[The "script" in the title is jargon from the fortune-telling business. It means a life script and generally refers to one's Four Pillars of Destiny.]
Recently, Xu Xingye has felt that the young doctor of traditional Chinese medicine hired by the hospital as an external consultant looks at him strangely.
Unlike the admiration or curiosity in the eyes of his colleagues and patients, her gaze feels more like she's fixed on him.
As if she's looking at something that already belongs to her.
He frowns, dismissing it as an illusion brought on by several days of consecutive shifts.
Until he leaves a hospital gathering early, only for a hand to grab his wrist.
Xu Xingye turns around and meets Tang Suhe's tipsy eyes.
"What is it?"
"Nothing. I just want to hold your hand." She says it as if it's perfectly reasonable.
Under the dim lights, Xu Xingye's neck turns bright red. He yanks his hand away. "Why would I hold your hand?"
Tang Suhe answers without thinking, "Do I need a reason to hold my future husband's hand?"
Xu Xingye can hardly believe his ears. "...You're drunk. Do you even know what nonsense you're saying?"
Realizing she'd let the secret slip, Tang Suhe shuts her eyes, falls over, and pretends to faint.
She was born into a family of metaphysical practitioners. Since childhood, she's studied not only traditional Chinese medicine, but also the occult arts, including the Eight Trigrams and Four Pillars of Destiny.
She's long understood that while fate can't be changed, you can find the path most favorable to you within its set course.
And Xu Xingye's birth chart is the most auspicious for her.
More astonishingly, their fortunes over the next several decades, along with their love life and children, all match perfectly.
According to the books, theirs is a superior match, a union made in heaven.
Xu Xingye thinks she looks at him as if he's already hers?
He's not wrong.
He is.
-
After that day, Xu Xingye finds himself paying special attention to the young doctor of traditional Chinese medicine.
It's not the kind of concern he feels for family or friends. It's more like...
He frowns, convinced he must be going crazy.
