Then, as if nothing was amiss, she pushed open the door and entered, greeting everyone in the hospital room one by one.
Xia Yong smiled as he greeted Chi Gui.
The aunt, a sincere person, felt it was a pity, but had no complaints about Chi Gui, and smiled as she looked out the door, "You’re here for Nian Nian, right? She went back to rest last night and should be here soon." Chapters first released on novel⁂fire.net
"Okay," Chi Gui nodded and didn’t explain further but stood by the bed, listening as the attending physician inquired about Mrs. Su’s condition.
The attending physician asked in great detail, and by the time Mrs. Su had responded to everything, more than twenty minutes had passed.
"Doctor, is there something wrong with my sister?" Xia Yong, hearing the doctor’s unusual line of questioning, couldn’t help but worry.
The attending physician first glanced at Chi Gui, then smiled, "It’s nothing serious, rest assured."
He needed to check other wards and left after a few brief words.
Chi Gui didn’t leave, and after waiting for Su Niannian to arrive, she chatted with her for a while before standing up to say goodbye.
When she reached the door, Chi Gui seemed to suddenly remember something and turned back to say, "By the way, I have a friend who works at Tenggui Group, named Shen Yun. If you need, I can help you show him the tender. But whether it gets selected depends on the quality of your tender."
Xia Yong, holding his car keys and about to offer Chi Gui a ride, paused when he heard this, then realized that Chi Gui must have overheard his earlier conversation.
And then, he caught on to a name that Chi Gui mentioned—
That name was known throughout Huaxia by anyone with even a slight understanding of business.
The legend who supposedly founded Tenggui Group single-handedly and led the group to rise rapidly, becoming one of the top 500 global companies, leaving a deeply impactful mark in the annals of business.
When Xia Yong heard Chi Gui say this, his first reaction was disbelief.
Yet, he smiled and took out the tender, handing it to Chi Gui, "If you want to see it, take it."
Xia Yong thought Chi Gui was merely curious about the tender and was too embarrassed to ask him directly, so he made up that lie.
Now, the whole Capital City was abuzz with the Tenggui Group’s bidding, and it was normal for a young girl to be curious.
Chi Gui politely accepted the tender and placed it in her backpack, "I’ll let you know the results in about two to three days."
She spoke as if it was a matter of great importance.
Xia Yong smiled and went along with her, "Okay, I’ll wait for your good news. Let me drive you back to the hotel."
Chi Gui shook her head, "My friend’s car is outside, I’ll just go straight there."
With that, Xia Yong didn’t press further, "Alright. If you need any help, just give me a call."
Nian Nian listened from the side, somewhat confused but perceptive enough not to ask, simply saying, "I’ll see you out."
The bodyguard waited in the car outside, and Chi Gui said goodbye to Nian Nian before getting into the car.
The car quickly left the sanatorium.
Chi Gui took out her phone and opened WeChat, where the attending physician had already sent over the detailed conversation they had asked about Mrs. Su.
Chi Gui didn’t look at it, but instead opened Shen Yun’s WeChat: "Got time? Come check if a tender suits your taste."
Shen Yun replied almost instantly: "Yes. See you in thirty minutes."
After that, Chi Gui opened the attending physician’s WeChat.
She didn’t look at the long string of dialogue records the physician had sent; she had remembered all those during their time in the hospital room: "Start with conservative treatment to see, if ineffective, proceed immediately with surgery."
The attending physician was surprised by Chi Gui’s reply in less than a minute.
Those conversations... weren’t they at least a minute’s read?
By the time Chi Gui returned to the hotel, Shen Yun had already arrived.
"Let’s look at it here," Chi Gui sat on the sofa in the lobby, took off her backpack, and took out the tender.
Shen Yun took it, casually flipped it open, "Whose tender is this?"
"Xia Yong’s," Chi Gui replied, "See if it meets your expectations."
Shen Yun thought for a moment, no recollection of this person.
He had an exceptional memory since childhood, capable of remembering the names and faces of all outstanding talents globally.
Since he had no recollection of this Xia Yong, the latter’s capabilities might be mediocre, and the tender likely lacked innovation.
