[Chapter 88: Doctor Fu Confession]
"Nothing, the meat is ready."
Fu Huaijin retracted his gaze and calmly changed the subject.
There was silence in the kitchen for a moment.
Lin Yin looked at his back and pursed her red lips.
Was Fu Huaijin flirting with her just now?
She must have been overthinking it. Why would Fu Huaijin flirt with her? He was just saying it casually.
Lin Yin concentrated on picking the vegetables in her hand and stopped thinking about other things.
With help, meals can be prepared quickly.
The sky also darkened.
Lin Yin's house is in a good location. There are no buildings blocking the balcony in front, and you can vaguely see the woods in the distance.
The moon climbed up to the treetops, casting bright moonlight.
Seeing the nice view, Fu Huaijin suggested eating on the balcony. Lin Yin nodded, and the two of them moved the meal to the balcony together.
"Xiaoyin, do you want to drink?" Fu Huaijin brought some wine from his home and opened a bottle of red wine.
Lin Yin nodded, "You can drink a little."
"The alcohol content of this wine is very low. Even if you don't have a good alcohol tolerance, you won't get drunk even if you drink a bottle." Fu Huaijin was very gentlemanly and poured the wine himself.
Lin Yin picked up the goblet and took a sip. The wine tasted mellow and not astringent or sour, and had a sweet aftertaste. She couldn't help but take another sip and praised, "Doctor Fu, your wine is really delicious. It's better than any I've had before."
Fu Huaijin's blue eyes were smiling, and his gaze was gentler than the moonlight. "If you like, I'll give it to you."
Lin Yin shook her head. "That won't do. Such delicious wine must be very expensive. I can't let you spend money on it."
"Besides, I owe you a favor. I don't have anything to give you. How can I have the nerve to accept your things?"
Fu Huaijin shook his wine glass and said indifferently, "Isn't it normal for friends to give each other gifts? Unless Xiaoyin doesn't regard me as a friend."
"I didn't!" Lin Yin denied it immediately and looked at him sincerely, "Doctor Fu, I really treat you as a friend."
Fu Huaijin nodded with a smile, "Yes, I believe you."
Their eyes met briefly for a second, and the pair of light blue eyes looked at Lin Yin, gentle as water, and seemed to contain tender affection.
At this moment, Lin Yin seemed to see the young man in the white shirt many years ago.
The only change in him is that he has become more mature and stable.
Still gentle, still dazzling.
"What are you thinking about?"
Fu Huaijin spoke softly, and his gentle voice brought Lin Yin's wandering thoughts back to her mind.
"I'm thinking about the Qian family." Lin Yin lied casually.
Fu Huaijin restrained his expression and became a little more serious. "What are you going to do? The Qian family has failed in their revenge twice and they will definitely not give up. They are in the dark while you are in the light. If they want to harm you, I'm afraid you will be hard to guard against."
Lin Yin looked up at the crescent moon in the sky and said in a ethereal voice, "Yes, but what can I do? They are high and mighty capitalists, and we have no power and are as lowly as ants, no different from the fish on the chopping board that can be slaughtered at will."
She is not negative, it's just the fact that she can't change it.
If she hadn't been born with a good appearance and hadn't been able to seduce Huo Jingze to help her, I'm afraid she wouldn't even be able to save her brother.
Her brother probably wouldn't be alive today.
The truth is so cruel.
"Xiaoyin, there will always be a way when you reach the mountain." Fu Huaijin comforted.
Lin Yin drank the whole glass of wine, smiling bitterly, "Maybe."
We can only take one step at a time.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Doctor Fu, I'll toast to you."
Lin Yin raised her glass and clinked it lightly with Fu Huaijin's.
Perhaps because he was in a bad mood, Lin Yin drank a little too much tonight. He drank one glass after another and soon finished two bottles of red wine.
She was about to continue drinking when Fu Huaijin stood up and walked to her side, holding her wrist, "You've drunk a lot, don't drink anymore."
"I'm not drunk yet, I can drink." Lin Yin raised her eyes, thinking she was sober, but in fact her face had already turned red and her eyes were a little blurry.
She is very beautiful, and when she is drunk she looks even more like a mature woman.
It is tempting enough for the man who already likes her.
