Life in siheyuan era

Shen Lanyin wouldn't ask him what his mission was, but would softly say, "Is there anything I can do?"

"Take care of yourself, don't make me worry about you."

He thought this was sweet, but Shen Lanyin softly asked, "If I take care of myself, you won't worry about me?"

He misspoke again and immediately corrected himself, "I'm thinking of you every moment. When you're not by my side, I'm always worried about you, afraid that you'll be hurt in the slightest."

These words were sweet, like a magic potion, but Shen Lanyin drank it without hesitation, glared at him, and playfully said, "You're so glib."

He seemed to have said the wrong thing again, but from Shen Lanyin's happy expression, he knew he hadn't. Zhou Zhiyuan laughed, and the two walked downstairs, then saw Hao Zhiwen. Zhou Zhiyuan greeted him enthusiastically, "Doctor Hao, off work."

He politely said to Yang Dan, "Nurse Yang, off work."

He said these meaningless words and continued downstairs with Shen Lanyin, hearing her whisper, "Hao Zhiwen has come to find me again these past two days, saying he wanted to take me out to dinner, but I refused."

Zhou Zhiyuan completely agreed, replying softly, "Your attitude must be firm, don't give him any wishful thinking."

"Don't worry," Shen Lanyin's attitude was very firm.

Then she whispered, "I told Grandpa Xie, I'll take Uncle Zhou and Aunt Lin to see him on Sunday."

Hearing this news, Zhou Zhiyuan was overjoyed and blurted out, "Truly a good daughter-in-law."

After saying this, he immediately realized he had said the wrong thing again, and quickly glanced at her. Seeing the slight upturn of her lips, he realized he might not have said the wrong thing after all.

At this moment, he felt that the "Mastering the Art of Conversation" skill was almost complete. Facts proved that if you want to improve your speaking skills, you should get a girlfriend.

He understood another principle, then saw Han Xue, Zhang Yong, and Guo Yanhong walking towards them. Seeing them, Han Xue immediately said, "We're here to see Comrade Shen Lanbo."

She came to visit the patient, carrying a cloth bag, probably filled with "cigarettes, alcohol, candy, and tea."

Zhang Yong said, "Yanhong prepared some nutritional supplements for Lanbo, putting in a lot of effort."

This was a standard good husband of the future, not mentioning himself, only Guo Yanhong.

He understood clearly that with his relationship with Zhou Zhiyuan, there was no need to show himself off, only Guo Yanhong.

Shen Lanyin naturally understood, thanked Han Xue, reached out and took Guo Yanhong's hand, and said cheerfully, "Yanhong-meimei, you're so thoughtful."

This "Yanhong-meimei" made Guo Yanhong happy, and Zhang Yong was also overjoyed, definitely not letting Shen Lanyin's words fall to the ground, immediately adding, "Zhiyuan and I are like brothers, you two should also be like sisters."

Zhang Yong said, glancing at Zhou Zhiyuan, the meaning very clear, "The rest is up to you."

But Zhou Zhiyuan didn't take the bait, politely saying, "Comrade Han Xue, Comrade Zhang Yong, Comrade Guo Yanhong, Lanyin and I will accompany you upstairs."

There were guards on the fourth floor. Without him and Shen Lanyin, Han Xue and the others couldn't go to the fifth floor. Zhou Zhiyuan's loud voice was for the people coming and going to hear. Shen Lanbo's hospitalization couldn't be kept secret, as long as it was determined that he was hospitalized due to injury or illness.

Han Xue's visit to Shen Lanbo was good evidence. Hao Zhiwen could prove it, he glanced this way, while Yang Dan walked forward with her head down.

Zhou Zhiyuan noticed something strange. After Shen Lanyin confirmed their relationship, Yang Dan's relationship with Shen Lanyin had become distant.

He found this strange, but Shen Lanyin didn't care about it, and was pondering Han Xue's intentions.

She didn't know that Han Xue was also responsible for investigating that building, overlapping with Zhou Zhiyuan's duties, and desperately wanted to know some information from Zhou Zhiyuan, so she naturally thought that Han Xue's arrival was sudden.

Han Xue had only met Shen Lanbo once, letting him use her home phone. Learning that Shen Lanbo's injury had relapsed, she came to visit, the reason very far-fetched.

"She wants to get close to Zhiyuan," Shen Lanyin's judgment was correct, but she thought along a different path.

