Beijing-Hong Kong Affair

Chapter 52 Drawing a Clear Boundary
Lin Xian's eyes were a little surprised. She couldn't tell whether Jiang Yunian's words were true or false.

"I haven't been out of Beijing in all these years. Going to Gangcheng is my first time leaving Beijing. How could I have seen you?"

Jian Shiya was afraid that Jiang Yunian was the kind of person who was very good at hooking women, so she immediately said with vigilance: "Doctor Jiang, our Xianbao is timid and can't stand being scared. Please explain clearly, what grudge did you have before?"

Seeing the two girls looking like they were facing a great enemy, Jiang Yunian curved his lips slightly and said, "I was just joking, so you wouldn't think I was too serious."

Lin Xian breathed a sigh of relief, "You scared me to death."

Jiang Yunian stared at Lin Xian, "I'm sorry for not being able to contact you in time yesterday."

Lin Xian lowered her eyes and replied in a low voice: "We will talk about this later, you eat first."

"Well, okay. Let's have a good chat alone."

Jiang Yunian's eyes were always on Lin Xian, and Jian Shiya even felt that she was redundant.

"Xianbao, I remembered I have something to do at school. I'll go pay the bill. You guys take your time eating."

Jiang Yunian immediately stood up and said, "Miss Jian, I'll take you there."

Jian Shiya was a little flattered. She glanced at Lin Xian, and Lin Xian nodded at her.

Jiang Yunian went to the bar and paid first, "It doesn't make sense for a girl to pay when I'm here."

Jian Shiya was stunned at first, and then finally couldn't help but speak, "If you want to use this to please me, forget it. I know that your marriage is fake, and Lin Xian is a straightforward person. I just hope you don't hurt her."

Jiang Yunian said modestly, "I will never hurt her. What I just said is true. But I am afraid that she will have a psychological burden. I think Miss Jian is a reasonable person. Could you please give me an address? I will give you a gift later."

"What? Are you going to bribe me?" Jian Shiya asked with her hands behind her back.

Although Jiang Yunian's actions were already a plus, she also wanted to open her eyes and take a good look to see if this person was sincere.

Jiang Yunian nodded seriously and said bluntly: "Well, I want to know more about her, the better. I'm leaving it to you."

Jian Shiya glanced at Lin Xian, who was sitting obediently, from a distance and threatened, "I'm telling you, I'm a very good fighter. If you dare to treat her badly, I can really hit you."

"Please also ask Miss Jane to supervise me at all times. I am very lucky that she has a friend like you."

Jiang Yunian's attitude was so good that Jian Shiya couldn't say anything harsh. "Well, you go back. Oh, write down my cell phone number."

Jian Shiya reported a string of numbers, and Jiang Yunian wrote them down silently.

Back at the dining table, Lin Xian and Jiang Yunian were the only two guests left in the entire restaurant.

Jiang Yu finally couldn't help but reach out and hook her fingers, "Ah Xian, what happened yesterday was an accident. I didn't know Zhou Jiatong would get drunk and go crazy. I apologize to you."

Lin Xian's eyes moved slightly, "I know, it's none of your business, and you don't have to apologize."

Jiang Yunian felt a dull pain in his heart. His Ah Xian was always so sensible.

He would rather she had a fight with him and act like a little girl.

Instead of being so sensible and considerate.

"Doctor Jiang, when are we going to..."

"Let's go get the marriage certificate. The marriage certificate in China is a red book, right? I think it's more festive than the one in Hong Kong."

Jiang Yunian interrupted Lin Xian. He knew that after yesterday's farce, Lin Xian would definitely want to back down, so he would never give her any chance.

Lin Xian was anxious and broke free from Jiang Yunian's fingers, "Doctor Jiang, your parents probably won't agree to our marriage."

"Don't worry about them. I'll make an appointment with your mentor later. Come with me to meet him."

Rather than discussing divorce, Lin Xian now hopes to meet her mentor, "How did you get an appointment with him?"

"Ah Xian, don't forget that I am also a doctor."

