ADMINISTRATION

CHAPTER 201 - TAKE ME WITH YOU NEXT TIME

Ann Xiaomo and Shen Mofann walked into the school hand in hand. His face was brimming with a happy smile. Shen Mofann also seemed very happy.

However, Ann Xiaomo still didn't understand. Happy times are always short. These words weren't made up by the adults.

Ann Xiaomo!

Before the two of them reached the resting room, Zhang Suyu, who had been waiting at the door for the whole afternoon, stood angrily at the door with his hands on his waist. Finally, he blocked the way for the two who had sneakily run out.

Crap.

Shen Mofann was the first to react. The smile that was hanging on her face instantly disappeared without a trace. She quickly waved her arm, ready to throw Ann Xiaomo's hand away.

Don't be afraid, I'm here.

Looking at Zhang Suyu who was standing there, Ann Xiaomo did not know where he got the courage from. In short, he did it.

Holding Shen Mofann's slightly sweating hands tightly, for the first time, Ann Xiaomo felt that he should stand up for someone he liked.

He was a man, just like his father. Every time his mother was bullied by his grandmother, his father would hold her like this. The hand that stood beside her, protecting her.

Ann Xiaomo's gaze became firmer. Shen Mofann raised her head and looked at him blankly. She felt like there was a little rabbit stuck in her heart as she jumped around non-stop.

Shen Mofann, you've got guts! Hurry and get over here!

Seeing that Shen Mofann didn't react at all, Zhang Suyu burst out. This afternoon, he ran back from the field and wanted to find Ann Xiaomo and Shen Mofann for lunch, but who knew, both of them had disappeared.

He spent the whole afternoon trying to find a place in the academy. In the end, he found out from his teacher that they had gone out to eat together.

Originally, he was angry that Ann Xiaomo didn't bring him along, but Shen Mofann still resisted him at this time. Zhang Suyu instantly felt that he was unnecessary in front of these two.

Plus, he noticed the two of them tightly holding hands just now. As an older brother's instinctive reaction, Zhang Suyu wouldn't be happy.

The corners of his mouth drooped solemnly. His originally cute face was suddenly filled with a fierceness that should not have belonged to his age.

Don't scare Fan Fan, come at me if you dare!

The first thing Ann Xiaomo did was to pull Shen Mofann behind him. When he said those words, he felt like a superhero bravely protecting his beloved.

Sure.

However, he only experienced this moment as a super hero. Before he could figure out what to do, Zhang Suyu had already angrily walked over from the entrance of the resting room.

You, go in.

Just when he walked in front of the two of them, Zhang Suyu pointed at Shen Mofann's nose and ordered.

I …

Shen Mofann obviously mustered up the courage to refuse him, but when she saw Zhang Suyu who was so angry before, she immediately felt discouraged.

Big brother …

Shen Mofann's pitiful look made Zhang Suyu's heart soften. Just as his expression was about to ease up, Ann Xiaomo opened his mouth again to ruin the atmosphere.

It's fine, Fan. You go in first, I'm here.

Ann Xiaomo smiled at the frightened Shen Mofann beside him and comforted her with his gentle eyes and warm little hands.

Zhang Suyu's expression turned even more unsightly. He was still young. Although he didn't know what a light bulb was, he could still feel that he was a little unnecessary here.

Shen Mofann looked at him worriedly, but Ann Xiaomo nodded firmly at her.

She had no choice but to return to the lounge alone. The moment Shen Mofann entered, Zhang Suyu instantly rushed in front of Ann Xiaomo.

Why didn't you bring me out to eat!

Zhang Suyu's expression was angry and aggrieved. Ann Xiaomo even felt that he might cry out in the next second.

Zhang Suyu was sulking over this matter throughout the entire afternoon. He didn't even eat much for lunch.

Could it be that Uncle Huo didn't like him? Thinking about this, Zhang Suyu's mood instantly dropped a lot.

Zhang Tianze had always been very serious with him, almost not knowing how to communicate with him or how to smile, let alone play with him.

Therefore, when Zhang Suyu saw how Huo Chengshen treated Ann Xiaomo, he could not help but feel envious in his heart.

