Chapter 3 Tears in the Backlight

Chapter 3 Tears in the Backlight
The time agreed with Lin Weihong was seven o'clock, and Yan Zhanqing arrived at the restaurant 10 minutes earlier.Now that Lin Weihong is no longer her client, she certainly doesn't want to have anything to do with Lin Weihong's affairs outside of official business, but she has not forgotten that she still owes Dr. Wen a favor.

"I originally made an appointment with my client to go to Zuiyuelou today, but as soon as I heard that Lawyer Yan was looking for me, I immediately pushed it away."

Regarding Lin Weihong's unclear opening remarks, Yan Zhanqing was not as indifferent as before, but showed a rare polite look.

No matter what, this feeling of asking for others is always bad.

"Mr. Lin, I asked you out tonight mainly out of consideration for you and wanted to give you some correct advice..." Yan Zhanqing took out his usual straightforward approach, but Lin Weihong interrupted her with an extremely provocative gesture.

"Hush-lawyer Yan, it's rare for you to ask me out. Let's enjoy today's dinner. Nothing else matters."

Yan Zhanqing clenched her fist, then let it go, she sat stiffly waiting for the waiter to serve.

Yan Zhanqing is shrewd and capable in his field, and it takes a long time for an opponent to show up.But leaving her field, life communication is a beginner for her. Many times, she can't even tell whether a person's friendliness towards her is from sincerity or falsehood, whether it is kindness or ridicule. Carrying the present of the city, she is like a wooden figure.So she stayed away, knowing that she didn't need to rely on anyone to live, and she also firmly believed that the great creator let her come to the world bravely alone, and would give her the courage to live alone until she left.No matter in her heart or in real life, she has built a wall. This is the way she can think of to protect herself.So in front of people like Lin Weihong, she has no ability to parry at all.

After half of the time, under Lin Weihong's "friendship", Yan Zhanqing had already drank a few glasses of red wine, and his reddish cheeks weakened Lawyer Yan's usual cold and hard manner by a few points.

"Mr. Lin." Yan Zhanqing stood up a little hastily, Lin Weihong's glass of wine that was pushed over was like poison for her to avoid, "I asked you out today mainly to give you some advice about you and your ex-wife .”

At the same time, after a distant gaze fixed on her, he never left.

"Isn't this case over?" Obviously Yan Zhanqing's sudden action made Lin Weihong a little unhappy.

"It's over, but..." Yan Zhanqing pursed her lips, very hesitant. In this case, she would not lie, and would not take out what she was good at to frighten Lin Weihong like she frightened that young man on the street before, so she I could only sit down slowly and choose my words carefully.

"Mr. Lin, I just want to give you some advice. Although you have obtained the custody of the child, Liu Si still has the right of visitation. Even the judge can't intervene in this, so I hope that Liu Si will see the child again next time." When it comes to time, Mr. Lin can abide by the established regulations."

"Now that the child is with me, I don't want anyone to see him to be up to me. How could this judge know that when Liu Si is going to see my son, how would he know if my son happened to have a cold or went on a trip?"

Yan Zhanqing remained silent, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

Wen Lin in the distance looked absent-minded in front of the waiter introducing the menu. He didn't expect Yan Zhanqing to appear here, and the man with her was so familiar.Of course, the reason for Wen Lin's displeasure was not because Yan Zhanqing was eating with a man, but that the man was obviously filling Yan Zhanqing with alcohol. This was a restaurant, not a bar, which was too rampant.And Yan Zhanqing... No matter what, he didn't seem to know how to refuse.

In the end, Wen Lin couldn't sit still when he saw the man pulling Yan Zhanqing who stood up.

"Lawyer Yan."

Never expected to meet him here.

The man in front of him, dressed in a black casual suit, with a straight figure and a handsome face, is not Dr. Wen Da.

"What a coincidence, we meet again." Wen Lin looked at Yan Zhanqing, showing his usual smile, but when he saw the faint blush on Yan Zhanqing's face, his eyes darkened.Taking a casual look at Lin Weihong, he asked again, "This gentleman is..."

"Lin Weihong, my previous client." Yan Zhanqing quickly recovered his usual tranquility, and looked at Lin Weihong again, "This is Wen Lin, my father's attending doctor."

Wen Lin's expression froze, and he remained silent for a moment.

It's just that the relationship between the doctor and the patient's family is so shallow that it means nothing.

Lin Weihong on the opposite side nodded to him, and Wen Lin also hooked the corners of his mouth, smiling on the surface.

"Lawyer Yan is really a busy person, and he is still talking about work at this point."

"No, just here to deal with some personal matters."

A personal matter...why does it sound so awkward.

Yan Zhanqing bid farewell to the two of them respectively. Originally, Lin Weihong insisted on sending Yan Zhanqing home, but Wen Lin's appearance made him feel a little inexplicable pressure, so he didn't insist anymore.On the contrary, it was Wen Lin who quickly followed after seeing Yan Zhanqing, who was walking in a hurry, almost collided with the waiter when he was leaving the restaurant.

"Xiao Yin, let's get together another day, I have something to do right now." Wen Lin said into the phone.

"Is it urgent?"

"Well, that's it for now."

The girl stood quietly at the corner. Her exquisite makeup made her look like a beauty who had just stepped out of a painting. Many passing men couldn't help turning their heads and staring.She stood indifferently, watching Wen Lin's figure chasing Yan Zhanqing out of the restaurant calmly, her eyes darkened.

