Hearing this, a look of surprise flashed in Sheng Lingxi's eyes, not because the woman was Sheng Changze's wife, but because her surname was also Ruan.

"Your...surname is Ruan, where are you from?"

"I'm from the Empire, but I grew up in Country A." Ruan Xin replied, paused, and then asked, "Any questions?"

Sheng Lingxi shook her head: "It's nothing, hello, Mrs. Sheng."

Ruan Xin smiled slightly, and said again: "Your name is Lingxi, right? I remember that when I first came to medical school, the first person I asked was you, but I didn't expect that the person I was looking for was you."

"Are you here for Mr. Sheng?" Sheng Lingxi asked.

"Yes, I'm here for him, but he doesn't know that I came to you. He has encountered some difficulties recently, and I want to help him, so I came to you secretly, Lingxi, can we talk?"

Ruan Xin didn't lie. Sheng Changze had no plan to find Sheng Lingxi again. She and Sheng Changze's subordinates got the news, and she came to the medical school on her own initiative.

But Sheng Lingxi refused again: "Sorry, Mrs. Sheng, I can't solve the problems that Zhuang encountered."

"Do you know what problem Joyo encountered?"

"I don't know, but I know what I'm capable of."

Seeing that Sheng Lingxi really didn't want to deal with Zhuoyue, Ruan Xin didn't continue to mention this matter, but instead asked: "Then can I make friends with you? Can we have a cup of coffee together?"

"Sorry, I have to go back to the lab."

"Then when do you have time? I can wait for you."

Sheng Lingxi said lightly: "Madam Sheng, let's go back."

"Then can you tell me why you insisted on refusing? I don't believe it's because of your ability. You haven't even tried it. How do you know you can't do it?"

"Because I know myself well."

Sheng Lingxi obviously didn't want to tell the real reason, and her attitude was firm.

"Okay." After a pause, Ruan Xin took out a note from her bag, handed it to her, and said, "This is my contact information. If you change your mind, you can contact me at any time. I'm very happy." Looking forward to your call."

Sheng Lingxi looked down at the note, and reached out to catch it: "Okay."

Ruan Xin smiled and said, "Then I won't bother you for now, you can go get busy."

"Goodbye, Mrs. Sheng."

Ruan Xin got in the car and left, Sheng Lingxi turned and walked into the medical school, and at the same time took out her mobile phone and dialed Jiang Zhiyan's number.

"Ayan, help me find out about Sheng Changze's wife, Ruan Xin."

"Why are you checking Sheng Changze's wife?" Jiang Zhiyan asked puzzled.

"She is very similar to my adoptive mother, and their surname is Ruan."

"You don't suspect that your adoptive mother is related to Sheng Changze's wife?"

"Yes."

Sheng Lingxi's adoptive mother is not a native of Lianhua Town, she was brought back by a man in Lianhua Town, no one knows where she came from.

Jiang Zhiyan understood: "Okay, I will find out the news and tell you later."

Sheng Lingxi returned to the laboratory building.

Not long after, Jiang Zhiyan's call came back.

"How is it?" Sheng Lingxi asked quickly.

Jiang Zhiyan said: "The entire Ruan family went to country A more than 30 years ago. Didn't your adoptive mother go to Lianhua Town more than 20 years ago? This time is not right, and the Ruan family has never issued a missing person notice or anything like that. It seems that no child has been lost. Could it be that you are thinking too much?"

Sheng Lingxi murmured: "Is there really such a coincidence? The same surname and very similar looks."

"Wait, I'll check it out again, and I'll hang up first."

After hanging up the phone, Sheng Lingxi put the phone back in her pocket, and picked up a leaf on the table. Maybe she really thought too much, and there was no relationship between her adoptive mother and Ruan Xin.

Everything is just a coincidence.

The phone didn't want to ring anymore, Sheng Lingxi concentrated on researching the experiment, and the afternoon passed quickly.

Ji Man next to him stretched his waist: "I can't, I'm going to replenish energy." After finishing speaking, he turned to Sheng Lingxi and said, "Lingxi, are you going? Let's go down together."

Sheng Lingxi put down the utensil in her hand: "Go, I also need to replenish my energy."

Ji Man smiled: "Then do you want to be together?"

"Uh...not today."

"What's the matter? Could it be that you have an appointment?"

"Well, there is an appointment." Sheng Lingxi stood up: "Another day, I will invite you another day."

She promised Lu Chengjin to go home early for dinner tonight.

"Oh, okay."

The two left the laboratory together.

As soon as he arrived downstairs, Sheng Lingxi received a message on his mobile phone that it was Lu Chengjin.

【Going back? 】

Sheng Lingxi replied immediately, 【Just came out of the laboratory, let's go now. 】

Lu Chengjin: [I'm already home, waiting for you. 】

Sheng Lingxi: [Okay, I'll go back as soon as possible. 】

Lu Chengjin: [No rush, don't drive too fast. 】

Sheng Lingxi: "..."

Lu Chengjin always seemed worried about her driving.

Ji Man looked sideways at her, and smiled: "Lingxi, are you dating your boyfriend?"

Sheng Lingxi admitted lightly: "Well, yes."

"It's really a boyfriend!" Ji Man looked shocked: "Which young talent has captured your heart, can you reveal it?"

Sheng Lingxi curled her lips into a smile: "No."

Ji Man: "..."

Nearly an hour and a half later.

Sheng Lingxi returned to the Lu residence.

Lu Chengjin was sitting on the sofa reading a book, and raised his eyes to look at her when he heard the movement.

Sheng Lingxi said, "I'm back."

Lu Chengjin looked at the time on the phone and said, "Why is it so long?"

Sheng Lingxi: "Didn't you tell me to drive slower?"

Lu Chengjin put down the book in his hand, and leaned back lazily: "Since you are so obedient, then I will open it at this speed from now on."

Sheng Lingxi: "..."

In fact, she didn't mean to drive so slowly. She encountered a traffic accident on the road and was stuck in traffic for half an hour before moving.

Sheng Lingxi went to sit next to him and asked, "Why did you come back so early today? Aren't you very busy recently?"

"The matter has been dealt with, and I won't be so busy in the future. I will come back early every day...to accompany you."

Sheng Lingxi was slightly startled: "......Oh."

"Are you busy recently?" Lu Chengjin asked.

Sheng Lingxi: "Fortunately, I'm not too busy."

Lu Chengjin: "That's good."

I don't know if it's his own illusion, but Sheng Lingxi always feels that there is a hint of cunning in Lu Chengjin's eyes.

After a while, she stood up: "I'll go back upstairs first."

"En." Lu Chengjin picked up the book at hand again and flipped through it.

Sheng Lingxi went back to the upstairs room, she planned to take a shower and change clothes before going down to eat.

Lu Chengjin looked at the book in his hand, and the sudden ringtone of his mobile phone diverted his attention, only to find that Sheng Lingxi's mobile phone had fallen on the sofa.

He glanced at the strange number on the screen and recognized who it was at a glance. His deep phoenix eyes sank, and he picked up his phone to answer: "Hello."

After several seconds, Leng Ye's disgusted voice sounded from the phone: "Why are you?"
