“Is your soup ready?” Zheng Xu asked Ming Lang.

“Wait a moment, I’m going to get some salt, and then you can enjoy the world’s best soup!” Yu Minglang got up to fetch something from the trunk.

Zheng Xu turned around and asked Xiao Qian, who was secretly eating canned food.

“Chen Xiaqian, what do you see in him?”

Xiao Qian paused with her spoon in hand, “I don’t know, it’s just a feeling. I can’t explain it.”

“Really… Not considering anyone else?”

Xiao Qian looked at Yu Minglang’s back and shook her head with the spoon in her mouth.

“As long as he’s alive, I won’t consider anyone else. If not him, I’ll stay single. Zheng Xu, why don’t you just kill him?”

Zheng Xu laughed at her teasing, “If I kill him, you’ll definitely come after my life.”

Xiao Qian smirked, they were both smart people. Looking at her smile, Zheng Xu understood.

He couldn’t give her that smile.

“Let’s schedule a time to meet.”

“Why?” Yu Minglang poked his head around, always ready to observe the enemy!

“I remembered something that happened when I was 14. Maybe it could help with your condition.”

Xiao Qian was overjoyed, “Really?!”

She couldn’t believe that the problem she couldn’t solve in her past life despite her efforts would finally see a turning point!

“Yes, it’s just my fault for remembering too late.” Zheng Xu looked at Xiao Qian, then at the watchful Yu Minglang behind her.

Zheng Xu was not the kind of person to never give up. He didn’t have Yu Minglang’s thick skin, and most importantly, he couldn’t bear to hurt her bright smile.

If Yu Minglang was not in her life, he would rather pretend to be sick for a lifetime, and keep her by his side, not believing that he couldn’t warm her heart.

But she already had someone, and his interference wouldn’t be good for either of them.

In this life, Zheng Xu’s time with Xiao Qian was short, and although he liked her very much, he wasn’t as obsessed as he had been in his past life. In his previous life, he willingly became Xiao Qian’s “patient” for a lifetime, but when she came back this time, she met Yu Minglang, and everything changed.

“Zheng Xu, don’t worry, I will cure you!” Xiao Qian was extremely excited upon hearing that he remembered. She was finally going to have her first successful case after her rebirth.

“To be cured but only become eternal friends, haha…” If given the choice, he would rather be a “patient” for a lifetime.

“What did you say?” Xiao Qian was immersed in her excitement, but Yu Minglang understood Zheng Xu’s low voice and lip movements.

Yu Minglang’s eyes narrowed. It seemed that Zheng Xu had given up?

He didn’t know what had happened in such a short time to cause the change, but he did know that he could temporarily lift his number one alarm.

He personally poured a bowl of soup for Zheng Xu, “Bro, I apologize for any offenses before. Please forgive me.”

Yu Minglang said insincerely.

“No offense taken.” Zheng Xu answered perfunctorily, clinking soup bowls with Ming Lang.

Looking at Xiao Qian’s relaxed face, Zheng Xu felt a sense of loss and relief.

It’s enough that she’s happy. At least, that’s what he thinks now.

“Fourth Brother Yu, if you ever make her cry, I’ll kill you.”

“Come on, as long her not making me cry is good enough, right, Qian Bao?”

Xiao Qian stuffed a half-eaten chicken leg into Ming Lang’s mouth, “Can’t even shut your mouth with food!”

“You see, she’s always this violent with me. How could I be the one bullying her?” Ming Lang spread his hands.

“Being subjected to her violence means you have value; otherwise, why would she keep you? She lacks nothing; if you can’t even make her happy, you’d better step down and let someone else take over.”

After saying this, Zheng Xu watched Yu Minglang and Xiao Qian laugh together, and he looked at Ming Lang puzzledly, then at Xiao Qian.

What were they both laughing about?

Only after Xiao Qian finished laughing did she pat Ming Lang, “See, I told you he’s my spiritual twin. Do you believe me now?”

Indeed, this kind of bandit logic was so much like Xiao Qian.

Yu Minglang smiled and filled Zheng Xu’s soup bowl, saying enigmatically.

“As far as the position of her doctor is concerned, there will never be any opportunities for substitutes, nor any exceptions, with me around.”

Until him? Xiao Qian looked at Yu Minglang, her smile deepening at the corners of her lips. This guy was really full of confidence.

But if he wasn’t confident, would he still be Yu Minglang, and would he still have the capital to attract her?

Zheng Xu went home after eating.

Xiao Qian and Ming Lang stayed for a while, and by the time they returned to downtown, it was almost dark. They were still reluctant to part ways, mainly because Ming Lang couldn’t bear to.

Xiao Qian had originally meant to show Zheng Xu directly, but Ming Lang looked at her pitifully with his eyes, saying that it was hard to get a break. Xiao Qian’s heart softened.

If she went home wearing his pants, Mrs. Jia Xiufang would beat her to death with a broom.

So he gUIDed her to the specialty store again, pointing to the egg-band pants he wanted to buy yesterday and asking for a receipt, making Xiao Qian stop him.

“I knew it.” She shook her head at him.

“What did you guess?” Yu Minglang asked.

“Do you have at least three of the same style of pants and shoes?”

Just how stubborn was this man?

No wonder he only recognized one woman in his two lifetimes, this was a character flaw.

“You exaggerate; I usually have two pairs of identical pants, and more of the same style of shoes.”

If she hadn’t said it, he wouldn’t have noticed this detail. Yu Minglang liked matching outfits and would usually buy identical pairs for the sake of convenience.

“Don’t buy that pair, get this skirt instead.” Xiao Qian took down the identical pair from his hand, and Ming Lang saw her pick up a green skirt. His eyes lit up, and he grabbed a pair of similarly colored pants. Couple outfits could be really addictive.

While he was changing, Xiao Qian quickly ran to the opposite clothes counter and picked a few styles she liked.

“Ma’am, what size?”

Xiao Qian used her hands to guess the size, which seemed right from her previous life. She was completely oblivious to the shopping guide’s indescribable gaze. After completing the payment, the shopping guide couldn’t suppress her inner thoughts and whispered to Xiao Qian.

“Sister, you’re really…fortunate.”

Xiao Qian almost dropped the bag in her hand.

When Yu Minglang went to pay, Xiao Qian gave the box to the clothes counter shopping guide, “When he comes back, tell him it’s a gift with the purchase. Got it?”

She wasn’t familiar enough with him yet, and if he knew she had bought it, it would be a problem.

Xiao Qian couldn’t stand that behind his well-dressed appearance, he was wearing old-fashioned August First underpants.

As expected, when Yu Minglang heard it was a gift, he didn’t react too much. He took it without looking inside, and no one cared about the box with Xiao Qian’s high-end underpants, thrown in the car with Yu Minglang’s clothes. The smart Xiao Qian had no idea she was being taken advantage of by the shopping guide this time..
