jingmo was pushed in front of the cake, the candlelight flickering, illuminating his deep-set eyes and brows.

With her eyes closed, her long eyelashes cast a small shadow beneath them.

A few seconds later, she opened her eyes and blew out the candle.

"What did you wish for, Director Song?" Tang Lan asked gossipy.

Song Jingmo smiled but didn't answer. He simply took the knife, pulled Lu Er's hand, and they both gripped the handle.

A few "clicks" were heard, and someone took a picture.

Lu Er felt a little embarrassed and tried to pull her hand away, but Song Jingmo held it firmly.

"What are you hiding from?"

Song Jingmo whispered in someone's ear, "It's only natural for a boyfriend to help cut the cake."

Lu Er's ears turned red, and she muttered softly, "So many people are watching..."

"Then let them see."

Song Jingmo raised an eyebrow and deliberately leaned closer, "I wish I could announce it to the whole world."

The voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for a few people nearby to hear.

Dr. Liu immediately exclaimed, "Oh my goodness, Director Song is really showing off their affection!"

Lu Er blushed even more and quickly cut off a piece of cake and stuffed it into Song Jingmo's mouth: "Eat your cake and don't talk."

Song Jingmo's mouth was stuffed full, but he wasn't annoyed and chewed slowly and methodically.

After swallowing, she leaned close to Lu Er's ear and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "It wasn't as good as last night's."

Lu Er was taken aback: "We ordered from the same store, and even the sugar level was set to your usual 70% sweetness, how could it be different?"

Song Jingmo's lips curled into a meaningful smile, and he glanced down at the table: "Wrong position."

"What location...?"

Lu Er stopped mid-sentence.

Last night, Song Jingmo smeared cream on his collarbone, chest, and lower abdomen...

His whole body was covered in cake.

It was Song Jingmo who bent down and licked it off little by little.

It took several hours to finish the cake.

"you!"

Lu Er's face instantly turned bright red, the blush spreading from her cheeks to her neck, making her look like a ripe apple under the warm yellow light of the private room.

She glared at Song Jingmo with a mixture of embarrassment and annoyance, but the tears in her eyes made her look less intimidating and more like she was being coquettish.

Song Jingmo chuckled softly and took another bite of cake in a great mood.

Lu Er walked over to Liao Xubai and handed him a piece of cake.

With sincere eyes: "I wish you find your own happiness soon."

"That time at the hospital, he had a fever and called out your name."

Liao Xubai's voice carried a weary tone, as if the dust had settled. "I'm not saying this to make you feel guilty."

As she spoke, she looked at Song Jingmo, the lines of her profile appearing particularly soft under the warm yellow light. "I just wanted to tell you that he loves you very much, and you two... are a good match."

When Liao Xubai said this, he was stunned for a moment.

So this is what it feels like to be relieved; it's not the ecstatic joy of liberation.

It's a quiet weariness, like finally being able to stop and rest after walking a long way, and appreciate the scenery that was overlooked along the way.

Lu Er nodded solemnly, "Thank you, Dr. Liao."

Soon, Song Jingmo came looking for him.

A pair of hands wrapped around Lu Er's waist from behind, and warm breath brushed against her ear: "What are you talking about?"

Lu Er leaned comfortably into Song Jingmo's arms. "Let's talk about you. What were you talking about with Dr. Liu just now?"

"Dr. Liu insisted on teaching me some secrets to keeping love fresh."

Song Jingmo's voice was tinged with laughter, "It's giving me a headache."

The banquet continued, filled with laughter and joy.

Around 9 o'clock, Lu Er checked the time and whispered, "I should go to the airport; I have a shoot early tomorrow morning."

Song Jingmo nodded, stood up and said to everyone, "I'll take Er'er to the airport. Everyone, continue having fun. I've already paid the bill."

"You're leaving already?"

Tang Lan said with some regret, "I was thinking of going to sing later."

Dr. Liu was very understanding: "Alright, alright, they have work tomorrow, let's not delay their business."

Everyone got up and saw the two to the door.

As soon as Leng Keyan stepped out of the private room, her phone rang.

After only a few words, his expression turned serious: "Okay, I'll go back right away."

After hanging up the phone, he said to everyone, "The emergency room is short-staffed, so I need to go back and fill in."

"Do you have something to do so late?"

"Yes, the doctors on duty tonight are too busy."

Leng Keyan hurriedly put on her coat.

The group left the restaurant and said goodbye at the entrance.

Lu Er rolled down the car window and waved to the crowd, and the car quickly merged into the traffic.

Dr. Liu asked, "Are you really going to sing karaoke?"

"Forget it, we still have two surgeries tomorrow."

The head nurse yawned. "Go home and get some sleep."

Everyone took taxis and went their separate ways.

Leng Keyan stood by the roadside waiting for a car; the night wind carried a chill.

I had just taken out my phone to call a car when I heard familiar footsteps behind me.

Looking back, Yin Siyao also came out.

"Teacher Yin?" Leng Keyan was somewhat surprised.

"Um."

Yin Siyao gave a brief reply and stood next to Leng Keyan. "Call a car?"

"Yes, back to the hospital."

Leng Keyan asked casually, "Aren't you going home to rest?"

Yin Siyao glanced at her phone; the screen's light reflected on her face, making her look very gentle. "Dr. Luo from the ER is on wedding leave and needs me to cover for him for a week."

"oh······"

Leng Keyan nodded, a strange sense of anticipation welling up inside her. "Did you come here specifically to help?"

The emergency department is so busy, is Yin Siyao's willingness to cover for him a little bit... out of concern for him?

Yin Siyao looked up and glanced at the person: "Double wages."
