Chapter 1086 Idiot’s Dream
Ji Ling thought about it. It’s not like she hadn’t thought about this question before, but when it really came to this point, she hesitated again.

She raised her head and looked at Lu Jingxing. She knew that Lu Jingxing wanted her to let go of her worries and didn't want her to have any regrets. However, she still shook her head firmly: "I don't want to go..."

Lu Jingxing had wiped his hair dry. He put down the towel and rubbed Ji Ling's head: "Well, I'll do as you say..."

Ji Ling smiled at him and nodded gently: "When that day comes, and I have figured it out, or I feel forgiven, I will go."

"I'm sorry, I seem to have become a burden to you." Lu Jingxing apologized quickly.

"No, no, I know you are doing this for my own good. I am actually very conflicted, but I haven't thought it through yet. And, as you said, she did call me a lot and sent me a lot of messages, and I occasionally answered or replied, but I don't want to face her now..." Ji Ling quickly shook her head, fearing that Lu Jingxing would feel burdened by this.

Both of them were thinking about each other, but they had not communicated enough in recent days. Or perhaps Ji Ling did not want to communicate about this issue and chose to avoid it deliberately, which led to misunderstandings between the two.

Lu Jingxing hugged Ji Ling gently: "I know, it's all over, and it will get better and better."

Ji Ling buried her head in his chest and hummed inaudibly. Her eyes were already wet. She had thought that she would never forgive her parents again, but could she really never think about them again? In fact, she couldn't do it.

Speaking of the Chinese New Year, it’s over in the blink of an eye.

Yang Pei and Lu Yin's wedding was held on the eighth day of the first lunar month.

On the sixth day of the New Year, the doorbell rang before Lu Jingxing and Ji Ling went out.

Ji Ling ran over to open the door. As soon as the door opened, she screamed: "Wow, why are you back? Why didn't you say hello..."

Lu Jingxing, who was in the kitchen, heard her scream and came out: "Who is it?"

"La la la la, look who I am..." Misjia jumped into the house.

Seeing the two of them, Lu Jingxing narrowed his eyes in joy: "Damn, why did you come back without making any noise?"

Song Yuan came in right after that: "Sijia said she wanted to give you a surprise, I was about to tell you."

Ji Ling and Mi Sijia hugged each other and said, "This is such a big surprise. I thought you wouldn't come back."

"How is that possible? We have to go back to Yang Pei's wedding no matter what..." Song Yuan said with a smile.

"That's right, you are still thoughtful. By the way, what about your wedding?" Ji Ling and Mi Sijia came back to their senses from the surprise and started chatting.

While Mi Sijia was holding a gift for her, she glanced at Song Yuan and said, "We held a Western-style wedding there. Because it was held at the end of the year, we didn't tell you at the time. The time was a bit rushed. In a few days, when Yang Pei's matter is settled, we will treat everyone to a good feast."

Ji Ling hugged Mi Sijia again: "It's really a pity that we didn't get to see the beautiful bride in person."

As they were talking, the two went to Ji Ling's room to talk in private.

Lu Jingxing still had the dish rag in his hand, and he spread his hands: "Wait for me for a moment, it will be ready soon."

Song Yuan put the things in his hand on the ground, followed him into the kitchen, and stood by the cupboard: "How have you been in the past six months?"

After hearing this, Lu Jingxing couldn't help but look up at him: "How are you?"

"It's okay. I'm still adapting. It takes some time." Song Yuan said with a smile.

"It's okay. You can hold on. Not bad. You can pick up such a heavy load just by saying so..." Lu Jingxing looked at him carefully and found that he was smiling from the bottom of his heart. He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"What about you and Lingzi..." Song Yuan asked with a smile.

"I'm not like that anymore. There are always endless surgeries to be done in the store. But, it's like this anyway. I like it. As for Lingzi, we have to wait until she graduates..." After washing the last bowl, Lu Jingxing dried his hands and took off the apron around his waist.

"I feel like you're already like a househusband." Song Yuan smiled as he watched his skillful movements and couldn't help laughing again.

"Being a househusband is something I'm happy about. I also like to cook, but I don't have many opportunities. By the way, how long can you stay this time?" The two talked as they walked towards the living room.

Ba Mao, who walked out of Lu Jingxing's room, was stunned when he suddenly saw Song Yuan.

Song Yuan also happened to see it, opened his hands and called out: "Bamao, come here, do you still recognize me?"

