I Became the Best Forensic Doctor After My Betrayal

Chapter 198 - 198 Birthday

198 Birthday

In the blink of an eye, it was Shen Yin’s birthday.

Shen Nian had been acting mysteriously of late. Shen Yin knew that her son would definitely remember her birthday, so she deliberately did not expose him.

However, Lian Jing’s acted in a completely natural manner. Even when he sent her to work in the morning, he showed no sign that he had remembered.

This made Shen Yin a little depressed. She was currently in a passionate relationship with Lian Jing. Of course, she hoped to receive a birthday present from him. She hoped that he would remember her birthday.

However, she was unwilling to mention it to him. She did not want to take the initiative to ask him for something.

She understood how big the wealth gap between the two of them was. She had no intention of taking his money. She hoped that their relationship would be on equal footing instead of Lian Jing dominating and keeping her like a pet.

Fortunately, Shen Yin had never been a person who loved luxury. The money she earned was enough to support herself and she did not need to ask Lian Jing for anything. However, today was a special day. Even if he did not prepare a gift, she wanted to know that she was remembered.

In the police station, Meng Heng was waiting at the entrance of the forensics office with Zou Sheng and Wu Zheng. When he saw her, Zou Sheng hurriedly gave Meng Heng a look.

Shen Yin looked with surprise at the three of them, who all had odd expressions.

Meng Heng blushed and took out the gift he had hidden behind his back for a long time. He said softly, “Sister, happy birthday.”

Shen Yin was stunned and blinked at him in disbelief. “How did you know?”

“Sister, have you forgotten what I do for a living?” Zou Sheng proudly took out his gift and placed it in her hand. “But don’t think that I’m investigating you. I just looked at your resume. Your date of birth is on it.”

Shen Yin shook her head helplessly and said with a smile, “Why would I blame you? Thank you, but you don’t have to prepare a gift for me. It’s the thought that counts.”

“Sister, don’t worry. It’s nothing expensive. I just thought you’d like it, so I bought it.” Meng Heng lowered his eyes and explained. His blush gradually faded.

Shen Yin looked at him seriously and decided that she owed him an explanation. “Meng Heng, I think you’re a very smart and outstanding police officer, but I…”

“Sister, there’s no need to say anything. I understand.” Meng Heng suddenly looked up at her, his eyes solemn. “I won’t interfere with your life. This is just a civil birthday greeting between colleagues.”

Shen Yin nodded. She sincerely admired Meng Heng. The boy had just joined the police force this year, but had encountered an endless stream of major cases. He had suffered without complain, always quietly working hard. He was an outstanding police officer. He really did not need to waste time on her.

Meng Heng had long known about Shen Yin and Lian Jing. Since that time in the hospital, he had already given up on pursuing Shen Yin.

He could tell that Shen Yin cared a lot about Lian Jing, and that cold man had saved Shen Yin twice without hesitation.

No one could come between them.

Wu Zheng glanced at the sad Meng Heng and held out a cup of coffee with a faint smile. “I didn’t prepare any gift, so I bought you a cup of coffee. I hope you don’t mind.”

“Thank you, Captain Wu.” Shen Yin took the coffee and thanked him gratefully.

In the forensics office, Zheng Ling and the other two had been waiting for a long time to present their gifts.

Shen Yin took them one by one and treated them to a meal to celebrate. When she got off work that night, Shen Yin looked at the table full of gift boxes and the familiar car parked downstairs. For some reason, she did not bring the gifts downstairs, but got into the car empty-handed.

Lian Jing glanced at her and sniffed at her. “Where did you go to play? There’s a strong scent on you.”

“Are you a police dog?” Shen Yin pushed his head away in amusement and asked tentatively, “Are we going home? Or… somewhere else?”

“Home, of course.” Lian Jing raised his eyebrows and asked with a wicked smile, “Where else do you want to go?”

“Nowhere.” Shen Yin pretended to be calm as she fastened her seatbelt. However, only a blind person could fail to see the disappointment in her eyes.

Lian Jing gazed earnestly at her forlorn expression. In the end, he could not bear to make her sad. He coaxed her softly, “I can only celebrate someone’s birthday when I get home.”

Shen Yin looked up in surprise. Lian Jing had already turned around to drive, but the smile on his lips betrayed his thoughts.

Shen Yin pursed her lips and chuckled. After laughing foolishly for a while, she realized that Lian Jing was stealing glances at her from the corner of his eye. She immediately turned blushed and turned away. She sat up straight. She made up her mind to look out the window and ignore him.

When they arrived at the Lian residence, Shen Nian flew over and hugged Shen Yin. He stuffed his gift into her hands. “Mom, happy birthday!”

Shen Yin smiled and patted his head. A little girl beside her cleverly went to over and hugged her. She said sweetly, “Sister, happy birthday.”

Only then did Shen Yin notice that Cheng Mu was also there. She subconsciously looked at Lian Jing, and sure enough, he frowned unhappily. He picked up the little girl by her collar and questioned, “What did you call her?”

“Sister.” The little girl blinked innocently, then smiled innocently. “Uncle, can you let go of me first?”
