Ambiguous Relationship-Chapter 68 - Pigtail

Translator: MiraiSaesang

The next day after she got off work, Meng Gu said that he is going to get off work late, and so has to eat at the hospital and for her to also go eat first. Chen Ruo Yu agreed and said that after she finishes eating she will go to the hospital to wait for him.

The two made that arrangement and so Chen Ruo Yu went home first. When she headed out to go find Meng Gu, she saw Lu Bao Ni, who was pacing back and forth at the entrance of the apartment complex.

Chen Ruo Yu had a deep impression of Li Bao Ni and so recognized her at a glance. Lu Bao Ni looked hesitant and nervous. When she looked up and saw Chen Ruo Yu, she froze for a while and then suddenly was shocked and turned away.

Chen Ruo Yu wondered what happened to this girl. In the end, Lu Bao Ni did not run far and then suddenly ran back to Chen Ruo Yu and said, "That...please if you meet Zhou Zhe, don't tell him that you saw me."

Chen Ruo Yu subconsciously nodded.

Lu Bao Ni also stressed again: "Don't tell him."

This time Chen Ruo Yu did not nod, she suspiciously looked and Lu Bao Ni, who quickly said, "I did not do anything bad, I just...I just don't want him to know that I came to see him. I mean...I shouldn't have looked for him, it's better that he doesn't know." She was flushed and nervous.

"Oh." Chen Ruo Yu understood this time.

"You promise, you won't tell him?" Lu Bao Ni asked.

"Yes." Chen Ruo Yu agreed.

Lu Bao Ni breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'm going, I'm sorry, goodbye."

Chen Ruo Yu nodded and walked in the same direction she left in, she was going to the bus stop, Lu Bao Ni was also going to the bus stop. The two people walked for a while and realized they were going the same way and politely smiled.

Lu Bao Ni was a little nervous and didn't talk to Chen Ruo Yu when they were waiting at the bus stop. Chen Ruo Yu looked at her and suddenly asked, "Do you like Zhou Zhe?"

Lu Bao Ni was shocked, her face went red and she looked at a loss.

"Oh, I got it." Chen Ruo Yu nodded.

"I...I didn't..." Lu Bao Ni tried to explain, but Chen Ruo Yu's expression showed she didn't seem to believe her, and then she anxiously grabbed her hand, "Don't tell him, please."

Chen Ruo Yu looked at her and thought of her own anxiety and mood when she was originally pursuing Meng Gu and couldn't help aking her, "You coming to see him, did you want to confess?"

Lu Bao Ni looked embarrassed and said, "I...I don't know know what I wanted to say to him when I came."

"You've come, won't you regret it if you go?"

"He...I..." Lu Bao Ni took a long time then said, "He has to go back to his hometown. If I told him this, it seems it will cause trouble for him, he is very kind to others. But if I don't say it, I am afraid I will not have a chance to say it again."

"Then say it."

Lu Bao Ni shook her head, "I still don't want to. My family actually doesn't want me to find someone from outside here, even if I said it, it won't mean anything, moreover, he may not necessarily like me."

"He was not very nervous last time, but he ran to find you."

Lu Bao Ni was a little surprised, she didn't expect Chen Ruo Yu to know about this, "He is very good to everyone. He thought that I had something bad happen and so he was just concerned about it."

Chen Ruo Yu did not what to say. Lu Bao Ni hung her head and did not speak.

After a while, Chen Ruo Yu couldn't help it and said, "Bao Ni, can I call you Bao Ni?"Lu Bao Ni looked up at her and nodded.

Chen Ruo Yu said, "Let me tell you, I originally liked a doctor, his conditions are very good, much better than mine. I hesitated for a long time, afterwards I still summoned up the courage and pursued him."

Lu Bao Ni looked at her and waited for her to continue to talk.

"But he turned me down. I didn't catch him."

"Oh." Lu Bao Ni hung her head and was hit.

"But he later pursued me by himself, we are together now."

"Ah?" Lu Bao Ni looked up with surprise.

Chen Ruo Yu said, "What I mean is, if I didn't courageously pursue him then, there wouldn't be an us today. Although there was a failure in the process, but I still gave myself the opportunity and strived until the end. If you don't try, can you really resign yourself?"

Lu Bao Ni opened her mouth and stared blankly.

At this time, Chen Ruo Yu saw that the bus she was going to take had arrived. She pointed to the bus drawing to stop and said, "I am leaving."

Lu Bao reacted and cried, "Can you give me your number? I have nobody I can talk to."

Chen Ruo Yu gave her the number and then Lu Bao Ni said, "Thank you" and she got on the bus and waved.

Chen Ruo Yu's mood was very good. Who knows the worries of a girl secretly in love? She does.

Chen Ruo Yu wanted to sing again. If Bao Ni is as lucky as her, and finally can be with someone she likes, that's also good. And in this way, Zhou Zhe can find his other world, then her parents will not say anything about her, right? She doesn't know how long she has to wait until she will be daring enough to take Meng Gu home.

Chen Ruo Yu arrived at the hospital and as usual, went to the atrium garden. She called Meng Gu, and Meng Gu said that she had to wait for at least ten minutes for him to come down. Chen Ruo Yu didn't mind and told him to take his time.

When she hung up the phone, she was wandering about alone in the garden. The weather was a little cold and there no flowers in the garden, what remained were branches full of life. Chen Ruo Yu suddenly felt that nature is full of truth. Look, the plants are telling her that the flowers are no longer beautiful, and now finally one looks at the branches that give them support.

Her green branches are better than rotten peach blossoms.

As she was just thinking about it, the corner of her eye caught one of the rotten peach blossoms, moreover, a dazzling one too. Qi Yao was actually wearing a white coat and passing by the atrium with another female doctor.