He had thought that as long as he behaved obediently and was pleasing to the eyes, he would be able to receive some of the same care and concern from Huo Chengshen.

However, what happened today at noon was obviously a huge blow to him.

It's not that I don't want to bring you along, it's that …

Ann Xiaomo couldn't bear to hurt his feelings. He knew that Zhang Suyu had always liked his father, but he seemed to have acted a little too excessively.

My dad didn't find you for a while, so he took us there.

Zhang Suyu was surprised for a moment. A trace of surprise flashed across his face. However, he still coughed lightly and said stubbornly.

Really, you're not lying to me?

Of course it's true. My dad also said it's a pity you didn't come this time.

Really!

Upon hearing Ann Xiaomo mention Huo Chengshen, Zhang Suyu's mood instantly changed from cloudy to sunny.

Looking at his happy expression, Ann Xiaomo also smiled. It seemed that his father was really important to him.

However, if you don't bring me along next time, don't blame me for going home and telling my father, hmph!

Zhang Suyu realized that he was overjoyed. He immediately retracted his hand and returned to his serious expression as he softly threatened Ann Xiaomo.

Although Ann Xiaomo knew he was just being stubborn, he was still a bit scared. If his dad knew about it, then Shen Mofann would have gone to another class.

I'll definitely bring you with me next time.

Hearing him say that, Zhang Suyu finally smiled in relief. The two of them returned to being good friends and returned to the resting room together.

However, after Ann Zhimo and Huo Chengshen left, Xiaoxi returned to her desk. Just as she was about to turn on the computer to do her work, a sharp pain suddenly came from her abdomen. Her forehead was instantly covered in sweat.

It was as if someone had stabbed a needle into the nerves in her abdomen, and her body curled up into a ball like a shrimp.

Pain came one after another. Xiaoxi clenched her teeth with great effort to prevent herself from screaming. She struggled to pick up the phone beside her hand and called Bai Han to ask for a leave of absence.

Hearing her painful voice on the phone, Bai Han couldn't help but look outside worriedly.

CHAPTER 202 - ACCEPT MATCHMAKING

As expected, he immediately saw Xiaoxi curled up in front of his desk.

Bai Han immediately gave a fake account. Although Xiaoxi and Ann Zhimo had just arrived at the company, it was fortunate that Bai Han was a loyal person. As long as Bai Han was a staff member, he would take responsibility for them.

After hanging up, he came out of the office and supported the sweating Xiaoxi. When he saw her pale lips, Bai Han frowned slightly.

Come on, I'll take you to the hospital.

With that, Bai Han carried her in his arms. Xiaoxi naturally refused in her heart, but she didn't have the strength to do the same.

None of the colleagues who were working noticed the change in Xiaoxi until Bai Han suddenly came out and picked her up.

Oh my god …

A few female employees could not help but exclaim. They did not expect these two interns to have such a background.

Ann Zhimo, who was always silent, turned out to be the wife of Huo Chengshen. It was said that Xiaoxi, who had already gotten married, was hugged by a princess by her boss.

They hurriedly swallowed their saliva. It seemed that they had to treat these two better in the future.

As she was hugged by Bai Han, Xiaoxi felt that the pain in her abdomen wasn't as severe as before, and her consciousness also cleared up a little.

Boss, I'm fine …

Alright, don't speak, just lie down.

I really …

You're not even going to listen to the boss' words?

Bai Han stared at her worriedly. He thought that this girl was too brave. Right now, she was so pale that she was like a virginity's twin sister. Yet, she could still say she was fine.

Even though Bai Han said so, Xiaoxi still felt that it wasn't right. Just as she was about to refuse him again, she felt another sharp pain and could only shut her mouth obediently.

Bai Han drove very fast. Xiaoxi, who was lying on the passenger seat, would let out a painful groan from time to time. Bai Han frowned even more.

He came to the best hospital in the city and got off. He rushed to the front door of the passenger seat and carried Xiaoxi into the emergency room.

Although Bai Han's influence was not as great as Huo Chengshen's, he was still a well-known figure in the city. The hospital director instantly recognized him and directly provided VIP services.

Mm …

Lying on the sickbed, Xiaoxi subconsciously bent down and covered her abdomen with her hands, groaning in pain.

