Chapter 519 The bouquet of fallen leaves is the same as last year's.

Spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

Seasons change.

A year has passed just like that.

Many things happened during this year.

For example, Yuyan has developed rapidly, achieved one major breakthrough after another, and gradually expanded its scale.

Jian Jinran's startup is also developing in a positive direction. During her most recent visit to Lin Zhihuan's parents, she obtained the Lin family's consent. Lin Zhihuan is also on the verge of a promotion due to her improved work skills.

Although Lin Zhihuan is the dean's daughter, promotions and such still require following proper procedures.

Both of us have been very busy lately, so the engagement will have to wait.

Lin Yuchen has been traveling between China and Country C multiple times to tackle a medical problem. Recently, he has developed a mutual respect with a female researcher in Country C, and they seem inclined to continue their in-depth research together.

Fu Jinyan and Sun Jiaming are already engaged, after all, it was arranged a long time ago, it's just a pity that Shi Nian couldn't attend.

Qiqian, a long-time anime fan, is still working at Fu Jinyan's Fu's Entertainment and is doing very well, with many like-minded people around him.

It is worth mentioning that because Shi Nian was seriously injured, Fu Er repeatedly mocked Fu Jinyan, saying that Fu Jinyan would definitely fall from grace after losing his powerful backer.

Fu Jinyan directly submitted the evidence that Fu Er had colluded with Han Wei to manipulate the stock market.

However, they were stopped halfway by Old Master Fu.

A family meeting was held in the middle.

“There’s no need for a family to make such a big fuss.” That day, Old Master Fu said, throwing the documents at Fu Er.

"Second son, you lost," said Old Master Fu. He then divided some things among Fu Er and said, "Don't cause any trouble in the future. These things are my share left to you by this old man. Take good care of them. They are enough for you to live a good life in your later years. If you want anything else, go and fight for it yourself."

After saying that, he looked at Fu Jinyan and asked, "Third brother, what do you think?"

Fu Jinyan had no objections.

In fact, he had known this would happen all along.

Given the Fu family's methods and the old man's attitude that he wouldn't ignore the situation, even if Fu Er is caught, he will only be fined a little money and won't actually go to jail.

The old man's decision to eliminate Fu Er directly surprised Fu Jinyan.

Although Fu Er was somewhat dissatisfied, Old Master Fu bluntly stated that if Fu Er was not happy, none of these things would be available now.

He could only slink away.

All of these industries are located overseas, which means that Fu Er is unlikely to come back and cause trouble in the future.

As Fu Er left, he glared fiercely at Fu Jinyan.

Fu Jinyan rolled his eyes at him.

On the day he left, Fu Er made a harsh statement: "Third brother, without Shi Nian as your powerful backer, I don't believe you can defeat the boss!"

Fu Jinyan smiled and waved to him, saying, "Second brother, you should go and take good care of the family's overseas assets. You don't need to worry about my affairs."

Finally, Fu Er boarded the plane in a huff.

Fu Jinyan then held Sun Jiaming's hand and went back together.

"I wonder when Niannian will wake up." The two looked at each other, both feeling sad.

Some things also happened to the Lu family this year.

First, due to Lu Yanzhi's prison term, the position of president is temporarily being held by his father, Lu Shenghui. Although the stock price plummeted for a while, it has gradually recovered after a year because of the high quality of Lu's products.

Lu Yanzhi's sentence was not long, and because of his serious physical disability, he was released on medical parole. His sentence ended recently, and he regained his freedom. Lu Shenghui also resumed his management of overseas affairs, and Lu Yanzhi was reinstated as the president of Lu's Group.

Lu Yanzhi underwent numerous surgeries, both major and minor, throughout the year, but his leg never fully recovered.

His right leg was less injured and has basically healed, but his left leg was left with a disability, especially on rainy days when the pain is unbearable.

He usually either uses a wheelchair or needs to use crutches. Although his movements are slow and his legs are not very convenient, he can still live a normal life without any problems.

The treatment had reached a point where it could not continue, and Lu Yanzhi had already resigned himself to his fate.

But whenever his legs hurt, he would miss Shi Nian especially.

Lu Xinyi has contributed a lot to the Lu family in the past year. She has not only made up for the previous impact and losses on the Lu family, but her abilities are also obvious to all. Now she can be considered a true Miss Lu, instead of just relying on her surname to act domineeringly.

She and Lin Xuan are now friends. After letting go of their past obsessions, they talked things out and are now shining brightly in their respective careers.

Lu Xinyi continued to handle the liaison matters with Country F. The two would occasionally have a meal together, or open a bottle of the wine named "Nian" and talk about their recent situations and when Shi Nian would wake up.

The situation in the Huo family is also improving.

Huo Junhui is focused on developing her career, and her latest quarterly project has received great acclaim. Huo Zhiyao, on the other hand, is busy moving between various families, and he and the second young lady of the Zhou family are like a bickering couple.

Xu Qinxin had felt guilty for a long time, but gradually, with guidance, she got over it. Recently, she often takes Zheng Shuhui out to buy delicious food and get beauty treatments.

Zheng Shuhui still hasn't been able to get over it; she keeps hoping that Shi Nian will wake up.

She was still very upset about what she had done and refused to leave Shi Nian's side. Once, she even fainted. It was only after Xu Qinxin dragged her to do this and that to distract her a little that she felt a little better, but she remained depressed.

Sisi has grown another year older.

When the adoption process was underway, Sisi was supposed to be five years old. However, due to her congenital illness and her life in the welfare home, she looked younger than usual. More than a year has passed since the adoption, and she is now six years old.

Because of good care and the surgery, he is now just like a normal child.

On Sisi's sixth birthday, many people came together to celebrate.

As Sisi closed her eyes to make a wish, she silently said in her heart, "My birthday wish is that my mother, Shi Nian, will wake up soon."

Shi Nian remained asleep.

Huo Yanmo looked at Shi Nian on the hospital bed.

Tomorrow will be their first wedding anniversary.

Recently, many leaves have fallen from the tree outside, and he suddenly remembered the bouquet of fallen leaves they had made when they took Sisi out to play.

He went and collected some fallen leaves, and is now sticking them together.

Just like before.

The entire ward was silent.

After he had tied up the fallen leaves in his hand, he looked around and made some adjustments before showing them to her.

"Does it look good?" he asked. "Isn't it exactly the same as the one we styled last year?"
