Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1778 The Sun Shines Like Me 7

Nie Xiguang nodded with a forced smile and greeted Ma Nianyuan: "Nianyuan, I didn't expect Manager Lin to be your patient."

Ma Nianyuan responded with a smile: "Yes, I am better at recuperation, which is exactly what Mr. Lin needs."

Lin Yusen knew about the ill-fated relationship between Nie Xiguang and Ma Nianyuan, and he never expected that the two would run into each other. He was also very embarrassed, afraid that Ma Nianyuan would misunderstand that this was a deliberate arrangement by him, so he quickly said to Nie Xiguang, "Manager Nie, I have put Shuangyuan's information in the study. Why don't you go and take a look over there?"

Nie Xiguang was eager to save face, so he quickly accepted: "Okay, Manager Lin, thank you, Manager Lin."

Lin Yusen replied politely, "You're welcome. It would be best if I could help Manager Nie."

Turning to Ma Nianyuan, Lin Yusen quickly explained, "I'm going to start treatment now, and I probably won't be able to go back to work at Shengyuan Group afterward. After all, we've put a lot of effort into Shuangyuan, so we don't want to waste it."

Ma Nianyuan nodded to indicate that she understood and knew that Lin Yusen had those kinds of feelings for her. However, she didn't want to be in a relationship right now, so she simply pretended not to know and just said, "It seems that Mr. Lin has a lot of trust in my medical skills and is already preparing to return to the hospital."

Lin Yusen was disappointed at not getting the response he wanted, but he felt it was okay. The doctor-patient relationship was indeed not good right now, and there would be plenty of time and opportunities to spend more time together after he returned to the hospital.

Ma Nianyuan wanted to give Lin Yusen acupuncture first. While waiting for the needles to be removed, Lin Yusen couldn't help but take the initiative to start a conversation: "I also looked up some information about acupuncture. Are silver and gold still the best materials for acupuncture needles these days?"

Ma Nianyuan certainly didn't doubt Lin Yusen's learning ability, and she certainly wouldn't casually brush off his questions, but would try her best to answer them: "Currently, the needles used in acupuncture are generally made of alloy materials, which is due to hygiene requirements. As for me personally, I prefer to use silver or gold with a purity that reaches food grade, because I can accurately grasp the 'qi' that cannot be seen in the human body, and through my experiments, these two materials can better guide that 'qi'."

Lin Yusen understood. "So, Dr. Ma, your thesis is related to that kind of 'qi'?"

Ma Nianyuan nodded: "Although it sounds quite mysterious, I really saw it. The difficulty now is how to use the appropriate equipment to capture and observe that energy."

Lin Yusen's mind raced, and he asked jokingly, "So, those so-called internal strengths in martial arts novels, or the true qi that Taoists talk about, aren't they real?"

Ma Nianyuan smiled and said, "What if it's true? After all, I can see that kind of aura that others can't see."

Lin Yusen knew Ma Nianyuan was joking, but he still offered his opinion: "The unknown does not mean it is unscientific. The world is so big, and there are so many unknown areas. If we use unscientific terms or even so-called theology to describe everything, how can science and thought progress?"

Lin Yusen and Ma Nianyuan were chatting and laughing, talking about medical topics. Meanwhile, Nie Xiguang, who was reading documents in the study, was initially able to immerse himself in the conversation, but there were always gaps in his concentration where he would inevitably drift off.

To be honest, Nie Xiguang initially harbored resentment towards Qian Fangping and Ma Nianyuan, the mother and daughter who had taken her place as her mother. After all, her family had been broken up because of them, and she had even lost her father to some extent. So it was inevitable that she would have some opinions about Qian Fangping and Ma Nianyuan.

But as she grew older and her horizons broadened, she realized that her father was the real culprit behind her family's breakdown, even the mastermind behind it all. Qian Fangping and Ma Nianyuan were merely the catalyst.

Others might direct their anger at the trigger, but she is Jiang Yun's daughter, Nie Xiguang. She knows that the person she should hate is the culprit, not the insignificant trigger.

Normally she wouldn't feel awkward when she met Ma Nianyuan, but recently she's been a bit insecure because of her first love, Zhuang Xu, so she almost avoided Ma Nianyuan when she saw her.

However, she keenly sensed that Lin Yusen treated Ma Nianyuan differently. Although she didn't know what Ma Nianyuan thought of Lin Yusen, in her opinion, the two were a perfect match in terms of both appearance and intellect.

Thinking about it this way, she couldn't help but think of herself and Zhuang Xu. She could sense that Zhuang Xu was not indifferent to her, but looking back on everything, she always felt that there was always something missing between her and Zhuang Xu, or to put it more sentimentally, there was just a little bit of fate.

After Lin Yusen's first treatment, Ma Nianyuan applied ointment to his body after the acupuncture and left him a medicine pack to soak in before bed. Then she packed her things and left.

Lin Yusen originally wanted to find an excuse to treat her to a meal and create more opportunities to spend time together, but after hearing that Ma Nianyuan had received a phone call and seemed to be busy with something, he had to give up the idea. Ma Nianyuan had driven herself over, so he didn't even have a chance to see her off.

After Ma Nianyuan left, Nie Xiguang couldn't help but gossip: "Manager Lin seems to treat Nianyuan a little differently—"

Lin Yusen could certainly sense that there was no tension between Ma Nianyuan and Nie Xiguang, but he felt that Ma Nianyuan and Nie Xiguang could not be friends, so he asked directly, "Manager Nie has time to care about my personal relationship, presumably because you have a very thorough understanding of Shuangyuan Company?"

Just as Nie Xiguang was begging for mercy, he heard Lin Yusen's deathly voice: "Then why don't you give me a summary of the prices of Shuangyuan's products and materials over the years?"

Nie Xiguang agreed with a wry smile, feeling that he was truly unlucky and hating himself for being so talkative.

But since things had come to this point, Nie Xiguang simply stated his thoughts: "Based on my limited understanding of Nian Yuan, she seems to be a person who is rather afraid of trouble. I don't mean that she is the kind of person who is afraid of troubling others or being troubled by others, and wishes she had no interaction with the outside world. Rather, I mean that if she feels that something will require her to spend more time and energy to solve, she will either avoid it or directly solve the problem that will cause it."

This was something Lin Yusen hadn't expected. He didn't doubt Nie Xiguang's words, after all, Nie Xiguang's character was what it was, and he had gotten to know him quite well over the past few days, so he just found Ma Nianyuan's personality very interesting.

Nie Xiguang was certainly not stupid. Under Lin Yusen's careful guidance, she made rapid progress. Even when Lin Yusen's treatment was only halfway through, she was already able to handle things on her own. Lin Yusen then completely let go of the affairs of Shuangyuan Company, formally resigned from Shengyuan Group, and focused on receiving treatment, ready to return to the hospital at any time.
