Chapter 71 Cheng Qian’s husband is Li Zhinan?
Qiao Silin was holding a cocktail and was about to take a sip when he heard about the illness.
"Why is Madam Li also concerned about this disease?" Qiao Silin was a little surprised.
The ladies and socialites present were already accustomed to this world of fame and fortune, and their exchanges were mainly business.
Mrs. Li specifically found him to inquire about his illness, which was indeed a bit unusual.
Li Yanning immediately frowned and whispered, "Don't be offended, Dr. Qiao. My aunt's youngest son was diagnosed with this disease when he was eight years old. He has been searching for a cure and hasn't found a good doctor to treat him. I'm really worried."
Qiao Silin's deep eyes flickered. Li Zhinan's younger brother has cystic fibrosis?
That's a coincidence. Cheng Qian seemed to have said before that her husband's relatives also seemed to have this disease.
This genetic disease is generally more common in Caucasians and is rare in Asians.
Unexpectedly, there were two cases right next to him.
Qiao Silin smiled and said, "To be honest, Madam Li, my partner and I have been conducting further research on this condition recently."
"Really?" Jiang Meng's eyes lit up and he looked at him hopefully. "I wonder how far you've come in your research? Can you eradicate this disease?"
"This is a genetic disease. So far, even with proper treatment, the life expectancy is only forty years. It will be difficult to cure it completely." Qiao Silin did not try to comfort the other party just because he was anxious, but told him the truth.
"Forty years old?" Jiang Meng felt her eyes go dark for a moment, and Li Yanning immediately supported her.
"Aunt, at least there is hope." Li Yanning comforted softly.
Qiao Silin said, "Mrs. Li, President Li has just become the second largest shareholder of our research institute. As soon as we have any results, we will definitely help your son as soon as possible."
"Which research institute are you from?" Jiang Meng was curious.
Qiao Silin immediately handed over his business card.
Jiang Meng took it with his hand, his brows relaxed: "Isn't this in the same research institute as my daughter-in-law?"
Qiao Silin was surprised: "Mrs. Li's daughter-in-law is also at the Seed Research Institute?"
Li Yanning beside her smiled and said, "Yes, my sister-in-law is Cheng Qian, you should have seen her."
"What?" Qiao Silin's tall body trembled violently, and he subconsciously took a step back: "You are not kidding, are you?"
Li Yanning looked at him seriously and said, "How can you joke about something like this? However, my sister-in-law is a low-key person. As her colleagues, it's normal that you don't know."
Qiao Silin felt a little suffocated. He raised his hand and said to Jiang Meng, "Sorry, I have to excuse myself for a moment."
Li Yanning looked at Qiao Silin strangely; his expression seemed to change in an instant.
"Aunt, is he okay?" Li Yanning was a little worried.
Jiang Meng was also a little puzzled, as Dr. Qiao seemed to have something urgent to do suddenly.
"Aunt, can you give me this business card?" Li Yanning asked with a smile.
Jiang Meng put Qiao Silin's business card in her hand: "Are you interested in him?"
Li Yanning lowered her head, looking shy: "Auntie, I just admire her, but I dare not try to get close to her."
"How can you be considered marrying above your station? You are well-educated, well-educated, good-looking, and you are the daughter of our Li family." Jiang Meng turned her head and glanced at Qiao Silin who was not far away. He was tall and handsome, and he was worthy of her little niece.
Li Yanning was flattered by the praise, and a hint of anticipation flashed across her eyes.
Qiao Silin walked through the crowd and came to the sparsely populated back garden.
A gust of cold wind blew over him, and he finally calmed down from the conversation.
Cheng Qian’s husband is Li Zhinan?
Qiao Silin suddenly reached out and slapped himself in the face. If this was true, then why did he keep telling Cheng Qian that Li Zhinan and Cheng Yan were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship?
Isn't it like every knife is stabbing people in the heart?
"Damn it..." That beautiful and resolute little face appeared in Qiao Silin's mind.
It is hard to imagine how much pain is hidden in her heart behind her light words.
However, Cheng Qian also did something wrong.
Since Li Zhinan is her husband, it is really unkind of her to have been hiding it from him.
Qiao Silin took a few deep breaths. He had been with Cheng Qian for some time and had some understanding of her.
If it's something she doesn't want to mention, then there must be a reason.
Forget it, as long as she doesn't bring it up, he'll just pretend it never happened.
Oh, I almost forgot they are getting divorced.
May 8th is Cheng Qian’s birthday.
Ever since her parents passed away, Cheng Qian has forgotten this day.
After she married into the Li family, she never mentioned her birthday and she really never had a birthday. However, Jiang Meng and Li Zhinan would give her a gift on this day.
Ji Nan called her at the end of the day: "Xiao Qian, today is your birthday, did you forget?"
Cheng Qian was stunned and smiled: "Uncle Ji still remembers it so clearly?"
"Of course. I still remember singing birthday songs for you with my senior brothers and sisters."
"Let's have dinner together after get off work tonight. I asked Yichen to arrange a simple dinner." Ji Nan said this and then asked, "Do you want to invite your husband to come over?"
Cheng Qian was so moved that her eyes were red. Uncle Ji was like a reborn parent to her, remembering even such a small thing so clearly.
"Let's not call him, he's very busy." Cheng Qian shook her head, but she wanted to take her son Xiaoye over for dinner.
So, before leaving get off work, Cheng Qian called Ye Zhu and asked her to bring Xiao Ye over.
Ye Zhu and Ji Nan were acquaintances, and since it was Cheng Qian's birthday, Ye Zhu attached great importance to it. She had originally planned to celebrate her birthday simply at home, but when she heard that Ji Nan was going to treat everyone, Ye Zhu happily brought Xiao Ye over.
Ji Nan treated everyone to a meal at a restaurant next to the research institute.
Since Cheng Qian is not a person who likes to be in a crowd, Ji Nan did not invite anyone else, and only the father and son invited Cheng Qian to dinner.
Qiao Silin, Cheng Qian's partner, was also invited.
Qiao Silin put his hands on his hips, with a helpless expression: "Today is your birthday, and you're telling me now?"
"Please have a piece of cake." Cheng Qian said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll give you a birthday present another day." Qiao Silin spread his hands, helpless.
"No need for gifts. I just hope Dr. Qiao can give me some advice on my work." Cheng Qian said sincerely.
When Qiao Silin heard her mention work, he put his hands in his pockets and deliberately probed: "Cheng Qian, you are so anxious to solve this problem, is it because that person is very important to you?"
Cheng Qian was stunned, not knowing why he asked that.
Qiao Silin touched the back of his head guiltily: "I'm just asking casually."
"Yes!" Cheng Qian nodded: "It's very important."
The important thing Cheng Qian was referring to was whether she could take her son away.
Qiao Silin's handsome face froze, and an inexplicable emotion arose in his heart.
She said it was very important because Li Zhinan was her husband and she loved him equally.
