I hide the white roses behind me

Chapter 245 Let’s Go Together
Since reuniting with Kim Ye-rin, Bae Joo-hyun hasn't been to the trainee building for a long time.

So, after seeing Liu Zhimin, even Bae Zhuxuan, who usually doesn't show any expression, couldn't help but take a few more glances at her.

Have companies started recruiting people with appearances that are different from the previous selection criteria?
"Doctor Lin, maybe you know what's bothering Ming Jingnan recently? Has she told you anything?"

I didn't expect to meet Lin Zengxian here. There weren't many people around, so Lin Nayeon and Bae Joo-hyun each took out a mask and put it on, and walked for a while with "Dr. Lin".

"she……"

He opened his mouth, and the figure of Ming Jingnan that day flashed before his eyes. Lin Zengxian had words on the tip of his tongue, but he didn't know where to start.

He hasn't contacted Ming Jingnan in recent days.

In his opinion, it is normal for Mingjingnan to feel "helpless".

The reason why I didn't tell Mingjing Nan about the news about Sumitomo Motonobu was that as an outsider, I shouldn't interfere. It was also normal for Mingjing Nan to feel emotional about this kind of "unfair" behavior between friends, and maybe even to vent his anger on her.

However, it was clear that Ming Jingnan was not just feeling emotional that day.

Lin Zengxian didn't think about the reason. He thought Ming Jingnan just needed to calm down for a while.

After that day, Lin Zengxian made a special call to the Saito family and asked about Sumitomo Motonobu's situation again, confirming that he was a good young man.

Most marriages cannot be based on the factor of "love", or it cannot be based solely on the factor of "love". There are many aspects to consider, and it is not uncommon for both parties to agree and compromise after repeated consideration or involuntarily.

Moreover, you can “like” someone as much as you want when you are in a relationship, but “liking” cannot be used as food, and marriage requires “food”.

"I should be able to understand what she was upset about, but she didn't tell me much."

Therefore, Lin Zengxian did not think that he had the position or room to speak out.

"I see. She's been in a bad state lately."

After receiving the unexpected answer, Lim Nayeon was at a loss for a moment and could only hope that her teammates could figure it out on their own.

Lin Nayeon's voice ran past his ears along with the sound of the wind, and Lin Zengxian was a little absent-minded.

[You think it doesn’t matter who I marry, as long as it doesn’t destroy our cooperation, right?]
Famous well...

[I will never be like Uesugi-kun and Maya, and I won’t even make you feel at ease like Makoto, right?]
she……

[Excuse me, ally.]
how……

Lin Zengxian closed his eyes briefly for two or three seconds.

"Can you please help me make an appointment with Mingjing?"

Once again unexpectedly, Lin Nayeon blinked and was slightly stunned when she saw Dr. Lin, who was rumored to have "fallen from the sky" to Ming Jingnan in the outlet mall.

It seems that Ming Jingnan is in a bad mood, perhaps Doctor Lin is also responsible?
Could it be...

"Okay, okay, I'll tell her. After we set the time and place...um, I'll contact you?"

Lin Nayeon quickly suppressed the plots and scenes of the prime-time TV dramas in her mind and reminded herself not to let her imagination run wild. She nodded rapidly and agreed repeatedly.

"Okay, thank you very much for bothering you."

Having received just the right amount of help, Lin Zengxian took out his cell phone and exchanged phone numbers with Lin Nayeon.

Walking on the other side of Lin Zengxian, Bae Joo-hyun, who had been watching quietly, looked at Lin Zengxian, whose face showed no emotion, then looked at Lin Nayeon, who didn't intend to speak anymore, took her hand out of her pocket, stretched it in front of Lin Zengxian, and spread out her palm.

"Have a candy, to replenish your sugar intake, big, boy."

There was a lukewarm light in Bae Joo-hyun's eyes, and a local candy was placed in her palm. Just as Lin Zengxian had jokingly called her "little girl" before, she now called Lin Zengxian "big boy" word by word.

She didn't know what Lin Nayeon was talking about just now, didn't know the relationship between Lin Zengxian and that incident, whether Lin Zengxian played any role in that incident, didn't know the extent of the friendship between Lin Zengxian and the junior named Ming Jingnan, and didn't know what Lin Zengxian was thinking now.