Yan Zhanqing was walking, leaning against the side of the road, and after a while, she spat out the things she drank in the restaurant just now into the trash can.

Drinking on an empty stomach is definitely a taboo, let alone someone with a stomach problem like her.Stomach pain is inevitable, it's unlucky, but I haven't brought the medicine yet... But since listening to Dr. Wenda's words, the stomach really seldom gets angry anymore, so I don't know where the bottle of medicine is put.

Yan Zhanqing quickly sensed that there was someone beside him, and when he raised his head, he saw a tall figure.She was slightly taken aback: "Doctor Wen?"

Hmm...why does his face look a little ugly right now?

"Do you know that there are serious consequences for not listening to the doctor?"

Um?She doesn't understand.

"If you have gastric mucosa shedding in the stomach wall, then you will be in trouble."

By the way, he told her not to drink alcohol, um... How should I put it, this doctor is really considerate of his patients.

"Sorry, I... I don't usually drink alcohol, but this time is an exception." Yan Zhanqing lowered her face. She was not guilty, but she should apologize for disappointing someone's kindness.

There was a trace of stagnation in the deep eyes, could it be because of the alcohol, Yan Zhanqing's almost docile attitude made Wen Lin feel a little strange... Well, this feeling is a bit good, I am not ashamed to admit it of.Moreover, his performance seems to be a bit too much.

Adjusting his mood slightly, he asked curiously: "Lawyer Yan, did you meet Lin Weihong today because of Liu Si's business?"

Yan Zhanqing glanced at him and acquiesced.

In fact, there is nothing to guess. He just mentioned this matter to her at noon, and Yan Zhanqing met Lin Weihong at night, obviously to help Liu Si get something.

Although she understood that she did this to get rid of herself earlier, she still felt a little inexplicably comfortable.

"Are you okay?" With a soft tone and the slight curvature of the corners of his mouth, Wen Lin turned back to the gentle doctor he used to be.

"It's all right." Yan Zhanqing moved his hand covering his stomach away.

Wen Lin sighed softly: "Come with me."

"where to?"

"You need to eat," he said.

A very ordinary restaurant, not very eye-catching at the entrance of the alley, standing at the door and looking in, but there are many diners.

"Doctor Wen, I've already had dinner."

"But you just vomited it all up."

Yan Zhanqing had no words to refute.

"Your stomach is a bit uncomfortable now, so you need to eat something more. Believe me, it will be good to warm up your stomach."

In the end, Yan Zhanqing was pushed into the restaurant half coaxed and half deceived, and Wen Lin came back after ordering, still looking confused.Who will tell her why she is sitting here having dinner with Wen Lin?

Very light white rice porridge with a pinch of soybeans mixed in, looks delicious.But the stomach is angry, according to Yan Zhanqing's past experience, don't disturb it anymore, but what is the difference between eating now and provoking it?
"Lawyer Yan, I'm here to let you eat, not to see me for dinner." Wen Lin was troubled.

Yan Zhanqing remained motionless, a little distressed, but didn't know how to refuse, just like the wine that Lin Weihong pushed over in the restaurant just now, although he repelled it in his heart, he still drank it without refusing.At this time, Wen Lin suddenly put down his chopsticks, picked up the porridge on the table, pulled a chair and sat down beside Yan Zhanqing, a masculine hormonal aura quickly surrounded her, so close that she could barely move The body will touch him.This feeling was so strange that Yan Zhanqing was a little overwhelmed.

"Lawyer Yan, or do you want me to feed you here bit by bit?"

How, how could there be such a person?Yan Zhanqing's expression became extremely unnatural.She sat motionless with a stiff posture. The other party was obviously smiling, but Yan Zhanqing seemed to see a wolf's tail wagging behind him.

The doctor seemed overly enthusiastic.

In the end, she was the first to lose. She took the bowl from Wen Lin's hand, carefully avoiding his fingers.

Wen Lin looked at the porridge on the table and smiled cunningly, but the eyes that fell on her face from time to time were very gentle.

After eating a bowl of porridge, Yan Zhanqing felt that the pain had dissipated a lot. It seemed that even the alcohol had been diluted, and he felt much more comfortable.What's worse, Lawyer Yan felt that he was not full yet.

Just thinking about how to ask for another bowl of porridge, Wen Lin turned around and said to the waiter, "Please give me another bowl of porridge."

When it was time to pay the bill, Yan Zhanqing actively took out his wallet, but was stopped by Wen Lin: "Lawyer Yan, you still owe me a meal. I don't want to be dismissed so easily by you."

Yan Zhanqing was taken aback for a moment, and stared fixedly into his clear eyes. This was the first time he had looked at him so closely.In an instant, a strange feeling floated up, distant and clear.

"We... have we met somewhere before?"

Yan Zhanqing didn't know why he suddenly felt this way, it was distant but clear, but he couldn't find a clue.

It wasn't until she saw Wen Lin's stagnant expression that she realized how abrupt her words were.

"I'm sorry, I just suddenly felt that you were a little kind..." Yan Zhanqing shrugged her words embarrassingly, "Please don't take what I just said to heart." After thinking for a while, she who was not good at words could only speak weakly.

After a while, Wen Lin just smiled, noncommittal.

When it was time to say goodbye, Yan Zhanqing said goodbye, still politely.Seeing her gradually moving away from her back, he had a lonely expression, complex eyes, and a hint of melancholy in his heart.

