After Getting a Divorce, I Continued Being a Miracle Doctor

Of course, Jian Xing’er was just teasing Bai Qingchen, but she didn’t expect that he would start crying. Seeing Bai Qingchen’s teary eyes, Jian Xing’er suddenly thought of her own brother.

When her brother was young, he would follow behind her every day and ask for candy. She would often tease him and say that if he didn’t listen to her, she would sell him off, then he would start to cry pitifully.

After he died tragically, no one pestered Jian Xing’er anymore.

“If you stop crying, I’ll give you a small gift later,” Jian Xing’er said to Bai Qingchen.

When Bai Qingchen heard this, he immediately stopped crying and blinked his big eyes at Jian Xing’er. “Alright, I won’t cry anymore. You have to keep your word.”

Jian Xing’er couldn’t help but laugh when she saw how quickly his expression changed.

Shangguan Ding noticed the tenderness in her eyes, so he said with a smile, “If you like children, let’s have one when we get married in the future.”

Jian Xing’er spat out a mouthful of tea. “Are you out of your mind?” What did he mean by that? Could a child be born just like that? Besides, why would she have a child with him?

Shangguan Ding shrugged. “You’ll have to marry me sooner or later anyway.” Jian Xing’er really couldn’t stand him anymore, so she stood up and left the hall. Shangguan Ding stared at Jian Xing’er’s back as she left, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.

Jian Xing’er had just returned to the bedroom when her cell phone rang. It was a call from Hou Junlai. Jian Xing’er froze, but she still picked up the call.

“Xing’er, if you’re not busy, I have something to tell you,” Hou Junlai said in a gentle tone.

“Sorry, I’m quite busy.” Jian Xing’er refused mercilessly.

“Wait, let me ask you something.” Hou Junlai paused. “Did you send someone to kill Hou Cheng?”

Jian Xing’er was stunned. Why did Hou Junlai ask this? Did he know something?

“Let’s meet. 1 have a lot to tell you,” Hou Junlai said. “Let’s meet at Island Cafe.”

After Jian Xing’er hung up the phone, she took a deep breath. She thought that she had handled the aftermath of Hou Cheng’s death flawlessly, so she really couldn’t figure out where Hou Junlai got this news.

In order to verify it, Jian Xing’er decided to go to Island Cafe and talk to Hou Junlai personally.

Half an hour later, Jian Xing’er’s car stopped at the entrance of Island Cafe. As soon as she pushed the door open and got out of the car, she saw Hou Junlai waiting at the door.

Hou Junlai was wearing a beige sweater and he smiled at Jian Xing’er as he stood under the sunlight.

Jian Xing’er couldn’t help but fall into a daze. She was very familiar with the sweater Hou Junlai was wearing. It was a gift she had given him on their first wedding anniversary. At that time, Mrs. Hou only gave her a thousand yuan a month for living expenses, but it cost her a total of 1,500 yuan to buy this sweater.

Hou Junlai was very happy when he received this sweater. The two of them even took a photo together and posted it on social media.

Now, five years had passed in the blink of an eye and everything had changed. After Jian Xing’er snapped back to reality, she nodded at Hou Junlai.

“Let’s go in and talk.” After Hou Junlai pushed open the door of the cafe, he let Jian Xing’er walk in first.

It was almost ten in the evening, so there were very few customers in the cafe. After the two of them found a seat by the window and sat down, Hou Junlai ordered two cups of coffee according to Jian Xing’er’s preference. He still remembered Jian Xing’er’s favorite flavor.

After the waitress left, Hou Junlai smiled and said, “We came here to celebrate the day we registered our marriage. After so many years, this place hasn’t changed at all.”

Is that so? I don’t remember,” Jian Xing’er said calmly. However, how could she not remember? She just didn’t want to talk about the past. Ever since Hou Junlai forced her to get a divorce despite their many years of marriage, the two of them had nothing to talk about.

Seeing that Jian Xing’er was ignoring him, Hou Junlai’s heart ached. “Xing’er, are you still angry with me? I know I was wrong. How could I give up on our many years of relationship so easily?” Hou Junlai choked on a sob as he said, “I don’t dare to try to win you back anymore. I just want to be by your side. I’m relieved to see that you’re doing well.”

This was the first time Jian Xing’er had seen such a fragile side to Hou Junlai. In the past, when the two of them were together, he was very domineering. Now that the two of them were divorced, he actually shed tears of regret.

Jian Xing’er wasn’t touched. She only felt that it was ironic. “I don’t need anyone’s company. Don’t mention the past again. I don’t even remember it,” Jian Xing’er said with a smile.

Hou Junlai stared at her in a daze and couldn’t say a word. “If you called me here just to say this, then I won’t accompany you any longer, Mr. Hou.” Jian Xing’er stood up to leave.

“Can’t we even be friends?” Hou Junlai asked..
