Han Yong turned around and looked at the few figures that entered the hospital through the window. With a cold smile, he said, ”Your colleague has come to see you. I've already informed them that CEO Xiao will accept your interview.”
”Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan, we are here to see you.” Before he could open the ward's door, the director's loud voice sounded. However, this time, there was no anger or reprimand. Instead, it was filled with kindness and flattery.
Mo Xiaoxiao raised her head and looked at Han Yong. Then, she saw the director with a bucket of fruit walking in. Behind him was Wang Yiling and her colleagues from the office. Everyone was present.
”Xiao Yan, are you alright?” Wang Yiling asked anxiously. Just now, Secretary Han had contacted the office and said that Xiao Menghan had accepted an interview with Mo Xiaoyan. However, on the way back, he had met with a car accident and lost his memories from last night.
Wang Yiling clearly remembered that she had met Xiao Yiling in the pharmacy this morning. She knew how she had gotten the interview, and the rest of the people in the office were discussing it in private, but none of them made it clear. Everyone in the ward seemed concerned and worried, as if they were brothers and sisters.
Secretary Han stood at the side, gently and courteously accompanying him, while responding to the Director's flattery.
”This is the interview script. Yi Ling, take it back and organize it for the director to take a look.” Mo Xiaoxiao suddenly felt tired. She did not want her good friend to lose this job. The dean had already found an opportunity to beat the crap out of him and wanted to expel Wang Yiling.
The director's plump body squeezed to the bedside and smiled with his eyes narrowed: ”Aiya, Xiao Yan is still the best. You should rest and recuperate here. I will definitely get the script to appear in the newspaper tomorrow.” He had already seen the rise in his position and the surge of money.
A trace of disdain flashed through Han Yong's eyes as he calmly pressed down on a button by the wall. He did not want these people to stay inside the ward for too long and pollute the air.
After everyone was sent out by the nurse, Mo Xiaoxiao picked up the bag that Han Yong had given her. It contained some of her previous daily necessities, a destroyed camera, as well as her phone and living expenses.
She didn't know that Han Yong had actually just taken these from her room. Han Yong never missed a thing when it came to acting.
Picking up the phone, Mo Xiaoxiao hesitated for a moment before dialing that familiar number. It was busy. After waiting for a while, she called it back and it was still busy. The third time she called, her phone rang but no one answered.
Disappointed, Mo Xiaoyan put down the phone. Her slender fingers fiddled with the screen of the phone and a bad feeling enveloped her heart. This was the first time she had hung up on Xuan Peng.
After getting off the bed, Mo Xiaoxiao took the few hundred yuan in the bag and slipped out of the hospital.
After exiting the ward, Wang Yiling found an excuse to go to the washroom and call Xuan Peng, ”Mr. Xuan, I just saw Xiao Yan. She gave me the interview with CEO Xiao Menghan. I was wondering if we could meet up to talk. Xiao Yan seems to have changed.”
Xuan Peng's hand tightened around his phone. He had just rolled to the edge of his throat when he swallowed his worried question back down. He said, ”Okay, where are you? I'll come and pick you up.”
”No, no need. I'll wait for you at the Dream Building Cafe next to your company. We'll talk when we meet.” Wang Yiling quickly hung up the phone and let out a long breath. Her face was flushed red. The heavens had given her and Xuan Peng a chance.