Seeing her actions, the doctor seemed to have an answer in mind as he nodded thoughtfully.

He pressed his hand on the lower right side of Xiaoxi's abdomen lightly, causing her to cry out in pain.

It's acute appendicitis. The doctor stood up and looked at Bai Han, It's best if we perform the operation now.

Bai Han nodded. Just as he was about to go out and complete the procedures, Xiaoxi stopped him with difficulty.

No need …

Right now, she couldn't afford such an expensive hospital. Even if she wanted to do it, she would have to go to an ordinary hospital.

Don't worry about it. Just lie there and don't move.

Bai Han would never listen to her on this sort of thing. Without saying anything else, he directly ran out to complete the corresponding procedures.

There's going to be a nurse to take you to get ready.

The doctor looked at Xiaoxi amiably. Although he didn't know what relationship she had with Bai Han, but judging from Bai Han's nervous expression, he speculated that their relationship wasn't that simple.

Xiaoxi had no choice but to lie down and listen to the doctors and nurses. However, she didn't expect that she would have appendicitis.

When Bai Han was done with the procedures, Xiaoxi had been pushed into the operation room and the doctor had started the operation.

He breathed a sigh of relief and sat outside the door to the operation room, waiting quietly. However, his cell phone suddenly rang.

Hello, Mom?

When Bai Han saw the caller ID, he couldn't help but sigh. Once his mom called, it must be for one thing.

Son, your Aunt Wang has arranged a blind date between you and the young lady from M Company. You should make the time available this weekend.

That's right, every time Bai Han's mother called him, she would either come to urge him to find a girlfriend or to arrange a blind date for him.

Moreover, her attitude was always tough and unyielding. Of course, this time was no exception.

His mother hung up the phone without waiting for Bai Han to say no.

Really.

Bai Han complained in a low voice. Although he knew that his mother was worried, but could she at least discuss it with him a little? At the very least, she didn't need to have this kind of attitude.

However, when it came to blind dates, Bai Han once again thought of that ungrateful secretary. The corner of his mouth unconsciously raised a little. He took his phone and dialed her number.

What?

The phone rang for a while, then Liu Xin answered impatiently. She found that she hated Bai Han's more and more contact with her.

I can't call you if I don't do anything?

Yeah.

Liu Xin directly said it without thinking. She was so angry that Bai Han gritted his teeth.

Has Huo Chengshen returned to the company yet?

Not yet, by the way, what happened after that?

Liu Xin's tone became a lot more nervous. Bai Han suddenly felt uncomfortable with the way she treated him differently.

Therefore, he did not know what was going on with him. His brain twitched as he directly said.

You do care a lot about him.

Liu Xin was obviously stunned for a moment before she hurriedly found an excuse for herself.

He's my boss, isn't it normal for me to care about him?

True. Bai Han looked a little disappointed, He's doing very well. He and Ann Zhimo are doing very well. Not only did he not quarrel, but he even made some love in my meeting room.

Bai Han clearly knew these words would hurt Liu Xin, but he didn't know why. Perhaps he was purposely saying these words to test her attitude towards Huo Chengshen.

That's good.

As expected, Liu Xin's tone became weaker. Bai Han immediately regained his senses and tried to console her.

It's fine, since Huo Chengshen doesn't want you, why don't you follow me from now on?

Bai Han didn't feel like there was anything wrong with his words, but Liu Xin heard it clearly.

Director Bai, I do like Director Huo, but I know that he already has a family so I naturally won't do those heartless things. However, if you think that I'm a casual woman just because I like Director Huo, then you're wrong!

With that, Liu Xin angrily hung up the phone. Bai Han was also confused by her sudden accusation, and his heart was set ablaze with a nameless fire.

CHAPTER 203 - ENEMIES HAVE A NARROW ROAD

Since when had he, Bai Han, been so eager to get along with a woman? Not to mention which woman he was willing to work for?

However, not only did this Liu Xin not appreciate his kindness, she even criticized him for his tone. Did she really think that she was some goddess who had descended to the mortal world?

Bai Han was so angry that he wanted to throw the phone on the ground. However, he suddenly remembered something and dialed another person's number.

Hello?

