Gu Wenwan thought that Lu Sijue married her because she was the only woman who knew about his impotence. However, after marriage, he meticulously planned and played a doctor-patient role play with her. Holding her hand, he said, "Dr. Gu, could you check on me..." He kissed her until she was lost in a whirl of emotions, "Dr. Gu, can I try to see if it works?"... When dawn broke, he teased with a coy smile, "Dr. Gu, you've cured me! To thank you, I will reward you every night from now on..." After being completely taken advantage of, Gu Wenwan suddenly understood: It seemed like she had been schemed! Lu Sijue, who was as aggressive as a tiger or a wolf, didn't have any problem at all! Not only could he perform well, but his performances were excellent! Alternate translation: Gu Wenwan assumed that Lu Sijue's marriage proposal came forth due to her being the only female aware of his inability. But post matrimony, he staged a calculated doctor-patient scenario. He grasped her hand, "Dr. Gu, conduct a check-up on me..." he kissed her until she was left in a chaotic state of affection: "Dr. Gu, may I give it a try to see if it works?" ... Upon sunrise, he gave her a sly grin, "Dr Gu, you have mended me! To express my gratitude, I will repay you dearly every night henceforth..." Once exploited entirely, Gu Wenwan had an eureka moment: It appeared she was the one played! Lu Sijue, who resembled a famished tiger or wolf, hadn't any problem at all! Far from being impotent, he was quite potent!
During the peak of summer, at the verdant Jiang City First People's Hospital, people were hustling and bustling about.
Gu Wenwan haphazardly threw her bicycle into the shed, carrying a thermal insulation box in her hand, she hustled up the stairs, making a bee-line for the urology department.
Once she reached the third floor, she noticed that the entire department solely dedicated to men's health was eerily vacant. Outside Ye Mengmeng's office stood two grim-looking bodyguards adorned in black suits and sunglasses.
Ye Mengmeng was a renowned urologist in Jiang City; numerous "VIPs" with unspeakable issues would seek his professional advice. Hence, Gu Wenwan wasn't surprised at this spectacle.
She scampered to the nurse's station, nonchalantly perched herself onto the desk and basked in the air conditioning. Finally managing to recover from the searing heat, she promptly asked in a gossipy manner, "Who's the patient this time? Is it a physiological or a psychological issue?"
The matronly nurse gave her a disdainful look, "You're a young lady who never knows anything apart from prying into these matters. Have you no shame?"
"What's the fuss? Isn't it just a man's... you know. I've seen plenty of them."
When Lu Sijue emerged from Dr. Ye's office, Gu Wenwan, who was seated at the desk, was animatedly narrating something. "Some men, while their... you know, size is impressive, it's but a mere decoration – all form, no function. Take for instance..."
Intending to point to Dr. Ye Mengmeng's office and refer to a previous case, her sentence trailed off as she found herself staring into a pair of eyes.
Those piercing eyes seemed as deep as the chilled, clear waters of a lake, drawing her in and immobilizing her.
Dear God! That was Lu Sijue! The man treasured as a deity, whose family fortune could easily buy half of America. The Lu family's only heir, famed throughout the country – Lu Sijue!
No wonder the aura around him was so overpowering!
Seeing the famed Lu Sijue in person for the first time– who incredibly was a hundred times more handsome than his pictures, Gu Wenwan was dumbfounded to a state of utter confusion.
...
Gu Wenwan's hand remained frozen mid-air as she pointed at Lu Sijue, who then began to walk in her direction.
"The phrase 'good to look at but not practical' is all too familiar.
With each step closer, there's more delight in his eyes.
It’s her, it really is her.
He had been searching for her from one end of the sky to the other, and he had not expected that she was right under his nose.
…
Ye Mengmeng was startled. She thought that Gu Wenwan had offended Lu Sijue and upset him. She quickly moved herself between them, blocking their views of each other. Then, she said to Lu Sijue, "Mr. Lu, let me escort you."
Lu Sijue paused, looking over Ye Mengmeng's head at Gu Wenwan.
Gu Wenwan had already realized she had messed up. She slid off the table and dashed toward the ward swiftly, her fluffy ponytails waving in the air, and she was gone in a few seconds.
A barely visible frown creased his brow – was she avoiding him? Was this the reason for her long silence?
"Mr. Lu?"
Lu Sijue looked down to find Ye Mengmeng waiting for him, drenched in a cold sweat. He followed her towards the elevator.
Once in the car, he ordered his assistant, "Check into that girl from earlier."
