There are no important projects in the capital, and Qing Li feels like he is getting tired after being idle for a while. However, after Xue Yuncheng came to the capital, he has become more active.

In the next two weeks, he will attend three academic seminars and four academic symposiums.

Xue Yuncheng invited her, and Qing Li, who had nothing to do, immediately agreed.

She hasn't participated in many seminars and discussions of this kind.

"It doesn't have to be too formal. We can adopt a more casual format. Doctors and researchers are also human beings. They can't remain serious all the time." Xue Yuncheng said with a smile.

Qing Li put down the teacup, not embarrassed at all, and laughed, "I haven't participated in many events before, and I was afraid that I would be embarrassed. Fortunately, I asked in advance."

If it was a party or something like that, she wouldn't worry about it at all because she didn't care.

Different from academic seminars.

“It still smells like tea.”

It is fragrant when you first taste it, leaving a long aftertaste.

Xue Yuncheng smiled and said, "Drinking tea and chatting are the beautiful things in life."

He pushed a rectangular box towards Qing Li, "A gift for you."

Qing Li was stunned for a moment, and recalled that it was not a festival, and today was not her birthday, so why did she suddenly send her a gift?

After opening the box, Qing Li's eyes widened.

Ivory openwork grape squirrel brush!

But this one is very new, so it may not be the original one.

Qing Li looked up at Xue Yuncheng in confusion, "What is this?"

Xue Yuncheng said: "The original brush disappeared a long time ago. I don't know who bought it. This is a squirrel brush made based on the original brush."

Although they are imitations, they are all made of genuine materials and are worth about 150,000 to 300,000 yuan.

As for the original pen, the auction price is three million.

Qing Li pushed the box back and said, "This is too valuable. I won't accept it without merit."

Xue Yuncheng's smile faded slightly, and he looked at Qing Li, "I thought that with our relationship, giving gifts was no longer important."

Qing Li hurriedly said, "I don't mean to be distant, it's just that it's too expensive."

Xue Yuncheng showed a bit of disappointment, "Is it because it's not the original one and it's not perfect enough?"

Qing Li waved his hands repeatedly, "No, no, I don't have an obsession with the original pen, what I mean is..."

Xue Yuncheng interrupted her, "I can't write or draw, but I saw this pen being auctioned overseas, and you were the first person I thought of, so I bought it. If you don't want it, there's no point in me keeping it."

Seeing that he was serious, Qing Li felt that it would be inappropriate to reject the answer, but it would also be inappropriate to accept it.

"Or I'll pay for it."

After Qing Li finished speaking, he wanted to slap himself in the face and said something in a panic. Even if he really intended to pay, he would not say it out loud.

As expected, Xue Yuncheng's face darkened. He looked at Qing Li steadily and said word by word, "It turns out that I just wishfully thought that we had a good relationship."

After saying that, he stood up and said, "Goodbye."

Watching Xue Yuncheng leave, Qing Li was so annoyed that she didn't even have the face to chase after him.

How could she be so crazy as to say such a thing? Not to mention Xue Yuncheng, even ordinary friends would be angry if they heard it.

She sat in the tea room for a long time before coming out. This inappropriate words caused her to have a lot of negative emotions, and she fell into a situation where she felt like she could do nothing.

Fortunately, Qing Li is not the Qing Li of the past. She is very strong now. Since she said something wrong, she must find a way to explain it clearly.

Having made up his mind, Qing Li carefully prepared a return gift and planned to apologize to him at tomorrow's academic symposium.

It was different from what Qing Li had imagined. The academic symposium gave a feeling of elegant scholars exchanging ideas of calligraphy and painting. Some Chinese food and drinks were placed around for everyone to help themselves.

There were many small tables in the venue. What surprised Qing Li was that some of the tables had signs listing various difficult and complicated diseases.

If you are interested in any area, you can go and discuss it on your own.

Qing Li likes this semi-free mode of discussion, which can greatly improve everyone's enthusiasm.

If you sit there and listen to a lecture, it is easy to fall asleep unless the lecture is particularly exciting.

Qing Li strolled around, not rushing to any table, but looking for Xue Yuncheng among the crowd.

Those who come to the academic seminars are well-known people in the industry, experts, professors, and scientific researchers, and you can hear professional terms everywhere you go.

This environment made Qing Li very comfortable, so she simply found an empty table and sat down to wait.

When He Jiangyu arrived at the venue, he saw Jiang Qingli sitting there at a glance. Just as he was about to walk over, he saw her suddenly stand up, quicken her pace and walk in one direction.

The end point of that direction is Xue Yuncheng!

He Jiangyu paused and fixed his eyes on Jiang Qingli.

Then she took out a beautifully wrapped gift and handed it to Xue Yuncheng with a hopeful smile on her face, and she tugged at his sleeve like a little bird!

What is she doing!

All the blood in He Jiangyu's body rushed back to his head.

Assistant Cui behind him saw the redness in his eyes and knew that something bad was going to happen, so he reached out and grabbed his wrist.

This is different from a banquet held by a wealthy family. There are many gossips and unsightly things in the wealthy family, but no matter how many there are, they will be washed away with time.