Hey, mom, the blind date you said just now …

Little Han, it's not that Mom is talking about you, but you're already so old. You should have gotten married a long time ago, I'm …

Bai Han's mother subconsciously thought that he was here to reject the blind date, so she directly tried to persuade him.

I accept.

The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly disappeared for two seconds. Then, Bai Han heard his mother's voice. There was an uncontrollable joy in his voice.

Give me the time and address, and the man's information.

Alright, alright. I'll have someone send it over to you right now.

After hanging up, Bai Han suddenly felt that his vengeful behavior was much faster than he imagined.

Although he knew that even if Liu Xin knew that he was going on a blind date, she wouldn't have much of a reaction.

At this moment, the lights in the operation room were turned off, and the doctor from before walked out.

How is it?

It was a success. Next, I only need to rest for a week.

After thanking the doctor, Bai Han saw Xiaoxi being pushed out. He quickly went over and looked at her with concern.

How is it? Does it still hurt?

Xiaoxi still looked weak, but she had recovered some of her strength. She smiled gratefully at Bai Han and said.

Thank you, boss. I will pay for the surgery and hospitalization.

Alright, alright, why are you so strong? Never relying on a man? "

Bai Han joked with Xiaoxi, but Xiaoxi's expression dimmed a little. Bai Han didn't expect it to be like this and asked in disbelief.

I've really never relied on it before?

Xiaoxi didn't say anything and only smiled faintly, tacitly agreeing.

For so long, she had always relied on herself to support herself. Although she had placed her hopes on men, it was clear that she made the wrong decision as her eyes darkened.

Forget it. Even if you've never relied on it before, I'll take it as an experience today. It'll be good once in awhile. After you've recovered, you can come back to work.

Xiaoxi couldn't help but burst out laughing as she muttered the words, A scrooge.

Bai Han purposely put on an angry look, making Xiaoxi chuckle again. However, there was still a wound on her abdomen. She felt a little bit of pain just by smiling a little.

Seeing her frown, Bai Han immediately became serious. He stopped teasing her and pushed her into her room.

After settling Xiaoxi down, Bai Han looked around. The VIP ward's environment wasn't bad, but some personal belongings weren't complete.

Give me your house key. I'll get you whatever you need in the next few days.

No need, just for a week. We just need to deal with him.

Bai Han stared at her speechlessly, Woman, why aren't you cute at all? Give me the key.

Xiaoxi had no choice but to tell him that the key was in her bag, but her bag was still in the company.

Lie down here and get a good night's sleep. I'll come back after I've given you your things.

Alright.

It was rare that Xiaoxi didn't refuse this time, but obediently accepted Bai Han's help. For a moment, she felt a sense of relief that she hadn't felt for a long time.

She didn't know how long it had been since someone took care of her like this. Of course, she wasn't saying that Zhang Yanbian was bad, she was just not used to trusting a man.

After all, she had already been completely disappointed in them, so it was hard to believe.

However, watching Bai Han leave in silence and watching him carefully close the door to her ward, Xiaoxi had an indescribable feeling in her heart.

If it was Bai Han, perhaps he could believe it again.

After he left, some of the remaining medicine had not been completely metabolized, so Xiaoxi quickly fell into a deep sleep.

However, before long, she was awakened by a loud noise.

I said, I want to stay in the VIP ward!

I understand, ma'am, but our VIP ward is full.

I don't care. I want to live here. This is it.

After she finished speaking, Xiaoxi heard the sound of someone opening the door to her ward. A woman with a big belly and dressed in gorgeous clothes walked in arrogantly.

Yo, look who this is.

Seeing the person in front of her, Xiaoxi's expression immediately darkened. However, when another person walked in, she really wanted to disappear from here.

Xiaoxi.

Chen Bowen looked at her in surprise. What's wrong with you?

He had never seen Xiaoxi as weak as she was now. In his mind, she had always been a strong woman, and she was also very decisive.

Seeing the concern in Chen Bowen's eyes, Chang Lele, who had a big belly, glared at him. She didn't care about the people in the room and directly pinched his arm.

Hiss —

Chen Bowen groaned in pain. However, since Chang Lele was already pregnant, he could only silently bear with it.

