Chapter 16 Chapter 16 The Other Side of the Cold-Faced Demon King
After saying this, Fu Zhiyao completely lost his strength, closed his eyes, and fell on Yu Wan without hesitation, causing Yu Wan's tailbone to suffer another severe injury.
She grimaced in pain, but at the same time her rationality returned and she realized that now was not the time to call the emergency number.
Today is the 30th anniversary celebration of the Xingyue Hotel. There are many media reporters coming to the hotel. If the ambulance arrives at the hotel, those media will swarm in like flies and make the story of the boss being drugged a hot topic, which is definitely not what the boss wants.
But in the boss's condition, Yu Wan had to send him to the hospital.
After figuring out what to do, Yu Wan's small body burst out with infinite strength, and she forcibly lifted the big guy Fu Zhiyao up from the ground.
Fu Zhiyao didn't react at all, closing his eyes in pain. The weight of his strong body pressed down on Yu Wan. Yu Wan staggered a few times and barely stood firm, with his head tucked under Fu Zhiyao's arms, supported by his iron head technique.
Turning around with Fu Zhiyao, Yu Wan saw Song Chuchu standing not far away.
She was wearing a sparkling white dress, her long black hair half-tied up, revealing her delicate and pretty face. Her expression was bewildered and confused as she cautiously called out Yu Wan's name, "Yu Wan... What's wrong with Mr. Fu? Do you need help?"
Yu Wan no longer had the heart to care about the so-called plot of the novel, nor did she want to ask why Song Chuchu appeared in the corridor above the banquet hall.
She looked at Song Chuchu and said firmly, "I do have something to trouble you with. Go to the lobby and find Secretary Cai from the President's Office, or Director Dong from your Administration Department, and tell them that President Fu is drunk and can't speak on stage at the end of the celebration. See if you can find another director to take over. I'll take the boss to the lounge. Is that okay with you?"
Song Chuchu's gaze stayed on Fu Zhiyao.
He lowered his head slightly, and the light in the corridor was not bright, so she could not see Fu Zhiyao's expression clearly, but his cheeks were obviously red and there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead. He looked a little like he was drunk, but not quite, which made her feel confused.
"Song Chuchu." Yu Wan repeated Song Chuchu's name, pulling her back to her thoughts: "Can you do what I just said?"
Song Chuchu came back to her senses: "Oh, okay, no problem, but are you strong enough? Do you need my help?"
Yu Wan shook her head. "No need. Just go downstairs and find Secretary Cai. Thank you for your help."
Yu Wan supported Fu Zhiyao and turned to leave, but Song Chuchu did not move until Yu Wan and Fu Zhiyao disappeared from her sight.
She actually didn't understand why she came to the upper floor of the banquet hall, but it seemed as if someone was guiding her here.
So, here she comes.
Besides Fu Zhiyao, there was another person she didn't expect to see, Yu Wan.
Just as Song Chuchu was about to go back to find Director Dong, she saw a familiar face. She walked over quickly and said to the man in surprise, "Brother Juefeng! Why are you here?"
The tall man's face emerged from the shadows, his handsome and gentle face exposed under the light. He looked at Song Chuchu with a gentle and gentlemanly smile on his face.
"Just like you, I'll do whatever you do."
"Brother Juefeng, you still love to joke around, but I seem to have gone to the wrong floor. The banquet hall is on the fifth floor, and I'm on the sixth. Let's go down together."
The man did not refuse and entered the nearest elevator with Song Chuchu. The elevator door slowly closed, blocking out the man's gloomy eyes.
Yu Wan took Fu Zhiyao into the employee elevator and called the driver, Lao Wu, in the elevator to confirm that Master Wu was in the parking lot. She asked him to put on a mask and a hat and come to pick up Fu Zhiyao.
Lao Wu arrived quickly. Seeing Fu Zhiyao's expression, he became panicked. "Secretary Yu, what's going on with Mr. Fu...?"
