"Miss Xia, I wish you a speedy recovery."
Lin Shen took the bouquet from his assistant and bent down to hand it to Xia Wenxi.
A man in a crisp black suit presented her with flowers, and Xia Wenxi suddenly felt as if she were honorably wounded. Lin Shen was the representative sent by her workplace to offer her condolences, and he was quite handsome at that.
"thank you."
Xia Wenxi looked up at Xia Wensheng, then at Lin Shen, smiled, accepted the flowers from his hand, and thanked him.
Lin Shen suddenly remembered some rumors he had heard about this Miss Xia in front of him, but after seeing her before and after today, he felt that the rumors might not be true.
Today he came to the hospital to visit President Hua of Sain Technology, but he didn't expect to run into Xia Wensheng here. At first, he thought Xia Wensheng was also here to visit President Hua, but it turned out that Xia Wensheng's sister was hospitalized.
Recently, Hengyuan Group and the Lin family have expressed their intention to cooperate, so Lin Shen took the opportunity to ask his assistant to buy flowers and fruit baskets from the hospital entrance.
Lin Shen nodded slightly, "Then I won't disturb Miss Xia's rest any longer."
Xia Wensheng turned around to see the guest off. When he returned, he saw Xia Wenxi staring blankly at the flowers and fruit basket by the bedside. He explained, "The Lin family has been discussing a cooperation with Hengyuan recently, and they are in close contact. He heard that you were hospitalized here, so he came to visit you."
There are only a few VIP wards in the hospital, so it's not uncommon for them to be grouped together sometimes.
However, Xia Wenxi's reason was not that.
"Would it be very profitable to open a flower shop near a hospital?"
Her words made Xia Wensheng choke for a moment.
"You want to open a flower shop? Dad said you can go to a company to gain experience after graduation."
"The company?" Xia Wenxi shook her head frantically in her mind. "I'm not going to the company."
If everyone has money, who would want to work like a beast of burden? Besides, the biggest problem right now isn't what to do after graduation... but how to graduate.
"I think I might have to postpone graduation. I'll think about going to work for a company later."
Xia Wensheng had thought she was joking in the group chat before, but today it sounded like she was serious.
He frowned and said seriously, "What happened? Didn't you pass all your exams before?"
"Because of my graduation thesis... Is it serious to have to delay graduation?"
Xia Wenxi didn't think that much about it. She thought that for a family like the Xia family, it wasn't a big deal for their child to delay graduating from university, and they didn't expect their child to graduate and start working early.
"If you have a special status and even graduation is not going smoothly, it is easy for the media to make a fuss about it."
Xia Wenxi is an adopted daughter of the Xia family, which is not a secret in the circle.
Previously, when Xia Wenxi was admitted to the same school and major as him, the media praised the Xia family for treating their biological son and adopted daughter equally, providing them with the same education, and for making both children equally outstanding. During that period, even the stock price of Hengyuan Group rose significantly.
At this point, Xia Wenxi realized that if she were to delay her graduation because of her thesis, and the media or her rival company found out, they would definitely publicize it extensively, which would also have an impact on the company.
That's the market; any slight disturbance can have unexpected consequences.
"I..." Xia Wenxi thought for a moment and made an excuse, "I crammed for the exams before, and I didn't study hard in class. Now I have to write a paper, and I think it's too difficult. I don't know how."
No matter how lacking in academic content an undergraduate thesis may be, that's only for people in the field. She's an outsider; what right does she have to say such things?
Xia Wenxi had originally thought that if all else failed, she would postpone her graduation and try to find a solution, but now it seems that this approach is not advisable. Moreover, if it were to be revealed that she was postponing her graduation because she couldn't write her thesis, there might be rumors online that there was something wrong with her attending university.
"How about I hire a tutor?"
"I've never heard of a college student hiring a private tutor..."
Xia Wensheng subconsciously complained, but he couldn't think of any other solution. "How about this, have Assistant Feng follow you around recently and have him teach you the most important courses again, and also help you write your thesis as soon as possible."
"Assistant Feng is really that capable?!"
"I'm more than capable of teaching you."
"Oh, then remember to give them a raise."
Remembering those who dug the well when you drink the water, Xia Wenxi, despite being a rich second-generation, doesn't forget the hard-working people.
"The raise will be deducted from your allowance."
!!
Xia Wensheng, a born capitalist!
While the brother and sister were talking, Feng Yue stayed at the door of the ward. Xia Wensheng made a phone call to him and told him about the tutoring.
"Put company matters aside for now and focus on her. I'll give you a 20% raise. Think it over and give me your answer before you leave work tomorrow."
"No need, Mr. Xia! I agree!" Feng Yue was afraid that this good opportunity would be lost forever, so he immediately agreed.
With a 20% raise, he could finally afford the house he and his girlfriend had their eye on as their wedding home, which they thought was too expensive.
"Okay, it's settled then, let's start tomorrow. Xia Wenxi, you'll be discharged tomorrow morning, and you'd better study hard in the afternoon! Feng Yue, you don't need to go to the company starting tomorrow, just go home."
"Yes, Mr. Xia!"
—Knock knock knock
"Hello, Miss Xia, it's time for dinner."
A pretty nurse pushed the food cart in, and Xia Wenxi's eyes lit up immediately. She hadn't eaten anything since she entered the hospital except for receiving an IV drip. She had vomited up the food she ate in the early morning, and she was starving.
Xia Wensheng looked at his sister's burning eyes, then at the nurse, and began to suspect that Xia Wenxi might have changed her orientation due to too much trauma.
Xia Wenxi was as eager as she saw the nurse come in, but as desperate as she saw the food.
Her words are more savory than this dish.
"Ms. Xia, you just had gastroenteritis, so it would be better for you to eat something light now."
"OK, thanks."
Xia Wenxi resignedly wiped her hands and picked up the spoon.
A light diet is better than starving.
"Then I won't disturb your meal any longer."
Before leaving, I didn't forget to remind you, "If you gentlemen are family members, the hospital cafeteria also provides meals. If you would like, you can go to the family cafeteria for a meal."
Xia Wenxi looked at Xia Wensheng and Assistant Feng and said to them, "If you have nothing else to do, you can go back now."
With VIP pricing comes VIP service. The hospital provides two caregivers for each VIP ward, and family members are not needed to be there at night. Besides, she only has gastroenteritis and is mobile, so she doesn't need anyone to take care of her. The housekeeper even wanted to bring someone from home, but she refused.
"Okay, call me if anything comes up."
After spending the afternoon together, Xia Wensheng felt that Xia Wenxi was much more normal than before. If his sister continued like this, Xia Wensheng would still be willing to be a good older brother.
"Okay, I will."
Xia Wenxi also received Xia Wensheng's signal to break the ice.