Han Xue's visit to Shen Lanbo had only one purpose, seeing Shen Lanbo lying on the bed, looking listless, immediately confirming her thoughts, "This is a setup."

She saw the loophole, Shen Lanbo's face was pale, his breathing was rapid, his whole body seemed to have no strength, but the moment he opened his eyes, a gleam of light shot out, exposing the truth.

After saying these words, Han Xue walked forward. Shen Lanyin gently nudged Zhou Zhiyuan's arm. Zhou Zhiyuan gently shook his head, grabbing her arm and following the three in front.

They came downstairs to the courtyard, Zhang Yong greeted the two, drove Guo Yanhong out of the hospital gate, while Han Xue didn't say a word, got on her bicycle and left.

Watching her back, Shen Lanyin coldly said, "What does that mean?"

Zhou Zhiyuan whispered, "Expressing an attitude of dissatisfaction."

He wasn't a rigid person, the rules of "don't tell your parents, don't tell your wife and children" also had to be applied to different people.

He didn't tell his parents and Zhou Zhining because he was afraid they would worry, but appropriately telling Shen Lanyin was to avoid misunderstandings.

Han Xue's investigative duties overlapped with his, so there was no need to hide it from Shen Lanyin, she was a party involved.

But he absolutely couldn't tell her about the illusory figure. Since he had resolved Shen Lanyin's misunderstanding of Han Xue, there was no need to add fuel to the fire. The overlap of their duties made Han Xue want to extract some information from his mouth, which was a normal psychological state.

He had spoken, and thought Shen Lanyin would understand.

But Shen Lanyin softly asked, "The reason your investigative duties overlap is to transfer you out to complete another task, and my brother's hospitalization is part of this task, right?"

She asked this question, and as soon as she finished speaking, she immediately said, "You don't need to answer, I won't let you make a mistake, but there's a question you must answer. If you weren't dating me, would you pursue Han Xue?"

This question made Zhou Zhiyuan stop in shock. Just as he was about to speak, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck, and he said affectionately, "Having seen the great ocean, other waters are hard to appreciate; having known the Wushan mountains, other clouds are not worth seeing. My eyes are only for you, I would chase you to the ends of the earth."

As soon as these words came out, seeing a smile appear on Shen Lanyin's face, he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, but then heard Shen Lanyin continue to ask, "No glib talk, just say yes or no?"

Zhou Zhiyuan immediately cried out softly, "How is that possible? My dreams are only of you."

Saying these words, his body trembled, and all the hairs on his body suddenly stood on end.

But the smile on Shen Lanyin's face grew even brighter, and she said softly, "Lower your voice." After saying this, she strode away.

Zhou Zhiyuan quickly caught up, and as soon as he approached her, Shen Lanyin reached out and gently pulled his hand, then immediately let go.

Zhou Zhiyuan gently grimaced, secretly breathing a sigh of relief again.

The two walked out of the hospital gate mixed in with the crowd, turned a corner and walked towards another street. There were also many pedestrians here, and the two could only say things that others could hear.

"Can you take my master with us?"

"That jeep can seat five people, but..."

Shen Lanyin wouldn't continue, there were people walking by.

Zhou Zhiyuan knew what Shen Lanyin was worried about, public vehicles couldn't be used for private purposes, so he whispered, "I have a way."

Shen Lanyin replied with an "Mm", "Then take Master with us."

Hearing her call him Master made Zhou Zhiyuan happy, but then he heard Shen Lanyin suddenly ask, "If there wasn't me, would you pursue Han Xue?"

She was persistent enough, she had to figure this out.

Zhou Zhiyuan suddenly noticed that there were few people here, the pedestrians in front and behind were more than ten meters apart.

In such an environment, he couldn't show the slightest hesitation, and immediately said, "The lover of my dreams must have an oval face, phoenix eyes, a tall and slender figure with a cold temperament, and must be a doctor, preferably a doctor of cardiovascular medicine who also studies Chinese medicine and knows acupuncture. If she doesn't meet these conditions, I definitely won't look for her."

After saying these words, Zhou Zhiyuan believed that his "Mastering the Art of Conversation" skill was completely complete, definitely at the grandmaster level.

And he had evidence, Shen Lanyin smiled very happily, walked into the military compound, looked around to see that no one was around, and even took the initiative to reach out and grab his hand.

This was Shen Lanyin's first initiative, proving with facts that his "Mastering the Art of Conversation" skill had indeed been completely mastered.
