Chapter 99 Reunion

Lin Xian’s tone was very calm, showing no emotion. She just picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine. Her alcohol tolerance is no longer as bad as it was in the past.

Jian Shiya glared at Shen Mengnan and said, “Why do you have to say this when we’re having dinner? Let’s go back and sleep in separate rooms tonight.”

Shen Mengnan said with a bitter face, “He helped me solve such a big problem, so I have to help him.”

Lin Xian knew that Shen Mengnan and Jiang Yunian had always had a private relationship. When Shen Mengnan returned to Beijing to open a private hospital, some of the new drugs he used were developed by Jiang Yunian’s company for clinical trials.

Under the light and shadow, Jian Shiya and Shen Mengnan were playing with each other, and Lin Xian felt that time seemed to have left no trace.

They are still in love, and although they have quarrels, it never affects their relationship.

“The project you followed up on has entered the expert review stage, and Jiang Yunian is one of the judges.”

Lin Xian’s eyes moved slightly, “I withdrew from that project.”

Shen Mengnan was very surprised. “Why did you quit? Aren’t you very optimistic about this project? You said it could be successfully completed and there is hope for a breakthrough in cancer.”

“I found something I wanted to do more.”

Lin Xian has hardly stopped for a moment in the five years since she returned to Beijing. She only rests for five or six hours a day and even dreams about performing surgery.

She wanted to live a different way.

Since both are about saving lives, Doctors Without Borders may be more suitable for her.

At least I can see a wider world.

“Leaving Jing City?”

Lin Xian nodded, “We’ll set off in two days.”

Shen Mengnan murmured to himself, “It’s Chinese New Year, why are you still leaving?”

Jian Shiya pinched Shen Mengnan again and cursed in a low voice: “Why are you bringing up something else?”

Lin Xian just smiled and said nothing.

In recent years, Lin Xian has chosen to be on duty at the hospital during the Spring Festival so that colleagues who really have families can go home for reunions.

One year, Chen Ji came to see her and wanted her to go home with him to see Chen Changming.

Lin Xian looked at Chen Ji, whose hair was cut into a buzz cut and had a scar on his face, and could only sigh that time was merciless.

He said that when he sniped Jiang Yunian, he was retaliated wildly by the other party. The family business accumulated by his family had long been in disarray and was soon eaten up by his relatives. Now he started over and lived a down-to-earth life.

Lin Xian only then realized that the widely circulated news about Jiang Yunian’s wedding was a misunderstanding caused by Zhou Jiatong and Chen Ji.

But it doesn’t matter anymore.

That winter was the only time she had a family reunion dinner.

Chen Changming has Alzheimer’s disease, and his secretary ran away with his money. Now he can only hire a nanny to take care of him. During the Chinese New Year, the nanny went home and the house became extremely deserted.

All he kept saying was “Xiaoying, Xiaoying”.

Lin Xian fed him the food, but he spit it out with his mouth pursed, leaving a large wet puddle on the ground.

Chen Ji knelt on the ground and wiped the floor, complaining.

She left quietly, leaving behind an envelope containing the project bonus she had just received.

People go through life in a hurry, reaching highs and falling to the bottom. There are many people who are more miserable than her.

Lin Xian stared out the window unconsciously. When she came to her senses, she found that a black figure had appeared outside.

It was just a figure from behind, but it made her heart suddenly rise, and her heartbeat was beating wildly, deafening.

Half of his body was hidden in the darkness, his long black coat was straight, and the halo of light from the yellow street lamp shone on one side of the coat, making him look desolate and bleak.

He seemed to be talking to someone and didn’t pay any attention to this side.

Lin Xian quickly looked away, drank the wine in the glass, and suppressed her rising and falling emotions.

“Order whatever you want to eat. I’m going to the bathroom.”

After Lin Xian left her seat, Shen Mengnan called Jiang Yunian, “What’s going on? Why aren’t you here yet? He left soon.”

Jiang Yunian’s magnetic voice penetrated, “I’m outside.”

“Damn, it’s so cold outside, what are you thinking.” Shen Mengnan was about to go out to pick him up, but was stopped by Jian Shiya, “Don’t go, if they want to be cold, then they can be cold.”

“Wife, when we got married, you didn’t have this attitude when people gave you gifts.”

“I don’t care. I am just a double standard. He bullies my best friend. He is a scumbag.”

Shen Mengnan was speechless and could only silently excuse himself in his heart: Jiang Yunian, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but my wife and children are more important.

Who made Jian Shiya pregnant?

When Lin Xian came out of the bathroom, she bumped head-on into the person who broke in.

When the familiar refreshing fragrance penetrated into Lin Xian’s nose, there was no way to avoid it.

Jiang Yunian held her arm, his voice steady and gentle: “Sorry, does it hurt?”

Lin Xian was wearing a black sweater dress and a beret today, which was very different from her previous style. Jiang Yunian probably didn’t recognize her.

She buried her head in silence and simply acted like an ostrich.

However, she heard a very light laugh.

The memories overlapped with the scene before her eyes, and she seemed to have returned to the first time she went to Hong Kong City. At that time, Jiang Yunian also smiled like this in the elevator.

Lin Xian complained in a low voice: “What’s so funny.”

The moment she raised her eyes, Jiang Yunian’s sharp gaze penetrated the high wall of her heart, as if it wanted to explore deep into her soul.

Lin Xian was locked in his gaze, unable to move at all, and felt her breathing begin to tighten.

Jiang Yunian took his hand back, politely and gentlemanly, “It’s nothing funny, I just thought of some past events.”

His eyes dropped down, naturally taking in Lin Xian’s full view: her tall figure, plump lips, fair skin with a healthy pink tint, and her slim-fitting skirt that accentuated her curvaceous figure.

Nothing has changed since five years ago, except that my hair has been cut shorter.

“Why did you cut your hair short?”

Lin Xian had thought about meeting Jiang Yunian again many times.

The only thing that wasn’t happening was what was happening right before his eyes. Outside the restaurant’s bathroom, he asked her why she cut her hair like an old friend.

Fortunately, she had already mastered the skill of not showing her emotions, and she replied with a faint smile: “My hair is mine, I can cut it if I want.”

After saying that, she raised her foot to leave, but Jiang Yunian took a step forward and his tall figure blocked her way.

“I have something to tell you.”

Jiang Yunian’s presence was extremely strong, and his voice came down from above her head, penetrating into Lin Xian’s eardrum and irritating her skin.

After not seeing each other for such a long time, her body actually reacted just by hearing his voice.

The inexplicable emotion made Lin Xian feel ashamed and angry. She gritted her teeth and said, “Sorry, I don’t want to listen.”

“What if I don’t let you?”

Lin Xian raised her eyes, her gaze was cold and expressionless, and she said, “Sir, please respect yourself.”

With just one word, “Sir”, Jiang Yunian was classified as a stranger.

Jiang Yunian finally understood what Shen Mengnan meant when he said that it was not easy.

Yes, in five years, things and people have changed.

If his mother had not suffered a sudden heart attack that year, he would have rushed to Beijing as soon as he was discharged from the hospital and explained everything clearly.

But there is no if in life, he can’t just abandon his loved ones and run away.

That would be not a responsible person, so how could he promise her that he would take good care of her?

Since he chose to come here this time, he was determined to win her back.

“Lin Xian, what are you doing here? Who are you having dinner with?”

Lin Xian looked at the person behind Jiang Yunian, her eyes soft, and greeted him with a smile, “Brother, someone is blocking my way, please help me.”
