“I have a boyfriend!”
“He’s just really busy with work!”
Manni tightened her small face a little and responded after adjusting her emotions briefly.
“Doctor Guan, stop fooling yourself!”
“It’s already past midnight. If you really had a boyfriend, shouldn’t he have shown some gesture by now?”
“A transfer, a red packet, or even just a WeChat greeting?”
“But, did you receive any?”
Zhou Rui shrugged his shoulders and then pushed the rose he was holding further forward, “If you really had a boyfriend, he should be the one giving you this flower.”
Pierced by continuous hits to her heart, Guan Mengmeng was at a loss for words. She gritted her teeth, wanting to retort, but felt a wave of powerlessness instead.
Because what Zhou Rui said was also a matter of fact.
“Doctor Guan, give it a chance, let’s try to get along…”
Zhou Rui pressed on, seizing the moment.
And just as he finished speaking, Mengmeng’s phone suddenly chimed.
Mengmeng, who had been awaiting a reply from Yang Hao, was instantly thrilled and quickly checked her phone. It was a transaction notification from the bank.
Just now, Yang Hao had transferred “1314520” to her!
At the same time, Yang Hao’s “520” blessing WeChat message also arrived, inviting Mengmeng to meet for a meal.
In truth, money wasn’t that important to Mengmeng anymore. After all, Yang Hao had already bought her a luxury house and car, and she didn’t have many material needs. Instead, the WeChat message inviting her to dine was what truly made her happy.
Mengmeng, who had been somewhat listless, instantly radiated joy. The exhaustion from the night shift vanished in that moment.
As for Zhou Rui, he witnessed the whole process of Mengmeng going from a frown to blooming smiles. He thought he had hit the nail on the head concerning Mengmeng’s issues and might have a chance.
But Mengmeng’s attitude made a one hundred and eighty degree turn, and the joy emanating from her heart was characteristic of a girl in love.
Since Mengmeng had been somewhat impatient while looking at her phone and had not been wary of Zhou Rui nearby, he managed to catch a glimpse of that bank transfer message.
It was a transfer of 1314520 yuan!
But he had only glanced at it and wasn’t sure if it was over one million three hundred thousand, or just over one hundred thirty thousand.
Not to mention the one hundred thirty thousand, even thirteen thousand would be enough to shock Zhou Rui.
As a doctor who hadn’t been working for many years, his monthly salary was just over ten thousand, and with bonuses and such, his annual salary was just a little over two hundred thousand.
A 520 transfer of thirteen thousand was still beyond his means.
“Boyfriend made a transfer, and he sent a WeChat message too, do you believe it now?”
Mengmeng, in high spirits, flaunted her phone, signaling that Zhou Rui could leave.
“Doctor Guan, I apologize for asking, but did your boyfriend just transfer 1314520 to you??”
Zhou Rui was genuinely curious about the exact number in that message and couldn’t help but ask.
“Hm?”
Mengmeng’s eyebrows lifted, surprised that he had seen the content of her message.
“I didn’t mean to invade your privacy.”
“I just saw it unintentionally.”
Zhou Rui quickly explained.
“Doctor Zhou, there’s a patient waiting for you.”
Mengmeng, who has always been low-profile, naturally wouldn’t answer such a question.
“Oh, alright!”
“I have to go now.”
Zhou Rui responded and left, holding the roses, his spirits deflated, returning to his post.
However, Mengmeng’s evasive attitude made him lean more towards the belief that the amount he saw was indeed over one hundred thirty thousand!
Rumors had been circulating around the hospital that Mengmeng’s boyfriend was a tycoon, and now it seemed that the rumors were true!
Zhou Rui looked at the roses in his hand and could not help but smile bitterly at himself, how could a junior doctor like him compete with a tycoon!
Lanjiang Bay.
After sending out a round of transfers and WeChat messages, Yang Hao’s excitement score also soared to 3600!
What comforted him was that money wasn’t all that influential; the women around him all hoped that he would spend 520 with them!
For instance, when Guan Mengmeng received the transfer, her delight only increased by 30, but when Yang Hao sent an invitation to dine out, her delight shot up by 300!
After transferring money and sending messages to the women he had been intimate with, Yang Hao clicked on his sister-in-law Li Manni’s WeChat conversation and hesitated.
Logically, he, as a brother-in-law, shouldn’t be messaging Li Manni on 520.
However, their relationship had become quite ambiguous a long time ago, but neither of them had breached that final layer.
So now, Yang Hao was quite conflicted, questioning whether he should also send a message to Li Manni?
And while he was hesitating, the WeChat conversation box, which was open, suddenly popped up with a message:
Yang, happy 520!!
It was Li Manni who sent the message first.
Uh?
It was actually the young lady who took the initiative.
Yang Hao gently shook his head and couldn’t help but smile slightly at the corners of his mouth; he could reach out to other women without hesitation.
But when it came to Li Manni, he really didn’t know how to proceed; after all, the little sister-in-law was someone he watched grow up, and there was always a barrier in his heart that was hard to break through.
Just when Yang Hao was thinking about how to reply, the message that Li Manni had just sent was suddenly withdrawn!
Seeing the “A message has been withdrawn” notification, Yang Hao couldn’t help but laugh!
It was clear that this young lady was just as conflicted as he was.
Binjiang Left Bank.
Dressed in a spaghetti-strap nightgown, Li Manni, after clicking the message withdrawal, panic-strickenly threw her phone to the side and began to breathe heavily.
Sending a message on a day like 520 was perhaps too forward, she thought, nearly indistinguishable from a confession.
“Manni, you are too timid,”
“you sent the message and then withdrew it!”
Xu Wenqian, sitting with Li Manni on the couch, spoke up teasingly.
“I still think it was a bit too abrupt.”
“520 is too special a day…” Li Manni hugged her knees and buried her head in them, murmuring softly.
“That’s exactly why you should send it on 520!”
“What’s the point on a regular day? Now is the time to make your move, otherwise Yang will really be taken by those enchantresses!”
Xu Wenqian placed her hands on her friend’s shoulders, shaking her with indignation.
Then, she picked up the phone that Li Manni had thrown aside: “If you don’t dare to send it, I’ll do it for you!”
Saying this, Xu Wenqian was about to send a message.
“Don’t send it!”
“Let me think again!”
Li Manni, in a panic, hurriedly reached out to grab the phone Xu Wenqian was holding.
Just then, Li Manni’s phone suddenly chimed.
“It’s a WeChat message from Yang!”
Li Manni’s phone notification settings showed who sent the message but not the content.
So, Xu Wenqian only saw the nickname of the message sender flashing on the screen.
“Give me the phone!”
Upon hearing that Yang Hao had sent a message, Li Manni immediately sprung to action, snatching the phone back and eagerly opened the WeChat message from Yang Hao.
[Happy Holidays]
The message was only four simple words, but on this special day, these four words spoke volumes.
The frown that had knotted Li Manni’s brow instantly relaxed, and a sweet smile filled her cute face.
Ding-dong!
Just as Li Manni was about to reply to the message, the phone chimed again—this time it was a text message.
From Construction Bank!
Just now, her Jian Bank card ending in 1249 had received a transfer of “13145200” yuan from Yang Hao!
