56 You Sleep With Me (1/2)

She stopped in her tracks and turned back instinctively. There he was, dressed in his white coat with a smile plastered on his long face; Chang Ming walked towards her smiling broadly.

”Liling, what brings you here? ” He asked as he peeped into the transparent glass window of the ward, a frown appeared on his face and he immediately shifted his gaze back to her.

She knew he had already seen her dad, so it was irrelevant lying to him about it. Liling smiled a little and walked away from the door.

Chang Ming followed behind her, she led him to the verandah on the floor and stopped when she had successfully left the busy area.

”What happened?” Chang Ming was now very anxious to hear her out. His frown deepened when he noticed her pale look.

Liling hesitated for a while, obviously because she was contemplating whether or not to tell him. In the end she decided to, maybe he could be of help.

”My father needs a surgery... ” The tears she had been holding back were forcing themselves out. She swallowed hard and continued sadly.

”They said he needs a million yuan.. ”

A gentle breeze blew across their faces as silence engulfed them.

Chang Ming was quite taken aback. He didn't know that it was as grievous as that, that instant he wanted to tell her he would give her the money but his thoughts wandered back to two weeks ago when he came to see her.

Liling didn't actually tell her roommates the true story. That day Chang Ming had asked her out for a dinner but she turned him down.

When he sensed that she was not going to budge, he went on to tell her that he was interested in her and that she should give him a chance.