Ba Mao immediately ran over with his tail raised and jumped into his arms.

"Oh, it recognizes me. This little guy seems to be fatter than before." Song Yuan was so happy that he kept combing the little guy's hair.

Bamao, who was shaking his tail with joy, suddenly kicked his legs, jumped off him, turned around and jumped onto Lu Jingxing who was sitting on the sofa.

"What's wrong? Weren't you happy to let me hug you just now? How come you don't recognize me the moment you turn around?" Song Yuan said in confusion, looking at the empty arms.

"Who told you to say that I'm fat? Is that something you can say..." Ji Ling and Mi Sijia walked out of the house together, laughing.

"Ah, Ba Mao, is that so? I can't say you're fat, but isn't this the fact?" Song Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Besides, you're a boy, so what if I say you're fat? You're fat, so what..."

Ba Mao turned his head away with his butt facing him.

"This guy, he really said you were fat and made you angry, he really can't say it, I'll just say it, I'll just say it..." Song Yuan leaned over and pulled Ba Mao up again, holding it tightly to prevent it from running away.

"You are the CEO of a listed company, why are you still like a child?" Lu Jingxing couldn't help but laugh at him.

"So what? No matter what I do, I'm still me...right, Ba Mao..." Song Yuan stroked Ba Mao. The little guy looked like he had lost all hope in life, which made Mi Sijia run over and stroke him twice.

Then she took the gift on the ground and put it on the coffee table: "These two are for Lu Chen and Lu Xi, please help me bring them to them..."

"Thank you. This game console...you guys spent too much money on it..." Lu Jingxing looked at the two of them in disbelief, holding a new game console.

"If I'm going to give them a gift, I'll definitely give them a good one. This is not only a game console but also a very good learning machine. It just depends on how you use it." Mi Sijia smiled.

"Thank you..." Lu Jingxing waved towards the two of them.

"Well, you guys make your own arrangements today. I'll drive the car away and we'll go see the bride." Simijia raised the keys in her hand.

"Why not together?" Song Yuan asked, standing up.

"Hey, we are going to accompany the bride, and you guys should go to see your groom. Why do you have to go together?" Mi Sijia said casually.

"Okay, then let's go to Yang Pei's house and see if we can help." Song Yuan looked at Lu Jingxing.

Lu Jingxing smiled and nodded: "Okay, we were planning to go to his house today."

So, the four of them split into two groups.

Miska drove their own car.

Lu Jingxing drove his own car and prepared to go to Yang Pei's house with Song Yuan.

Just after starting the car, Song Yuan said, "It's still early, why don't we go to the second store first."

"You're thinking about Black Tiger and the General, right?" Lu Jingxing said with a smile.

"That's true. I even dream of taking them for a run. I wonder if those little guys miss me." Song Yuan smiled and shook his head.

"Of course they have. You used to take them out for a run every day. Now, we also take them out, but it's good enough if each of us can run once or twice a week. Some time ago, Lao Yang would take them out to play from time to time. During this period..." Before he finished speaking, the car arrived at the door of the second store. The car stopped and the two got out.

The store hadn't opened yet, but the door was unexpectedly open.

"It should be the staff on duty who opened the door." Lu Jingxing said.

Seeing the two people coming, Liao Xiangyu, who was in the hall, showed a surprised smile: "Brother Song is back, when did you come back?"

Song Yuan smiled and patted Liao Xiangyu on the shoulder: "Happy New Year, you arrived early this morning, you are at work so early."

Liao Xiangyu laughed and said, "I'm on duty today. I came back for Brother Yang's wedding."

Song Yuan smiled and nodded. Then he walked around Liao Xiangyu and said, "I'll go check on Hei Hu and the others."

"Okay, they all miss you." After Liao Xiangyu said this, Song Yuan burst into laughter.

Lu Jingxing did not go to the kennel with Song Yuan, but started chatting with Liao Xiangyu.

He handed Liao Xiangyu a red envelope.

Liao Xiangyu chuckled: "There are red envelopes here."

"It's a New Year's red envelope, just as a token of my appreciation. By the way, I think someone has been assigned to be on duty these days." Lu Jingxing saw that there seemed to be another figure behind him: "Who is that?"

"Oh, it's not my turn on duty today. I just haven't been here for a few days and I was worried so I came over to check on him. I was thinking of going to Brother Yang's place tomorrow to see if there is anything else to be done in the store." Liao Xiangyu said with a smile.