Lin Xian quickly helped Jiang Yunian pick up a piece of freshly grilled meat and said, "When are we going to meet him? I still owe Teacher Li an apology."

Looking at her expectant eyes, Jiang Yunian wanted to take advantage of her misfortune.

The kiss yesterday was gone in an instant.

He only remembered that Lin Xian's lips were very soft, but before he could feel anything more, he was interrupted.

"Well, I'll tell you after I finish eating. I'll trouble Ah Xian to help me grill the meat."

Lin Xian worked hard and not only grilled the meat, but also helped him wrap it with lettuce. "Add some garlic and green pepper to relieve the greasiness."

Jiang Yunian looked at the meat that Lin Xian handed over and took a bite.

It was rich and mellow, and just as she said, it tasted great.

"What are you doing? Why don't you take it yourself?"

"It's easy to say."

Jiang Yunian not only did not take it, but held her hand and continued to take a bite.

Lin Xian had no choice but to hand the remaining meat to his mouth with a blushing face.

After a few visits, the waiters were envious.

After finally finishing the meal, Jiang Yunian did not take Lin Xian to meet anyone immediately. Instead, he suddenly decided to take a stroll around the Peking University campus.

"Doctor Jiang, where did you arrange to meet Teacher Li?"

Jiang Yunian's lips curved slightly, "Are you afraid that I will lie? Don't worry, I never lie to you. I just want to see where you go to school."

I want to be closer to you.

Eat the food you like and walk the path you have walked.

Pretend that I have accompanied you through those sceneries where you didn’t have time to stop.

Lin Xian couldn't refuse directly, so she took Jiang Yunian for a walk in Peking University, "We are only in the medical department here, and we can't see the Weiming Lake. You can go there if you have a chance."

“The scenery here is nice too.”

"I actually like HKU more because I can see the sea. Sometimes after class, I stand on a high place and watch the sunset, which makes me feel calm."

Jiang Yunian glanced at Lin Xian and said, "Have you ever thought about changing schools directly? I can help you try."

"No, I'm just going on an exchange for a year and will be back soon. My major is a bachelor's, master's and doctoral degree program. I will rotate to the hospital later, and I will still work here in the future."

Jiang Yunian felt a little depressed. He always felt that Lin Xian's words were suggestive and that she wanted to draw a clear line between them.

A cold wind blew and he sneezed several times in succession.

"Do you want to go buy some clothes?" Lin Xian wanted to remind him just now, but he kept leading her away.

Jiang Yunian raised his hand and glanced at his watch. "No, it's time to go find your teacher."

Lin Xian felt that the watch looked familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it.

A month later, Lin Xian finally met the teacher and apologized profusely.

Li Shanming waved his hand and said, "It's okay. It's just a one-time evaluation. It's not a big deal. The most important thing is to meet such an excellent young doctor like Dr. Jiang. He is not only good at practical operations, but also a leader in scientific research. Shall we go visit the laboratory first?"

"Thank you, Mr. Li. We were just discussing experiences together."

After spending an afternoon in the laboratory, the two had a great conversation.

When it was time for dinner, Li Shanming took Jiang Yunian directly to the food stalls near the school.

After a few drinks, the two men began to treat each other like brothers.

Lin Xian went to the bathroom, and when she came back she heard Li Shanming pulling Jiang Yunian and saying, "This child has suffered so much, she has swallowed all the suffering in her heart. You are a good person, help her."

Jiang Yunian patted his chest and said, "No problem, leave it to me. I promise that she will live a safe and secure life for the rest of her life."

Lin Xian felt a little uncomfortable and walked over to take away Jiang Yunian's wine glass, "You can't drink anymore."

"I'm happy today, let me have two more drinks."

Jiang Yunian's cheeks were abnormally red, and it was obvious that he was not a very alcoholic.

"No, if you drink any more I can't move you."

Jiang Yunian leaned close to her ear, his hot breath sweeping across her neck, "You don't have to touch me, I can touch you."