Chen Ruo Yu was surprised. Did this woman transfer to this hospital? and become colleagues with Meng Gu?

At the same time, Qi Yao also saw her. She seemed to recognize her and stopped in her tracks and looked at her.

That expression.

Chen Ruo Yu thought, "where in life do you not meet by chance, it's just when you meet you want to kick the other." What should be said in this scene of the two of them meeting? She wondered, Does Qi Yao knows about her development with Meng Gu?

Chen Ruo Yu straightened her spine and stared back at Qi Yao. She thought that she as the curent girlfriend must not lose to the ex-girlfriend in having an imposing manner, or where would her family's tyrannosaurus put his face?

However, Qi Yao did not come over to entangle with her, she just deeply stared at her, then followed the footsteps of the other female doctor and walked away.Chen Ruo Yu bit her lip, this is the first time she has seen her since she started her relationship with Meng Gu. Actually, to say that she does not care about this woman, of course, that's impossible. Meng Gu was in a very deep relationship with her, she also knows that it is because of the sentiments from that one that Meng Gu's next two relationships were unsuccessful. It is also because of this that Meng Gu has not settled down and gotten married until he was 30 years old.

Well with such a series of events, this woman is really a cold virus, it seems like it can only make you feel uncomfortable with a stuffy nose and headache, but in fact, it can be fatal if you are not careful.

Chen Ruo Yu touched her bag, Meng Gu's salary card is warming her wallet and calming her heart. The man even gave her his salary card, what is she afraid of.

Mr. Peach blossom forest is so smart, he must have known that the blossoming period of flowers is not long, only the green branches have the ability to be longtime companions.

Chen Ruo Yu secretly cheered for herself in her heart as she stared at the green branches. She wasn't sure how long she was like that when suddenly her head was poked. She turned her head and saw Meng Gu's handsome smile.

"Hey, girlfriend, you are really adorable when you are in a daze."

Ah, sweet words.

Chen Ruo Yu quickly helped him to add on firewood to the fire, "How adorable?"

"As adorable as Chen Ruo Yu."

The answer sounded really good, it seems as if she was praised again. Chen Ruo Yu smiled happily, and then she realized after smiling that he actually said that she was as adorable as when she was in a daze.

Humph! Full of tricks, he didn't praise.

"Dr. Meng, let me remind you that your observation period has not yet passed, and you yesterday you also made a big mistake. Just now I caught a small pigtail, tell me, how do you want to handle it?"

**(Pigtail = shortcoming/evidence of wrongdoing)**

"Just now there was a pigtail?" Meng Gu pretended to be innocent, "Then let's deal with that first, I'll listen, what is it?"

Eh, so relaxed?

This attitude made Chen Ruo Yu feel that she was being somewhat unreasonable. She bit her lip and said, "You and Qi Yao are working in the same place, and you didn't inform me."

"Qi Yao? Oh, out two hospitals are doing a collaboration together, so their hospital has sent some doctors for a short-term study, that's all. Didn't I mention to you last time that I have been having an unusually busy period because of the exchange sessions, you also scolded me that didn't I get enough communication in the exchange sessions and so what am I still looking for you."

"Then you didn't mention the matter about Qi Yao."

Meng Gu was just about to speak, but then his eyes looked passed Chen Ruo Yu.

Chen Ruo Yu's heart stirred, she followed his line of sight and turned her head and saw that Qi Yao was not standing not far from them. 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m

"What's going on with you both? I heard my name." Qi Yao had already taken off her white coat and was wearing a light yellow windbreaker jacket, slim and elegant and her eyes and brow held hints of a smile.

Truly a beauty! Chen Ruo Yu scorned her appearance in her heart, and was even more annoyed with her because of the expression on her face which revealed a kind of "Look, you both are quarreling because of me", that happy expression is truly infuriating.

"Heard your name?" Chen Ruo Yu did not wait for Meng Gu to speak and spoke up first, "Who are you?"

Meng Gu coughed twice after Chen Ruo Yu spoke.

The two women turned their heads together and glared at him, and then turned and stared at each other.

"I am Qi Yao." Qi Yao was fully aware that Chen Ruo Yu was pretending, but it was not good to pull down her face. "We have met at Meng Gu's house, you don't remember? I am an old friend of Dr. Meng, you must have heard of me."

"You are called Qi Yao?" Chen Ruo Yu ignored the old friend bit, but asked again about her name, it seemed as if she had not heard it clearly a moment ago.

Meng Gu coughed twice again.

This time the two women didn't look towards him and just stared at each other.

"That's right, I am Qi Yao." Qi Yao said the sentence, stressing each word. Her figure is tall and she raised her shoulders and had an imposing manner.

Chen Ruo Yu raised her head, but her height and demeanor could not compare to that of the opposite party. She knew that her imposing manner was not as good as the other person's so she did not bother much with this and simply said, "Your name is really strange."

Meng Gu coughed twice again.

Chen Ruo Yu turned to look at him and then turned back to her, "Just now we didn't mention you, you misheard. I was obviously talking about taking medicine. It was taking medicine, not Qi Yao.

**(taking medicine = chi yao...LOL get it?)**

Qi Yao's expression went stiff and Meng Gu burst into laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" Chen Ruo Yu glared at him, "You have been coughing since the beginning, you have to hurry and take medicine."

"Okay, okay, let's go and buy medicine to take." Meng Gu grabbed Chen Ruo Yu's hand and started to walk off, as they were walking he added, "See how bad your mandarin is, taking medicine, Qi Yao, it's unclear what you're saying."

Qi Yao stood behind them and stared at their backs.

MiraiSaesang's Notes: LOL she nicely handled that one, what can you even say after that wordplay beatdown ??...