When Wen Lin was downstairs, he saw the lights in his apartment were on.

"Doctor Wen, are you back? You really know how to pick your time, our hot pot is just right." As soon as he entered the door, he saw Yang Hao's deadpan smile, and he was still holding a bowl of hot food in his hand.

"Brother Wen Lin." It was Xiao Yin's soft voice.

"Why are you here?" Wen Lin was a little unexpected.

"You sent me pigeons in the restaurant, so I had no choice but to ask Yang Hao to kill you and come to your base camp." If there seems to be no frustration, it doesn't sound real, but the anger is pretending to be decent.It's no wonder that after two years of absence, anyone would feel bad if they were let go when they met for the first time.

"Sorry, something unexpected happened."

"What's so big that you can leave our flowery Miss Xiao alone in the dining room?" Yang Hao asked.

"Eat your hot pot." Wen Lin pushed his head away.

Xiao Yin casually helped to add: "It seems to be chasing a woman out of the restaurant, it seems that she is really in a hurry."

"Female?" Yang Hao blinked.

Wen Lin felt that something was wrong, so he changed his shoes and went to the room, but was still picked up by Yang Hao.

"Wen Lin, don't tell me that woman is Yan Zhanqing!"

Upon hearing Yang Hao's words, Xiao Yin's expression froze.Wen Lin broke free from Yang Hao's shackles with an elbow. The strength was obviously not strong, but the person being beaten was pretending to scream.

"Wen Lin, you murdered your own husband!"

Wen Lin ignored him, and greeted Xiao Yin: "I'm going to change clothes, you guys eat first."

"En." Xiao Yin raised her lips, and after Wen Lin's back disappeared, the arc of her mouth was quickly pulled down again.

Wen Lin left, singing a one-man show was boring, and Yang Hao was excited to eat around the hot pot again. Xiao Yin added a fish ball to Yang Hao's bowl with a smile, and then asked casually: "Brother Yang Hao, what is Yan Zhanqing you just said?" who?"

"A mad woman." Yang Hao concluded without hesitation, Xiao Yin opened her big innocent eyes and asked in puzzlement: "Why do you say that?"

Soon, Yang Hao began to shake his head and talk about Yan Zhanqing's actions during this period like a storyteller, and it was inevitable to add embellishments.Xiao Yin listened carefully, and Ling Qi's big eyes seemed to be thinking about something.

"So Brother Wen Lin knows her very well?"

"Well...you can't say that, because Ah Lin is her father's attending doctor now, so the two of them will have more contact, but I don't know what Wen Lin thinks, she seems to be very concerned about Yan Zhanqing."

Yang Hao started to chatter again, Xiao Yin obviously looked absent-minded, and it wasn't until Wen Lin came out of the room that she returned to her previous gentle and obedient appearance.

The three of them chatted around the dining table, and Xiao Yin used the word "boring" to describe her two years of studying abroad, as if she had made an appointment, and no one touched that sensitive topic.

At the end, Yang Hao answered the phone, and seeing the boy scratching his head and smirking at the phone, Wen Lin felt that there must be something tricky about it.

After Yang Hao hung up the phone, Wen Lin asked casually, "Woman?"

"Why do you care so much, just take care of yourself." Yang Hao's expression was obviously unnatural.Originally, he wanted to talk to this guy, but Yang Hao left the apartment in a hurry.

In a blink of an eye, only Wen Lin and Xiao Yin were left in the huge apartment.

"Brother Yang Hao is also in love." Xiao Yinyu said earnestly.

"Auntie has been forcing him to get married. If he really likes a girl this time, forget about Auntie's concern."

"It's reasonable to say that others are justified, as if I'm not in a hurry." Xiao Yin lowered her head and stirred the vegetables in the bowl with chopsticks.

"Let's talk." Wen Lin smiled, but Xiao Yin could hear the indifference in his tone.It's always like this, gently rejecting people thousands of miles away, not even a gap to take advantage of, and not leaking.

The two of them started chatting nonchalantly again, talking about the embarrassing things they encountered in school, Xiao Yin laughed out loud regardless of her image, Wen Lin shook her head, as if looking at a naughty little sister.

"Phew - I'm so full. Those foreign foods are really incomparable to our domestic cuisine. A hot pot meal is better than a French meal." Xiao Yin stretched her waist contentedly.

"It's getting late, I'll take you home." Wen Lin glanced at the clock on the wall.

"Well, then I'll trouble you."

Speechless all the way.

The car stopped in another high-end residential area, Xiao Yin thanked her, but did not get out of the car after unfastening her seat belt.

"What's wrong? Did you forget something?" Wen Lin asked.

Xiao Yin turned her head to look at him, her eyes shining brightly in the dimly lit carriage.Wen Lin gradually suppressed the expression on his face, and looked at him silently.

After a long time, she asked in a low voice, "Is your answer still the same as it was two years ago?"

He sighed.

"Xiao Yin, you have always been my sister."

She didn't hide, and let him rub her carefully groomed hair with his hands. She was very sad and mad with anger, but she couldn't refuse the warmth of his palm.Could it be that she can only get his affection?Can the childhood sweethearts be brothers and sisters in the end?
Not reconciled.

"Brother Wen Lin, who is the woman you chased out in the restaurant?" After asking, Xiao Yin obviously felt Wen Lin's movements pause.

"A friend."

"Brother Yang Hao said that you care about her very much."

