The two people in the ward did not notice anyone outside the door. Lin Man also told Gu Chengyan about the project, "The preliminary preparations have been done. When my legs recover, I should be able to enter the experimental stage."

Gu Chengyan saw that she was beaming as she spoke, and she also pursed her lips and smiled: "Sure enough, you were born to eat this bowl of rice. You have only been here for a long time, and you are almost overshadowing me."

Lin Man was not modest either, and nodded with a smile, "Yeah, I'll fight for it."

"Okay, then I'll wait until we meet at the top." After a pause, he added, "Manman, when Shen Lian asked me about medicine before, he said he would agree to a request."

Lin Man looked up, curious, "Then what request did you make?"

Gu Chengyan hesitated for two seconds before saying, "Let him marry you."

Lin Man was stunned.

Now I couldn't lie down anymore, so I stood up and sat up. I hurriedly picked up my phone to call Shen Lian, but I couldn't hold the phone steady because I was so anxious.

As she dialed the number, she was so anxious that she cried, "How could you make such a request to him? Brother Chengyan, you are so ridiculous. Why didn't you ask me first?"

Although Lin Man likes Shen Lian and hopes that the two of them can have a good outcome, she hopes that it will happen willingly and naturally, rather than being forced by external forces and forcing one party to compromise.

She didn't want such a forced marriage.

Seeing her reaction, Gu Chengyan was frightened. His Adam's apple moved. He suppressed the urge to confess and asked instead, "Don't you ask me what his answer was?"

Lin Man paused for two seconds, then shook his head calmly.

"I do not want to know."

Whether he wants it or not, it's not a good answer for her.

If he is willing, it is just the result of Shen Lian's request from others and her taking advantage of others' danger to facilitate it.

He didn't want to. Even in this situation, Shen Lian was unwilling to agree to marry her. Wouldn't that make her even more sad?

Gu Chengyan was a little surprised and raised his eyebrows, "Why? Don't you like him?"

"Like it doesn't mean you have to do whatever it takes to get it. I do what I should do. As for the final result, it depends on Shen Lian's wishes." With that, the phone finally unlocked.

Lin Man was about to call Shen Lian, but Gu Chengyan suddenly held her hand and said in a deep voice: "No need to call him. Actually, I didn't ask him."

Lin Man blinked, and it took him a while to react, "So, you just lied to me?"

"Yeah." Gu Chengyan lowered his head with a guilty conscience. He just wanted to test Lin Man.

But was he happy with the results of the test? Not happy, because he could see that Lin Man really liked Shen Lian, so much that he couldn't bear to wrong him.

Are you not happy? No, Lin Man has his own concept of love and bottom line, and will not lose himself for a man. He is very happy.

While he was lost in thought, a fist fell on his shoulder.

Lin Man had tears in her eyes, but she was smiling, "Brother Chengyan, you scared me to death. I really thought... you made me worry for a long time."

Gu Chengyan reluctantly smiled and joked as usual: "I didn't expect that you would believe something so outrageous."

Lin Man glared at him.

She panicked just after hearing those words. She usually believed in Gu Chengyan, so how could she think about the authenticity of these words?

"Such a joke is not funny at all. Don't make it next time." Lin Man scolded him with a smile.

Gu Chengyan nodded and looked serious, "But it is true that Shen Lian will agree to a request, but I think that you are the developer of L-33, and this request should be given to you, so let him owe it first. What are you waiting for? Whenever you want him to do something, just make the request!"

Lin Man didn't know what he was thinking. He stared at the ceiling for nearly half a minute before softly saying "hmm".

"Have you... contacted Shen Lian?" After hesitating for a long time, Gu Chengyan couldn't help but ask.

This was the main reason why he came to visit Lin Man. God knows how happy he was when he heard Lin Man say that he wanted to hide his whereabouts from Shen Lian.

He even thought carefully that maybe Lin Man and Shen Lian would separate just now.

He also deliberately did not come to Belvedere immediately in order to prevent Shen Lian from following him to find Lin Man.

But later, Shen Lian came to him to ask for medicine, and he panicked when he learned that Shen Lian was also in Belvedere.

Lin Man thought for a while and said, "I didn't contact him, but he found me and stayed with me all night last night."

The more Gu Chengyan listened, the more his heart sank, but there was still a smile on his face. He was unwilling to give in: "Aren't you angry that he drove you away?"

Lin Man shook his head, "Actually, it's all a misunderstanding..."

She talked in detail about what happened that day.

Gu Chengyan didn't want to hear this at all. Seeing that there was no grudge on Lin Man's face, he wanted to interject for no reason, "Maybe he really hasn't done anything to hurt you, but he doesn't know how to measure. You don't mind now. Can you promise that you won’t mind the women around him from now on?”

Lin Man stopped and looked at Gu Chengyan strangely. He felt that Gu Chengyan was a bit more aggressive today.

After saying that, Gu Chengyan also found that he was a little excited, but he couldn't help it, "Yes, he may not have those dirty thoughts himself, but what about the women around him? Which one doesn't want to stick to him?"

Lin Man remained silent and did not speak.

"And if you look at the women around him, they are either from wealthy families or from powerful families. They must be beautiful and have a good family background. If there are two people who are willing to fight you to the end, will you fight them for anything?"

After two minutes of silence in the ward, Lin Man looked at Gu Chengyan in confusion, "So Brother Chengyan, are you trying to persuade me to give up Shen Lian now?"

Seeing her sad look, Gu Chengyan felt that he had spoken too harshly and felt guilty for her. He frowned and coaxed: "I'm not giving up, I just want you to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages."

He glanced at Lin Man's legs and sighed, "Aren't your legs the best proof?"

"But my leg is because of Su Qianxin! Even if Shen Lian hadn't been there, there would still be a dead end between me and Su Qianxin." Lin Man felt that Gu Chengyan was acting strange today and always meant what he said.

Seeing her being so stubborn, Gu Chengyan also got angry, "But if it weren't for Shen Lian, Su Qianxin wouldn't have taken action so quickly, and you wouldn't have been defenseless!"

Lin Man retreated slightly. She rarely saw Gu Chengyan get angry, and she didn't know where Gu Chengyan's anger came from.

Is it because she and Shen Lian reconciled again?

Gu Chengyan also felt that he was in a bad mood and was afraid of scaring Lin Man again. He stood up and prepared to leave, "You should rest first. I will come see you another day."

As soon as he opened the door, he suddenly heard Lin Mangeng choked and said, "I cling to Shen Lian and try my best to seduce him. Isn't it a disguised way of repaying Su Qianxin?"

"Manman, ask yourself, are you really just out for revenge?" After saying that, Gu Chengyan left.

Su Qianxin came out of the next ward. Good guy, what did she just hear?