Yu Wan took the clean mask and hat from Lao Wu and put them on Fu Zhiyao's face neatly, covering his sharp jawline and deep eyebrows. After making sure that the boss's face could not be photographed, she put the other mask on herself.
Yu Wan said, "Uncle Wu, get in the car first. We'll talk after you get in."
Lao Wu knew this was not the place to talk, so he looked around warily. "Okay, I'll help Mr. Fu go first. Secretary Yu, please keep an eye out for paparazzi with cameras."
"Well, Uncle Wu, please help Mr. Fu and be careful on the road ahead."
Yu Wan walked behind the two of them, always paying attention to the surrounding situation. Perhaps because of the banquet, there were not many people in the parking lot. In addition, the Xingyue Hotel had sufficient security, so no paparazzi suddenly rushed up to take pictures. The three of them got into the car smoothly.
Yu Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief. While fastening Fu Zhiyao's seat belt, she explained to Lao Wu, "Mr. Fu's drink was drugged. We need to take him to the hospital now. Uncle Wu, could you please drive faster?"
Lao Wu has worked with President Fu for nearly ten years. He is loyal, conscientious and responsible in his work, and he doesn't drink on weekdays. It can be said that Lao Wu is Fu Zhiyao's confidant.
Therefore, Yu Wan did not hide what happened to Fu Zhiyao.
Old Wu was startled, but without stopping, he quickly turned the car key and set off: "Okay, Secretary Yu, please take good care of Mr. Fu. We'll leave now."
"Um."
After the car drove out of the underground parking lot, Yu Wan took out his cell phone and called Secretary Cai.
What he said to Song Chuchu just now was partly a lie to protect the boss's privacy. Since the boss had clearly said that he was going to the hospital, it was hard to say whether Song Chuchu's participation in helping would cause any complications. Yu Wan didn't dare to bet on the probability. The other part was to really trouble Song Chuchu to inform Secretary Cai, so that Secretary Cai would not find out that the boss had disappeared and think too much.
It was also at this time that Yu Wan suddenly remembered what her boss said before he fainted: You are hiding something from me.
She was indeed hiding something from her boss, but traveling into the world of a novel was too fantastical. Would her boss believe it?
While he was thinking, his phone rang. Yu Wan came back to his senses and told Secretary Cai about his boss's current situation.
Yu Wan asked him, "Secretary Cai, Uncle Wu is driving to the private hospital where the boss goes for regular treatment. I'll call you if there's anything else. Do we need to inform the boss's family?"
Yu Wan knew that Fu Zhiyao's parents died in a car accident, and that his grandmother and sister were the only relatives left at home. However, since something happened to his boss, he should contact his family to come to the hospital.
"No need, Yu Wan. Uncle Wu knows the most discreet way to get to the hospital. Just listen to him. Secretary Shang and I will handle the celebration. Once I get to the hospital, I'll have Uncle Wu take you back to school. In the meantime, you'll have to take care of the boss."
Yu Wan: "Secretary Cai, don't worry, I know."
Secretary Cai paused for two seconds and then continued, "Yu Wan, you should have some understanding of the boss's family background. He doesn't want his family to worry. When the boss wakes up, he'll make his own judgment."
After hanging up the phone, Yu Wan looked at Fu Zhiyao who was standing beside her.
Fu Zhiyao closed his eyes, his brows were tightly furrowed, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, his black hair was wet and stuck to his temples, his face was unusually rosy, but his lips were pale with a suppressed look. Because of the effect of the medicine, his dark eyelashes could not help but tremble, like the fragile wings of a butterfly, as if they would perish in the next second.
This is another side of him that is different from the usual cold-faced devil.
Yu Wan took a clean towel, poured some mineral water on it, and turned sideways to wipe the sweat off Fu Zhiyao's forehead.
The mineral water had been frozen in the refrigerator, and he keenly noticed it almost the moment it touched Fu Zhiyao's forehead.
With a snap.
