Let's Divorce As Agreed

Chapter 608: Yao Ning

“Auntie, how are you feeling today?” Yao Ning truly lived up to her name, tall and graceful, with a gentle and charming demeanor, exuding an intellectual beauty.

Mother He became increasingly satisfied the more she looked at her.

She smiled and said, “I’m fine now, everything’s okay. No need to worry.”

“Good to hear.” Yao Ning smiled faintly.

Then she turned to look at He Ming beside her, and couldn’t help but feel a little stunned, followed by a blush creeping onto her cheeks.

Yes, Yao Ning liked He Ming. Back when she was in school, she admired him. At that time, she often found reasons to visit his house, seeking some presence.

But He Ming didn’t seem to notice, remaining as he was before.

Yao Ning was unwilling to give up. She worked hard in school, got into a prestigious university, and finally became a doctor. She felt she was now worthy of He Ming. But she heard from classmates that he had a girlfriend.

The news of him having a girlfriend never ceased. She was disappointed to the point of giving up.

But heaven helps those who help themselves. Her sincerity eventually touched the heavens when Mother He fell ill, and she was assigned to her department.

She was secretly delighted, finally having a reason and an excuse to interact with He Ming.

Over the past few days, she saw how happy Mother He was and how satisfied she seemed with her.

She pretended not to notice, wanting to see He Ming’s reaction. After several encounters, he remained indifferent to her, treating her like an ordinary classmate, nothing special.

She felt disappointed. She thought he might be indifferent to her because he had a girlfriend. But after observing for some time, no woman came to visit him.

What was going on? Why didn’t he accept her? She couldn’t figure it out.

She knew she was outstanding, with good conditions herself, and there were plenty of people trying to introduce boyfriends to her. But she just liked He Ming.

“Ming, say something…” Mother He saw He Ming was silent. She had to remind him.

He Ming knew what his mother’s intentions were and didn’t want her to worry.

He Ming spoke up, smiling at Yao Ning, “Thank you, Yao Ning. How about we grab a meal together sometime?”

Yao Ning was taken aback, not expecting He Ming to invite her. Instantly, she felt overjoyed.

Great, He Ming finally responded to her.

“You’re too polite, it’s just a small matter, nothing to worry about,” Yao Ning replied politely.

“Really appreciate your help, my dear old classmate. You’ve been a great help during my mother’s hospitalization,” He Ming emphasized the term “classmate” deliberately.

Since he wasn’t interested in her, there was no need to give her false hope or engage in any ambiguous relationship.

“Alright then, let’s have dinner tonight, don’t stand me up,” Yao Ning saw this as a good opportunity, finally having some time alone with him.

“Sure, see you then,” He Ming nodded, but inwardly, he was somewhat absent-minded. He wanted to quickly call Xiaomeng. They hadn’t been in touch for so long, he wondered how she was doing.

Yao Ning checked Mother He’s condition and found everything was fine.

“Auntie, you’re all good now. You can be discharged. Congratulations,” Yao Ning informed Mother He of the good news after the examination.

“Really? That’s wonderful, you’re amazing,” Mother He said happily upon hearing the news. She was starting to feel nauseous from the hospital disinfectant smell and was relieved to finally be getting out.

Yao Ning smiled shyly, not wanting to take credit.

“Mom, I’ll go help you with the discharge procedures,” He Ming said eagerly upon hearing that his mother could be discharged. He was thrilled.
