Secretary Gao didn’t know what his president was thinking. After he gave the time, the man just sat there in silence, his face clouded over, leaving Gao clueless about his thoughts. Feeling a bit intimidated, Gao hurriedly placed the car keys that had been called for in front of him.
"Just before coming here, I’ve already notified Doctor Ji. If you go in the evening, he will take you there, so if anything happens, he can take care of you," Gao said.
After waiting a bit longer and seeing that he still didn’t speak, eventually, Secretary Gao, holding a platter of documents, left.
Once Secretary Gao left, the hospital room became quiet. Apart from the video of the stockholders’ meeting streaming on the laptop, the room was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
When Ji Chengzhi entered, what he saw was exactly this scene...
In the spotlessly white hospital room, a tall and handsome man was casually sitting in an ivory chair near the window. Wearing a blue and white striped hospital gown, which far from diminishing his aura, under the bright light and bold color, made his skin seem even more fair and clear. His profile, as he gazed thoughtfully out the window bathed in sunlight, looked as if it had stepped out of a painting.
Feeling a strong surge of envy, Ji Chengzhi walked in and asked, "What’s wrong? Still hesitating?"
Ou Mucen, hearing the voice, didn’t look back but directly turned off the video on his laptop...
"Why have you come? Don’t you have surgery to perform?" he asked.
"At least give me a break. I came to see what you’ve decided. Are you going to attend your shareholders’ banquet, or are you going to see that woman? It’s your call," Chengzhi said, plopping down opposite him.
Ou Mucen’s gaze flickered, but he didn’t answer the question. Instead, he picked up the water glass on the desk and slowly took a sip.
Seeing this, Chengzhi remarked, "As for the shareholders’ banquet, you don’t need me to tell you it’s important. You’ve been wanting the Longfeng shares for years, and now your old man is personally helping you to rise to the position. It’s a great opportunity, but the Qiao Family..."
"If you don’t speak up, no one will take you for a mute," the man drinking water finally said coldly.
Chengzhi, caught off guard, choked...
If he doesn’t speak, naturally no one would think he’s mute, but if even he fell silent, then he would truly become a mute.
This secret that could not be shared, aside from speaking to himself, what was he but a mute?
Chengzhi casually picked up a magazine from the desk: "Yes, I’m a bit noisy. But Mucen, you need to be clear about what you want. Is your career more important, or is your heart?"
The man sitting there heard that word and his face immediately showed scorn: "Isn’t my career what fills my heart?"
Forget it, there’s no point in talking anymore, such a stubborn extremist!
Chengzhi stood up: "Fine, go or don’t go, it’s none of my business anyway."
After speaking, he left the room.
He could actually understand how he was feeling right now. The desire to go was because he couldn’t let go, but if he truly decided to go, he couldn’t pass the barrier in his heart.
What a proud man he was, that woman had hurt him so, why should he go find her?
PS: Sorry, I have something to attend to today and need to step out, here are three Chapters for now, and I’ll be back in the evening...