"is it?"

Yeah?What kind of answer is this, admit or deny?

"I'm going up, and you should be careful on the way." Even if your heart hurts, you still have to pretend that nothing happened. I don't know when, the mood of staying by his side has changed from satisfaction to heartache, but this will not make you feel sad. She backed down a bit. Since she could make those passionate girls' love letters disappear before they were delivered to Wen Lin when she was a student, what can a cold-blooded lawyer do?

"Hello, Lawyer Yan, my name is Xiao Yin, and this is your client, Mr. Xie."

"Please sit down." Yan Zhanqing gestured towards the chair with his usual indifference.

Two days later, Xiao Yin approached Yan Zhanqing and brought Yan Zhanqing a case as an intermediary.Xie Jincheng is a little old man over fifty years old. A director of his father's company was tricked at a reception. The woman who tricked him proposed a huge amount of compensation. Xie Jincheng was very annoyed. , and want to sue the other party for defamation.

After hearing about this from her mother, Xiao Yin thought of a way to meet this lawyer who caught Wen Lin's heart.

Now the whole office is almost full of Xie Jincheng's angry voice, Xiao Yin calmed down while observing Yan Zhanqing calmly, I have to say that she is really not simple, the questions she asked were all penetrating, causing Xie Jincheng to You have to think about it when you answer.

"I roughly understand the specific situation. What I want to know now is, what is the bottom line if the other party agrees to reconcile Mr. Xie?" Yan Zhanqing asked.

At this time, Xie Jincheng had calmed down, he thought for a while, and said, "If the other party is willing to apologize, I can pay this amount to help her pay some legal fees." He spread his five fingers.

Yan Zhanqing frowned slightly: "Fifty thousand?"

"five hundred."

Yan Zhanqing smiled, the meaning was unclear, and she said, "Don't worry, we will not only ask her to apologize, but also ask her to pay you the lawyer's fees."

Xiao Yin was a little surprised, if it was someone else, it would definitely be exaggerated, but Yan Zhanqing said it very calmly, without any sense of exaggeration.

It's just... Brother Wen Lin would like such a cold and strong woman?
Hearing this, the little old man was naturally very happy, and his wrinkled face immediately stretched out: "Lawyer Yan, my niece has always praised me for how capable you are, and she never praises others easily, so I believe You won't let me down."

At this time, Yan Zhanqing finally took a more serious look at Xiao Yin, Xiao Yin gave her a shallow smile, but Yan Zhanqing didn't make any obvious response.Seeing her like this, Xiao Yin's mood was inexplicably good, staring at Yan Zhanqing's indifferent face, she smiled very sincerely.

Such a person is definitely not the same as Wen Lin.

At this time, Xiao Yin's beautiful eyes froze suddenly, as if remembering something.

"Then I will entrust Lawyer Yan with full authority to handle this matter. If you have anything to do, you can contact me at any time." In a daze, Xie Jincheng had already got up from his chair and bid farewell.Concentrating the confusion in her eyes, Xiao Yin got up and said hello.

At this time, the assistant came in and led the two of them outside, but Xiao Yin felt a little doubt in her heart, and couldn't help turning her head to look at Yan Zhanqing again.

"What's wrong?" Xie Jincheng asked her.

"It's nothing." Xiao Yin looked away and smiled, "I just suddenly felt that Lawyer Yan looked familiar."

Especially that apathetic indifference, which seemed familiar.

"What? Aren't you acquaintances?"

"No, I have just returned to China, how could I know her, it must be an illusion."

"Look at you, you have a wide network of contacts, and you can help uncle find such a powerful lawyer just after returning to China. President Xiao is so lucky, to have such a capable daughter, who is not like my disappointing little bastard..." The little old man sighed He said, shaking his head, "You said that you still have to do this kind of thing at your age, it's really... oh! What a shame."

"Uncle Xie, you can't say that. Although we have money, we can calm things down, but we can't ignore this bad atmosphere. If we don't teach them a lesson this time, how many people will suffer in the future."

One sentence made Xie Jincheng happy: "Yes, I thought so too, besides, if I didn't do it, I didn't do it. The more I cover it up, the more people will think I have a ghost in my heart."

"That's right, I think this lawyer Yan is so capable, you just wait at home for those villains to kowtow to you and apologize."

"Hehe, good, good!"

Xiao Yin obediently took the smiling Xie Jincheng out of the company's door. Although she had denied the thoughts in her mind just now, the feeling was still lingering in her heart.

It seems that... I have seen her somewhere.

Absolutely did not expect things to develop like this, a small lawsuit actually made the all-powerful lawyer Yan almost stumble.

Because she received a call 2 minutes before the trial, her father was in a coma and was being rescued in the hospital.

Even though he was well-prepared, Yan Zhanqing's mind was blanked repeatedly by his father in the hospital. Fortunately, the other party's lawyer was a novice, and he failed to grasp the key points of the counterattack many times.In the end, the lawsuit was not lost, but it was not won either, so it will be retried at another date.

As soon as he left the court, Xie Jincheng was obviously very dissatisfied with the result, and he was so angry that he wanted to find Yan Zhanqing to make a theory.

"Lawyer Yan, please explain clearly, what's the matter? Do you want me to lose the lawsuit?"

Hearing this, Yan Zhanqing's eyes turned cold.

"Mr. Xie, there is no word 'lose' in my dictionary." After speaking, Yan Zhanqing quickly disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving only the assistant there to deal with the aftermath.