Chang Lele glanced at her unhappily, then turned around and walked to Xiaoxi's bedside, pretending to be concerned.

Aiya, what's wrong with you? Why did you come to the hospital?

Xiaoxi couldn't help but sneer in her heart. She probably couldn't wait for the end of her life to come, as she had already contracted some terminal illness.

It's nothing. I had an operation.

So it's like that. Aiya, even you don't know how nice it is for me and Bowen to come and see you.

Xiaoxi smiled stiffly. Even if I don't say it, haven't you guys already appeared?

But even if you did, we might not have the time.

Chang Lele said as she proudly touched her already obvious belly. She looked at Chen Bowen happily and took his arm.

You can see that I already have Bowen's child.

Chen Bowen seemed to be dissatisfied with Chang Lele's deliberate actions. However, he didn't dare to directly resist and could only look at Xiaoxi in embarrassment.

Congratulations.

Xiaoxi stared coldly at the two men in front of her. She really wished that the operation she had just performed was on her eyes. That way, she wouldn't have to witness such a disgusting scene.

Then we'll leave today. You don't have to worry about me telling Bowen to come see you again. I know there won't be anything between the two of you. After all, he's already a father.

CHAPTER 204 - I'M HER BOYFRIEND

Chang Lele kept emphasizing the fact that she was pregnant, as if her belly, which was the size of a ball, wasn't obvious enough.

Looking at the proud expression on her face, Xiaoxi suddenly felt wronged.

Looking at Chen Bowen's helpless yet indifferent expression, Xiaoxi's mind suddenly flashed with the scene of her capturing Chen Bowen and cheating on him.

The situation was exactly the same as it is now. The only difference is that Xiaoxi is now lying here, while Chang Lele is standing beside Chen Bowen.

Bowen.

Xiaoxi! Xiaoxi suddenly called Chen Bowen's name. In an instant, Chang Lele, who was ready to leave proudly, immediately stopped.

Congratulations, you are about to become a father. I still remember that we had planned this too. You said you must have two children, a boy and a girl. Now, although the person standing next to you is not me, I still hope that you can be happy.

Chen Bowen didn't expect Xiaoxi to suddenly say such affectionate words. Even when they split up, Xiaoxi didn't shed a single tear.

He stood rooted to the spot, not knowing how to reply. That's right, he was the one who cheated, he was the one who betrayed them. Moreover, he had always felt deeply guilty about this matter.

Thinking of this, Chen Bowen suddenly let go of Chang Lele's hand. Chang Lele, who was beside him, stared at him in disbelief.

Chen Bowen looked at Xiaoxi with determination. Maybe he missed a chance to apologize, but this time, he didn't want to miss it again.

Xiaoxi, I …

Chen Bowen, shut up!

However, the moment Chen Bowen said that, he was immediately interrupted by the furious Chang Lele behind him.

Her face and neck started to turn red from anger. Without any hesitation, she dragged Chen Bowen to her side, then pointed her index finger at Xiaoxi and said viciously.

I'm warning you, don't think that you can take the chance to act pitiful just because you're lying on the sickbed. Back then, it was you who lacked the ability to keep Bowen by your side. You can only blame yourself.

Xiaoxi looked coldly at the hysterical her. She was calm without a single ripple in her heart. That's right, she said those words on purpose to provoke Chen Bowen.

However, she wasn't sure if Chen Bowen still had a conscience and would react to her words.

Now it seemed that, fortunately, she had made the right gamble.

Lele, enough.

Chen Bowen tugged on Chang Lele's hand. However, when Chang Lele saw that he not only didn't help her, but also defended her, she couldn't help but hate Xiaoxi any more.

I say, what happened to her? Do you know how heartbreaking it is now? Do you now know regret? If you don't want me to say something like that, I'm going to tell you!

Chang Lele's temper was no worse than Xiaoxi's. Especially now, when she was still pregnant, she was several times more sensitive than usual.

The noise from the room penetrated the door of the ward, carried outside into the corridor, and into the ears of one of the people.

Let me tell you, you better stay away from my husband. If I find out what happened to you, I'll definitely be rude to you!

The hatred in Chang Lele's eyes was real, and what she said was also true. She had already bet everything on Chen Bowen, so she definitely wouldn't allow any mistakes.

