Chapter 1388: You'll Know the Answer Once You Try

But Liu Xin'ai could not remember anything.

The other person's enthusiasm only left her feeling bewildered.

Moreover, she couldn't just offer no response at all, so she had to pretend to be normal and interact with the man: "That... how are you recovering?"

The man patted his chest with his fist and said proudly, "Not a single problem! I could even run a marathon right now!"

"You should still pace yourself."

"Don't you worry, I treasure this regained health more than anyone else!"

The man realized it was work hours, yet Liu Xin'ai was wearing her own clothes...

He asked in confusion, "Are you not working today?"

"I don't work here anymore."

"Ah?!"

The man couldn't help but show a look of regret, then added, "When I talked with other patients before, we all agreed that you are a rare and excellent doctor—gentle with patients and extremely professional. That you aren't working here anymore is truly a loss for the patients!"

The man's sentiment was heartfelt.

Liu Xin'ai could also feel his recognition of her.

Although that recognition belonged to the Liu Xin'ai of the past, she was still very happy.

The corners of her mouth also curled up gently, beyond her control.

Then, someone behind the middle-aged man called his name.

The man answered, and it seemed he had to leave.

But he still had a question, so he asked, "May I ask where Dr. Liu is working now?"

"I am at the Laboratory, doing pharmaceutical research."

The man immediately gave a thumbs up and praised, "As expected, even after changing jobs, you are still amazing! Oh my, I really must go now. Goodbye, Dr. Liu!"

The man turned and hurried away.

Liu Xin'ai stood there smiling, and some scenes from her work flowed gently into her brain like a spring.

Unlike previous memory fragments, this time, Liu Xin'ai did not resist them at all.

On the contrary, she felt very happy.

Her mood improved a lot, and the things she had been struggling with just moments ago no longer bothered her.

She took a deep breath and decided to go home.

Liu Xin'ai, on this side, had already found relief.

But on the other side, Qin Yiyan could not remain calm.

He was very obedient and had not taken the initiative to look for Liu Xin'ai.

But he had been keeping an eye on every move Liu Xin'ai made.

Naturally, he also knew that she had attended a seminar.

And he knew that at the meeting... someone had foolishly sought trouble with her!

That reporter was truly unlucky this time!

Once Qin Yiyan identified the target, he used his influence to directly blacklist the reporter, making it impossible for him to continue in the industry!

Afterward, he dug up the reporter's past work negligence, forcing him to pay out all his savings.

Because he became destitute, the reporter's girlfriend also left him.

In the end, because of one moment of trying to be clever, the reporter offended someone he shouldn't have and completely ruined his bright future.

When Qin Yiyan dealt with this reporter, he had no intention of hiding his identity.

Such a high-profile move led to mixed reviews from the outside world regarding his actions.

However, as a close friend, he still approved of Qin Yiyan's approach.

If anyone dared to bully Liu Xin'ai, they must be bullied back twofold!

Jiang Baobao and Cai Xiaotang even went to the Liu Family specifically to tell Liu Xin'ai the whole story.

As the protagonist of the incident, this was the first time Liu Xin'ai had heard of these things.

Yet she showed no signs of excitement; instead, she listened to her friend's description with a calm expression.

Her calmness made Cai Xiaotang feel it was hard to understand.

Cai Xiaotang even said, "Your expression is too calm! When I found out about this, I couldn't help but shout that it was satisfying!"

Liu Xin'ai smiled and stated her true thoughts: "Just an insignificant minor character; whether he exists or not is unimportant."

"Then what is important?"

"The truth."

The simple three words carried a strong sense of conviction, making people involuntarily accept what Liu Xin'ai said.

Cai Xiaotang didn't think too much about what lay behind those three words.

She was just staring at Liu Xin'ai.

She didn't miss every subtle change in her facial expression either.

Hmm... I have to say, the current Liu Xin'ai was steady and calm.

Very much like the Liu Xin'ai that Cai Xiaotang knew before.

So, could it be...

Cai Xiaotang pursed her lips, a hypothesis emerging in her heart.

And this hypothesis left her unsure whether to be happy or disappointed.

Amidst these complex emotions, she could only lower her head and drink her tea quietly.

Jiang Baobao, meanwhile, was chatting with Liu Xin'ai as usual.

They even exchanged notes on what new, stunning delicacies they had discovered recently.

When the conversation turned to desserts, Liu Xin'ai remembered that the servants in the kitchen were just then making some.

Liu Xin'ai calculated the time and figured it was about time for them to come out of the oven, so she went to the kitchen to take a look.

Cai Xiaotang kept glancing at Liu Xin'ai.

Seeing her walk away, she immediately leaned in close to Jiang Baobao and asked, "Did you notice anything off?"

Jiang Baobao was holding a teacup, drinking tea.

Hearing Cai Xiaotang's words, she couldn't help but feel puzzled: "What's off about it?"

"It's just... I feel like Xin'ai has become a bit different, becoming very much like the Xin'ai from before. I'm even starting to suspect... whether she might have already recovered her memory!"

Actually...

Jiang Baobao had her own suspicions as well.

But they couldn't very well ask her to her face, so they could only observe.

And, while they were at it, let their imaginations run wild.

But Cai Xiaotang didn't like letting her imagination run wild; seeing that Jiang Baobao couldn't give her an answer, she whispered, "Actually, we can just test it and find out."

"How do we test it?"

Cai Xiaotang revealed a hint of a smile, then leaned over to Jiang Baobao's ear and said something.

After listening, Jiang Baobao gave her an evaluation: "You're still the quick-witted one!"

Cai Xiaotang gladly accepted this compliment!

When Liu Xin'ai returned carrying the desserts, Cai Xiaotang smiled and invited her: "You're busy with work every day and your nerves are stretched tight; why don't we go see an art exhibition?"

"An art exhibition?"

Jiang Baobao also chimed in from the side to persuade her: "Yeah, appreciating art has so many benefits!"

At this moment, these two women looked exactly like salespeople.

And they were even singing each other's praises.

Liu Xin'ai couldn't help but chuckle at the sight.

Cai Xiaotang, however, grew anxious and blurted out: "Don't just laugh, are you going or not? Are you going or not!"

This woman was actually starting to act coquettish!

Liu Xin'ai couldn't handle it and quickly begged for mercy: "Alright, alright, I'll go! Can you please talk normally!"

"I am talking quite normally."

That dainty, affected tone—normal?

Liu Xin'ai shook her head and gestured for her friends to try the desserts on the table.

The flavor of the desserts was quite good.

But neither Jiang Baobao nor Cai Xiaotang had their attention on the desserts.

When Liu Xin'ai wasn't looking, the two of them exchanged a glance that only the other could understand.

The time for the art exhibition was set for the next day.

The creator of this art exhibition was a very famous master.

And the reason Cai Xiaotang chose this particular exhibition was not because of the person's fame, but because...
