Chapter 75 - 75 I'm Very Picky About Making Friends

75: I’m Very Picky About Making Friends 75: I’m Very Picky About Making Friends Editor: Dragon Boat Translation Nan Yan nodded.

“What did they say?” Tao Qingming asked, “The Cheng family wants you to visit next Saturday.

Can you make it?” “Well, I happen to have a day off, so I can go.” Tao Qingming smiled and said, “I’ll reply to the Cheng family and let them know you’re available that day.” “Okay.” # After a week of hospital treatment, Lin Zhiyan’s condition had stabilized.

Her complexion had become much healthier, devoid of the grayish haze, and instead radiated a sense of clarity and determination.

When Nan Yan entered, she found Lin Zhiyan laughing and joking with Mrs.

Lin.

From their conversation, it seemed that her mindset had improved significantly.

“Yanyan, you’re here!” Lin Zhiyan’s eyes lit up as she saw Nan Yan, and she stood up and ran towards her.

Wanting to hug her but hesitating, she remained in place, excitedly looking at Nan Yan.

“Yanyan, I feel a sense of relaxation I’ve never experienced before.

It’s as if the illness that had been with me all this time has finally left me!” “You look much better.” Nan Yan curved her lips, opened her arms, and gave her a gentle hug.

Encouragingly, she said, “Keep up with the treatment, and you’ll get better and better.” “Mm-hmm!” Overjoyed to receive Nan Yan’s embrace, Lin Zhiyan exclaimed, “Yanyan, I believe in you!” Seeing Lin Zhiyan running towards her, Mrs.

Lin stood up nervously.

Only when she saw that her daughter was okay did she breathe a sigh of relief.

She hurriedly walked over, expressing her gratitude to the girl in front of her.

“Miss Nan, Zhiyan’s condition has really improved a lot.

For so many years, this is the first time I’ve seen her smile like this.

Thank you so much!” Nan Yan smiled lightly.

“Mrs.

Lin, you’re too kind.

It’s that brought me and her together.” Mrs.

Lin nodded repeatedly.

“Having the chance to meet Miss Nan is Zhiyan’s good fortune!” Although Nan Yan hadn’t asked for any reward, Mr.

and Mrs.

Lin had already discussed it.

They were willing to transfer ten percent of the Lin Group’s shares to her if she could help their daughter recover!

In their eyes, their daughter’s health was far more important than these shares.

Moreover, rather than letting those indifferent and heartless relatives benefit from their hard-earned business, they would rather give it to Nan Yan.

Perhaps, this was an opportunity for their daughter to hold onto the company…

But that could be discussed later.

The most important thing now was to help their daughter regain her health…

# Lin Zhiyan was discharged from the hospital, and Mrs.

Lin enthusiastically invited Nan Yan to their home for a meal.

Lin Zhiyan, affectionately holding Nan Yan’s hand, coquettishly asked her to come along.

Nan Yan couldn’t refuse their hospitality and agreed.

Sitting in the Lin family’s car, Lin Zhiyan looked at her with a somewhat melancholic mood.

“Yanyan, do you know?

I’ve been alone all my life.

No one would play with me because of my health.

I couldn’t run, I couldn’t jump, and even being too emotionally excited was out of the question.

For twenty days each month, I had to rest in bed…” “Those parents would even tell their children not to play with me, fearing that I would die while playing with them and implicate their children.” “I longed for the outside world and hoped to have a good friend to share joys and sorrows with.” “But because of my health, I could only treat ‘friendship’ as a luxury.” “Yanyan, would you be my first friend?” Lin Zhiyan asked cautiously, her eyes shimmering with anticipation.

“I’m picky about making friends,” Nan Yan’s tone remained calm.

“At the very least, there has to be one quality that I find admirable.” “You don’t possess that quality yet.” Nan Yan’s words gradually dimmed the light in Lin Zhiyan’s eyes.

She opened her mouth and weakly said, “I’m sorry for being presumptuous…” “But not having that quality now doesn’t mean you won’t have it in the future.

Since we have such a fate and our names both contain ‘yan,’ I’ll give you an observation period.” “If you can impress me during this observation period, then I will be your friend.” Nan Yan didn’t have many friends, and she could count on one hand the ones she truly approved of.

She would save Lin Zhiyan for two reasons: first, because her master had taught her that being a physician meant helping others and saving lives; second, she didn’t want a young life to wither away just like that.

Perhaps because she had experienced death once herself, the reincarnated Nan Yan had a greater reverence for life.

Lin Zhiyan’s eyes, which had been initially downtrodden due to the impact of Nan Yan’s words, suddenly brightened again.

She firmly said, “I’ll do my best!” Nan Yan recalled how Qin Lu and Shen Junqing would always pat her head, so she subconsciously imitated them.

She placed her hand on Lin Zhiyan’s head and gently rubbed it.

“Good.” The fluffy feeling in her palm didn’t seem extraordinary, did it?

Nan Yan withdrew her hand, pondering with some doubts in her heart.

However, because of this action, Lin Zhiyan inexplicably felt delighted.

—So, is she someone who speaks harshly but has a soft heart?

Upon hearing this conversation, Mrs.

Lin let out a long sigh of relief.

At the same time, her evaluation of Nan Yan soared even higher.

In this way, Nan Yan’s encouraging words were helping Zhiyan get better and better!

Mrs.

Lin was deeply moved, discreetly wiping away the tears in her eyes.

She secretly decided to make her daughter friends with Nan Yan.

This was an opportunity!

# The atmosphere in the Lin household was warm.

The small villa was decorated with a cozy touch, even though Mr.

Lin was a successful businessman, he didn’t indulge in extravagance or waste.

There were no overly grand decorations; instead, everything was perfectly balanced.

This was enough to show how much the owners valued their family.

After entering the house, Mrs.

Lin took off her coat and smiled.

“Miss Nan, feel free to make yourself at home.

No need to be formal.

I’ll go to the kitchen and prepare some home-cooked dishes.

We’ll have dinner in a while.” “Okay.” Nan Yan nodded with a smile and was then led by Lin Zhiyan to her room.

Lin Zhiyan’s room was simple, without any extravagant decorations, but it felt very warm.

On the photo wall, there was a family photo of the three of them, and on the bedside table was a solo photo of her when she was seven or eight years old.

There were also photos of them hanging in other places.

Nan Yan quietly observed and understood that these were records.

For many years, the doctors had told Mr.

and Mrs.

Lin that their daughter wouldn’t live past eighteen years old.

So they left behind many photos, preserving the traces of their daughter.

Lin Zhiyan smiled and said, “Yanyan, you’re the first person, besides my parents, to enter my room!” “Is that so?” Nan Yan curved her lips.

“Then it’s my honor.” “Yanyan, let me show you my collection from all these years~” Lin Zhiyan, in a mysterious manner, hugged a large album and brought it over.

Nan Yan thought that it would contain more photos of their family.

But upon opening it, she discovered various drawings of people, landscapes, and buildings.

There were sketches, watercolors, and oil paintings, covering a wide range of styles.

“You drew these?” “Mm-hmm!” Lin Zhiyan nodded.

“Because of my health, I can only have this kind of quiet hobby.

I spend most of my time drawing.” Nan Yan carefully looked through the album while listening to Lin Zhiyan talk about the thoughts and emotions behind each drawing.

Suddenly, from downstairs, came a shrill and elderly voice: “Where is everyone?

Have they all died?”
