A lunch soon passed amidst the undercurrents among the four people.
"Come to my study with me."
Before leaving the dining table, Leng Chuanjin waited for Xia Sanghuan to finish her meal and then greeted her.
After hearing Leng Chuanjin's words, Xia Sanghuan instinctively stiffened all over.
But she didn't stay like that for long. She put down her bowl and followed Leng Chuanjin to his study.
For some reason, Xia Anying always felt something strange about the way the two of them got along.
"Wanqing, where did your brother and Xia Sanghuan go the other day? They were both out of the house for such a long time."
Xia Anying tentatively asked Leng Wanqing, but Leng Wanqing didn't notice anything amiss.
"I don't know. My brother usually doesn't tell me his itinerary."
"Hey, don't tell me you have a crush on my brother? Let me tell you, get rid of all your wild ideas."
Leng Wanqing looked at Xia Anying disdainfully.
Although she and Xia Anying could barely get along now, it didn't mean Xia Anying could have any improper thoughts.
After all, Xia Sanghuan was at least a Miss Fu, while this Xia Anying was a proper country girl.
"O-of course not."
Xia Anying answered awkwardly looking at Leng Wanqing's expression.
But in her heart, she had already cursed Leng Wanqing thousands of times.
She's really blind. She can't even tell who's having an affair with her brother.
After Xia Sanghuan followed Leng Chuanjin to his study step by step, she stood somewhat nervously in the middle of the study.
"These are all of Jingzhan's medical records. I asked a professor to make a copy. You can study them slowly."
"My mother will come home this afternoon to meet you."
"My mother and Aunt Sang are bosom friends. You don't have to worry that my mother won't like you."
Leng Chuanjin handed the thick stack of materials in his hand to Xia Sanghuan and then instructed her.
Looking at the beautiful girl in the middle of the study with her head down, Leng Chuanjin couldn't help feeling a bit irritated.
"Look up and look at me."
Xia Sanghuan was a bit surprised at such a request, but she still suppressed the ripples in her heart and looked up at Leng Chuanjin.
"Only a little over half of the Black Bone Spiritual Treasure is left now. If I give it to you, can you succeed?"
Although Xia Sanghuan had been suppressing her emotions, there was still expectation in her heart when she looked at Leng Chuanjin.
But after hearing Leng Chuanjin's question, it was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on her heart, and she instantly sobered up.
"The legend of the Black Bone Spiritual Treasure originated from Qingshan Slope, and I grew up there."
"You can also trust me in terms of medicine. So rest assured, I will definitely make the most of the Black Bone Spiritual Treasure."
Xia Sanghuan looked at Leng Chuanjin with a determined look in her eyes.
"I'll reluctantly trust you this once."
"Get yourself a bit tidier when my mother comes this afternoon. Don't let her think I've been treating you badly."
After saying that, Leng Chuanjin started to deal with the company documents in the study and basically issued an order to evict the guest.
How could Xia Sanghuan not understand his meaning?
She left Leng Chuanjin's study with the materials in her hand.
After feeling Xia Sanghuan leave silently, Leng Chuanjin didn't turn the page of the document in his hand for a long time.
His feelings for Xia Sanghuan were becoming more and more complicated, and he just didn't understand where these feelings came from.
He kept brainwashing himself that it was because of Fu Lingshi and the Fu family.
Soon, Leng Chuanjin suppressed the strange emotions in his heart and began to immerse himself in work.
Xia Sanghuan took the thick medical records back to her bedroom.
On the way, she was constantly examining her own heart and realized that she did have different feelings for Leng Chuanjin.
Looking at Leng Chuanjin's reaction, she kept denying that she was being self - indulgent.
But when her eyes fell on the medical records in her hand, Xia Sanghuan became full of energy again.
Leng Jingzhan's illness was called Treeman Syndrome, and so far, there had been no cured cases in the world.
Xia Sanghuan carefully studied Jingzhan's case and believed that with the existence of the Black Bone Spiritual Treasure, a miracle could definitely be created.
Because she was so obsessed with the medical records, when Wang Fu knocked on the door outside Xia Sanghuan's bedroom, he saw a somewhat disheveled Xia Sanghuan when the door opened.
"Oh, Miss Xia, how did you become like this?"
"Madam is here to see you. How can you meet her like this!"
Before Xia Sanghuan could react, Wang Fu showed abnormal excitement.
Wang Fu was afraid that Mrs. Leng would not have a good first impression of Xia Sanghuan.
"Aunt is here? My current appearance is really not suitable to meet Aunt."
"Okay, Uncle Wang, please ask Aunt to wait for me a while. I'll tidy up and come down right away."
After all, she was going to meet her mother's bosom friend, so Xia Sanghuan was a bit excited and nervous.
She went back to her bedroom, casually changed into a clean and tidy set of clothes, simply tidied herself up, and then opened the door and walked downstairs.
"Are you Xia Sanghuan? Huanhuan?"
After Xia Sanghuan went downstairs, she found a young, beautiful and elegant woman sitting in the living room.
When the woman saw Xia Sanghuan's figure, she quickly stood up and asked, with tears welling up in her eyes.
"Hello, Aunt. I'm Xia Sanghuan. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I was a bit disheveled in the bedroom just now, so I simply tidied up."
Mrs. Leng saw Xia Sanghuan wearing a simple white T - shirt and jeans, clean, fresh and a bit neat. She vaguely saw the appearance of Sang Sang more than twenty years ago.
"Huanhuan, it's really you. You look exactly like your mother when she was young!"
Mrs. Leng stepped forward and hugged Xia Sanghuan tightly, laughing and crying.
"Aunt, don't be so excited. You'll get wrinkles if you cry."
"Okay, okay. Aunt will listen to Huanhuan."
Mrs. Leng reluctantly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes under Xia Sanghuan's comfort and then gently held Xia Sanghuan's hand.
"Huanhuan, how have you been in the countryside all these years? You've really suffered."
"Your father didn't do this for any other reason. There were just too many troubles at home, so he had you stay at my place temporarily."
"He definitely doesn't love you any less. Remember, you're a Miss Fu and will also be a Miss Leng."
As Mrs. Leng spoke, as if thinking of the happy times she had spent with Sang Sang over the years, her eyes welled up with tears again.
Just as the atmosphere between the two became very sad and touching, Leng Wanqing's voice suddenly exploded in their ears.
"Mom! You didn't even come back specially to see me when I came back from abroad! Why are you willing to come and see this country girl now?"
"Don't touch my mom! She's my mom, not yours. You're so dirty. Don't soil her!"
Leng Wanqing first complained and pouted at her mother, and then glared at Xia Sanghuan.
"Wanqing! How can you talk like that?"
"You've really become more and more bad - tempered after staying abroad for so many years!"
When it came to the role of mother, Xia Sanghuan's expression gradually became cold.
After seeing her change, Mrs. Leng quickly scolded Leng Wanqing loudly.
