C46 (1/2)
The welcome banquet continued.
Huo Yanshen's situation was turning worse and worse. Due to a headache, all he could see was a blur.
”Director Huo, I'll take you away.”
”Yes.”
He Fei carefully led the way, his eyes filled with worry for his Boss.
On the way out of the banquet hall, there were constantly people coming up to talk to Huo Yanshen.
Every single person that appeared, Huo Yanshen would pretend to stop and reply with a few words before leaving.
By the time he reached the gate, his back was wet.
As the cups of light intersected, Huo Yanyue watched Huo Yanshen's back as he left. That rogue smile on his lips slowly dropped to the freezing point.
After the two of them left the banquet hall, Huo Yanshen finally could not hold back and smacked his head hard, ”He Fei, medicine...”
”It's in the car.” He Fei held onto his BOSS and was about to walk forward, but when he looked up, he saw a few people with cameras squatting at the end of the corridor, ”BOSS, there's a reporter. Let's hide first.”
”Yes.”
Huo Yanshen allowed He Fei to support him as he walked away.
It was just as Huo Yanyue had said, there were reporters crouching everywhere on the floor. In the end, He Fei could even curse, ”Damn, Second Young Master came back for real this time.”
In the end, when the two of them went to the washroom, He Fei had no other choice but to find a relatively clean cubicle to help his BOSS in.
”Was that Director Huo just now?”
”I clearly saw him here, how come he's gone?”
”This is the washroom. It should be convenient for Director Huo.”
”Then we'll wait outside. We must get the interview materials from the Director Huo.”
”Alright.”
Hearing this conversation, He Fei panicked and turned around. Looking at his own boss's pale face and the beads of cold sweat on his forehead, he wanted to become a Ninja and escape with his boss.
”Boss, what do we do now?”
Huo Yanshen opened her lips with much difficulty, ”Change into my clothes, and lure them away.”
He Fei nodded, ”The Boss will definitely be able to hold on, wait for me to come back.”
”Yes.”
The space between Huo Yanshen's brows tightly knitted together.
He Fei did not hesitate anymore. He quickly exchanged clothes with Huo Yanshen, then stepped out of the cubicle and headed outside.
As expected, the few reporters chased after He Fei, who locked the door from the inside.
He held his head tightly as his whole body trembled uncontrollably. Only by clenching his teeth and grinding them together could he suppress the urge to cry out in pain.
Slowly, he closed his eyes.
”...”
In his mind, he suddenly thought of the Two Small Ones, thought of Su Nuan, and thought of what happened five years ago.
He painfully opened his eyes, took out his cell phone from his pocket and unwittingly pulled out her number.
When Su Nuan received the phone, he was preparing to go to the amusement park to capture Two Small Ones.
She frowned when she saw the caller ID.
”Ho …”
”Su … Wen.”
Su Nuan blurted out when he heard Huo Yanshen's hoarse voice, ”Are you having a fever again? Or is it another headache? ”
Huo Yanshen did not say a word.
Su Nuan's heartstrings seemed to have been pulled by something as she hurriedly said, ”Don't fall asleep, where are you? At home? I'll be right back. ”
”In …” ”The Imperial City.”
”Imperial City?” Su Nuan was startled, she raised her eyes and looked at the children's dining hall's signboard, wasn't the signboard the Imperial City? ”What floor are you on?”
”Three.”
Su Nuan still wanted to ask, but there was a 'bang' on the other end of the phone, and no more sounds.
She got up and quickly walked to the amusement park. She briefly told the Two Small Ones and then had the waiter temporarily look after the child for her.
Su Nuan walked up the stairs and arrived at the third floor. As she walked, she called Huo Yanshen.
There was still no answer on the other end of the phone, and the phone did not ring.
The entire third floor was so big, she had only used one phone call from Huo Yanshen to find him. What if this was just a joke?
”Forget it. The chances of finding someone on the third floor is much higher than when a big boss would joke around.”
Su Nuan only heard a burst of ringtone coming from the male restroom after he passed by the washroom.
Su Nuan hung up the phone, and the bell also stopped ringing.
She looked around to make sure no one was around before rushing in.
”Mr. Huo … ”Hoh …”
Crack * A door was opened from the inside.
Su Nuan looked over and saw Huo Yanshen coming out from the cubicle.
She scuttled over like a rabbit and just before he landed, she reached out her hand to block his path.
”Mr. Huo, how are you?”
Huo Yanshen opened his mouth, but could not find a single word to say.
Su Nuan took his hand away, and from the corner of his eyes, he saw Yue Yang's phone lying not far away.
No wonder he just said something and stopped answering the call. It turned out that after the phone fell, it slipped out of the compartment.
She opened her bag and poured out the contents.
She remembered that night, Huo Yanshen ate the leftover medicine and placed it in her bag.
Sure enough, she found the medicine bottle in a pile of cosmetics. While his consciousness was still intact, she quickly poured out a pill and fed it to him.
The effect of the pill wasn't that fast, but like last time, Huo Yanshen closed his eyes and wanted to fall asleep.
However, when he thought about how he was still in the hotel and how the crisis had yet to be resolved, he forcefully opened his eyes.
