Reality Side Story 1: A New Boss



Beside the hospital bed, the electrocardiogram monitor emitted rhythmic sounds, and the small, plain white hand on the bed twitched.

The woman who was wiping the back of her hand was startled. She rubbed her eyes in disbelief and saw the person on the bed tremble her eyelashes.

The next second, she slowly opened her eyes.

Having been in a deep sleep for too long, Su Ping felt uncomfortable from the bright light overhead and frowned involuntarily.

"Pingping?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice beside her, Su Ping couldn't help but shed tears.

Before she could see the woman's face clearly, the woman pounced on her and hugged her tightly.

The woman gently stroked her face with her fingers, sobbing uncontrollably as well.

Su Ping opened her mouth and stared blankly for a long time before finding her voice.

"mom……"

The feeling of being in another world finally made her burst into tears.

Startled, Su's mother quickly released her, asking, "What happened? Did I hurt you?"

Su Ping shook her head, hugged her again, and choked out, "No, it's just that I haven't seen you in so long, and I missed you."

More than a year has passed since she was in a car accident and bound to the system in the book, and she thought she would never come back.

The news that Su Ping had regained consciousness immediately became a trending topic in the city.

The ward was soon filled with doctors, nurses, and interns in white coats.

Su Ping felt like she had entered a zoo, being stared at by those people all morning.

Finally, after all the test results came out, it showed that there were no major problems with her health.

The doctor stared at the test results in his hand and exclaimed that it was a medical miracle.

After all, someone who would never wake up in this lifetime is now sitting up in bed perfectly fine.

A week later, Su Ping and her mother were discharged from the hospital and returned home.

As Su's mother turned to open the door, Su Ping had already walked past her and entered the room.

"Pingping, be careful not to fall..."

Hearing her mother's instructions behind her, Su Ping responded and went upstairs.

After lying in bed for so long, my limbs are noticeably less coordinated than before.

After washing up and lying in bed at night, my phone rang.

"Sister Ping, after hearing that you've woken up, the boss asked for your address and said he wants to come visit you in person..."

Her colleague Xiao Yang's voice came through the receiver, but she couldn't hear what was said next.

The boss came to visit her in person?

Su Ping was immediately devastated. She had been killed because she witnessed her boss and secretary having an affair.

I suspect the visit was just a pretense; their real intention was to silence him!

She hung up the phone in a daze, so much so that she didn't hear what Xiao Yang said next.

"I forgot to tell you, the company's former boss was forced to step down last week due to his divorce, and it has now been acquired by a large corporation..."

The next morning, Su's mother prepared the meal and prepared to go upstairs to call Su Ping for breakfast.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw the blankets neatly folded inside; they had apparently left sometime earlier.

"Why aren't you resting properly after being discharged from the hospital? Where did you sneak off to?"

Just as I was muttering to myself, the doorbell rang downstairs.

Su's mother thought her daughter had gone out without her keys, so she quickly went to open the door.

He muttered to himself, "You little rascal, so early in the morning..."

After seeing the man outside the door, she swallowed all the words she was about to say.

Outside the door stood a tall, slender man in an expensive custom-made suit. The top button of his shirt was fastened tightly, and the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose gave him an air of refined elegance.

After staring at the man for a few seconds, Su's mother snapped out of her daze, blinked, and asked with some confusion, "Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"

The man lowered his eyes to conceal the turmoil within: "Isn't she home?"

she?

Su's mother realized that the man was talking about Pingping, shook her head and said, "He went out early this morning. I'll call you and ask when he'll be back."

Before she could take out her phone, the man smiled and shook his head.

"It's okay, there will be plenty of opportunities to meet in the future."

Su's mother paused, then heard the man continue, "Auntie, I came in a hurry today, I'll visit you another day."

After saying that, the man turned and left.

The sunlight shone on him, making him look like a male protagonist in a movie, bathed in golden light.

Meanwhile, Su Ping and her friend were sitting in a milk tea shop enjoying the air conditioning.

From the moment they met, her friend Pei Xin stared at her with a puzzled look on her face.

Su Ping felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

She was in a rush when she left this morning, so maybe she didn't wash her face properly?

Thinking of this, she touched her face, but Pei Xin cupped her face and made her unable to move.

Something's not right...

Hearing her muttering to herself, Su Ping slapped her hand away, but the next second she heard her continue talking.

"I think you look better now. Come on, tell me honestly, did you get plastic surgery on your face while you were in the hospital?"

Upon hearing this, Su Ping was taken aback.

Is this an effect of transmigrating into a book? But I can no longer hear the voices of the Calabash Brothers in my mind.

It all felt like a dream, including those men...

Thinking of those people, Su Ping quickly shook her head to suppress the thoughts in her mind.

It's good as it is now. I'm healthy, and my mom and friends are by my side.

She dawdled until evening before finally going home.

Just as she opened the door, Su's mother came out of the kitchen carrying a pot of soup.

"Where did you go so early in the morning without saying a word? Go wash your hands and come eat."

Su Ping responded and had just sat down when she heard her mother say across from her, "By the way, a man came to the house looking for you this morning..."

Upon hearing this, Su Ping paused for a moment and tentatively asked, "Did he say something?"

Unexpectedly, Su's mother shook her head: "She didn't say anything..."

Then, changing the subject, she said, "But that man was quite handsome, like a movie star."

Hearing her mother's praise, Su Ping choked for a moment, almost dropping the bowl from her hand onto the table.

handsome?

The image of the bald, greasy male boss, who was less than 1.6 meters tall, involuntarily appeared in her mind.

Just thinking about it gave her goosebumps all over.

Finally, she sighed and looked at Su's mother, who was still praising the man to herself, and realized that she should arrange a time to take her mother to see an eye doctor.

Running away wasn't a solution, and the next morning Su Ping received a message from the company's HR department the night before.

To compensate her, the company's senior management promoted her to department team leader and more than doubled her salary.

Just as she was about to reluctantly refuse to resign, she noticed that the boss's name was the only surname listed.

Sink?

For some reason, seeing that familiar surname made her heart skip a beat.

When did the company change owners?

The next second, I saw a new message from my colleague.

"If there are no problems, be at the company on time tomorrow. The new boss is making his first appearance and all employees are required to be present."

the next day……

Su Ping murmured to herself for a moment, then belatedly realized that it was today!
