Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1781 The Sun Shines Like Me 10

Siliang, who was left at the hotel entrance, turned around and smiled at Ye Rong: "Rongrong, look, Xiguang's friend seems really amazing. Just by looking at her demeanor, you can tell she's not from an ordinary family. What's more, she has such a handsome and devoted boyfriend. It's really enviable, isn't it?"

Ye Rong wouldn't easily suspect that Si Liang had ill intentions towards her. After all, she and Si Liang were the best friends in the dormitory, especially since neither of them liked Nie Xiguang and both harbored subtle malice towards him. So she didn't think Si Liang was being sarcastic towards her, but she did feel that Si Liang's words had indeed offended her.

Ye Rong always tries to cultivate a certain image for herself in public, so even though she was very unhappy inside, she could still smile and maintain the situation: "Alright, Si Liang, we haven't met all of Xi Guang's friends. The most important thing now is the boss's wedding tomorrow."

The others, especially Zhuang Xu, felt as if they had lost something when they saw Nie Xiguang being rescued, but his thoughts were quickly drawn away by Ye Rong, and he had no time to sort out his feelings for Nie Xiguang.

Once Nie Xiguang got into Lin Yusen's car, his mood couldn't help but sink back into a slump.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Ma Nianyuan saw Nie Xiguang looking like a pitiful little dog soaked in the rain in the rearview mirror. After thinking for a moment, she still remarked, "How about it? After leaving the dormitory, do you feel that there are still more 'normal people' outside?"

Lin Yusen couldn't help but chuckle when he heard Ma Nianyuan's description of her as a "normal person," but he quickly lowered his head to cover it up so as not to embarrass Nie Xiguang.

Nie Xiguang thought that because of the awkward relationship between him and Ma Nianyuan, she wouldn't talk to him. Unexpectedly, she didn't have so many concerns and said whatever came to mind.

Infected by Ma Nianyuan's matter-of-fact and natural attitude, Nie Xiguang felt as if something had quietly returned to him, and with a bitter face, he echoed, "Yeah, I always feel like there aren't many people in the dorm, but the situation is really complicated..."

Ma Nianyuan continued, "The three people standing opposite you just now, the two female classmates both had a subtle hostility towards you, perhaps because you are pretty, perhaps because your personality is more cheerful than theirs, or perhaps the person you like happens to be the same person they like; and the male classmate was even more interesting. He seemed quite aggrieved, and when he looked at you, it was as if he was looking at his cheating girlfriend."

Lin Yusen continued to lower his head and suppress his laughter, not wanting to get involved in the matter between the two girls at all. He just kept driving quietly and tried to minimize his presence.

Hearing Ma Nianyuan describe Zhuang Xu like that, Nie Xiguang forced a bitter smile and couldn't help but ask the question he most wanted answered: "Nianyuan, tell me, what should it be like to love someone..."

Nie Xiguang recalled a time when she suddenly returned to the dormitory and overheard a conversation between Si Liang and Ye Rong behind the curtain. Ye Rong ruthlessly used her as a stepping stone to test Zhuang Xu, and even said that if Zhuang Xu could resist someone as beautiful and radiant as her, she, Ye Rong, would believe in Zhuang Xu's feelings for her and be willing to give him a proper status.

Then she recalled a day before that, when Xiaofeng advised her to give up on Zhuang Xu. Although Zhuang Xu and Ye Rong didn't end up together, almost everyone in the business school knew they were childhood sweethearts and inseparable. If she got involved, she would easily be misunderstood as a third party interfering in their relationship.

Ma Nianyuan glanced at Lin Yusen, and Lin Yusen, as if by telepathy, also looked over. The two smiled at each other, making Nie Xiguang, who was feeling down, feel that there were still many beautiful things happening in the world. Moreover, Ma Nianyuan had just helped her out of a predicament with her boyfriend, so the smile on her face was finally not so bitter.

At this moment, Ma Nianyuan turned to Nie Xiguang and said, "Everyone has their own unique personality, and their behavior in love will naturally be different. But in general, a good relationship will definitely help people improve and become better."

"If you think of someone and the only time it was nice was when you first met them, but after getting to know them properly, whether it's the person or someone around you who makes you feel bad, then you'd better think carefully about whether you want to continue."

"However, liking someone, even if it ends badly, is not a problem, because you just like someone, you haven't done anything wrong, and you haven't violated any morals or broken any laws."

After saying this, Ma Nianyuan shut up. These words were already too intimate for a casual acquaintance, and she was only speaking up because Nie Xiguang himself had a decent personality.

Lin Yusen then tacitly took over the conversation and changed the subject, asking Nie Xiguang directly, "Manager Nie, your classmate just told you not to miss tomorrow's wedding. Looking at tonight's weather, I suggest you don't risk rushing back to Suzhou tonight. What's your opinion?"

Nie Xiguang then realized what was happening, gave the name of a hotel, and then completely shut down.

After dropping Nie Xiguang off, Lin Yusen, on the way back to Ma Nianyuan, suddenly asked, "This place doesn't seem to be where you usually live. I hope I don't run into your aunt. How should I greet her?"

Seeing that Lin Yusen was genuinely worried about this issue, Ma Nianyuan gave up her teasing intentions, but still couldn't help but tease him: "Our Dr. Lin is not only handsome, but also very talented, and his personality is just too good. He's the kind of son-in-law that mothers-in-law would love. You should have more confidence in yourself."

Although Lin Yusen really wanted to take this opportunity to meet Ma Nianyuan's parents, he also knew that the timing was not right and it was too early. He could only hug Ma Nianyuan outside her house for a while before reluctantly driving away.

Once Ma Nianyuan entered the room, Qian Fangping, who had been waiting for a long time, pulled her over and questioned her: "Was that young man your boyfriend?"

"What kind of work do you do? What's your family situation like? How far have things progressed in your relationship?"

Seeing Qian Fangping's radiant face and expectant yet gossipy expression, Ma Nianyuan first offered a small defense: "What boyfriend? He's clearly just a friend!"

Qian Fangping gave her a "don't take me for a fool" look: "Oh dear, the world is really going to the dogs these days, people's hearts have fallen out of fashion. Ordinary friends can hug for ten minutes or more!"

Ma Nianyuan was speechless and could only tell the truth: "His name is Lin Yusen. He used to be a neurosurgeon at the Central Hospital. He resigned two years ago because of a car accident. Now he is my patient and is recovering. He will definitely return to the hospital in the future."

"I didn't specifically inquire about his family situation, but Nie Xiguang told me that he is the grandson of Sheng Xianmin of Shengyuan Group, and they only recently started dating and don't have any further plans for the time being."

Qian Fangping thought Lin Yusen was a good person. "This Lin Yusen, I think, has a pretty good appearance and temperament. If you can settle down, that would be the best."