Lu Jingxing came every day to give red envelopes to the staff on duty in the store and expressed his gratitude to them.

This is the first day of the new year when I saw Liao Xiangyu. He had gone back to his hometown before and only came today, so Lu Jingxing came to make up for it.

In previous Chinese New Years, they had never had such a long holiday. But this time it happened to be Yang Pei's wedding, which was a big event. Moreover, they would be very busy these days. Without them in the store, it would be difficult to handle if something happened. So, Lu Jingxing simply set the opening time on the second day after Yang Pei's wedding, which was the ninth day of the first lunar month.

In this way, anyone in the store who wants to attend the wedding can go.

After all, we have been working together for so long.

Yang Pei also sent invitations to everyone and told them that they didn’t need to accept red envelopes and that they should just come and join in the fun.

In this way, everyone can feel free of burden and have fun together. After all, many people in the store are part-time and their salaries are not very high. What's more, Yang Pei has worked in the workplace before, and if he accepts a gift now, he may not have the chance to return it in the future.

Therefore, I would like to emphasize again and again that I will not accept any gifts and I only invite everyone to watch the ceremony.

Because of this, my colleagues are looking forward to it.

Even some colleagues who did not need to be on duty went to his house yesterday to see if there was anything they could do to help.

The two chatted for a while, and Song Yuan came out with a satisfied look on his face: "Oh, seeing their legs makes me want to run. I will take them out for a run these few days."

"Okay..." Lu Jingxing said with a long laugh.

When he heard that the two of them were going to Yang Pei's house, Liao Xiangyu quickly said, "Wait for me, I'll go too."

So the three of them went to Yang Pei's house together.

The wedding was very lively. Lu Jingxing and his friends were best men, and Ji Ling and her friends were naturally bridesmaids.

This lively wedding was not officially over until the bridal chamber.

The next day, the store resumed normal business.

The first day of opening is the busiest time in the store. Even though it is not the end of the first lunar month, the owners are not as reluctant to seek medical treatment as humans are when they are sick. On the contrary, because it has been such a long time and it is the Chinese New Year, some animals may suffer from gastrointestinal discomfort, so the owners are more proactive in coming to the store.

Lu Jingxing stayed in the office all day and didn't leave the store.

Treating one patient after another kept him so busy that he barely had time to drink water.

The year is over.

Ji Ling is going back to school again.

Lu Jingxing sent her to the airport again.

"Go whatever path you want to take, I will always wait for you..." Lu Jingxing suddenly said before they parted.

Ji Ling suddenly raised his head: "You..."

"I know you want to pursue a master's degree, so just do what you want. You're so outstanding, if you change your mind just to come back... that would be a pity. We are still young. Besides, if you really want to, you can still get married while studying. Don't worry, I'm your backer, not your hindrance..." Lu Jingxing smiled and tapped her nose.

Because the little girl's nose turned red, which was a sign that she wanted to cry.

Ji Ling hugged him and said, "Jingxing, why are you so nice?"

"Silly girl, okay, let's go. We're about to board the plane." The two were reluctant to part.

Lu Jingxing accidentally saw Ji Ling looking up information about graduate students. He was also struggling for two days, but soon decided that he must not be the one who holds her back.

He was confident that no matter how outstanding Ji Ling was, he would catch up with her.

Back in the car, looking at the planes soaring in the sky, he smiled and shook his head gently, "Come on, come on, let's do it together."

As business at several stores continued to improve, each store continued to recruit new physician assistants.

He would give classes to everyone from time to time, and these doctors and assistants made great progress.

He no longer needed to see patients, but he still saw patients in the store one day a week.

Including the port city.

The store in Gangcheng has become even more popular as a result, as it is already facing the situation where the store is too small and needs to expand urgently.

Because of this matter, Lu Jingxing went to Hong Kong City many times.

The New Year had just passed, and Zhao Jingming was not as busy as before, so he actually went with him to look for stores several times.

But because the store they wanted to find was too large, they never found a suitable one.

Finally, Zhao Jingming said, "Let's just stop looking for it and build it."

"This is a port city where every inch of land is valuable. Are you kidding me?" Lu Jingxing felt that Zhao Jingming was just dreaming.

"I'm serious. Come on, I'll take you to a place..." He slapped his thigh and pulled Lu Jingxing away.
