Ni Xuexue appeared surprised, "What’s wrong? Can it be that you still haven’t given up on Lu Yinchu?"
Seeing that Han Qing remains silent, Ni Xuexue sighed, "Han Qing, I actually understand you. After all your struggles to get close to Lu Yinchu, Chen Yaojin swoops in and takes him away. Anyone would be frustrated! That young girl who got Lu Yinchu’s attention, I’ve only seen her from a distance and she seemed nothing impressive. Just a bit younger, pure and cute, but nothing more. I don’t see what he saw in her!"
"Enough, stop talking!" Han Qing bit her lip, her face paler than before.
"Alright, alright, I won’t say more. Don’t get upset. As for Lu Yinchu, I feel that he’s not an ordinary man who can be easily won over by any woman. I, for one, am slightly intimidated by him. On the other hand, I think your cousin is a fine man. Regrettably, whenever we meet, he never looks at me directly which is quite excessive!"
"My cousin?" Han Qing laughed coldly, "Don’t rely on him, he’s in love with someone, and he won’t like you!"
"In love with someone?" Ni Xuexue froze, "No way, who is it?"
"The sister of Lu Yinchu, Lu Yinyue." Han Qing composed herself as she spoke, "But Lu Yinyue died in a car accident eight years ago, and she was even engaged to another man."
"Oh, your cousin is quite faithful, still holding a candle for a dead person, and a woman who belonged to someone else. Wow, such a man is indeed a rare breed. I’m starting to like him even more!"
"I advise you to let it go, otherwise the one getting hurt will still be you!" After finishing, Han Qing forcefully pulled her hand away, "I need to go to the bathroom, wait for me!"
Ni Xuexue pouted, watching Han Qing’s retreating figure and thought, ’big deal!’ If it weren’t for the label ’Han Shaojing’s cousin’ on you, I’d not even bother with you! You deserve to be dumped by Lu Yinchu!
Ni Xuexue hadn’t expected that Han Shaojing would come to pick up Han Qing from the hospital.
Han Shaojing had heard from his assistant that Han Qing had been hospitalized because of a gastric problem. Once he found out, he immediately drove over, bumping into Han Qing and Ni Xuexue as they were leaving the hospital.
Seeing the pale look on Han Qing’s face, he frowned slightly, "If you’re in this condition, why are you still forcing yourself? What did the doctor say?!"
"He said to come back for a check-up in a while, but I think it’s just an old problem, it’s fine!"
"How could it be fine?" Han Shaojing was a bit anxious, "Look at you, how can you walk? I think it’s better for you to stay in the hospital!"
Han Qing started to refuse, but Ni Xuexue interrupted, "Mr. Han, you’re right. I tried to persuade her to stay in the hospital earlier, but she’s been so stubborn, resistant like a bull!"
Han Qing furrowed her brows, telling Han Shaojing, "It really isn’t that serious. This isn’t the first or second time. If I rest a little when I get home, I’ll be fine! At most, I won’t drink alcohol next time!"
"If you want to rest, then rest in the hospital. You are my employee, and this happened while you were drinking with clients. I’ll give you a paid leave and the company will bear the hospital expenses. Let the Vice President handle your work for now. All you need to do is get better."
"No more buts, it’s settled. Wait here while I take care of the hospital procedures..." Han Shaojing turned to Ni Xuexue and asked, "Miss Ni, could you help Han Qing find a place to sit and rest for a while. I’ll be back soon."
Ni Xuexue responded with a charming smile, "Sure, Mr. Han. I’ll take good care of Han Qing. She’s like a sister to me!"
Han Shaojing smirked slightly, and Han Qing’s face hardened a little, aware that he was trying to provoke her, "I know you are worried about your uncle. But don’t worry, I’ll make sure someone watches over him."
With that, Han Qing chose not to protest further.
She did feel that her stomach ache this time was worse than before.
Her fingers clenched slightly. Why did she have to fall ill, specifically at this time? Was she just unfortunate?
After Han Shaojing left, Ni Xuexue admired his retreating figure, "My, oh my, no one beats Mr. Han in comparison. At least he doesn’t push people away like Lu Yinchu does! Ahh, the more I look, the more attractive he seems!"
Han Qing pursed her lips but said nothing in response.
When Han Qing was formally admitted, she didn’t ask for much, just hoping to recover quickly and be discharged.
There were a myriad of things at the company that required her attention, apart from that, she had other things to take care of too. She knew she can’t afford to stay in the hospital for long.
