Five years after their breakup, a prominent lawyer is desperately seeking reconciliation.

Anzhou Maternity Hospital was the hospital where Zhang Haiyun gave birth.

In the obstetrics and gynecology department's consultation room, Jiang Wan slowly sat down opposite the chief physician.

The old doctor looked up and asked routinely, "How many months? Give me the report."

"It's like this, I lost a child in an accident five years ago. I haven't been able to get pregnant in the past few years while I'm abroad, and I always have lower abdominal pain. I've been to the hospital for examinations many times, but all to no avail."

Jiang Wan's words were a mix of truth and falsehood, as she produced the report from the overseas re-examination.

Although the test report is in English, the names of the relevant data are all the same, so it doesn't pose any difficulty for the doctor.

"Doctor, I came here because of your reputation. I have a neighbor who has been infertile for many years. She visited you a few times eight years ago and received several treatments. She gave birth to a son at an advanced age. Just a few days ago, she said she wanted to come and present you with a banner."

The old doctor squinted and smiled, "It's a doctor's responsibility. Why send a banner... What's the patient's name?"

Jiang Wan spoke each word clearly: "Zhang Haiyun."

The old doctor looked blank: "Zhang Haiyun? I don't remember her."

His assistant next to him suddenly looked up and stared at Jiang Wan.

"Who are you talking about? Zhang Haiyun? She's going to give us a banner?"

Jiang Wan, not understanding, nodded: "Yes, she said she was cured of infertility by you, and she recommended you to more than just me."

The assistant gave a cold laugh and said no more.

The old doctor looked at her, his face still showing doubt.

The assistant glanced at Jiang Wan, then leaned close to the old doctor's ear and whispered.

Jiang Wan subtly leaned forward, but still heard nothing.

After hearing his assistant's words, the old doctor suddenly realized what was going on, and his face turned grim.

"That woman, I don't know what she meant by introducing you here, and we dare not accept her banner."

He gathered the list together and pushed it back to Jiang Wan.

"Judging from the results, there's nothing wrong with your health. Go back and let nature take its course."

Jiang Wan was kicked out, and with a heavy heart, she walked through the hospital lobby and headed out.

It seems that Zhang Haiyun must have done something to make the medical staff remember her so vividly.

But what exactly happened?

She pinched her brow helplessly, unwilling to have come up with nothing.

"Wanwan!"

A familiar voice came from the side, and Gu Yang walked towards him with a smile.

"Wanwan, is that really you? What are you doing here? Are you sick? Which department are you in?"

His gaze fell on the English forms in her hand, and his face flushed.

"Still...the same old problem?"

Jiang Wan hummed in agreement and put the form away.

After the surgery, I left in a hurry without proper care, which left me with serious aftereffects.

During those years abroad, whenever I suffered unbearable abdominal pain and couldn't get out of bed, Gu Yang was the only person I could rely on.

That's why Fang Tian was able to find those photos of Gu Yang accompanying her to the hospital.

"You came all the way from Haicheng? Are there any good doctors here?"

Jiang Wan gave him a perfunctory reply and asked, "What are you doing here?"

"The hospital's cafeteria is being upgraded and renovated. We signed a supply contract with the Gu family, and I'm in charge of this project."

He raised his wrist to check his watch: "It's getting late, let's go have lunch and chat while we eat."

To be honest, it's exciting to meet familiar friends in an unfamiliar place.

But Jiang Wan was preoccupied with her own thoughts and ate the meal absentmindedly.

"Wanwan."

Gu Yang put down his cutlery and looked at her intently.

Do you remember what I said last time?

Jiang Wan was confused, not knowing which sentence he was referring to.

"I told you, you can trust me. You can tell me anything you want to confide in me or need help with. Didn't we always trust each other and rely on each other during those years in America?"

"It's the same now; you can trust me unconditionally."

He gazed at Jiang Wan quietly, his cool eyes shimmering with a gentle light, like a tranquil, clear lake.

It makes people feel safe and trusting without them even realizing it.

Jiang Wan licked her lips, thought for a moment, and said softly, "Gu Yang, can you do me a favor?"

Gu Yang suddenly burst into laughter, his eyes sparkling with joy.

"You're currently in charge of this hospital project. Could you help me inquire about something that happened eight years ago from someone inside the hospital?"

.........

Lu Jingshi's Maybach was parked in the underground garage.

As I stepped into the elevator and pressed the button, just as the elevator doors were slowly closing, a hand suddenly reached in.

The elevator doors opened again, and a figure rushed in.

"Brother Lu, wait for me."

Panting, Qian Xianxian put her hands on her hips and casually pressed the button for the 18th floor.

Lu Jingshi's heart stirred slightly, and he asked her in a cold voice, "You're going to the 18th floor? Which apartment?"

"Jiang Wan's house."

Lu Jingshi's eyes flickered slightly, but his tone remained calm and even: "She missed a few days of work, and she finally decided to come back?"

Five days ago, he angrily rejected her leave application and changed it to unexcused absence.

I thought she would call and question me, but to my surprise, she ignored me and didn't even send a single message.

"Didn't she take a month off? Why is she back so soon? I'm here to walk her dog."

"She...asked you for help? She called you?"

Qian Xianxian rolled her eyes slightly and nodded emphatically: "We text each other every day, and she even told me to contact you if I need anything."

Lu Jingshi rolled his eyes almost imperceptibly and ignored her.

Shit!

Qian Xianxian quietly stuck out her tongue; it was definitely not Jiang Wan who had asked her to walk the dog.

In fact, Jiang Wan asked Xiao Wu, who lived nearby, to help her take her dog to a pet store for boarding.

However, Xiao Wu casually mentioned that Jiang Wan lived downstairs from Lu Jingshi, so he volunteered to help feed and walk the dog every day.

Jiang Wan was extremely grateful and wanted to transfer money to her, but Qian Xianxian firmly refused.

Walking the dog was just a side thing; her real target was Lu Jingshi.

Today is the fifth day of walking the dog, and she finally caught him.

The elevator stopped on the 18th floor. Qian Xianxian turned around and said, "Brother Lu, I'm actually a little afraid of dogs. Could you... come with me?"

Lu Jingshi snorted coldly, about to refuse, but then, as if remembering something, he silently stepped out with her.

At Jiang Wan's door, the smart lock kept issuing false alarms, and Qian Xianxian awkwardly took out her phone.

"I've been smoking too much, and my memory's gotten worse. I clearly remember this being the one, but I'm not sure. Let me check again."

Lu Jingshi took a deep breath and pushed her aside.

After hesitating for a moment, I pressed the number that was already etched into my memory on the panel.

Welcome home!

The door unlocked with a click, and Qian Xianxian exclaimed "Wow!", whistled, and pushed the door open to go inside.

Lu Jingshi, meanwhile, stared at the wide-open door, his heart burning with emotion.

A white figure suddenly pounced out. When it saw Lu Jingshi, the white figure stopped and affectionately lowered its head to rub against his leg.

Qian Xianxian chased after the dog out of the house with the dog leash in hand, and was very surprised to see this scene.

"Do you come here often, Brother Lu? I take care of it every day and it's so tiring, but it licks you like this."

Lu Jingshi smiled slightly, took the rope and gently put it around Summer's neck, then rubbed its fluffy head.

"Perhaps... this is fate."

He then got up.

"You don't need to come anymore, Summer doesn't know you well."
