Chapter 325 - If You Do Not Want To Be More Awkward, Get On The Car
Jian Han was driving a red Audi. Its price was around 40 thousand dollars. It was a mid-range car, one that she could afford.
She drove out of the car park, and as she was about to cruise onto the main streets, a sound rang out, and the car broke down.
Would she be that unlucky?
Jian Han got out of the car, and she popped the hood to have a look. She did not know how to fix it.
She could not help but feel a little frustrated.
At this moment, she heard the sound of a car horn. Jian Han turned her gaze sideways to have a look. There was a silver Porsche driving over slowly.
This was this year’s model. Just the base price alone was above five million dollars. There were very few people in T City who could drive something like that; it wasn’t a car that just anyone would look good in. This kind of elegant and classy silver needed a person of a certain demeanour to pull it off well.
Jian Han froze upon hearing this question. She lifted her gaze to look at the rear view mirror in front of her, and she coincidentally met the man’s gaze who was looking in her direction.
There was not much emotion in his dark eyes, and it was a simple stare.
Jian Han looked sideways outside the window. She laughed and said, “Marriage will be something that is left up to nature. We…are already considering it.”
Li Beibei had a bright and cheery character. Jian Han heard her talk a lot. She did not listen to it’s exact content, and she only lifted the corners of her lips as she replied casually.
Jian Han looked at her own reflection in the glass window of the car, as a doctor. She knew how to take care of herself, but this was still unable to stop the traces of time. She was already 30 years old this year.
If she did not marry after she was 30 years old, it would be considered to be marrying late, and in the future, if she got pregnant, it would be considered to be a high-risk pregnancy.
In the future, would she be all alone — lonely until her death?
The corners of her lips curled up in a self mocking smile.
At this moment, the sound of Li Beibei laughing came into her ears. She was chatting with Zhou Dayuan. The man was not too passionate, but both his actions and speech did not make others feel side-lined. He’s had such good mannerisms since his youth.
Li Beibei asked, “Dayuan, do you still plan to advance your career in England? This is too far away from home. Actually, the prospects in China now are pretty good too.”
The man was silent for a few seconds, and he said, “I don’t contact my family too frequently, so regarding things that would happen in the future, let’s talk about it another time.”
Jian Han looked at the neat hairstyle on the back of his head. Over these 6 years, have the relations between him and his family not improved?
In the past, when they were dating, because of her that he did not seem to go home anymore.
At that time, they were still studying in Oxford. He had not asked for allowance from home. His results were excellent, and when he was in the first year of university, he was interning under the professor personally. In the future, he went into the Royal Hospital of England. His pay was very high, but his expenses were pretty low. Other than food, clothes, accommodation and transportation, he would spend the rest of the money on her.
He had spent a lot of time in England. Actually, he was an extremely romantic person on the inside. Every time there was an anniversary or a holiday, he would buy a present for her. Their presents were different from other couples. She remembered that there was once that he got two tickets to a famous medical professor’s lecture from his friend, and they excitedly and happily went together to attend.
At that time, their idea of romance was very simple. They on the road to analysing medicine, and she always had him by her side.
The last time she saw him, she heard her teacher Bill talk about his status over these six years. He was already the head professor of clinical medicine. In this time, he has accelerated significantly in his career. Not only was he a double PhD holder, he was also the director of two research institutes.
Teacher Bill said that he had shares in many large hospitals, and he also had his own medical team to engage in the latest medical research. That man, Zhou Dayuan, represented a natural genius in the medical profession.
Actually, there was no difference between England and China in his own opinion. It would be the same for him to advance in his career.
Just like this car. He was never a man who loved luxury goods. He was driving a car worth 5 million, and that meant that his pay had to be at least 5 million or above.
Over these 6 years without her, he was living his life so well.
Jian Han broke out into a plain smile. Yes, as long as he was living well, she felt that it was worth it.
As she was pondering, her gaze crashed into the man’s in the rear view mirror; he was looking at her.
Jian Han froze with the corners of her lips in an arc and quickly channeled her gaze elsewhere.
At this moment, they had arrived at Li Beibei’s place, and she bid farewell to the both of them before she got out of the car.
The Porsche started to move again, and now, there were only 2 people in the car.
Jian Han tried hard to sit up straight, and even her breathing became shallow.
After driving for a while, Zhou Dayuan asked, “You are living with Uncle and Aunty right now?”
Jian Han’s two small hands kneaded into fists in front of her body momentarily, and she lowered her gaze and shook her head lightly. “No.”
Zhou Dayuan looked at her through the rear view mirror. He noticed that her two small hands were firmly tugging her own dress not knowing what to do, and he softened his tone as he asked, “What is wrong?”
She did not dare to interact alone with him. She was afraid of hearing his warm tone that he was using right now. The man had a good education, and even his ex-girlfriend that he had broken up with, he could treat her like a friend and care for her, but she was unable to do the same.
She could not control herself as her eyes became red. She looked outside the window and lifted her gaze. “My parents…have all left.”
Zhou Dayuan’s pure dark eyes contracted violently, and he was both taken aback. “What happened?”
“It was also nothing much. It was just… They were taking the high speed rail, and there was a part that went off the tracks, and it dropped from the cliff. My parents…”
Zhou Dayuan looked at the woman who was seated in the back. His voice got even more gentle as he said, “I am sorry.”
“It’s nothing.” Jian Han took a breath through her red nose as she said, “Nobody can avoid an accident. It was fate. I have already …accepted it.”
She accepted the fact that she turned into an orphan overnight.
The both of them did not speak again. After 10 minutes, the car stopped.
They had arrived at the estate that she was living in.
Jian Han stretched out her hand to open the car door. She curled up the corners of her lips as she smiled. “Doctor Zhou, I have to thank you for today. Goodbye.”
Zhou Dayuan looked over from the rear view mirror. Her face did not have any trace of weakness anymore. He nodded his head slightly as he did not lose his politeness as he said, “Goodbye.”
Jian Han took her bag as she left the car.
Both her feet landed on the ground, and before she could stand up, she was embarrassed. She wore a pair of high heeled shoes to attend the banquet,. She was very unlucky; the heel of her high heeled shoes was stuck into the gap of the drain cover.
She tried to forcefully pull it out, but it was of no use.
