"Thank you, Lin Chen, for giving such a happy day, thank you for letting know how wonderful the feeling of being in love is."
Sophina's face was always graced with a happy smile; today she was not the beautiful CEO, nor the Ice Queen—she was just Lin Chen's girlfriend, Lin Chen's woman.
However, she knew that this sweet ti would eventually pass, that this man would soon leave her. Thinking of this, Sophina felt a sense of suffocation, a deep pain in her heart—she couldn't bear to part with Lin Chen.
As the sunset fell, Sophina reluctantly clung to Lin Chen's arm.
"I want to drink, will you join ?"
Lin Chen nodded.
That night, the two of them sat by the river, drinking a lot; Sophina got drunk.
"Lin Chen, do you know, I like you!"
"I can't bear you leaving, can you not go?"
Sophina cried out loud, these were the words she had always wanted to tell Lin Chen. Although she knew she was not good enough for him, she still had to say it, she wanted Lin Chen to know, because this was her first love, the first ti she had deeply fallen in love with a man.
Tears slowly stread down her cheeks, her beautiful eyes seed a bit blurred; lying in Lin Chen's arms felt so warm.
She wanted to rember this feeling in her heart, she wanted to keep this warmth forever.
When Lin Chen took Sophina ho, it was already daybreak.
Lin Chen held Sophina, placed her on the bed, and was just about to leave, but he was tightly embraced by Sophina.
"Lin Chen, I want to be your woman, even if it's just this once."
"You're drunk, Sophina!" Lin Chen said with a smile.
"I'm not drunk, I want to be your woman; you can't refuse , Lin Chen!" Tears began to fall from the corners of Sophina's eyes.
Lin Chen had a soft heart and was pushed down onto the bed by Sophina.
In the morning, when Sophina woke up, Lin Chen was no longer there; she knew that the man she loved had left.
But she was happy, because today she had finally beco his woman.
Lin Chen told no one, and he went straight to the airport; he disliked farewells and did not want to see girls cry.
T country had given him too many beautiful mories, Xu Jiayi, Sophina, Wei Ling, Ah Shi...
But he had to leave; Ah Shi had given him clues about the flower of life, and this gave him new hope.
Four lines of an ancient poem, four great hidden families, the Union of the Gifted, the flower of life...
Lin Chen knew that this trip to Zhonghai would present unprecedented challenges.
However, no matter how difficult the road ahead was, even if there was a glimr of hope, he had to find the flower of life and wake up Xiaowen.
In a clinic straddling the border of a city and the countryside in Zhonghai, a bald doctor sat dozing in a chair.
Suddenly, soone knocked on the table, "Are you hiring an intern doctor here?"
"Of course, why, are you interested in applying?" Li Fuyou asked the young man with glasses.
"Which school did you graduate from?" Li Fuyou asked.
"Huaxia dical University," the man with glasses answered.
"What did you major in?" Li Fuyou's eyes lit up as he continued to ask.
"Clinical dicine," the man with glasses replied.
"Have you read the recruitnt advertisent I posted at the door? Are you willing to work here?" Li Fuyou looked at the young man with a puzzled expression.
Knowing the young man's educational background and field of study, he should have found a decent clinic in the city; why would he co here to apply?
"Of course, I've aspired to be a doctor since childhood, to save lives and help the injured," said the man with glasses, his eyes radiating determination and his gaze filled with the fervor of realizing his dream.
"But our conditions here are poor!" Li Fuyou continued.
"No matter, that's exactly why I've co to the urban-rural fringe. My dream is to help those in need, and this place is the perfect stage to realize that dream," the man with glasses declared, full of passion.
Li Fuyou suddenly felt that the slightly sleazy-looking man in front of him had grown in stature.
"Young man, nowadays it's rare to find doctors like you, who aren't in it for money or fa and solely aim to help the world and save lives."
The man with glasses laughed: "Heh, those people are too superficial."
"Indeed, a salary of two thousand yuan is really too little for you," sighed Li Fuyou.
"Hold on, how much did you say the salary was?" The man with glasses asked, pushing up his glasses and looking utterly confused.
"Two thousand, it's written in the recruitnt ad, isn't it?" Li Fuyou said.
"Dammit, it clearly says twenty thousand!" the man with glasses suddenly exclaid, furious.
"Twenty thousand? Are you kidding ?" Li Fuyou rushed out to check, and sure enough, soone had added an extra zero after the two thousand in the advertisent.
"Sorry about that, must've been so kid pulling a prank, adding an extra zero. How about this, seeing as you're so noble, I'll throw in an extra five hundred, making it a total of two thousand five hundred, how's that?" Li Fuyou, eager to secure talent, suggested.
"Two thousand five hundred must be a joke. This is Zhonghai; that's not even enough to cover my rent," the man with glasses said, his attitude shifting imdiately.
"But this is the place where you can fulfill your dreams!" Li Fuyou reasoned enticingly.
"Dreams be damned, I want money, at least ten thousand," said the man with glasses, pushing his spectacles up again.
Li Fuyou, in a fit of anger, slamd his hand on the table: "Ten thousand? Are you robbing ? Get out! Even if you had a master's or doctorate, I wouldn't hire you."
Standing up in a huff, the man with glasses retorted: "For your shabby little clinic? Not even beggars would co here."
Right then, the door from the back room swung open, and a beautiful woman in a nurse's uniform stepped out.
Li Yuqing had a flawless face, her soft hair cascading over her shoulders, and the white nurse's uniform perfectly accentuated her slender, exquisite curves.
"Dad, the guy was right, even college graduates wouldn't co to our small clinic for two thousand five. You're too stingy," Li Yuqing complained.
At that mont, Ling Chen happened to be passing by the small clinic when his shoelaces ca undone. As he crouched down to tie them, he caught a glimpse of snow-white thighs.
"Damn, that's sexy," he thought.
Ling Chen's eyes then fell upon the recruitnt advertisent nearby.
"Whoa, a monthly salary of twenty thousand and a beautiful nurse too? I absolutely can't let anyone snatch this job away," he thought to himself.
With that in mind, Ling Chen tore the advertisent down and strutted into the clinic.
However, to Ling Chen's disappointnt, Li Yuqing had already left when he entered.
Li Fuyou glanced at Ling Chen: "What are you here for?"
"Breast augntation? This isn't a beauty parlor; go next door if you want enhancents," Li Fuyou said coldly.
Ling Chen laughed awkwardly: "Sorry, slip of the tongue. Actually, I'm here to apply for the job."
"Applying for the job?" Li Fuyou looked Ling Chen up and down.
"You're not here because of the twenty thousand yuan salary written in the recruitnt ad, are you?" Li Fuyou asked disdainfully.
"Of course not. I was drawn in by the beauty," Ling Chen said with a smile.
"What did you say?" Li Fuyou's eyes bulged.
"No, no, I an, I was attracted by you! One look and I can tell you're a highly skilled doctor, and I'm sure there's a lot I could learn from you," Ling Chen said, buttering him up.
