Chapter 245 Going on a blind date
After Gu Ranle and Song Yu left the planning company, they returned to the clinic.
The coffin that was originally placed in the hall of the clinic had been taken away, and even the people who had been gathering at the door to watch the excitement had dispersed.
After a few days of chaos, the clinic finally had a moment of peace.
The turmoil of the past few days has discouraged patients who originally came to seek medical treatment and medicine, and the clinic now seems deserted.
On weekdays, there are always people coming and going here, and the doctors are very busy, but at this moment, this rare tranquility makes people feel mixed emotions.
Although the troublemakers had left, the lingering bad luck seemed to linger in every corner of the clinic.
At this time, Dr. Chen got a copper brazier from somewhere, filled it with dried mugwort, peach branches and cypress leaves, and was busy lighting a fire.
A faint fragrance spread as the flames jumped.
The medical staff of the clinic consciously lined up in a row, ready to jump over the fire basin to get rid of the bad luck as instructed by Doctor Chen.
They all looked solemn, as if they were performing a sacred ceremony.
"Doctor Song, you're back just in time. Come and get rid of the bad luck." Doctor Chen spotted Song Yu who had just walked into the clinic and greeted him hurriedly.
He reminded everyone again: "When you step over the fire basin later, remember to chant 'Heavenly fire purifies the earth, and all filth is kept away'. Did you remember?"
The medical staff nodded one after another, indicating that they had kept it in mind.
I've said it eight hundred times, it's hard not to remember it.
Gu Ranle, who was standing aside, watched this scene and couldn't help but curl up a smile.
She thought the scene was funny and ridiculous, but then she thought again that it was a kind of psychological comfort after all, and everyone needed this kind of comfort at the moment.
There were no patients in the clinic today. After the "get rid of bad luck" ceremony, Song Yu simply announced that everyone could go home early and have a rest.
He locked the door of the clinic and left with Gu Ranle.
On the way, Gu Ranle suddenly asked, "Uncle, do you remember what I told you when I came back last time?"
Song Yu was stunned when he heard this, and then frowned.
He muttered to himself: You said so many things when you came back last time, how would I know which one you are referring to now?
But looking at Gu Ranle's smiling yet malicious expression, he intuitively felt that this was definitely not a good thing to say.
He tried hard to search his mind for the conversation they had when Gu Ranle left last time, but unfortunately, he could not remember anything.
"Uncle, you can't remember it?"
The smile on Gu Ranle's face became brighter and brighter, but this smile inexplicably made Song Yu feel uneasy.
"Niece, can you please not smile at me like that? I have a weak heart and I'm afraid I can't handle it."
Song Yu covered his chest, trying to get Gu Ranle to put away the smile that made him feel uneasy.
However, Gu Ranle just snorted coldly and then put away the smile on his face.
She started the car engine, stepped on the accelerator, and with a "boom", the car rushed out.
Song Yu sat in the passenger seat. The seat belt seemed to have lost its function. He had to hold the door handle tightly with both hands, shouting, "Niece, are you trying to murder your uncle?"
Gu Ranle glanced at him, a fake smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and then she slowed down the car.
"Uncle, don't worry. How could I bear to murder you? Not only will I not murder you, I will also dress you up nicely."
"Dress up?" Song Yu shook his head, looking reluctant. "I don't think I need to dress up. I'm fine the way I am."
"I don't care what you think, I care what I think." Gu Ranle said firmly.
There was an unquestionable arrogance in her tone, which left Song Yu speechless for a moment.
The car continued to speed forward, and the atmosphere inside the car gradually fell into a brief silence.
Song Yu's eyes were fixed on the scenery flashing by outside the window, but in his heart he was constantly thinking about the real intention behind Gu Ranle's words "dress up well".
The more I thought about it, the more outrageous it seemed, and I couldn't help but shudder.
"Le Le, what are you up to? Tell me the truth. I'm very nervous right now." Song Yu finally couldn't help but ask.
Gu Ranle smiled lightly but did not answer him directly.
Along the way, Song Yu's heart was like duckweed blown by the wind, ups and downs, difficult to settle.
After making many twists and turns, the car finally stopped steadily in front of a private styling studio that looked quite high-end.
"Get out of the car."
Gu Ranle parked the car, turned his head to look at Song Yu, who was sitting in the passenger seat with a slightly pale face, frowned slightly, and raised his hand to touch his forehead.
"I don't have a fever." She said to herself.
"Uncle, you're not really worried about what I'll do to you, are you? Look at how cowardly you look, is it really that serious?" Gu Ranle said in a teasing tone.
Song Yu rolled his eyes at her unhappily, opened the car door and got out.
Gu Ranle also got out of the car and walked straight towards the styling room.
"I was wondering why my left eyelid kept twitching when I woke up this morning. It turns out that a distinguished guest has come to visit us! Welcome Miss Gu, you really bring honor to my little shop!"
As Gu Ranle just walked to the door, a tall young man with fashionable long hair and wearing a well-tailored three-piece suit came up to her with a smile on his face.
His young face, full of wrinkles due to smile, looked particularly funny.