When she arrived at the hospital, the lights in the emergency room were still on. She glanced at the closed door, and she sat down on the row of chairs silently. The expression on her face was not as flustered as imagined, like delicate ceramics Almost flat and flawless.

It was just a hard finger that plucked a piece of skin off the briefcase.

After a while, the lights went out.

Yan Zhanqing was finally moved by the sound of the door opening. She got up and walked straight over. The person who came out was Wen Lin.Seeing Yan Zhanqing, Wen Lin was stunned for a moment, not because of her appearance, but because of the paleness on her calm face.

"How is my dad?"

"Consciousness has been restored, but it is still a little weak, don't worry too much."

Hearing this, Yan Zhanqing breathed a sigh of relief.Soon, his father was pushed out of the emergency room by the nurse, and Yan Zhanqing couldn't help being dazed when he saw his father.Father himself is thin, with dark yellow skin, and has not undergone any major surgery, but years of persistent illnesses have made him age rapidly.Even so, the impression is that my father can still walk and take care of himself.But today, when her father was lying motionless on the hospital bed and breathing weakly, she truly felt the fragility of his life for the first time.

Will father...

As soon as that thought popped up, Yan Zhanqing felt a convulsion in his stomach, and the pain was so overwhelming that he could hardly straighten his waist.

"Lawyer Yan." Wen Lin was startled, and supported her reflexively, but Yan Zhanqing acted as if he was repelling something.

A thin layer of sweat quickly appeared on her forehead, but she slowly stood up straight while leaning on the wall as if she was not affected at all, her eyes were cold and firm.

In the past, no matter how severe the pain was, she survived alone, and now she doesn't need anyone's help on the spur of the moment, no need.

Returning to her usual calmness, she passed Wen Lin without looking sideways, and followed the hospital bed carrying her frail father.

Looking at Yan Zhanqing's back, Wen Lin suddenly felt a little sad, and frowned, clearly showing distressed expression.

Because he was too weak, his father fell asleep again after he opened his eyes and looked at himself, but his expression seemed much more peaceful.Yan Zhanqing retreated from the ward, found Wen Lin after adjusting his mood.

"What happened to my dad? Why did he suddenly pass out?"

Looking at the medical record, Wen Lin's expression was a little serious, and he said, "It's hard to say now, the test results will come out in two days."

Yan Zhanqing noticed the seriousness in Wen Lin's words, but he still didn't take the initiative to ask, or he didn't have the courage.

She couldn't imagine that if she didn't even have her father, what would be left of her?

Wen Lin wanted to comfort her, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't know what to say. He was a doctor, and he knew the old man's body better than her. It seemed that even the outcome... had been foreseen.

In the afternoon, the assistant called. The retrial of Xie Jincheng's case was scheduled for the day after tomorrow. Yan Zhanqing asked Huang Yalin to bring all relevant materials to the hospital so that she could work and take care of her father.But like this, the old man had something to say, he didn't want his daughter to work so hard, but Yan Zhanqing always smiled gently: "Dad, I'm not tired."

Outside the ward, someone's heart was secretly rippling because of this smile.

"...In summary, due to insufficient evidence and unreasonable request, the plaintiff's claim is dismissed and the court is withdrawn."

The moment the gavel fell, Xie Jincheng held Yan Zhanqing's hand affectionately, feeling a little excited.

"Wonderful, Lawyer Yan, it's amazing!"

On the other hand, Yan Zhanqing was in a flat mood, and there was faint fatigue in his eyes.Declining Xie Jincheng's lunch invitation, she returned to the hospital.

When I got back to the ward, the nurse told me that my father fell asleep after eating a little.Yan Zhanqing sat in front of the ward and held his father's hand, silent for a long time.

After a long wait, the test results finally came out.

As soon as he saw Wen Lin, Yan Zhanqing keenly noticed that there was a slight strangeness in the other's expression.She also came prepared, so she spoke bluntly and said, "Is it serious?"

Wen Lin stared closely into her eyes for a few seconds, and said, "Old Yan has a hamartoma in the back of his head."

Breathing stagnantly, Yan Zhanqing looked at Wen Lin steadfastly, as if stunned.

"Hamartoma is generally considered a benign tumor, but strictly speaking, it is not a real tumor. It is composed of a wrong combination of blood vessels, smooth muscle and fat tissue, also known as angiomyolipoma..."

"Doctor Wen," Yan Zhanqing interrupted him, "Can you just tell me what to do?"

Wen Lin noticed that Yan Zhanqing's hands were shaking. Although her expression looked calm, the faint fear in her eyes could not be concealed.

Wen Lin spoke softly, trying to make the atmosphere less tense: "Because the tumor tissue is rich in blood vessels, it is easy to bleed, so the treatment of this disease is still dominated by surgery."

Yan Zhanqing's eyes lit up instantly: "So you mean, as long as the tumor is removed, my father will be fine?"

Wen Lin was silent. The expression on Yan Zhanqing's face as if he was grasping at a straw made people feel very unbearable. What's more cruel was that he wanted to be the camel that crushed that straw.

"It's usually true, but..." Wen Lin paused, "The hamartoma grows in the back of the brain, the difficulty and risk of surgery are higher than in other parts, and Yan Lao's blood pressure has always been high and difficult to lower, so proceed rashly." Surgery is very dangerous."