This circle is not good. If He Jiangyu and Miss Jiang come into conflict here, there will really be no future!

"Boss, there must be a reason. Please calm down." Assistant Cui reminded in a low voice.

After being blocked by him, He Jiangyu began to regain his sanity.

He knew he had no position, but the more he had no position, the more he wanted to control it.

As long as there was a man standing next to Jiang Qingli, he felt extremely annoyed, let alone Xue Yuncheng, a bastard with a clear purpose.

On the other hand, Qing Li sincerely apologized and gave a return gift. It was her fault and she was very proactive.

Xue Yuncheng sighed helplessly, took her gift, and then tapped her forehead lightly with his fingers.

"I'll forgive you this time, but there won't be a next time. You must accept my gifts in the future."

Qing Li smiled bitterly, "I know."

From now on, whenever Professor Xue sends her home, she will go back.

We interact with each other, without owing anyone a favor or being impolite.

After all, they are not biological siblings, so Qing Li couldn't calmly accept Professor Xue's expensive gift.

"Let me see what you gave me." Xue Yuncheng opened the box and found a watch inside.

The watch is worth about 180,000 yuan, which is more than the value of that pen.

Although he knew that she was giving it back in disguise, Xue Yuncheng was still very happy.

Because he had expressed his love for this watch in front of Qing Li before, he didn't expect that she remembered it and now gave it to her as a gift.

Glancing to the side, he saw He Jiangyu standing there with a sullen expression, staring at them without blinking.

He quickly withdrew his indifferent glance and Xue Yuncheng pretended not to see him.

"I'll go take a look at the table over there." Qing Li said.

Xue Yuncheng inadvertently moved to the side, blocking her line of sight. "Why are you in such a hurry? The table and the doctor won't run away. I'll take you to see a few people later."

Qing Li's eyes lit up when she heard this. She knew Xue Yuncheng's reputation in the industry, and the people he knew must be very capable and experienced.

It was half an hour later when I returned to the venue, and I could no longer see He Jiangyu.

"Let's have dinner together tonight."

When the discussion was about to end, Xue Yuncheng said to Qing Li.

Seeing Qing Li's hesitation, Xue Yuncheng said briskly, "Don't force me to beg you."

Qing Li chuckled and agreed.

The symposium was for exchanging experiences. After half a day, Qing Li got to know quite a few people. Just as they were talking about having a meal, a chief physician in his early thirties came over and wanted to go with them.

The attending physician had a pretty appearance. I wouldn’t say she was particularly pretty, but she was very attractive.

Xue Yuncheng didn't say anything, but gave the female doctor an unfriendly look. Unfortunately, she didn't realize it, and Qing Li didn't realize it either.

The dinner for two people turned into a dinner for three people, and Xue Yuncheng felt a little depressed.

Why do some people use their eyes to vent their anger?

In a villa in Beijing, He Jiangyu sat on the sofa with his hands on the back of the sofa, his head leaning back, and his two long legs supported on the ground, making him look even more slender.

He looked gloomy, with an indescribable emotion in his chest, and his mind involuntarily recalled the past scenes.

When they first got their marriage certificate, Jiang Qingli slept on the sofa in his suite. Later, he changed it to a more comfortable sofa. Later, he seemed a little dissatisfied and removed the sofa and let her sleep on his bed.

What was Qing Li's mood at that time?

He hadn't thought about it, and he didn't care at the time.

Every time I think about it now, I feel heartbroken.

When did they have sex? It was like he was addicted to it.

Time and time again, he had never had such a great desire.

He Jiangyu's eyelashes trembled slightly, and it seemed that Qing Li's body temperature was still in his arms.

The tenderness was gone, and all I could think about was her standing next to another man.

My heart aches.

It was a suffocating pain.

When they just got divorced, he was certain that Qing Li was still his and would eventually return to him.

When he saw that scene today, he panicked.

He never thought about what he would do if Jiang Qingli didn't come back.

Don't even want to think about it.

The phone rang, He Jiangyu picked it up immediately, and saw the three words "Zhou Ruoxuan" displayed on the screen. He became extremely irritated for no reason, hung up directly, and blocked her.

If it weren't for Zhou Ruoxuan, he and Qing Li would still be together.

Qing Li would cook for him, show him her paintings, and ask her about what she encountered as "Yu Yu".

That was a secret between the two of them.

Thinking of this, he felt a sense of superiority in his heart. No matter what Xue Yuncheng did, he was the only one who knew about this.

Zhou Ruoxuan……

Has his attitude been correct all these years?

In this incident with Li Wenshu, Zhou Ruoxuan's true nature seemed to be exposed all at once, but he couldn't help but think that Zhou Ruoxuan was only like this to her stepmother, and her dedication and sacrifice for him was an indelible fact.

Even though she has become a burden now, He Jiangyu has never thought of closing his eyes and completely erasing everything about her.

For the first time, his heart wavered.

There is a difference between tolerance and indulgence. Perhaps he is responsible for Zhou Ruoxuan becoming what she is now.

Did he do something wrong?

With Zhou Ruoxuan standing in the middle, things are likely to develop in a direction he doesn't want to see.

Coming out of the bathroom barefoot, He Jiangyu saw an envelope on the table.
