The weather has turned cold because of strong winds, Shuai's clinic also has been flooding with patients, he has been busy for the whole morning, just as he was about to sit down and have a glass of water, a voice popped up behind him.

'Doctor Jiang.'

Shuai immediately placed his glass down, then responded habitually, 'Hey, what's wrong...'

After looking at the person behind him, he couldn't help but grit his teeth. Shuai scanned the person's entire outfit, he was wearing a neatly ironed suit, his collar is ironed to perfection, his hair is well trimmed...then Shuai when to shake his hand and smiled mockingly, 'Welcome Manager Wu, welcome!'

Wu laughed out light-heartedly, then he pinched Shuai's cheeks jokingly.

'What brings you here?' Shuai asked.

Wu pointed outside of the clinic and said, 'There's a construction at Street 48, they're the traffic lights into LED lights, our company is in charge of it. My workers are here to measure the fittings, I'm here to take a look at their progress, then I dropped by to say hello.'

Shuai poked Wu's abdomen laughingly, 'You're really something, you can work for the government.'

Wu said proudly, 'This is the fruit of our whole company's labor.'

Shuai snickered, 'Isn't it Mr. Chi's effort?'

'Who said that?' Wu denied, 'He doesn't work for the traffic department now, he has been shifted to the finance department.'

'What's the point to stay in the traffic department? The finance department has more outlook. He must've waited until now just for this project of yours. He wanted to plan out your company's future, then he went to the finance department to get a position so that he can provide your company the best policy. He must be planning, isn't he?'

Wu scoffed, 'You think too highly of me, he can switch to any department anytime, why would he think so much? If he really were to plan it wouldn't be for my sake, it must've been for the bunch of snakes, I reckon he has finally got the hang of it, without a proper job or position, he can't make a happy place for his beloved sons.'

Shuai grinned, 'Someone's jealous.'

Wu scowled, 'What? I will be so happy if he went to see his sons every day, it's best if he sleeps there, it would irritate me less.'

'Oh, yeah,' Shuai suddenly thought of something, 'Did you confess to him yet?'

Now he mentioned it, sorrow crept onto Wu's face.

'I was about to say it, but then he gave me a very strong drug, I lost it before I could say it. After that, I thought I would just let it be, I'll just destroy everything about me and Yue Yue's past. Chi and I have very different social circles, our friends are very different from one another, no one will ever say anything in front of him.'

'What about Yue Yue?' Shuai reminded, 'What if she wants to take revenge on you?'

Wu shook his head, 'No, she must've thought that Chi knew about it long ago, he wanted to help me get back to her. Just like how I thought Chi knew about us in the past.'

Shuai thought that made sense too, 'If you can conceal it, then there's no point in taking the risk,  just till your relationship have strengthened, who knows when he's going to talk about this topic, you can tell him then.'

'I think so too.'

Another patient visited the clinic, Shuai went to attend the patient while Wu sat aside sipping his water, he studied Shuai closely and he realized that Shuai has lost some weight. He wore the white rode during summer and it has a rather slimming effect, but now it's winter, Shuai wore more clothes but his robe looks too big on him.
