Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Feng Jing, cut that out. You know that I’m interested in Xiaotao. Are you still my brother?’
Feng Jing fell silent for a moment after hearing what Lin Jia said. “What’s the progress now?”
‘What progress? My gift has been returned. Sigh. ‘
Hearing Lin Jia’s answer, Feng Jing recalled that Yin Tao had said that she wanted to return Lin Jia’s necklace. It seemed she had really done so. ‘Why did you give such an expensive gift in the first place? It would be strange if she didn’t return it.”
“I’m just anxious. My family is rushing me. I want to get married as soon as possible so that my family won’t nag me.”
Feng Jing was surprised by what Lin Jia said. He recalled that Lin Jia didn’t have marriage on his mind in the beginning.
“You want to get married? To Yin Tao?” Feng Jing asked.
“Yes, but she hasn’t even agreed to be my girlfriend. Why would she marry me?,
Feng Jing didn’t know why Lin Jia’s attitude had changed so much. ‘You... are serious about Yin Tao?”
Feng Jing couldn’t help but ask. Lin Jia had had many girlfriends in the past, but they had never gotten to the point of considering marriage. Feng Jing had always felt that although Lin Jia wasn’t exactly a playboy, he was definitely not a saint either. At the very least, he had never thought that he would want to get married.
“I’m serious.” Lin Jia said without any hesitation. ‘Xiaotao is really good. If she’s willing to marry me, I’m naturally willing to be with her forever.”
Lin Jia thought for a moment and added to Feng Jing, “Anyway, I won’t give up on Xiaotao for now. She’s the first girl whom I felt was worth fighting for. You know that I don’t like to leave regrets for myself.”
“Alright, I wish you success. I’ll contact you before I go to the Children’s Home.”
After ending the call with Lin Jia, Feng Jing felt a little conflicted. Earlier on, he was pleased to hear Feng Ya say that Yin Tao might like him. However, after talking to Lin Jia on the phone, Feng Jing felt that he shouldn’t come between Lin Jia and Yin Tao.
If Lin Jia was really serious about dating Yin Tao, he would definitely be able to give her more care and concern. As Lin Jia’s best friend, he wouldn’t do anything to destroy his happiness.
After sorting out his emotions, Feng Jing returned to the bedroom on the second floor. He had already made a decision in his heart. Feng Jing’s mind suddenly became much clearer. As he had believed, it wasn’t the time for him to get involved in a relationship.
The following morning, Yin Tao was planning to visit Zhang Rui at the hospital when she received a call from Yin Hao. It was her parents’ wedding anniversary that day. Yin Tao wasn’t planning to go home, but on Yin Hao’s insistence, she could only agree to do so.
Before leaving the dormitory, Yin Tao slowly removed the obvious gauze wrapped around her neck A scab had already formed on the wound. Yin Tao found a black silk scarf from the cabinet and wrapped it around her neck. She made sure the wound was completely covered up before leaving the dormitory.
Yin Hao’s silver sports car was a little conspicuous outside the police station. Yin Tao jogged all the way to the car, not wanting her colleagues at the police station to see her.
‘Why are you in such a hurry? I thought you didn’t have any cases today?” Yin Hao was looking very formal in a black suit.
“I’m fine.” Yin Tao noticed Yin Hao’s attire and looked at her casual clothes with some worry. “Brother, am I fine dressed like this?”
“It’s fine, but we are meeting our relatives after all. Let’s go to the mall to get a change of clothes.” Yin Hao started the car and was going to head to the nearest mall.
‘Why don’t I go back to the dormitory to change? I have clothes that are slightly more formal. There’s no need to buy any more.”
Yin Hao had no intention of stopping the car. Instead, he smiled and said to Yin
Tao, “Go buy a new outfit. Take it as a gift from me.”
After arriving at the mall with Yin Hao, Yin Tao had wanted to quickly choose a set of clothes and leave. However, she ran into an acquaintance.
“Dr. Yin?” Le Yuan was shopping at the mall with a few girls. She didn’t expect to meet Yin Tao, who was shopping for clothes with Yin Hao.
Yin Tao frowned in displeasure when she heard Le Yuan’s voice. This woman had clearly shown hostility towards her last time, and she didn’t have a good impression of her.
“Doctor Le, what a coincidence.” Yin Tao smiled politely at Le Yuan. She casually picked up a piece of clothing and wanted to take the opportunity to leave, but Le Yuan stopped her.
“Don’t go, Forensic doctor Yin. I left in a hurry the last time. There are still some things I haven’t asked.”
Yin Tao could tell that Le Yuan had deliberately emphasized the words ‘forensic doctor’. The other girls beside her also played along and gave disgusted looks..
