Inside the office.
Ren Xiya watched Li Huan hesitating and didn’t bother to explain anything.
Because back then, she did those things for money.
So she hoped others would understand her.
Seeing Li Huan silent, Ren Xiya placed the night snacks on the table.
"Let’s leave it at that. Don’t get involved in what cos next."
After saying this, she turned to leave.
Li Huan put down the dical record and grabbed her.
"What’s wrong? Won’t you even let finish speaking?"
"What do you want to say?" Ren Xiya asked.
"I just think you should have found Third Young Master sooner; he will definitely help you."
"The ticket is too expensive, I can’t afford it," Ren Xiya replied truthfully.
"That... is indeed true."
Li Huan nodded earnestly.
Ren Xiya was suddenly puzzled by his thoughts.
"So you held back just to ask this?"
"What else? Everyone has their difficulties. As a doctor, I’ve seen plenty of them. Staying alive matters most. And even if I asked, I couldn’t go back in ti to help you."
Li Huan looked at Ren Xiya seriously.
After a few seconds of eye contact, Ren Xiya lowered her head and opened the bag she had brought.
"Let’s eat the night snack first."
"Okay." Li Huan reached out to help her, and their hands touched.
A bit cold, as if she was very nervous.
Li Huan looked at her: "Missy, are you really touched? How about considering ?"
Ren Xiya was stunned for a mont, still lowered her head.
"Consider what?"
"Dating." Li Huan patted his chest.
Ren Xiya held back a laugh: "I’ll consider it. How about you close the door, so people won’t see and think you’re not working seriously."
Seeing there was a chance, Li Huan happily went to close the door, taking a glance outside.
He closed it when he confird no one was there.
Gu Yingxi, who was hiding aside, worried she’d be seen, turned and went to her office.
Elsewhere.
Li Huan turned around to see the food on the table was all his favorites.
Ren Xiya was tough outside but soft inside.
Halfway through eating, Ren Xiya cut to the chase.
"Li Huan, I ca to you for another matter."
"What is it?" Li Huan kept his head down, eating.
"The person who leaked online is Gu Yingxi."
"Cough cough... Who? Doctor Gu?" Li Huan choked, "She doesn’t even know you, why target you?"
Ren Xiya tapped the table: "Are you really dumb or pretending? She’s doing it for you."
"What? But I’ve already made it clear to her." Li Huan said.
"She probably thought you rejected her because of , so she thinks removing will do." Ren Xiya explained.
Li Huan took a sip of water to go with his food.
"Why is she in such a hurry after just divorcing? And we haven’t seen each other for years, there’s no relationship."
Only classmates’ connection.
Ren Xiya rested her chin in her hand, finally understanding why Li Huan could be single for so long.
He was simply too lazy to think in that direction.
No matter how much enthusiasm cos from the other side, facing a blockhead will gradually lose interest.
Ren Xiya spoke: "Haven’t you noticed Nina really likes you? At her age, she already has her own thoughts; there’s no way she’d casually call a man dad."
"So what?"
Li Huan shrugged, even a bit happy about it.
His good-nature indeed attracts people.
In high school, although Gong Chen was most popular, many girls liked him too.
Ultimately, they all beca friends.
Ren Xiya was amused by him.
She gently poked his nose with her finger.
"Even though you haven’t seen Doctor Gu for a long ti, when faced with a man who extends a helping hand in tis of distress, she should have a high approval of your character. Plus, the child likes you, so even if you two have no feelings now, it won’t stop her from thinking you’d make a good stepdad."
Li Huan moved his nose, raised his hand, and held Ren Xiya’s hand.
"I don’t want to be soone else’s dad, how about being our child’s dad?"
"You smooth talker! Let go!"
Ren Xiya tried to pull her hand back, but this man, though polite in appearance, was quite strong.
Li Huan followed her force and pulled her right over.
"You haven’t answered yet."
"I won’t have children." Ren Xiya replied directly.
"Okay, you didn’t directly reject being with this ti." Li Huan smiled.
"You..."
Ren Xiya gritted her teeth, this man was quite cunning.
Playing dumb all day long.
She brought the topic back: "Don’t you think there’s sothing strange about this matter?"
Li Huan thought for a mont, his smile froze montarily.
"How does Gu Yingxi know so much about you?"
"Fu Shu."
The na floated in the room.
Li Huan was montarily stunned, never associating the two people together.
But he always felt he had heard Fu Shu’s na before.
He thought for a bit: "How do they know each other?"
"You wouldn’t believe it, Fu Shu was the third party in Gu Yingxi’s marriage."
"..."
Li Huan found it hard to believe.
Suddenly, he widened his eyes, realizing sothing, and quickly pulled out his phone, finding a friend’s ssage.
He usually doesn’t pay much attention to others’ updates.
But his friend is quite gossipy and often shares interesting things with him via screenshots.
He rembered before Gu Yingxi’s divorce, his friend had sent him a WeChat Monts screenshot from her.
Opening the image, he indeed saw the familiar na.
Fu Shu.
"I wondered why it looked familiar, turns out I’d seen Fu Shu’s na before."
Ren Xiya leaned in for a glance.
"Gu Yingxi’s Monts? Why does the text sound incoherent, with a lot of swearing, not like her."
"My friend said she seed to have been drunk and accidentally vented on Monts, then deleted it once she sobered up."
Li Huan spoke while zooming in on the image.
Ren Xiya pressed down his hand: "Wait a minute, this photo is of a ring?"
"Probably their wedding ring; her photos always had it, but later on it disappeared."
"So Lin Zhiyi was right, the ring was taken by Fu Shu, leading to Gu Yingxi’s heartbreak and divorce. It seems Fu Shu then had a falling out and breakup with her ex-husband and returned to China one after another. Then she t an idiot like you."
Ren Xiya glanced at him and made a move to get up.
The next second, Li Huan pulled her behind the screen.
"Missy, doesn’t that sound a bit bitter to you?"
"I think you ate too much night snack, I’ve given you my ssage, so I’m leaving now."
Li Huan blocked her way.
"I’ve finished work, let take you back."
"Alright." Ren Xiya nodded, frowning, "Then why did you pull in here, to watch you change clothes?"
"Want to watch?"
Li Huan pinched the collar of his white coat, pretending to take it off.
Ren Xiya flashed a seductive smile, stepped back two paces, and sat on the small bed.
"Sure, why not, take it off, I thought you..."
She tilted her head and pursed her lips slightly.
Li Huan was stunned by her.
He realized Ren Xiya had seen through his playful intentions.
Since that’s the case, why pretend to be a gentleman.
Li Huan lifted his hand, cupped her face, and kissed her deeply.
Until the heavy breathing seeped out from behind the screen.
He slightly released Ren Xiya: "Stop thinking about the past, your life has just begun."
Ren Xiya caught her breath: "Are you sure you want to say this to now? Can you handle it, Doctor Li?"
Her gaze lowered.
