Chapter 55: I Want to Be CEO of UK
“What do you mean?”
You Ze was smart enough to find out that Xing Shenzhi wouldn’t be so kind to him.
“Nothing, I’m a doctor anyway, and it’s my job to help the sick with their problems.”
“It’s just, I developed this drug in America, and the prescription is unavailable to domestic doctors.”
“Give it to me!”
You Ze suddenly said, “I’d promise you whatever you want!”
Xing Shenzhi nodded with satisfaction, “How clever you are! You deserve to be a member of You’s.”
Xing Shenzhi took a light green bottle out of his pocket, “I want to be CEO of UK.”
You Ze’s hand paused in the air, and took it.
“You have guts!”
“Take it if you want, but whether you can keep it is another thing.”
You Ze looked over the bottle in his hand, ‘Cool.’
Xing Shenzhi waved his hand unconcernedly, “It doesn’t matter. She must keep using this medicine for a month anyway, and one bottle lasts only a week, during which you can think about it.”
“Or are you afraid I’ll surpass you and take your place?”
Xing Shenzhi chuckled and You Ze responded with a deeper smile.
“Get over yourself. Come to challenge me as you want. I’d be happy to give it to you if you win.”
“Just don’t involve irrelevant people, especially her. Otherwise, I’ll despise you even more.”
You Ze waved the bottle and went back to the ward smilingly.
Xing Shenzhi snorted in disdain and turned away.
Shiyao drifted off to sleep as she sobbed, and felt coolness on her leg when half-awake.
“Oh…”
She opened her bleary eyes and saw You Ze carefully applying something to her leg.
“Lie down,”
You Ze pressed her raised head down.
“What are you doing?”
Her voice was a little hoarse. She began to gradually accept the reality after a sleep. As it had come to this, she couldn’t give up since that was not her style. She believed she deserved a better life.
“I’m putting medicine on your wound. Lie still and you’ll recover soon.”
You Ze wrapped up her wound, put away the medicine Xing Shenzhi gave to him, and carefully looked Shiyao in the eye.
“Then, you can go back to work.”
“Really?”
Shiyao’s bright eyes glistened with hope, as if she were in a dream.
“Kiss me, and I’ll tell you.”
You Ze leaned forward, but was roughly pushed away by Shiyao.
“Seriously, tell me!”
You Ze pointed at his face. Shiyao had no choice but to kiss his face, which made You Ze smile.
“It’s true. I won’t let you fair your dream, believe me.”
Shiyao moved her head and burst out crying again, even louder than before.
“Gosh! There you go again!”
You Ze helplessly scratched his hair, flustered by Shiyao’s crying.
“I feel so happy, You Ze.”
Shiyao put her arms around You Ze’s neck, her tears all on his clothes.
“Silly woman…”
You Ze gently patted her on the back, feeling warm liquid dropping on his shoulder.
“I promise you will be happier in the future.”
Shiyao hated hospitals, and her injury was not that serious, while You Ze wanted her to stay in hospital a little longer. For Shiyao, it was torture.
Faced with Shiyao’s insistence, You Ze brought her back home. Shiyao decided not to tell her mother about the injury and planned to go back to work after a few days’ rest at home. You Ze not only refused, but also extended her leave to a month.
“You Ze!”
Shiyao angrily pointed at You Ze’s nose, “You can’t do this to me!”
Jiang Fengyi was already quite sorry for Shiyao and the latter’s yelling made her even more sympathetic. Then she also joined in criticizing You Ze.
“What did you do? I told you to take care of her!”
You Ze looked innocently at Jiang Fengyi, “Nana, she wants to get back to work.”
When she heard this, Jiang Fengyi’s tone immediately changed.
“Yaoyao, listen to me, you must have a good rest at home for at least one month, as the doctor said. Be a good girl…”
Shiyao sniffed and said in a pathetic voice, “Nana, I’ll be bored to death at home.”
Although she improved a lot after becoming a flight attendant, she would kill time in a bar or shopping mall from time to time. It was worse than killing her to keep her at home for a month.
“You won’t, I’ll be with you.”
You Ze held back his laughter and agreed,
“Yeah, you’ll be fine with Nana. Just take a good rest at home.”
Shiyao’s face was blue with anger, but she had no more reason to refuse.
When she lived in You’s house, it was even inappropriate for her to call a friend over.
In bed Shiyao lay bored, imagining the next month. The worst thing was that she hurt her leg and couldn’t go anywhere, and You Ze wouldn’t let her out of bed.
After a while, You Ze took a shower and went back to work. Shiyao instantly asked the servant to make a customized wheelchair for her.
Spinning around in wheelchair, Shiyao was very happy, ‘Wanna ground me? Come on.’
Upon returning home, Qin Wen took a nice bath and went to bed, expecting to receive good news from Ji Manqing after waking.
Sitting on the sofa by the window, Qin Wen played with the Persian cat in her arms and dialed Ji Manqing’s number.
“Beep…”
The call finally got through after a long time. Hardly had Qin Wen spoken out when a stranger’s voice on the line stopped her.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“Hello?”
It was a young woman.
“May I speak to Ji Manqing?”
“Oh, are you her friend?”
“It’s none of your business. Put her on the phone.”
Qin Wen urged impatiently.
“She is dead,” said the young female voice on the other end.
“What?”
Qin Wen rose to her feet, and held the windowsill. The cat was startled and fled the room.
“When did she die?”
“Last night she killed herself. She had broken her legs when she was brought to hospital. It was awful… her face was all ruined…”
Qin Wen quickly hung up, her heart beating fast.
“Ji Manqing is dead, she is dead!”
Qin Wen repeated the words in disbelief, ‘She is dead, so how about Shiyao? Ji Manqing failed…’
As a spoilt bully, she did many bad things without letting her family know. Ji Manqing’s death only influenced her a few minutes.
After calming down, instead of reflecting on herself, Qin Wen was relieved that the incident would be gone with Ji Manqing.
“Humph, Shiyao, you are lucky this time.”
Qin Wen mumbled to herself by the window. Qin Yu, who was comforting the kitty outside, shivered.
…
The company announced that the employee evaluation was put off for a month. To this there was relief, but also some complaints.
Xu Youyou looked through the crowd for a long time, but Shiyao was nowhere to be found, and her phone was still off.
