Duan Linbai opened his thermos flask and took a sip of hot tea. âItâs fine. Call her whenever you want, as long as she doesnât feel uncomfortable.â
Everyone here was familiar with each other. It was naturally fine for a stranger to come. But if they were an introvert, they would probably feel uncomfortable.
âI donât think so. You know this person too. Itâs Dr. Xu.â Tang Jingci smiled.
When her eyes had a problem a few months ago, Xu Jiamu had come to take a look at them, and the two of them had kept in touch ever since.
Duan Linbai almost choked on a wolfberry. Why is she asking her to come?
Jing Hanchuan narrowed his eyes and immediately understood who the Dr. Xu Tang Jingci mentioned was. Wasnât she the girl who had knocked out a certain scoundrel in front of him last time?
They had only interacted once, but Jing Hanchuan could tell that this girl wasnât a vain person. She was studious and motivated, and she wasnât even willing to interact much with their group.
Otherwise, with her relationship with Duan Linbai, she would be able to do whatever she wanted in the capital.
âYou can call her over. Itâll be more lively with more people.â Jing Hanchuan had already settled the matter before Duan Linbai could speak.
Jiang Ershao approached Duan Linbai with a bewildered expression. âBig Brother, who is the Dr. Xu theyâre talking about? Do you know her?â
âThe one at the police station last time.â
âThe one who smashed someoneâs head?â Jiang Ershao knew Xu Jiamu, but he wasnât familiar with her. He didnât expect such a valiant person to be a doctor.
Duan Linbai frowned. âThose bastards deserved it.â
âThose people indeed deserved it. But that girl has a good face and a good figure.â Jiang Ershao narrowed his eyes, seemingly recalling Xu Jiamuâs appearance.
âFigure?â Duan Linbai had really never observed these things carefully.
âCurvy front and back...â
Xu Jiamu was beautiful. Otherwise, she wouldnât have caused those things to happen.
Before Jiang Ershao could finish speaking, Duan Linbai kicked him. âCanât you be more serious? Where are you f*cking looking?â
â...â Jiang Ershao was stunned.
You asked me about her figure, so I told you the truth. Why did you kick me?
How f*cking aggrieving.
âBig Bro, tell me. Didnât he ask me about her figure just now...â
âYou deserved it,â Jiang Duanyan said bluntly.
Duan Linbai was famous for being a playboy, but he wasnât frivolous. Everyone in the circle knew that he had very few females around him. When he heard them mention the police station incident, he immediately thought of the girl who could make Duan Linbai fight for her.
Even though they werenât in a relationship now, who knew in the future...
He had described her figure so lecherously. It would be strange if he didnât get kicked.
When Duan Linbai heard that Xu Jiamu was coming, he kept feeling a little restless. He coughed twice and reached out to straighten his clothes. He dressed nicely and looked handsome today.

Xu Jiamu was stopped at the entrance of Ninth Mansion.
She had just observed an operation in the hospital today for seven hours. She washed her face briefly and went out. She originally didnât want to come, but she got along well with Tang Jingci. Tang Jingci had invited her to the design exhibition before, but she had declined. It was too unreasonable to reject others time and time again.
But this place had a membership system. Coupled with Xu Jiamuâs outfit, she was really ordinary and an unfamiliar face, so they naturally wouldnât let her in.
Xu Jiamu hesitated before calling Tang Jingci.
âDr. Xu seems to be blocked outside. Iâll go get her.â Tang Jingci was about to get up when Duan Linbai got up.
âHow useless. She could have just said my name.â As he spoke, he put down his thermos flask and walked out. âThis is my territory. Iâll go get her.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jing Hanchuan narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Duan Linbai arrived at the door. Xu Jiamu was standing in the cold wind, staring at her toes with her head lowered in a daze, her hair scattered by the wind.
She noticed someone walking over and looked up to see Duan Linbai in a white sweater. Perhaps because it was winter, his hair was a little long and covered his eyes slightly.
He looked clean, fair, slender, and beautiful.
âWhat are you waiting for? Come in with me quickly. Donât you feel cold?â
Xu Jiamu smiled and shook her head. âItâs alright.â
The security guards at the door looked at each other. Is she Young Master Duanâs friend?
A girl?
He even came to pick her up personally?
âYoung Master Duan.â The manager happened to be nearby. Seeing him go out, he also went out to greet him.
âRemember this person. Donât stop her next time. What if the young lady catches a cold on such a cold day?!â
The manager was dumbfounded. In the past, in the middle of winter, there had been a lot of girls with bare arms and bare legs chasing him to bars, but he had never seen him afraid of them freezing.
