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

Leng Keyan took the water, turned it on, and gulped down several mouthfuls. The water slid down her Adam's apple and into the sweat-soaked collar of her jersey.

After drinking his fill, he sighed contentedly and looked at Yin Siyao with his moist eyes: "Teacher Yin's water is especially sweet."

Yin Siyao felt a little uncomfortable being stared at and turned her face away: "Stop being so frivolous, go change your clothes. You're covered in sweat, you're filthy."

"Don't you dare dislike me."

After Leng Keyan finished acting cute, she turned and ran towards the locker room, not forgetting to turn back and wink at Yin Siyao, "Wait for me, I'll be there soon."

The two went to the school cafeteria for a simple dinner.

During the meal, Yin Siyao put down her chopsticks and looked at Leng Keyan across from her, who was carefully picking out the shredded carrots from the green vegetables.

"You're about to graduate with your bachelor's degree. Do you have any specific plans for the future?"

Yin Siyao asked casually, but her eyes were serious, "Have you considered studying abroad?"

With Leng Keyan's academic achievements and family background, applying to top medical schools abroad for graduate studies or PhD programs would be no problem at all.

Upon hearing this, Leng Keyan didn't even pause in picking up food, shaking her head vigorously like a rattle-drum: "No, I don't want to go abroad."

She dismissively pushed the shredded carrots she had picked out aside, saying matter-of-factly, "I've already decided. After graduating with my bachelor's degree, I'll pursue a master's degree at University A, and then go straight to a PhD program."

"I'll go straight to Kangren after graduation. Why go abroad? I'll be in a completely unfamiliar place, and I won't be used to the food."

Yin Siyao felt a warmth in her heart when she saw the person's "I'm going to stay here forever" attitude, but she was also a little worried.

Carefully choosing his words: "Studying abroad is not just about getting a diploma. The medical systems, research environments, and technologies and concepts in certain niche fields abroad are indeed among the most advanced in the world."

"Going out to see the world, broadening your horizons, and getting in touch with cutting-edge things will greatly benefit your future development."

She paused, her voice carrying a hint of melancholy she herself was unaware of, "Back then, I couldn't go out because of limited resources."

"You have the qualifications and ability, you shouldn't easily give up such a good opportunity, and you shouldn't give up a better platform for development because of me."

He was genuinely concerned about Leng Keyan's future.

This young man is smart, talented, and has resources; he deserves to stand on a broader stage.

Leng Keyan finally stopped struggling with the carrot shreds, raised her head, and looked at Yin Siyao seriously.

"Teacher Yin, what you're saying isn't right."

Leng Keyan put down her chopsticks and sat up straighter. "It's precisely because my family is well-off, with no shortage of money or resources, that I can be more willful."

"I can choose the path I want to take and do what I truly love. Besides, I have no interest in studying abroad to gain prestige."

"I just want to stay in City A, in Kangren, and by your side. The medical school at University A is top-notch; what I learn there is more than enough for me to use for the rest of my life."

"I think pursuing a master's and doctoral degree at University A, under your and Professor Song's guidance, is more meaningful than going to any prestigious university abroad. I'd rather settle down as soon as possible and have my own life and home."

Yin Siyao listened in silence, envying Leng Keyan's composure and determination stemming from having choices.

But he still felt that young people should go out and explore more.

"Jingmo studied abroad back then."

Yin Siyao cited an example: "Many of his treatment concepts and surgical techniques incorporate advanced foreign experience. It's never a bad thing to learn more."

Leng Keyan smiled when Song Jingmo was mentioned.

"Teacher Yin, you're mistaken. Teacher Song's main reason for going abroad back then wasn't for further studies."

"He was heartbroken by his uncle's actions back then, so he ran away to lick his wounds alone and took the opportunity to get some experience to pass the time and distract himself."

"If you don't believe me, ask Teacher Song. If my uncle had been with him when we graduated, would he still have so readily gone abroad alone and stayed there for so many years?"

Yin Siyao was momentarily speechless.

Leng Keyan's tone softened, tinged with a mix of coquetry and stubbornness: "Anyway, I don't want to go. No matter how good foreign countries are, without you, they mean nothing to me."

"Teacher Yin, please don't worry about that. You are the most important part of my future plans. Wherever you are, that's where my bright future lies."

Yin Siyao was speechless for a moment, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

I was moved by their unwavering choice, but also felt guilty for potentially hindering their future.

There was also a hidden, selfish urge to keep people from leaving.

In the end, all I could do was sigh and say, "Fine, it's your own path, you decide for yourself. Just don't regret it later."

"regret?"

Leng Keyan picked up her chopsticks again and placed a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs, which Yin Siyao liked, into his bowl.

"If I had actually listened to you and gone abroad, and returned years later to find my wife had run off with someone else, I would have truly regretted it so much I would have banged my head against the wall."

"All he does every day is talk nonsense."

Yin Siyao blushed at the person's unrestrained words and glared at them.

Leng Keyan, biting the tip of her chopsticks, suddenly thought of something and asked, "Teacher Yin, why are you suddenly asking me this... is it because you yourself want to pursue further studies abroad?"

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed, and his eyes lit up. "If you want to study abroad, or be a visiting scholar or something, then I'll apply to study at a school in that country too."

"Anyway, as long as I can be with you, I'm fine with studying anywhere. I'll study for as long as you're there—perfect!"

Yin Siyao was both amused and exasperated by these words, and her heart was also stirred by the phrase "I'll go wherever you go."

"I graduated many years ago and even became the head of a department at Kangren. Further studies would just be icing on the cake, adding a few more honorary titles. The actual improvement would be limited, so there's no need to go out of my way to pursue it."

She paused, her voice softening, "I just feel that you are still young and shouldn't be confined to one place by me too early. You should have a wider world to explore."

Leng Keyan knew that Yin Siyao wasn't pushing him away, but rather considering his feelings, and was even a little worried that she would become a burden to him.

"Teacher Yin, you are my broadest sky. Wherever you are, that's where I want to go in the future. Nothing else matters."

Yin Siyao stopped trying to persuade him.

Leng Keyan became happy and said with a grin, "Teacher Yin, I want to be a student studying next to you. You have to take good care of me!"

Yin Siyao: "..."

"Don't worry, Teacher Yin, I'll definitely behave myself and not cause you any trouble. I can even help you with chores. Let's stay in City A, in Kangren, and live a good life together."

Sunlight streamed through the cafeteria's glass windows, casting a warm glow on the floor.

Outside the window, there are familiar campus scenes and youthful figures; inside, there are simple meals and unwavering hopes for the future in each other's eyes.

For Leng Keyan, the most important coordinate in his future plans is always where Yin Siyao is.

For Yin Siyao, accepting this irrational dependence and companionship in his long and rational career is the best future he has planned for himself.

They don't need to go to faraway places to find happiness, because the best scenery is already right beside each other.
