Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
[Lin-jie, wake up! He’s lying to you!]
[Best Actor Yan still used his top-tier acting skills when coaxing his wife. If I didn’t watch all 12 seasons of the Abyss, I would’ve believed him.]
[Lin-jie, just spoil him! I don’t believe that she can’t tell that Yan Ruo’s lying to
[If a couple wants to be together alone, just say it. Everyone can understand.] The comments section was instantly filled with joy.
Zheng You gritted her teeth in hatred when she saw that Yan Ruo followed Bai Lin like an attendant the moment she left.
Bai Lin would not be able to have her way for long!
Yan Ruo truly only wanted a chance for the two of them to be alone together.
On one hand, he already knew that Zheng You had planted people in the show, and he was worried that Bai Lin would get into an accident if she went to the fifth floor alone. On the other hand, he also wanted to take the opportunity to take their relationship to the next level.
“Xiao Lin, have you never been afraid of the dark?” Yan Ruo asked softly.
He knew Bai Lin must have had some sort of experience, but he did not want
to investigate the past in too much detail. He wanted Bai Lin to open up to him and tell him everything.
Bai Lin did not know why Yan Ruo would ask such a question, so she thought he was just making a small talk.
“No, I used to be very afraid of the dark. I was especially afraid when I was young. I just wanted to hide in Granny’s embrace once it’s nighttime.” At the mention of Granny, Bai Lin’s tone unconsciously carried a smile.
“I can tell that you like Granny a lot and have a good relationship with her.” As Yan Ruo went along Bai Lin’s words, the two of them had already reached the fifth floor.
Bai Lin was flipping through the medical records and doc.u.ments on the office table in the infirmary while she talked to Yan Ruo casually.
“Granny’s a very gentle and kind person. I grew up by Granny’s side. To me, she’s the most important person. She’s also the person who loves me the most in this world and the person I love the most.”
Bai Lin hid a lot of information. Granny had suffered a lot for her. The Bai Family did not give Granny any money, nor did they give her any money. Later, Bai Lin found out that Bai Xiao actually had to give Granny 40,000 Yuan every year for childcare. Although it was not a lot of money, it could still greatly improve their lives.
However, this sum of money was only successfully sent to Granny in the first year. From the second year onward, it was secretly kept by Zhao Yuan.
That was a story for the future.
“Yan Ruo, come and take a look at this medical record.”
Bai Lin called Yan Ruo over to take a look at the medical records. She had wanted to study the contents by herself, but she asked him to take a look when she thought of his purpose for following her.
“The patient’s name isn’t written on it?” Yan Ruo asked.
“Besides, it’s not quite right that the school used such a formal medical record book.” Bai Lin was not sure. She did not actually go to school like the others.
Yan Ruo noticed this and continued. “Mm… I guess so. The school might use other registration methods.”
“What’s the medicine recorded here for?” Yan Ruo suddenly pointed at a medicine name on the medical record and asked.
“Mifepristone. It’s an abortion drug. There was a picture of a pregnant woman in the puzzle pictures earlier. Do you remember?” Bai Lin asked.
“I do. She’s the princ.i.p.al’s daughter. At her age, she should still be studying. How could she be pregnant?” Yan Ruo played the role of Bai Lin’s a.s.sistant seriously and took the initiative to ask.
Bai Lin seemed to enjoy the feeling of answering questions from smart students. “Theres only one possibility, and it’s that she did it on her own free will. If a girl of this age was seduced with ill intentions, it’s likely that she has a problematic sense of love. She had a photo with the doctor, so we can a.s.sume that the doctor seduced the princ.i.p.al’s daughter for some purpose.”
After a pause, Bai Lin picked up the medical record and said, “And it’s very likely that he’s after money.”
Yan Ruo loved how Bai Lin looked with a calm and clear mind. To him, she was like a top-cla.s.s detective who could find hidden clues from the smallest of evidence and restore the truth of the entire incident.
Bai Lin looked at the medicine shelf at the side and guessed that there should probably be a box of mifepristone on it.
She took a quick glance and saw that most of the drugs on the shelves were common. Only the top shelf seemed to have a small paper box laying there without its front visible.
Bai Lin stood on her tiptoes and was still lacking in height to reach for it.
Yan Ruo’s hand reached out from Bai Lin’s left side. He was slightly taller than her, so he was just able to reach for the box.
From the back, Bai Lin was in Yan Ruo’s embrace. she could even smell the faint laundry detergent fragrance on him..