After hearing this, the lines on Yan Zhanqing's face gradually narrowed, and finally she returned to her expressionless face. No one knew what she was thinking at this moment.

"Then what should we do? Dr. Wen."

The way Yan Zhanqing suddenly calmed down made Wen Lin a little uneasy. She looked like she was discussing a case with her client.

Wen Lin adjusted his thoughts and tried his best to treat Yan Zhanqing as an ordinary family member of the patient, so as not to let her interfere with him.

"Now it can only be treated conservatively and controlled with drugs first."

"How long can it be controlled?"

"It depends on how old Yan's body accepts the medicine."

Yan Zhanqing fell into silence. After a long time, she left the office without saying a word.Wen Lin was worried and wanted to go out, but was stopped by the nurse.

The crimson sunlight slanted down through the window, her back was still straight, but her steps were heavy as if stepping on the apex of her heart.Turning a corner, her figure disappeared into the darkness.

Before leaving get off work, Wen Lin went to the ward again, only the nurses were there, and Yan Zhanqing was nowhere to be seen. Finally, Wen Lin found her on the lawn of the hospital. At this time, it was already dark, the temperature had turned cold, and there were not many people walking around outside. , she sat alone on the bench, raised her head, she didn't know what she was looking at, motionless like a statue.

Wen Lin watched her from a long distance, his eyes covered with haze.He saw her suddenly reach out to cover her eyes, her body trembling violently.

His eyes darkened, and there was a faint distress on his face.

For several days in a row, Yan Zhanqing turned down his work and stayed with his father all day, never mentioning his father's illness.Regarding his own body, Yan Guozheng was very clear. Although he didn't know what the disease was, it must be nothing short of a minor ailment.After a few days of buffer period, Yan Guozheng pulled Yan Zhanqing to the side of the bed and looked at it carefully.

"Girl, do you remember what Dad told you, when you were young in the army, how did you treat those dishonest recruits?"

After a pause, Yan Zhanqing lowered his eyes and nodded, "Let them run naked in the snow in the winter."

"Hehe, I can't let my daughter do this." She patted the back of Yan Zhanqing's hand with a shriveled palm, both in her demeanor and her movements, showing a strong love.

"Tell me, what's wrong with Dad, or how long can Dad live?"

"Dad, it's not that serious."

"Then tell me, what is the disease?" The old man still smiled easily.

After a long silence, Yan Zhanqing said, "The hamartoma is on the back of the head."

Yan Guozheng was not too shocked, and smiled as he listened to Yan Zhanqing's detailed explanation.For a while, the ward fell into silence, Yan Zhanqing dodged her eyes, not wanting her father to see her uneasiness.Yan Guozheng held her cold hand tightly as if giving her strength.

"Qingqing, what do you think of Dr. Wen?"

Absolutely never thought that his father would ask such a question, Yan Zhanqing was unable to react in time, and what was even more tragic was that this dull look was mistaken by his father for shyness.

"You are very discerning, and Dad also thinks this young man is good."

"Dad, I think too much." Toefl said, and the atmosphere suddenly became more relaxed.

"Dad found out that Dr. Wen cared about you a lot. He came several times at night when you were keeping vigil for me."

Yan Zhanqing shook his head helplessly: "Obviously Dad, he's here to inspect you."

"No, no, if he comes to inspect, I will definitely come in with the medical record, but he just stands outside the door and looks inside. If he doesn't see you, he will be very anxious. If you are well, he will be at ease. walk away."

Yan Zhanqing was almost amused by his father's serious appearance: "When did your eyesight become so good? I don't know, let alone through a glass, you can still see people in such a dark situation." An expression of anxiety or relief?"

Make it up.

No matter what his father said afterwards, Yan Zhanqing didn't take it to heart. Before going to bed, Yan Guozheng was still talking about it to Yan Zhanqing.

"Dad, it's time for you to go to bed. Your priority now is to cure the disease, and the rest is not important."

Yan Guozheng was holding Yan Zhanqing's hand that was tucking the quilt firmly in the palm of his hand, his cloudy eyes were shining brightly.

"To Dad, this is the most important thing now. Qingqing, your temper is like mine. To put it nicely, you are independent, but to put it badly, you are actually withdrawn. I used to think that you have such a good personality that you are not like other children. Going wild with bad kids like that. But now Dad regrets it a bit, I feel sorry for you... You should be more like your mother, maybe you won't be as lonely as you are now."

"Dad, don't mention this, okay?"

"...Okay, okay, don't mention it." The elderly body showed deep sadness, Yan Zhanqing looked at his father, and the sternness on his face was gradually replaced by gloom.

"Qingqing, you must know that there are two things that Dad is most proud of. One is that Dad once led a regiment of good soldiers. The other is you, Dad's good daughter. So even if you go now, there is no regret. Really, that is, I can't hand you over to another person properly, I want to leave you alone...My daughter, you alone..."

The old man muttered to himself, and finally fell asleep exhausted.

When she got out of the ward, the wind was blowing on her face and it was bone-chillingly cold. When she touched it with her hand, she found that her face was wet.

A few days after leaving the company, there were already so many things that could be tied up. My father's words lingered in my mind repeatedly. Thinking of his sad appearance, my heart tightened, and I felt a heavy sense of guilt.
-
Qingqing, what do you think of Dr. Wen? -
You are very discerning, and Dad also thinks this young man is good.