However, as she looked at Lin Zengxian, who did not show any emotion at all, she was certain that he was physically and mentally exhausted.

No reason, no hesitation, she trusted her intuition.

"Thank you."

After a very quick pause, there was a hint of brightness in Lin Zengxian's originally calm eyes, and even the corners of his mouth lifted.

Although he didn't know how Bae Joo-hyun could tell that he was tired, her kindness was obvious. Lin Zengxian reached out and picked up the candy.

"It's delicious."

In order to express his gratitude and friendship, Lin Zengxian immediately opened the candy wrapper and put the candy into his mouth.

The sweetness is just right, not greasy at all.

"But do you have hypoglycemia? Do you carry candies with you, or do you like to eat candies?" Although the patient was not one he had been responsible for, Lin Zengxian decided to ask one more question for reasons of his profession because of his relationship with this person who had just shown him kindness.

"Neither. My sister sent me a letter with a bag of candy, so there is this candy."

Taking out another candy from her pocket, Bae Joo-hyun handed it to Lin Nayeon in front of Lin Zengxian.

"letter?"

The unexpected development made the light in Lin Zengxian's eyes more obvious.

"Yes, my family has the habit of writing letters, and my family members have always sent me letters."

Bae Joo-hyun pursed her lips, lowered her head slightly, raised her hand to tidy up her hair, and symbolically covered the embarrassed smile on her face.

What she said was true; her family really had the habit of writing letters.

At the same time, she also knew that Lin Zengxian was a nostalgic person.

"I think it's great. Although technology is so advanced now and communication is very convenient, the significance of handwritten letters is still irreplaceable."

Lin Zengxian nodded, agreeing with the Pei family's warm and caring attitude towards life and family.

"Doctor Lin, do you plan to write a letter recently? To someone you think is important."

As if to open the topic, Bae Joo-hyun took half a step towards Lin Zengxian, looked straight ahead, and quickened her pace by half a beat.

Originally, she wanted to ask Lin Zengxian if he also had the habit of writing letters, but when the words came out of her mouth, she stopped.

Writing letters is something that has a strong sense of ritual and belief, and it is not easy for young people to do it. She does not know Lin Zengxian's past, nor does she know Lin Zengxian's "surroundings". If she rashly says this, will it touch upon the possible concerns of Dr. Lin?

Thinking this, Bae Joo-hyun changed her words temporarily, turning the unstable inquiry into a proposal for communication.

Since you don't know Dr. Lin's past, don't show curiosity or inquisitiveness. Just treat Dr. Lin as he is now, within the scope of your ability.

What if Dr. Lin, who is working alone abroad, has not had an easy past?
"Hearing what you said, I think it's a good idea to write a handwritten letter and send it to the teacher along with the gift. He will be happy."

Thinking of Professor Michael, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Lin Zengxian's eyes softened visibly.

Walking behind these three people, Liu Zhimin and Xu Youli subconsciously looked at each other.

Then, one of them curled his lips on the spot, and the other rolled his eyes secretly.

"Oppa, you didn't eat much in the hospital just now, why don't we find a store to eat something?"

Liu Zhimin took a step forward and reached out to gently tug on Lin Zengxian's windbreaker.

Xu Youli, who was at the back, looked at the scene in front of her and touched the position of her brooch.

You see, when there are a lot of people around, you don’t have to call him brother in Chinese, you can call him oppa instead.

So, what right do you have to care about my brooch?

"Are you hungry? Let's go get something to eat."

When Lin Zengxian's voice came, Xu Youli sighed silently and slowly clenched her fingers.

He is really nice to you and seems to agree to whatever you say.

but……

Touching the position of her brooch again, Xu Youli thought of the foreign language books she had read repeatedly, and how she could freely enter and leave Lin Zengxian's office, flipping through his medical books, and reading his papers.

Taking a deep breath and nod, Xu Youli took a step forward and followed.

"Then let's go together."

"Come along, I'll treat you, to thank Dr. Lin for helping me so many times before."

The voices of Xu Youli and Bae Zhuxuan sounded at the same time.

Standing outside these four people, Lim Nayeon fluttered her eyelashes and slowly slowed down her pace.

Should I go back to the dormitory first?

Then, she thought of Mingjingnan and the plots and scenes in those prime-time TV dramas.

No, I have to go with you.
