Xue Lu was taken aback, her eyes inexplicably warm. She reached out and placed a hand with a "slap" on Jiayu’s shoulder, her voice sowhat choked: "That’s great, really, that’s great."
Xue Lu had witnessed Jiayu’s love from the beginning. Once, she was so fond of Xin Ke that she hurt herself, bruised all over, for that man. Clearly, she should have been as proud as a queen, but she humbled herself for one man.
At one ti, Xue Lu thought Jiayu was really cheap, but when it cos to emotions, who isn’t?
If you truly love soone, you can indeed lower yourself again and again, until you’re in the dust.
Those who talk about maintaining dignity in love either have mutual feelings or don’t love deeply enough.
On one hand, she scolded Jiayu for not being ambitious, but on the other, Xue Lu felt deep pity for her.
She was different from Jiayu. She didn’t have an impressive family background or a wealthy life, but in love, she had always been lucky.
She had only ever liked one person, from a secret crush to an open love, only ever liked one person, and that person happened to like her back.
Perhaps because she had experienced the bitterness of a secret crush and the sweetness of open love, Xue Lu understood Jiayu’s feelings better than anyone.
She was just lucky, but her friend wasn’t as fortunate.
But luckily, it’s all over now.
Xue Lu picked up the glass in front of her, only to realize it was juice.
Who drinks juice at a ti like this?
Xue Lu put down the glass in her hand and shouted loudly: "Waiter, check, please."
After speaking, she looked at Jiayu: "Let’s go, sing so karaoke."

Mu Ke stood at the operating table for nearly five hours. With the high tension, when he got off the operating table, he was drenched in sweat, exhaustion heavily shadowing his brow and eyes. Leaning against the hallway wall, he slid straight down onto the bench.
The surgery just now was extrely risky, coming too suddenly without a complete surgical plan beforehand. It was a huge test for both the patient and the doctor. Fortunately, Mu Ke managed to pull it off.
Two more doctors erged from the operating room, and one male doctor ca over and patted Mu Ke on the shoulder: "Doctor Mu, well done today; we couldn’t have managed without you."
Mu Ke barely lifted his gaze to look at him, offering a faint smile as a greeting.
He Xin stood to the side, pursing her lips, reluctantly speaking up: "Mu Ke, it’s almost al ti. Let’s grab a bite together."
Mu Ke pinched the bridge of his nose and shook his head: "Thanks, but my girlfriend is still waiting for ."
He Xin’s face turned sour. She liked Mu Ke, and everyone in the hospital knew that, but everyone also knew that Mu Ke had a girlfriend.
He Xin had always been proud, and this situation, without a doubt, was a massive blow to her face, yet even so, she was unwilling to give up just like that. After all, she was only a girlfriend, not a wife.
"Then... invite her along?"
Mu Ke rested for a while, feeling slightly better, stood up, and blandly looked at He Xin: "No need, she doesn’t like crowds."
After speaking, Mu Ke turned around to change his clothes.
The winter days darken quickly. By the ti Mu Ke left the private hospital, it was already dark outside. Just as he reached the car door, he received a call from Chen Xueli.
Who knows what the person on the other end of the line said, but Mu Ke’s eyebrows furrowed slightly as he opened the car door and got inside, starting the car.
