After leaving the Pearl on the Water, Xu Hehe rested for two whole days before going out again. When she did, her chest throbbed with pain, but a brilliant smile blossomed on her lips.
The autumn air was refreshing, and the sunlight outside was just right. Even the darkest corner of her heart could feel a trace of warmth.
Stepping through the door of the Affiliated University Hospital, Xu Hehe looked at the busy crowd that came and went, and the smile on her face did not diminish. Even after leaving for five years, she had finally returned to the place where she had wanted to work the most when she was still a student.
Before Hao Lianfei left, she had told her that senior He also worked here. To be honest, she had always resisted seeing He Feifan in her heart. Perhaps it was because He Feifan had always opposed her being with Ah Che back then.
His objections had true, and she now felt a little embarrassed to face him.
In the director's office on the seventeenth floor, the white-haired President Cheng was laughing. His expression hadn't changed since the morning, and the handsome man in a white coat opposite him frowned.
“The hospital is about to be bought by Madman Qi, and you're still so happy?” He Feifan finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
President Cheng smiled with narrowed eyes and spoke with indifference. “So be it!” After saying that, he asked seriously again, “I heard that Qi Che has gone crazy? Do you want him to come to the hospital for treatment? After all, the two of you grew up together. You have to care about him more than another doctor.”
“Pffft!” He Feifan spat his mouthful of coffee across the room. He put down his cup, unsure whether to laugh or cry, and feigned seriousness. "I may need patients, but I don't dare to treat the Qi family casually. I have to report this.” Wasn't it crazy to spend such a huge amount of money to purchase the hospital?
“Then report it to the higher-ups!”
There was a crisp knock on the door, and simultaneously the administrative secretary's voice came from the intercom. “President, Miss Xu has arrived.”
President Cheng couldn't care less about He Feifan. Hurriedly, he went to pull the door open.
The door swung open, revealing Xu Hehe. She wore a simple flaxen-colored dress and a beige windbreaker. Hehe stood in front of the door elegantly, and when she saw President Cheng, she bowed deeply. “Hello, President Cheng. I'm sorry to trouble you.”
She raised his head, and her gaze passed through President Cheng's and met He Feifan's eyes. The two of them were stunned at the same time.
“Hehe, you're finally back.” President Cheng did not feel the frozen atmosphere at all. He enthusiastically pulled Xu Hehe to the sofa and sat her down.
“You must be familiar with He Feifan; you're both from the university's medical school. He's now the director of our hospital's cardiothoracic surgery department, and the youngest associate professor in the history of the university. You should familiarize yourself with him first. What do you think?”
The more President Cheng spoke, the more awkward she felt. Logically speaking, with Xu Hehe's status, this should not be the arrangement. It was just that there was no suitable position for her right now, so this was all he could do for her.
“Of course, no problem. Thank you, President Cheng.” Xu Hehe smiled at President Cheng, before standing up and walking to He Feifan, politely extending her hand. “I'll have to trouble senior He to teach me more in the future.”
He Feifan's face was filled with disdain, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes. “I don't have the qualifications to teach you, Beauty Xu.” With that, he turned around and left like a gust of wind.
Xu Hehe was startled. She withdrew his hand that had been left hanging in the air, and shook her head bitterly. Senior He's disgust towards her was still as direct as ever.
President Cheng's face was filled with embarrassment. “Hehe! I’m sorry about Feifan’s temper. Don't mind him! He's not good at talking, but he's actually a very nice person.”
Very nice, thought Hehe, but only to Ah Che, right?
“President, since I'm only at the initial stage of familiarizing myself with my studies, I hope you can keep it a secret for the time being. A large portion of my achievements in the United States are actually thanks to my mentor.”
President Cheng chuckled and hurriedly nodded his head. The more he looked at Xu Hehe, the more satisfied he was. Why hadn't he noticed such a formidable medical genius back then? He could have benefited greatly.
He Feifan came out of the president's office. When he thought of Qi Che's abnormal acquisition, he almost went crazy with anger. He simply took off his white coat and rushed straight to the Zifeng building.
Outside the CEO's office on the 60th floor, Du Jue was holding a folder, waiting mountain-like in the middle of the corridor.
“Where's Madman Qi?” He Feifan rushed over like a gust of wind.
Du Jue was instantly dumbfounded. What was going on? One after another, Tang Yiyi had gone in, and now He Feifan followed closely behind!
“He's discussing something with young master Tang.”
He Feifan raised his eyebrows in disdain. “Other than picking up girls, when did Tang Yiyi, that stallion, learn how to talk about things?”
Speaking of playing with young master Tang, he did have a way about him...