How could you think of him?Yan Zhanqing laughed at himself.

how can that be possible?The kind of people who seem to warm up the air with just a smile.How can people who are completely different from themselves be together.

In fact, no matter what kind of person they are, they would never choose to be with such a self.

Suddenly there was a small commotion outside, which pulled back Yan Zhanqing's thoughts. She picked up the cup and walked to the tea room. Who would have thought that as soon as she walked in, the assistants held their breath and calmed down as if they had seen a ghost, and then pulled out to herself. A smile against my will.

It's always like this, even colleagues avoid it like a plague god, let alone others.This kind of situation happens often, and Yan Zhanqing has long been used to it, but now it seems that there is an extra weight in his heart.

Seeing Yan Zhanqing leave, Huang Yalin heaved a sigh of relief.

"You two keep your voice down, if you let the boss know that we are talking about blind dates at work, you will definitely be scolded to death." Xiaomi raised her eyebrows, Huang Yalin stuck out her tongue embarrassingly, and Ellie looked disapproving , Said: "What are you afraid of? If the blind date is successful, I will be my doctor's wife at home. Why should I suffer in this kind of place?"

"Yeah... That's true." Huang Yalin felt that this argument was reasonable, and became more courageous.

"That's right, but there are four people on the other side, and we're still short of one. I can't find a single candidate. You two hurry up and use your brains. It's up to you whether the blind date at night can go smoothly." Xiaomi Quickly entrusted with important tasks.

"That... I have a classmate who looks pretty good."

"Is it from our legal profession?" Xiaomi asked, and Huang Yalin shook her head, "That can't be done, they agreed to meet us because of the halo on our heads, otherwise those men in the medical field have high vision, what's the use Gotta go on a blind date."

"Tch, is a lawyer great? Not to mention just a paralegal, okay?" Ellie folded her arms and rolled her eyes.

"Of course a paralegal is nothing special, but when people hear that they are working with such an excellent lawyer as 'Yan Luo Wang', they will naturally think you are very special." Xiaomi said it seriously, and Huang Yalin nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, okay, think about who else is suitable, and don't mess up the blind date at night." Xiaomi waved his hand.

Suddenly, a voice came in from the door.

"Did you just talk about a blind date?"

Hearing the sound, the three of them looked over in unison, and when they saw Yan Zhanqing's cold face, the faces of the three of them turned completely pale.

After a while, Huang Yalin, who was Yan Zhanqing's assistant, stammered, "That, that... Lawyer Yan, we... We didn't mean to be lazy, it's just..."

"If you are short of people, let me join in."

"what?!"

The three of them uttered this shocked monosyllable again in unison, their jaws almost dropped to the ground.In the end, the brave Xiaomi plucked up the courage to test: "Lawyer Yan, I heard you right, do you want to go on a blind date with us?"

"Um, can you?"

"Of course!" the nervous Huang Yalin cheered, "We are just short of one person. Lawyer Yan is here just in time. Please hurry up and send me your electronic file information so that I can send it to the other party. By the way, for photos It’s better to live it up, um... I’m not saying that most of Lawyer Yan’s photos look old-fashioned, Lawyer Yan is so beautiful..."

"I, am I hallucinating..."

Huang Yalin followed behind Yan Zhanqing and talked non-stop, leaving Xiaomi and Ellie behind to maintain a petrified state.

After confirming that Yan Zhanqing was not joking, the attitude of the three of them towards Yan Zhanqing changed a lot in an instant.

"Lawyer Yan, are you dressing like this for a blind date or for a lawsuit? It's too serious, and it will scare people away." After work, Huang Yalin unceremoniously gave Yan Zhanqing's clothes a failing grade.

Yan Zhanqing looked at himself reflected in the glass, with a long black coat, black thick high heels, and a meticulous hair bun, he looked a little serious, but Yan Zhanqing's clothes were all matched in this way.

"There are still two hours before the appointed time." Ellie looked at the time and said slowly.

"It should be enough to buy some clothes and put on some makeup." Xiaomi looked up and down Yan Zhanqing thoughtfully.Then, the three of them made eye contact, and then escorted Yan Zhanqing, who was still in confusion, away.

Yan Zhanqing doesn't come to the department store very often, but when he comes, he must be alone. It's the first time he walks in the mall surrounded by several people. This feeling...well, it's a bit good.

"Okay, this is the room, let's go."

Before they had time to savor this rare warmth, the three little girls pulled themselves into a newly decorated women's clothing store.

Looking at the beautiful clothes in the room, Yan Zhanqing stood upright without moving, not because he was not tempted, but because the feeling of being tempted was too strange to dare to act rashly.

It is said that women are pleasing to themselves, but Yan Zhanqing has no "self-pleasing", so he naturally has a far-sighted attitude towards the things these girls like.

After careful selection, the three of them each picked a set for Yan Zhanqing and tried it on. In the end, the green cardigan paired with tight light-colored denim made several people, including the shop staff, all praise.

Casual yet sexy, it is really good to make people look bright.

After confirming it, Xiaomi suddenly came over with a smile all over his face and said, "Lawyer Yan, pay the bill."

It was Xu's first time wearing this kind of clothes, and Yan Zhanqing even became slow to hold the wallet, let alone under such weird eyes.

When swiping the card, Xiaomi's eyes suddenly turned straight. Ellie realized that something was wrong with her, so she quickly pulled her aside and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Xiaomi looked at Ellie stiffly, her expression suddenly became saddened, and she said, "Lawyer Yan used a financial IC card just now."

