Chapter 909 - Taking Every Opportunity One Can Get (1)
Yes, Qin Chu said that he was disappointed in her. That line hurt her more than any other.
She hesitated for a long time before finally replying, “I don’t think I did anything wrong.”
Yes, up until now, she still thought that she did everything right. In her opinion, the only way for her to not feel guilty was to testify for Su Yu.
After waiting for a long time, Qin Chu didn’t reply to her. She knew that he was really angry.
Before she even got off work, Zhu Lingling, Jiang Xiaowei, and the others’ phone calls bombarded her.
She was in no mood to reply to them, so she just said a few words and used the excuse that she was going to see a patient to get them off her back.
In the afternoon, she went to the VIP room on the top floor to see Ni Yang.
Ni Yang was following the incident as well, and he had even posted his support for her on Weibo.
That caused a drop in his followers because everyone thought he was trying to suck up to the Young Madam of GK.
At the door, Yingzi asked her to comfort Ni Yang.
“Hey… Patients shouldn’t be on electronics often, put that down.”
As soon as Huo Mian went in, she started lecturing Ni Yang…
Ni Yang turned around and immediately put down his tablet upon seeing that it was Huo Mian.
“Oh my… Sister Mian, how can you still be smiling. It’s going crazy out there.”
“Should I cry instead…?” Huo Mian walked over and sat on the chair opposite of Ni Yang.
She took a tangerine, peeled it, and passed it to him.
“Tangerines and kiwis are high in Vitamin C, remember to eat them often.”
“Sister Mian… Don’t you know that all the news outlets are talking about you?”
“I do.”
“People are all slandering you, they even slandered me when I tried to help you on Weibo. They went from fans to haters… There are so many idiots who don’t know the truth.”
Ni Yang knew what Huo Mian was like, so he thought that it was unfair…
“You… You’re a public figure, you shouldn’t be so analytical or fighting with fans. Go and delete your posts on Weibo.”
“No, the word is out now. I am supporting you till the end.” Ni Yang remained stubborn.
“Those people must’ve said that you are morally wrong, right?” smiling, Huo Mian asked.
“Eh? How do you know? Sister Mian, you’re like a prophet.”
“I can guess, they don’t have much else to say.” Huo Mian was quite calm as she peeled another tangerine and began eating.
“But what actually happened? You didn’t really have something going on with Su Yu, right?”
“Ahem… Do you think there’s something going on with him? Little brat… do you think that I’m a fickle woman too?”
“Of course not, I just thought that maybe you were moved by Su Yu… After all, what he sang last time almost moved me.”
Insiders knew that the song was for Huo Mian and not Jian Tong.
Huo Mian licked her lips, but she didn’t say anything.
“Okay, let’s drop the issue. Get yourself ready, the surgery is coming up.”
“That soon? Did you find a liver already?”
“Mhm, we found one a long time ago, we’re just waiting for all the main surgeons to arrive. One is away at a conference, and we’re waiting for him. To make sure that nothing happens, we’ve prepared the main surgeon and three assistants.”
“So grand, it’s not my style.” Ni Yang laughed, as he was in a good mood.
“Of course, you’re my little brother. I have to make sure that you rest easy, right? So you should spend all your energy recovering… When you’re healthy, you’re going to act in films and bring glory to GK Film and Television, okay?”
Huo Mian patted Ni Yang’s head lovingly…
Now that Zhixin wasn’t home, she treated Ni Yang like her biological brother.
Ni Yang nodded. “Don’t worry, I won’t let you down. Also… Sis, be yourself and don’t listen to what those people say.”
“Mhm.”
Huo Mian nodded and left the VIP room. When she got off work, Qin Chu still hadn’t called.
She wanted to call him a few times during the day, but she didn’t have the courage to.
She was scared that Qin Chu won’t pick up or hang up right away…
– At GK Headquarters –
When Huo Mian’s negative news surfaced, Yang lost his cool.
He witnessed his boss’s face turning cold like a glacier; it was absolutely terrifying.
“Sir, it’s time to go,” Yang looked at his watch and carefully reminded him.
Qin Chu didn’t talk, he just sat in front of his desk with a dark expression on his face…
