Inside Yan Rumei's VIP Room, a man in a business suit and a woman in a doctor's robe are busy writing something.
Both had their backs straight and each had set up a desk and a chair facing the patient's bed, and from time to time, they would look at each other like they're scrutinizing each other's every move.
It has already been a day since the incident happened. Yan Rumei has also already woken up after she passed out when her stitches tore.
Her parents were also able to talk to her, and since an hour ago, Assistant Li, who is the man in a business suit, has been handing her documents after documents after documents.
He had been very impressed on how she can understand most of the things on the documents, and in some cases, even asks difficult questions.
She has just finished reading this paper in her hands. The documents are all general information about the businesses of Gu Feng, and this last one is about the stocks compared to their closest competitors.
Yan Rumei reluctantly put the papers on her lap. She didn't want to. Why? Because Assistant Li will just give her another one.
She regrets being an overachiever. But she couldn't help it. It's just in her nature to do the best she can, understand and come up with a solution to a problem. You can say she's someone who would like some kind of recognition for her efforts and hard work.
Other people may not understand this, just like how she could not understand how other people have no plans in their life and just love to party, smoke, get drunk, and get laid by different men.
-Sigh-
When Assistant Li noticed Yan Rumei put down the document, he prepared to stand up and give her a new one.
But before he could even take one step, Doctor Tan finally snapped, "Tsk. Can you just let my patient rest? Can't you see she's tired? Do you even have any conscience at all, huh, old man?"
Yan Rumei took a deep breath, looked to the side, and pursed her lips when she heard Doctor Tan.
[Godd*mn! Huuuu… This doctor is really straightforward.]
She closed her eyes and reminded herself.
[Please, stop. Yan Rumei, you must get a hold of yourself. If you don't want to stay here any longer, you must prevent yourself from laughing uncontrollably again. Please…]
On the other hand, Assistant Li was dumbfounded.
"O-old man?", he struggled to ask.
"What?" Doctor Tan crumpled her brows in confusion, and then she eventually raised her right eyebrow. "Aren't you like 50?"
Assistant Li staggered, "Fi-fifty?!"
The other then wore a sour face while brushing her hand left and right, "Ah whatever your age is, I don't care… Just do your business on your desk and don't bother my patient anymore."
Assistant Li was incensed.
[What the?!]
[This woman is preposterous!]
[How dare she say that I'm already 50? Hey, I'm just 42!]
[What even made you say that I'm 50? I'm not balding, am I? I also go to a salon regularly that's why I don't have visible wrinkles like most people my age!]
[Also, how can you say that the Miss doesn't like to read more?]
[She has potential! She's like the First Young Master. She knows a lot of stuff about business and can be of help in managing the Gu Corporation!]
[Even if she's not our Miss, if I happen to find this kind of person outside, I wouldn't even hesitate to hire her as a fellow Assistant. That's how capable our Miss is!]
Assistant Li rebuked Doctor Tan in his mind. Of course, he didn't have enough courage to tell all those thoughts out in the open.
He needed to keep his cool in front of their Miss.
Also, his Master and Madam are also in the next room. If they hear him yelling and complaining at this doctor, they might change their mind and remove him as Yan Rumei's assistant.
He didn't want that.
Especially now that he found out how capable his new Miss is.
He decided to just ignore the doctor and looked in Yan Rumei's direction to confirm if she was tired or didn't want to read any more documents, but before he could do that, they heard a knock on the door.
A few seconds after, the door was opened by Assistant Xiong. He made way for the two people behind him, which were Gu Feng and Lu Anqing.
Doctor Tan stood up and bowed together with Assistant Li to the newcomers.
The two bigshots nodded back at the doctor and then proceeded to come close to Yan Rumei's bed.
"Meimei, are you feeling alright?", asked Lu Anqing.
"Mnn, I'm okay mom.", she replied and also nodded at Gu Feng.
"Good… good…" Lu Anqing then signaled Bodyguard Bo who was now standing near the entrance. He was carrying a basket, which seemed to be full of food.
Assistant Xiao also took away all the papers on Yan Rumei's lap and set up her overbed table.
Lu Anqing then turned to the female doctor and asked, "Doctor Tan, can you check if the food we brought is okay for Meimei to eat?"
"Sure, Madam.", she replied in a casual manner and proceeded to unwrap the food and set it on the table.
A few moments later, she said, "The food Madam and Sir have brought were all nutritious and are good for the patient. I do not see any food that is harmful to her wound and would halt her recovery."
"Perfect then Doctor Tan."
"Then Madam… Sir… and Miss…" She bowed and continued to say, "I'll excuse myself. Please call me whenever, I will just be outside the room."
"Thank you, Doctor Tan.", the three said altogether.
After she left the room, Assistant Li and Assistant Xiao also stood on the far side with Bodyguard Bo.
"Meimei, you have to eat lots. You heard the doctor that these are good for you.", Lu Anqing pushed some of the meals that were already set on the table and reminded her.
Yan Rumei chuckled and responded, "Yes, mom. You know I'm not that picky with food, and I know what's good for me. I'm already old enough so don't worry about me."