…
In less than a minute, Ye Mengmeng returned. Gu Wenwan poked her head out cautiously at the door of his office only after a few minutes.
He glared at Gu Wenwan, "Haven't I told you not to come to our department!" Every time she came, she caused him trouble!
Seeing the crisis resolved, Gu Wenwan strides in and says, "It's none other than your Luo Luo. Seeing you pulling three all-nighters in a row moved her. She cooked pork rib soup for me to bring you."
Upon hearing Ning Luo Luo's name, Ye Mengmeng's face softens at once. She takes over the thermos box, unable to hide her smile.
Gu Wenwan then mischievously starts gossiping, "So… what's the issue with Lu Sijue? He doesn't seem... … Tsk-tsk, there are more and more hollow men nowadays! No wonder he doesn't have any scandals…"
Ye Mengmeng rolls up a medical record and knocks her, "Mr. Lu came looking for me to ask something. It's not what you think! He’s fine, totally fine. He can do it seven times a night."
"Pfft…" Gu Wenwan, covering her head, bursts out laughing, "One minute each time?" She treats her as if she’s silly, who would go to the urologic department for no reason.
Ye Mengmeng picks up the keyboard, furious, "Try talking nonsense again."
Seeing her genuinely pissed off, Gu Wenwan knows there is a confidentiality agreement between the hospital and patients. Talking about a patient's privacy is against the medical ethics, so she quickly backs off.
"Okay, okay, got it. Mr. Lu seven times a night. I need to go to work, bye."
She swiftly turns around, opens the door, and dashes off to the pediatric department.
Gu Wenwan is a senior in the Department of Clinical Medicine of Jiangcheng Medical University. She started her internship at the First People’s Hospital this year, just arrived at the pediatric department rotation this month.
After dealing with the 'bear' kids in pediatrics all afternoon, Gu Wenwan is exhausted. She is just about to leave when her phone rings.
"Gu Wenwan! A director is interested in me, he invited me to meet tonight, I need a manager."
On the other end of the phone is Gu Wenwan's best friend and landlord, Ning Luoluo, a minor performer in the entertainment industry.
Ning Luoluo is new to the industry and is frank by nature. She doesn't accept hidden rules, hence at the age of 22, she has yet to be signed by a company. Gu Wenwan has played the role of a manager for her before, so she answers concisely: "Got it, I'll be right there."
Gu Wenwan goes home, changes her clothes, and gets a taxi to the venue.
"Ruowushi" is the most famous pub in Jiang City with three floors. The first floor is a dance floor and a bar, while the second and third floors are comprised of two rings of private rooms. The reputed owner of the place is the popular actress, Ranying Ruowu, which explains why it is frequented by many entertainment circle celebrities, and even has more starstruck super fans swarming about.
Ning Luoluo hasn't arrived yet, so Gu Wenwan decided to head to the restroom to touch up her makeup while waiting for her.
Just as Gu Wenwan was applying her lipstick, she saw a narrow slit opening in the cubicle right opposite her in the mirror. A pair of shiny little eyes darted from side to side inside it, looking sneaky and mischievous.
Probably some child who left home to chase after celebrities - the fans nowadays are getting younger and younger.
She pretended not to have seen anything and went out after finishing with her makeup.
Once the person in the cubicle realized that everybody had left the restroom, they finally opened the door and stepped out.
Gu Wenwan, leaning against the restroom door and folding her arms, watched a small child, about one meter tall, with eyes wide-opened in fear, looking scared out of its wits.
However, this little rascal quickly realized that Gu Wenwan was not with the people who were chasing him, so he quickly calmed down and tried to leave the restroom.
Gu Wenwan stood in front of him, arguing with righteousness, "You're a little boy; why are you in the women's bathroom? What were you hiding in the restroom for? Where are your mom and dad?"
It was rather late, and it was not safe for a child to be wandering around in a mixed crowd at a pub. Gu Wenwan, driven by her sense of justice, decided to save the lost little lamb.
The boy was initially calm, but his expression suddenly changed when he heard the last sentence. He raised his hand and pointed at her, about to tell her to mind her own business, when he felt a sharp pain.
Gu Wenwan noticed a deep cut on his index finger, from which blood was dripping. Driven by a professional impulse, she quickly went over to him, took out a small first aid kit from her bag, and seized his hand to treat the wound quickly.
"Why weren't you careful when opening the door? It must hurt a lot. Luckily, you bumped into me..." The corner of the restroom cubicle door lock is a bit too sharp for a child's soft skin.
