The moment Qin Yu received the call from the other end of the line, Qin HuZhao's loud voice pricked his ear. "Boss!!!! Where are you right now? The company needed you...!"
Though they were cousins Qin HuZao respected the hierarchy and recognized Qin Yu's position on the top of the pyramid. Since Qin Yu was far more excellent and skilled on the job. Being the top among the crop of candidates was being selected by their elders but the final decision would revert back to the currently sitting CEO. Those elder's responsibility was to hone the potential younger generation of the Qin bloodline and observed their attributes and talents in their later years. It's like survival of the fittest and the one who will win was the strongest. When it's the right time, the current head will provide a very difficult task that these potential candidates should brainstorm and solved. Qin Yu's overbearing talent and potential won all over.
Qin HuZao respected this talent of his. Qin HuZao compared to him was nothing more. He was even eliminated on their first round of the game.
"I will be gone for a moment. I have something important to deal with." Qin Yu's monotone voice.
Qin HuZao, "What! Boss, you need to settle these investment proposals today. The accounting already sent their financial findings and recommendation. They only need your approval."
Qin Yu's headache was starting to resurface again, "Alright, send the report to my email."
Qin HuZao was ecstatic knowing Qin Yu will do the job. This settlement was not really urgent as per classified but seeing the boss had time to fool somewhere off, he swear he'll not doing any overtime today!
"I'll just send you my final decision, immediately notify the concern parties after this. I'm not going to drop off to the company today. Qin Tao and I will just go home straight."
Hahaha! Knowing that the boss will not go home, Qin HuZao could fool tonight. He could also go home early!
Was this his lucky day?
"Ah, boss where are you right now anyway?" Qin HuZao was in a jolly mood that he thought, where ever the boss was, he just pray that he would gonna stay there longer. Or even forever. He'll just keep track of the status of their business. He's skilled anyway, he's sure he can do that.
Qin Yu answered casually, "At the mental Hospital."
"Be safe there bo--what hospital?" Qin HuZao's eyes almost popped out! He's at the hospital? What would he gonna do at the hospital?
Now, he wanted to take back what he had said earlier.
"XS PRIVATE HOSPITAL"
"What are you doing there?!" Could it be? Could it be that...
"You don't need to overthink things. I just visited my friend." Qin Yu knew the idiotic flow of thoughts of this man. So before he exaggerates things, he needed to put a stop to it.
Does the boss have a mental friend? Why doesn't he know that?
"I'll hang up now. Be sure to do things properly there while I'm gone. Don't fool around."
After Qin Yu put the phone down, he immediately pulled his laptop and started his nonstop typing of keys.
Su Ci Yi and Qin Tao at this moment were fully immersed in their world that they forgot the extra character sitting at the end of the room.
***
Huan Clan's Mansion
"Madam, let us take care of the grandmaster. You've been caring for him nonstop since you came back from the hospital. Please take a rest for a while." The pitiful voice of the maidservant pleading to Xiang Mo Mo.
Xiang Mo Mo flashed a friendly smile. "It's okay. I want to personally care for my own grandfather" The maidservant's eyes glint with admiration towards her. It's a big rumor circulating from within the mansion lately. That the young Miss was kind and caring.
She even became more approachable and humble the moment she went out of the hospital and personally volunteered to care for the old man.
The mister was so lucky so have this rare and beauty care for him so much.
If the young lady wanted to do it, then there's nothing they can do about it.
Closing the door, the maidservant went out.
Xiang Mo Mo and the poor man was left behind.
Huan's grandfather was sitting in a wheelchair while his back leaning on the back. If only he could take, he would gonna say to that two servants not to leave him. 'cause the moment they left, strange things are happening and he was getting weaker and weaker.
Now, that the seemed warm and tender atmosphere earlier was changed to a dreadful one in an instant. Xiang Mo Mo's eyes turned black as she looked at the weak old man. A sinister smile rose from her pale lips and the black mist she was concealing started to emit.
Little by little, the old man's vital energy started to flow out.
