My Youth Began With Him

Xie Juan smiled. “We’re good, I’m extremely satisfied with our relationship. On New Year’s Eve, he was at the New Year’s Gala, so he didn’t come back to celebrate. But, he called me to wish us a happy new year. Shuai Shuai and I saw him sing on TV, and Shuai Shuai’s really happy that Ni Yang’s his brother. He says he’s going to show off at school…”

Huo Mian could tell that Xie Juan was filled with happiness.

“That’s good. Truth be told, Ni Yang is a soft-hearted boy, but he’s really stubborn… Nevertheless, he’ll remember everything you’ve done for him,” Huo Mian added, and Xie Juan nodded.

“He’s coming back to the city tomorrow evening and coming to our place for dinner. Dr. Huo, you should come too.”

“It’s okay… I just came back from vacation and have a lot on my plate. You should enjoy your family time… Let me know if you need me.”

“Okay, you should get back to work, Dr. Huo. I’ll get out of your hair now.”

After Xie Juan left, Huo Mian felt extremely gratified…

Ni Yang’s reconciliation with his mother was something worth celebrating.

At least… Ni Yang would never be alone again…

Now, he had family, with whom he could celebrate his happy moments.

Suddenly, Huo Mian received a notification on her phone. Upon unlocking it, she saw it was Zhu Lingling talking on their WeChat group.

Zhu Lingling: “Happy new year, girls! What are you guys doing?”

Huo Mian: “I’m at South side, and today’s my first day back at work.”

Jiang Xiaowei: “I’m eating at my mom’s.”

Zhu Lingling: “Guess what I’m doing.”

Huo Mian: “Working out with the people’s police?”

Jiang Xiaowei: “Humping with Captain Gao.”

Zhu Lingling: “F*ck, can’t the two of you be purer? Let’s have a nice conversation, okay? Let me tell you guys, I’m in Bali soaking up the sun. Haha, jealous?”

Then, she sent them a photo of her wearing a sexy bikini and resting on a bench. She held a glass of juice in her hands.

Zhu Lingling was pretty and sexy. With the special touch of photoshop, she was comparable to the celebrities on TV.

Huo Mian: “That’s why you’ve been so quiet, you went to Indonesia?”

Jiang Xiaowei: “Why didn’t you go to the Maldives, is Bali fun?”

Zhu Lingling: “It is! This place is a popular place for celebrities to get married. Haha, my policeman finally got his annual, so I made him come with me. Our airline gave us a year-end bonus, so our round-trip plane tickets were free. Awesome, right?”

Huo Mian: “Pretty awesome.”

Jiang Xiaowei: “Not bad, I want to go traveling too! I really want to go to Barcelona. Too bad… I’m like a panda now, everyone’s trying to protect me. Even if I go to the countryside to fish, the bodyguards and maids have to follow me. It’s so annoying!”

Zhu Lingling: “Mian, do you want to come? You and Mr. Qin should come, and we can go home together in a few days.”

Huo Mian: “No thanks, I’m already back at work. If I ask for days off again, I’ll feel bad about the 8,888 yuan red pocket Director Wu gave me.”

Zhu Lingling: “That old man treats you really well.”

Jiang Xiaowei: “That’s because Mian helped him gain prestige. Those two awards are highly regarded, and she’s the first person at South Side to win them.”

Huo Mian: “Okay, stop putting me on a pedestal… You guys keep chatting, I’m going to go back to work.”

Huo Mian didn’t want to chat during work. After all, she was a doctor and she needed to act like one.

Therefore, she turned the group chat on silent and placed her phone down.

Suddenly, her phone began to ring again.

It was from a number she had never seen before…

After a few seconds of hesitation, Huo Mian picked up.

“Happy New Year, Huo Mian.”
