109 HOW DARE SHE? (1/2)
Hu Lei remained in the hospital for four more days for further observation. During that period, she got to know her brother a little more. Though he was young, his mind was quick, and she found him to be an interesting little man.
She also had Zhong Feng bring her laptop to her even though he was reluctant to do so. In his opinion, she should have been focusing on recovery. Hu Lei laughed at him when he expressed this thought. How was she supposed to sit around doing nothing?
More importantly, she did not want to take a break from her work. Her mind was functioning at an exceptional rate. Though it might be a symptom of a disease, she felt that she might as well take advantage it.
Who knew whether she would continue functioning normally or her mind would experience gradual deterioration?
Hu Lei had always been a realist. If she really developed a mental disorder, she would not give up on treatment. After all, she wanted to live a long life and be happy with Zhong Feng for as long as possible. However, that did not mean that she did not understand that there was a possibility that she could develop a serious condition and even fail to recover.
So, she needed to squeeze the last drop of her potential while she still could in case the worst case scenario came to pass. At the top of her bucket list was becoming a popular and beloved author once again.
She intended to stage her grand comeback as soon as possible. If she did not end up well, at least her name would still be remembered.
On the day of her hospital discharge, Assistant Chen came to pick her up. Zhong Feng had an important meeting so he could not be there in person. Therefore, he sent his most trusted subordinate. Hu Lei greeted the ever professional man with a smile and waved at Little FaiFai before getting into the vehicle.
She immediately continued working because she did not want to lose her flow. She only paused for a moment to respond to a text message from Housekeeper Li. As she put her phone away, her lips stretched evilly. When Assistant Chen saw her little smile, he felt a cold shiver. It reminded him of his boss' face when he had a plot brewing.
”Miss Hu, welcome back.” Housekeeper Li was waiting with the always silent chef at the entrance.
Hu Lei felt awkward about the reception, but she was also touched.
”Thank you. I am glad to be back.”
”You don't know how worried we all were.” Housekeeper Lei added.
Actually, he wanted to confess that they all missed her because of their master's mood during her absence. They had to trend softly around him. His aura of gloom had been a little too much for them. One of the cleaners had been so nervous that she had spilt water on important documents when cleaning his desk.
It had only through the intervention of Housekeeper Li that she had kept a job with only a penalty. In truth, the big boss was worse than he had been before Hu Lei had come to the house. At least during those days, he only stayed at the villa occasionally.
”Thank you. I am sorry for worrying you all.”
”What would you like to eat today? Chef has been waiting all day to ask you.” Housekeeper Li spoke.
Hu Lei turned a doubtful eye on the silent man. The man nodded with bright eyes. It seemed that he really was waiting to ask. Unfortunately for him, she did not know food. For a well-travelled person, her knowledge on cuisine was severely limited.