The large, hot palm firmly grasped Yu Wan's thin wrist, preventing her from moving further.
Fu Zhiyao opened his deep, dark eyes, and when he saw that it was Yu Wan, he slowly loosened his grip and opened his mouth, his voice hoarse: "...What do you want to do?"
Yu Wan was startled and a little nervous. She said, "Boss, your forehead is covered in sweat. I thought I'd wet a towel with ice mineral water and wipe it off for you. Would that make you feel better?"
Fu Zhiyao closed his eyes again and responded softly in his throat. Yu Wan carefully wiped the towel across Fu Zhiyao's forehead and cheeks. The skin cooled down quickly where the ice water touched, but it didn't take long for it to heat up again. It was better than nothing. Yu Wan wiped carefully and noticed that Fu Zhiyao was not leaning comfortably, so she put a small pillow behind him.
During this time, Fu Zhiyao opened his eyes and saw only the profile of Yu Wan who was carefully soaking the towel. He turned his head and tried to distract himself, but his sight involuntarily turned to Yu Wan. The neon lights outside the car window passed over the girl's face, which was as quiet as a pool of spring water.
When they arrived at the hospital, unlike the cumbersome process that Yu Wan had imagined, which involved queuing up to register, pay fees, see a doctor, and undergo examinations, Fu Zhiyao was directly pushed into the VIP ward. The ward was a small suite with a living room, bathroom, and kitchen, and was even neater and more beautiful than a small apartment.
Fu Zhiyao didn't even have to move. He lay on the comfortable and soft bed and received a one-stop service including blood drawing and test. Finally, Dr. Zhou injected him with a sedative. Fu Zhiyao's tense expression gradually relaxed, and he seemed to fall asleep.
Leaving Lao Wu in the ward to look after Fu Zhiyao, Yu Wan followed Dr. Zhou to the office to find out the details and wrote down Dr. Zhou's instructions firmly in the memo on his mobile phone.
By the time Secretary Cai arrived at the hospital, Yu Wan had already sorted out the whole story in his mind and explained it to Secretary Cai one by one.
Secretary Cai pondered, "That means you weren't with the boss when he drank the drugged wine, so you don't know who drugged him."
Yu Wan nodded, feeling somewhat guilty: "It's all my fault. If I had stayed with the boss the whole time, this wouldn't have happened."
Moreover, if Zhao Yushu had not spilled the red wine on her skirt, she would not have gone to the bathroom on the upper floor. If she had not gone to the bathroom, she naturally would not have met the boss.
Then, just like the original novel, the boss will meet the heroine Song Chuchu...
But is this what the boss wants?
Yu Wan could be sure that it wasn't.
Because the first thing the boss said when he saw her was to send him to the hospital. If he wanted to have sex with someone, why would he say such a thing? Under the influence of drugs, his rationality has been completely burned out. Will he still pay attention to who is in front of him? Will he still restrain his emotional outburst?
It was what happened tonight that made Yu Wan realize that the plot of the novel was not fixed. From the moment she entered this world, she could no longer look at others as a bystander. Everyone was a living person, not a puppet controlled by the plot.
Secretary Cai: "That's not the truth. No one wants something like this to happen. There's no point in blaming yourself. However, the way you handled the emergency tonight was excellent. You knew to contact Lao Wu and me, and you knew to leave through the employee passage, avoiding the media and reporters. You're even better than when I first started."
Yu Wan knew that Secretary Cai was trying to comfort her, so she tried hard to force a smile.
Secretary Cai patted Yu Wan's shoulder and said, "Okay, it's getting late. Let Lao Wu take you back to school. I'm here, so don't worry. Remember to send me a message to let me know you're safe when you get to school."
Yu Wan nodded, "Yes, thank you for troubling Secretary Cai."
After all, she was a woman, and it would not look good if the news got out that she stayed to take care of the boss. She sent a copy of the precautions to Secretary Cai and got into Lao Wu's car to return to school.
