Chapter 9 Chen Ge Ends The Relationship With You

  • Cheng Cheng watched as Zhao Qichen affectionately pinched Bai Zhi's delicate chin, which had been cut by a knife. Then he leaned in and whispered something in her ear, causing the young beauty to blush before they left together.
  • As they departed, he glanced back at her.
  • In that glance, there was only indifference, without a trace of the affection and tenderness he showed towards Bai Zhi.
  • Cheng Cheng met his handsome yet cold gaze, silently gripping the bedsheet.
  • Suddenly, she realized something.
  • No matter how much Zhao Qichen admired her beauty, she was not the most special person in his heart.
  • She couldn't rely on his affection, and she couldn't even oppose any of his decisions.
  • Whatever he asked of her, she could only comply, without any resistance, not even a hint of it.
  • That's how Zhao Qichen would be satisfied.
  • However, she was already twenty-seven years old.
  • Even though her beauty was her rare asset at this stage, eventually, this beauty would also be ravaged and withered by the merciless passage of time.
  • Her beauty would fade, and her asset would depreciate.
  • Even if she wasn't a businesswoman, she understood very well that she should leverage her beauty when it can have the greatest impact.
  • She needed to find a successful second-generation wealthy person.
  • Preferably someone who loved her wholeheartedly.
  • Only then would she have a greater chance of achieving her goals.
  • She stayed in the hospital for a day, and once she was able to move, she checked herself out.
  • Then she returned to her workplace.
  • Deng Yujiao was an obstetrician. After completing a surgery, she found Cheng Cheng, her eyes slightly red.
  • She asked, "What's wrong?"
  • Deng Yujiao raised her hand to cover her face and said, "Today, a pregnant woman jumped off a building."
  • Cheng Cheng was taken aback and moved her fingers away from the keyboard. "What happened?"
  • Deng Yujiao explained, "The pregnant woman requested a cesarean section, but her in-laws disagreed. Her own family is not from the local area and is still on their way. The pregnant woman had a mental breakdown and jumped off the building."
  • "When did this happen?"
  • Cheng Cheng stood up and looked out the window.
  • "Just now," Deng Yujiao replied.
  • Cheng Cheng looked down and indeed saw a group of people gathered like ants, with a blurry figure in the middle.
  • She clenched the curtains tightly.
  • Deng Yujiao said, "It's really difficult. Why did it have to end up like this..."
  • She was on the verge of collapse. "If she can hold on a little longer, or if her in-laws allow a cesarean section, she won't die. Even if we have to endure for another ten minutes, I can risk my career and save her!"
  • Cheng Cheng walked over and gently embraced her, letting her face rest against his waist, comforting her, "Don't be sad. You're a doctor, you can't be so emotional. Be strong."
  • Deng Yu Jiao held onto him, tears streaming down her face, "Even though I've been in this profession for so many years, I still feel sad. Do I have a mental illness? Should I go see a psychologist?"
  • Cheng Cheng stroked her hair, "No need, you're not sick."
  • "But I'm still sad."
  • Cheng Cheng remained silent.
  • Everyone would feel sad. She could even imagine the despair and devastation of the mother's family when they traveled thousands of miles to see their daughter's lifeless body.
  • The pain of losing a loved one was no less than the sky falling and the earth crumbling.
  • She was lost in thought, not even noticing the faint buzzing of her phone on the table after it was put on silent.
  • A few minutes later, the door of the consultation room was forcefully pushed open.
  • Deng Yu Jiao, still grieving, was startled.
  • Cheng Cheng also looked up in surprise, towards the door.
  • Jiang Gu, panting heavily, appeared at the door wearing a light sky blue basketball outfit, as if he had just completed a long-distance sprint. Sweat stains covered his forehead.
  • His arms, knees, and calves were exposed, and his youthful muscles were so well-defined that it was hard to look away.
  • Deng Yu Jiao stared at him, her mouth forming an "O" shape.
  • But Jiang Gu, after catching his breath while looking at her for a moment, rushed in and pulled Deng Yu Jiao up, pushing her out of the consultation room.
  • Then the door of the consultation room slammed shut.
  • Deng Yu Jiao was left dumbfounded, from being pulled up to being thrown out.
  • On the other hand, Cheng Cheng blinked his eyes after Jiang Gu closed the door, calmly asking, "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly rush over? Is there an emergency?"
  • Jiang Gu clenched his fist with his five fingers, his emotions seemed to be brewing like volcanic lava in his chest, unable to be contained.
  • "Somebody died in your hospital."
  • Cheng Cheng sat down nonchalantly, his gaze as calm as an ancient well, showing no emotions. "In a place like a hospital, people die every day."
  • "I thought it was you who died..." Jiang Gu panted heavily, staring at her.
  • Because he heard that someone in the hospital had died, a doctor who had committed suicide by jumping off a building.
  • So he rushed over from the basketball court halfway through the game.
  • His whole body was almost soaked in sweat.
  • "It's not me," Cheng Cheng replied.
  • Jiang Gu walked over, pressing his hands on her desk and leaning down to look at her. "It's not you, that's good. I was scared."
  • "I'm perfectly fine, why would I jump off a building?" Cheng Cheng smiled and said, "Don't curse me like that."
  • Jiang Gu couldn't explain why he thought it was her, but ever since he first saw Cheng Cheng, he felt that this woman was very strange.
  • There was always a peculiar aura around her.
  • She seemed calm, but also lifeless.
  • "I have something to tell you," Jiang Gu couldn't hold it in any longer.
  • Cheng Cheng looked at his handsome face, smiled with her hands clasped together, and asked, "What do you want to say?"
  • "Although I don't know who that wealthy second-generation person is, my wealth is not less than his."
  • Cheng Cheng pondered for a moment.
  • Jiang Gu continued, "Be with me."
  • Cheng Cheng looked into his eyes and remained silent for a while.
  • Jiang Gu stared at her, his eyes showing obvious nervousness and excitement, like a young boy confessing his feelings.
  • And in reality, he was indeed quite young.
  • Cheng Cheng smiled, leaned back, and shook her head. "No."
  • Her teeth were white, and she enunciated clearly, simply saying two words, "No."
  • Jiang Gu was rejected for the first time in his life, and it was by a woman older than him who had just broken up with someone else.
  • For a moment, he couldn't react.
  • By the time he arrived, Cheng Cheng had already left her office.
  • As he stood under the scorching sun, his sportswear soaked with sweat, he squinted and took out his phone to make a call, saying, "Hello..."
  • A few minutes later, Cheng Cheng's phone rang.
  • She answered the call.
  • A haughty female voice came from the other end, asking, "Is this Cheng Cheng?"
  • "Who is this?" Cheng Cheng inquired.
  • The woman chuckled, "We met at Chen Ge's private hospital."
  • Cheng Cheng recognized her.
  • "But I believe I should introduce myself," she proudly spoke, like a peacock flaunting its feathers, eager to show off. "I am Bai Zhi, Chen Ge's girlfriend."
  • Cheng Cheng remained silent.
  • Bai Zhi continued, "Chen Ge asked me to let you know that he's done with you."
