In the office, Tang Yiyi was having a good time.
“When did that heartless Xu Hehe come back? Does she have a son? I heard that the middle-aged wealthy businessman she followed back then was extremely charming. Where does she live? Forget it, you must help me find her.”
Originally, he had come to seek an explanation for No. 9. After learning the truth from Du Jue however, he had immediately changed his focus.
Each time Tang Yiyi asked a question, Qi Che's handsome face turned colder. His eyes were dark, and his responses were clipped.
“A brother's wife can’t be bullied. Back then, I was worried about you, so I held back and didn't dare to make a move. Now, I have complete confidence that I can snatch her back from that middle-aged wealthy businessman and fight for your honor.”
The fountain pen in Qi Che's hand almost snapped in two. His lips curled into a teasing smile. Very good. He’d already sent two away, so he didn't mind sending one more away.
“Pah!” He Feifan kicked open the door and entered. Tang Yiyi shouted proudly, “Yo! What brings our great doctor He here? Why does that f *cking white-robed angel have such a devil-like expression?”
Tang Yiyi's mouth wasn't cheap, Qi Che thought. If he wasn’t careful, he could choke to death.
He Feifan turned a blind eye to Tang Yiyi's provocation. He walked straight to Che’s desk and angrily scolded him. “Qi Che, you disappoint me too much. You don't deserve Mengyao.”
“Hey! I say, great doctor He, did our Ah Che dig up your ancestral grave or steal your wife? Why are you so angry? Oh! It must be because you covet Ah Che's current girlfriend, so you randomly bite people,” Tang Yiyi quipped. His motto was, “I'm just a cheap mouth. I'll take the salt for myself.”.
Qi Che shook his head indifferently, his expression calm. “It's just a hospital, just for fun.”
He Feifan was so angry that he almost died. The place he worked so hard for was just for fun in his eyes?
“Xu Hehe came to work in our hospital. But you already knew that, right?”
Hearing this, his ink-black eyes suddenly blossomed with a brilliant light. Qi Che revealed his first smile in two days.
Tang Yiyi smacked his thigh and laughed wildly in satisfaction. “Haha... I'm going to make a move.”
Qi Che scowled at him once more, before picking up the vibrating phone in his hand.
“President, Miss Xu has gone to the Sunset Lake villa again.” Du Jue couldn't come in, so he’d called as soon as he received the news.
The slender fingers holding the phone froze in mid-air. Qi Che narrowed his eyes, and his entire body emitted a cold, harsh aura that kept others a thousand miles away.
Tang Yiyi and He Feifan looked at each other nervously. The situation wasn't good, so it was better to leave first.
Xu Hehe had left after completing the entry procedures at the hospital. She would officially go to work tomorrow, so she’d wanted to deal with her mother's matters as soon as possible for the rest of the day.
She was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to wait any longer if this dragged on.
She rushed to the Sunset Lake villa. Once again, it was the housekeeper who opened the door. She acted like a hostess, causing Xu Hehe to turn her head in disgust. The pain in her chest became even worse.
If she could, she would never set foot in this place again.
In the villa's hall stood a middle-aged man dressed in a well-ironed suit, with eyes that were as sharp as lightning. He exuded the dignified and domineering aura of someone who had been in a position of power for a long time.
Fu Junxing was the richest man in the city. He was a real estate tycoon. Even though he was already over fifty years old, due to the proper maintenance, he was still handsome and upright as when he was young. His charm hadn’t decreased with the years.
Although the years had etched frost into his face, it also added to the charm of a mature man.
Fu Junxing’s many deeds were legendary. The most mysterious thing about him however, was that he was never married. No one knew who the mother of his only daughter, Fu Mengyao, was. The media had searched for gossip for a long time, but in the end they had given up.
In short, a man who could do anything with a flip of his hand was a man that no one could afford to offend.
Xu Hehe wanted to hide far away, but in the end she had sadly found that she was only struggling in his palm. The pain only grew stronger.
