I Became the Best Forensic Doctor After My Betrayal-Chapter 268 - Variant

268 Variant

Shen Yin was genuinely happy for her. She picked up her chopsticks and put vegetables into the steaming pot as she said with a smile, “Fang Cheng is a very good man. He’s also your colleague. The two of you are very suited for each other.”

Li Zi thought so too. When she thought of how considerate he was after their relationship was formalized, she could not help but tell her best friend about their usual interactions. “Do you know? Ever since we formalized our relationship, he squeezes toothpaste onto my toothbrush in the morning. He also helps me to tie my shoelaces and makes sure I eat three balanced meals a day. Have you notice that my figure has improved a lot recently?”

Actually, Shen Yin really could not tell. However, judging from Li Zi’s current sunny appearance, she knew that Fang Cheng was taking good care of her, so she did not want to spoil Li Zi’s mood. She nodded and echoed, “You’ve really lost a little weight. But you’re living together so quickly?”

Li Zi did not want to hide it from her and nodded. Afraid that her good friend would worry about her, she hurriedly added, “Don’t worry, I’ll be careful not to get pregnant.”

Shen Yin sighed. She wanted to say that they were progressing a little too quickly, but on second thought, she had been pregnant out of wedlock and her child was already six years old. What right did she have to criticize others? She shut her mouth and quietly ate the cooked food.

In fact, she wanted to ask about the first love that Li Zi had been unable to forget for many years. However, she restrained herself when she saw how peaceful and happy Li Zi looked now.

Although she restrained herself, to her surprise, Li Zi brought up the subject herself.

As they were eating hotpot, Li Zi suddenly bent over until she was almost level with the table. She looked around guiltily before lowering her voice. “Have you heard that Xie Ming is getting married?”

Shen Yin shook her head.

She had basically stopped contacting all her past acquaintances. How could she know such shocking news?

She could not help but sigh at the thought of that playboy actually getting married. “Looks like we’re really old. Even he think it’s time to settle down.”

Li Zi straightened her back in amusement. She picked up a large piece of beef, placed it in a bowl, and said as she dipped it in the sauce, “He’s not thinking of settling down. His family forced him to do it. I heard that his family introduced the bride to him. I only saw a photo. She’s quite beautiful and is quite compatible with him.”

“Hey.” Shen Yin glared at her and could not help but ask worriedly, “Don’t tell me you haven’t forgotten him?”

In the past, Shen Yin had not thought highly of Xie Ming. He was too scheming. Every girlfriend wanted to marry him, but none of them succeeded.

Moreover, she had always suspected that althought Xie Ming clearly knew Li Zi’s true feelings, he had never made his stance clear. He deliberately kept her hanging so that she would be even more fascinated by him, and also to satisfy his vanity.

Li Zi coughed and said, “I… I actually wanted to see him at first, but when I heard that he was getting married, I decided not to disturb him. Now that I’m with Fang Cheng, I naturally won’t think about him anymore.”

Shen Yin knew that Xie Ming had occupied almost all of Li Zi’s youth. It was not so easy to forget him. If she had really forgotten him, she would not have brought him up today.

Sighing, Shen Yin gently advised, “Let bygones be bygones. The most important thing is to cherish the present. Fang Cheng is a good person. You can’t let him down for such a rotten egg.”

Li Zi was amused by her description. Her gloomy mood dissipated a little. She nodded repeatedly and said, “Yes, I know. I will cherish Fang Cheng and start a new chapter.”

In Room 1402 of the Long Cheng clubhouse, Lian Jing sat in the middle of the sofa with a dark expression. He looked coldly at Shang Sheng, who was flanked by women. He raised his eyebrows and smiled. “You asked me here to have this kind of fun?”

Shang Sheng shivered for some reason and quickly retracted his hand that was wrapped around the girl’s waist. He smiled ingratiatingly and said, “Brother, of course not. Wait a little longer. Sui Ran will arrive with his people later. Then we’ll play pool and sing.”

Lian Jing snorted coldly. He sat there gloomily and began to drink.

If Shen Yin had stayed home today, he would have refused to come out with Shang Sheng and the others.

The atmosphere in the private room was tense when someone suddenly pushed open the door from outside. A smiling Sui Ran entered with his female companion. “Aiyo, President Lian, long time no see. What have you been busy with recently? I’ve missed you so much.”

“Get lost.” Lian Jing glared at him. He knew that Sui Ran was mocking him for not hanging out with them recently.

There were also a few men from the same circle behind Sui Ran. All of them had beautiful women in their arms. Lian Jing was an anomaly by comparison. He sat alone on the sofa, drinking and looking lonely.

Sui Ran gave Shang Sheng a look and leaned towards Lian Jing with a mischievous smile. “I’ve made a new friend recently. Will you let her come in and have fun with us?”
