Chapter 7: Twice
Cheng Xiaoxiao's back-to-back work at the hospital had exhausted her, and she had almost forgotten about Zhong Xiaochuan and the rumors surrounding him. When she was finally able to return to He Yao's apartment, all she wanted to do was fall asleep. However, even in her dreams, Zhong Xiaochuan's shadow lingered, making it difficult to calm her mind.
The next day, Cheng Xiaoxiao is woken up by He Yao's concern, her roommate hands her a cup of coffee and asks if she's eating. Cheng Xiaoxia's exhaustion leaves her with no time to think about anything else, she just wants to rest as soon as possible. But He Yao's concern reminds her that even though she is a werewolf, she needs human warmth and friendship.
He Yao's emotions of lost love and her concern for Zhong Xiaochuan make Cheng Xiaoxiao's feelings even more complicated. She tries to explain Zhong Xiaochuan's situation to He Yaoyao, but He Yaoyao's stubbornness and emotional devotion make Cheng Xiao Xiao realize that she needs to find a way to solve the problem.
Cheng Xiaoxia's job continues to be challenging as she is assigned to the neurosurgery department and works with Director Wu Haixin. This director is the attending physician for Zhong Xiaochuan's mother, which makes Cheng Xiao Xiao uneasy as she will inevitably have more interactions with Zhong Xiaochuan.
During a day at the hospital, Cheng Xiaoxia meets Zhang Hao, a new intern who seems a bit shy and nervous. Cheng Xiaoxia tries to ease his pressure by making friendly exchanges, but inside she is thinking about how to deal with the complicated relationship with Zhong Xiaochuan.
The tension reaches its peak when Cheng Xiaoxiao has an unexpected encounter with Zhong Xiaochuan in the elevator room. Zhong Xiaochuan's provocation and Cheng Xiao Xiao's resistance demonstrate the complex power game between the two werewolves. Zhong Xiaochuan's physical strength and Cheng Xiaoxia's spirit of resistance collide in the confined space of the elevator, and their interactions are filled with the unique instincts and wildness of werewolves.
Zhong Xiaochuan's sudden departure, due to an urgent phone call, leaves Cheng Xiaoxiao confused and frustrated. She realizes that despite her attempts to keep her distance, the connection between her and Zhong Xiaochuan is much deeper than she thought.
In the evening, Cheng Xiaoxiao meets Zhong Xiaochuan again on the bus home. Their conversation is full of puns and innuendo. Cheng Xiaoxia tries to keep her ground, but Zhong Xiaochuan's charm and confidence are too much for her to resist.
Back home, Cheng Xiao Xiao finds He Yao suffering from insomnia due to her emotional problems. Her roommate's infatuation with Zhong Xiaochuan makes Cheng Xiao Xiao uneasy, and she decides to reveal the true situation between her and Zhong Xiaochuan to He Yao at the right time.
Cheng Xiaoxiao's night is once again interrupted by Zhong Xiaochuan, this time by his sudden appearance in her bathroom. The tension between them reaches a new c****x in the privacy of their space. Zhong Xiaochuan's provocations and Cheng Xiao Xiao's resistance demonstrate the complex emotional entanglement between the two werewolves.
He Yao's return interrupts their confrontation, and Cheng Xiaoxia takes the opportunity to retreat to her room, her mood as wild and confused as a wolf in a storm. She knows that she needs to find a way to resolve her issues with Zhong Xiaochuan, while also dealing with He Yao's expectations of her feelings.
That night, Cheng Xiaoxia lay in bed, her body and mind feeling exhausted. She knew that as a werewolf, she had to face her emotions while also maintaining her independence and freedom. She closed her eyes and tried to find peace in her dreams, but Zhong Xiaochuan's shadow still lingered in the depths of her mind.
