Chapter 243: Victory lies in the end



Zhou Juanjuan happened to have to work overtime in the evening. After finishing the work at hand, she felt a little bored staying in the duty room, so she said goodbye to her colleagues and walked out.

"Going to see your old classmate again?" Her colleague, who was a little older than her, looked up when he heard that she was leaving and teased, "You seem so concerned about her, could it be your old lover?"

"You'll die if you don't say a few bad things about me. Don't let his girlfriend hear it, or I'll be in trouble." Zhou Juanjuan cursed with a smile and walked towards the ward where Chen Xu was.

It was late at night, and the inpatient department was exceptionally quiet. Most of the lights in the corridors were turned off, and the lights in the wards were also turned off. She put her hands in her pockets, looking very relaxed. She had long been accustomed to such an environment.

As she walked, she thought about this old classmate. She had asked his attending physician, and his condition was somewhat special. He had no external injuries, nor did he seem to have any lesions, and his cerebral cortex was particularly active, but he just couldn't wake up. The doctor also temporarily determined his current condition. He could only be observed for the time being.

If he doesn't wake up tomorrow, we'll give him a more detailed full body examination.

"Nurse."

Suddenly, a woman's voice came from behind her, which startled her. Turning around, she saw a strange woman who was wearing sunglasses and a hat in the middle of the night. As for the mask, it was not strange.

"Excuse me, how do I get to Ward 702?"

The woman's tone was quite polite, so Zhou Juanjuan didn't take it too seriously and said, "Come with me. Also, it's midnight now, the patient needs to rest, don't shout too loudly."

"Oh, I'm so sorry." The woman lowered her voice.

Zhou Juanjuan stopped talking and walked towards Ward 702. Coincidentally, Chen Xu was in that ward.

They walked to the end of the corridor, and the second to last room was 702.

Before Zhou Juanjuan could say anything, the strange woman had already walked in. From her anxious movements, one could guess that there must be someone inside that she cared about.

The information of three patients flashed through her mind. She dealt with patients every day and was very familiar with them.

Suddenly, a thought popped into her mind, "Could it be that guy?"

She walked into the ward. There was no light on, only a faint light in front of Chen Xu's bed. The woman who came in with her, still wearing sunglasses and a hat in the middle of the night, was standing there.

“It’s really him.”

Zhou Juanjuan sighed in her heart, Chen Xu's popularity with women is really terrifying, there are already three beautiful women surrounding him, and now there's another one.

I just don't know what this newcomer's relationship is to him, or what he looks like.

She thought about it and didn't go in, but just waited at the door.

…………

On the other side, when Secretary Jin saw Bai Jinxuan, he was stunned. Although she was wearing sunglasses and a mask, he subconsciously felt that it should be her.

She never expected that Bai Jinxuan would really show up, and then she realized that she had made a huge mistake. Her former boss's lover could be said to be a kept man. But if Chen Xu and Bai Jinxuan were really in a kept relationship, it could only be the other way around.

She had just sent the hospital and bed number to tell the other party that Chen Xu was indeed in the hospital and it was not a fabrication. Her boss had been exposed by his lover for lying before, which caused a lot of chaos.

So, when Bai Jinxuan asked Chen Xu if he was in the hospital, she thought that the other party must be checking up on him, so she sent him the address.

But I never expected that she would come overnight.

Isn't she afraid of being discovered by reporters?

Isn't she afraid of bumping into Chen Xu's girlfriend? Secretary Jin was really caught off guard. She stood up from her chair and didn't know how to address her.

Bai Jinxuan walked to the bed and squatted, holding one of Chen Xu's hands, took off his sunglasses, looked at his face infatuatedly, stretched out one hand, and stroked it gently.

When Secretary Jin saw her actions, he felt a little anxious. Luo Xiyun might come back at any time. If he saw this scene, how would he end it?

She could only walk closer to block the view from the door, and whispered, "His girlfriend should be back soon."

Bai Jinxuan seemed not to hear her words, and asked, "How long has he been unconscious?"

Secretary Kim said, "From this morning till now."

