For the first time in her life, after touching Ning Zhiyi's legendary eight-pack, she had the most outrageous, utterly unprofessional thought she'd ever had since becoming a doctor.
She spent the next three days repenting, then decided to quit her job to atone.
When Coach Ning heard his daughter was unemployed, he invited her to join the university basketball team as its team doctor.
On her first day, she saw the handsome-to-an-unreasonable-degree younger brother Coach Ning had mentioned... and his glistening, strangely familiar eight-pack.
Isn't that the abs of my dreams?!
"Sister Ning, have we met somewhere before?"
She covered her eyes, too embarrassed to look at him, but cleverly left a big gap between her fingers. "You've got the wrong person."

After becoming the team doctor, Ning Zhiyi got to see the vigorous young men sweating it out every day.
Sitting in the stands with a handful of sunflower seeds, she cracked them as she sighed:
"Now this is what women should be watching."
"Their legs are longer than my life."
"Girls these days have it so good."
Suddenly, a hand covered her eyes from behind. The familiar scent of morning dew, along with the young man's distinctive vitality, enveloped her.
Ning Zhiyi guessed, "Chi Zui?"
The young man whispered in her ear, his low words striking her tingling nerves: "I've got a friend who likes you."

After winning the league finals and earning both the individual MVP award and the top scorer title, Chi Zui gave an interview.
The reporter asked what he most wanted to do now.
Chi Zui kissed his trophy. "Take my honors and propose to the woman I love most."
The reporter noticed Coach Ning glaring beside him and asked if he had anything to say to thank the coach.
Chi Zui nodded. "Thank you, Father-in-law."
A teammate grabbed the reporter's microphone. "I'm heartbroken. The woman I like is now my captain's sister-in-law..."
Far away at the hospital, exhausted and barely conscious after a night shift, Ning Zhiyi watched the live interview and jolted upright on her deathbed.
"Loving you is like taking expired medicine: it can't cure anything." By Chi Zui
