2613 If God Wants You Dead, He Will Make You Crazy First (3)
“Big Brother Qian, I know that you’re in a hurry. I’ll be fast.” Zhang Manlin thought that she was being very useful, little did she know…
“Don’t stress, follow our original plan… I just wanted to say that I’m running on a tight schedule.”
“Big Brother Qian, don’t worry. Vice Director will be yours.”
He smiled but did not reply…
“Big Brother Qian, don’t be angry. I’ll do as you command, I’ll change my target to picking apart Qin Chu and Su Yu.” “Mhm, try your best.”
“Then… I’ll get going now.” Zhang Manlin didn’t want to stay for any longer. She was afraid that the more she spoke, the more mistakes she would make.
She couldn’t take Huo Siqian on. If she angered him, she would be buried alive.
“Wait, Linlin,” Huo Siqian called her back.
Yes?” Zhang Manlin turned around.
“Did you say that the guy named Liu Ze shook hands with Mian?” smiling, Huo Siqian asked.
“Mhm.” Confused, she nodded.
“Oh, okay. Go now.”
“Mhm.” Zhang Manlin walked out with a trembling heart.
Huo Siqian rose, walked to his floor-length windows, and stared out…
-Inside South Side Recuperation Centre –
Huo Mian took care of the miscellaneous tasks at hand and felt a headache.
The temperature was getting warmer, but it was the changing of the seasons and germs were everywhere. Huo Mian thought she was getting a cold.
“Sister Mian, are you alright?” Seeing her down made Chen Jie worried.
“Nothing, just a little tired.”
“Then you should leave soon, don’t work overtime.”
“Mhm, I’m leaving early today.” Huo Mian packed up and left with her purse and car keys.
She saw a bunch of pink roses on her hood.
She picked it up and saw a card.
Thank you for your care.”
There was no signature but it had to be Liu Ze from the tone of it.
She looked around and didn’t see anybody. She picked up her phone and called him.
“Vice Director…”
“Doctor Liu, are the flowers from you?”
“Mhm, I ordered them just for you. Thank you for your care.”
“I don’t think roses are appropriate.” Huo Mian was a little displeased. She had too many scandals lately already.
From Wei Dong to Jiang Ye, to Su Yu, and now Liu Ze. She was close to exploding.
“Oh, roses don’t necessarily represent love. They’re Bulgarian roses, the colors are beautiful. I thought you’d like it.” “Sorry, I really don’t like it. Please don’t do it again in the future.”
After speaking, Huo Mian picked up the roses. She wanted to throw it on the ground but didn’t want to litter.
At that moment, she saw a nurse walk out of the hospital…
“Good evening.”
“What’s up? Vice Director?”
“Take this. If you like it, keep it. If you don’t, toss it in the garbage. Please and thank you.”
After speaking, Huo Mian got on the car and drove off, leaving the confused nurse on the curb.
When Huo Mian returned home from work, she saw Qin Ning in casual clothes playing games with the twins. “Mommy, you’re home,” Little Bean greeted her.
“Where’s Grandpa and Grandma?” seeing her parents-in-law missing, Huo Mian asked.
“They’re visiting a friend. Grandpa said that his old friend returned from Hong Kong. They’re going out for tea, dinner, and sauna,” Little Bean said.
“Mhm.” Huo Mian nodded.
“Mommy, you didn’t come home with Daddy?” Little Bean asked.
“Your daddy isn’t home yet?” Huo Mian finally realized that Qin Chu’s car was missing.
“Sis-in-Law, what’s going on between you and my big brother?” Qin Ning couldn’t hold it in anymore. She rose and secretly asked Huo Mian, afraid that the twins would hear.
