Enchanting His Heart: His Little Fox

Chapter 518: Chapter 516: If You Care About Pride, You’ll Never Find a Wife

"So you just didn’t come to find me?" Song Nuan stared at Lu Yan.

She didn’t know what attitude she should have at this moment.

She was just a bit angry.

Now that it’s all out in the open, it’s actually nothing, just misunderstandings.

He had his considerations, she had hers, they each had their own thoughts. Sometimes, people need proper communication between them.

Communication is the way to resolve problems.

Song Nuan took a deep breath: "If I hadn’t gotten hurt, hadn’t been hospitalized, hadn’t been at the brink of life as I am now, would you have said these things to me?"

"If I hadn’t been hospitalized, would you have planned to never find me again for the rest of your life?"

She felt this question needed to be clarified.

After she left, she blocked Lu Yan, but if he liked her and wanted to be with her, he could definitely find her.

But he didn’t come, nor did he inquire.

This time there was an accident in the lab, Lu Yan, a firefighter, came, he knew she was in trouble. If it were something else, he might not have known what happened to her.

They might never have any contact again in this lifetime.

Lu Yan: "I would come."

He looked at her, his gaze deep: "I like you, I would come to find you."

Song Nuan turned her head away, feeling unsatisfied and uneasy inside.

Lu Yan picked up the bowl of soup again: "Drink the soup first, it’ll get cold soon."

He brought the soup to Song Nuan’s lips, but she still refused to drink. Looking puffed up with anger.

Though she was young, she had her own views on her feelings.

And she had her own understanding; she always knew clearly what her feelings were.

She also knew what she wanted at the moment.

Seeing Song Nuan like this, Lu Yan softened: "I was wrong."

He apologized humbly: "I won’t do this next time."

"I’ll make things clear to my mom too." Lu Yan: "Regarding things about you, I’ll handle everything in advance, arrange it properly, and won’t let you be wronged again."

Lu Yan usually had a fierce, serious, and sharp image.

At this moment, in front of Song Nuan, he was so humble, she felt quite satisfied in her heart. It felt very fulfilling.

Seeing Song Nuan still not speaking, Lu Yan continued: "Give Uncle a chance."

He spoke softly: "You are indeed still young now, if you and I were to break up later, I would let you go. You could still find someone else, since you’re young."

"But I’m not young anymore, it’s time for marriage and settling down. Dating is supposed to lead to marriage." Lu Yan spoke seriously: "Once I decide, I won’t change, but if you want to leave, I won’t hold you back, because truly you may find someone better than me in the future."

Lu Yan didn’t think he was excellent.

Song Nuan, after all, was still studying, at an age where love blossomed. Liking someone older was considered love, and this was normal.

Lu Yan looked at her little face, pursed his lips: "I’ve said everything."

Song Nuan lifted her eyes, looked at Lu Yan: "If I say I don’t like you now, if I want to completely separate from you, would you agree?"

With this question, Lu Yan’s hand gripping the spoon instantly tightened, his deep eyes fixed on her, uncertain of her thoughts.

Through his eyes, Song Nuan could see the deep shock and unease in them.

It seemed he really feared her saying, just like that, let’s break up.

Lu Yan indeed feared this. He could face his feelings directly, but couldn’t accept that it could end just as it began.

Song Nuan didn’t speak, just stared at Lu Yan, waiting for his answer.

Lu Yan lowered his gaze, various thoughts swirling in his mind.

"If you’ve seriously and thoroughly considered it, I’ll agree." Lu Yan said, looking up at Song Nuan: "If you want to separate now, should I consider that your previous seriousness about me was a deception?"

"We’ve already clarified things, but you still want to break up." Lu Yan: "I need a suitable reason."

"The reason is I don’t want to forgive you, is that not acceptable?"

Lu Yan: "As long as you still like me, I’ll pursue you until you forgive."

"Thick-skinned?" Song Nuan asked.

Lu Yan: "Old man shameless because of age."

He looked at Song Nuan and said: "Being ashamed won’t get me a wife."

Song Nuan: "Will you still make me angry in the future?"

Lu Yan: "No more."

He paused for a few seconds, then said: "But if you do something wrong, I’ll have to say it."

"You have lots of bad habits, you need to change."

Song Nuan: "Nonsense."

Lu Yan knew this was forgiveness, smiled: "Drink soup, then eat."

...

This time, Song Nuan obediently ate everything, all fed by Lu Yan.

"Is your mom difficult to get along with?" Song Nuan suddenly asked.

"Get along with me, not my mom," Lu Yan said.

"But I’ll have to talk to your mom in the future, right?" Like when we get married or something.

And there’s that whole mother-in-law relationship, which is rumored to be the hardest one to handle.

"I’ll clarify things with her." Lu Yan: "You don’t have to worry about that."