However, Xiaoxi had always been a strong woman. Even though she was currently lying on the sickbed, the aura she emitted could still compete with Chang Lele's.

Just as the two of them were threatening each other with their gazes, the door to the ward was suddenly pushed open again.

Chen Bowen was the first to turn around. He saw a man walking in. He wore a black suit, a dark blue tie, and a handsome face.

Chang Lele was stunned for two seconds when she saw him. Not only her, even Chen Bowen couldn't believe that there was such a suitable man for a suit.

Darling, what happened?

Zhang Tianxiang looked at the two standing in front of him in confusion and then walked to Xiaoxi's side naturally.

Xiaoxi didn't know what to do with this handsome stranger who had suddenly appeared in front of her and called her darling.

When her drifting eyes met with Zhang Tianxiang's deep eyes, Zhang Tianxiang blinked slightly and Xiaoxi finally received his message.

Nothing, just two old friends.

Old friend?

Seeing that his' partner 'had successfully taken over the scene, Zhang Tianxiang immediately entered the state of mind. He stood beside Xiaoxi and looked at Chen Bowen and Chang Lele warily.

I thought I heard you guys arguing?

Xiaoxi didn't say anything. Instead, she did what any weak female protagonist in a TV show would do.

She silently tilted her head to the side, as if she didn't want Zhang Tianxiang to see a tear drop fall from her cheek, and Zhang Tianxiang saw everything.

I don't know who you are, and I don't want to pursue what happened just now. Anyway, Xiaoxi needs some rest, so please get out of here first.

His words sounded very fitting, but it didn't lose any edge. Chen Bowen never expected Xiaoxi to find such a boyfriend, and Chang Lele was so angry that her face almost turned green.

Although Zhang Tianxiang had clearly ordered her to leave, Chang Lele wasn't willing to leave. Just as she was talking about her excitement, she was interrupted by Zhang Tianxiang's appearance.

You're her boyfriend?

Chang Lele asked even though she already knew the answer. What if this person was her distant cousin?

That's right, I also heard what you just said to my girlfriend.

Zhang Tianxiang stared at Chang Lele fearlessly. He frowned slightly, as if trying his best to endure Chang Lele's ignorance.

Since it's like this, then please look after your girlfriend. Please don't let her bother my husband again.

Xiaoxi couldn't help but clench her teeth when she heard this. She was clearly the mistress, yet she still dared to say such words so brazenly.

Entangled?

Zhang Tianxiang couldn't help but sneer. He then glanced at Chen Bowen, who had remained silent the whole time. He couldn't help but think, isn't this man a bit too useless?

I believe our family's Xiaoxi has no problems with her eyesight.

Xiaoxi couldn't help but curl her lips. That's right. Compared to Zhang Tianxiang, Chen Bowen simply didn't have any feelings for him. How could someone abandon the handsome guy beside him and pester the ungrateful one?

CHAPTER 205 - COINCIDENCE

Chang Lele was so angry that she couldn't speak. Zhang Tianxiang's condition was really good. She snorted disdainfully, held Chen Bowen's hand and walked out.

Before he left, Chen Bowen would look back at Xiaoxi from time to time, but he still couldn't say the words of apology.

The moment the door to the ward was closed, Xiaoxi let out a breath of relief. She couldn't help but take a deep breath. Once they left, the air was refreshed.

So, who are you?

However, she hadn't forgotten that there was another suspicious person by her side. Xiaoxi tilted her head and looked at him. Strangely, even though this was her first time meeting this person, she didn't feel the slightest bit scared or nervous.

Was it because he had helped her earlier? Or could it be that this person exuded a very intimate aura?

Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself.

With that, Zhang Tianxiang tidied up his collar and smiled at Xiaoxi.

I am Zhang Tianxiang, the nephew of Zhang Yanbian, Zhang Tianxiang.

You're Yanbian's nephew?

Xiaoxi looked at him in disbelief. However, after hearing what he said, she really felt that the person in front of her was similar to Zhang Yanbian.

That's right. Although we haven't met officially, I've often heard my uncle mention you. I only entered the ward when I saw your name at the door.