Gu Ranle pointed at Song Yu who was following behind her and said, "He's going on a blind date tonight. You should dress him up well. If we can hold hands tonight, I will pay double the fee."
When Song Yu heard this, he was stunned.
"When did I say blind date?"
and many more!
He seemed to suddenly remember something.
I met the second son of the Gu family a while ago. When they were chatting, the second son of the Gu family complained to him that he had to find a girlfriend as soon as possible, so as to avoid waiting for someone to come back and arrange a hundred blind dates for him in a day. Just thinking about a hundred blind dates in a day made his scalp tingle.
When Gu Laoer talked about this, he looked like he was about to cry, and he even made a good joke about it.
He also patted Gu Laoer on the shoulder and said, "Laoer, you are really not young anymore. It would be a good thing for you to find a girlfriend and settle down as soon as possible."
Who could have thought that these words would now hit him hard like a boomerang.
Thinking of this, Song Yu quickly explained: "Le Le, did you make a mistake? The person who wants to go on a blind date is your second brother, have you forgotten? You have to arrange a hundred blind dates for your second brother every day."
When Gu Ranle heard this, a sly smile flashed across his face.
"That's right. You are going on a blind date tonight. My second brother is not in a hurry, he is still young. But you should be very anxious, after all, you will be forty soon. Although men are in their prime at forty-one, but at the same time, at the age of forty, all aspects of physical fitness decline, especially in certain aspects. You are a doctor, you must know more than me. So, after discussing with my second brother, the most urgent thing is to find a partner for you."
You two discussed it?
Have you two asked me what I want?
Song Yu didn't plan to argue with Gu Ranle. He couldn't win the argument, and if they started fighting, he wouldn't be able to defeat her either. It would be better for him to just leave!
Thinking of this, Song Yu turned around and walked towards the car with big strides.
Unfortunately, just as he grabbed the car door handle, Gu Ranle locked the car with a "beep".
She proudly shook the car keys in her hand and said, "Uncle, running away won't solve any problems. You'd better come in and let the stylist tidy you up. I don't want to do it myself, for fear of hurting your old bones."
The stylist's eyes rolled and he immediately stepped forward and grabbed Song Yu's arm.
"If Miss Gu hadn't told me, I would have thought you were her brother. Are you almost forty? I think you're thirty at most. Leave it to me. I promise to make you look brand new and charming tonight, or at least look younger than you are for a nap!"
As the stylist spoke, he pulled Song Yu into the styling room.
Song Yu is usually busy with work and is not one who pays much attention to his appearance. He is not sloppy, but he is definitely not refined.
He was forced to undergo a major change from head to toe today, and was really exhausted.
From washing your hair to getting a haircut, to choosing clothes and matching shoes, every detail is carefully crafted.
Gu Ranle was drinking tea leisurely on the side, giving some suggestions from time to time.
Finally, with the skillful hands of the stylist, Song Yu appeared in front of the mirror with a brand new look.
He was wearing a neat suit and his hair was neatly combed. He looked energetic and handsome.
Even he himself couldn't help but admire it secretly.
"Not bad, not bad. It seems my old bones can still have a second life." He said jokingly.
Gu Ranle laughed so hard upon hearing this, "Yeah, he's really handsome. I'm a little moved."
Song Yu glared at her and said unhappily, "You are disrespectful. I am your elder! Call me uncle!"
Gu Ranle immediately put on a well-behaved expression and called out sweetly, "Uncle."
Then, she naturally raised her arm, put it on Song Yu's shoulder, patted him, and said with a smile: "Uncle, let's go, your niece will take you to find your aunt."
There are only these two blind date candidates for tonight, and Gu Ranle called at noon and asked senior sister Cheng Yiai to find them for her.
These two people are Cheng Yiai’s best friends. They both broke up last year and the gap between them has lasted for a year.
One is a doctor, thirty years old, mature and steady.
One is a university teacher, 31 years old, with a lively and outgoing personality.
Both of them have done an excellent job of managing their bodies. As for their looks, they can only be considered above average, but they are definitely good-looking.
Cheng Yiai originally planned to meet on two days, but Gu Ranle did not agree.
On the one hand, her time is really limited and she simply can't spare much free time.
On the other hand, she knew Song Yu's personality too well. If this guy was not satisfied with one of them, he might just quit the job and not go.
In order to avoid this situation, Gu Ranle decided to arrange the two blind dates on the same day.
Moreover, today we not only met two people, but also in the same cafe.
However, Gu Ranle had no plans for them to meet. She booked two rooms in advance, with the departure times staggered by two hours.
The first meeting time is set at 5 pm. If it is suitable, we can have dinner together. If it is not suitable, it doesn’t matter, we can still have dinner together.
The second blind date is scheduled for 7pm, so we can have a midnight snack and chat about life, ideals and so on.
"Uncle, don't be nervous. He's also a doctor, and we're in the same profession. I'm sure we'll have a lot in common."
Song Yu didn't say anything, thinking to himself that he really didn't want to find a colleague.
He should be aware of the nature of his job. If he finds a partner who is also a doctor, the two of them probably won't see each other all day long.
But since she had arranged it, he still had to go and meet her so as not to waste her kindness.
