Fang Yan looked at Cheng Zheng worriedly. “If you persuade the designer to leave, what will happen to all this stuff on the table? I don’t know anything about it.”

Cheng Zheng looked at Fang Yan’s anxious and embarrassed expression and laughed loudly.

“Who said I wanted you to do it?” Cheng Zheng pushed Fang Yan to the sofa and stuffed a pillow and blanket into her hands. “Just watch from here.”

With that, Cheng Zheng had already changed his clothes and was ready.

First, he roughly drew the diagram, molten silver, shape, and fine engraving.

Fang Yan had never seen Cheng Zheng holding a scalpel, but she believed that she herself would not look good holding a carving knife.

Fang Yan sized up this person. “Director Cheng, you used to be a blacksmith?”

Cheng Zheng laughed. “Do you hear what you’re saying?”

“I’m just praising you.” Fang Yan had made up her mind to use the soft approach. Now, she had to coax him. “Director Cheng?”

“Yeah.”

Fang Yan said gently, “Have you told your family about us?”

Cheng Zheng: “Not yet.”

Fang Yan continued to ask, “What about friends and classmates?”

Cheng Zheng lowered the tip of the knife in his hand and moved slowly with his strength. “I didn’t say. I thought it wouldn’t be too late to tell everyone after the two of us settle down.”

Fang Yan shouted ‘yes’ in her heart.

“Director Cheng, can you not tell them first?”

The tip of the blade quickly moved out of control, and Cheng Zheng’s body paused imperceptibly.

Fang Yan was a little uneasy and immediately added, “It’s not that I want you to keep it from anyone for three to five years, or even one to two years! It’s just that I haven’t completely adapted to our relationship. For example, I can’t change the way we address each other. I haven’t thought about how to face your family either. I…”

Cheng Zheng turned around. “Sure.”

Fang Yan: “?”

Cheng Zheng: “You don’t have to be so nervous. I won’t lose my temper. I promise you.”

For some reason, Fang Yan felt even more guilty. “Don’t worry, I’ll try my best to adjust my condition.”

“It’s okay.” Cheng Zheng sighed softly and raised his eyebrows to smile at Fang Yan. “Director Cheng is not bad either. I’m used to hearing it. Or you can call me Cheng Zheng if you want. It’s not important. Fang Yan, I hope you can be happy. Marriage is a happy thing.”

Fang Yan: “Okay.”

When the two of them returned to the hospital, it was already five in the afternoon. Cheng Zheng parked the car outside the inpatient department, fulfilling Fang Yan’s wish not to show up together.

“I don’t have enough time today. I’ll give you the gift a few days later. I’ll go back and pack up first. I’ll change my clothes and see you later during the ward round.”

Fang Yan: “You still have to make a trip tonight?”

Cheng Zheng joked, “Do you want to seize the opportunity and beg me to help you carry things?”

Just as Fang Yan was about to get serious, Cheng Zheng urged her, “Hurry up and leave! I’m just working hard. It’s an occupational disease. I’d be worried if I don’t take a look. There’s no choice. You’ll know in the future.”

Fang Yan got out of the car and realized that someone at the entrance of the inpatient department kept looking at her. From the back, he looked similar to Cheng Zheng, but his temperament was incomparable. Fang Yan secretly shook her head.

Fang Yan subconsciously compared him to Cheng Zheng and couldn’t help but take a few more glances. She didn’t expect to meet that person’s gaze.

Their eyes met, but the man didn’t dodge.

Fang Yan: “…”

What the hell? Fang Yan cursed in her heart and quickly fled.

On the other side, Hong Hao got into Cheng Zheng’s front passenger seat with ease.

Then, he was kicked out of the car.

Cheng Zheng said, “Go to the back.”

Hong Hao: “…”

He thought that it was fine. As a man, he could take this.

Hong Hao obediently rolled to the back seat. He was here to interview Cheng Zheng about his journey in wooing his wife. He could not give up halfway.

“You have to admit that fate is everything? I bumped into the two of you when you came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Tsk tsk, Cheng Zheng, you’re amazing. You laid your hands on yourself. A honey trap coupled with a ruse of self-injury. You’ve set up a trap!”

Cheng Zheng hummed in acknowledgment, not even bothering to look at him.

“Tsk, you still don’t want to admit it, right?” Hong Hao felt neglected. “You look like a well-behaved lamb, harmless, but you’re a sly fox deep down! You only know how to take advantage of the sympathy of beautiful girls!”

Hong Hao reached out and patted Cheng Zheng’s shoulder. “Just the gossip alone in the hospital can eat you up! Not to mention the director, even I can’t stand it anymore. Don’t tell me you don’t know anything. If I were to say that you were the one who released the rumor, I would indeed have wronged you, but you knew this day would come from the moment you decided to do Jiang Lan’s surgery, right? And you said that no one is allowed to be involved. I heard that you people from the neurosurgery department have long wanted to expel that Li guy. You were the one who approved him to recuperate for an extra week in the hospital. This is the first time you took the initiative to use the Cheng family’s power, right?”
