Lin Zhixing always knew that her boyfriend's uncle, He Yanchen, was cold-hearted and unapproachable. She had heard that the man was noble, self-controlled, and did not associate with women.
...She wants to know everything about a man, good, bad, and awful.
After hearing so much, she was ready to accept everything.
"That's all I've done about the video. If you don't believe me..." He Yanchen stretched out his voice, "I can take you to see it, but you can only stand outside the yard. Their mental states aren't very good, and I'm afraid you'll get hurt if we get too close."
Although Lin Zhixing is a doctor, he doesn't get sympathy from everyone.
Bullies, there's nothing wrong with that.
What surprised her was that Liu Nian was also one of them and might even play a key role.
The man seemed to understand what she was thinking and explained, "I don't have any other feelings for Liu Nian, but I changed my mind when I met you in the Summer Resort. It was too late to return to China, and the only person I could entrust was Liu Nian."
"I know." Lin Zhixing turned sideways and looked at the man beside him. "Aunt Zhou told you about He Yan's existence and told you that if you weren't good enough, he would replace you with another son."
“…”
"In your opinion, if you want to keep someone, you should be perfect, otherwise you might be abandoned, right?"
Lin Zhixing thought he understood everything.
She knew what the man had been hiding all those years.
Why are you reluctant to talk about the past?
He was simply afraid that she would be like Zhou Qiaohua, who would abandon him without hesitation after discovering that he was not good enough.
He Yanchen lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Lin Zhixing looked at him seriously. "When family ties are so fragile, love is naturally not trustworthy in your eyes, not to mention that person is your mother."
Compared to Zhou Qiaohua, Lin Qin is a very good mother.
When Lin Qin died, Lin Zhixing was not much older than Lin Zian is now.
She has very few memories of her mother.
But after giving birth to Lin Zian, she could better understand her mother's feelings.
The mother may have suffered a lot of harm from He Yanchen's father. In order to protect herself, she chose to compromise and return to the He family.
There was little sunlight outside, making the car warm.
After listening to the woman's words, He Yanchen unconsciously twitched the corners of his mouth, "It's not that I haven't thought about letting you go, but the more I interact with you, the more I want to tie you to my side."
Even if it means using lies, even if it means hiding the past and pretending to be perfect.
I also want to keep her.
The self-righteousness I felt five years ago now seems ridiculous.
Lin Zhixing said, "He Yanchen, I am a living person, not someone's property. I am not willing to be tied to your side just because you say you want to."
"I know." He Yanchen's voice was a little hoarse, "If you don't want to, I won't force you, but..."
"You are very good. If you want to get married, there must be many people who want to marry you."
Lin Zhixing interrupted him, "But I think marriage is a lifelong thing. Everyone wants a perfect partner, but no one in the world is perfect. No matter who you marry, it would be too tiring to pretend for the rest of your life."
"I know."
“People who love you will love you for who you are.”
Lin Zhixing persuaded the man earnestly, word by word.
"Well, you're right." He Yanchen reflected, "I should have believed you before."
I believe she will accept his past and love every bit of him.
"Alright." Lin Zhixing curled his lips. "Actually, from the moment the bomb didn't explode, we were all reborn. Let's not dwell on the past."
He Yanchen turned sideways with a look of surprise on his face.
He should be able to understand the meaning of this sentence.
Lin Zhixing smiled and said, "Since I'm a freshman, I naturally want to be with the right person. This person can be anyone."
It could also be him.
He Yanchen started the car and asked, "Shall we go pick up An An?"
"I'll call Wang Xue. If she's free, I'll invite her to lunch first and then think about how to thank her later."
Lin Zhixing took out his cell phone.
She was really grateful to Wang Xue.
If it weren't for Wang Xue taking care of Lin Zian, she wouldn't be able to stay in the hospital so peacefully these days.
They have been through so many things, but fortunately, Lin Zian knows nothing.
After the call was connected, Lin Zhixing explained the situation.
"You're being discharged from the hospital soon? Why don't you stay a few more days?" Wang Xue's tone was filled with worry. "You don't have to worry about An An, he's so well-behaved. All the young lawyers in our law firm like him very much."
"I'm really well now. I'm going to get moldy if I stay in the ward any longer." Lin Zhixing said with a smile, "Let's go pick up An An now. I wonder if Lawyer Wang is free to have dinner with us?"
"No problem. No matter how busy I am, I will always have time to eat with you." Wang Xue agreed and then realized, "You? Who are you and? He Yanchen?"
Lin Zhixing glanced at the man beside him and said "hmm".
The car was now heading towards Wang Xue's law firm.
"Um... alright! Tell me what happened when you have time."
Wang Xue only knew that Lin Zhixing was still alive because the bomb did not explode.
She still didn't know what exactly happened at the scene.
Lin Zhixing's attitude towards He Yanchen changed, and he believed that there must be other reasons.
The car drove all the way to the door of Wang Xue's law firm.
Wang Xue and Lin Zian were already waiting in the coffee shop downstairs.
Lin Zian was holding a small Rubik's Cube in his hand, and next to his chair was the robotic dog Xiaobai.
Xiaobai is wearing a knitted Pleasant Goat-style outfit.
Passersby couldn't help but take a look.
