Just then, the manager hurried back.
He had already learned about the incident through Xiaowen over the phone and thought it was just a matter of two young girls needing to offer a sincere apology and compensation. However, he hadn’t anticipated that one of the girls was Lai Hao’s daughter!
For a moment, the manager couldn’t help but shoot a cold glance at Xiao Song, "Xiao Song, what’s going on here?"
After speaking, he quickly turned to Lai Hao and said, "Chairman Lai, please calm down, there must be some misunderstanding here!"
Hearing this, Lai Hao was indifferent, "Misunderstanding? My daughter was bullied to the point her heart condition acted up, and you call that a misunderstanding?"
Having said that, he quickly walked over to Lai Nuannuan, "Nuannuan, how are you feeling? Did you take your medicine?"
Lai Nuannuan shook her head after hearing him, "I forgot to bring my medicine today."
Upon hearing this, Lai Hao quickly took out a medicine bottle and poured out a Heart-saving Pill for Lai Nuannuan.
After Lai Nuannuan swallowed the pill, she calmly recounted the events to Lai Hao. At the end, she said, "Dad, she hit me."
Lai Hao immediately revealed a cold smirk.
The manager was already sweating profusely from his forehead and didn’t forget to glare resentfully at Xiao Song.
Xiao Song was completely stunned at this point.
She truly hadn’t known that these two girls had such powerful connections!
At this moment, Lai Hao said to Lai Nuannuan, "Nuannuan, you and Yuan Yuan go back first. Leave the matter here to dad."
Hearing this, Lai Nuannuan nodded, "Okay, dad! Yuan Yuan, let’s go."
Yuan Yuan nodded upon hearing this and quickly helped Lai Nuannuan into the car.
Once inside the car, Yuan Yuan said with a guilty face, "Nuannuan, I’m so sorry, it’s all my fault for dragging you into this!"
That woman had intended to hit her, but Nuannuan had taken the blow while trying to protect her!
Her own health was fine; taking a hit didn’t matter much to her, but Nuannuan had a heart condition. If anything serious happened, she wouldn’t know how to explain it!
Seeing Yuan Yuan’s remorseful expression, Lai Nuannuan smiled slightly, "I’m okay, don’t worry, Yuan Yuan. I’m a bit tired, can I lie on you and take a nap?"
Hearing this, how could Yuan Yuan refuse?
Thus, Lai Nuannuan laid down, resting on Yuan Yuan’s lap.
After laying down, she said to the driver, "Uncle Zhong, let’s go."
Once the car started, Lai Nuannuan wrapped her arms around Yuan Yuan’s waist, their position intimate.
Yuan Yuan was extremely concerned about her health and wasn’t paying attention to these details.
Little did she know, at this very moment, Lai Nuannuan was planning how to use this opportunity to take their relationship a step further.
At the very least, she wanted Yuan Yuan to realize she couldn’t do without her, that her presence meant something different.
With this thought, Lai Nuannuan slowly closed her eyes.
Arriving at the Lai Family home, Yuan Yuan nervously woke Lai Nuannuan and accompanied her upstairs.
Once home, Lai Nuannuan quickly went to her bedroom and lay down, looking frail.
"Yuan Yuan, will you stay and sleep with me tonight?" Lai Nuannuan asked weakly.
Hearing this, Yuan Yuan agreed without hesitation.
"Sure! I’ll stay and take care of you. You should rest now!" Yuan Yuan said.
Lai Nuannuan smiled slightly, then closed her eyes.
At that time, small snowflakes started to fall outside the window. The source of thɪs content is novel•fire.net
Qianxun and Huo Tianzun were unaware after they left that Xiao Song, whom they had ignored, would take her anger out on Yuan Yuan and Lai Nuannuan.
Seeing the snowflakes drift from the sky, Qianxun said, "Yanzhi, let’s find somewhere to eat, shall we?"
"Sure, I’ll take you there!" Huo Tianzun replied.
Afterward, the two headed toward the hotel Huo Tianzun had booked.
