Chapter 120 I Wouldn't Want You to Wait Too Long
em to argue outside the ward, so she pulled Mo Gao along. "Tang Yu was already injured when they found him."Mo Gao turned his head to look at her, his eyes cold and mocking. "You actually believe thes...As soon as Junzhi's shepherd spoke, the phone on the counter suddenly rang.
...It was a call from the company. ...
Jun Zhi Mu picked up his phone, listening to the report on the other end with a cold expression. The few people in the ward immediately fell silent.
< Qiao Bao'er sat beside him, faintly hearing some broken sounds, ‘They need you back in China...’ >
"I'll be returning home tomorrow." Jun Zhimu finally replied, in a calm voice.
"Is something happening"
Qiao Bao'er looked at him, her brows furrowed slightly, a hint of worry in her eyes.
"It's nothing."
Jun always kept his work talk to a minimum with her.
"...Is it because the car accident affected the group..."
Qiao Bao'er was a little concerned and wanted to know more, but Jun Zhimu stopped her from asking further, "Go buy me lunch outside. I don't like the hospital food."
Her expression froze, her lips pressed together tightly, as she rose from the bed.
"Oh," she said with reluctance, and walked out.
"The shepherd, is Xiao Jie the only one in China who can withstand those opinions..."
Just as Qiao Bao'er reached the doorway, she overheard Xia Chui Xue seriously discussing company matters with him. "I've been paying attention to this too," he said, "We both suspect there's someone secretly manipulating the media..."
"Hao Ran told me last night too that they're under a lot of pressure domestically when it comes to what they say. Some have made inappropriate posts claiming that the &am;am; Group is in turmoil and changing leadership frequently, and some are even more absurd, directly writing that you're dead. It's just utter chaos."
"This matter really needs you to step in and put a stop to it..." Lu Qinnan's voice was somewhat irritated.
The door to the ward was slammed shut by Qiao Bao'er in a fit of anger.
They were discussing business, and she was indirectly dismissed, feeling a little down.
Why won't you tell me.
Although she was annoyed, she obediently left the hospital and went to a restaurant outside to pack takeout for Junzhi Mu. Seattle's Mercer Island is a well-known wealthy district with excellent surroundings and true green mountains and blue water.
Since Jun Zhimu had ushered her out, Qiao Bao'er simply sat on a chair outside the open-air restaurant, eating a small cake while admiring the scenery.
However, being alone in this unfamiliar city, even with the beautiful scenery, can be a bit melancholic.
...When had Zhi Mu ever suffered such grievances, seriously injured and unconscious He was asked to protect this woman, did she deserve it....
Yi Sicheng wouldn't have driven into Zhupi if it weren't for you, you fox spirit…
She suddenly remembered Jiang Meili's angry words.
Lowering his fork, he wore a somber expression, a hint of bewilderment in his eyes.
Suddenly, with a *thunk*, the clear surface of the lake on her left was disturbed by a small stone, bringing her back to reality.
Qiao Bao'er stood up, inexplicably as if she had understood something. She wanted to rush back to the hospital quickly, even if she was kicked out by Jun Zhimu, she didn't mind waiting outside the door.
However, when Qiao Bao'er went to the store to pay the bill, the waiter told her that the bill had already been settled.
A man paid for her.
Qiao Bao'er was stunned for a second, then someone else paid for her
"He, he is so tall, isn't his skin very white, and are his eyes azure blue..." She suddenly became nervous and grabbed the waiter's arm, asking insistently.
Noticing her anxiety, he quickly replied, "Yes, tall, blue eyes..."
Qiao Bao'er ran out in a hurry, looking around at the passersby and shouting anxiously.
"Little Column—"
"Little Column, I know it's you, come out..."
She shouted loudly in Chinese. Passersby out of curiosity stopped to look at her, and the restaurant waiter thought something major was happening so he rushed out too, "Miss, do you need help"
Jo Baoer ignored them, squinting her eyes and nervously scanning the surroundings.
There is none.
She carefully examined these unfamiliar faces, but found no one she was looking for.
"...You cheapskate! I only said one thing, that we wouldn't see each other again. You remember it for so long You're such a stubborn person, you pig!"
qiao Baoer angrily cursed at the lake in front of her, her expression a mix of anger, frustration, and guilt.
She had known him for a long time, so long that Qiao Baoer herself couldn't remember when they first met. Her grandfather said that even when she was just learning to walk, she was already bold enough to crawl up to him and snatch his toys.
They grew up together, attended the same kindergarten, elementary school, and middle school. They were even deskmates... But later they had a fight, and he was scolded by her and ran away.
After he turned and left that day, he was gone.
After that, she regretted it deeply and wanted to find him back, but she couldn't.
Her grandpa scolded her severely, and even her aunt reprimanded her. At that time, she was young and arrogant, putting on a haughty act and refusing to admit her mistakes, but secretly she kept the small wooden box he had given her. No matter where they moved, she carried it with her.
"Little Zhuzi hasn't been in touch with the Tang family these years. What if he met with an accident..." Suddenly, she thought of some bad things. He has autism and doesn't interact well with people.
I went back to the hospital for takeout, but I still didn't meet the person she was looking for.
"Jiao Bao'er, are you feeling wronged that I asked you to go out and buy lunch"
As soon as the elevator arrived, they ran into Lu Qinian at the entrance. Seeing Qiao Baier carrying a takeout bag and looking gloomy.
Qiao Bao'er was in a bad mood and gave him a disgruntled glance. "Have you guys finished discussing your big matters"
"What's wrong Are you sulking because Zhi Mu didn't let you know about the company stuff, and that's making you worry" Lu Qinan snorted, grumbling at her without any good cheer.
"Why are you women always getting yourselves into trouble He has his own way of handling things, just do your own job and that's it. Besides, even if I told you, you wouldn't understand."
"I know, I can't do anything to help." Qiao Baoer was in a bad mood.
She was a little annoyed and retorted with a snarky remark, walking straight past Young Master Lu and toward the ward.
Lu Qinan looked at her somewhat indignant back and raised his eyebrows, "Really angry"
Qiao Bao'er was angry, now she didn't know what she was angry about.
The door to the front ward was open, Xia Chui Xue was still in the room, "Tomorrow you return to your country and pay attention to safety…"
The man in the hospital room seemed to sense something, and suddenly raised his head to look towards the door.
Xia Chui Xue didn't turn back, a slightly awkward smile on her face. She also knew she should leave. Remembering something important at the last minute, she quickly asked.
"...Has there been any news about Tang Yu"
Qiao Bao'er stood outside the door, it seemed that the people inside were discussing something important. She didn't dare to go in and couldn't quite hear what they were talking about.
"I'm leaving now…"
To Joe Baoer's surprise, Xia Chuixue walked out in just two minutes with a smile on her face and greeted her.
"Have you finished talking Did I interrupt" Qiao Bao'er asked politely.
"As long as Zhi Mu wakes up, there's nothing major going on at the company. There is one thing… I'll ask him about it later."
She didn't elaborate, she looked at Qiao Bao'er in front of her, paused for a moment, and said with a playful smile, "Zhi Mu knows you're waiting outside, come in quickly." That smile seemed a bit stiff.watching them. 。His face flashed with surprise, he had excellent hearing and had just heard the two girls say, ' Qiao Bao'er, poor 。‘She, is short of moneyBecause the two people looking at each othe...