Xiaoxi nodded in realization. If that was the case, everything made sense. She almost thought that Zhang Tianxiang was the one left behind by Bai Han to protect her.

So, how is Aunt? Why is she hospitalized?

After the two of them revealed their identities, the atmosphere between them became warm. Zhang Tianxiang simply pulled a chair over and sat beside Xiaoxi's bed.

It's nothing, appendicitis. I had a minor operation.

Where's my uncle? What did he do? Does he know about this?

Zhang Tianxiang frowned as he looked at Xiaoxi. In fact, he already had the answer in his heart. Zhang Yanbian should still be in the army right now, so he probably didn't know about this.

I can deal with this minor ailment myself. There's no need to alarm him.

As she said so, Xiaoxi didn't even notice the sadness and disappointment in her eyes, but Zhang Tianxiang had noticed it.

He sighed to himself. There was no helping it, this was the fate of a soldier's family. Since he had chosen this person, it meant that he had to be strong by himself most of the time.

In that case, I should do my duty as a nephew and let me take care of you in the next few days.

After saying that, Zhang Tianxiang stood up from his chair and prepared to clean up the room.

No need, no need. My friend will take care of me. Besides, it's not like I can't do big surgery and won't need the help of others.

This …

There's really no need for that. I'll call my friend and ask her to come over.

As she said that, Xiaoxi immediately reached for the phone on the table. She was really not used to troubling others. Moreover, this person was Zhang Yanbian's nephew.

After taking her cell phone, she immediately dialed Ann Zhimo's number. The other party seemed to have been waiting in front of the phone, and before the beep could ring, Ann Zhimo had already answered the call.

Xiaoxi, where did you run off to!

Ann Zhimo frowned anxiously. When she returned to the company, she found that everyone was looking at her in a completely different light.

He had originally wanted to seek some comfort from Xiaoxi, but who would've thought that Xiaoxi's seat would be empty?

She had no way to stay in the office by herself, so she could only take her phone and run out. Just as she was about to call Xiaoxi, she called herself.

I'm in the hospital.

Ah!? What's wrong with you! Which hospital is it, I'll go see you!

Hearing that Xiaoxi was in the hospital, Ann Zhimo's heart leaped into her throat. She was an iron woman, she would never get sick. Why did she suddenly run to the hospital?

Mm, you can do it, I'm …

After telling Ann Zhimo the hospital's name and ward number, Xiaoxi hung up. Then, she looked at Zhang Tianxiang with a smile and said.

She's coming.

Zhang Tianxiang saw that he didn't have any better words to say, so he could only nod. Although he didn't insist on taking care of Xiaoxi, he still said that he would wait until her friend came.

Xiaoxi naturally wouldn't refuse. They sat together and started to talk about family matters, most of which were related to Zhang Yanbian.

From Zhang Tianxiang's words, Xiaoxi understood that he had always been a person with a stern expression.

However, Zhang Tianxiang also said, although Zhang Yanbian seemed to be very serious, but every time after he punished someone, he would secretly run over to observe the situation.

Sometimes, he would even feel regret and blame himself for the excessive punishment, and finally find a variety of reasons to remove the punishment.

Xiaoxi seemed to have realized this as well. That's right, he was such a person. He was obviously gentle and gentle in the bones, yet he would rather die than show his face.

The two chatted happily, not noticing that the sun outside the window had already begun to set, until Ann Zhimo came running into the room in a flurry.

Xiaoxi!

She ran to Xiaoxi's side and used her hands and eyes to examine her body. Soon, she discovered the wound on her stomach.

What's going on!?

I'm fine. Calm down first.

Looking at Ann Zhimo who was on the verge of tears, Xiaoxi smiled helplessly. However, her eyes were filled with love and adoration. She really was a silly girl.

It's just an acute appendicitis. The operation has been completed, so everything is fine now.

Hearing this, Ann Zhimo finally relaxed. She let out a long breath and almost collapsed on the side of Xiaoxi's bed.

You scared me to death. How did you suddenly get appendicitis? You must be eating at home, right!?

Ann Zhimo criticized Xiaoxi like a little parent, but her hands kept covering her with blankets. Her tone was full of pain.

Let's not talk about this first. Come, this is Zhang Tianxiang, Yanbian's nephew.
