Taking Part in a Survival Game with My Brother

Lu Yang knew her own condition, but no matter how she emphasized that her hand was only a minor injury, Lu Mingyu still insisted on taking her to Jainex Hospital for another examination.

He didn’t doubt her, but he was concerned about potential hidden risks.

Lu Yang had previously met the directors of various departments, such as the Orthopedics, Dermatology, Anesthesiology, and Emergency departments. So when they learned that she had come to the hospital, they were curious and wanted to see what was going on.

One familiar face after another, Lu Yang greeted them politely with a smile. A cardiac surgeon walked in with a report and said with a smile, “Lu Yang, it seems like your bone structure and posture are even more perfect than before.”

Recognizing the person, Lu Yang raised her eyelashes, and a gleam of light shone in her eyes. “What? Do you want to experiment on me again?”

The doctor from the Cardiac Surgery Department chuckled. “I wouldn’t dare. But I must say, I never expected your brother to be Lu Mingyu!”

“Doesn’t he look like it?” Lu Yang asked in return.

“Not that he doesn’t look like it,” Gu Liye replied with a grumble, touching his nose. “It’s just that the descriptions you two gave of each other don’t match reality at all.”

Lu Mingyu, as seen by Gu Liye:

Gentle, easily bullied by others, very kind, a crybaby, clingy.

Lu Yang, as seen by Lu Mingyu:

A silly and clumsy puppy, falls down when touched, often looking pitiful and making others worry.

However…

Gu Liye couldn’t contain his excitement. “Several girls in our department are fans of your brother. Let’s invite him out for a meal when you have time.”

Lu Yang thought he wanted an autograph but then heard him say, “I’ll come back and show off to them. Look, it’s me, Gu Liye, who had a meal with your idol. Be envious, be jealous, and hate it! I just love it when you can’t stand me but can’t get rid of me!”

Lu Yang:

The entire hospital knows that the head of the Cardiac Surgery Department, who looks as gentle as jade, is actually a reserved person.

Gu Liye let out an “eh” and suddenly pleaded, “Can you come to our Cardiac

Surgery Department?”

Lu Yang rotated her wrist and asked in confusion, “What?”

Gu Liye said, “I heard that Director He is bringing students to the hospital. You can choose our department at that time.”

Lu Yang decisively said, “I won’t choose.”

Gu Liye covered his chest, wearing an injured expression. “Indeed, a woman’s heart is inscrutable!”

But soon, he regained his cheerful face, pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose, and said playfully, “The handsome guy plan doesn’t work. The Vice President can give up.”

Gu Liye, with an air of mystery, said, “The human brain is the most complex thing. Neurosurgery is also a good choice.”

Lu Yang: “Hmm, thank you.”

Gu Liye looked around and asked, “Where’s the big star?”

“I sent him to buy Chinese medicine granules for me.”

“Although Chinese medicine granules represent progress in medicine, they can’t replace the traditional method of preparing Chinese medicine.”

During the decoction process, there is a high probability of interaction among the components of the Chinese medicine prescription, which allows the maximum medicinal properties to be exerted. However, Chinese medicine granules cannot achieve the same effect.

Gu Liye suddenly realized, his gaze fell on Lu Mingyu standing at the door, and he paused for a moment. “Your brother is back?”

Her gaze swept over the item in the man’s hand, and she asked in confusion,

“Did you bring a bottle of Irish whiskey?”

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang looked towards the door, but instead of seeing her brother, she saw someone else. The man still maintained his distant demeanor, exuding a cold and aloof aura. As he approached, their gazes met, and he smiled at her, his tea-colored eyes filled with scattered bloodshot lines.

Lu Yang said, “He’s not my brother.” Gu Liye asked, “Then who is he?” “He’s a friend of my brother.”

“A friend?”

Gu Liye held an X-ray film in one hand and stuffed the other hand in his white coat pocket. He observed the man for a moment. Being busy with work and uninterested in the entertainment industry, he Imew that Lu Mingyu had caused a commotion among a group of girls in the corridor and between departments just an hour ago.

“How did you come here?” Lu Yang asked Jiang Yanzhou.

