Chapter 58: Hey, he really got a taste of the bitterness of love

In the end, the Vice President gave the green light, agreeing to arrange a hospital bed and surgery in advance for Lu Manman's friend's mother.

However, he made one request—

"The quota for exchange and study at the Jinling First People's Hospital will go to Pei Yao. Don't write the application report."

"Why? Vice President, this is very unfair to me!"

Lu Manman's face turned pale instantly. Pei Yao was her defeated opponent in the hospital system in her past life; she had always been the eternal second place, only worthy of being under her feet!

Such a transparent person, inferior to her in every way, why did she deserve to get this exchange and study quota!

"Lu Manman, have you looked at your assessment scores for the last six months?"

The Vice President pressed his eyebrows, took off his glasses with a look of fatigue, and his tone was flat and waveless.

The questioning words left the person opposite speechless.

Lu Manman had naturally seen them, but at that time, she was immersed in the joy of her new marriage and felt satisfied after successfully intercepting Shen Man's arranged marriage and becoming Mrs. Gu. How could she care about such a small matter as assessment scores?

"Vice President, I—"

Her face was ugly, and she was incoherent.

This time, without the "all-purpose" spiritual spring, her "medical talent" hadn't been recognized by the hospital, so what did she have to compete with Pei Yao?

"Pei Yao's assessment scores for the last six months are excellent, so this isn't a discussion; it's a notification."

A trace of disappointment flashed in the Vice President's eyes. He had valued this "student" so much before, and now he was just as disappointed.

Before Lu Manman came to his office, Director Wang's assistant had already come once.

He had just been swearing that Lu Manman would uphold the hospital's rules and regulations, but unexpectedly, he was slapped in the face immediately after...

"Bang."

When Lu Manman left the Vice President's office, she didn't control her strength, making a not-so-light sound.

At this moment, she regretted it to death!

She shouldn't have ruined her own future for that idiot Gu Yinyin!

She could imagine that Pei Yao would successfully participate in the exchange meeting and return in triumph, showing off in front of her...

Was there any way to stop Pei Yao?

Dark thoughts grew wantonly in her heart, and a formless black qi circled in her heart silently...

At dusk, clouds with high saturation drifted across the sky over the Sea Island.

After working all afternoon and finishing the assembly of the last bed board, Lu Xiu Bai collapsed on the bed board without any image, tears in his eyes—

"My dear Grandpa, your grandson has worked his life away for your bed!"

"Brother, are you tired? Come drink some water and eat some fruit."

Shen Man was spotless; let alone doing work, even boiling water was done by someone willing to do it for her.

"Fruit? How many good things did you buy today?"

Lu Xiu Bai touched his stomach, recalling the three fried eggs he ate at noon, and felt that the bland egg noodles had become delicious.

"A gift from Brother Jiang Ye's friend, saying it was a wedding gift to celebrate our marriage."

Shen Man explained with a good temper, then reached out to pull her brother's arm.

"Don't touch me, I'm dirty."

Lu Xiu Bai rolled on the bed board. The 1.5-meter bed was just the right size for him to roll around.

"Alright, your wedding room is also set up. Move in from the Guesthouse tomorrow.

As for Jiang Ye, continue to stay in the dormitory with me until the collective wedding is held."

"Oh."

Shen Man responded in a low voice. Her brother's arrangement also had some logic.

In the main hall, Jiang Ye, who was fiddling with the chairs, stiffened his body.

This brother-in-law of his was really his nemesis.

However, he understood that the other party was considering his wife's reputation. After the collective wedding was held, he would live with his wife and consummate the marriage.

They had already registered their marriage; he really—well, he wasn't in a rush for a moment...

"Clatter~"

One of the chair legs was cracked by his grip.

"Brother Jiang Ye, what happened?"

Shen Man heard the noise and hurriedly turned to look at the main hall.

"Nothing, this chair isn't sturdy. I'll take a tool to fix it. You and your brother eat some fruit; I'll be done soon."

Jiang Ye had his back to his wife, his voice as usual.

He couldn't say he wanted to challenge his brother-in-law to a duel for talking too much, could he?

He was afraid that if he said it, his brother-in-law would be putting eye drops on him later...

"Which furniture store is this from? It's not sturdy at all~"

Lu Xiu Bai had a hint of roguish relaxation in his suspicion. With his hands in his pockets, wearing an undershirt whose color could no longer be distinguished, he walked out of the second bedroom.

"Brother, how are things with you and Sister Yan Ting?"

Shen Man patted the chair she had wiped and signaled for her brother to sit down and talk.

She handed the fruit plate to her brother, letting her brother, who had worked hard all afternoon, relax.

"Adult matters, children shouldn't interfere."

Hearing this topic, Lu Xiu Bai's face turned red and green.

He always felt that something was strange.

Pei Yan Ting sometimes seemed to like him, deliberately teasing him and even molesting him.

Other times, she turned her face and didn't recognize anyone, making him feel like he was someone to be summoned and dismissed at will.

Hey, he really got a taste of the bitterness of love.

"Brother, I'm already married. Grandpa is coming tomorrow. When he sees that I'm already married, and then looks at you, with no partner confirmed, won't he swing his crutch at you?"

Shen Man curled her lips and smiled, her little appearance very proud.

It was like a little fox, revealing a cunning side that made people unable to hate her.

"Sister, I'm your own brother. If Grandpa beats me up later, you have to help me pull him away.

Look at me, my injuries have just healed, and I'm not young anymore. If I'm chased and beaten by Grandpa, won't I become the laughingstock of the Military Region?"

Lu Xiu Bai still wanted face, so he could only hope his sister would help him out.

"Fine, since you're my brother."

Shen Man heard that this was the case. If the laughingstock reached Sister Yan Ting's ears, her brother's impression score would definitely shrink significantly!

The brother and sister openly "plotted" to pick up Grandpa together tomorrow, introduce Jiang Ye as the grandson-in-law when they met, and then bring Grandpa to the island and settle him in.

As for whether Grandpa wanted to live in her small courtyard or had other considerations, they would talk about it then.

In the yard, Jiang Ye held a hammer, found a nail, and reinforced the leg of the chair with the crack.

"Bang, bang, bang."

The force had to be light, and the angle had to be adjusted to avoid bending the nail and leaving hidden dangers after the repair.

This man's serious nature of treating everything with meticulous care made people fascinated.

"Meow-woo."

Tangyuan jumped down from its master's arms, walked with cat steps to the big boss's feet, and rubbed against him, absorbing today's share of luck.

Jiang Ye raised his eyes and glanced lightly at the little dumpling at his feet.

Love me, love my dog; his wife's beloved pet was, by rounding up, his beloved pet.

By the way, rubbing is a cat's way of expressing liking, right? ===== CHAPTER 59 =====