"You haven't woken up yet?"

"No."

"What did the doctor say?"

"I'm here for the night patrol." Zhou Juanjuan explained, took a look into the ward, and left.

Secretary Jin was a little worried at first, but then she thought that Bai Jinxuan had been wearing sunglasses and a mask, so she should not be able to recognize him, so she felt relieved.

Then, she couldn't help but sigh. She originally thought she had a perfect boss, who had no other shortcomings except for his slightly insufficient ability. Fortunately, he knew how to listen to others' opinions and learned quickly. Most importantly, she had encountered a great opportunity and had the foundation for taking off.

But I didn't expect that his love life would be so rich. Luo Xiyun was not enough, and he actually had an affair with a big star like Bai Jinxuan. What's more terrifying is that he also got involved with Yang Jinxia.

Now that Chen Xu was unconscious, the three women almost collided with each other, and she had to deal with this rotten paralytic.

No, we need to give him a raise.

She thought bitterly in her heart.

…………

In the ward, Bai Jinxuan held Chen Xu's hand and whispered, "Can you hear me? It's me. I'm here to see you. I was so worried when I heard that something happened to you. I hope you're okay. It took me a lot of effort to find you..."

"We are so busy that we don't even have time to meet in person. We can only communicate through video calls. Even if you already have a girlfriend, I can accept it because I know that I can't be with you openly."

"But I have been working hard, and I believe that one day, I can get rid of all the constraints. Then, no one can stop us."

"I'm not afraid of competing with anyone. I'm not afraid of anything..."

"You must wake up soon."

She held his hand, put it in front of her nose, closed her eyes, and spoke in a very soft voice.

After a while, she opened her eyes again and said, "I have to go. Fang Fang is still waiting for me. If I don't go down, she will be worried. I will stay here for the next few days. I will definitely come back to see you."

After saying that, she put his hand back in place, put on her sunglasses again, stood up, looked at Chen Xu deeply, turned around and walked out.

After leaving the ward, she saw Secretary Jin. She recognized her just now. This was the woman who lived next door to her. Chen Xu had mentioned to her that she was his employee. Later, she saw her through the peephole several times and remembered her appearance.

She said sincerely, "Thank you, I'll trouble you to take care of him."

"This is my duty," Secretary Jin said politely.

"Well, I'll go first." Bai Jinxuan said, turned his head to look inside the ward, and walked back the way he came.

When she was almost at the stairs, she heard footsteps around the corner and saw a woman coming towards her. At just one glance, she subconsciously thought that this was Chen Xu's girlfriend.

She has a flawless face, a tall figure, and a dazzling temperament. A new dress of a luxury brand looks better on her than on a model.

Even though Bai Jinxuan was fully confident in himself, he couldn't help but waver a little when he saw her for the first time. No wonder Chen Xu couldn't forget her, she was really beautiful.

With these thoughts in her mind, she passed by the woman.

Soon, she adjusted herself to the situation. Matters concerning the relationship are hard to explain. Being pretty doesn't always help. Maybe they broke up because of some trivial thing?

The one who can make it to the end is the winner.

…………

When Luo Xiyun called Chen Xu's parents, he had already booked a room in a nearby hotel. After sending them there, he quickly rushed back to the hospital.

Just as she got out of the elevator, she passed a strange woman at the corner. She subconsciously looked back and saw that she had already walked into the elevator. She felt a little weird.

However, this feeling only flashed by, and she didn't think much about it. She hurried to the ward and asked Secretary Jin to go back first. She accompanied him personally.

After Secretary Jin left, she was left alone. After being busy all day, she felt sleepy. She fell asleep while sitting on the edge of the bed. In the middle of the night, she woke up. Her arms were numb from being pressed against the bed. She slept very uncomfortably, so she simply took off her shoes and lay down on the bed.

The bed was not big, but Chen Xu was not fat, so she lay on her side and had just enough space. To prevent herself from falling, she hugged his arms tightly, clung to him, looked at his face, and whispered, "Good night." She closed her eyes and soon fell asleep.