"So what?"

"Do you know how much is the balance in the card?"

"How much?" I was a little concerned.

"This number, and there are more than one or two bank cards in her wallet." Xiaomi made a "7" gesture.

All of a sudden, Ellie's eyes were also straightened.

Strong woman!
"Now only hair and makeup are left, next stop, Go!" Huang Yalin ordered, and Yan Zhanqing was taken away again.

The makeup was much simpler. The makeup artist applied light makeup to Yan Zhanqing according to the requirements of the three cobblers, which was elegant and not childish.In terms of hairstyle, a professional hairstylist has full authority to handle it. The long hair that has been bound all year round is now shawled, the ends of the hair are slightly curled, and the bangs are slightly trimmed... From the beginning to the end, Yan Zhanqing had no right to speak and was at her disposal.

When the dress was ready, Yan Zhanqing stood unnaturally in front of the people, the three cobblers stopped talking, their faces seemed to be a little bit ugly, and the staring eyes made Lawyer Yan feel guilty for the first time in history.

"What's the matter?" she asked, her expression that should have been indifferent now looked more innocent.

At this time, the hair stylist finally sighed softly: "It's so beautiful."

Not only is it beautiful, but boys are envious and girls are jealous!Not fair, not fair!The three girls collectively envied and hated in their hearts.

It only took an hour to walk around, and Yan Zhanqing felt that it was still too late to visit his father in the hospital.

"I left in advance, and I will be there on time at eight o'clock."

"Well, if you have something to do, go ahead and see you at eight." Huang Yalin smiled obediently, looking in a good mood.

Yan Zhanqing nodded, turned around to leave, and finally turned around and said, "Thank you."

Everyone was shocked.

It wasn't until Yan Zhanqing walked away that Huang Yalin put away her surprised expression and said emotionally: "Actually, Lawyer Yan is quite easy to get along with."

"Yeah." Ellie nodded.

"Suddenly I feel that Lawyer Yan is the strongest opponent." Xiaomi was even more emotional.

"What's the matter, do you regret it?" Ellie stimulated.

"Yeah, I regret it." Although she said so on her mouth, the expression on Xiaomi's face was 100% indifferent. If you look closely, you can still see the hidden smile in her eyes.

Obviously, Yan Zhanqing's new image also surprised Dr. Wen Da, but she didn't realize it.In the corridor, when meeting someone by chance, Yan Zhanqing greeted him with his usual attitude, then ignored his stagnant gaze and left.

"Lawyer Yan." Even Wen Lin didn't know why he stopped her at this time, but the unbalanced heartbeat when he looked at her could not deceive anyone.

She tilted her head slightly, frowned slightly, and silently expressed her doubts with her most normal expression, but she didn't know that the person who was staring at her became even more abnormal because of these subtle movements.

"You are a little different today." Wen Lin pretended to be calm, and there was a faint trace of strange fluorescence in his eyes.

As if she finally came to her senses, she lowered her head, with a look of embarrassment on her face, and said, "Is it weird?"

"..."

It was her action of gently pulling the hem of the clothes that gradually stabilized Wen Lin's chaotic heartbeat, but when facing her, his mood became softer and softer.

"No, it looks good." The sincere and affirmative praise made Yan Zhanqing raise his head, and in her sight, he raised the corner of his mouth, the same smile as before, but there seemed to be something different.

It's because the color of the eyes became darker, the doting gradually came to the fore, it was the deliberate camouflage that became lighter, and the gap between the ligatures and the words was inlaid with rich tenderness.

Such Wen Lin made Yan Zhanqing even more unnatural. In the end, she thanked her and moved away from Wen Lin's sight.

So far, Wen Lin's good mood was beyond words throughout the night. Although he usually put a smile on his face, the sharp-eyed nurse still saw his abnormality.

"Doctor Wen, you're so happy to be on duty. I found a treasure." In the duty room, the nurses who were familiar with Wen Lin liked to joke with him, and Xiao He was one of them.

Doctor Wen touched his face, is it so obvious?
"Where's Dr. Qi? Why didn't you see him?" Wen Lin changed the subject.

"Doctor Wen doesn't know yet. Dr. Qi and several male doctors from the Department of Surgery have organized a blind date, haha."

In fact, Wen Lin just asked casually. Since the topic has changed, it is none of Dr. Qi's business to get married.

"Xiaohong, have you turned it on?" Xiao He urged another nurse in front of the computer.

"It's coming soon," she said.

It was Dr. Qi's computer. I don't know whether to say he has a good temper or has ulterior motives. The office computer is like a public computer, and anyone can use it.Wen Lin is different, even if he is a very good colleague, he still has the principles he should have. He doesn't want his hard work in research to be deleted by some daredevil one day.

"Open it, let's take a look." After Xiaohong said this, Xiao He immediately moved over, and after a while, both of them burst into laughter.

"It turns out that everyone in the legal profession looks like this. Dr. Wen, why don't you come and see, Dr. Qi and the others are on a blind date."

"No." Wen Lin shook his head, not daring to compliment.

"Hey - this person..." At this moment, Xiao He uttered a voice of confusion, "Doctor Wen, isn't this person your patient's family?"

"what?"

"It's her." Xiao He pulled him over, "That lawyer who looks cold."

"..."

Soon, when he saw Yan Zhanqing's photo on the screen, the coffee in Wen Lin's mouth almost spewed out.
