"Nurse, may I ask where Miss Ling Yinan is? She was just brought here after a car accident. I heard she was sent to this side."
Ling Ye and Jiang Moxi arrived at the emergency room of the hospital and immediately grabbed a passing nurse to inquire.
"She is in the last bed over there."
Seeing Ling Ye looking very worried, the nurse reassured him, "Besides a mild concussion and some scratches, she doesn't have any major issues. She needs to stay in the hospital for observation for two days, that's all."
Ling Ye visibly felt relieved and thanked the nurse several times before quickly walking towards the bed area.
Jiang Moxi was afraid that Ling Ye's mother might misunderstand their relationship, so she didn't follow and just watched from a distance.
When Ling Ye reached the bedside, he continued to check Ling Yinan's condition, holding her hand and inspecting her up and down.
"Are you really okay? Do we need to take X-rays of your whole body to see if there are any fractures?"
"It's fine, all the necessary tests have been done."
Ling Yinan lightly patted Ling Ye's back, comforting him, "Mom is fine, thank you for worrying."
Ling Yinan possessed an innate beauty that shone even without any makeup. Despite a slight abrasion on her forehead, it did nothing to diminish her captivating allure.
But what made Jiang Moxi envy was Ling Yinan's tenderness and affection.
That feeling was something she had never experienced with Yu Man.
Jiang Moxi looked at them for quite a while before finally shifting her gaze away from the emergency room.
As she reached the entrance of the emergency room, she saw two girls wearing Lolita dresses walking towards her.
The girl donning a pink and white Lolita dress had a subtle touch of makeup that accentuated her gentle appearance.
However, the other girl in a black Lolita dress had heavy and eerie makeup, and she looked worried as she stopped the girl in pink and white.
"Ling Hua, it's my birthday on Saturday, and I want to have a party at Nightless City."
The girl called Ling Hua seemed to be in a hurry to leave and replied, "If you want to have a party, go ahead."
"That's settled then. When the time comes, I'll be the host, and you'll pay the bill."
After saying this, the girl in the pink and white Lolita dress let go of Ling Hua's hand and left contentedly.
Jiang Moxi inadvertently overheard their conversation and couldn't help but marvel at the audacity of the statement, "I'll be the host, and you'll pay the bill." She couldn't help but take a closer look at Ling Hua, feeling somewhat intrigued by this audacious remark.
She saw Ling Hua walking towards Ling Yinan and Ling Ye. "Mom, where are you injured?"
This dark Lolita girl is Ling Ye's sister?
Jiang Moxi realized it a bit late, so she withdrew her gaze and quietly left.
The Nightless City had many customers, and the people who came here for entertainment were either rich or powerful, and they generally tipped the staff.
Team leader Li Qin assigned them various tasks, and Jiang Moxi and Yu Na were assigned to work on the first floor.
As soon as they arrived on the first floor, Yu Na seemed to imply something.
"The customers on the first floor have relatively normal tastes, so there may not be much room for you to show off."
In the past, Lin Xian openly declared his affection for Jiang Moxi in a private room, causing Yu Na to question her own attractiveness.
Adding to that, the fact that Lin Xian still hadn't given up on Jiang Moxi made Yu Na realize that he wouldn't dare to pursue female hosts, let alone consider someone like her, who worked as a server in Nightless City.
As a result, Yu Na had developed a deep resentment towards Jiang Moxi.
However, Jiang Moxi paid no attention to her sarcastic remarks and simply replied, "Hopefully, that's the case."
There were many people who disliked her, and Yu Na was not at the top of that list. Why should she care about someone like Yu Na?
The two of them then entered separate private rooms to serve the customers.
Most of the first-floor customers were nouveau riche without much taste, and their aesthetics were relatively simple and straightforward.
Someone like Yu Na, with her cookie-cutter sharp features and big eyes, was very popular among them.
After delivering drinks to the customers, Yu Na came out with a lot of tips, while Jiang Moxi didn't earn a single cent.
Even for the drinks that Jiang Moxi was supposed to serve, a few customers, because they found her appearance extremely ugly, asked her to step aside and let Yu Na handle it instead.
This made Yu Na regain her former confidence and feel especially triumphant in front of Jiang Moxi.
"Nothing I can do. Lu Xun once said that looking at an ugly person is a kind of cruelty."
Jiang Moxi wasn't sure if Yu Na was trying to show off her literary knowledge in front of her, but she felt compelled to remind her nevertheless.
"That's what Mr. Qian Zhongshu said."
Yu Na was taken aback, "Qian Zhongshu? Are you sure?"
Jiang Moxi replied sheepishly, "I'm sure. Mr. Qian Zhongshu also said, 'I don't hate you, but you are utterly useless!'"
"You..." Yu Na finally understood that Jiang Moxi wasn't trying to correct her mistake; Jiang Moxi was mocking her.
Just as she was about to scold Jiang Moxi, a hearty male laughter came from behind them.
"You're quite sharp with your words, without using any foul language to insult."
Jiang Moxi and Yu Na turned towards the voice and saw Fu Youhan sitting in a wheelchair, pushed by Chi Jing, approaching them along with Ye Chen.
Ye Chen's unique peach blossom eyes gazed at Jiang Moxi with a hint of admiration, revealing that the words spoken earlier had indeed come from him.
However, Jiang Moxi's gaze couldn't help but land on Fu Youhan.
This man, dressed in a black suit with a hazy blue shirt, had a captivating profile.
Even in a wheelchair, he exuded nobility and elegance, making a strong visual impact.
Jiang Moxi wanted to greet him, after all, Fu Youhan had helped her, and he had seen her true face.
She thought that there was a connection between them.
But she quickly realized that the glance Fu Youhan gave her was distant as if she were a stranger.
So, the words "uncle" that were about to come out of her mouth were forcibly suppressed.
"Why are you dawdling? Weren't you planning to discuss that collaboration?"
Apart from that one glance, Fu Youhan didn't pay any more attention to Jiang Moxi. He directed Chi Jing to push him towards the direction of the elevator.
His cold urging made Ye Chen have no choice but to keep up with his pace, complaining, "Why are you in such a rush?"
The trio soon disappeared at the elevator entrance.
Jiang Moxi quickly retracted her gaze, her lips faintly curved in a self-mocking smile, ridiculing her own wishful thinking.
In reality, everything she did for Fu Youhan was just a small favor, and as for him seeing her true face...
Given his position, he must have encountered plenty of beautiful women before.
As for why she had thought they were different, it was probably because Fu Youhan was her first man.
But Fu Youhan was unaware that she was the one from that night.
So, their relationship was not different...
As Jiang Moxi self-deprecated, Yu Na seemed to be overwhelmed by the aura of Fu Youhan and Ye Chen.
She forgot about her earlier unhappiness and even excitedly grabbed Jiang Moxi's arm.
"Moxi, just now, that was Third Master Fu and Young Master Ye. Oh my, they are the top two prominent figures in Yan city, with extraordinary charm and presence. If we can get close to either of them, we won't have to worry for the rest of our lives."
"Snap out of it. Even though it's nighttime, you still have to work."
Jiang Moxi withdrew her arm and then followed the instructions of their team leader Li Qin from the walkie-talkie to go to another private room.
However, she didn't expect to find Lin Xian and his gang of friends in that room.
The room was decorated with heart-shaped candles, and the group was cheering loudly.
Lin Xian was holding flowers, standing amidst the flickering candlelight, looking affectionately at Jiang Moxi.
Tonight, he came prepared and brought all the things that women loved.
His friend Cheng Mingxiu even claimed that he had prepared a winning strategy that could help Lin Xian win over Jiang Moxi with ease...
