Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Nangong Ci, dressed in his white coat and clutching a file, stood at the door pretending to be innocent.
Upon seeing a pair of cold eyes sweep over him…
He quickly turned around, “Carry on, I didn’t see anything, pretend I was never here.”
-Deputy Dean.” The speaker was the young nurse from earlier, “Where did you run off to? People have been looking for you for ages, Miss Su is waiting for
your signature.”
Her eyes lit up with admiration, her voice sweet and coquettish, making even Su Wanwan’s previously forced voice sound genuine!
“Ahem.” Nangong Ci coughed twice, speaking with dignity, “What’s your rush? I am here now, aren’t I?”
He left only for a minute to go and check a ward downstairs, and the elder brother immediately made advances on the little lady in his office. Talk about seizing the opportunity! So impatient!
All the nonsense about virtue and moral integrity-bullshit! It was all bloody nonsense!
Old men really are closeted perverts!
Completely and utterly lascivious!
After dismissing the enamored young nurse, peach blossoms twinkled in Nangong Ci’s eyes as he scanned the faces of Huo Jingshen and Su Wanwan. He shook his head and clucked his tongue, “Elder brother, your moves are really efficient, just two days and you’ve got the girl. And the situation is this intense already…looks like I’ll have to knock to make sure the coast is clear before entering my own office, hahaha…”
Su Wanwan shot Huo Jingshen a deadly glare.
Suppressing her embarrassment, she turned to Nangong Ci, “Are you my grandfather’s primary doctor?”
She had already reviewed the case. Her grandpa’s surgery was performed by this hospital’s Deputy Dean, a renowned surgeon with numerous successful surgeries and countless international awards under his belt.
She had thought he would be an elderly man in his fifties or sixties, but he turned out to be this playboy?
Nangong Ci seemed surprised, “You are Grandpa Su’s granddaughter?
So, aside from Su Yanyan, the Su family had another precious daughter hidden away?
“My grandfather is leaving the hospital today, please…”
“Amazing!” Nangong Ci clapped with exaggerated shock, “Since you are Grandpa Su’s granddaughter, and he especially likes me, I can put in a good word or two for elder brother in front of Grandpa Su…”
“Can you just cut the chatter!” Su Wanwan said irritably, and slapped the table, “I’m in a hurry. Please proceed with discharge formalities quickly!
Nangong Ci:”…”
**
Once the formalities were completed, Su Wanwan pretty much fled the scene.
The office fell silent for a while, and then…
“Hahahaha!” Nangong Ci laughed till he pounded the table, “Cut the chatter? Hahaha! Elder brother, did your lady play too much ‘King Glory’? Hahaha!
It was absolutely hilariously!
Huo Jingshen sat on the couch, lighting a cigarette with long, slender fingers, and casually remarked, “You laughing like that makes you look like an idiot.”
II II
The laughter ceased.
Nangong Ci’s mouth twitched violently.
After a moment, unable to resist, he sidled over, “Elder brother, this girl is too intense. Can your old bones handle it? Don’t end up unable to handle it and get broken down…”
“I have to return to Y Country in a few days.” Huo Jingshen cut him off.
“What? Is the Eastern Alliance causing trouble for Yunda again?” Nangong Ci immediately sat up straight.
Although Huo Jingshen returned to China to take over Huo Yuan Group, he has established his own business empire in Europe. Nangong Ci also has a stake in Yunda, so his attitude quickly became serious.
After taking a drag from his cigarette, Huo Jingshen spoke in a calm tone, -Xihan is planning to collaborate with the Eastern Alliance.”
Fu Xihan was Huo Jingshen’s senior back in college in Y Country, and could be considered as the second founder of Yunda.
Nangong Ci frowned, “So what are you implying?
Huo Jingshen gave him a sharp look, “Why don’t you go?
“Absolutely not!” Nangong Ci said with dignity, “As perfect a man as me, how could I casually enter the tomb of matrimony? Besides…”
He spoke with an ambiguous tone, “The young miss from the Eastern Household likes you and doesn’t fancy other men at all! She’s not bad herself, albeit a bit arrogant. She’s 28 this year, not a bad match for you who’s 30, right? Also, she’s a pretty woman with well-proportioned features, a strong woman indeed. She’s been smitten with you for so many years, and could possibly help with the European market in the future. Additionally, you could own twenty percent of the Eastern Alliance s shares…
The rest of his words were cut off trenchantly under the warning look from someone.
Nangogong Ci cleared his throat twice and stood up, walked over to the table, and casually picked up a textbook…
“That Su Wanwan,” Huo Jingshen suddenly began,”… should be the person the Eastern Alliance has been relentlessly searching for.
With a “thud”, the hefty “Practical Cardiology” hit the tabletop.
“What do you mean?” Nangong Ci turned around, an incredulous and puzzled look on his handsome face, “Are you approaching the girl for this reason?” The Eastern Alliance holds a great amount of power in Europe, but in recent years, they secretly sent people to conduct confidential investigations in our country, the exact details unknown to anyone.
Huo Jingshen took a drag from his cigarette, the handsome face in the smoke was quite revealing, “Yes and no.”
Nangong Ci:”…”

At the other end.
Su Wanwan had reached the ground floor, as soon as the elevator doors opened, she saw Su Yanyan standing outside.
“Such a slowpoke… Making everyone wait for you. Do you have no shame?” she sarcastically exclaimed, looking at the woman standing before her.
Su Wanwan brushed her off and started making her way towards the ward.
“Hold on!” Su Yanyan rushed ahead, blocking her path.
Despite wearing high heels, even so, standing at only 1.6 meters, Su Yanyan was still significantly shorter than Su Wanwan.
Looking down at her, Su Wanwan said, “Good dogs don’t stand in the way.” It was as if Su Yanyan hadn’t heard her, as she squinted her eyes intensely and examined her face.
Su Wanwan had put her long curls into a bun, but it was clear that compared with earlier, it looked significantly more disheveled. Then there were her lips… They were red and swollen, as if a man had kissed them not long ago.
“Where have you been?” she asked hastily, suspicion in her eyes.
Xing Yuyun had said he would go outside for a smoke as soon as Su Wanwan came in. Could it be that the two had a secretive meeting?
“None of your damn business.”
Su Wanwan’s retort seemed to confirm Su Yanyan’s suspicions.
Enraged, Su Yanyan pointed her finger at Su Wanwan and said, “Su Wanwan, listen closely. Xing Yuyun is my fiance now. We’re getting engaged next month. From today, mind your own business and stay out of ours. If you dare to approach him again, I’ll…”
“Smack!”
Su Wanwan slapped Su Yanyan’s hand away, looking stern and cold, “Su Yanyan, listen to me closely. Keep your man leashed. Don’t let him roam around bothering me like a rabid dog. I find it extremely annoying and revolting!”
Su Yanyan’s delicate face twisted in anger, “What do you mean by that? Who are you calling a dog? Stand right there, Su Wanwan, stop right there!” Leaving Yanyan behind, Wanwan walked away with an air of disdain..
