Chapter 307 - Its A Date!
Leaving Yang Ziyi to take her time, Wu Wang left the hospital to get his car. While he was opening the door, he heard a loud shout from behind calling out to him, "Hey, Wang Ge!"
Wu Wang paused and turned to look at Xu Mey walking towards him with Lin Shen while He Jian was trailing behind, dispiritedly. Apparently, all of them were also planning on leaving the hospital. They walked towards the parking lot where their own cars were parked and that’s when they caught sight of Wu Wang.
"Wang Ge, are you going home?" Wu Wang shook his head in negation. Xu Mey frowned slightly and asked, "Then? Where are you going?" She stealthily took a glance at He Jian before beckoning Wu Wang to lower his head. "And what did you say to Jian Ge? Why does he look like someone stole his candy?" She whisper-asked making Wu Wang chuckle.
He reciprocated her actions and whispered back, "Let’s say, I gave him a reason to look at the world with a new perspective." Xu Mey frowned and Wu Wang couldn’t help but tousle her hair as he added, "You can also say that I really stole his candy." Although she didn’t get the details, she got the gist of events as she bobbed her head up and down in slow motion. After whispering, Wu Wang straightened his back and further added, "As for the answer to your question, I’m not going home. I’m taking a dumb doctor out on city tour as I promised her."
Wu Wang didn’t feel the need to lie or hide anything from them. In his mind, he was clear that Yang Ziyi was just one of his acquaintances or perhaps friends? But there was nothing else in his mind. At least not until someone voiced it out.
"Ha! You’re going on a date!" Xu Mey exclaimed excitedly and a certain someone who was brooding in the back also lifted his face to give Wu Wang a surprised look.
Wu Wang himself was taken aback by this remark of Xu Mey. Date? He was not! Or at least, that’s what he believed.
"I am not!" Wu Wang retorted in the same manner.
"Oh, really?" Lin Shen challenged with a quirk of his brow.
"Of course!" Wu Wang argued.
"Since when did Wu Wang actually became a tour guide then?" Even He Jian couldn’t help but chime in.
"It’s not about being a tour guide. She’s alone in the city and she doesn’t even have friends. Since I know her and I’m used to her being a nuisance, I thought I should show her around." Wu Wang spoke righteously but the trio before him had other ideas running in their minds.
Did they believe his words? Of course, they did!
But were they going to tell him that?
Definitely not! Wouldn’t that ruin their chance to tease him?
"Hey, Auntie! Guess what! Wang Ge is going on a date," Wu Wang was dumbfounded as he saw Xu Mey elatedly telling on him to his own mother.
He snatched the phone from her hand and heard his mother’s voice from the other side, "Oh, really? I should talk to Shen and Ju-Ju and arrange Wang’s wedding with theirs."
Wu Wang rolled his eyes at his mother’s excited voice. "Ma! Stop dreaming, it’s not healthy for you. And I’m not going on a date! Stop looking for auspicious dates for the wedding!" Saying that he hung up the phone and threw a dangerous look towards Xu Mey.
The latter was obviously unfazed by his look.
"Guys, she’s just a friend. Not like we are. But still, I’ve known her for years... Or more like, I’ve argued with her for years. But that’s not the point. Since she doesn’t know anyone else here, I want to help her out." Honestly, he was just trying to be a good person. He accepted Yang Ziyi as a friend because she was exactly like a friend who would never hesitate to tell you things which even you were scared to share with yourself.
He Jian jumped to sit on his car’s bonnet as he said in a poised manner, "I read somewhere that love is also called friendship... Friendship on fire..."
Wu Wang gaped at He Jian in disbelief while the latter shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
Xu Mey smiled to herself as she saw how He Jian trapped Wu Wang with a single statement. "Wang Ge, aren’t you gonna take her to dinner?"
"Well, of course!" answered Wu Wang.
"Then it is a date!" Before Wu Wang could open his mouth to retort, Xu Mey raised her hand to stop him and added, "Whether you agree or not, I’m just gonna call it a date. Deal with it!"
Wu Wang could only resign to his fate at this time since even he knew that nobody was going to listen to whatever he had to say.
"Who’s going on a date?" Hearing this familiar voice, the four of them turned their heads and glared at the person who just had arrived and was now grinning at them as if everything was alright.
But was everything really alright?
