Lin Yi’s suggestion

Lin Yi didn’t know what she was thinking anyway, so Guanxin kept this tiny secret to herself, at least that was how she rationalized it…

“What do you want to eat? Facing a master chef like you, I don’t have the courage to casually pick a restaurant. I would feel bad if the food didn’t suit your taste,” Lin Yi smiled as he teased.

“Anything is fine… Am I really that picky? The food in the hospital’s cafeteria has always been bad, but do I have a choice? As bad as it is, I still have to eat it,” Guanxin smiled, “I’m okay with any restaurant.”

This was Lin Yi’s first time inviting Guanxin to a dinner, naturally, he couldn’t just bring her to some low-end restaurant. He pondered and decided Pengzhan’s hotel was the best option. That place was quiet and on top of that, it was in his area of control so it was convenient too.

“Isn’t that too much?” Guanxin saw Lin Yi stopping at the entrance of the business hotel. She instantly felt Lin Yi’s decision was too extravagant.

Although, she was born with a silver spoon and had only luxury for her entire life, she never wasted unnecessarily- she was slightly better than the Miss. The Miss was disciplined and not spoiled but she lacked the concept of money, usually spending too much without realising it.

“This is Yaoyao’s hotel, and I have a VIP card here. It won’t be expensive,” Lin Yi explained.

“Oh…” Guanxin, of course, knew who Chu Mengyao was, she also knew that Mengyao was the girl Lin Yi was trying to protect in the bank. Honestly speaking, Guanxin was envious of her, even if she wasn’t Lin Yi’s girlfriend, she could at least stay by Lin Yi’s side every day, unlike her.

The duo went into a room and casually picked a few dishes, “Xinxin, do you have something to discuss with me, something important?” Lin Yi asked.

“En, something is bothering me… but I can’t make a decision and need your opinion…” Guanxin was flustered, her face turning red, “I hope this won’t cause you any trouble?”

“No, it won’t. We are friends, friends help each other and discuss all sorts of things together. It’s totally normal, just tell me what’s bothering you. Let me see if I’m able to help!” Lin Yi agreed.

“It’s like this… Grandpa wants me to learn some medical skills from his friend… but this is not something I want to pursue. I feel like I’m not suitable to become a doctor- if you were to ask me to grab the exact amount of medicine and boil them at the perfect temperature, I’d be confident at it and even grandpa praised me for having the potential to become a doctor, but….. after so many years passing, I still prefer boiling medicine and being a nurse instead of….” Guanxin started talking about her situation, “I don’t want to disappoint grandpa but at the same time, I know I’m not too suitable…”

“Ugh… so you like preparing the medicine…. if that’s the case, do you think you would like studying the properties of the medicine, pharmacology?” Lin Yi paused for a moment and thought about this good idea.

“Of course I would love it!” Guanxin nodded, “I’ve always loved helping my grandpa mix the herbs…. I always feel a familiarity when I assist my grandfather in handling medicine. Perhaps I was born with this talent especially since I was born into this family.”

“Then what if I suggest this idea to your grandpa and allow you to learn the properties of the medicine instead of learning to treat others. Your job will be to give people the right medicine to consume judging from their symptoms,” Lin Yi continued, “What do you think of this suggestion?”

“En?” Guanxin’s eyes sparkled when she heard Lin Yi’s suggestion! What Lin Yi suggested was not a bad idea at all! According to what Lin Yi said, she could pursue the direction she preferred and most importantly… there was a high chance that she could work in Lin Yi’s company and examine the properties of medicine? Guanxin got a little excited by the thought of it but remembered that if she were to leave to see her grandpa now, she wouldn’t be able to see Lin Yi for a long period of time, this made her a little reluctant and upset.

“Should I tell grandpa when I return home later?” Guanxin had already fully accepted Lin Yi’s idea deep down, but it was still all up to her grandpa’s decision.

“Hehe, sure,” Lin Yi smiled, “If I was free, you could have followed me around to learn, but I don’t have the time to teach you practically….”

Guanxin was grinning like the cat that swallowed the canary when she heard Lin Yi but the grin soon turned into a disappointment when he added the last part. Her heart stopped pounding, disappointed- Lin Yi was right, when would he have the time to teach her?

“Then can I call you if I have any questions?” Guanxin tried to find hope in the midst of her disappointment. Although she would not be able to see Lin Yi every day, she could at least give Lin Yi a call once in a blue moon – this was enough for her.

“Of course, don’t hold back with me,” Lin Yi smiled, “You will be there to learn, it’s not like you’re not going to return here, are you? I’ll test your abilities and skills when we meet again, what do you think?”

“En, don’t worry. I’ll do my best!” Guanxin finally relaxed- the burden that she had been shouldering for quite a while was finally gone, she felt so much better now.

After the dinner, Lin Yi drove Guanxin back to her house. He hadn’t planned to visit Guan Xuemin at that time as it was already late in the night but Guanxin had already mentioned to her grandpa that Lin Yi was dropping her off so Guan Xuemin seized this opportunity and invited Lin Yi to come inside for a while.

Seeing no other option, Lin Yi could only accept and follow Guanxin inside.

“Lil’ Yi, it’s been a while!” Guan Xuemin was over the moon when he saw Li Yi. He always learnt a lot from the discussions he had with Lin Yi. He was like the best mentor and a helpful and faithful friend to him.

“Yeah. Grandpa Guan, I have been kind of busy recently and hadn’t had time to visit you. Truly sorry about that,” Lin Yi said apologetically.

Guan Xuemin had given him a lot of help and support when he first came to Songshan city. Lin Yi would forever remember his kindness, without Guan Xuemin, he wouldn’t have been able to open a medical company so fast.

“It’s okay, I know how busy you are,” Guan Xuemin nodded, “How are things going with Feng Xiaoxiao?”

Guan Xuemin had diagnosed Feng Xiaoxiao’s illness before but he was helpless against her situation. He also knew that Lin Yi was busy finding a way to save Feng Xiaoxiao.

“I found some hints on how to save her but am still lacking an ingredient. I will be going to search for it in a few days,” Lin Yi continued, “Initially, I thought of coming here later to bid my farewell, but since I’m here already, I may as well just inform you now.”