Song Nuan: "I think so too, but it’s not because you’ll solve it that I’m not worried. It’s because I’m not afraid of your mom being difficult to deal with."

Lu Yan raised his eyebrows, looking at Song Nuan, somewhat puzzled.

Song Nuan said, "You should believe that I have the ability to handle your mom, and even if I can’t, that’s my problem. I’m not that fragile. If your mom doesn’t like me, then there’s nothing I can do. I just have to try my best."

In this aspect, Song Nuan sees things clearly: "And you don’t need to be afraid of her causing trouble for me and humiliating me by not revealing my identity like when I first met your mom at your house."

"Even if you told her, if she makes things hard for me, I wouldn’t be afraid." Song Nuan said earnestly: "I think being your girlfriend means taking on all the risks that come with it. I’ve thought it through, that’s why I’m with you."

Besides, someone like Chen Ya, she can solve them, let alone Lu Yan’s mom.

Even now, there are people at school talking about her taking someone else’s man, but she doesn’t really care. If they have the guts, they should say it to her face, instead of gossiping behind her back.

Gossiping behind her back only proves that she’s ahead of them. Those behind her, she doesn’t need to pay attention to.

Lu Yan patted Song Nuan’s head: "What’s a little head like yours thinking so much for? You’re my girlfriend, I’ll definitely protect you."

He chuckled a bit: "You’re treating this like going to war."

He looked at the bandage on Song Nuan’s neck: "If it still hurts, just talk less."

"I’ll sit with you for a while."

"Are you leaving?"

"I’ll leave in a bit, snuck out during lunch."

Song Nuan: "So you haven’t had lunch yet?"

"I’ll eat when I head back later." Lu Yan looked at Song Nuan: "I’ll come to see you after work this afternoon."

"Help me go to the school and ask the teacher for the papers and materials." Song Nuan said: "I have to take the college entrance exam, can’t delay."

"If you’re resting, just rest well, don’t think about these things." Lu Yan frowned: "With your current ability, the college entrance exam won’t be a problem."

"I know it won’t be a problem." Song Nuan: "But I don’t just want to pass the exam, I want to be the top scorer."

"Why?"

"Sense of accomplishment, a milestone in life; if you’re going to do it, be number one. Aim for number one, only then does anything have meaning. Don’t study just to go through the motions, study with a goal."

Seeing Song Nuan like this, Lu Yan couldn’t help but ask, "What’s the goal then?"

Song Nuan shrugged, smiled: "I don’t know. But studying well is never wrong. Knowledge is your own, even without a goal, it’s important to do the current things well and lay the foundation for your future."

Lu Yan chuckled: "Quite thoughtful."

"I’ll fetch them for you, but make sure to take care, you should focus on recovering now."

"Okay."

...

Inside a certain advanced research institute.

"The results indeed show it’s a chronic drug." A man’s voice slowly said.

He wore a white lab coat, gold-rimmed glasses, looked quite refined, holding a report.

This was the drug test that Tang Si had previously sent over.

Tang Si sat on the sofa, looked up at him: "Chronic?"

"You’ve come for checks before." Bo Shiyin gently pushed up his glasses, his tone mild: "Actually, your depression is related to this drug. I prescribed this. Someone definitely switched the drug on you. Also, before, there must have been someone drugging you."

"I advise you to investigate thoroughly." Bo Shiyin took the report and sat across from Tang Si: "After all, someone wants you dead without a trace, since... suicide wouldn’t have a murderer."

Tang Si rubbed his temples slightly: "Previously, was this an injectable drug?"

Bo Shiyin nodded: "Yes."

"I know who it is."

He’s a policeman, countless times in hospitals.

Wen Mu would always pretend to come see him.

Besides Wen Mu, there’s no one else.

Bo Shiyin raised an eyebrow; he didn’t ask about this nor was he interested in who wants Tang Si dead. He’s just a mundane doctor wanting to make a fortune.

"Recently still having uncontrollable episodes after stopping the medication? You mentioned before, the effects get worse each time." Bo Shiyin: "I think you’re close to having violent tendencies."

"Let’s not talk about that now." Tang Si asked: "The treatment plan you mentioned before?"

Bo Shiyin took a sip from his cup on the table, slowly replied: "The previous plan is now useless for you."

"So?"

Bo Shiyin: "New plan, costs more."

"Heh..." Tang Si chuckled, also took a sip of water, slowly said: "If I have violent tendencies, you’d be the first to go cold."

His tone was calm, without much emotion, yet chillingly sharp, making one uneasy.

"Cough." Bo Shiyin felt somewhat threatened, he leaned back, adjusted his glasses: "It’s not that severe yet."

"Just—"

"Hmm?" Bo Shiyin hadn’t finished when he saw on the surveillance, a woman entering through the main entrance: "Why is she coming over?"