Jiang Yanzhou replied, “I came over when I heard the news while on my way to bring Bailey’s for you.”

“Bailey’s, a fine drink made from fresh, high-quality Irish cream, pure whiskey, and vanilla and natural cocoa beans from Madagascar,” Gu Liye said.

“It has good taste, but she can’t drink alcohol recently.”

Jiang Yanzhou said, “It doesn’t matter this time. We will spend the Mid -Autumn Festival together in the future, just like this year. Besides, the longer the liquor is aged, the better it tastes. We have plenty of time.”

Gu Liye smiled and waved the X-ray film in his hand, saying to Lu Yang, “The orthopedics department is waiting for me to show them the film. Let’s go. If you need anything, find me anytime.”

After Gu Liye left, Jiang Yanzhou’s voice sounded in Lu Yang’s ears, “How’s your injury?

“It’s fine, nothing serious, just…” Lu Yang realized she was making a big deal out of nothing.

Before she could finish her sentence, her body was gently embraced. The other person’s strength was not great, very careful, and then a subtle force gathered in the curve of her arm, leaving her stunned.

Jiang Yanzhou didn’t say anything, but Lu Yang clearly felt the subtle tremor in his body.

If it were someone else, she might have thought it was a bit melodramatic, but… he quietly held her in his arms, their thoughts pouring out between the two of them, known only to them.

After a while, he finally spoke in a hoarse voice, “Have you read the love letter I wrote for you?”

“No, not yet.”

She wanted to wait until after the variety show ended.

Jiang Yanzhou, who had just calmed down from the shock, felt a slight tremor in his heart when he heard the news. Now that he had settled down, he said, “Let me recite it to you.”

“No need.”

“Then let me listen to you recite it.”

Jiang Yanzhou looked down at her injury, his gaze darkened, and his voice became heavy, “I’m sorry.”

“Why apologize?

After a moment of silence, Lu Yang understood what he meant and said, “No need to apologize. Even if you were here, I would still risk everything to save my brother.”

Her voice sounded as if she were making a solemn vow, resolute and loyal. “I will always stand by my brother’s side.”

“Because even if no one in this world loves me, my brother will always love me the most, the most, the most.”

She repeated a word so emphatically for the first time.

There was no doubt that the words came from Lu Mingyu.

Although it might not sound good to say it this way, Lu Yang indeed placed her brother in a very important position, irreplaceable. No one should entertain the idea of replacing Lu Mingyu’s importance.

If Jiang Yanzhou really decided to like her, then he had to accept it. If he had conflicts with her brother, she would stand by her brother’s side.

Unswervingly guarding their bond of kinship.

She was a girl in her early twenties, but she was not immature, dreaming of romantic love and being a young girl who runs away for love.

Moreover, she only liked him reluctantly at the moment, but it couldn’t be called love yet.

“I, as a person, have no aspirations other than my brother. Everything I do is for my brother. If everything I did before was in vain because of you and brought negative effects to my brother, I won’t allow it.”

Lu Yang looked into his eyes, the corners of her lips curved slightly, and she pretended to speak lightly, ‘You can go back and think about whether you want to pursue someone like me.”

Jiang Yanzhou stared at her, his brows slightly furrowed, and he asked instead, “I hugged you, did you dislike it?”

“If you don’t dislike it, then why do you want to stop me step by step as I approach you?”

Lu Yang was instantly speechless.

Jiang Yanzhou continued, “Or is it that you find my actions too slow?”

“You even gave me a ring last time, and today you’re telling me to give up on you. Lu Yang, are you planning to call off the engagement?”

Lu Yang said, “Call off what engagement?”

What engagement was he talking about? She had never been engaged.

“It’s fine then.”

Jiang Yanzhou carefully looked at her hand, and his thin lips lightly opened,

“Get better soon. In a few days, I’ll give you acupuncture.”

His tone was casual, as if he were talking about the day of the week being Friday.

Lu Yang was dumbfounded. “Acupuncture shouldn’t be done casually.” “I know,” Jiang Yanzhou said, “I’ll get sick, and you can give me acupuncture.”

“Where should I get it?”
