Amusement parks are extremely attractive to children. Nan Chen hadn't been there since he got sick last time. He looked at He Lingchuan expectantly: "Really?"
Seeing that this trick worked, He Lingchuan pinched his little face: "Of course it's true. I'll call Daddy, and we'll go together, okay?"
Upon hearing that He Lingchuan was also going, Nan Chen's expression turned somewhat strange, but he did not refuse.
Zhou Mingyan's face darkened as he belatedly realized that Nan Chen was slowly accepting He Lingchuan.
He looked at Nan Chen, who had opened his arms and let him hug him, and felt down.
Zhou Mingyan quickly composed himself, carried him out of the ward, and smiled: He Lingchuan, this time I will definitely make sure you and Nan Chen are completely separated.
At the same time, He Lingchuan jogged to the door of Nan Chen's ward, only to find it empty.
After confirming that Nan Chen had been picked up, he hesitated for a moment before going to Gu Chengze's laboratory.
He plans to wrap up the project. If he can sell it for a good price, that would be great. If he can't sell it, he'll wait to participate in the AI competition next week. Once he gains recognition through the competition, he'll never have to worry about his product being unwanted again.
Pushing open the laboratory door, He Lingchuan immediately saw Cao Xue working overtime.
He was somewhat surprised; he hadn't expected Cao Xue to be there.
"How could you..."
"Have you recovered from your injury?"
The two spoke in unison, and He Lingchuan scratched his head somewhat awkwardly: "It's nothing serious."
After what happened last time, their meeting was somewhat awkward.
He Lingchuan hesitated for a moment, then decided to give the lab to Cao Xue: "You go ahead and do your work, I'll come back tomorrow."
"Brother Lingchuan."
Cao Xue suddenly called out to He Lingchuan. Looking in the direction he had left, she whispered, "Do you despise me?"
"How could that be? Don't overthink it."
He Lingchuan looked helpless. He sighed and didn't know what to say to comfort Cao Xue.
He had only one thought in his mind: he had to switch labs again.
Just as he had this idea, he heard Cao Xue slowly say, "Brother Lingchuan, you don't need to feel embarrassed. I've thought it through. From now on, I won't pursue you anymore."
Hearing Cao Xue's words, He Lingchuan looked surprised: "Are you serious?"
"Yes, I plan to study hard and improve my skills."
Cao Xue looked at him somewhat shyly: "My skills aren't quite there yet, I might need your help. Will you help me?"
He Lingchuan stared at Cao Xue's expression, making sure she wasn't lying to him, and immediately agreed: "Don't worry, no matter what problems you encounter, as long as you come to me, I will definitely help you."
Hearing his words, Cao Xue laughed and said, "Brother Lingchuan, I'm relieved to hear you say that."
She made way for He Lingchuan, gesturing for him to come over: "Are you also doing an experiment? Shall we do it together?"
He Lingchuan glanced at the time. He originally wanted to go back, but after Egg Tart left, he felt a little guilty, so he had no choice but to stand next to Cao Xue and do the experiment.
Fortunately, Cao Xue kept her word and never contacted him again.
He Lingchuan glanced at Cao Xue occasionally, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
Such a wonderful girl, it's a pity he didn't have the good fortune to be with her.
It was already 1 a.m. when the experiment was finished. He Lingchuan glanced at the time and decided to take Cao Xue home first.
The two chatted and laughed as they walked to the laboratory door, only to find Shen Yanxi standing outside.
What are you doing here?
He Lingchuan was somewhat surprised.
Shen Yanxi snorted coldly, turned around and left without saying a word.
He Lingchuan knew she had misunderstood, but he had no intention of chasing after her.
He looked at Cao Xue: "I'll take you home."
"Don't you want to go see Sister Xixi?"
Cao Xue looked at the person beside her with some surprise. She subconsciously wanted to refuse He Lingchuan: "Actually, I can go back by myself."
He Lingchuan didn't give Cao Xue a chance to refuse her, and opened the passenger door: "Shen Yanxi should have come with Zhou Mingyan, so don't worry about her."
I guess she stopped what Zhou Mingyan said and came to catch them cheating.
He Lingchuan chuckled self-deprecatingly: "Let her think whatever she wants."
He's explained it a hundred times, but Shen Yanxi still doesn't believe him. Now that he's seen it, even if he jumps into the Yellow River, Shen Yanxi still won't believe him.
He Lingchuan glanced at the people around him and said self-deprecatingly, "In her eyes, I'm just a womanizing scumbag, not even as good as Zhou Mingyan."
Hearing his words, Cao Xue felt inexplicably disappointed.
The car grew quieter and quieter. Cao Xue remained silent until He Lingchuan stopped the car, at which point she slowly spoke: "Brother Lingchuan, do you still like Sister Xixi?"
She originally thought that as long as she stayed by He Lingchuan's side, she would definitely have a chance.
Now she was a little unsure: did He Lingchuan really not like Shen Yanxi?
Wasn't he just jealous?
“We are already divorced. Since I’ve let go, it means I really don’t love her anymore.”
He Lingchuan turned to look at Cao Xue: "But it's impossible for me to be with you."
Cao Xue clasped her hands together, a little nervous. She had mentally prepared herself for a long time before asking, "Would you be with someone else?"
"There are no such plans at the moment."
He Lingchuan knew why Cao Xue asked these questions. He could have lied to Cao Xue, but he didn't want to.
He looked at the person sitting in the passenger seat and slowly said, "Let's go back."
Cao Xue moved her lips, but ultimately didn't utter a single word.
She looked back every few steps, reluctant to leave He Lingchuan's car.
He Lingchuan waited until Cao Xue entered before leaving.
He compressed the twenty-minute drive into just over ten minutes. When they arrived at the villa, He Lingchuan was locked out by the servants inside.
"Mr. He, Miss has instructed that you are not allowed to come in. Why don't you call her?"
He Lingchuan knew that Shen Yanxi was deliberately making things difficult for him. He closed the car door and had no intention of getting out: "No need, I'll just wait at the door."
Nan Chen hasn't fully forgiven him yet, so in order to get Nan Chen to accept him as soon as possible, he takes him to school every day without fail.
It's too late to go back to the rented room now, so in order not to be late, He Lingchuan plans to sleep in the car tonight.
The servants at the door, seeing his state, nervously stamped their feet: "Mr. He, why don't you call Miss? We're just servants, we really don't dare let you in."
"No need, I'll just wait at the door, you don't need to worry about me."
He Lingchuan was also stubborn. If Shen Yanxi wouldn't let him in, he wouldn't go in. Anyway, he had plenty of time to waste here.
The only ones who were worried were the servants at the door. If Shen Yanxi knew that He Lingchuan had slept outside the door all night, she would definitely cause trouble for them.
They hesitated for a moment, but decided to go back and tell Shen Yanxi.
“Miss, why don’t we let Mr. He in? It’s too cold outside, and his injuries haven’t healed yet. It would be terrible if he got sick.”
“He wants to sleep outside; it’s not like I made him.”
Shen Yanxi shrugged indifferently: "Even if he dies, it's none of my business."
