Yan Su knew that his words were always the most moving. For some time now, he was only good at saying those moving words. She remembered back when they were in school together, he would scale walls for her, fight for her. Now he was refusing her even a small favor.

She told Luosang what Shi Xiang told her. “I’m sorry. I assured you so confidently, but I am of no help at all.”

“Don’t worry about it. He does make some sense.” Luosang could tell that Yan Su was disappointed. “I will do my best and shine through with my own abilities. Don’t worry.”

“I’m sorry.” Yan Su was full of disappointment.

“Don’t think too much about it. We are good friends.” Luosang patted her head.

“Mr. Nian would support my career on your account, but my boyfriend…” Yan Su couldn’t even bear to finish her sentence.

“Don’t think of it that way. Shi Xiang is only 23 years old, Junting is already 30. Many people his age have barely made any mark on society. His achievements are remarkable for his age. I believe if he really loves you, by the time he reaches 30 like Junting, he will be incredibly accomplished.” Luosang smiled.

Yan Su paused to think. Luosang made some sense, and she was less bothered. “Oh right, I thought Leng Shuangwei has regained consciousness. How come Mr. Nian hasn’t come around since you came back from An City?”

Luosang quickly blushed. “I talked to him about it. Since you are staying here, too, I don’t think it’s appropriate for him to come to our place so often. I will go over to his place if I’m going to spend the night with him.”

Yan Su immediately understood where she was coming from, and she hid a chuckle. “Are you embarrassed about what happened that night? I told you I didn’t hear anything.”

“…” Luosang rolled her eyes. Who would believe her? “He has been quite busy lately, as well. Leng Shuangwei is still in the hospital. He visits her every other day.”

“You’re ok with that? She is his ex-girlfriend, after all,” Yan Su asked curiously. “You should watch out. Don’t let her take advantage of the situation.”

“I can’t help it. She saved his grandma, after all. He can’t leave her at the hospital without showing any care or concern. He visits her along with Xiao Si though, and he updates me all the time.” Luosang shrugged. “She’s going to be discharged in a week or so, then he won’t be visiting her anymore.”

“I’m just saying you should still watch out,” Yan Su reminded her.

A week later, Leng Shuangwei was finally about to be discharged. She was admitted to a military hospital. Nian Junting went along with Xiao Si. On their way there, Xiao Si complained, “Why do you have to drag me along every time you go? You make me do so many other things, too. I don’t have time for this.”

“If you go with me, Leng Shuangwei’s mom will not read too much into my visits. Luo will be more at ease, too. Even though she says she doesn’t mind, she’s extremely petty,” Nian Junting explained. “You wouldn’t understand. Your EQ is too low. You’ll find out when you get into a relationship.”

Xiao Si was shocked. “Ay, I see marked improvement. You’ve become more sensitive.”

When they arrived at the hospital, only Jiang Qifei was in the ward. “Where is Shuangwei, Aunty?” Xiao Si asked.

“She went for an ultrasound scan. She will be discharged if the findings are clear.” Jiang Qifei looked at Nian Junting. “Junting, there are some things that I never told you. I’m really sorry about what happened with your dad in the past. I did you both wrong, but Shuangwei is innocent. With her state now, are you not planning on taking any responsibility? Are you planning to patronize us by just visiting every day? She did trade her right to be a mother for your grandma’s life.”
