PS: These two seemingly bland cards are actually fraught with crisis.
——
The news of Fang Yu’s resignation spread quickly throughout the hospital.
Li Dabai was the first to rush to the departnt of traditional Chinese dicine, hugging Fang Yu’s legs tightly and pleading earnestly, "Don’t go! Don’t go! What will I do if you leave..."
This left Fang Yu shaking his head in helplessness.
"Let go! Let go right now!"
Li Dabai didn’t care about that; he couldn’t stand the thought of his benefactor leaving.
Even the nurses ca over to persuade.
"Fang Yu, why resign when you are doing so well?"
"Yeah, if you leave, who will take charge of our hospital?"
"You are the treasure of Huada Hospital, you can’t leave!"
"Did you have a fight with Doctor Xu? Which couple doesn’t argue? I’ll talk to her for you soday."
...
Fang Yu was left with a headache by all this fuss, finally compromising, "I just ntioned it, why such a big reaction!?"
Hearing that Fang Yu wasn’t leaving, Li Dabai finally let go.
"Really?" Li Dabai wiped away his tears.
"With your IQ, could I even deceive you?"
"Hehe—" Li Dabai broke into a grin.
Sigh, Fang Yu sighed, this was just a delaying tactic.
There were matters to attend to in Yanjing, and he couldn’t just ignore them. Moreover, the Fang Family’s true enemies were also in Yanjing.
Blood debts had to be settled.
It was just a matter of ti.
...
Near the end of the workday, Xu Zhaopei, with a cold expression, arrived in front of Fang Yu’s duty room and said indifferently, "Weren’t you resigning? Let’s have a farewell dinner, the restaurant is already booked."
"Ah? So heartless? Not even trying to retain ?"
"Mount Everest Hotel. Tonight at seven, just you and ."
"—"
Hearing it was Mount Everest, and it was just the two of them, Fang Yu felt there was a conspiracy involved.
"Such an advanced hotel, are you sure?"
"No mistake."
Xu Zhaopei said, "Soone is paying for the al, you just need to show up."
"Soone is paying?" Fang Yu was puzzled. Was it because he had saved so many people that soone specifically invited him for a al?
"Aren’t we going together for the farewell dinner?" Fang Yu asked again.
"Farewell dinner?" Xu Zhaopei scoffed, adding, "That’s not happening!"
After work.
Xu Zhaopei drove, taking Fang Yu towards the Mount Everest Hotel.
...
Mount Everest Hotel.
It is one of the famous business hotels in Jiangzhou. Established in the 1980s, this five-star hotel, after over thirty years of operation, has beco one of the few top-tier famous hotels in Jiangzhou.
High floors, great facilities, excellent service, good environnt, high traffic—of course, high expenses too.
Any guest coming here is undoubtedly from a wealthy family, making tons daily, or a big na in the business world.
Inside the car.
"Peipei, can I say I’m the Marketing Director of the company? Being a doctor might seem a bit low-grade for you," Fang Yu said.
"Whatever."
"Never mind, I’ll just say I’m a doctor. The title ’Director’ is too big, it would be embarrassing if exposed."
Xu Zhaopei didn’t respond.
After exiting the car, they headed straight for the elevator.
As they pushed open the door, they were greeted by a grand scene—all the n in suits and oxfords, looking like successful elites, while the won were elegant and graceful. This didn’t look like sowhere to simply dine; it clearly had the feel of a high-society party.
"Yo? Miss Xu is here! Co, co, you’re late so you have to take three shots," a woman around Xu Zhaopei’s age greeted her with a wine glass in hand, her cheeks rosy and her almond eyes sparkling.
She walked straight over, her peripheral vision only flickering over Fang Yu, not even pausing for a second... In that mont, Fang Yu felt a strong sense of disdain and rejection.
Not just from this woman, but several nearby n, as if recognizing him, also showed scornful looks.
This glamorous woman in a shoulder-revealing evening gown, her hair elegantly done, half her chest exposed, gave off a scent reminiscent of luxury.
What worried Fang Yu more was Xu Zhaopei dressed quite normally in contrast to the formally dressed others. What exactly was this occasion about?
"Fang Yu?"
Suddenly, from the crowd a surprised shout ca. Fang Yu turned and saw another young woman dressed in a stunning evening gown, holding a glass of red wine, looking at Fang Yu in utter shock.
Like the other won, her attire was luxurious and elegant, her eyes containing a mature depth. Her face bore a slight lancholy, visibly more composed than other won.
At first glance, Fang Yu recalled soone.
Shao Xin, the president of the student council at Jiangzhou No. 1 High School, the school’s top female student, a significant figure! Back then, she was the only peer who could stand on par with Fang Yu!
They were once rumored to be the perfect golden boy and girl.
Sadly, back then Shao Xin was the teachers’ favorite student, a darling of heaven; on the contrary, Fang Yu was known as the bad student of the school, often fighting and causing trouble.
The two once competed fiercely in secret for the position of the student council president. Hence, they left deep impressions on each other.
But...
Why et an old classmate here?
Fang Yu couldn’t figure it out. After hearing the talk among the people present, it suddenly dawned on him—this wasn’t just any dinner. It was a class reunion!
"Shao classmate? Is it really you?" Fang Yu asked, still hardly believing it.
"It’s ! It was not easy finding you. So classmates said you were back, working at Hua University Hospital... It’s been a while since we all t, so we organized this reunion," Shao Xin said, her face full of surprise, "Over these years, we’ve had many reunions in Jiangzhou, always ntioning you. Where have you been? It was impossible to contact you."
"Just roaming around." Fang Yu knew no one would believe his adventures, so he kept it low-key, "On the other hand, Shao classmate, as the president of the student council, you’ve always been so prestigious, and entering society has earned you equal admiration!"
"I am nowhere near you in that regard; back then, no one could surpass your fa," Shao Xin said with a slight smile.
"Just ssing around..." Fang Yu modestly replied, "By the way, what’s your relationship with Peipei?"
Shao Xin smiled, "Xu Zhaopei was my junior in high school, we often helped each other." "Did Shao classmate co here alone?" Fang Yu asked from the side.
"Yes," Shao Xin nodded gently, her eyes briefly showing a hint of loss.
"That’s really a sha, I really would have loved to et the man who could marry such an outstanding woman as Shao classmate..." Fang Yu quipped.
Just after he said it, Xu Zhaopei elbowed Fang Yu.
She whispered, "Don’t ask ridiculous questions, Shao sister is currently single..."
"What do you an?" Fang Yu exclaid in surprise.
"You don’t know this?" Xu Zhaopei was truly moved by his lack of knowledge.
Fang Yu looked at Shao Xin in astonishnt, saying: "You couldn’t be divorced, could you?"
"——"
Hearing this inappropriate question, Xu Zhaopei deeply regretted bringing him along.
Does he ever think before speaking?
