My Beautiful Love

On the first chance Qian Li had to go back to Country C, he rushed over. He met Wan Jia at a restaurant as soon as he arrived.

"Why do you look like you're ready to flee?" Wan Jia asked him when she saw his expression. He was looking around nervously.

"Because I really am ready to flee. Who is to say that Lu Aotian didn't ask you to lure me out?"

Wan Jia chuckled. "Your imagination sure is wild. For a genius, I'm shocked."

"Let's not waste each other's time. You know why I called you." If she spent too much time with him, Lu Aotian might wait too long.

Qian Li passed a small box over the table. "It's for Lu Meili. This will make her immunity so strong that she will never get sick after getting cured of CML. I'm not much of a pediatrician but I'm sure about this one. You don't have to thank me."

Wan Jia didn't reach for it. "Why are you giving it to me?"

Qian Li looked conflicted about something. "Never mind."

"Fine. Then why is your father attacking my family's company?"

For this, Qian Li chuckled. "If we both fight over something that originally belongs to neither of us and I get it, you give up but then later I also forcefully take something that can only belong to you, wouldn't you be angry? If I was wearing that shoe, forget about making a company go bankrupt. I would make things so difficult for your family that your ancestors would turn in their graves."

"What do you mean?"

"It's none of your concern. I'm leaving. By the way, the pill I gave you just now will expire if you don't use it within six months."

Wan Jia remained perplexed. Did Qian Li mean that Qian Ye and Lin Zhou fought over something, Lin Zhou won but even after Qian Ye lost, Lin Zhou later snatched something that solely belonged to Qian Ye? What weird analogy was that?

If they were not such grown middle aged men, she would think Qian Li was talking about a feud over a woman.

When she left the restaurant, the first question she asked Lu Aotian was, "How old is Qian Li?"

"He's twenty two this year."

"I see." She was suddenly impressed by his medical prowess. Such a young lad. Perhaps it was his medical ability that made people subconsciously think he was much older To think he was dead set on blindly helping her...Eer..."Wait, he's twenty two and my sister is thirty one. I suddenly have a rash thought. It would make a lot of sense."

"Your sister was adopted." He chopped off her imagination mercilessly.

"But I'm a little over twenty four. It would still make sense. Actually, it would make more sense with me since I'm also the one they are trying to help."

Lu Aotian rubbed her head. "Do you dislike Lin Zhou that much? Don't think too much. I already investigated and there is no past connection between Qian Ye and Xia Rou. Besides, he has a family."

"Oh." Since Lu Aotian investigated, there had to be no connection. Forget about it. As long as they didn't hurt her. "He gave me a pill for Little Jia."

Lu Aotian silently took it from her hand. He didn't know what to think anymore.

…

The Lin residence.

After spending time together for many days, Lin Lihua felt it was right to introduce Henry Blanc to her parents. That, and the fact that they had waited for so long to meet him. Also, he was leaving the country in a week and was not sure when he would be back.

The Lins were especially welcoming. Xia Rou didn't make things difficult for his son-in-law. Just based on the fact that he was Lu Aotian's friend, she believed that he was a good man who would take perfect care of her daughter.

"Where do the both of you plan to settle down?" she asked.

"Lihua and I already discussed that. We will move Le Blanc Group's headquarters here and live in Southside."

Xia Rou was even happier. Although she wouldn't hold her daughter back from her happiness if she wanted to follow him to Country F, it was better that he was not taking her away.

"Our Lihua is so precious to us. You must take good care of her."

"Auntie, I will never disappoint you."

"You child, it will not be too long before you change your way of addressing me and call me 'mother-in-law'."

"Enough mum, if you nag him too much, I will have to complain." Lin Lihua said.  

Lin Zhou finally had something to say. "I hear you are starting a new project in City H. It's quite big. Do you need to collaborate with any company?"

Henry Blanc said modestly, "I already got two. Lu Enterprises and Xu Real Estate."

"What about your wife's company? Shouldn't that be the main priority?"

"Dad!" Lin Lihua scolded. "Henry and I still have some things to do. I'll drop by the company later." She smiled awkwardly.

...

"Why did you stop him? I don't mind stepping in." Henry Blanc spoke once they were out of Lin Residence.

"Thank you, but I'm handling that on my own."

"If you think anything is too difficult for you, you must remember that you are a woman with a husband. You can't be too hard on yourself."

"I don't think it's difficult enough for me to need a man's help." She believed that her father was either being paranoid or he was the only one being targeted.

"Are you free tonight? Let's go out for dinner."
