Chapter 9

Ye Linfeng did not miss a single word Wang Yi had said. She turned around with a conceited smile and said to them, “There’s no room for you to even be jealous if my brother-in-law were to choose me. And wipe off the disgusting saliva at the corner of your mouth! Have you seen yourselves in the mirror? With looks like that, you think my brother-in-law would be interested? Stop aiming at the moon!”

“Y-you…!” Color rose up to Wang Yi’s neck as she slammed a hand on the table. “Ye Linfeng, don’t think that you can get away with being so arrogant just because you’re the president’s niece!”

“Yeah! And we’re your colleagues, there’s no need for such horrible words!” Lu Rongyan could not help joining in.

But Ye Linfeng looked absolutely pleased with herself and said, “I am arrogant! So what? What can you do about it? Beat me up?”

Wang Yi was choking with anger and had almost gone up to her to do just that. Fortunately Qin Muchu held her back and quietly advised her. “Stay calm! We might lose our internship if we really do anything to her. She’s not worth losing the big picture for.”

What Qin Muchu had said made sense.

Wang Yi was not that irrational a person, so after hearing Qin Muchu’s advice, she bit back her tongue and swallowed her anger. Instead, she angrily grabbed the patients’ records on the table and stormed out of the office without forgetting to glare at Ye Linfeng, saying as she went, “What are you so cocky about? You’re just a decoration! And if anything were to really happen, you’ll be in for a treat!”

The room went silent.

The disturbance in the office finally came to a close with Wang Yi gone from the room.

Several cases of car accidents swarmed into the emergency ward in the afternoon, leaving Qin Muchu no time for herself, until evening near dinner time, only then did things slow down.

She held onto her notebook and some patients’ records as she walked out of the patients’ ward and waited in front of the elevator to return to her office.

Her mind was occupied with the medical conditions of her previous patient until the lift dinged and the elevator doors opened.

Qin Muchu moved to enter but stopped in her tracks when she saw the two people in the lift. It was as if her legs had turned to lead, she was stuck to her spot, not moving an inch.

Inside the lift, was none other than…

Lou Sichen!

Qin Muchu was shocked, stunned even, for a few seconds, doubting her own eyes!

The man was clad in a white lab coat, paired with a dark suit, his figure tall and striking.

Soft light shone through the glass windows on the corridor, casting a veil of golden light onto his impressive features. His good looks were unrivaled.

Standing in the light, his disposition was cold and proud, yet there was an air of distinction as if he were a noble being above all else. An air that made others flinch, putting him clearly out of reach.

At that moment, he was having a quiet conversation with a young lady next to him, a slight smile played on his cool, thin lips.

Qin Muchu had only just recognized the young lady next to him to be no other than the president’s daughter, Cheng Xuanying!

The two seemed awfully close.

Qin Muchu stared at them blankly as she recalled the gossips she had heard from Wang Yi earlier that afternoon.

It’s him!

This is such a small world! People just meet each other everywhere!

The image before her was burned into her memory and was blinding to watch.

Thankfully the elevator doors had started closing without her getting on in.

That was fortunate!

She breathed a sigh of relief, only to realize that the hand clutching onto her notebook was slightly damp with sweat.

Before she could leave, the elevator doors swung open again the very next second.
