This was Jian Mo's third blind date this month, and to her surprise, she ended up with a bald man with gold-capped teeth. How could she be so unlucky? Couldn't she ever meet a high-quality ...
Chapter 99: Meeting Song Ke in the Gynecology Department
Jian Mo subconsciously felt a little resistant to his excessive concern, "...not really, it's my own problem. There was some malicious competition at work."
Xu Ming didn't believe it, his eyes were filled with heartache, "Xiao Mo, I told you, you don't have to pretend to be strong, I'm behind you."
These words had already crossed the line. Jian Mo glanced at Aunt Liu, who looked suspicious, and quickly said, "Brother Ming, I know you treat me as your sister, but I'm actually doing very well, don't worry."
Xu Ming received her hint and sobered up a little. He shook his head helplessly, "Don't let something like this happen again next time and make me worry, okay?"
"Of course." Jian Mo smiled.
On the way back, Aunt Liu helped her get off the elevator and asked tentatively, "Xiaomo, is that doctor just now related to you?"
Jian Mo had a clue in her mind and replied quickly, "No, it's not Aunt Liu. He was my father's attending physician. He was kind and knew I was having a hard time, so he took extra care of me. If it weren't for him all these years, my father might have passed away long ago."
Aunt Liu seemed to understand, "He treats you as his sister?"
"...Yes, what else could it be." Jian Mo felt guilty when he said this.
"That's good, Xiaomo. Now that you have Achen, he will handle anything. No matter how bad things get for you, you still have your grandfather behind you, who will always protect you. Achen, with his status, can't tolerate any mistakes from his partner." Aunt Liu didn't ask any more questions and said cryptically, "The two most important people in the Huo family like you very much."
Jian Mo pursed her lips and nodded. She really didn't dare to say that she and Huo Qichen were just a couple for business, and he couldn't really say that he liked her.
As the elevator arrived at the lobby downstairs, Aunt Liu suddenly slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, I left the thermos in the ward. I have to go up and get it."
So Jian Mo found a seat in the hall and sat down.
Hospitals are probably the places in the world that are least short of performance. They are always crowded, and everyone's face is filled with anxiety.
In front is the gynecology department. There is a long queue in the corridor. There are young women crying and women with big bellies smiling.
Jian Mo stared at it in immersion, when suddenly, a familiar figure appeared inside, limping out with a list in his hand.
Song Ke!
Jian Mo's face changed color and she squinted her eyes to make sure she was not mistaken.
Why is Song Ke here? She is injured and should be in the surgery department now. Is she pregnant?
The more she thought about it, the more something seemed wrong. Jian Mo subconsciously stood up, walked through the crowd and followed him out. Song Ke didn't notice her and walked straight to the underground parking lot. His injuries had not healed yet, so he walked a little slowly.
The bodyguards' beatings were neither too harsh nor too light, enough to keep her out of bed for half a month. But not only did she get out of bed, she also came to the gynecology department for a separate examination.
So she probably didn't drive herself, someone must have come to pick her up. But I haven't heard that she has a boyfriend in all this time.
While Jian Mo was following, she sent a message to Aunt Liu, saying that she was leaving first and going to Huo's to find Huo Qichen.
The reply from the other side: Be sure to be safe.
Jian Mo stared at the front. Song Ke walked through the twists and turns and came step by step to a Mercedes-Benz. A man immediately got out of the car, opened the door and helped her in.
The parking lot was dim, and she couldn't quite make out the man's appearance, but he looked familiar... Jian Mo couldn't remember where she had seen him before, and was about to take a closer look when he suddenly looked over at her warily. She immediately turned her back and hid, her heart pounding.
She saw the front just now...
When she turned around, the other party seemed to have noticed her. He stuffed Song Ke into the car and walked towards Jian Mo step by step. His footsteps sounded like slow slicing.
She closed her eyes, thinking that if all else failed, she would just give up and run. Just as the man was about to arrive, a pair of large hands covered her face and mouth. She widened her eyes and saw a figure appear from the other side.
Gradually, I saw clearly that it was Zhou Liangqi!
He was dressed in a suit and tie, and seemed to be here on business. His expression was very cold when he was not smiling. He winked at her and pulled her behind him.
Then he strode out and walked into the man's sight, looking very innocent.
"Manager Li?"
The middle-aged man called Manager Li suddenly relaxed his vigilant expression. After a moment of confusion, he quickly recognized him and said, "Is it Mr. Zhou? Why are you here?" He quickly extended his hand.
Zhou Liangqi played with the car keys in his hand and shook hands with him casually. "I came to the hospital for a physical examination. I didn't recognize you just now. I thought you looked familiar. I didn't expect that you were actually an acquaintance."
Manager Li's smile became even more exaggerated, and his guard was no longer on his side. "I made a mistake. I didn't expect to see Mr. Zhou here. I think we only met once. I didn't expect to be remembered. It's really an honor."
Zhou Liangqi looked at the Mercedes behind him and said, "Manager Li has a good family background." He raised his lip and said, "It seems the Huo family is treating you well."
Manager Li became a little embarrassed and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
"Manager Li is here at the hospital?"
"...I'm here with my relatives, and I'm also here for a health check."
Zhou Liangqi nodded politely, not wanting to exchange pleasantries with him any further. He took a step back and said, "Then I'll go first."
"Okay, okay."
Manager Li nodded and bowed in a very servile manner, staring at Zhou Liangqi's back as he left, and even stood on tiptoe to take a few more glances to make sure he was not mistaken.
That shouldn't be the case. The identity of that person shouldn't be concealed by someone like Zhou Liangqi. Maybe I really saw it wrong.
His Mercedes Benz drove out of the parking lot, and Jian Mo breathed a sigh of relief. She had never expected Zhou Liangqi to appear here, nor did she expect him to come to her rescue. She gestured anxiously, "That man, that man is Huo's HR manager!"
Zhou Liangqi leaned lazily against the car door, "I know this."
Jian Mo stuttered. There were many matters of concern that she couldn't explain to him. For example, why was Manager Li with Song Ke? Were they together? But the Huo family forbade office romances, let alone someone with a bad record like Song Ke. If they were together, was Manager Li involved in her car accident?
These are so important.
Jian Mo hated that the person in front of her was not Huo Qi Chen.
"Ms. Jian, even if the deal fails, we still have friendship. I helped you today, and you won't thank me?" Zhou Liangqi pointed at the car, full of amusement.
"Thank you." Jian Mo came back to her senses, "But Mr. Zhou, I have more important things to do. Let's talk another day."
She was about to chase him out, but as soon as she took a step, he grabbed her arm and said, "Take my car."
Jian Mo curled the corners of her mouth.
Zhou Liangqi was a flamboyant driver who preferred sports cars. His blue Maserati attracted a lot of attention as he drove down the street. She felt uneasy in the passenger seat, thinking of Huo Qichen, who seemed to prefer a low profile. He always drove a Porsche for work, and only a sports car for personal matters.
He drove fast and soon caught up with Manager Li's Mercedes, surprising Jian Mo. "Boss Zhou, how did you know they were taking this road?"
Zhou Liangqi steered the car without answering directly: "Can you call me Liangqi?"
