"Expulsion?"
Qin Chuan was stunned for a moment. The image of Huo Yishuo's unconcealed nervousness when he saw him last night flashed through his mind. He subconsciously said with certainty, "How could that be? Absolutely not."
Lin Zhenzhen looked up at him with some confusion.
Qin Chuan coughed twice: "A large company like Kangkong pays great attention to humanistic care. As long as no major mistakes are made, employees will not be easily dismissed."
Lin Zhenzhen shook her head and said softly, "But I didn't finish the work on time, which is a big mistake. Director Luo will definitely be very angry."
Qin Chuan comforted him, "It's okay, it's just a health issue, we can understand. Besides, you've already done your best by working so late."
Lin Zhenzhen seemed genuinely comforted by his words, and a smile finally appeared on her face.
The crying just wouldn't stop for a while; she was still sniffling and her head was trembling slightly, like a wronged little lamb, so endearing.
Qin Chuan also softened his tone: "The most important thing for you right now is to control your emotions and not get agitated."
He paused for a moment, then said, "As for Huo Yeshuo, don't worry, I'll talk to him."
After Qin Chuan left, Lin Zhenzhen closed her eyes and rested for a while. A few minutes later, a nurse came in to take her for a check-up.
With her head and chest covered in red and green instruments, Lin Zhenzhen lay down as instructed and was then taken into a white metal cabin.
[Don't worry, host, I've taken care of everything. The final test results are definitely different from those of a normal person.]
After saying this, the system even made an OK sign with pursed lips in her mind.
[...] A bad feeling inexplicably rose in Lin Zhenzhen's heart.
Sure enough, the next second, a gasp came from the small room next door, separated by thick glass: "How, how could this be?"
"Go and call Dr. Qin over here quickly!"
Lin Zhenzhen's eyes widened. What was going on?
The system sheepishly wiped its forehead: 【Oops! It seems I set the numerical deviation a bit too high. No worries, I'll fix it right away!】
Lin Zhenzhen was speechless.
What a useless teammate who's good for nothing but causing trouble; she keeps pushing the boundaries of what's acceptable.
Soon, the person who ran out returned with a group of people.
Upon seeing the computer screen, Qin Chuan immediately became so angry that he smacked the person next to him on the head a few times.
"Isn't this fine? It's just that these two values are a little high, but they're within a controllable range. It's not as exaggerated as you're making it out to be."
"But just now really..."
"Impossible! Even if the King of Heaven himself came, it wouldn't be possible, unless it's an alien!"
Qin Chuan wanted to teach this kid a lesson again, but his gaze suddenly fell on the tall figure beside him.
"Ye Shuo, why did you come along? Is your aunt already asleep?"
"Hmm." Huo Yeshuo responded lightly, turning his head to look at the other side of the transparent glass.
Qin Chuan patted his shoulder heavily: "Don't worry, don't you know my medical skills?"
Huo Yeshuo glared at him coldly: "Who said I was worried?" He then turned and walked out of the examination room.
Qin Chuan chased after him: "Hey, you bastard, if you weren't worried, why did you stay by his side for hours after sending him to the hospital?"
"If you weren't worried, why did you come running over as soon as you heard someone's name, and now that you see everything's alright, you pretend to be indifferent and turn away?"
Qin Chuan got more and more excited as he spoke: "Speaking the truth isn't illegal, so why are you always saying one thing and meaning another? You always have that grumpy face, it's so scary!"
"You don't know, the first thing that little girl did when she woke up was to grab me and cry, saying that she was going to be fired by the company because she hadn't finished her work. She was crying so hard, it was really pitiful to see her like that."
Huo Yeshuo suddenly stopped in his tracks: "Did she tell you this?"
"Ah, that's right." Qin Chuan quickly added when he saw that the girl's expression was off. "The girl is very innocent. She was just complaining to me. She didn't mean anything by it."
Huo Yeshuo didn't say anything more. He walked to the rest area, sat down, and took out his phone, which had been vibrating non-stop since the beginning.
Several missed calls, and countless text messages from Luo Meng.
Huo Yeshuo deleted all unread messages, then opened the chat box and typed: "Come to my office for a meeting tomorrow morning at nine o'clock."
"Mr. Huo."
Huo Yeshuo looked up in response.
The girl stood not far away, the blue and white striped hospital gown covering her looking so empty, as if a gust of wind could blow her over.
Her voice was very soft, with a slight, almost imperceptible tremor.
Huo Yeshuo immediately thought of what Qin Chuan had just said: that she was very afraid of him.
The thought only lasted a second before he rejected it.
If she were truly afraid of me, she wouldn't have repeatedly taken the initiative to approach me and start a conversation.
She dared to provoke me; she's clearly very bold.
“Aya Zhen”.
Lin Zhenzhen stopped in her tracks. If she remembered correctly, this was the first time Huo Yeshuo had called her name.
Here's your phone back.
Huo Yeshuo stretched out his arm, and in his palm lay a phone with its screen shattered into pieces.
Lin Zhenzhen looked up and exclaimed in surprise.
She extended both hands and accepted it respectfully and carefully: "Thank you."
Huo Yeshuo frowned slightly, as if he was somewhat dissatisfied with her attitude, and his tone became even more rigid: "No need."
After uttering those two words, he fell silent, and an eerie silence descended upon the surroundings.
Lin Zhenzhen looked up at him, her dark pupils like pebbles soaked in a mountain stream, clean, clear, and dazzlingly bright.
Huo Yeshuo turned his head somewhat awkwardly and said, "Take a look."
"Huh?" It took Lin Zhenzhen a moment to realize that he wanted her to look at her phone.
She swiped the screen, opened WeChat, and saw Xiaoling's messages pinned to the top.
Lin Zhenzhen clicked into the chat box, and after a short while, she looked up with a surprised expression.