Fu Huaijin's eyes darkened and he took the wine glass from her hand, "Don't drink."
"I want to drink." Lin Yin picked up the wine glass again, and her voice became soft after drinking. "When you are drunk, you don't have to think so much, you don't have to think about the revenge of the Qian family, you don't have to walk on thin ice..."
The Qian family's revenge was like a huge rock hanging over her head, which could fall at any time and smash her to pieces.
She was just a girl in her early twenties. How could she not be afraid and worried when encountering such a thing?
"Xiaoyin, I have a way to help you."
Fu Huaijin was silent for half a second before speaking, looking at her steadily.
Lin Yin paused while drinking, "What?"
"Be my fiancée," he said.
Lin Yin thought she had heard it wrongly, "What did you say?"
Fu Huaijin looked determined and repeated word by word: "Xiaoyin, I want you to be my fiancée."
Bang--
Lin Yin's ears exploded. The sudden confession made her heart skip a beat. She looked at Fu Huaijin in astonishment, "Doctor Fu, you..."
"Xiaoyin, I remember who you are." Fu Huaijin lowered his head, his eyes gentle, "The little girl I rescued back then has now grown into a graceful young lady."
Lin Yin suddenly opened her eyes wide, her mouth opened wide, and she was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
After a while, she found her voice again, "You, you remember me? But..."
"I really didn't think of it when I first met you. Remember that party when you drank too much and I took you home? You let it slip, so I thought about it."
Lin Yin instantly became nervous, "What else did I say?"
Fu Huaijin looked at her with tenderness in his eyes, "You like me."
Bang--
Lin Yin's brain exploded, her face instantly turned red all the way to her neck, and she wished she could dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
Fu Huaijin held her wrist, his blue eyes full of affection, "Xiaoyin, I like you too, I want you to be my fiancée."
Lin Yin had always dreamed of this confession and fantasized about it every night.
Now she has finally waited for it, but it is so inopportune.
Lin Yin covered her face and said in a hoarse voice, "Doctor Fu, it's too late."
"I know about your relationship with Huo Jingze. I don't mind." Fu Huaijin took away her hand that was covering her face, and half-crouched down with his slender body. "I will help you. Help you get freedom."
Afraid that she would misunderstand that he would treat her like Huo Jingze, Fu Huaijin paused and continued: "Xiaoyin, you don't have to worry that I will treat you like Huo Jingze. Whether you are willing to accept me or not, you always have the right to choose."
"However, in order to make the Qian family afraid to attack you, we need to have a relationship between us. We can announce to the outside world that we are together and that you are pregnant. If you are carrying the heir of the Fu family, the Qian family will not dare to act rashly again."
"Of course, this is just to intimidate the Qian family. We can still remain friends until the day you are willing to accept me."
Fu Huaijin did not force her or put pressure on her. He just put his sincere heart in front of her, giving her enough sense of security and allowing her to have no worries.
"But……"
Obviously Fu Huaijin is the best choice, but Lin Yin thought of Huo Jingze.
His face kept appearing in her mind, and she felt an indescribable emotion in her heart.
She didn't seem to want to leave him...
Fu Huaijin noticed all the changes in her expression, and his eyes deepened.
"Xiaoyin, if you are willing, I will marry you with three matchmakers and six betrothals." He was sincere and genuine, "You will be my only wife and stand by my side."
Every word she said did not mention the fact that Huo Jingze treated Lin Yin as his lover, and every word accurately hit Lin Yin's sensitive heart.
Huo Jingze made her hide from the public, and even planned to let her continue to be the hated mistress after they got married...
Fu Huaijin said that he had gone through three matchmakers and six engagements to marry her, and that she was his only wife...
"Xiaoyin, let me help you, okay?"
Fu Huaijin raised his hand and gently placed it on her cheek, his eyes as gentle as water.
Who can resist the gentle gaze of a former lover?
Besides, Lin Yin had drunk some wine, and night was also the time when people were most vulnerable. Tenderness was like a good medicine that could soothe people's hearts...
She looked into Fu Huaijin's blue eyes, her heart pounding, her red lips slightly parted.
"Doctor Fu, I..."
"I'm sorry I came at a bad time. I hope I didn't disturb you two."
A low and cold voice suddenly floated in from the door.
