Could You Please Like Me?

Shi Yan first met Zhou Mu at the hospital. He was like a river of stars stretching for thousands of miles, suddenly lighting up her entire world. On the 60th day after meeting Zhou Mu, she asked him, "Dr. Zhou, could you try liking me?" He replied, "I can't." On the 90th day after meeting Zhou Mu, she asked him again, "Dr. Zhou, could you at least think about whether you might like me just a little?" On the 120th day after meeting Zhou Mu, she asked him again, "Dr. Zhou, could you..." This time Zhou Mu didn't let her finish. He shot back with those two words: "I can't." Suddenly, her heart gave a few twinges. It hurt a little. Then one day... Shi Yan gazed at him with her dewy eyes. "Dr. Zhou, can I like you now?" Zhou Mu: "Yes. For the rest of your life." Shi Yan: "Okay." Then, one day, someone saw Zhou Mu pinning the girl he'd rejected three times against the wall of his office and kissing her. And he was kissing her pretty fiercely. An outspoken young woman and a doctor who's aloof on the outside but different underneath There'll be a little angst! But it's mostly sweet, so please don't read if that's not your thing!
