“Nuan Nuan, later at noon I’ll be going to Fenglin Garden with your father. It’s near the place you live, so let’s have lunch together…” Liang Mulan didn’t wait for Lin Nuan to reject her, quickly adding, “Mom misses you.”

She had already left without greeting them at the hospital that day, so when Liang Mulan was speaking so softly to her, Lin Nuan had no choice but to accept.

She guessed that the couple asked to meet her outside so they could avoid the awkwardness between her and Lin Ran.

“Alright, I’ll go find you and Papa later, what time—”

“One p.m.! Come a bit earlier!”

Hanging up, Lin Nuan went to the bathroom to clean her hands full of cream.

Lin Nuan opened the bathroom door at the end of the corridor and heard someone making a call in one of the cubicles with a happy tone.

“Why can’t I come to Haicheng to work? Let’s eat dinner together tonight?”

The voice sounded a little familiar.

In front of the sink, Lin Nuan’s gaze remained fixed on the hand wash and she pressed it down a few times. When she turned the tap on, she heard the door of the occupied cubicle opening…

She raised her gaze and looked at the mirror.

The new president of the broadcasting building, Chu Qian, walked out of the cubicle. Seeing someone by the sink, Chu Qian looked over too, meeting Lin Nuan’s gaze through the mirror.

Seeing the president, Lin Nuan couldn’t avoid greeting her so she nodded at Chu Qian with a polite smile. Chu Qian also nodded her head.

Wearing a neat white form-fitting dress with a blazer, Chu Qian was even slimmer than her appearance showed on-screen. Her work I.D. card was clipped and placed in the left pocket of the blazer and she still had her center-parted hair tied in a low ponytail. When she was not speaking on-screen as the president, the way Chu Qian smiled was extremely womanly.

She pressed the phone between her cheek and shoulder as she stood next to Lin Nuan to wash her hands. The water ran over her slender fingers and nails painted in a nude color, the light and subtle fragrance of her perfume entering Lin Nuan’s nose.

“If you’re already booked for tonight, then let’s meet tomorrow. You shouldn’t still be booked tomorrow, right? Or… do you have a girlfriend?”

Chu Qian spoke in a joking tone. Not knowing what answer she got, Lin Nuan watched from the corner of her eye as Chu Qian’s smile obviously froze.

Afterward, Chu Qian smirked and carelessly shook off the water on her hands, looking into the mirror as she tidied up her hair and said, “I see, recommend her to me another day so I can see what kind of lady snatched the heart of my savior.”

Lin Nuan had no intentions to linger and eavesdrop on other people’s gossip, so once she finished washing her hands, she drew out two pieces of tissue paper to wipe her hands and walked out, only throwing away the used tissues after she went through the door.

…

Lin Nuan went home and took a nap. When she woke up, it was already twelve-twenty in the afternoon.

Lin Nuan hurriedly got up and rushed to the bathroom to wash up.

Song Yao held a cup in her hand as she leaned against the doorframe of the bathroom and watched Lin Nuan who was brushing her teeth.

Lin Nuan pushed aside the toothpaste foam in her mouth and looked at her through the mirror, asking, “What’s wrong?”

“Just now when you were sleeping, Xiaonian told me everything about you and that Fu Huai’an…” Song Yao switched the cup to another hand and adjusted her posture as she continued, “I thought it over again and again, and I feel that you shouldn’t listen to Xiaonian. The emotional hurt you’ll feel when you get married and divorce is different from what you’ll feel if you date and break up. Women always tend to be the ones getting hurt and disadvantaged during these affairs between men and women. You don’t understand Fu Huai’an’s character and if you’re reckless, you’ll be muddle-headed and neglect the fact that men often use the bait of dating to sleep with you.”

Lin Nuan raised the hand holding onto the toothbrush to push her messy unbrushed hair behind her ear as she spit out some toothpaste foam, saying, “I know…”

“You’re different from me, Lin Nuan. You’re extremely stubborn in love to the point that once you acknowledge one person and determine they’re the one for you, you will give up your life for them. You’re not suitable for the world of playboys and their games.”
