Chapter 645 - 321: Adults Can't Have It All Either! (Part 3)

Xie Yuan'an's eyes slightly brightened when he heard Dai Linfang admit to his 'ordinariness': "There's nothing wrong with not being at the top."

"Tall people have a lot of pressure; when the sky falls, tall people hold it up first."

Chen Song listened and felt the need to tease this simple little girl a bit: "Could it be that tall people lift the short ones up instead?"

In an instant, Chen Song shattered this idiom into pieces.

If it were an ordinary person, they might not be able to handle Chen Song, but she was Xie Yuan'an: "A tall person lifting one short person still won't matter?"

"There's so many short people around!"

"Such small frames."

"When choosing chickens to kill, at least the little chicks can live a bit longer."

Xie Yuan'an's voice was very pure, and her gaze was pure as well.

These words were impeccable.

The dinner was nearing its end, and Lu Cheng personally hailed a cab to take Professor Chen Song to stay at the Crown Hotel in Ji City, before returning home.

At home, Mu Nanshu had already prepared some sober-up tea for Lu Cheng.

When Lu Cheng walked in, he asked, "Why did you argue when Professor Chen was joking?"

Mu Nanshu's eyes were sparkling: "Do you really have that kind of thought?"

"Are you jealous?" Lu Cheng's tone was a bit surprised.

Mu Nanshu looked up, holding a roll of book in her hand, her index finger wedged in the middle, swinging it side to side: "Can't I be jealous? I'm asking about the fact that you argued."

"Arguing over things you don't care about just shows involvement."

Lu Cheng shook his head, his voice very calm: "Actually, yesterday, while I was on duty, a colleague from our hospital called me to ask if I could handle the orthopedics 'non-union'."

"Last time I was on duty, someone asked me if I could save her mother's life; the person speaking was a nurse from our department."

"I wanted to, but I knew that it was impossible."

Mu Nanshu glared: "You still wanted to?"

"I meant treating patients, I wanted to."

"As for other things, I don't think about them frivolously."

"Actually, Professor Chen was joking today to expose Xie Yuan'an, playing the role of her matchmaker."

"Good women fear courting; Dai Linfang has slowly been worn down."

"Before, she felt Dai Linfang was too outstanding, inherently arrogant, so she thought Dai Linfang wasn't someone on her level."

"As for us, we're all just ordinary people, knowing that we're likely to be mundane throughout our lives."

"I only like this simplicity, not interested in grand promises and heart-wrenching emotions, and can't do the 'time management', cheating 'Zhuge Liang' games."

"Book Bag, if I told you this, girls like Xie Yuan'an might be very beautiful, like drinking wine."

"But you're like my water, bland and ubiquitous, blending into all the food and drink I consume."

Mu Nanshu's expression returned to calm: "I don't even know if you're quoting a player's lines."

"You still haven't directly answered my question." Mu Nanshu didn't know when she learned to be 'unreasonable', a few years younger, throwing a little tantrum.

Lu Cheng slowly leaned closer, knowing Mu Nanshu wasn't really bothered, just looking for a topic: "Then I'll answer from the back."

"Huh?" Mu Nanshu was shocked.

"I'm off work tomorrow." Lu Cheng embraced Mu Nanshu lightly.

"I have to work, I need to shower and sleep."

"Then you should sleep even earlier..."
