It was late at night and only the bedside lamp was on in the room. Thick curtains blocked the windows tightly, leaving no gaps.

A slow prelude came from the speakers on both sides of the bed, the sound was very soft. There was a sound of dripping water in the direction of the bathroom, obviously someone was taking a shower inside.

After a while, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped, the door opened, and Bai Jinxuan came out wrapped in a white bathrobe, his hair still wet.

She had a towel on her shoulder for drying her hair. She walked straight to the bed, picked up the phone on the pillow, unlocked it, and a hint of disappointment appeared on her flushed face. "Why haven't you replied to the message yet?"

She and Chen Xu would have a video chat every few days, and they would always make an appointment in advance. If they needed to cancel due to something urgent or inconvenient, they would make it known in advance.

Just now, at the appointed time, she sent a video invitation, but Chen Xu didn't answer. After waiting for more than ten seconds, she took the initiative to cancel it, fearing that he was not convenient.

After a while, I sent another WeChat message to ask him if it was inconvenient.

Still no reply.

She waited for a while and decided to take a shower. Now she came out of the shower and still hadn't responded. She couldn't help but get worried. She thought, "Is there anything wrong?"

When she was looking at her phone, she lowered her head, and drops of water fell from her wet hair onto the screen.

"Why."

She quickly pulled out a tissue from the bedside table, wiped the water off the phone screen, walked to the mirror with the phone, put the phone on the dressing table, and wiped the water off her hair with a towel.

Then, she picked up the hair dryer and started to blow dry her hair, but her eyes couldn't help but look towards her phone. She shook her head and said to herself, "He must have something urgent. We can't disturb him."

Just as I was thinking about it, the phone on the table vibrated and the screen lit up.

She quickly turned off the hair dryer and picked up her phone. It was indeed his message. She looked carefully and the joy on her face froze and gradually turned into worry.

This WeChat message was not replied by Chen Xu, but by his assistant, who explained that Chen Xu was ill and could not contact her now.

"Sure enough, something happened."

Her heart tightened a little. The message was very brief and did not mention what the illness was, but she knew it was definitely not a common cold or fever or some other minor illness. Otherwise, he would never let his assistant reply to the WeChat message for him.

Given Chen Xu's personality, he would definitely not let anyone know about her affairs.

"Something must have happened. Could it be..."

In an instant, words like car accident and accident popped up in her mind. Her face turned pale. She picked up her phone and typed, "Did something happen to him? Is it serious? Is his life in danger?"

After sending the message, she held the phone to her chest and prayed, "Please don't let anything happen."

After a while, the other party replied, "It's not that serious. The doctor said he just fainted due to overwork. He just needs to rest for a few days."

"Thank God."

She felt relieved, and with her mood fluctuating, she wanted to fly to his side. She thought about it, picked up her phone and sent a WeChat message, "Is he hospitalized? Which hospital is he in?"

This time, it wasn't until a few minutes later that the other party responded, with the name of the hospital, the ward, and the bed.

"He's really in the hospital."

She stood up, her face changed several times, and as if she had made up her mind, she picked up the phone and made a call, "Fang Fang, help me prepare a car."

…………

Half an hour later, Fang Fang pushed the door open and walked in. She saw Bai Jinxuan had changed his clothes, was wearing sunglasses and a hat, and holding a mask in his hand, looking ready to go out at any time.

"He is in the hospital and I want to go see him." Bai Jinxuan said as he put on a mask and walked out the door.

Fang Fang couldn't help but sigh. Knowing that she couldn't persuade him, she didn't want to waste her breath and followed him from behind.

In order to conceal her whereabouts, Fang Fang drove another car this time, which was registered in the name of Bai Jinxuan's mother, so as not to attract attention. It was already twelve o'clock in the morning, and there would probably be no paparazzi squatting outside the gate of the community.

This time, there were only the two of them, Fang Fang was driving and Bai Jinxuan was sitting in the back seat. There were fewer cars in the early morning. Fang Fang was very cautious and kept an eye out for any suspicious cars behind her.

After arriving at the hospital and parking the car, Bai Jinxuan straightened his mask and said, "I can go there by myself. You wait for me in the car."

"But..." Fang Fang became anxious when she heard her say that.

"Don't worry, this is a hospital and there won't be any reporters here. I'll be back soon." She said, opened the car door, got out, and trotted towards the inpatient department.

When entering the hospital, Fang Fang asked about the location of the inpatient department.

Fang Fang also opened the car door and got out, chasing after him. No matter what, she couldn't let Bai Jinxuan out of her sight, otherwise, if something happened, she would have no way to explain.

…………

Secretary Jin sent Bai Jinxuan the name of the hospital, the ward number and the bed, and reminded him that someone was taking care of Chen Xu. Then, he deleted the chat history.

After thinking about it, she put the phone back into her bag, to prevent that person from sending her another message and causing Luo Xiyun to see it and become suspicious.

In her opinion, helping the boss solve life's troubles is also part of the job.

Before, she was able to gain the support of her former boss in a short period of time and become his most important secretary, not only because of her outstanding work ability.

Her former boss also had a lover outside, but few people knew about it. She was responsible for selecting gifts and sending them to Valentine's Day and other important days.

She also despised such behavior in her heart, but work is work, and the competition in the workplace is very fierce. She knows that only by doing better can she keep her position. Therefore, she kept her work and personal affairs separate.

Of course, she was not without bottom line. The reason why she left her original job and boss and chose to follow Luo Xiyun, who had just started working, was because she could not accept some of the practices of her former boss.

After she decided to follow Chen Xu, at first, she did not intend to interfere too much in his life and positioned herself as an assistant.

However, she couldn't ignore this matter. The emotional entanglement between Chen Xu, Luo Xiyun and Yang Jinxia was already a headache. The identities of these two women were more terrifying than the other. It was no exaggeration to say that if they turned from love to hate, it would only take a few minutes to destroy Chen Xu's career.

Now, the relationship between Luo Xiyun and Yang Jinxia is tense, and even Luo Zhenghai has come forward. If Chen Xu's parents hadn't arrived in time, these two big shots might have torn their faces apart. At that time, it is hard to say what will happen.

Thinking of the scene just now, she still trembled a little.

If another Bai Jinxuan came at this time...

She couldn't even imagine it.

For the sake of Chen Xu's career, and also for her own career, she also has to appease the other party.

She didn't know Bai Jinxuan at all, but she had experience. It happened that her former boss's lover was a little star. That was really a tough guy. If her former boss didn't do what he promised, he would definitely not give in and make a big fuss.

In her opinion, Bai Jinxuan was so popular that he must have a worse temper. Therefore, she told the other party directly about Chen Xu's current situation to prevent her from making a fuss.

It was not until forty minutes later that she saw a woman wearing a mask and sunglasses walk in and come to the bedside, and then she realized that her judgment was wrong.
